A/N: I uploaded two chapters in a row , to make the word count higher. :D
Anyways , there is some blood in this one. To note , Leo is not a killer. I'll go into his thought process next time.
Enjoy the chapter or whatever , I need sleep.
I don't own One Piece , only Leo.
Leo strolled down the street where he saw the pirates ran away to. Not the Buggy pirates , if he even saw them , they would be dead already. These were the pirates he had to silently assist in escaping , because they fought Buggy , he wanted to get their help.
So there he was , with his beloved pistol in his hand , walking towards the trio. The green haired one , Zoro if this was the man that he heard about ,
saw him first. Leo's hood was down , so they could see his features clearly , though the one in the cage was distracted fighting a dog. He stopped a couple of metres in front of the famous bounty hunter. Then sat down.
''I distracted them towards the other side of town.'' Leo said , gaining everybodies attention.''Just thought I'd help you out since we have a common enemy.''
he added. Zoro rose an eyebrow at that while Luffy's face was blank.
''Common enemy? You after Buggy's bounty or something?'' Zoro asked , he didn't think this kid was strong , except that weird pistol he had. How do you reload without a slide?
''Not really , he hurt this town , they sent a bottle message , I was the one who found it.'' the stranger replied. They must be desperate to try bottle messages ,
they hardly worked out.
''That's lucky for them , I guess. What do you plan to do?'' the orange haired girl asked , he was just one man after all. Leo looked at her.
''Well ,you guys wanna kick his ass right?''Luffy grinned at that ''so maybe we can team up or something.'' Leo finished.
''Sure , we'll be nakama!''Luffy exclaimed.''I'll start with that cage you are in.'' he grinned and crouched in front of Luffy , his gun was raised his hand , and gripped the lock , to everyones shock.
''What are you doi-'' Nami's words were stuck in her throat as Leo broke the lock with his bare hand.
''You guys ran away from Buggy right?'' A voice came behind them , which turned out to be the mayor of the town.
''These guys did , I came because of the message you sent.'' Leo answered , and the mayors eyes widened.
''Someone actually responded?'' he asked himself , shock evident in his voice.
''Well , I need to find something , so I'll catch up with you later Luffy.'' Leo called back while walking away.
''Okay bye!'' Luffy waved after him.
-Some time later-
Okay , what Leo didn't expect a burning house when he came back.''What happened here?'' he asked Nami. It was just a house to him , so it didn't make any sense why she looked so sad.
''This store , was that dogs treasure.'' Nami said between sobs. Leo's gaze hardened. He knew what treasure meant to someone , even a dog.''This store was his dead masters last possession.'' that made his blood boil. His eyes were closed during the entire counter with Zoro and Luffy. But now they were open and he was rolling off killing intent.
''Where is the one that did this?'' he asked through gritted teeth. Nami looked at him in shock , wasn't he a pirate or something? She answered anyways.
''He just is right there , when you pass the corner.'' with that , Leo walked away. What Nami didn't notice was that his gun was in his right hand.
-With the Beast tamer-
''That was some nice food for you Richie.'' Mohji exclaimed and his lion happily nodded , still munching on leftovers. The sound of footsteps drew his attention.
''Who is there?'' he asked , but got no response. Mohji finally got up from his spot on the ground to see the person that was walking towards them.
It was Leo , of course but Mohji didn't know that.
''It's your death.'' he answered in a cold , emotionless voice. Mohji smirked , who could beat him and his lion Richie? ''We both know you can't beat me but I'll humor you.''
he said , climbing on top of his lion.
''Get rea-'' but before he could finish , Leo punched him. It was just a normal punch , that flew him to the other end of the street. Leo stood on top of the surprised lion ,
holding his pistol downwards , in line with the lions head. And to Mohji's horror , pulled the trigger. Blood splattered all over Leo's boots , shorts and the street.
Mohji was furious and scared at the same time , this man had no mercy , coupled with power. He got up to his feet , and took out a dagger to at least defend himself.
He looked up , but to his shock Leo wasn't there. Confused , he looked around. Only to be met with a fist to the face. He flew towards a wall , denting it.
Suddenly , Leo grabbed his collar and started dragging him.
''What do you want with me?'' he cried in desperation. Leo suddenly stopped , then knelt down to take the leftover food box in front of Richie's corpse.
Then he dragged him towards where the dog was. ''You are going to apologize to the dog for destroying his treasure.'' Leo said , shocking Mohji. This was all about that stupid mutt? ''That's why you killed Richie?'' he asked in anger. ''Yes , and if you don't apologize , you'll be joining him.'' was the immediate response. Mohji gulped.
-In front of Chouchou-
Nami was terrified. That was the only word that could describe what she was feeling. First , she heard dragging sounds , followed by light footsteps with squelching sounds following it. The source was Leo and Mohji , which explained the dragging sound , he was dragging him after all. But what terrified her wasn't that ,
oh no. It was all the blood. Leo's footsteps left bloodprints , which were getting smothered over Mohji. His boots , shorts , basically his lower half was all blood.
He stopped in front of Chouchou and put down a small box. Upon closer inspection , one could see it was a pet food box.
''Sorry , it was all I could get back.'' Leo apologized with a bitter smile. His left cheek had blood on it too , which made his smile all the more crazy looking.
Suddenly his face hardened , and he turned to Mohji.
''Now , apologize.'' he ordered and Nami could see Mohji visibly shaking in fear. Leo dragged him in front of Chouchou , at face level with the dog and repeated the orders.
''I'm sorry.'' he obeyed. ''That wasn't convincing , say it like you mean it.'' Leo ordered.
''I'm sorry!'' Mohji said , tears streaming down his face. Leo dragged him into the middle of the street and kicked his face , hard.''Now get the hell out of my sight.''
Mohji didn't waste time and ran.
Leo sighed and lied down next to the dog. Chouchou , not minding the blood on his face , barked happily and licked him , drawing giggles from the young boy.
Nami had to admit , he looked quite cute. But there was a question that had to be answered.
''Hey Leo?'' Nami asked , not noticing Luffy behind her. ''Hmm?'' he replied , urging her to continue.
''What happened to the lion?''
Not missing a beat , Leo answered. ''I killed it.'' his face had no regrets , he was quite happy with his accomplishment. Nami nodded grimly. There was a loud boom and a crash.
''That was another Buggy ball.'' Mayor said , apparently he was there too.
BAM!
'' That was my house.'' Mayor exclaimed.
''Zoro was in there.'' Luffy and Leo said , running towards the house. Wait a minute , how did Leo know that? Nami just shrugged, he had agreed on working with the idiot even if it meant associating herself with a swordman and Leo.
