ZOLO's LESSOIN IN SWORDSMANSHIP

A/N: ok note I'm new at One Piece fan fic so please tell me what I do wrong so I can correct it thanks

Luffy was sitting in his favorite chair sleeping away with the rest of the crew working on the ship. Nami was plotting the course for the quickest way to the grand line. Usopp was saying how much of a great captain he would make. Sanji for making lunch for the crew

And Zolo was napping away on the cool sunny day

"Ok you lazy bums lunch is up" Sanji yelled Zolo slowly raised at this and made his way to the kitchen but was cut of by Luffy wiping by him chanting "food food food" Zolo got his balance back and thought 'how I agreed to join this crew I well never know'

the rest of the crew joined them. As usual Luffy was grabbing everything in sight and wolfing it down like he hadn't eaten in days. Nami was last to come in studying a map as she walked in. "what's that you got there Nami" Luffy asked with a mouth full. Sanji saw this and drop kicked him right on the head yelling "you never talk to a lady with food in your mouth"

He paused and his eyes grew hearts in them "especially Nami" Nami walked up to him and slapped him down to the ground "how many times have I to you Luffy can speak to me any way he wants to." She looked at him and winked "he is my boyfriend after all" Luffy jumped up and kissed her "dang right I am haha"

Zolo left the room at this and started his mid morning training. He still had Mehawk on his mind 'I well become stronger then him I well fight him again and I'll win next time.' Nighttime fell quickly Nami decided it would be fun to camp out on the nearby island so of course Luffy sided with her. Which meant they all had to go.

Usopp was very reluctant about going be Luffy said he could be captain for the day if he went. Luffy and Nami had their own tent Zolo slept on the ground and Sanji and Usopp slept in the other tent. The next morning Zolo got up and a strange figured man was there. He looked a Zolo and said, "So you must be Zolo the greatest worrier in the land is that correct"

"Well I'm not the best in the land yet but It's what I…" Zolo stopped and drew one of his swords and blocked the blade of his attacker. "Good" the figure said "I have finally found you I've been looking all over the ocean for you. Ever since I found Mehawk before I killed him he told me about you. So I just had to run instantly and set out the search for you." He pulled another sword and yelled.

"So I can add you to my collection of want a be master swordsman" Zolo pulled his remaining blades to deflect the slashes his foe was throwing at him. Zolo tried to slash at the figure but he blocked it with one blade and broke one of Zolo's swords with the other. "You see Zolo I am the very best there is Mehawk said it and so did his clan of weak ants easily squashed by my skill and blades" the attacker put his swords away " I well do to you what I did to Mehawk you have three days on the third my hunt for you begins again. Now you can do what Mehawk did and run thinking I won't find you. Or you can train or it least get better swords meant for fighting in stead of those paper blades you carry with you now."

Zolo looked at the shattered sword and agreed to his terms before he left Zolo asked "well stranger can I at least get your name" the man turned around "my name only goes to the corpses I leave behind me oh and you better get those cut healed before starting your new training."

Zolo looked to his arms and side that were leaking blood out of them when he looked up the man was gone vanished into thin air. In those ten minutes he had four large cuts on him. The others woke up and asked what happened to him he didn't say a thing and started bandaging his wounds and asked when they were stopping at an island with a market. "Well I kind of like this place I mean I know you haven't been having to much luck here but we were thinking on staying again tonight." Luffy said

Zolo looked at him sharply and said "Luffy we have to get out of here now I broke one of my swords on a rock and need to get another one" he said feeling stupid now not being able to think of anything else to say." Hmmm well ok I guess that means we're off guys" "ooohhhh" the group said they all started packing except Sanji "ok cabbage head I know your stupid but not stupid enough to hit one of your swords up against a rock."

Zolo looked at him no a get off my back type of way "so what really happened huh?" the cook questioned, " this guy I woke up and he was standing above me and asked if I was Zolo. I answered and he pulled his blades on me" he paused for a moment and finished "I fought him for ten minutes and got four cutes alone my arms and sided" Sanji sat down and lit a cigarette

" Well that sucks Mr. Big bad swordsman just got a bet down big time wait where does the broken sword come in?" Zolo looked down "that guy blocked a triple side slash with one blade the shattered this one with one blow. I've never seen that done before and now I have three days to train and become strong enough to fight him."

"Well I guess you better get started now swordsman that guy is probably watching you now" Zolo nodded and got to the ship to help pack "well Zolo looked torn up" Nami stated to Luffy "Yeah but I know he'll be ok he is Zolo after all" he said giving her a big smile "yeah that's true nothing can stop him"

A/N well that ends the first chapter on this hopefully long story if I can get three reviews I would be very happy thanks for reading and please review.
