Tashigi unsheathed her katana, ready to fight Zoro.

"Tashigi. Not right now. We have other things to worry about." Smoker turned around revealing that he was dragging a pirate on the ground. She had curly long black hair.

"Oi, that hurt! Be a little careful, jeez." The pirate said. She looked like she was only 15, maybe even younger.

Tashigi sheathed her sword. And turned around, walking away with Smoker. She looked back with a cold chilling stare. She only seemed to be staring at Zoro. Nami looked at Zoro. Zoro also seemed to be staring only at Tashigi too.

Zoro took his hand off his katana. "Tch, how disappointing." Zoro said with a frown.

Nami suddenly couldn't breathe. Her heart was pounding too fast. She clutched her chest. "Ah," she moaned.

"Eh? Nami, are you okay?" Chopper asked. Everyone turned to her.

She fell to the ground. The last thing she remembered was Chopper screaming "Nami!"

She woke up in Chopper's room again.

"Eh? Oh, Chopper. I fainted again, didin't I..." Nami said angry. She wished she was a bit stronger.

"Yeah. But Nami..." Chopper said, with a sense of being scared.

"Hm...? What is it Chopper?" Nami asked, smiling.

"It's not from a lovesickness this time..." Chopper admitted.

"W-What! Not from... Then what?" Nami asked, a bit scared.

"I...It's..." Chopper started sweating...

CHAPTER 5: Stupid, confused heart!

"Okay, come on Chopper, you're making me nervous!" Nami's heart started beating faster and faster.

"It... It's just the heat. Just heatstroke... You're just dehydrated." Chopper explained.

"Chopper! Don't scare me like that. Jeez. So as long as I, like, drink lots of water... I'll be fine, right...?" Nami asked.

"Uh... y-yeah..." Chopper said as he sweated nervously.

"Okay. Well... I-I'll see you later, I guess..." Nami stuttered. She was unsure whether she believed Chopper. But she decided to just trust him for now.

"Y-yeah. Bye..." Chopper stuttered. "It'd also probably be best to stay on the ship for a while... because your body is reallysensitive to heat."

"Right," Nami exits and slowly closes his door. She takes a deep breath in and then out. She walks away.

"That means... I was never in love with anyone... especially anyone on this crew..." Nami started laughing at herself, at how idiotic she felt. "Am I supposed to be proud or upset about this..." She laughed, leaning on the edge of the ship, feeling the breeze whilst looking out the calm sea.

BACK TO CHOPPER

"Oh no... I should've just told her the truth. Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! What do I do?! What do I do? How am I supposed to tell her something like this? I'm the worst doctor on this planet…" Chopper thought, running crazily around the room, nervously and sweating a lot.

"Oi, Chopper," Zoro entered the room.

"EH. Y-yes..." Chopper replied.

"I probably shouldn't tell Zoro anything about this situation at all…" Chopper thought.

Zoro walked up to Chopper. "You're making a lot of noise in here. Is everything oka-"

"ZOROOOOO!" Chopper cried. "I DID SOMETHING BAD!" Chopper clung onto Zoro.

"What the hell….?" Zoro was confused. But he sat down anyway and listened as Chopper explained what happened.

"So… you did something like that, huh...?" Zoro said calmly, but in a way that seemed as though what Chopper had done was a little disappointing as a doctor. At least that's what Chopper thought.

"Y-yeah. And I just don't know how to tell her the truth…" Chopper fidgeted around.

"Whatever. Just tell her the truth. She probably won't care," Zoro got up off his seat and started walking out the room.

But before he left, he heard Chopper whisper "You'll just never understand…" Zoro didn't know what Chopper meant by that but he left.

"I wonder how Nami will take this… That I lied to her…" Chopper quietly talked, unsure whether he should really tell Nami or not.

"Hehehehhe," Chopper laughed to himself. "It's not even that huge of a lie. Even if I told her, I'm sure she'll forgive me. But… Nami is a girl with strong feelings… Unlike Zoro, Nami

TO ZORO

Zoro was about to go sleep, but then he spotted Nami leaning on the edge of the ship.

"Eh?" Zoro stared at her. Her hair was flying through the hair smoothly and she was smiling. "Oi Nami…" Zoro called out.

Nami turned to face Zoro. "Oh, Zoro, what are you doi-"

"I … I wanted to say… that…" Zoro was unsure where he was bringing this conversation …

"Eh?! Wh-what is this?! Shut up heart, stop beating so fast for this idiot… What is he going to say… I can't… Take this… My feelings are way too confused…" Nami thought. Her mind was spinning and her heart was beating fast.

"I wanted to say that… Chopper seriously looked like he wanted to tell you something important bye now." Zoro rushed and started walking away.

"Oh… Okay then, whatever…" Nami seemed to be a little disappointed. "E-eh? What's that?" Nami looked out on the island where they were still docked.

Zoro stopped to look too. "It looks like Luffy and everyone else… But why are they running so fast…?"

Nami and Zoro''s mouth dropped when they noticed the thousands of navy soldiers chasing after them. There were ships that they could just see out in the sea too. They were shooting cannons that were getting closer and closer to hitting the ship. The ship continued to wobble all over the place from the huge waves that the cannons were causing.

"HOW DID WE NOT NOTICE THOSE SHIPS BEFORE!" Zoro yelled.

"Because the writer didn't think this chapter through properly!" is what I wanted Nami to say because it's true... but no.

"What's going on?!" Chopper exited his room.

"What you wanted to say can wait…" Nami yelled as she started steering the Sunny out into the sea, away from the ships and soldiers.

Luffy and the rest made it on the ship. As everyone was tired and panting, Luffy just laughed.

"Grrr… LUFFY! THIS IS NO TIME TO BE LAUGHING! THIS IS YOUR FAULT THEY STARTED CHASING US!" Usopp slapped Luffy on the back of his head.

"Luffy, we'll have to pass those two navy ships over there because that's our only exit. You guys will have to protect the ship from incoming cannons though or we won't be able to get through." Nami pointed at the two ships.

"Right, got it." Luffy jumped up along with everyone and they all looked out for any attacks.

"Oi, Nami," Zoro called out. "We're closing in on the two ships!"

"I know, idiot! I can see!" Nami focused. "Hey, Franky, can't you set up Coup de burst? It looks like we won't make it out without that right now..."

"Ah, right!" Franky ran away to ready the coup de burst.

"Eh…?" Sanji looked at one of the ships. He spotted a beautiful girl tied up by another bunch of pirates, being forced to jump off the ship at gunpoint.

Sanji dived in and swam after her.

"Oi! What is that shitty idiot cook doing?!" Zoro yelled.

"Someone on the other ship fell in…" Robin replied.

They all spotted Sanji pop up in the ocean carrying an unconscious, young girl.

"AH! Sanji! Grab on!" Luffy extended his hand to Sanji who was reaching to grab on.

But suddenly, WOOSH! Coup de burst...

"Ah! Sanji!" Usopp yelled.

Luffy laughed as he cheerfully brought Sanji on board.

"Ah, I was a little worried there..." Robin sighed.

"ROBIN-CHWAN WAS WORRIED ABOUT ME, " Sanji smiled creepily as he muttered random gibberish words.

"Because you probably would've died out there if it weren't were Luffy, idiot.!" Usopp slapped him continuously as Robin giggled.

"But a man cannot leave a beautiful woman to die out there just like that.

"Uh, hey guys, doesn't this girl look a bit familiar?" Luffy asked staring at the unconscious girl. Everyone crowded around her and they all agreed.

"EH?! WASN'T THIS THE PIRATE WHO WAS BEING DRAGGED AROUND BY SMOKER?!" Chopper yelled.

"EH?!" The crew came to the realization that that girl really was the pirate Smoker and Tashigi caught.
