Chapter 11

The clouds very dark like it was going to snow, the wind blowing a little rough. The town was entirely dead, no one stepped outside for some sort of reason, The heart pirates and Sanji stayed asleep. Not a single person was outside, But that man was in the shadows watching, messing with the weather.

Law woke up feeling extra happy for the pleasant dream, he shivered looking at Bepo who was still sleeping. The Heart Pirates Captain stood up stretching, he walked off the ship curious as to why the place was awfully cold still. Wondering if this is how it was last night, but worse as he slept.

Intending to walk into the town, but he was stopped by a unpleasant presence. Turning his back against the town, he got on the boat with curiosity. Something was really off, a man with a cloak and a scar on his neck disappearing behind the white shirt stood right in front of him.

"Aokiji.. What the hell do you want?" he growled at the man, putting his hand on the hilt of his sword.

The man put his hands up "Whoa I just came to come talk with you. So get your hand off that hilt and relax." he said in a nonchalant way, making himself comfortable sitting on Bepo.

Law scowled, taking his hand off his hilt "Get off my navigator he isn't your chair, nor is he comfortable with your presence." he was irritated that he sat on Bepo, the polar bear smiled "Mmm it's so cold, make it colder Captain!" he said in a excited voice.

Than he realized it wasn't his Captain furrowing his brows "C-Cold? Wait Captain doesn't make things cold.. Ehh!? Aokiji-san!" he shouted in surprise, his eyes shooting open as he tried to get up.

But the Former Admiral put his weight on him "Stay still polar bear, I'll make it cooler for you." he said in a calm voice, Bepo stopped resisting "Okay. But make it extra cold please." he said in a defeated tone. Falling back into a slumber.

"See no need to worry, I just want to chat. So do you know where the Straw Hats are?" he asked, Law didn't know whether to be honest with him, he second guessed it before answering truthfully "No. Why what do you want with the Straw Hats." he asked defensively.

Bepo hummed "So cool.. Make it colder Aokiji-san, Captain I'm sorry I betrayed you it was so cold I couldn't resist." he said apologetically, Aokiji made it colder chuckling "Can't blame you, you're hairy.. I asked because I spotted them, wouldn't you like to reunite with that woman you bed down?" being considerate.

Law shivered from the cold, blushing by the choice of words the Icy man used. He turned his head to the side blushing more, wondering how much the Former Admiral had seen "Are you for real!? Were you always this creepy? Anyways why bother helping me, what objective do you have?" he asked embarrassed.

Aokiji laughed "I just might need your help in the future, geez try to sound a little happy. I never was creepy you guys are everywhere I go. I forgot to mention.. That woman would be happy too see you." teasing Law just a bit, the boy touched his forehead with his fingertips looking up at the sky.

He tried very hard to keep calm "Man do you have any idea how creepy you sound!? Don't ever, ever come and bother me with this… By the way where are they?" asking in a flat voice.

The Icy-man laughed "I'll use my Ice to lead you to them. Next time don't call me creepy you guys just happen to be around, oh and I think Zoro got an ear fill of the details, don't be surprised if he keeps you away from her." warning Law before he tries to happily reunite with her.

The words Aokiji spoke made the Captain aware of what he was about to deal with, he just nodded approving it. He was ready to try and get her heart back, thinking how he would deal with it.

Was the woman worth all the trouble? He knew that getting close to her was a big mistake, but he didn't stop himself.

All of the moments he spent with her before and then, had a huge impact on him. When Nami was running to him for help, he was going to deny her request, but when Eustass came in to take her away it made the man change his mind. Getting a closer look at her she was in no state to be around him, even if Eustass took her the way he tried too, Law would have searched for her.

What Eustass did was despicable and unforgiving she's a woman, no woman like her should've went through that. Thinking about the state she was in really made him sick, Nami did good seeking out for him, he couldn't understand why Nami meant something to him.

Law felt feelings for her, feelings he never thought of having. The navigator was so lucky to have his affection and love, it was something other women couldn't achieve. The bickering, argument's they had made their bond strong, while they were apart she was getting more confused. Nami did not want them to fight over her, she had specifically cleared that up with him.

The Surgeon Of Death didn't listen to his mind, he acted on impulsive feelings, the navigator drove him crazy inside. Not only crazy most likely insane, Law thought about how absurd it was. After all he didn't plan on getting close with her, he just planned on watching her from afar. All the man wanted was to crush in secrecy not get attached, but everything went down hill.

The feelings grew from them being apart no matter what, Luffy was never in the wrong, they both where. They did Luffy wrong and Nami was going to put an end to it, ending all her feelings for Law he didn't know if it was going to be the same.

Aokiji made a path for him to follow leading to the Straw Hats. A smug smile appeared "Aren't you going to at least express a little gratitude for the nice gesture? After all without my help you would wait days till they all appeared." he was being boastful.

Law rolled his eyes "Thank you, don't ever show your face and refrain from spying freaking weirdo. Next time I see you, you better be in a pinch so I can pay the debt back." his voice menacing.

The dude laughed "The jokes,the jokes. God some of you pirates are hilarious." he was entertained by the group.

'I might just spy a little, and see where this relationship goes. So interesting the 2 supernovas actually in love with a beautiful woman, how fascinating.' he thought in amusement, he chuckled a bit "See you later, ahem soon." he said in mocking manner.

Law felt his irritation coming back, wanting to slice him already. Before Aokiji could leave Bepo grabbed his leg "Where do you think your going? I haven't had a fill of being cold sit now." his voice strong and deep.

The polar bears eyes were open, his expression serious, Aokiji felt a sweat drop form on his cheek "I got to leave w-what do you mean?" his voice losing composure. Law was about to speak "Captain stay out of it, this is a once in a lifetime feeling. I'll die without him for a Day and Night." Bepo had a devilish tone.

Law felt a sweat drop form "Bepo yo-" the bear held a hand up "This is my first and last defiance, I will refuse to let this man leave. I want it to be cold for once, my wish was to get a chance of being cold. Don't ruin it." his voice now deeper.

The captain sighed "Fine just for the Day and Night, I expect you too let him leave tomorrow morning." he said in defeat. The Former Admiral felt relieved 'I get the front seat of the love triangle, very astonishing I should get some popcorn ready.' he thought in excitement as he took a seat on the polar bear.

"I have to go get my crew, don't freeze my polar bear to death, or I'll take your heart and stab it 1,000 times." giving a warning with a cold gaze before jumping off, the Surgeon Of Death walked towards the village finding Sanji already making his way to the boat.

"Oi! Where's my crew Blackleg-ya?" asking the cook.

Sanji looked at him "You lucky bastard.. They were getting ready to head here, so I left without waiting why?" asking in curiosity.

Law walked towards him putting a arm over his shoulder "Stop saying I'm a lucky bastard, because I technically had fallen for her with no intention of doing so. Do you have any idea how hard it is to not go crazy and smash her body against mine? Refrain from ever saying it. And another thing a Icy-man is on my boat, so try not to battle it out with him. You will be the cause of my ship being humid & freezing and my polar bear in bliss, and unable to let him leave." he gave the warning fairly.

Sanji felt Law let go and watched him leave 'Icy? Who the hell is Icy?' he thought, now more curiosity filling him. The cook sky walked to the Heart Pirates ship, when he was in reach he seen the Icy man he was talking about.

"Why the hell are you here?" he shouted, dropping onto the ship startling Bepo "WERE UNDER ATTACK CAPTAIN WHERE'S AOKIJI-SAN!?" jumping up while yelling.

The Former Admiral fell off the bear landing on his head, Bepo looked everywhere spotting Aokiji on the floor "Oh there you are, stop fooling around and get back to making it cold." he ordered as he fell back down falling asleep.

Sanji yelled in frustration "Who the hell's fooling around!? It's you that's fooling around! How can you let that man sit on you casually!?" Aokiji felt a vein pop out in irritation sitting on the polar bear "Bepo you were the one that's fooling around, I was here the whole time." he said nonchalantly

Bepo opened one eye "Sorry Aokiji-san, Shut up Blackhead before I have him freeze you to death and make you my Icy pillow." he said in a high pitched voice.

Aokiji had a hard glare "You heard the bear, shut up before you become a Icy pillow." he said in seriousness. Sanji yelled "You 2 stop teaming up on me and you shut up!" Bepo opened his eye "Huuuh?" his voice deep and mocking the man who was getting on his nerves.

Law witnessed the quarrel "All of you shut up before I slice you up and throw your body parts everywhere, were leaving as soon as the rest get here." his voice showing his agitation.

"Aye, Aye Captain!" Bepo yelled in happiness.

The Straw Hats seen the Ice appear beside them "Why is Aokiji making a pathway? is he going to pass by here?" Luffy asked in a curious tone his head cocked to the side.

Zoro had his cocked to the side as well "Hmm, it's safe to say he's trying to build a pathway for someone else instead." in a uncertain tone.

Usopp screamed "Were all in trouble something horrible will happen this is our deathbed, please Kamisama save us from the horrible death were all going to have!" fearing the Ice pathway.

Nami ran to see what was going on "What happened!? Why are you screaming Usopp it's not the end of the world stupid!" she was yelling in irritation.

Then she saw the pathway screaming "You're right were all going to die Aokiji is here for revenge, all for taking robin away, oh Kamisama help us from the calamity that's about to happen!"

Brook joined screaming, having Nami jump screaming at the jump scare. Usopp screamed when she screamed having Chopper scared running to Zoro screaming "Zoro make it stop my ears!" in a terrified scream.

Zoro picked him up covering his ears "Shut up you idiots are scaring Chopper! I'll slice you up and feed you to the fishey's if you don't shut the hell up!" he yelled in rage.

Nami and brook, Usopp turned to Zoro screaming louder by his threat clinging onto each other "Our deaths are here! Kamisama do something, we need your strength against the demon before us!" Usopp said in a terrified way.

Luffy was getting irritated "Shut up! We will see if were in trouble we'll send a team! Captain's orders!" he yelled. Zoro felt a sweat drop form on his forehead a nervous look appeared, backing away quietly, rushing to fall asleep again in the corner holding Chopper "Shhh if you know what's best, don't leave, fall asleep now!" he whispered low.

Chopper felt happy with the idea "Brilliant idea goodnight!" he whispered back, they both fell asleep with no further words. Luffy looked at them with a hardened gaze, they felt the gaze, sweat drops forming all over raining down fast 'Shit… Did he find out!?' they both thought.

Luffy looked away shrugging, Robin backed away quietly, running to the library stopping mid-way "Psshh! Franky get over here now! Before it's too late." she said in a elegant loud whisper. Having Franky trail behind her quietly, getting out of sight running to the library.

Brook looked around 'Nooo! Not me today I better escape now!" screaming in his thoughts about to leave when Luffy grabbed him looking around a leaf flew in the air "Where did everybody go brook?" he asked in wonder.

Brook felt himself tense up nervously "Uh maybe they went to the library, want me to go get them?" he asked in generosity, Luffy smiled "Nope! It will be just you and Usopp, Nami." he said in a happy tone.

Nami felt her knees give out her hands in front of her, staring at the ground with tears "Luffy~! Noo why does it have to be me?! Can't you go with them!?" she pleaded, the straw hat man jumped in front of her, dropping in a squatting position with his hand on his chin. Picking her head up with his index finger and thumb.

"Nami I can't leave the Sunny-go I have to protect it, were sailing over that way so we will be behind you guys. So stop crying and cheer up, you will all be fine." he said in gentle tone, Nami frowned. Tears coming out "Noo! That path is spelling death all over it! No matter how you look at it!" she yelled in fright.

"Well Zoro and Chopper already fell asleep, Robin and Franky disappeared. I can't really do anything but guard the ship." he said in a disappointed tone, continuing before she could say anything "I would love to go with you, But no one at this point will be able to guard the ship." she felt devastated.

The Swordsman and Tanuki felt relief wash over them, they still pretended to sleep till they were clear. But they peaked with their eyes open a little watching the couple.

She nodded understanding, hugging Luffy "If I die today please remember that I tried my hardest making amends, and I will always love you." she pulled back, kissing Luffy passionately Zoro's mouth dropped covering Choppers eyes. He squirmed trying to uncover his eyes "Zoro what the hell you stupid Marimo!" he whispered loudly, Zoro grunted "This is rated R you can't be defiled!" he whispered back.

The Tanuki kept trying to take his hand away, but to no avail. Nami pulled back getting up running to find Franky, Zoro took his hand away receiving a hiss from Chopper "Stupid Marimo what happened!?" he whispered, Zoro answered "Stop calling me Marimo stupid Raccoon Dog! Nothing for you to know your too pure!" in a loud whisper. Chopper got mad "I'm not a Raccoon Dog stupid Marimo."

Luffy looked at them again, they both froze pretending to sleep. Looking back at the yelling brook.

Brook yelled "Ahh! My Captain got kissed! Oh my time of seeing her pa-" Nami came back throwing her navigation book at him, and then heading back to finding Franky. He fell to the ground "After all she always looked at you with adoration.. Luffy-san why." he said in a devastated tone.

Luffy blushed looking away when Usopp glowered at him "Luffy… Since when did you and her?" he whistled walking away, Usopp didn't fall back. The long nose boy ran towards him turning Luffy to face him, grabbing him by his cardigan "SINCE WHEN LUFFY!? I NEED TO KNOW IF IT'S SERIOUS, WHAT IF SHE HURTS YOUR FEELINGS OR YOU HURT HER!? I CAN'T ACCEPT IT!" he yelled out of desperation. Getting Zoro and Choppers full attention.

Luffy's eyes went wide, his heart stung by the words of Usopp's "Usopp give me space.. I'll explain later." he said in a cold voice.

The long nose refused, continuing his speech "Luffy! Please tell me now! There's a lot that me and Franky, Chopper, Brook don't know how can you say you'll explain later!? I refuse you and her ever dating, nothing good will come out of it! Please just tell me.. If you or her get a broken heart we will know who to comfort in the end! Luffy you don't know what you are getting yourself into!" he said in a anxious voice.

Zoro and Chopper felt the air change, they both got tense fully opening their eyes watching their Captain and Usopp arguing.

Luffy knew Usopp was in the right, he didn't want to tell him about the incident with Law. Knowing Usopp was going to deny them being together on the spot, but he felt like he had no choice so he gave in explaining everything.

Nami ran into the library feeling the air change a bad feeling in her gut, she felt sad and anxious not knowing why. She bursted through the door not enthusiastic about it, seeing something she wished she didn't at the time Robin and Franky killing their urges. Nami cleared her throat, having the pair jump back scrambling for their clothes "Franky we need the Mini Going Merry, so please get out when your done." she said in a flat tone.

Walking out the library, wishing she knew why she felt the air change like if something bad was going to happen. Nami hurriedly ran back to the front, seeing Usopp yell at Luffy about them not being allowed together. Her heart sank the wind knocked out, she leaned against the wall sitting down a lump forming in her throat.

Tears falling down with no trouble, she clenched her heart "It's my fault I know that… I made a big mistake, I knew I couldn't fix it no matter how hard I tried. Why am I so stupid and stubborn.." she said to herself aloud feeling the anguish return 10x the max, she knew the mistake with Law was not repairable.

Nami crossed a line she knew couldn't trace back, her heart ached 'I seen this was coming and I didn't prepare for it.. So much for thinking highly of making amends.' she thought angry with herself yet again. She listened to Usopp.

"Luffy I don't accept it! I'm sure Sanji was the same way when he found out, if he even found out I will not accept it. Nami already hurt you Luffy! it isn't worth it, your only going to get hurt again! Stop being so stubborn! If Kaya ever did that to me I would be heartbroken! I would never give her another chance! Zoro should be against it as well!" he yelled at him trying to convince him.

Zoro stood up walking over to them putting Chopper on the ground "I am against it as well, but I knew since the Beginning I heard Nami talk with Robin about it. There's no okay to it Usopp does have a point he is right.. I never really thought about it until now. Luffy if you want to avoid another broken heart I suggest you take time away and think about it. Be logical you don't know if she has feelings for him nor do you know if she's serious. You will never know what's inside her heart or mind. I'm sorry your my captain, but I only want the best for you.. There you have it my thoughts about it." his voice filled with guilt, his face showing the worry he felt.

Brook looked down on the ground "That's right Luffy-san please just think about it.. You might not ever know how she truly feels so take your time sorting your feelings out." the skeletons voice showed disappointment. He was shocked and unsure if Luffy should stay with her.

Franky and Robin listened to everything, standing beside Nami who was crying, they both felt sad and worried about what was going to happen. Robin embraced her, rubbing her back "Nami you should do the same, you got that problem coming onto your hands already. Your emotions are already wiring all over the place, and your always tired that's the first sign before the official signs kick in. You won't have a choice, I'm afraid to say this but you need time away from them, both, get everything shorted out and thought thoroughly. It's been 7 or 6 days from then think about this seriously." she said in a soft voice, trying her best giving her advice.

Franky understood perfectly when Robin let him in on the juicy story, he was prepared for this day. Nami broken out of the embrace standing up "Let's go already Franky and get this over with I'll be back later Robin your right… I need to short out my own feelings as well." the coldness in her voice made them worry more. Franky didn't linger he did as she said, taking her to get the mini going merry.

Usopp was stopped by a hand on his shoulder, Nami was right there composing herself, Luffy looked away his eyes covered by his hat. Breaking the hold Usopp got on his cardigan, walking to the sunny's head to lay on it as he thought about Usopp's advice, Brook felt sad for him unable to look at Nami.

Nami spoke "Let's go now we have a path way to check out.." her hair covering her eyes as the tears fell 'I'm so sorry Luffy..' she thought as her head felt dizzy, ignoring it. Nami went to the Thousand Sunny Soldier Docking System, Franky opened Channel 2 with no words with the group intensely avoiding each other's gazes.

The sad navigator hopped in the front "Don't linger any longer I want to come back and sleep as soon as possible." the coldness in her voice made Usopp and Brook warily get in the mini going merry. They all stayed quiet as they left the Sunny-go, without looking at each other Nami steered the Mini Going Merry.

After 2 hours of finding nothing the continued down the path, the clouds getting darker and darker, like it was going to snow terribly. Nami shivered "Weird it was shining brightly with the sun over their, now it's all cold and cloudy.. This is really weird." she said in concern.

Brook felt like joking to get the tensed air lifted, but couldn't because Nami shot him a glare "Don't you even start. I got thinking to do." she growled. Usopp couldn't talk he was still upset with her, they still followed the path.

After 30 minutes they spotted a ship, Usopp started sneezing because of the cold Nami's shivering got worse "What's that Usopp can you see if that's a ship or… AAHHH! IT'S A GHOST SHIP!" she screamed. Trying to turn the Mini Going Merry around, but brook stopped her curiosity was killing him "Why would a ghost ship be around here?" he asked.

Nami looked at him "ARE YOU SERIOUS! THAT'S HOW WE A FOUND YOU! I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANYTHING SCARY RIGHT NOW I'M F-F-FREE-EZ-ZING!" she had trouble at the end of the sentence when a huge gust of wind blew on her.

They saw someone walking in the sky, running fast they both jumped "AAHHH! DON'T COME OVER HERE KAMISAMA PLEASE SAVE US FROM THE CALAMITY WERE ALL ABOUT TO GO THROUGH!" Usopp screamed, Brook was startled screaming "AAHHH YOU GUYS STOP SCARING ME ALREADY!" Usopp looked at him screaming louder.

The navigator said "NOOO-OOHOOO! STAY AWAY I DON'T WANT TO DIE TODAY! USOPP GET THAT THING WITH YOUR SNIPING SKILLS!" screaming as it got closer.

Usopp jumped in surprise "Ah! your right I can take it down. Good thinking Nami!" he said in a happy voice, as he grabbed his Kabuto "Special attack: Green star Platanus shuriken!" he shouted as the grass shurikens went towards the person in the sky, but the person dodged getting closer.

"USSSOOOPPPP! YOU BASTARD IF I DIDN'T HAVE HAKI I COULD HAVE GOT INJURED!" a kick landed on Usopp's face as he fell in the water, Nami screamed "AAH THE GHOST IS ATTACKING!" Brook screamed as he seen Sanji.

"Don't scare me like that! Sanji.. You almost made me jump into the water.." Brook said in a startled voice, holding onto the railing of the Mini Going Merry. Sanji looked at Nami "Sorry didn't mean to scare you. NAAMII-SWAAAN!" he said in bliss at the sight of her, his nose bled when he seen her chest "N-Nami-san, can I-" he was kicked into the ocean.

Nami saw Usopp hanging onto the mini merry "Tis breezing lami welp e up" unable to speak, Brook and Nami reached for him, pulling the long nose back on.

Sanji kicked his way in the air "Nami I'm going back you can wait till you get on the sunny or-" he was interrupted by Law using shambles, all of them hit the pavement Nami banged her head on the ground, giving Usopp face full of boobs.

Law glared at Usopp, grabbing Nami off of him holding her close by her waist "And what do you think your doing Usopp-ya." he asked in a nonchalant voice.

The navigator pulled away shivering "Why the hell is it so c- AAHH! What the hell is he doing here!?" she yelled in surprise pointing, Brook and Usopp followed her finger that was pointing at the man in front of them. Casually sitting on Bepo "Nami see I told you that this- AHH the Mini Going Merry!" Usopp shouted about to run into the ocean to grab it, but law used his powers exchanging it with an empty barrel. It landing on his ship with a loud thud.

Law picked Nami up "I'm going to get her a coat." walking away ignoring Nami's protesting, everyone was shocked "Looks like he made his solid decision." Aokiji said in a entertained voice.

They all looked at him "Shut up! You Icy freak!" shouting all in unison, Brook and Usopp walked over to him shouting "What the hell are you doing here!" in frustrated way, they were being left out on a lot.

Bepo looked at them with one eye "Shut the hell up, your ruining my moment Aokiji-san tell them you will make them my Icy pillow." he demanded "Your so bossy bear, you heard the man you will become his Icy pillow if you don't shut up." his voice sounding menacing.

Shachi and Penguin shouted "Shut up! You got no moment, all your doing is laying down and seeping cold off that stupid creep!" Aokiji gave them a warning look. Brook backed away "Your here for that bear?!" surprised as to finding out why he was their.

Aokiji nodded "Now quiet, Bepo's enjoying his slumber." he said defensively, Bepo smiled "Aahhh~ Aokiji-sann colder! It's not cold enough." his high pitched voice made Usopp cringe 'This polar bear is literally in bliss.. There's so much all in one day I can't take it anymore.' he thought in a exhausted way, getting away from everyone sitting against the railing.

Nami squirmed under Law who was pinning her on the bed "I missed you so much Nami-ya.." she gasped when he kissed her weak spots, her face red unable to collect her thoughts "L-Law please stop.. I-I have a-a l-l-lot to t-thinking do!" he pulled back.

Looking at her "What is it that you need to think about Nami-ya?" he asked impatiently. She glared at him "I have to so-" she was interrupted with Law's teasing, she was trying to fight back. All because she was about to give in, but all of it went down the drain.

The navigator finally let herself give into the man who was dominating her, "Your so unreasonable Law.." she said in a moan.

The two just felt everything around them disappear, letting each other drown in their heated intimate moment.

Aokiji had Iced clone eyes implanted in the room, smirking 'So the show just begun.' he thought as he sat comfortably on Bepo "Someone get me popcorn!" shouting seriously.
