All of the Straw Hats looked in horror as there Friend Nico Robin was Frozen Solid.

"YOU BASTARD!" Luffy yelled

"Don't yell, she'll still be alive if you thaw her out properly, but her body is Fragile so be careful, she'll die if she breaks...for Example. "Aokiji said Raising his fist up

NO!" Everyone yelled

"If you break I her like this!" Aokiji yelled ready to punch her.

"ROBIIIN!" Cray yelled

"STOP IT" Luffy yelled running towards her

Luffy Quickly Grabbed Robin and fell towards the ground only seconds away from Aokiji fist to make contact. Aokiji looked down and noticed Luffy holding Robin tight Aokiji then raised his foot to stomp and robin was quickly snatched away by Ussop running a good distance away from him.

"Yeah Wait to go Ussop!" Chopper and Nami cheered

"What in the hell are you doing?" Aokiji said annoyed

"Ussop, Chopper! Keep running towards the ship! Get her Thawed out of that ice!" Luffy yelled

GOT IT!" Ussop and Chopper yelled running away with Robin in hand.

Aokiji then started to walk after them.

"Don;t bother, the world would be a much better place without that woman in it." Aokiji said

Nami took out her clima-tact to strike Aokiji only for him to Grab a hold of it.

"Not to split hairs, but Pirate crews pretty much consist of people like that." Nami said

"You seem to understand that well, Miss, now if you don't mind, kindly step aside." Aokiji said pushing Nami out of the way

"Nami!" Sanji yelled

Sanji, Cray and Zoro then started to run towards him

"Your gonna pay for hurting my friend you Overgrown Ice Pop!" Cray yelled

"your not gonna mess with this crew and get away with it!" Zoro yelled

WAIT NOBODY ATTACK HIM!" Luffy yelled

The three of them then stopped in there place Looking At Luffy in confusion

"Stay back and don;t interfere I'm gonna fight this guy one on one...what do you say the two of us can settle this on our own. "Luffy said to Aokiji in a fighting stance

Aokiji then turned towards Luffy

"Fine by me, but since I don't have a ship to bring you back, then I'll just have to kill ya." Aokiji said


(the Going Merry)

Ussop and Chopper had Robin in the shower, soaking her in a bath tub full of warm water.

"Seh can;t breathe while in that state can she?" ussop said

"I think that she is in a state of suspended animation." chopper said

"doesn't that mean she'll die if we don't do something?" Ussop said

"If we warm her up to quickly she'll shatter we have to restore her body temperature from the inside out." Chopper said

"Are you sure its going to work?" Ussop said

"I don't know but its the only thing I."

"Wait you don't know this is Robins life were talking about here!" Ussop yelled

"I KNOW! I but I never treated someone that was completely encased in ice before, I know that Aokiji said shes still alive, But I just don't see that being possible!" Chopper said in tears

"Don;t give me that crap if you cant save her then nobody can you understand!? your the doctor of the Straw Hat Pirates got it!?" Ussop yelled

"I KNOW OKAY JUST STOP YELLING AT ME!" Chopper yelled

Chopper and Ussop then continued on pouring buckets of water on Robin.

"CHOPPER!"

the both of them heard someone call Choppers name outside of the ship, chopper quickly went outside to see what going on and they Saw Nami, Cray, Sanji and Zoro.

'Hey Guys Whats going on!? Wheres Luffy!?" Chopper yelled

":theres no time to Explain! We need to head back right away, help us do something with our Injuries!" Zoro yelled

"Oh right we need to douse whatever part of your body is frozen in water but were using the shower for Robin!" chopper yelled

"How is Robin? is she okay?" Nami said

"Its still to early to tell." Chopper said

Zoro and Sanji then Jumped into the Water, While Cray Carefully shimmyed down towards the edge of the island and carefully dunked his frozen foot and calf into the water.

"Will this work?" Cray said

"Yes once the Ice begins to melt start rubbing the infected areas and get on board the ship right away, Nami come aboard and help me and Ussop treat Robin." Chopper said

Right." Nami said coming aboard the ship.

After the ice melted Cray, Zoro, and Sanji climbed aboard the ship as well and started rubbing the frozen areas, while Ussop came out.

"What the? why are you guys here? wheres Luffy?" Ussop said

"fighting Aokiji One on one." Sanji said

"What!? you mean to tel me you guys just left him there face him by himself!?" Ussop yelled

"It was captains orders!" Sanji yelled

"Are you crazy! Can;t you tell when an order is unreasonable I cant believe you would be so cold-hearted just to leave hi.."

"IT WAS A DUEL! CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?! ITS WHAT HE WANTED!" Sanji yelled shoving Ussop

"STOP FIGHTING! This isn't helping anybody!" Cray yelled

"But?" Ussop said

"STOP IT ALL OF YOU! NOWS NOT THE TIME!..Right now we need to stay focused okay? whether this decision was one of his passing whims it doesn't matter, whatever happens we have to be ready to deal with it understand?" Zoro said


"ErrrrAhhhhhh!" Luffy yelled running towards Aokiji

Aokiji had his hand ready to strike him, but Luffy quickly dodged under it and then With all his strength Kicked him high into the Sky. Luffy then inflated himself and blasted himself high into the air towards him.

"GUM GUM STORM!" Luffy yelled quickly as he delivered an array of rapid punches towards Aokiji who then shattered again into tiny Pieces, but unfortunately Aokiji reformed back and now had a hold of Luffy.

"Now its Ice Time." Aokiji said

Luffy then felt himself getting froze over just Like Robin.

"dam...it." Luffy said slowly as he was completely encased in ice.


Aokiji was sitting down facing Luffy who was now Frozen solid.

"Aw man, you tricked me, the moment i agreed to fight you one on one, I settled on defeating you and you alone, but that was your plan wasn't it? If I were attack your crew now I would be the bad guy here, isn't that right captain? or maybe...you really thought you could beat me?" Aokiji said getting up and dusting himself off.

"Let me give you some advice, keep a close eye on Nico Robin, eventually she'll grow to be more then you can handle, the nature of the violent fate she was born into will be a greater danger then you can imagine. more of a burden you could ever hope to bear, that's what it means to have that woman on your crew. You have been warned Mr Monkey D. Luffy...It would be easy to break and kill you right here and now but I have a debt to honor." Aokiji said picking up his Jacket.

"Consider us even for you taking care of Crocodile, as well as...um..Ah never mind, something to do with Smoker...See Ya." Aokiji said walking away

As Aokiji went away, Zoro and Sanji were running towards the fighting area

"THERE HE IS!" Sanji yelled

STILL IN ONE PIECE!" Zoro said

"Thats good." Sanji said

" I'LL CARRY HIM! LETS GET HIM TO THE SHIP! STOP SAYING WHAT I'M SAYING!" Zoro and Sanji said to each other

...

"After Zoro and Sanji Got Luffy onto the Ship, they started to thaw him out as well, after they successfully did Chopper advised everyone to wait outside while he took care of them. everyone stayed outside the door hoping to hear some good news. they then started to hear some tiny footsteps quickly running towards the door. it Quickly opened with Chopper breathing heavily.

"Both..of there hearts...ARE BEATING!" Chopper yelled in tears of happiness

"YEAH!" everyone yelled

"Robin!" Sanji yelled

"Luffy!" Ussop said

"No the two of you can;t go and check on them they need there rest!" Chopper yelled holding them back with his hybrid form

"Hey Doctor Chopper How about I make them some food." Sanji said smiling

Ah, calling me doctor won;t make me feel happy or anything you stupid jerk, but i suppose some nice warm drinks will be good when they wake up, I'll carry them over to the lounge later. "Chopper yelled

"Right away!" Sanji yelled running off.

" Nami should we set sail?" Zoro said

"No not yet, not when the Captain is recovering." Nami said gathering some Clothes.

"I'm just glad that both of them are all right, what was Luffy thinking taking on that guy by himself?" Cray said still kind of in pain from the that ice attack.

" Are you still going to be able to get around?" Zoro said noticing Crays limp

"I'll be fine I'll just need to stay off of it for a few days." Cray said sitting down on a nearby chair.

Ussop then slumped to the ground

"Whats wrong Ussop? you look beat. "Zoro said

"Are there going to be more men like him coming after us everywhere we go? this is crazy I don't how much more I can take." Ussop said weakly

" gets some sleep idiot, your just exhausted okay?" Zoro said


In Order for Luffy and Robin to make a recovery the Going Merry remained anchor on the deserted island for four days, after that we set sail, today makrs the third morning since we resumed Our voyage the weather is clear and sunny, mostly spring with an occasional amount of summer."

Nami was sitting on a lawn chair enjoying the weather, Zoro was sleeping

"Ah it feels so nice out here." Nami said

"NAMI-Swan!" Sanji yelled running towards her with a dish in his hand

"Yes Sanji." Nami said

" I made a special dish just for you, Potato Paille, try it tell me what you think." Sanji said handing her the plate

"nami took a fork and took a bite.

"Mmmm delicious." Nami said

"THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY!" Sanji yelled

"KEEP IT DOWN YOU JERK SOME OF US IS STILL TRYING TO SLEEP!" Zoro said

"I'm sorry about that cactus head my sincere apologies." Sanji with a bit of sarcasm

"What was that you Ciggerate smoking dart board." Zoro said

"Huh? what did you call me?" Sanji said confused

"Dart Board, Dart Board eyebrows. "Zoro said

"WHAT!?" Sanji yelled realizing what Zoro meant

LUFFY LUFFY LUFFY!" Ussop and Chopper yelled

"Okay guys Check this out!" Luffy said Covering himself in flower he then went into his frozen pose

"This is me When I'm frozen." Luffy said slowly limping around and then falling.

"Hahahahahahaha!" Chopper and Ussop laughed

"Ugh I can't believe this is how he behaves after almost freezing to death." Nami said

"So what do you think?" Luffy said

"You nailed it!" Ussop yelled

"Make sure you clean all that flower up Luffy." Nami said

Back inside the Going Merry, Cray was simply going back and forth Spinning in circles and moving forward in his Office Chair thinking about what he should draw next. While Robin was sitting down on a couch with a blanket. He noticed that Robins expression is still Stoic like its lost in thought.

"Hey Robin are you feeling okay?" Cray said

"I'm doing fine Cray." Robin said casually

" Are you sure? Maybe an extra blanket I can get you?" Cray said spinning around in his chair

"Thats okay, don't worry about me." Robin said

" Alright, Just remember if you need anything just ask. Were here for you Robin." Cray said

Robin just paused for a moment and didn't say anything.

"Well I'm gonna head outside check what everyone else is up to, you coming?" Cray said

"I'll be out in a minute." Robin said

"Alright. see you out there." Cray said getting up from his chair and walking outside.

As Cray went outside he noticed Chopper, Luffy, and Ussop eating something

"Hello hows everyone doing?" Cray said

" Everything's going great, you should've seen it, Luffy was doing a perfect imitation of himself frozen, it was hilarious!" Ussop said

"Oh, Well I'm glad that you found him imitating an event that nearly got him and Robin killed funny." Cray said scratching his head.

"Whoa Gee Cray way to kill the mood." Ussop said

"Hey Cray you got try some of this Potato Pie stuff that Sanji made its really good!" Luffy said stuffing his face.

"Its pronounced "Paille" not Pie." Sanji said

The Lounge Dorr then opened and Robin then came out as well

"Robin!" Everyone yelled

"Is everything okay? do you still have a chill?" Chopper said

"your treatment helped tremendously, Thanks your a wonderful Doctor." robin said

"You should take it easy Robin, Luffy is fully recovered to where he's running around, and screaming like an imbecile. but you can jus relax and take your time." Nami saiud

"heh thanks." Luffy said

"that wasn't a compliment." Nami said

"hey Robin would you like me to fix you something to warm you up?" Sanji said

"Yes Some Coffee Please?" Robin said

"Of course, my Pleasure!" Sanji yelled running to the kitchen

Hey Nami how close do you think were are to Water 7? Is that Eternal Pose that Alisa gave us working all right?" Cray said

"Its working fine, we just need to keep heading north." Nami said looking at it.


After a about a few minutes has passed Nami and Robin were back inside, and Zoro was looking out at see he then noticed something swimming in the ocean

"What the heck is that?" Zoro said

Zoro then took a closer look and noticed that it was frog doing the front crawl

"HEY YOU GUYS! YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS!" Zoro yelled

everyone then turned towards Zoro,

"What is it!?"Luffy yelled

"I see a Huge Frog doing the front Crawl!" Zoro said

"What!?

"See for yourself! its coming to your side right now!" Zoro yelled

Luffy, Chopper, Ussop and Cray then looked out

Oh come on Zoro theres no way a frog can do the front...HOLY CRAP THERE IS A FROG DOING THE FRONT CRAWL!" Cray yelled looking at the big brown frog with scars all over its body

"Quick after It!" Luffy yelled

"I don;t know why but I think we do need to chase after it." Zoro said

all fo them took out two Long oars and started paddling fast

everyone then turned, causing the entire ship to rock around, Nami then Ran outside

Luffy why are you Changing Course !" Nami yelled

"Your not going to believe this but was saw a huge frog with scars doing the front crawl, and were follwing it." Lufy said paddling

"A Frog?" nami said

"We have to catch up to it capture it and then cook it up and eat it for lunch." Luffy said

"You want to eat that thing!?" Chopper, Zoro, Cray and Ussop yelled

Nami then took out a pair of binoculars and looked out

"Yeah your right...huh? Is that a Lighthouse?" Nami said looking at something distant

"Hey Nami so you see something? is it an island?" Luffy said

"Is it Water 7?" cray said

"No its just a Lighthouse, and even if it was an island I wouldn't know if it was Water 7 or not the eternal pose is barely set in the direction were suppose to be going,, because we cchanged course." Nami said

"what about the frog?, tell us which way the frog went." Luffy said

"Not a chance. "Nami said

"It seems to be headi g towards the lighthouse." Robin said

"A Frog should be marinated in White Wine to dissolve the Mucus then you coat it with flower and cook it crisp." Sanji said thinking

"Sanji snap out of it." Nami said

"If the Captain says were going after the frog we really don;t have any choice in the matter." robin said

"Robin." Nami said whining

LETS GO FULL STEAM AHEAD!" Luffy yelled

AYE AYE HEAVE HO! HEAVE HO!" The four of them chanted going faster to catch up to the frog and to the light house. The Frog then Jumped high into the sky

"Quick lets get behind him and block its course!" Luffy yelled

As they made it to the Lighthouse they then felt themselves hit something hard knocking them all down

"I guess we ran into shore or something." Ussop said

Is everyone Okay? Sanji Nami Robin are you guys alright up there?" Cray said

"Yeah were fine." Nami said

(DING, DING, DING, DING, DING)

"Whats is that Sound?" Nami said

(CHOOOO CHOOOOO!)

everyone looked and noticed a huge Mechanical Machine heading towards them a break neck speed.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?" Cray yelled

Full Reverse Now! at 180 Degrees!" Nami yelled

AND THAT IS A WRAP! LONG RING LONG LAND IS FINALLY OVER! OH MAN I'M SO EXCITED! WATER 7 HERE WE COME!
