sarge1130 - I'm very anxious to see her flashback in the manga, I also loved who Oda showed that power is not only physical. And yes she did devour on crewmember during Fishman Island arc. And, yes, during this meet Law had already escaped, but there something else that I will soon reveal.
makogirlY14 - Thanks for the comment, and Big Mom while not always nice as at least a good person to her children, in my fic only recently that she started to behave strangely and it was one of the reasons Bonney started her own journey. And, yes, this falashback is after Law escape. In my fic everything is basically the same, but after Rocinante's death Law stayed on the treasure's chest, so he never got away from Doflamingo.
SEllen23 - Now I can imagine Luffy's hat smiling and singing while being extremally angry to Luffy. I'm glad that you like the chapter, hope you like this one as well!
This chapter is more lighter, more fun, hope you guys like it! And there is some notes in the end!
"Big Who?"
Zoro and Chopper lowered their heads in shame and frustration – how had Luffy forgotten who was Big Mom, was beyond them.
He has even declared war against her!
How could he forget!
Bonney looked at Luffy incredulously with the situation, how he didn't know about her mother, it's BigMom for God sake; she wanted his head and his cook.
Not to mention that a woman with her mother size and power is not someone that you easily forget.
Luffy, but kept his head fallen to his side, waiting for someone to tell him what was happening –
The problem was not with Law? Since when it involved the tantrums from the pink haired woman?
And then a cry caught their attention, the man that helped them, now just a baby, cry compulsively as Bepo tried unsuccessfully to calm him down.
"Oh My God! There is a baby here!" Luffy said amazed just now noticing the baby.
Bonney hit her forehead and rubbed her face in frustration - Is the boy retarded or what?
"She turned him into a baby when he got in the way of her attack on us."
Zoro said and Luffy's eyes widened as if everything made sense.
"You want to hurt Torao again."
"What?"
Bonney had no time to defend herself when Luffy came to the conclusion that she could and was going to make Law go through all that suffering again, he gently placed Law on the floor and stood looking serious at her.
"You better get out of here."
She looked at Luffy, opened her mouth and closed it - it was as if she lacked words – and that thought alone irritated her like no other, she wouldn't let a clown like him tell her what to do, she's a captain too, one of the worst generation just like him and if she wants to be as powerful as her mother she have to be imposing as well.
"I will not leave without answers!"
Luffy walked toward her with quiet steps, but his expression didn't show the same calmness.
"I will not repeat myself. You hurt Torao, no one hurts Torao."
"Is ... Is that so? Because he hurt me too! He knows how to fix what is happening, I know! And he will help me, wanting it or not, he owes me that!"
Zoro could see what Luffy was going to do even before he do.
He knew that Luffy already had given a slap on Alvira, on Monet and even on Vivi, but he still found it strange to see his captain being aggressive towards a woman, when he let the Sea Witch do whatever she wants, like punch, screw and order him around, and he never raised a finger at her.
The Sea Witch is a dangerous woman indeed.
But whatever was going to happen didn't happened because everyone decided to arrive on the scene at the same time and in the same elegant style characteristic of them.
This included the Cook - who God knows why decided to enter by the window, when he could use the perfectly hole where the door used to be - and kicked Luffy while throwing kisses to the annoying woman.
~~~~ Sanji ~~~~
Sanji knew he had to be quick, if Luffy was using Conqueror's Haki the thing was to be serious - after all he only saw Luffy use it three times.
To him, Luffy was probably facing someone very powerful or dangerous.
Without knowing if Zoro was there with their Captain, Sanji decided to go there as fast as he could.
He was confident that the rest of crew could find Luffy without him and so with his long and powerful legs he started to run faster and faster to the point that no one else was able to accompany him.
Upon arriving at the place where his Observation Haki felt Luffy and Zoro, Sanji saw a huge hole where a door should be and decided to use a strategic entry to surprise the enemy.
But the one who was surprised was him.
He breaks through the window, ready to kick ass when his eyes spotted a beautiful woman with silky hair that was swaying in the breeze coming from the inexistent window.
And then he saw his air head Captain about to punch that Goddess of Love!
He didn't think twice and kicked Luffy, while he kicked his own Captain he threw kisses to the woman who should be frightened by the whole matter.
He fell to the ground with elegance, turned on his knees to her; he took her hand and gave her a gentleman kiss.
"Oh my beautiful lady, in what could this humble cook serve you?"
She looked confused at him, certainly in shock to see someone educated after spending so much time alongside those primates.
But then Chopper came flying at him and hit his head.
Chopper? Flying?
"Oie, Pervert Shitty Cook! She's the enemy!" Zoro who had just throw Chopper spoke mad at him.
Sanji then looked at her and then at Zoro, an angelic face and a scowling face, a fallen angel and a Neanderthal. He shook his head and said to Zoro.
"Naaah, no, you're wrong."
"What you said, Eyebrows?!"
"She's not bad, it's just a misunderstanding, I know, I can feel it. My heart is never wrong."
"Only it's not your heart that is speaking here! It's your shitty co ..."
Bonney was irritated by that bullshit and decided to take advantage of their distraction – the blondie wanted to be cute, well, she thinks children were cute and she could bet that he must have been a very cute child.
Sanji, however, noticed the attack and jumped backwards only to stumble on Law who was on the ground, exactly in the same place that Luffy had left. Sanji lost his balance and fell, his butt hitting the ground.
He looked at Bonney his face getting redder with embarrassment - he was so stylish and suave, to fall in front of that lady, what horror!
Zoro saw Sanji's face and began laughing so hard he had to hold his stomach and wipe away his tears.
Bonney, as she look at them, had no more reactions.
What is going on? They are stupid? Or just sick?
~~~~ Straw Hats and Heart Pirates ~~~~
Robin and the others soon meet Nami, they could hear her complaining from afar, she was clearly angry at Sanji who apparently got away running like crazy man.
To Robin it never stopped being amazing see Sanji run the way he does, she find it so interesting that their cook can swim as fast as a merman and run like no one she saw before – maybe one day he could be more faster than Kizaro! Improbable but the dream ends only if the dreamer awakes, so she would keep dreaming about this possibility.
Usopp used their brief pause told to Penguim that it was he who taught Sanji how to run that fast, and that he was letting the cook have his moment of fame.
"To where Sanji go?" Robin asked.
"And I know? He ran like an idiot!" Nami replied angry.
"Don't worry, my friends! I can locate him supeer easy!"
Everyone looked at Franky blankly.
"It is something that Sanji asked for me to do, so he could find Zoro more easily, since most of times it is him who go out looking for swordsman."
Franky explained, and from his hand came a device that looked like a radar, with a static point that was flashing.
"Here he is."
"But if you have the radar, how will Sanji find Zoro?" Usopp asked concerned, they would now have to worry about another lost nakama.
"The cook doesn't need it; he always knows where Zoro is." Robin said, smiling.
Usopp and Nami rolled their eyes to the comment, Brook took his violin from somewhere and hummed "Yohohoho it's love! What I'm feeling! This must be love!"
Penguin didn't understand anything and Sachi was more concerned with Franky's equipment, his eyes practically shining.
Soon they arrived at the scene, and Franky's radar was useless because they didn't need it to know who and where their friends were.
There was just one house with a hole instead of a door, and coming from there they could hear two familiar voices cursing, Chopper lecturing someone, Luffy laughing, and a baby crying.
Baby crying?
~~~~ Inside the house ~~~~
Sanji got up almost immediately and ignoring everything and everyone he went straight into Zoro, grabbing his clothes.
Chopper and Bepo pulled Law away from the destruction that the two certainly would cause, and Bonney not knowing what to do with simply followed the them.
They clash with each other, one pushed the other pulled, that would soon become something else, something really destructive.
Knowing this and remembering the baby in the room, far away from him, Chopper decided to warn them.
"Your assholes! Can you two stop this bullshit! Law is hurt and we have a baby here!"
Luffy was laughing completely unfazed by everything and in the middle of all the noise and people the baby got stressed and started to cry.
Sanji processed the information faster, and stopped his antics for a moment before he or Zoro end up stepping or falling on the poor child.
He looked at Zoro and kicked him away, then immediately bent down and picked up the baby in his arms turning his back to Zoro, trying to protect the child as much as he could.
Zoro noticed it and aborted his attack, losing his balance, but he knew he would not have fallen if not for the cook that even in that situation made time to pull his foot.
Son of a curled bastard!
On the ground Zoro began with his verbal attacks.
"What the fuck, you shitty faggot?!"
"Shut up, Marimo! And stop yelling, you are scaring the baby!"
"Me? You are the one screaming in his ear!"
"But, but your big forehead and ugly face and moss head is scaring him!"
"How can you know it? And I don't have a big forehead!" Zoro then mumbled "You only disturbed us, we are making progress here!"
"Sorry? Did I heard it right? Disturbed you? And what wonderful progress you were having here, you moron!?"
"Perverted!"
"Mosshead."
"Eyebrows."
"Douchebag"
"Faggot"
"Come here and I'll show you the faggot!"
They got up and again head-butted each other, one trying to push the other using their forehead to do so.
Luffy laughed, slapping Law that was unconscious, as if he were only sleeping and was missing something hilarious.
"Look at this, Torao. Shihihihi!"
"Luffyyy! Don't hit the Law like that, he will not wake up like this!"
"Shihihi, my bad!" Luffy said playfully slapping Law one last time.
And then at the same time everyone entered in the establishment.
They got inside with style, with Brook doing a proper sound effect, with Franky saying "Suuuuuper!" while flashing lights and confetti and Usopp promising to save everyone, because he is "GOD Usopp! With more than 8,000 followers!"
Nami went through it all with long, heavy steps and punched the three men who gave her such headache.
She hit Luffy because he knocked out everyone in the perimeter and probably drawing the attention of some authority.
She hit Sanji because he ran like a madman leaving her behind.
And she hit Zoro because he was within her reach.
Robin quietly laughed.
And Penguim and Sachi rushed towards Bepo and Law, jumping on them with tears in their eyes, saying that they were worried sick.
Chopper yelled at them because they were on top of his patient, making his life difficult and possibly hurting Law.
And Bonney, she just stared incredulously at the situation.
In what have I gotten myself into?
About the use of the word 'faggot'. I don't know how it is in other countries, but in my country the word 'faggot' can be used offensively and also as a friendly joke.
It is normal for two guys who know each other and are friends to call each other 'fag/faggot' during a joke or argument.
That's why Zoro called Sanji a 'faggot' and Sanji did not got offended.
Okay that's all!
Till next chapter!
