The Strawhats, along with Vivi and the others , went back to their ship for dinner . The dinner was quiet usual except for the death glares that Zoro and Koza exchanged occasionally. After dinner, Koza and Vivi volunteered to take the night watch; it was Vivi who volunteered and Koza decided he won't leave her alone at the Crow's Nest.

"Oi Vivi , we need to talk." Said Koza closing the door behind him .

"What is it Koza?" asked Vivi turning her gaze from the window but still not looking at him.

"We've known each other for so long, as friends& I … I think it is time to change this." Spoke Koza frankly , blushing slightly.

Vivi turned her head and face him completeley facing him, her eyes gazing ti his, "What do you mean Koza?" asked the princess in confusion.

"I mean that I don't want to be your friend anymore, I want to be … " Koza's words were cut off by the sound of firing cannons towards their direction , but luckily , it missed them , though the waves of shock rocked their ship roughly.

"What the hell was that?" shouted Koza , leaning on the wall for support. Vivi leaned on him and grabbed his arm tightly to prevent herself from falling.

"I don't know, I'll go take a look." Said Vivi running to the window; her eyes widened in fear when she saw a ship with a pirate flag. A skull with mowhak hair style.

"Bongagagagagaga" laughed the ship's captain evilly. A a huge sized man , with black mowhak hair and a long black goatee , ordered the men on the ship to fire at the Thousand Sunny one more time. The captain rubbed the scar on his forehead with his golden hand while his silver one reached for his waist band , and pulled out the rum bottle, his filthy teeth pulling the bottle's cap strongly.

"FIND THE PRINCESS ! " Yelled the pirate at his men , as they jumped off their ship and on to the Sunny.

As soon as the invading pirates laid foot on the Sunny , some of them were sliced at once. " What the …." Spoke the captain in disbelief.

"Where do you filthy pigs think you are going ! " spoke a montonus , yet threatening , voice. Zoro was holding a sword on his shoulder while licking the blood of the other's blade.

Soon, the young pirate was standing in the middle of a circle formed of twenty formidable men.

"Roronoa Zoro ! what an impressive move." Said one of the men licking his thick lips. The man looked at his fellow crew mates , and tilted his head slightly toward Zoro. The mean understood his gesture and launched to attack the green haired swordsman.

Vivi looked away from the window and ran towards the nest's door. "Where do you think you are going?" asked Koza as he grabbed her by the waist.

"I have to help him , they'll kill him Koza . LET ME GO !" screamed the princess.

Koza & Vivi turned their heads toward the window after hearing the loud screams of agony. Vivi gasped in fear.

They looked from the window and saw the corpses of all the twenty men laying motionless on the floor , while Zoro was still standing in his same spot.

After few seconds , the rest of the Strawhats where on the deck prepared for the fight.

"Oi Marimo ! what is going on ?" asked Sanji casually , lighting his cigarette.

"It is a party , you shitty cook." Answered Zoro tying his black bandana over his head.

"ATTACK !" Yelled the pirate captain.

A tall man with a red mowhak hair and a thin red mustahce, dressed in a blue suit, puuled a sword out of his waist band and walked towards Zoro.

"Monsieur, would you honor me tih being my opponetnt in this fight." Asked the man politely, bowing before Zoro.

'What the hell is wrong with him !' wondered Zoro but nodded at the weird man and smireked. He never walked away from a fight no matter how weird.

A muscular tanned man, with a purple mowhak hair and a long grown purple beard , threw a punch at Sanji, who easily blocked it with his leg. 'Damn he is strong.' Thought the blond pirate.

A large group of weird shaped pirates , with mowhak hair style, jumped on the Sunny and fought with the Strawhats. Chakka and Pell joined the fight too , protecting the princess was their uttermost duty.

"Go find Vivi " ordered Chakka to Nami & Robin after saving them from a deadly sowrd attack. The ladies ran to the crow's nest.

"HEAD FOR THE CROW'S NEST ! THE PRINCESS IS THERE !" Yelled the mowhaks captain.

Luffy made his way directly towards the captain " FIGHT ME ! " yelled the rubber man as he jumped on the mowhak's ship. The sinster captain smirked in reponse .

Brook , Franky and Usopp sneaked to the enemies' ship to assist Luffy in his fight; they blew off , sliced , and chased who was left of the mowhaks on the ship.

Nami & Robin ran to the corw's nest which was already plagued by the attacking pirates."Oh no ! " said Nami in shock.

"Don't worry Vivi , I won't let them hurt you." Said Koza , pulling out his sword and standing front of Vivi in a protective manner.

The mowhak pirates pushed the nest's door strongly , and walked into the nest. Koza tightened his fist around his sword as his sweat dropped ; they were numerous.

"Get her boys !" ordered one of the pirates and soon his subordinates ran toward Vivi.

Koza succeeded in blocking them away from her, but only for a short while. Four men attacked him , throwing him against the wall and kicking him mercilessly.

Vivi was distracted by Koza and didn't notice the two men who moved slyly towards her, holding her by the arm firmly. Luckily for the princess , giant hands & electric bolts crushed & burnt them.

"Nami ! Robin ! Thank you." Said Vivi happily though the ladies' assiance didn't last long. A group of even more hideous looking pirates appeared. The straw hat ladies and the blond sowrdsman tried their best to stop them , but their efforts were all in vain.

"Hehehehe ! look who is helpless now " spoke a pirate evilly as he approached Vivi , who grabbed Koza's sword and prepared to fight.
