SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 33 out, this is Chapter 34 of this fic. For everyone who put this fic on your favorited and followed lists and/or story alerts, thank you, but remember everyone, a lot of authors, myself included, sustain on readers' reviews.
Pairings: Trafalgar Law/Anderson Amy (Because, really, out of all the Sailor Moon/One Piece fics out there, how come no one ever thought of this pairing?)
Disclaimers: One Piece and Sailor Moon belong to Oda EiichirÅ-sensei and Takeuchi Naoko-sensei respectively. Me, on the other hand, own absolutely nothing, except this pairing and plot, I hope.
Chapter 34: Curtain-up on a New Adventure! Arriving at the Phantom Island, Zou!
"It's too foggy." Bartolomeo muttered, the ship sailing through the irregularly thick fog. "I can't see ahead."
"You guys are getting seasick way to often." Zoro complained, seeing the Barto Club crew turning green. "How could you call yourselves pirates?"
"Chewing gum..." Bartolomeo groaned, pulling out a strip of gum.
"Chewing gum?" Franky echoed.
"It'll make it a little better, Grandma said." Bartolomeo moaned.
"That explains a lot." Amy sweatdropped at the pieces of chewing gum that littered the deck.
"That's why there is gum stuck everywhere on this ship." Usopp exclaimed.
"Boss, I see something at two o'clock!" the crew member in the crow's nest reported. "In a dense fog, there's a mountain or a monster."
"I hope there's no monster that can be mistaken for a mountain." Bartolomeo retorted.
"But it looks like it's moving slowly..." the crew member added.
"If it's a mountain that moves, let's go!" Luffy grinned.
"No, idiot!" Usopp silenced him. "Anyway, what we gotta do now is get out of this foggy maze as soon as possible. Otherwise, we'll hit a reef and capsize."
"Wait, God." Law voiced.
"Did you call me 'God'?" Usopp gushed. "I'm flattered. I'm a man of 200 million and I'm flattered."
"I'm sure even the Navy Admirals are aware of you now." Law remarked flatly.
"That's blunt." Amy gaped.
"Look." Law gestured to the Vivre Card in his palm. "The Vivre Card is pointing to that."
"You're right." Luffy blinked. "That means your friends are there."
"I heard Zou blocks out invaders with dense fog and an adverse current." Law explained.
"There're headwinds too." Franky added. "Take in the sails. We'll row it forward."
"Is this the island Zou?" Luffy gaped at the giant-sized elephant.
"No, that's strange." Bartolomeo was shocked.
"This is no good!" Usopp panicked. "Let's run. Turn it around."
"No, this is it." Law corrected.
"Tra-guy, but this is an elephant (zou)!" Luffy stammered.
"And thus the name Zou." Amy remarked. "This makes so much sense now." she rolled her eyes.
"Yeah," Law confirmed. "Zou is the name of the place that flourishes on the back of a massive elephant."
"What?" Usopp exclaimed. "Is it alive?"
"It keeps moving so it'll never be at the same location." Law continued. "It's a Phantom Island. It's not actually an island so Log Poses won't get you here. I've never been here before either. It's showing its back to us. That means Black Foot and the others could've gotten here much earlier."
"So we're chasing an elephant that was walking away." Robin reasoned.
"Yeah." Law agreed. "Get ready to make landfall. Can you give us some food?" he requested.
"For you?" Bartolomeo echoed.
"Can you give Straw Hat0ya some food?" Law corrected his questioned.
"Take everything in the food storage!" Bartolomeo offered.
"I heard there is a tribe that hates humans." Kanjuro reminded.
"Yes," Law replied. "It's the Mink Tribe. They hold off humans and people say the history of their country goes back nearly a thousand years."
"A thousand years?" Luffy gaped. "On the elephant's back? Does that mean that the elephant has been alive for a thousand years?"
SailorStar9: Any OOC-nes is regretted. *Sighs* Don't you just hate plot bunnies sometimes? Reviews are much appreciated.
