Sanji looked at the man that Zoro had pointed out, with bright red hair, three scars through one eye and one arm missing there wasn't really any way to accuse Zoro of mistaking him for someone else.

'Fuck' he ran his hand over his face again he had been pacing the room ever since Zoro had pointed Shanks out, he pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed Luffy.

He listened to it ringing whilst pulling the cigarettes out of his pocket, fuck he was running low. This had to be one of the most stressful days of his life, he glanced back to the bed where Zoro was watching him, he still looked confused.

Well fuck it if Sanji couldn't make sense of this what chance did someone with no memories have.

'Moshi moshi' Luffy's cheerful voice answered.

'Get your ass up here and bring Robin as well I know who hired him'

He hung up and tossed his phone onto the bed, and tried to calm himself down with a long drag on his cigarette. When he was stressed he swore more and struggled to stay still, he was also more inclined to kick things. It wasn't his fault, it was learned behaviour so he lay blame directly at Zeff's door.

His door burst open and in bounced Luffy closely followed by Robin. Luffy sat next to Zoro and glanced at the picture.

'So Zeff's trying to kill you?'

'What the hell Luffy? No my dad isn't trying to have me killed' Ok he and his dad fought a lot and they argued about well just about everything but really Luffy.

Luffy nodded 'Garp then?'

'No it was' Sanji started

'Kureha' he nodded knowingly

'For fuck sake Luffy it was Shanks' Luffy had worked his way through half of the back row anyway. In the picture directly behind Ace and Sabo was Garp, to Garp's left was Zeff and Shanks and to his right was Koshiro, Belle-mere and Kureha.

'Oh' Luffy paused looking thoughtful 'What did you do to upset Shanks Sanji?'

'Nothing, why would you think I'd done something?'

'Well he sent someone to kill you Sanji' Luffy crossed his arms looking serious.

'Apparently to punish you so what the hell did you do?' Sanji yelled at the idiot.

Luffy scratched his head looking confused.

'Boys if I may' Robin interrupted.

Of course his angel would make sense of this, he stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, it had been finished before Luffy came in but he'd been distracted by the idiocy.

Sanji then sat next to Luffy on the bed, the three of them almost looked like a line of kids about to get scolded.

'Luffy-san instead of arguing why don't you just phone him and ask him?'

Sanji gaped at Luffy 'If you have his phone number why the hell were you arguing with me?'

The black haired teen shrugged 'I forgot'

He….Sanji took a deep breath and slowly let it out. He loved Luffy, he was like family to him but he had this habit of running into situations without any thought and it stressed the hell out of him.

Luffy cheerfully pulled his phone out oblivious to what he was doing to Sanji's blood pressure, he ran through his contacts and picked one, after pressing it he put it on loudspeaker so that they could all hear.

As the phone rang out Sanji glanced over at Zoro expecting him to look nervous but he seemed to be as curious as the rest of them.

The phone rang out and as it went to voicemail Luffy hung up.

'Should I try again?' Luffy asked

'Yea I want answers' Sanji nodded

Luffy dialed again and it rang out on loudspeaker again, a few rings in and it made a clicking sound.

'Luffy!' a voice on the other end cheered

'Shanks' Luffy cried back.

'What's up? It's not like you to randomly call.'

'Oh right' Luffy paused looking thoughtful 'Did you send someone to kill Sanji?'

'Ah yea' he heard a laugh on the other end 'I meant to phone and warn you but I forgot' he swore sometimes that Luffy took after Shanks more than his actual family.

'So why did you send someone to kill me Shanks?' Sanji jumped in.

'Well I thought Luffy would want his swordsman back, his crews never going to be better than mine if he's missing one of you guys'

'You knew who he was when you sent him?' Robin asked

'How many green haired people who fight with three swords can there be?' he heard Shanks laugh again.

Well he did have a point green hair wasn't exactly common and he was yet to meet anyone else that fought with three swords at once.

'Where did you find him?' Luffy jumped in

'Wait he hasn't told you yet?' Shanks sounded confused.

'No, he didn't even remember who he was when he got here' Robin answered.

'Hmmm I didn't get to speak to him when I hired him, he was in the room though. I saw him fighting in Doflamingo's Colosseum, Gatz told me he wasn't a regular fighter, he was put on to show off because I was there. It was talking to Vergo later I found out what his role was and then I hired him.'

'So they're the ones that took him?' Luffy looked and sounded furious.

'I don't think they did Luffy, Vergo mentioned that he had been a gift to his young master. Off who he didn't say but I figured once he was safely with you guys you could find out'

'We will' Luffy's tone promised pain.

'I'll send information on the Donquixote family, anything else you need to know?'

'Why would they tell you all this?' Robin asked

'Oh he wanted an alliance so his men were trying to impress me, he was trying to get the four emperors on his side'

There gang was still small time Luffy wasn't pushing to make his mark yet, and the government didn't exactly want to advertise that they had been beaten, probably how Shanks had pulled this off so easily.

On the other hand the four Emperors were the most powerful gangs below them was the seven warlords who had a deal with the government to be left alone.

Sanji grinned this was going to get messy but finally they would be proving themselves and he knew nothing was going to stop them; especially now their group was finally complete.

'Right Luffy I'm going to go, I'll get the information over to you and good luck with Doflamingo.'

'Thanks Shanks' Luffy hung up the phone.

The room was silent but Sanji was buzzing they finally had a lead about what had happened to…... Zoro.

He'd been so caught up with the conversation that he'd forgotten that the other man was in the room.

The other man was sitting forward his sword pinned between his feet and the hilt against his shoulder. He was staring angrily at the floor, crap had they pushed him to far with that conversation?

'Marimo?'

'Anything you want to know, if I can answer it I will' his voice was cold 'I want to know what happened to us and it seems like you guys can help me get revenge'

'Your our Nakama, we'd do anything for you' Luffy grinned
