Fighting til' the wars won,

The soft click was what drew Smoker's gaze.
Trafalgar was down. He had the bastard pinned with his jutte to his throat and the other man looked like he was having serious difficulty breathing. However, he looked up when the sharply calm voice filtered to his ears.
"Let him go, Smoker."
He blinked several times to try and clear his obviously failing vision, but the image before him remained unchanged.
Cat Burglar Nami had Tashigi in a headlock, the muzzle of a pistol held level with the other woman's temple. She looked calm, collected, and deadly serious.
Smoker was momentarily stunned. Not only because Tashigi had been taken captive (that, alone, was weird) but also that it had been Straw Hat's navigator who did it. Usually the former Arlong pirate was more inclined to use long distance attacks on a grand scale (or run away, if it came to outright confrontation). Actually holding a captive (and threatening their life, no less) was odd behavior for her.
However, the flinty look in her eyes had him slowly backing off, lifting the seastone from the Heart Captain's neck and stepping away, tossing the weapon aside and holding his hands away from his body.
Law sat up, one hand rubbing his throat while he coughed. Slowly, he stood, backing up until he was level with the Straw Hat, who still had a firm hold on Tashigi.
"Now, Nami-ya." he said. And though his voice was raspy, she obeyed, shoving Tashigi away and grabbing Law's arm in the same movement. Smoker made to charge them, but the familiar blue circle had already formed around them and, in the blink of an eye, they were gone.

"Don't you dare pull that kind of stunt ever again!"
"..."
"I swear, it's like mmmph..."

"..."
"I'm fine, Nami-ya."
"..."
"You're cute when you pout."
"Don't think you're off the hook that easy, buddy."
"Maybe next time we should pick a more exotic vacation spot."
"Alabasta's nice this time of year."

I love it when Nami's a badass.
