A/N: So I finished my assignment, took a few days to do nothing and now am back. I might not be the most regular updater but I really want to start a routine and that might help with my other writing too. These might be short but I have realised that eventually there is going to be quite a few of them so please keep letting me know what you think and concrit is welcomed.
Thanks for all the story alerts/favourites.
To Guest, thanks, I hope that a week was soon enough.
To Arxhaelogist, thanks for the feedback, I will try to keep an eye on that in my writing.
Nami didn't really know what to think of these two guys. They were either real idiots or some form of geniuses, nothing else could explain what happened back there at that island.
She still wasn't quite sure what had happened, or hadn't quite been able to process it. She looked over at the two guys in the other boat and tried to work out how they did it. It wasn't just the strength that defeated the Buggy pirates and how they had it that confused her, it was also how they seemed to know what the other was thinking or about to do, and seamlessly backing each other up.
When she had asked why there crew was so small a short time earlier, the swordsman had replied that it had only been a crew for less than a week, which was impossible. There was no way that could be true, it was impossible for two people who had only known each other for such a shot amount of time to work as well as those two did. She wasn't even able to work as well with Nojiko and she'd known her her entire life.
Nami still couldn't work out how the swordsman had translated run away to move the cannon, or how the boy had known that the other would translate it that way.
Another thing that confused her was the swordsman. Of course she had heard of Roronoa Zoro, the Pirate Hunter, during her travels, no one who travelled the East Blue could avoid the name. But why, if this was really him, would he join forces with a pirate, let alone this straw hat wearing boy. She would have thought, given the rumours, that he would be as likely as her to truly join a pirate crew, but here he seemingly was able to interpret unspoken orders and showing a form of loyalty. He obviously came looking for his "captain", then saved her when she was trying to stop the cannon, when he could have just walked away.
They were an odd sort of pirate, if they chose to fight for the reasons she thought they did, then deliberately leaving half her haul for the village. She guessed she could forgive them for that, after all wasn't that the reason she was stealing in the first place, to protect a village.
They were interesting, all right. It was almost a shame that she wouldn't be with them long, she would have liked to see what else they would do.
P.S: Nami seemed to want to focus on both of them in this one, but what is the first mate without the captain.
