Chapter 21

Lexi and Robin exited their ship's small library after having spent the chilly afternoon reading books.

They had been at sea for two entire weeks now and they were running low on provisions and that's why Usopp, Chopper and Brook were holding fishing rods but strangely they weren't fishing as they should be. They felt a strong pressure hit them and that's when the girls noticed Sanji looking dumbfounded and scratching his head while Nami was yelling loudly at a big cloud with arms and legs sticking out on the ship and Franky trying to get into the cloud only to constantly being pushed out.

When they got closer they realized that the cloud of arms and legs were actually Zoro and Luffy.

"Are they fighting?" Lexi asked curiously as they got closer.

"Those idiots are going to break Sunny!" Franky wailed.

"I'm not paying for these repairs. You idiots will pay from your own pockets!" Nami screamed furiously.

"Cook-san, what happened?"

"Robin-chwan 3 3" Sanji got out of his stupor and turned to Robin with hearts in his eyes. He then sighed and looked back at the fight. "We're all pretty much hungry since we're running low on food but I decided to make some snack so i brought it out. Before I could even tell them Luffy and Zoro ran up to the table. Zoro managed to take a hold of the plate with desserts first. They had a stare-down and Luffy said 'Zoro' warningly, but Marimo just smiled and gobbled it all down. Luffy got mad and thus they began fighting. The worst thing is that the stupid Marimo is still smiling and laughing! It's weird Robin-chwan, it's weird, please stop them!" Sanji begged.

Lexi and Robin looked at each other before Robin closed her eyes and used her Devil Fruit's power. Shortly after the group could hear a loud thud and then they could see Zoro and Luffy laying flat on the deck with their face down and Robin's extra hands around their legs and keeping them immobile.

"There you go Franky, they're still now." Robin smiled at him.

Franky sat himself between them and said sternly. "If you two break anything else I will start to break you! Now both of you speak to each other!"

"Zoro! Why did you eat my snack?!"

"I was hungry."

"But i'm hungry too!"

"You always steal my food when i'm hungry."

"But i'm your Captain."

"And i'm your Swordsman."

"And why are you smiling for?! I'm being serious!"

"I'm not smiling."

"Yes you are!"

"No, i'm not."

"YES YOU ARE!"

"Luffy calm down, if you catch something I will make you a special snack so stop fighting." Sanji lit a cigarette and puffed on it as Luffy turned wide eyed to Sanji.

"Honto-nee?"

"Yeah, yeah, so hurry up and catch something if you want to eat."

Luffy rushed up now free of his restraints and ran to the rest of the fishing group and picked up his own fishing rod. He turned his head sharply back at Zoro and shouted. "Zoro! This is your fault! Come over here and help me catch something, Captain's order!"

"Hai!"

Zoro slowly stood up and dusted himself off. Even if the fishing group had their backs towards the rest the other five crew members clearly saw the affectionate and loving look the swordsman gave his captain's back while muttering annoyed. "Mendoksee Luffy, what a bother when I could be sleeping."

Sanji shook his head while puffing faster on his cigarette. "Weird, i'm telling you it's weird how his face doesn't match his words…"

"You know he can't help it." Lexi lectured him.

"I swear, those idiots! Franky, help me calculate the cost of the repairs of the things they broke." The two of them disappeared into the kitchen so that they could work without disturbances.
