Luffy awoke the next morning to Robin sitting in the corner of the room with Zoro.

Zoro had a huge blush on his face and was speaking.

"-Like you alot."

Luffy's eyes burned and she threw herself out of bed, running out the door sobbing with a surprised Chopper in her arms.

Zoro looked where Luffy had just run. "Luffy...?" Then it clicked. "Shit! Luffy!" He lept out of his chair running out the door, while thinking about what had happened that morning.

Flashback

Zoro had awoken with Luffy in his arm's totally content, when Robin came in and walked right to the bookshelf.

"So Zoro-san, have you told her yet?"

Zoro slowly slipped away from the sleeping Luffy. "No."

Robin gave him a sly smile. "For shame. Care to practice?"

Zoro blushed. "I... I suppose."

Robin sat down with the book in her lap and did a near perfect imitation of Luffy's female voice.

"Hi Zoro~! Wacha doin?" And then she proceeded to hold in giggles, whether there were fake or not Zoro could not tell.

"Luffy I need to tell you something important... I... I like you alot."

End Flashback

Zoro ran out and his head swiveled around the deck looking for Luffy and Chopper.

A voice flooded his head. It was gummy.

'You idiot! What did you think would happen when you climbed out of bed!?'

'I'm sorry, she is usually a very heavy sleeper!'

'You are why she was asleep at all!' At that point Zoro swore he got punched in the head again.

Zoro was just about to run off and look when Nami called everyone to the front of the ship.

"Damn..." Zoro shook his head and recomposed himself, before walking to the front of the ship, resting his hand on the hilts of his swords.

Everyone was at the front of the ship, with Luffy at the front, and Sanji where Zoro usually stands at Luffys left, Nami on her right, Franky in between Sanji and Nami, and everyone else scattered around.

"The one eyed pirates are going to pass by us, we need to be extremely careful, they are known for destroying other pirates, and they never attack the innocent." Nami said looking at a wanted poster. "There capitan has a bounty of $500,000,000 berri."

Luffy nodded, still holding Chopper. She looked over at the ship. It's mast was a bluish gray color with a white skull with a scar around the left eye. The boat itself was mostly green, but there were patches of a golden yellow in strips.

They watched as the ship got closer, and just as the head's started to pass Luffy yelled, scaring all her other crewmates.

"Heyyyyy!" She yelled. "How you doing!?"

Nami face palmed. "Luffy, you are and idiot."

On the other ship there was movement and all the Mugiwaras got ready, save for Luffy, for an attack, only to be surprised.

"Hey!" A girl who was a bit taller then Luffy with long light blue hair and was in capris and a t-shirt jumped onto the head of her boat and waved. "I'm doing great! Wanna come aboard?"

Nami jumped in front of Luffy. "Are you capitan?"

The blue haired girl blinked. "No. I'm first mate, but I might as well be captain, he is a moron."

Luffy laughed. "I like you!" But she then sobered up. "But I want to meet your capitan. Sanji! Bring me the best rum we have."

Sanji blinked but nodded and ran off to get the rum.

The girl watched Sanji leave. "So you are capitan correct?" The girl said looking back to Luffy.

Luffy sprouted a grin as she stepped forward. "I am Monky D. Luffy, and I'm going to be king of the pirates!"

The girl laughed. "You are pretty cool! I'm Hilda, and I plan on spreading joy everywhere I go! So, was he your first mate?" she said pointing to where Sanji was walking back.

Luffy looked at Sanji and pointed. "You mean Sanji?"

"Yeah!"

"Shishishi! Nope! That's Zoro!" Luffy turned her body to where Zoro would normally be standing and then saw him hanging back, and then remembered what she head when she woke up, and a small tear tried to build up on the sight of him. She shook her head and pointed at him before turning back to Hilda. "That's him!"

Luffy watched as Hilda looked him over, before smiling. "He looks strong, but do you think he could beat me?"

Without a seconds hesitation and just as Sanji came back Luffy said "Other than me Zoro is the strongest we have on the crew!"

"WHAT!?" Sanji yelled.

Zoro smirked. "Take that love cook."

"Why you Shitty mar-"

"Sanji the rum!" Luffy snapped.

Sanji growled but handed Luffy the rum.

"Now." Luffy said turning to Hilda. "I want to meet you captain. Bring him to my ship."

Hildad nodded and ran off yelling something about dropping anchor.

"We need to drop our anchor and furl the sails." Nami said, before roaring orders.

After a good five minutes Hilda came back holding a large bottle. "Sorry I took so long, here is our rum." She held it out to Luffy, and Luffy nodded handing her the rum that Sanji grabbed, before giving it to Sanji to save.

Luffy then turned. "I'm going to take a quick bath." and started walking.

Zoro contemplated his options, before deciding that now was the best time to talk to Luffy.
