Girl Falls into One Piece

Chapter 11

Edit: 7/7/2016 Time: 8:16 pm

Fighting Kuro and his Crew

We followed Usopp to the slope and he said he had to get something and we waiting for him to get back. It was night time by the time I heard him groaning down hill since it was sunset when he left. We all looked over to see what he was doing. I got up from my laying position on the ground next to Luffy and looked to see Usopp rolling a large barrel of something over the hill.

I jogged over to him and grabbed the second barrel with a grunt and walked up the hill, the barrel on my shoulder. I looked back at Usopp, his jaw was dropped and I said. "Come on, let's go already."

He nodded quickly and I walked back up the hill. The weird thing is that the barrel was filled with liquid and was sloshing inside. It had an nasty smell to it too. I set the barrel on the top of the hill and Nami asked me. "Are you some kind of monster!?"

I heard Usopp huffing as he dropped the barrel next to mine. I said to Nami. "No, I just train a lot since I'm a swordsman."

She shook her head at me with a frustrated look on her face and I chuckled with Zoro and Luffy grinned. Luffy knows how much I trained my ass off back home and Zoro knows the training a swordsman needs. I sat down on the ground next to Luffy. Usopp then showed us that the barrels contained oil and he pushed it down the hill so they would slip. It was a smart idea, I had to admit.

He took the barrel I brought up and popped the lid after he dropped it down to the ground. Now the whole slope was filled with black sludge. Luffy was sitting near it and had his foot almost on top of it. I had a hand gripping his vest so that he didn't slip down. The rest of them were sitting around the hill, looking bored out of their minds. Luffy said with a grin. "Usopp, I have to hand it to you, you know how to fight dirty."

Usopp grinned at this and looked proud. "Of course I am, there is no one that can beat me with a slingshot or fight as dirty as me!"

I smirked and murmured. "Now that I can believe."

I guess I was not as quiet as I thought because Zoro gave a snort. Now, we were back to sitting around. I pulled Luffy away from it a bit and moved up the hill. He pouted at me, but I ignored it with raised eyebrows. "Stay away from it; I'm not diving in oil if you fall."

He narrowed his eyes. Then he gave me sort of a smirk and moved his foot close to the oil. I narrowed my own eyes and said. "Luffy."

He moved away after looking at my face with slumped shoulders. I grinned to myself and scooted back a little, pulling my sword out and a rag out of my pockets. Whistling, I started cleaning the blade. I felt stares on my head so I stopped and looked up. Nami and Usopp were staring at me and I looked to see Zoro laying down and taking a nap. I asked with a raised eyebrow. "What?"

Usopp asked. "What was that?"

I shrugged. "Me and Luffy was having a discussion."

He was on his back looking at the sky, his hat on his chest. He looked at us with his head cocked to one side, looking confused. I said. "Nothing, Luf."

He nodded and looked back at the sky. Nami and Usopp looked away and I continued to clean my sword on both sides. I finished and decided to follow Zoro's example and lay on my back after sheathing my sword and taking a nap.

/ / / / / / / / /

I woke up to hear Luffy complaining about there being no pirates to fight. I had to agree with him there. I looked at the sky to the sun disappearing fast; they should be here by now. Zoro was already up. I yawned quietly as I stood up and looked around. Zoro said. "Maybe they overslept."

I thought about it, that's possible. I could of if Luffy was not so loud. We looked around and then Nami said. "Wait, I think I hear something."

I looked at her and walked closer. I frowned; I could hear what sounded like battle cries coming closer. I said. "Yeah, me too! They sound like…battle cries?"

Then Usopp suddenly shouted. "Oh no!"

We all looked at him and he said. "They are on the other slope on the other side of the island!"

We all stared at him in shock. "What!?"

After a second, Nami said. "Dammit, my treasure is over there!"

I sighed and rolled my eyes at her words. "Can you think about anything else, you Greedy Witch?!"

She glared at me. "It's mine and who are you call a Greedy Witch, She-hulk!?"

I glared and opened my mouth to say something, but Usopp said hurriedly. "There is another slope in the north three minutes from here."

Luffy grabbed my wrist and called as he dragged me. "Okay, we'll be there in 20 seconds!"

Here's the thing with my directions, I don't get lost as much as Zoro (I don't think anyone can), but it isn't the greatest. I never had any reason for navigation or a compass in modern time and since I never really left the island, I never paid attention to it.

I just let Luffy lead me in the forest. I ran with him and we left the forest and ran into Zoro and then we finally found the slope. Grinning I victory, I ran toward it with Zoro and Luffy in tow. I heard pirates fighting and called out. "You hear that?"

They both said yeah and we got to the top of the slope, all the pirates were rushing at us. Me and Zoro were slicing and stabbing (non-vital) and then kicking then down the hill to land at the bottom. I rolled my shoulders. "Man, that was too easy."

Zoro said, looking down boredly. "You can say that again."

Luffy huffed. "I wanted more of a challenge."

I looked down the slope to see a beat up Usopp, Nami, the sprawled out pirates and that weird guy we met on the road that reminds me of Michael Jackson and a weird boat with a black cat figurehead. I wrinkled my nose; I'm more of a dog person. Zoro was yelling at Nami about leaving him stuck at the slope with oil. I looked at him and saw oil stains all over him. I smirked and said. "Hey Zoro?"

He stopped yelling at Nami and looked at me, asking. "What?"

I raised my eyebrow with a teasing grin. "You have a little something on your shirt."

He looked down on reflex and gave me a death glare. "SHUT UP!"

I only snickered, I dealt with angrier people. Try pissing off Grandpa. He looked back over the slope. That weird Jango guy with the fake discolored beard spoke and took out that thing on a chain. I looked away and was sure the rest of us did too. "After 1, 2 Jango, you will all begin to grow stronger, your wounds will heal."

Luffy asked what he was doing and Nami explained. "It looks like hypnosis."

I nodded in agreement. A second later I looked back to see one of them actually smash a cliff and break off a chunk. I blinked in shock. "Hey look, it works."

Nami said with a glare. "Oh, what would make you think that?"

I made a face at her and she turned away with a huff. I said. "Okay, Zoro and Luffy we will-"

I froze as I looked at Luffy's face shadowed by his face and then he stared growling. I said, getting why he was doing it. "Are you serious, Luffy?!"

Zoro, Nami and Usopp looked at him. Zoro said. "You got to be kidding me."

I shook my head with a sigh. "Nope."

Luffy gave a yell and charged at the pirates bellow yelling. "Gum-Gum…Gatling!"

With his rubber powers, he punched them like a million times and they crashed to the ground beaten up like before. The he ran toward the remaining men and they ran away, screaming in fear like little girls. But, he ran past them and grabbed the Cat mast of their ship. I watched in a bit of amazement and amusement as he broke the mast and held it over his head.

I was looking ahead and didn't notice Jango pull out that circle disc until it was too late. "I, 2 Jango, fall asleep."

The thing fell on Luffy and I was so happy he ate the rubber fruit or I would have freaked out. I then felt my eyes closing and a sleepiness take over me, I quickly put my sword back to my side and fell on my back, cursing the Jango guy in my head and fell asleep.

3rd Person

The Black Cat pirates looked at her surprised while Nami and Usopp yelled. "SHE FELL FOR IT!?"

Zoro looked down at her snoring form, looked at Luffy's snoring form under the mast and back at her. Zoro was with her longer than the other two and saw she was bit different than Luffy, more mature. They might have been more similar than he thought. Little did he know, the other two were thinking the same thoughts.

With a sigh, he picked her up, throwing her over his shoulder and brought her away from everything; it would be annoying without her help. Other than Luffy (who was asleep), Mace was another good fighter (who was also asleep). He dropped on the edge of the slope. Looks like he was on his own for now. The other two were looking nervously at her. That Jango freak said. "Come on, Meowban Brothers!"

With a sigh and shake of the head, Zoro zoned back on the fight, knowing it would be fine and she should get up soon.

Mace POV

I woke up with a groan and sat up. Luffy was yelling at Nami and she was on the ground. I blinked, not knowing what was going on. Zoro was in the middle of the area instead of the hill like me and facing some guy with big muscles and was fat at the same time if that was possible. I frowned when I saw that guy that was named Kuro, the hidden pirate. "What's the bastard pirate doing here?"

Nami shouted. "If we weren't sleeping, you would know!"

I frowned and tried to think and my shoulders slumped. I can't believe I fell for that trick that weird guy Jango did when I was annoyed at Luffy for doing the same thing. I muttered. "Never mind, let's not bring that up again."

I swear I saw a smirk on Zoro's face. Kuro ignored me and then my eyes widened when I saw Usopp behind him. What the Hell? I was even more surprised when I saw the sickly girl Kaya here too. Shouldn't she be in a...I don't know BED!? Also, Kuro is trying to kill her! Usopp tackled Kaya out of the way so Kuro didn't touch her. I heard her ask. "Usopp, are you okay?"

He said he was and asked what she was doing here. I think that is something we'd all like to know. Kaya said in a clearly upset tone. "I'm sorry I didn't believe you Usopp, that Kurahadol is a lying pirate."

I walked down the hill so I was more in the fight than what looked like hiding. No one paid any attention to me so I just stood by Luffy. I looked down and frowned slightly to see Nami passed out. I looked her over, other than a wound in the shoulder, she seemed to be fine. Kuro said. "This is no place for a lady, please leave Madam."

I rolled my eyes, after all of this, did he really think his lie was going to still work. Kaya cried out. "Please stop it, stop this right not Kurahadol!"

Calling him by his butler name will only hurt her more. She went on. "I know what you're doing, Merry told me."

Who the hell is that? Kuro's crew saw her and was screaming to kill her. I tensed with narrowed eyes and put a hand on the hilt of my sword. Kaya said that Kuro could have her fortune and to leave, but he said. "I'll gladly take your fortune, but that isn't enough. The thing I really want is peace."

Then, why would he become a pirate? Hell, I know pirates take pride in their bounties; I know Ace is being all satisfied where he is because he has a really good bounty.

Kuro said. "You see, I have spent the last 3 years earning the trust of the village. To be honest I find this place relaxing and will live with this subline piece of mind. The glorious comfort of a peaceful life will be all mine forever and ever and in short, these pirates are coming and you will leave your fortune and die. Kaya, these things will happen!"

I snorted at this and asked Luffy. "What kind of pirate is he anyway?"

Luffy shrugged with a frown. "I don't know."

Kaya was digging for something in her jacket and I blanched when I saw a gun in her hands. Now way is she able to shoot that! She is too connected and close to him and as I seen, she's not really connected to the outside world. I looked at her concerned and if I figured this out, I have no doubt Kuro did. I have heard of him in the past from newspapers that came to Dadan's hut every once in a while. His execution was in the paper that had Ace's bounty in it.

He is known as a tactician and I have no doubt he had some plan other than the original under his sleeve. He said. "Oh, you are going to point a gun at me?"

I was right about before, but he pulled a low blow that made me cringe and boil in anger. It went like this. "I see you're all grown up now. You've grown in the last 3 years Miss Kaya. Don't you remember the things we went through? We spent so much time together, even before your sweet parents passed away. You were more than my master, you were my best friend. So much time, together we suffered and together we rejoiced."

Her face became more distressed the more he spoke and my eyes were narrowed in anger, is this his second plan I was thinking about? But, it seems he was not done.

He kept on talking about all the fun times they had and his fake nice voice turned into a mocking one. She was lowering the gun at the time and he took it from her. I pushed my sword out a little. He said. "I, who was once the respected Captain Kuro, had to bow and humble myself for some snot nosed little girl. It went against every fiber of my being."

He dropped the gun on the ground. Usopp grabbed the gun and was shooting at him, but he used this weird ability to get behind him as he said. "Thank you reminding me, Usopp I owe you for hitting me, let's get even."

Those blades that looked like weeding sheers were on his fingers and around Usopp's head. I took a couple of steps forward. I didn't need to though because Luffy stretched and punch him hard in the face saying. "If he hates getting hit so much, he's going to have a bad day."

I grinned and laughed and Usopp whipped around to stare at me in disbelief. Kuro didn't react because his bastard self was on the ground. The crew stared calling Luffy a freak and I glared at the pirates, moving my sword out of it's place more and they stopped, looking like they were going to piss themselves. No one calls my brother a freak, I dealt with that enough sometimes at home.

Then suddenly those kids that Usopp plays with came it and hit him with a bat and kitchen appliances. I smacked a hand to my forehead. First the sickly girl Kaya and now three little kids, what's next? No, I will not and I repeat not jinx myself. I looked at Zoro to see him looking at them a little bit blankly and Usopp looked about as lost as the rest of us.

They bashed him in the face a bunch of times and screamed in fear when he got up and took off his broken glasses. Sighing, I started to walk back to the middle of the area, next to where Zoro was. He gave me a glance, but didn't say anything. Kuro asked. "Well, that hurt, what is it? Some kind of Devil Fruit?"

Luffy nodded. "Yep, I'm a Rubber man."

The crew stared whining in fear and I sighed, man they are annoying! I glared when I heard Kuro order Jango to kill those little kids and capture Kaya. Usopp ordered the kids to run away and bring Kaya to safety. I said. "Luffy, you good?"

He nodded and I said. "See ya."

I ran off with them and they saw me and screamed in fear. I snapped. "Hey quiet, do you want him to find you?"

They shook their heads and I said. "Come on Kaya, we have to go, can you?"

She looked a little surprised, but nodded. It must have been the informal address or something. We were running for a while. I looking around for the Michael Jackson wannabe and I heard loud breathing. I looked to see Kaya slowing down.

I stopped and the kids called to her.

"Come on, Miss Kaya!"

"Are you okay!?"

"Why'd you stop?!"

I said. "She is sick, remember, she should be in bed."

She was on her knees and I could see the sweat on her face. I knelt down and felt myself soften a little when I put my hand on her shoulder. "Kaya, can you go on?"

She tried to get up and her legs were shaking. I sighed and stood up, bend down and swung the sickly girl in my arms. She opened her mouth and I motioned to the kids to keep running and I ran with them. I said. "Don't worry, you're light and I lifted weights heavier than you. It's like a training exercise."

She looked at me shocked. "Why would you train so much?"

I chuckled and picked up speed a little, smacking branches away from us with my shoulders and feet when they were low enough. "I'm a swordsman, I have to stay physically strong-no please be quiet, and I think I hear him."

She shut her mouth quickly and I crouched behind a rock after the kids did and looked to see Jango calling for us. I placed her down and put a finger over my lips. I walked out and he looked at me. "Hello, where are they?"

I raised an eyebrow. "Who? I just decided to go for a walk."

He glared at me and said. "I have no time for games!"

He swung some kind of blade on a string and I pulled out my sword and the thing clanged on my sword and went back to him. I ducked from the second one and the first wrapped around the blade of my sword. I growled and gave an experimental yank. It was wound around tight. I didn't notice until it was too late, the other one sliced deep in my right side, near my ribs.

I flinched and grit my teeth at the pain and used my other hand to grab the string and wrap it around my hand, wincing when I yanked the disk out and sliced little cuts in my hand. I yanked my hands forward after placing my feet firm to the ground and used my strength to bring his closer.

He lost his grip on my sword and the thing unwound. When he got close enough, I stabbed my sword into his left shoulder and he gave a yell of pain. I heard the little kids yelling and cursed loudly. He smirked, even if his face was filled with pain. "I knew they were here, I'll kill them."

I gave him a dark smirk and twisted my sword to the right. "What's was that, Hypno Man?"

He glared at me with pain filled eyes. I yanked my sword slowly, amused at the look on his face. I may be a little dark in the mind at times, I blame Ace. My sword was finally at my side. He covered the wound with his hand. I could see the blood seeping out through his fingers. Isn't that a morbid thought? I turned away thinking he was done.

I was disgusted by this because I felt a disk go into the back of my leg, behind the back of my knee on my left leg. I gave a holler of pain that made my eyes water in pain. I gasped and heard Kaya call my name. I coughed. "I-I'm fine.."

I yanked it out and turned back around, stumbling a little. I felt disgust coil in my stomach at myself and not because of my wounds. How could I turn my back without making sure? I shook my head lightly, I was starting to get a little lightheaded from the blood loss, both wounds had blood coming out in steady streams.

Before I could attack, Kaya jumped out and said. "I'll write the will, just please stop."

I frowned. "Kaya…"

She said. "Please relax; you're losing a lot of blood."

I leaned against the tree and thought. If I can attack him after the will is written, I could win. So I called my breathing and shook my head when I saw the three kids ready to move, they looked determined and I didn't want them getting hurt, I would know, kids shouldn't be involved with stuff like this.

She was doing the will and I breathed through my nose. I stood and before he could kill her, I slammed the hilt into his spine. He gave a scream of pain and I turned around with a glare and then I heard a tree crash. I looked up to see Zoro and Usopp. Usopp was getting ready to shot him with that slingshot of his. Jango was paying attention to me.

I smirked as an idea was in my head. The kid needs a shot at him. I squatted down (pushing down the pain) and shot up with an upward slash to the front. It wasn't deep, but I know it hurt. I spun his dazed form around and said. "Now, Usopp!"

He yelled.

"Okay"! He shot a ball or something of his and Jango let out a curse before he fell. I huffed and slid my sword back into the scabbard and almost stumbled. The kids came rushing out and crowded around Usopp. I blinked and said. "We should and check on Nami and Luffy now. Kaya, can you walk on your own?"

She gave me a nod and said with a smile. "Thank you so much, are you okay?"

I shrugged and fought a wince, smiling at her. "Yeah, only a couple of scratches for me."

We all walked back, me limping. Zoro looked, but didn't say anything. Soon enough with the three kids talking about the fight and Zoro looked at me with a frown. "You turned your back on the enemy?"

I scowled in disgust. "Yeah, I'm already hating myself for it and not because of the wounds."

He looked in my eyes and nodded. He knew what I was talking about. "Fine, lucky it didn't cause you your life."

We were so in our conversation that we ignored the others, who walked ahead. Zoro sighed harshly and I looked to see him making a face, like he was going to say something he didn't want to. "To tell you the truth, I underestimated two guy that played weaklings."

I smirked to myself and said. "So it seems we both made rookie mistakes as swordsman today."

Zoro seemed to scowl as he said. "I guess we did."

I chuckled to myself. "Then lets say something, since we just became pirates and made one rookie mistake that will be our last one as swordsman."

Zoro then chuckled himself. "As Swordsman, make it a lesson."

I shrugged. "I can agree with that."

We finally made it and the pirates were gone and so was Kuro. I looked to see Luffy resting with slashing on him and Nami shoving his hat into his face and him laughing. Grinning, I limped over to them. I sat on the other side of Luffy. I yawned and Nami yelled shocked. "Mace! You're bleeding."

I nodded. "Yeah, in my side and leg."

Nami glared. "You need to see a doctor."

I shook my head with a laugh. "Naw I need to sleep it off…and maybe blood."

Zoro and Usopp sat down and I think the kids walked Kaya back home.

Nami seemed to gain sharp teeth. "What is with you and Zoro thinking sleep fixes injuries."

I shrugged and Zoro said. "A swordsman thing."

I nodded, maybe. I said. "Though my sense of direction is better than his by a lot."

He glared at me. "Shut up, you idiot!"

We were moving down the hill and I groaned and hung my arm over Luffy's shoulder. He gave me a look; I gave him one back that said I was fine. He dropped it and let me hang there. They then dropped me off at Kaya's mansion, apparently they had doctors and she was training to be one and knew some things.

She asked me to sit on the infirmary cot and was pointing at my shirt, awkwardly. I shrugged and took it off. She was a little pink in the face. I had wrapping around my chest, bras restricted my movement.

The gash on my side was a little bad, not too bad. She and the doctor wrapped up my side and leg. I pulled my shirt on and she said. "But it's all bloody."

I chuckled, grimacing. "It's fine, I don't think I have a liking to dresses, skirts or blouses, this is fine."

She said. "Hold on."

She ran out and a couple minutes came out with a long sleeve red dress shirt. I smiled at her in thanks and pulled my old shirt off, pulling the new one and buttoning it up. She brightened and said. "I have something to give you all, where is everyone?"

I raised my eyebrows, but said. "At that restaurant in the middle of town."

She nodded and we walked toward the place with me trailing with no problem at all. I asked. "Are you sure you are okay?"

She looked confused and then smiled. "Yes, it seems I was just sick in the mind when my parents passed away and I reacted physically."

I nodded and put my hands in my pockets and walked with a distant look. "Yeah, losing someone does that to ya."

We were in front of the restaurant to see Luffy pull a fish bone out of his mouth and I chuckled. Seems like him. Man, the first time he did that I almost had a heart attack. I waved at them. Nami waved back, Zoro smirked and Luffy grinned widely. His reaction was different then theirs though.

He stretched an arm and wrapped in around my waist a couple of times. My eyes widened in horror. "Luffy don't-"

I was yanked toward him and groaned in pain I smacked into his side. He grinned wider with the help of his devil fruit and laughed. Sitting up, I placed my hand on the top of his hat and tugged the brim smug over his eyes. He whined and pushed it, pouting. I grinned and laughed. I stole a pick of meat off Luffy plate and he glared as I ate it. He pushed me slightly. "Don't touch my meat."

I grinned and looked away innocently. Ace says I could never pull the whole innocent thing and when I said the same thing to him, it earned me a punch to the head. Zoro, Nami and even Kaya looked amused at us. Nami finally noticed her and said. "Miss Kaya? Shouldn't you be in bed?"

Kaya smiled happily. "Yes, you see the mental illness is from the shock of losing my parents. And Usopp's friendship helped me get better. I can stay in bed forever you know. You all done so much for me and I came to give you a present from the bottom of my heart to show how grateful I am for all that you done here. I'd me honored for you to accept it." She finished with a closed eyed smile.

We followed her after I stole Zoro's grog before he could finish it and earned another glare from him. We then followed her to the shore line and Nami said. "Here."

She handed me my Logbook with the small bag full of paints and pens. I thanked her and we saw a man that looked half man/half goat. Kaya introduced him as Merry. I looked at him with wide eyes. "You know, you pretty cool! A goat man!"

A felt a sudden pain in my head to see Nami glaring at me. "That's rude, don't say that!"

I huffed and said. "What, he's awesome. I never met a goatman before."

Luffy and Zoro were laughing and smirking respectively. Merry looked oddly pleased and I said since they looked o' so amused. "Come on, he's not a goat, but not a man, it's like a miracle or something."

Kaya was even giggling a little. I scratched the back of my head, feeling a little embarrassed. Nami said. "If there was any doubt that they were related, not anymore."

I pouted when Zoro agreed with her. Luffy asked, getting really excited. "Are you giving this boat to us?"

Kaya nodded. "Yes."

I heard screaming and looked to see something rolling down a hill. It looked like a bag and then I saw Usopp. My eyes widened and I said. "He's gonna hit the boat!"

When he came close enough, Luffy and Zoro stopped him with a boot the face each. I grimaced, that's gotta hurt. I said. "Well, I'm going on the boat. Thanks for the shirt and helping, Kaya."

I waved at her and crouched and then used my leg muscles to jump on the boat. I flinched at the pain in my side. Shaking it off, Luffy arms wrapped around me and said. "We got it, a boat!"

I grinned widely back at him. "Yeah, all me need is a mark and a couple of more crewmates."

He agreed with me and Zoro jumped on. We were waiting for Usopp to get on when he called. "You guys take care; I hope we meet again sometime!"

I looked at him blankly and Usopp said. "What are you antisocial or something? I'm taking up the life of the high seas. It's that we'll eventually meet again that's all."

I snorted at the thought of my brother being antisocial. Zoro asked him. "What are you taking about? Get on already."

He looked confused and I said. "Why you playing stupid, get on with us, though I think you should lay off all that luggage."

I looked to see Nami climb on the boat and I gave her a hand up. She thanked me and I blinked, Nami is being nice lately. I shrugged. Luffy just told him. "We're friends' right, get on the boat."

"This is it; I'm a pirate captain now."

I frowned, actually annoyed and Luffy yelled at him at the same time I yelled. "No you're not!"

Usopp was on and everyone was comfortable and I was sitting next to Zoro. I frowned and said. "I don't like what he said, I hope it don't become a habit."

He looked at me. "You talking about Usopp and the captain thing."

I nodded. "You knw if it was almost any other pirate he would have been killed or worse."

Zoro sighed. "I hear ya."

I sighed and stood up. "He may act like a utter moron, but he's the captain and deserves respect."

He nodded looking at me more serious. I opened my Log Book when we got in the women's room to see 2 beds and a desk with a trunk a the foot of each one. I sat at the desk. I wrote about Buggy the Clown, escaping from his ship, Nami, the fight I had.

I then found Luffy and he told me about his fight and I grimaced when I hear about his hat, but saw it was fine. Then I wrote about Usopp, his island and the fight we had and got the account from his and Zoro what happened when I was gone. I filled about 4 pages and used blue ink for Sabo…

I shook my head at the emotion over loading me, put all the stuff in the trunk I dubbed mine and was about to relax when I heard Zoro voice call me. "Mace, get in here!"

I walked over to see everyone with a mug of grog filled to the brim and foaming. I was handed one by Luffy and he said. "Cheers to our new Nakama, Usopp!"

I grinned at them all and clinked glasses with them all and celebrated our new Nakama on our pirate ship.

I'm so sorry how long this took, I have school stuff and I stopped watching One Piece for a while and when I do that, I lose interest in the fanfiction I'm writing unless I finish the series and am waiting for new episodes. Hopefully, the next update is quicker; tell me what you think about my fight scene, I don't think I'm good with those.

Also, I might write a one-shot soon, I was so busy I forgot about Luffy birthday on May 5, I mean how could I, he's Monkey D. Luffy.
