Time for the next Chapter! 15

I DON'T OWN ONE PIECE.

You know, I have found that I tend to enjoy watching anime and reading books which have a strong emphasis on character background. Especially mysteries concerning a characters parents.

Star Wars: Luke finds out he is the son of the Evil Darth Vader.

"LUKE... I AM YOUR FATHER."

"NOOOOOOOOOO!"

Dragon Ball Z for example, the main hero Goku, is told he is an alien warrior who was supposed to kill everyone he had spent his life trying to protect. SHOCK!

One Piece: We have Ace, Luffy, and Usopp who are sons of very famous pirates. Luffy's reaction to finding out who Ace's Dad was:

"Oh, Ace! So Roger was your dad? ...

... Roger! Roger! Roger! Ace's Dad! The Pirate King!"

Well, what can I say? I love stories with those types of mysteries. :D

Tashigi's Heart 15: The Shrivelled Snail

.

.

"Blub Blub...Blub Blub"

This stupid Snail didn't look like it was meant to work at all. Please work! My life is in your ha... Hang on? I can't say hands? Shell? Call? Okay... My life is riding on this call. So please get through!

Gosh! I hope Captain Smoker has his Transponder close by. What if he lost it?! What if he doesn't pick up?

"Blub Blub...Blub Blub"

No! I hope they haven't got into any problems!? What if they were attached by sea monsters!? Or got trapped in a storm!? Stop! I can't allow myself to think about this. Once I get in touch with the Captain again, I'll tell him everything I've found out about the strawhats and what they have been doing. What Zoro has done.

"Blub Blub...Blub Blub"

First there was Arlong Park, He murdered countless Fishmen on a whim, thankfully they were pirates not civilians.

Next there was the pirates and marines he sliced and diced up in Loguetown, but again all that had been in self defense. From what I've seen so far he doesn't tend to start these battles.

And Now he has killed 100 bounty/pirate hunters. I'm not sure who started this one either, but Zoro is not the sort of person who would just roll over and let someone take him into custody, so... he probably said no to his captures and killed them trying to escape.

"Blub Blub...Blub Blub"

He is obviously a killer, and he finds no problem in hurting children and women. I could tell from some more of Asher's stories (Asher is the Bounty hunter kid), he kills when he feels threatened and doesn't hold back. So... Why did he hold back with me? There can only be one explanation … that he didn't see me as a threat!

"Blub Blub...Blub Blub"

For some reason that makes me really MAD! The nerve of that man! Who did he think I was? Someone he could just laugh at and step over. I don't believe that crappy story of... Oh, I can't remember...? Anyway! He said he couldn't stand my face! What a!...

No, I won't go there. It is beneath my dignity to think about the ridiculous insults he made. I was the one with the better upbringing. Upbringing? Who on earth brought him up? They did a terrible job.

"Blub Blub...Blub Catcha!" Haaaa! Someone has picked up a receiver! Please be someone on Smoker Marine.

"Hello?!" no answer? Here goes... "This is Sergeant Major Tashigi re..."

"TASHIGI! WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN!" I pulled the receiver away from my throbbing ears. Well that was definitely the Captain... THANK GOD!

"CAPTAIN! I'm so glad your alive! It's so good to hear your voice again! How are you? Have you been well? You will never believe what has happened to me! I have been..."

"TASHIGI, where are you?"fine, so he didn't want to talk, that's understandable.

"I'm on an Island near the red cliffs of entrance into the Grand Line it's called 'Whiskey Peak' I think."

"Fine," 'Oi you! Get that man's eternal log pose out again, it was the one that goes to that crappy burial ground for pirates right?' "Okay, Tashigi, we're not far away from your location. We be able to make it there in 3 days. Are you sure you're on Whiskey Peak? If your not and I end up spending my valuable time looking for your sorry ass, then I'm going to kill you."

"Haha! No, of course I'm sure. Unless the people who told me lied."

"Tashigi, you had better be there." He always sounded like he was grumbling.

"Don't worry Captain. I will be." what had him so worked up?

"And don't try anything stupid with the scum in that place." he added.

"That won't be a problem," What? Silence? So he was actually going to listen to me. "I'm not the first visitor they had here."

"The Strawhats passed through here and left one survivor."

Well, well, my dear readers that was a short one. My next chapter will be longer and about... … …. de...os...straw... Mr Zero...You can figure out the rest now.

SO, What was one of your most memorable Zoro/Tashigi moments and why do you like them? I would love your feedback.
