Hey sorry if this chapter is kind late. I´m super busy with school and my sports team (I´m doing rowing 4 times a week), so yeah most of the chapter are a bit late. But I promise to never be abandoning this fic, you guys supported me and give such nice comments and not good ones too but I get it. Also, I finally figure out the problem with the missing words so no more chopped chapters. Enjoy it.
This chapter is like something short. Is Nezu asking a few questions for the straw hats in the individual interview so he can see if they are sane to be around UA grounds.
Zoro
The swordsman looked around in that small room with a chair and some lights. It feels like he was in a mini room in an abandon warehouse and Nezu was gonna cut the chase and spells the beam. He didn´t have his swords at the moment, he trusts them to Usopp to watch while he was inside the booth.
The mouse hero enters the room all chipper. Zoro only look at this guy with maximum attention, if he is the chief of this school, he must have some kind important power.
"Hello, mr. Ronoroa." Said Nezu with a smile
"Sup." Said Zoro crossing his arms and looking at the creature
"Tea ?" Said Nezu offering some.
"Don´t like weak things."
"If makes you happy I told my staff to buy some strong alcohols for your news residence. I don´t know if they are of your taste."
'As long is booze I will drink it." Said Zoro with a smile
"Sure. Now how long are you with the straw hats.'' Said Nezu picking a pen and some notebook
"Two years."
"Interesting. So why did you join with young Luffy." Said him writing the information down and then Zoro started his whole story.
"There were many reasons. Back the days I was a bounty hunter, called myself ´´the pirate hunter´´. I was doing fine, cutting people, getting rewards, drinking, the usual." Said Zoro remembering those days.
"I see." Said Nezu, but unknowing to Zoro he was writing down ´´dangerous, keep an eye´´
"So how does young Luffy comes in the picture."
"I was capture by the son of a corrupted marine captain. He wanted to attack a little girl by sending his pet wolf on her."
"Oh my. What did you do?" Said Nezu in horror, someone in affiliation with the military would do that to a little girl.
"I killed the thing.'' Said Zoro with no remorse.
"SO brutal." Said Nezu very low. He saw that Zoro was someone not hesitate to kill.
"Yeah I took the blame and they tied me to a pole. I was supposed to be there for an entire month, but on the ninth day luffy show up. When he invited me to join his crew, I told him to piss off. But then the captain kid showed again and wanted to kill me and take off my swords, Luffy came back beat him for me and set me free. I didn't wanna die there so I joined with him assuming it was just temporary. Boy I was wong."
"What do you mean?" Asked Nezu
"My dream is to become the world greatest swordsman. I already have a unique style of fighting called: Three swords style." Said Zoro
"Three swords?" Said Nezu, questioning this type of sword style.
"Yeah, I hold one in each hand and one in my mouth."
'That doesn´t sound safe." Said Nezu with a sweat.
"Said the guy who runs a place full of nuclear power kids."
"Yeah you got me there." Said Nezu with a laugh.
"To be the greatest swordsman in the world I need to defeat the current man worth of that tittle, Dracula Miwhak. I fought him and he defeat me easily and gave me this." Said Zoro opening his shirt and showing off the scar Mihawk gave him.
"Dear god." Said Nezu in pure horror, that scar look painful.
"Don´t worry. This show on how much I had to improve. So, after that battle Mihawk he told me to surpass him, ironic thing since he trained me later. But I still not his level. So, after that defeat I vow to never to lose again and become loyal to luffy. After all the pirate king need the world strongest swordsman by his side." Said Zoro with a smile of proud, to this day he doesn´t regret going alongside Luffy.
"This is so deep. There is more that I should know." Wrote down Nezu
"I made a lot of things for these people. I always imagined that I will never be part of some kind family, but…I will never let anything bad happen to any of them. Except for curly brown he can piss off as far I am concerned." Said Zoro remembering the thing he did. Not only for Luffy but for the crew. Beating Baroque Works, defeating God Eneru, declaring war on the world government, receiving that massive attack from Kuma, freeing a kingdom from a tyrannical warlord. This prove how far he had grown of his year, from bounty hunter to the pirate king right hand man.
''Alright." Said Nezu with a smile and proudly taking notes.
Nami.
"Are you comfortable miss Nami ?" Said Nezu
"Yes, despite being a little cold." Said her rubbing her arms to get some heat.
"I am sorry let me change that." Said Nezu changing the temperature.
"How it is feel?" Asked him.
''Much better thanks.'' Said Nami with a smile.
"Now. How long you have been a part of the straw-hat crew?''
"Two years."
"Ok. Why did you joined up with young Luffy ?"
"This can be seen as a bit dramatic or fake but I gonna be honest with you. At first I wanted to back stab Luffy but now I am 100% his crewmate."
"What do you mean backstab?" Asked Nezu with a raised eyebrow.
"You think in those two-literal sense." Said Nami with a cruel smile. She pretends to both trick luffy and possibly kill him. Nezu looked calm but he took notes of.
"Possibly murder and sociopath."
"Continue." Said him.
Nami then takes a deep breathes and recounted her story.
"Before I joined, I usually stole from people and ships for my own gain. See I like money and buying things." Said her being honest
"Sure."
"But this money that I was gathering up was for another thing. I really messed thing." Said her all angst and feeling kind sad, she hated in thinking about…him
"It is personal." Asked Nezu
"Yeah." Said her.
"DO you wish to talk?"
"Only if you promise not to share with your coworkers. If you do I will tell Luffy that you taste good." Said her all serious.
"R…ri..ght." Said Nezu trembling. Because if there is one thing, he never imagined was him dying in being eaten by a rubber boy.
Nami took a deep breath and start to remember those days.
"Me and my sister had an adopted mother named Bell-mére. We loved very much; she was a former Marine officer that decided to raise us both by herself. She used to make a living by planting tangerines." Said her with a smile
"See something more of rural location." Said Nezu taking notes
"At that point a love my childhood, her and my sister, old man Genzo. Sometimes I used to steel books and other stuff that I found pretty." Said Nami with a laugh and Nezu only observing
"Confirmative she is a kleptomaniac." Wrote down him
"Everything was good until he came." Said Nami now all cold.
"Who is he?" Asked Nezu
"A pirate named Arlong." Said Nami, she was now at the point of shaking anger and sadness.
"If you don´t wanna talk about it you can leave it or…" Said Nezu looking at her state but Nami stands of her hand.
"No, I need to do this. Arlong was a sword fishman that arrive at my village when I was just a kid, everything he did was terror and torture. He love to play with me."
"You mean." Asked Nezu now in fear, he could only imagine…
"Not this way that you are imagining, he love to break me emotionally and spicily. He forced me to be in a closed room to make maps for him and his crew. I spend days in that room, drawing, with no food or water. It was….the worst." Said Nami with some tears in her eyes.
"I comprehend." Said Nezu feeling sympathy for her.
"Emotional trauma still inside." Wrote down him.
"If this wasn´t the worst enough what Arlong did next was…." Said Nami now with more tears.
"What he did." Asked Nezu now afraid of what next to come.
"He killed Bell-mere in front of me and my sister." Said Nami all cold, Nezu almost drop his pen of that.
"And it wasn´t a suttle death he shot her in the back. Imagined being a little girl and seeing that." Said Nami looking at the rat all angry.
"Dear god. What is wrong with this people." Thought Nezu taking notes and only imagining what the rest of the crew would say.
"I hated Arlong for everything right in the world. I try to kill him. And I don´t care if you heroes say that everyone deserve to live. No! There is evil people in this world that deserve to die." Said Nami all serous.
"We will discuss this later Miss Nami." Said Nezu being honest.
"I try to kill him so many times that for him it was just a joke. However, one day he really decides to make me into a fool." Said her
"What he did?"
"He said if I gather 100 million berries, he would leave my village alone. I was desperate so really took his word. I did everything I could for years to gather that money. I worked, steal, borrow, did both legal and illegal actions. However, that one thing good that come out of that nightmare was…" Said her describing everything in pure pain but then it changes to a smile.
"What."
"I meet Luffy." Said her and Nezu stop writing.
"First, I try to kill him, but he stood around and never left. In the end when I confessed my intention, he helped me but when I return, I was played as the fool by Arlong. I got so angry that I…I…" Said Nami steel a little bit shake for her action.
"You did what?" Asked Nezu now a feeling a little shaken only waiting for the worst.
"I try to cut myself with a knife." Said her rubbing the area that she cut.
'What." Said Nezu now in horror, she tries to kill herself.
"Is true, I still have some of the scars from that incident. However Luffy stop me before I could get more deep." Said Nami now a little more relaxed.
"Suicide attempt. Monkey D. Luffy savior and good influence." Wrote him down in seconds.
"What happen next ?" Asked Nezzu
"The greatest thing that my village could ever imagine." Said her now with a smile full of joy and hope
"What."
"In one day. Luffy, Zoro, Usopp and Sanji defeat Arlong and all of his gang. Luffy even destroy my ´´prison´´. For all my life I thought I was gonna be near my family and do what I could to make a quick buck, but after what Luffy did I could be more grateful so I became what I am most proud as right now."
"Which is." Asked Nezu
"His navigator. He also encourages me to fulfil my dream.''
"And what is your dream?"
"Draw a map of our world." Said her all serious
"That a really noble cause." Said Nezu with a sympathy smile.
"Yeah, there the world government is very strict with information so a map of every single island that are in the ocean is not available. Every time that we set sail I go to my room and draw maps on a daily basis. Also, I received special training about weather with some old people while the crew was separated for a while, that made me stronger and much more realizable to the crew." Said Nami.
Nezu was listening to every word that she said, and kind understood this kind ambition. Try to explore the whole world and share this with everybody.
"You are a very noble and sweet woman miss Nami."
"Thanks Mr. Nezu."
"Good heart person." He wrote down in his notes
Nami then changed her tone from smiling and cheerful to very persuade and serious.
"now let´s talk about our expansive." Said her with a smite smile
"What?" Said Nezu confused and a whole level of conversation started.
Usopp
Nezu was still very confused on how to manage to make a financial plan for all the straw hats. The way that Nami talk about money, was like a very corrupted businesswoman who always got what she wanted. If Nami learned economic he feared what the stocks and people money would go to. But he figures out, as long she is distracted with clothes, she would go this length.
The next one was the long nose man called Usopp. He looked like an average and kind fun gun in Nezu eyes. But what he had heard from both his interviews with Zoro and Nami was that Usopp was a huge liar. And boy they here right.
"There was this one time that I battle theses giants' gorillas for what appear to be like the size of mountains and…" Said Usopp telling some of his famous ´´real stories´´ to Nezu. The rat was smiling but was not of interested.
"Interesting story Mr. Usopp but here is a questioning rom, not a writing team." Said Nezu getting now full off these whole lies.
"Hey you were liking." Said Usopp
"Yeah at some point." Said Nezu all sarcastic
"What?" Said Usopp all angry at the rodent hero.
"For what appear only the Captain Monkey D. Luffy and the doctor Tony Tony Chopper are your fans. But here I want pure honest answers. Got it." Said Nezu very serious, but not a angry expression, it was that creepy smile that Robin would have when torture someone. Usopp only shiver to that expression.
"Yes." Said Usopp feeling defeated.
'So how long are you in the crew?"
"Two years;"
"How did you meet?"
"Oh, it is an epic story. Ok so back then I was living in the East Blue in the village of Syrup. There I was respect as the true honest citizen." Said Usopp being very honest
'What you really where?"
"The town liar." Said Usopp with a smile while Nezu only looked unimpressed.
"Frequent liar, take good look at him." He wrote down.
"Ok is not a good position but people there liked me. i had my own fan club and even one my best friend was Miss Kaya." Said Usopp remembering the good people in the village who acted like him.
"Someone special?" Asked Nezu
"Well she is. She was always sick, so I used to tell stories to make her better. At some point she knew I was making some stuff up but she never told me because she liked to hear what I had in mind."
'Honest heart." Wrote down Nezu. Usopp might be a liar but he wasn´t saying something offensive or a way to get personal gain.
'Yeah the only thing that I hated in my village was the despicable guy Kuro." Said Usopp gritting his teeth in just thinking about that scumbag of a guy
"Who is he?'
"He was a pirate that served as Kaya butler for 3 years. The bastard actually faked to care for her and to respect her. When I discover that I want to beat him so bad." Said him all angry. Nezu could only imagine that if this Kuro hurt Kaya, Usopp would do anything to protect her.
"So you fought him ?" Asked Nezu.
"Yeah, I was gonna but then Luffy showed up with Zoro and Nami, so they helped me." Said Usopp with a tone that could be a lie or the true. Either way Nezu let pass.
"Really."
"Yeah. We kicked Kuro ass and he left. Sure, he escaped but he is never going to attack Kaya again." Said Usopp all happy
"Protective of his friends and closed ones." Wrote down Nezu
"We did so good there that we received our fist ship. The going Merry." Said Usopp all proud of the previous ship.
"Going Merry?"
"Yeah, another butler of Kaya, Merry who is a good guy also had plan for a ship. So, for saving her he gave us our first pirate ship. I still remember that day."
"What about your family? It was hard leaving them." Asked Nezu
"Well this is complicated. You see my dad left me and my mom when I was young so he could be the sniper of a very powerful Pirate crew." Said Usopp
"He left you and your mother." Said Nezu all perplexed.
"Yeah I know it seems sad, but we got that." Said Usopp, he never hated his father for leaving him and his mother, because it was for a good cause. Now Yasopp is best known as one of the greatest snipers of his world, and Usopp is way proud of his father.
"Alright." Said Nezu only accepting this fact
"After that it was just me and my mom until she died of an illness." Said Usopp a little humble with a sad smile.
"I'm sorry for that." Said Nezu
"It is ok. I was alone, I may annoy the people in the village, but they really liked me."
"Interesting. Also you are also listed as craftsman?'' Said Nezu looking at the initial information given in the interview.
"Yeah. Before Franky I deal with the major damages of the ship. But I never counted with one problem."
"What."
'luffy aboard." Said Usopp all annoyed
"I see." Said Nezu only writing down, he could only imagine what the teen would do in a daily basis.
"Luffy and Zoro would break the ship many times. I tried my best to fixed it, but it got to point that the Merry need to go. I tried everything that I could, but nothing worked. At first, I tried denied it, I even quit the crew because of that."
"How long did you quit and then comeback?" Asked Nezu al curious, it was the first person to effetely left crew and then comeback.
"A week." Said Usopp all embarrassed. He sounded very serious and he comeback in just so little time.
"Emotionally tied to his group." Wrote down Nezu
"We had a mission to do. One our friends was going to die so I ask for a close one to help. After that I apologize and Luffy receive me back as friend. Since then we almost never fought again."
"Respect for his captain." Wrote down Nezu
"Also, most of the straw-hat individual tell about a gap of two years that you all spent separated." Asked Nezu all curious. It looked like they all spend some time separated. Zoro explained that he has training and Nami said about mastering her wheatear skills. But none of them told how that happen.
"Yeah. A large bear man named Kuma send us off to different places. I was sent to what I thought to be paradise. Fill of foods, drinks and everything I could find." Said usopp with a some found memories of that island
"I see." Said Nezu with sweat on his head. Bear man, island full of food. Even in this world that sound absurd. It could be true or just another lie for him to try to be cool.
"I am not lying. I even meet my master Heracles." Said Usopp
"Heracles ?"
"Yeah he trained me on how to use the pop greens and other stuff. There I´m become more close to my personal dream, to became a great warrior of the sea. He is someone that I deep admire .Alongside my father, and master Dory and Brogy." Said Usopp listening all his greatest heroes.
"Who are thoses?"
"Giants."
"Lying or distancing the true?" Wrote down Nezu, he needs to learn more on how a person is lying.
"So, before I come back to my time with the crew. Let me tell some stories that really happen with me and master Heracles."
"Alright that seen good. I´m all ears." Said Nezu all interest
"So, one night. There was this giant squid with 80 tentacles…'' Said Usopp creating a ´´real´´ story.
"Total liar for attention. Keep an eye on him." Wrote down Nezu
Sanji
The chef looked at the small animal with interest. Sanji was a careful guy and knew what to say. He wasn´t stupid. Nezu only had a smile and put on the table and pack of cigarette and a lighter. That caught Sanji attention.
"Can I smoke?" Ask Sanji
"Yes, you can. This room has ventilation, so I will be fine."
Sanji light a cigarette and puff some smoke.
"I really needed this." Said him all relief.
"You know. I should been the one saying that smoking is wrong."
"Yeah but I am not a role model, so I don´t care for that."
"So Sanji right?"
"Yep"
"Last name." Asked Nezu. Sanji only looked away and explain
"I dropped when I ran away. I don´t want any connection with those people. Don´t ask for more, this is the best that you gonna get."
"Alright."
"Very closed about his family." Wrote down Nezu
"So, you been with Luffy for two years, right?"
"Yes."
'Why did you decided to join?"
"Because he said that he would help me reach my dream."
"Your dream. What is it ?"
"Find the All blue."
"What is this ´´All Blue.""
"In our world there is stories about a mystical sea where all kinds of fish and other species live. I mean all species from the world in one sea, it is every chef dream." Explained Sanji, ever since as apprentice chef he always dreams of that place.
"I can imagine that. I am not chef but one place with all the types of fish, anyone with culinary skills would die for that." Said Nezu with a smile. That ambition was a very interesting one.
"Yeah. Luffy said to me to believe in my dream and follow him. At first, I just thought he was an idiot sailing but then I saw him defeat one of the most wanted man of the East Blue and he had no filch or fear. That was the moment that I saw he was no ordinary person, he still an idiot but one with a good heart." Said Sanji.
"I get it." Said Nezu with a smile
"Great respect and loyalty to his captain." Wrote down Nezu
"So, after that I sailed with him Usopp, Nami-swan and Moss-head."
"You mean Mr. Zoro ?"
"Who cares for that idiot name." Said Sanji all angst in just thinking about that dumbass.
"Rivalry." Wrote down Nezu.
"While aboard I´m on charge of handling physical work and the culinary. Both are incredibly exhausting; my legs are real strong weapons." Said Sanji pointing at his legs
"Legs. Why don´t you use your hands?" Ask Nezu
"I´m a chef. My hands are my most important tools, I refuse to damage them, so that's why old man Zeff taught me everything on how to use them correctly."
"Who is Zeff?"
"The head chef of the restaurant I worked before I joined the crew. He taught me everything I knew."
"So, he like a father to you."
"More like an old geezer." Said Sanji with a laugh
"Right." Said Nezu.
"Father figure in the past." Wrote down Nezu.
"Well I guess should fill the rest. I pretty much do the heavy lifting to the crew. I fought many bastards that try to hurt them especially Nam-swan and Robin-chan. But then the dawn bear showed up." Said Sanji all angry.
''Yeah most of the crew told me that you spent 2 years separated. So, where did you train ?" Asked Nezu and then Sanji mood change to a very scared one.
"In heel." Said him all trembling
"What do you mean?" Asked Nezu.
Sanji start to sweat in fear and then memories started to pop op in his head. He was grateful for Invakov training and recipes but…that place was a gentleman worst nightmare.
"No, I can´t have those flashbacks. Where are they?" Said Sanji in desperation and he took off some pictures of his pocket. Two were of the female crew members and the other was of a girl that Nezu didn't known.
"Ah Nami-swan. Robin-chan. Vivi-chan. You all make this man very happy." Said him with heart eyes and perverting looking at the pictures.
Nezu just became speechless about that scene.
"Pervert. Keep an eye around girls, especially third years." Wrote him down.
Sanji while finally calm down he start to ask something important.
"Well I got say for a big place you must have a lot of mouths to feed. So, who does your cooking ?" Asked Sanji
"Is the pro-hero Lunch Rush. He was a special quirk that allow him to cook with the best ingredients." Said Nezu with a smile. Sanji upon hearing that the head chef of this school use his power to cook he felt super angry.
"Mister Sanji what is…" Said Nezu starting to feel all the rage.
"Tell your cook that a real chef uses his senses to cook and not crappy power. I saw that you people are obsessed with quirks, but I tell you I don´t have a power but I´m not someone that you wanna make fun. GOT IT ?" Said Sanji all serious. Nezu was starting to shake off, Sanji was listed to be one of the strongest members of the crew.
"Yes. I tell Lunch rush to not use his quirk while cooking." Said him shaking.
"Good because is time for the ´´cook hero´´ to learn real cosine.' Said Sanji puffin some smoke.
Chopper
Nezu was quite interested in talk with this one. He may not be a animal with a quirk like he thought it is the closest thing that he got as the same type as his.
Chopper looked at the room like a little kid all happy and curious. Nezu only smile that the thing naivety.
"So, Dr. Chopper." Asked Nezu
"That's me." Said Chopper all happy
"It is a pleasure to meet you."
"You too. I was actually really curious to talk to you."
"Me too. Now let´s get this going. So you been on the crew for 2 years right ?"
"Yes."
"Where have you been before."
"I was a medical appreciate of . In a place called Drum Island."
"Interesting. Now I wanna get right to the point."
"What do you mean?"
"How are you talking to me? How you are acting so…"
"Human." Asked Chopper
"Yes."
"Well I ate the Human-human fruit."
"The human human fruit?"
"Yes, it is my devil fruit." Said Chopper.
Nezu then got a curious look on his phase. Maybe know that could explain the superpowers that the crew posed. It was not quirks that they called, but also it appear to have no side effect. The two ability could be similar but were way different.
"So that's what you people called quirk back at your world?" Asked Nezu.
"No. The power might be similar, but the ways are different. Your quirks are somewhat genetic, because I saw parents and their kids with similar features. Devil fruits are different. To this day nobody knows where they came from, but they are special fruit that when you eat you gain a power. And different from your quirks, they don't have a side effect or a problem."
"I see.'" Said Nezu writing down everything.
"In the crew we have four members with devil fruit powers. Me, Luffy, Robin and Brook."
"Alright that's explain why we saw footage of some of your crew displaying power."
"You see there are three types of devil fruits. Paramecia, Zoan and Logia. Paramecia is the most common, is usually fruits that can affect their body, manipulate the environment and produce substance with no side effect."
"No side effects. That mean is superior to quirks." Thought nezu
"Zoan is more usual to transformation. Most of the user can turn into animal or other type of species, ranging from common animal to mystic ones."
"Mystic animals. Like dragons and others." Asked Nezu
"Yes." Said Chopper with a simple smiling not noticing Nezu shocked look.
"Dangerous fruti. Research more." Wrote down Nezu, honestly this was big news.
''And finally, there is the most powerful that is Logia. Is usually an element and when you eat you become the element, meaning that physical attack and other form of damage just pass thought you like it was nothing?" Said Chopper. While he explained Nezu wrote down the information in horror.
"These fruits are out of question. If a villain gets a hand one of those it could be a disaster." Thought him. The straw hats were not heroes but they didn´t harm innocent people, but if any villain acquire this power, the horror would be immense.
"Are you ok?" Asked Chopper seeing the rodent looking all nervous.
"Just try to process all this. The fact that in your worl power is gratinated thanks to this magical fruit is somewhat unbelievable. So what fruit did you eat ?" Asked him
"The human-human fruit."
"Human-human fruit."
"Yes. You see I was a reindeer at first but after eating this fruit I could walk and talk like a person."
"He develop this process thanks to fruit, unlike me.." Thought Nezu.
"Hey I sorry to be a bother but..." Asked Chopper but Nezu cut him.
"What?"
"How can you speak and walk like a normal person?" Asked Chopper, all the human with animal feature had some distinguish appearance but they still look normal. Nezu seen like a real animal that could act like a human.
Nezu looked a Chopper and took a deep breath.
"Is something personal but I think I can trust you" Said him
"Go on." Said Chopper.
"You see, since quirks are now pretty much genetical marvels, scientist for years try to work around many theories. One of them was to test if animals could be granted quirk and…" Explained Nezu rubbing his paw all nervous. The memories, the heel that he suffers.
"Did they treat you bad." Asked Chopper.
"Oh…" Said Nezu that started to tremble in fear. Even as a great hero and as the principle of UA he still had some of panic attacks just because of his past.
"Is ok, I´m here. It´s ok I know what is like to mistreat by other, included my own kind." Said Choopper all sad.
'What do you mean?" Asked Nezu now feeling a little better.
"When I was a regular reindeer, I was outcast because of my nose. I was always getting picked on and being punished for no reason, even as small one. When I hate the fruit it goes worst, they all saw me as monster even my family that…" Said Chopper with some tears in his eyes. Even with the straw hats, those memories hunt him even if Luffy and Sanji could cook and eat them all, he still hasn't forgot that horrible treatment.
"Is ok." Said Nezu giving a tissue.
"They are jerks. So, after that I ran away and every time that I encounter people I got shot or poked. I was called monster for so long that coastally broke me inside. Until I meet him.." Said Chopper now with a smile.
"Luffy ?" Asked Nezu
"No. My first hero Dr; Hiluluk."
"Who was he?"
"A doctor in the island that I lived. He saw me interesting so he treats me well and taught me medicine. Usually he did experiment that literally back fire on him. I loved him so much."
"What happen to him?" Asked Nezu and Chopper got sad again.
"He got sick and to not upset me he told to go away. I was so sad that I try to find a mushroom that he talked that could cure him but…" Said Chopper with a mood of feeling.
"But what?"
"The mushroom was poisoned. He left before I could check on him, but he died trying to protect the kingdom that I lived from the terrible ruler Wapol." Said Chopper now all angry.
"Was this Wapol bad?" Asked Nezu
"Just the worst. But don´t worry, Luffy send him away."
"Savior." Wrote down Nezu.
'After a while I thought I was going to be alone again, but I was then take in the care of Dr. Hiluk friend Dr. Kureha. She was different from him; she liked money and always prefer to live away from the main people. But taking aside that she is incredible doctor, every day she told me her age."
"How old is she ?"
"149" Said Chopper and Nezu then looked like he choked.
"Mr. Nezu ?" Asked Chopper.
"Can all humans of your world live that long." Asked Nezu
"Sometimes but with Dr. Kureha she was master of the uses of incredible herbs and medic that could granted long age and cure many diseases. She still never told me the real reason but whatever it is must the incredible." Said Chopper
"Long age, different from our" Wrote down Nezu
"After that I thought Luffy was going to leave but he was persistent in me coming along. I never saw the world and Dra Kuraha wouldn´t let me go. I even try to have Luffy go away and you know what he said ?" Asked Chopper
"No."
"SHUT UP. LET´S GO." Scream Chooper with a smile and recreating the moment he realized that he would follow luffy forever.
"Uhh." Said Nezu not knowing what to say of that scene.
"And that moment I knew that he was someone that I could follow. He is my friend and I his doctor, thanks to him I started my goal to cure every disease known to man."
"That's a very valuable goal." Said Nezu with a smile. So far Chopper was his favorite member of the crew, because he is honestly an honest kind person.
"I know and Luffy is the one I that pushed to this direction."
"Admiration to his friend." Wrote down Nezu.
Nico Robin
Nezu had to admit that of all the people he saw in the crew, Nico Robin was the one that he was the most interested about. She seen very mysterious, beautiful and smart. So, she decide to follow a 19 year old kid? He needs the have as much information that he could about her.
"Mister Nezu." Said Robin with a smile.
"Miss Robin.''
"That's a lovely interrogation you got here." Said Robin talking about the room.
"Well thanks. Here at U.A we try to keep the best possible." Said Nezu
"I see."
"So, you been with Luffy for 2 years."
"Exactly."
"What were you doing before?"
"That's a trick question. The true is…I was doing a little bit of everything." Said Robin being honest.
"What." Asked Nezu a little beat confused.
"You heard me. I noticed that you could be the smartest guy in that room, even though you are not a person." Said Robin pointing the obvious taking Nezu by surprise.
"Are you…" Said him all curious. If anything, happen he would sound the alarm and a bunch of heroes would appear in seconds, All Might include.
"I am not putting any of your students in danger. Luffy will be mad at me if I did that, he can be very childlike sometimes." Said Robin with a laugh
'Sometimes." Thought Nezu
"Humor nature.' Wrote him down the first thing that he got from Robin.
"But is true what I say before, I did a bit of ´´everything´´. Espionage, mercenary, assassination, crimes and the list goes on." Explaining Robin giving some ideas of her past.
"Dangerous past keeps an eye of her." Wrote down Nezu
"So…why did you decide to do this lifestyle?" Asked Nezu a little afraid.
"I didn´t decided I didn't have a choice. In our world the government that rule supreme is more corrupt than yours." Said Robin dropping her view of the hero government.
"Our government is not corrupt miss Robin. We provide thousands of heroes to help out millions of people." Said Nezu defending his government.
"And yet you couldn´t send one to help Shigaraki. You people create a lazy society that realis too much on them." Said Robin remembering the backstory of Tomura. If a normal people leave him a hand, he could be help Tomura in not to join forces with All for One. If Luffy was there he would help Tomura and screw this society rules.
Nezu only seats there looking like to create a good excuse. Robin seeing that she made her point decide to move on.
"You have your view, I had mine. So, continuing, when I was a kid, I lived in a place called Ohara and it was best known for studying the history of the world. And when it looked like we could finally discover many secrets of the true history, the government labeled us as criminal and wiped out out."
"What.." Said Nezu stopping to absorb all that information.
'You heard me. Not arrest us for a real crime. They know that the true history is gonna be their downfall so if someone is near of that goal, they will wipe out your existence. It doesn't matter to them. They have the marines also known as the ´´heroes´´ of the sea."
"Childhood tragedy." Wrote down Nezu. Now he was also a little afraid to know more about this ´´World Government´´.
"I manage to escape by pure luck. My home got wiped out of the map, and for many years since I was 8, they tried to hunt me. I did this thing not because I wanted, but because I need it. Everyone that open arms to me try to capture or sell me off. When I got older, I betrayed many organizations. It wasn´t until I meet someone that could actually help me as long, I protect him." Explaining Robin giving some parts of her horrible life.
"Mister Luffy ?"
"No that was before that. It was someone called Crocodile."
"Crocodile?"
"He would be called in your terms as ´´a master villain´´. He was a leader of an organization called Baroque works, and they plan to take over a whole country. Making a bloodshed everywhere. And did you know who stopped that?"
"Mist…" Nezu didn´t want to believe but Robin was likely telling the absolute true.
"Luffy."
"Wow." Said Nezu impressed. Luffy stopped a masses bloodshed of a country and defeat a master villain. He might say that he doesn't want to be a hero but those were real heroic things.
"Yeah, at that point I was in a situation where I was sure to die but then Luffy appeared. I told him to let me go, but he said that he wouldn´t do that. Now I didn´t have Barroque to protect me so I joined the crew."
"As…"
"But before you ask I didn´t join fully. I was there for protection, he seen like a man who cared for his crew. I was sure that I was going leave anytime time soon, but then…. When the governed found me and I kidnap me, Luffy found out and chased after me. Originally, I grow soft and gave myself as a sacrifice. Luffy still wouldn't let me go, even that I still believed that he was going to do what so many treated me. But then he showed his true color."
"What did he do ?' Asked Nezu
Robin than remember that day. The day that Luffy proof that he would protect her no matter what. By burning the world government flag and declaring war against them.
"You are going to die! You all except to fight the whole governed and win?''
"YEAH BRING IT ON!"
"Robin. Tell me, you wanna live!"
"I WANNA LIVE."
"Misse Robin. Are you ok ?" Said Nezu seeing Robin with a bit of tears in her eyes.
'Yes. All that I have to say is…. Luffy is the only person I am willing to die for it." Said her with a huge smile in her face. While Nezu only seen in pure shock.
Franky
Nezu was speechless after Robin statement. The way that their government treat people is horrible. No wonder there was so much chaos with these people.
Now with Franky, he seen a bit skeptical. He looked like a weird futuristically robot, but still looked human and with no pants. He had the appearance of a rather muscular guy, in the same way of All Might. Nezu would like to know how far their technology was
"So, mister…" Said Nezu trying to be a polite but how you do that with a guy like Franky?
"Cutty Flam, but most people call me Franky."
"Alright Franky. So, you are the crew shipwright. I am correct?"
"Yeah bro."
"You are with them for 2 years."
"Yes."
"So, tell me a little more about you."
"This is an epic sorry that need an intro song." Said Franky looking like he was inspired emotionally. So much so that he picks his guitar.
'Where did he got that guitar?" Scream Nezu all perplexed.
'Oh, I was a boy…" Said Franky rocking some whacky tunes.
'Ah leave the singing for another time mister Franky. Can you please tell a little about your past?" Said Nezu all perplexed and wanting to back to the interviews.
"Well my parents were pirates from the south Blue. They abandon me when I was a kid."
"He talks like it nothing. What wrong with them?" Thought Nezu all perplexed and confused. Franky talked about being abandoned by his parents and he talk like it was nothing.
"I never cared for them, because I ended up in water seven. The ship building city."
'Interesting." Said Nezu writing down.
"There I was adopted alongside my sisters by the great puffing Tom?"
"Who was he?'
"The greatest ship builder in the universe that ever lived. He was a person that could make everything."
"Fascination for construction." Wrote down Nezu
'Any examples?" Asked Nezu. If this Tom was such a great ship builder so they might give him a clue on how their technology is.
"Tom made many things that I saw with my own eyes. However, he was famous for two things."
"What?"
"Building the first pirate king ship."
"What "Said Nezu almost dropping his pen.
"Connection with the original pirate king. Need more information." Writing down Nezu.
"Yeah, pretty super huh. When the government discovered that. They wanted to arrest him, but he revealed his magnum posed. Something so big and groundbreaking that they let him build and them be arrested."
"What was?"
"The sea trains."
"Sea train." Asked Nezu a little bit interested.
"An incredible invention that Tom had. A train that was able to traverse's the seal, faster than any usual ship."
"Technology primitive but still impressive." Wrote down Nezu
"That sound outstanding." Said Nezu being honest
"Yeah and it took us 11 years."
"How many people work in the construction?"
"Me, Tom, Yokuzuna and Iceburgg."
"Just four people !" Said Nezu pretty schocked.
"Yeah. Man, those times bring back memories." Said Franky wiping some tears in his eyes
"So, what happen next..."
"Well Tom deliver the train, so he was ready to go. I refused to let them take away him so I did the most obvious thing."
"Which was."
"I stand in front of the railroad of the sea train." Said Franky super serious.
"What. That´s pretty much suicide." Said Nezu sounded horrified.
"You are telling me this. I know, it fails, Tom was taken away and I never saw him again. The incident almost killed me; however, I survived and build myself and new body. After that I was so angry with Iceburg for doing nothing that we split apart. So, for years I was the leader of little mafia gang called the Franky Family." Said Franky remembering his life after Tom was taken. Leaving Iceburg and creating his ´´family´´
"You, leader of a mafia." Said Nezu all worried.
"Yeah, it´s doesn´t look with my style but it was. For years, me, my sister and all my bros attack some random pirates and idiots and we collect their money. But even with that new life I liked to check out the ships that come to Water Seven. The idiot of Iceburg become the mayor the town, and I believe he still is."
"So, when does young Luffy come along?"
"Well their ship the going merry was in pretty bad shape. Almost all the shipwright of the place had said that the ship was done for it. We try to attack the crew at first, but we got out buts kicked, but soon we would ally all together because they had appeared." Said Franky know getting angry
"Who are you talking about?"
"CP9."
"What."
"They are the government butchers. They kill, wipe out people and pretty much do everything as the government tell them." Said Franky remembering those bastards who try to kill him.
"More of the corrupt government." Wrote down Nezu.
"So why did they appear?"
"Tom had a secret that I not going to tell." Said Franky. As much they appreciate the heroes, he wouldn´t let them know about the accident weapons, he never trusted those who were always on the government side. Plus, the heroes were almost like the navy. Nezu looked really upset but decided to not go for it.
"The government wanted that secret so they could control the people everywhere with fire powers. So, they send some assassin to blend in with the citizens for five years. Three of them worked with Iceburg, one worked in a local bar. I had to admit that they were pretty good, real profession, but as soon as they were asked to leave, they were ready to kill the people that they live among them."
"My god." Said Nezu almost in pure horror expression.
"They capture Robin and me as well. What happen to the secret, I can´t tell, but is best to say is now far away from those bastard hands." Said Franky not wanting to reveal that Pluton doesn´t exist anymore
"Personal judgment." Wrote down Nezu
"What else happen?" Asked Nezu
"Luffy and the crew bust out with my bros to rescue me and Robin. And it was a success, we live, we beat that crap of Cp9, and I joined the crew."
"Really. Why you decide to leave your city and follow young Luffy."
"My mentor builds the pirate king ship. So, I hope to follow his legacy, because I build their next ship the Thousand Sunny and I guarantee to you that this ship will make history as the flagship of the next pirate king." Said Franky with a big bright smile.
"Great faith in his leader." Wrote down Nezu. So far Nezu had like Franky he seen like a nice man with a few screws out of his brain.
"You are sure a great man, mister Franky." Said Nezu looking down his notes.
"Thanks bro. Now I got to tell you, this room need a little shake off after all that open-heart conversation. I got it." Said Franky putting one lights in the room and changing his air style to a afro.
"Tada." Said him. Nezu see that his interrogation room was now looking like a cheap student party.
"Did he keep those things inside himself?" Thought Nezu super confused. The rodent was not ready for what was going to happen next.
"Oh yeah. DO the Franky. Do the Franky." Said Franky dancing.
"I need to find a psychologist after this." Thought Nezu. He was still speechless looking at that scene.
Brook
After Franky out nowhere party was over and Nezu got all the information that was most important. It was time for the last member of the crew, the weird Skeleton with an afro. The skeleton was drinking tea, and Nezu was surprised that he didn´t see the tea going down. Is was like he still had living organs, even though he didn´t have organs.
"I say this really good stuff, Hic." Said Brook burping.
"Oh sorry." Said Brook.
"Bad manners." Wroe down Nezu.
"So mr…" Asked Nezu trying to start a conversation.
"Humming Brook at your service." Said Brook take away his hat.
"Mister Brook. I have so many questions for you, but the first is…"
"Why I am a skeleton."
"Well yeah." Said Nezu being honest.
"A this is thanks to my Devil fruit. The revive-revive fruit."
"Revive fruit."
'Yeah. I eat when I was still young, however the effect only takes after you die, so."
'But this is incredible. A fruit that allows a person to have a second chance in life is absolute outstanding." Said Nezu stunt by hearing that information. A fruit that guarantee you to have a second chance in life, that is out of the boundaries of quirks.
"I know. I was a bit too lucky and unlucky." Said Brook.
"What do you mean?"
"Nezu san, how old do you think I am?"
"100?" Said Nezu shooting off a number,
"A hundred year old! My dear good sir, keep in mind that I am 37 at the moment." Said Brook feeling insulted.
"What." Said Nezu feeling nervous now.
"I am just kidding I am 90 at the moment. I was 88 when I join." Said Brook going back to his silly mode and laughing. Nezu however was not laughing.
"Doesn´t know the right moment to be serious." Wrote down Nezu
"So how was your life before meeting young Luffy?"
"Oh it´s was great. I was the musician and the second man of a group called the Rumbar pirates."
"Rumbar Pirates."
'Yes lead by the great Yorki. He was a man that I deeply admire."
"Really so tell me what happen."
'You see. When I was seeing with them, the great pirate era hadn´t started yet. We were just sailing to island and doing most pirates stuff. This brings tears into my eyes; even though I don't have eyes anymore. Yohoho"
"Fixation on skull jokes." Wrote down Nezu.
'" Captain Yorki and the crew love to go in adventures and discovering new places. But then one day we meet our most weird crewmember."
"Who…"
"Laboon the whale." Said Brook remembering that little whale.
"You recruit a whale into the crew." Said Nezu a bit confused. That now a days seen fine with all the weird things hero would do, but still.
"Well we didn't recruit him. But he joined with us because he kept following us. He was so cute and adorable, plus having a whale was a huge advantage for man on the sea."
"You got a point. So, what happen to Laboon." Said Nezu.
"One day we pass to the red line and we wanted to pass there, but the problem was Laboon couldn´t go with us. He was too big to pass there, so we let him in the care of our good friend Crocus. He and Labbon where at the Twin capes." Said Brook remembering the day that they left Laboon with the old flower head doctor.
"Then what happen?"
"We all die." Said Brook like it was nothing.
"What." Said Nezu looking in horror to hear all that.
'One-night mysterious enemy appear and killed all the crew members including myself. That's when my powers activated, my soul pop out in the middle of the ocean, it should have appeared next to my body but It didn´t do it. So, I spent a long time looking for my body, and when I found it was nothing but bones."
"My god." Said Nezu with his jaw drop
"Are you ok, Nezu-san?'' Asked Brook seeing the rodent feeling a little bit off.
"Yes, but mister Brook what you describe is simply horrifying. How are in such a good mod?" Asked Nezu
"You have Luffy to thank for that. He was the one that brought back my way to live. After I spent decades alone in my old ship."
'What do you mean?"
"My ship was in a forbidden area of the sea that nobody dares go to. So, I was alone for decades, there way days that I wake up and saw my friends all happy and alive but then I realized was a dream. Being alone is a horrible feeling." Said
"Set some psychologist." Wrote down Nezu
'What happen next?" Asked him.
"Luffy-san appear and, in the spot, offer me a position in his crew. I immediate accept the offer since I was all alone for years. I had a fine meal, and everybody loved me. However, I had a problem." Said Brook
'What was?''
"I didn´t have my shadow." Said Brook and Nezu look confused once again.
"I beg your pardon. You said you didn´t have your shadow."
"Yes, you see a very powerful pirate called Gecko Moria who had the power of the shadow shadow fruit stole my shadow, and if you don´t know if you lose your shadow is a very deadly thing."
'What happen?"
'Well not only you feel empty. Like you lost your soul, not in my case since my soul is pretty livid Yohoho. But also, you don´t have your reflection and when sunlight touches you is pretty much death."
'That´s sound horrifying." Said Nezu. Every time a devil fruit is mention is sounded worst and worst. All Might and hero public comity president are going to have a horrible set of new.
'Fruits defiantly danger. Analyze and discuss later." Wrote him down.
"But don´t worry, Luff-san and the crew defeat the horrible Moria and I got my shadow back and joined the straw hat as his musician, and also swordsman."
"Yeah we analyze that you use a sword to fight." Said Nezu remembering the footage of their fight.
'Yes. I didn´t get the name humming brook for nothing." Said Brook
"You also didn´t explain me what your main goal is. All the other members gave me their ambition and dreams, what is your mister Brook." Asked Nezu
"My dream is a very simple one. I wanna reunited with a friend."
'Oh really. What is his name?"
"Laboon."
"The whale."
"Luffy-san say that his still at the red line waiting for my old crew. I cry every time when I think about it, this poor whale that spend decades waiting for his friends to return. Thankfully Crocus-san kept him company and protect him so I also pledge my life to him. But that is the true, all I want to reunite with my whale friend."
"Very honorable guy." Wrote down Nezu.
"I gotta say Nezu-san. For a hero school, this place needs a little more humming songs, may I play a verse of a famous song of my world as a demonstration."
'Oh, sure what is the name?"
"Bink Saque."
Nezu sits there and listen to Brook playing the famous pirate song
Hours later
Nezu got a ton of information. Most that sound too absurd to be true. The straw hat had probably the most sad or craziest lives that he had ever heard. Each one of them had a story to tell and their dreams to peruse. They are not heroes, but they are not bad guys, although not fully innocents. Nezu kept also interested that every time they kept talking, they all refer as luffy as the one that always bring them together. Without him the crew would not be the same, he can understand that Luffy is the captain, but he feels that there is something more with this fellow. SO far that kid prove to be an immense lunatic. Fighting every time, breaking rules, challenging All Might without fear. That's was not good but it could part of his nature, like Luffy is always the one that is not gonna follow the strict rules that hero system oppose and if Nezu wants that crew to be in check he need to make sure the captain is happy. SO now it was the time, the talk with young Luffy
"So, captain Luffy." Said Nezu with a smile to the young rubber kid.
"That's me." Said Luffy with a smile and a lugh
And here where it ends. Don´t be mad, I wanna the talk with Luffy to be for your interpretation either Nezu gets super impressed and scared of Luffy, or he gets super annoyed. Either way it could work. In the interview sure Luffy is gonna bring Ace, Shanks, Jinbei and all of his friends but I wanna see what else he would say. Yeah, this chapter is a bit long, I didn´t expect to go this way but I guess I over did it. Next chapter is the sport festival and I tell you I already have a bunch of ideas for this one. See you guys later.
