1 PIECE another time travel

(A/N: I own nothing and read last chapter)

With the two and a half queens

"So any ideas what our husband is up to right now?" Galette asked looking at Reiju and Yamato as they managed to get past Dressarossa without anything happening even though they had to fend off attacking pirates and marines more than a few times now. Something was going on at Dressarossa as well and Yamato seemed distracted as he looked at the island as they passed by it.

"Either he's doing something stupid or Zoro is." Reiju said immediately and making the other two snicker slightly. Luffy was such a carefree and reckless man, one of the many reasons why they loved him, and Zoro was always more than ready to go along with his Captains insane plans as well as do his own crazy things whenever he got lost.

"They shouldn't be in the Grandline yet though. What's the worst that could happen in the East Blue?" Yamato asked smiling at his two wives who paused for a moment and then winced.

"Considering who we're talking about I wouldn't be surprised if he managed to get into a fight with a Warlord or something." Galette said wincing and making Yamato wince as well. Yeah that was true.

"Come on be serious. What are the odds of a Warlord going to the East Blue and the crew managing to come across them?" Most of the Warlords are in the New World with only three I can think of right off hand being in Paradise." Reiju asked more than said and making her lovers nod their heads slowly. Yeah that was a good point. What were the odds of a Warlord going to what was deemed as the Weakest Sea?

Back with Luffy and the Strawhats

"Mihawk! I'm here to challenge you to a duel!" Zoro called towards the Warlord while Usopp had already sniped most of the Kreig's main crew, knocking them all out with his slingshot. The only reason he hadn't sniped Kreig yet is cause he hadn't been given the orders to.

"Hmph very well. Sorry but I don't have any swords smaller than this." Mihawk said underestimating Zoro due to the sea they were in and drawing his tiny neck dagger.

"Bet you fifty beli that the one in his pants is smaller." Luffy said without hesitation and making his crew snort, Nami nearly snorting out her rum.

"Where the hell do you learn these things?" Usopp asked trying to smother his laughter at the look on everyone elses faces at what Luffy said.

"Either Galette or Reiju." Luffy said grinning at his crew while Zoro was desperately trying not to laugh around the sword in his mouth.

"Sanji your sister is a bad influence on the Captain." Nami said but she was grinning as she wiped up the mess she had made.

"I know." Sanji sighed defeatedly and making Luffy give Nami a look.

"She literally poisons people with a kiss, and loves drinking poison. What part of that said 'good influence' to you?" Luffy asked in genuine curiosity and making Nami's eyebrow twitch.

"She's older than you and more mature! Not to mention that she's a literal princess! Forgive me for thinking she'd actually help calm you down some." Nami snipped at her Captain who just raised an eyebrow at her.

"She is literally an assassin Nami. The most beautiful assassin I've ever met sure but still an assassin." Luffy deadpanned making Nami face palm at that, honestly after Reiju had joined their crew she had forgotten that the pink haired woman was trained to be an assassin from birth almost.

"Besides it takes the three of them just to wear him and each other out. Calm him down? Don't even joke." Zoro called back to Nami before he looked at Mihawk and raised an eyebrow.

"Are we going to start yet?" Zoro asked making Mihawk smirk at him and immediately Zoro was on the offensive. Mihawk was underestimating him and he would learn that even here in the East that it was a very deadly mistake.

Mihawk blocked most of the slash with his dagger but a bit of the force got by him and it was so sharp that it cut his ear clean off. An inch or so to the right and it would have given him a scar on the face if not killed him.

Mihawks eyes widened a bit as he realized the extent of the damage done to him and in that moment Zoro pounced again, unleashing a flying slash that took Mihawk by surprise. But the man wasn't the Worlds Greatest for no reason. He recovered in record time and avoided the flying part of the slash this time, or most of it at least. There was a small scratch left on his arm from the slash going by him.

"You're stronger than I thought…indeed…it's only your swords holding you back." Mihawk said narrowing his eyes at Zoro who shrugged slightly.

"Yeah but they're doing good for now. Besides I'm going to upgrade them soon." Zoro said shrugging and making Mihawk smirk as he began to take the fight semi-seriously.

It lasted for a good half an hour now but then Zoro's two unnamed swords broke, but that was alright. He had expected that…to his credit though he managed to break Mihawks tiny dagger clean in half and nearly separated the mans head from his shoulders.

Zoro felt nostalgic as he lost and Mihawk asked why he refused to step back, Zoro once again claiming that he didn't accept defeat or death. Not until his dream and his Captains was achieved.

"Scars on the back are a swordsmans shame." Zoro said without having to be asked when he bared his torso to Mihawk, his arms spread wide as he prepared himself for the slash. Mihawk grinned at that.

"Indeed." Mihawk pulled Yoru and then swung it, slashing Zoro who managed to stay on his feet this time much to everyone else's shock and Mihawks pleasant surprise.

"Shall I add another?" Mihawk asked as he readied his blade, it was only his Observation and sharp eyesight that let him move from preparing to attack Zoro again to a defensive position in time to block Luffy's foot.

"That's enough. He's lost and barely conscious. He just refuses to fall. Try to slash him again and you'll be facing me instead." Luffy said his voice cold and dangerous as he stared down Mihawk unafraid while Mihawks eyes widened a bit as he stared at his sword.

"Hmph. What is your name boy?" Mihawk asked ignoring Luffy and looking instead at Zoro as Usopp and Sanji came and grabbed him, getting him back to the Baratie to sew up his wounds.

"Roronoa Zoro. The man who will become the Worlds Greatest Swordsman." Zoro said making Mihawk smirk a bit.

"Then hear me Roronoa Zoro! Surpass this sword and meet me at the top!" Mihawk yelled as Luffy jumped back to the Baratie now that he knew Mihawk wasn't going to attack Zoro again.

"Luffy…I know I broke this promise last time…but I swear…that until I'm the Worlds Greatest Swordsman and you're the Pirate King again…I will NEVER LOSE AGAIN!" Zoro yelled to his captain as he held up Wado and Luffy laughed a bit.

"I know Zoro. Now get some rest and recover. You've earned it." Luffy said making Zoro grin.

"Aye Captain." Zoro said and he quickly fell asleep, or more likely passed out.

During this Mihawk began to sail away but kept Yoru out and was staring at it.

"Monkey D. Luffy, the brat that Shanks was so interested in. Hmph." Mihawk mused to himself as he looked at where Luffy's foot had hit Yoru to keep him from striking Zoro again.

There were small cracks in the blade right where Luffy had kicked it. A feat no one else had ever accomplished, not even Shanks in his prime with both arms…and certainly something no one had ever accomplished with their foot.

"That boy…is going to change the world."

Oh if Mihawk only knew.
