Chopper frowned as he stared out of the alley he was in. 'That was close, those guards nearly caught us.' He thought as he saw several Samurai run down the street. He waited as the last one passed, holding his breath as he inched near the entrance to take a peak. He let out a sigh of relief as he saw the last one round the corner and head down another street.

He smiled as he looked around. Ever since he and the others had arrived in Wano things had been difficult for him, they had been trying to lay low as they waited for Luffy to come up with a plan. However, while everyone else was finding jobs and their own special places in society, he was struggling. 'I guess they're not used to people who don't look human, much less devil fruit users like me…'

He double checked for anyone looking before quickly scampering over to the other side of the road and ducked behind a large crate. He sighed as no one screamed, signaling that no one had seen him. Every time he tried to fit in he was either called a monster, a demon, or someone tried to kill and eat him!

'I really hope Luffy figures something out, I can only hide for so long.' He thought as he looked around. 'Maybe I can find somewhere to hide near the docks? Or maybe the sewer… but I don't want to go there!' He thought as he racked his brain, trying to figure out what to do next. That's when he heard laughing and looked around the corner, spotting two Beast pirates looking drunk and leaning against each other as they walked by. He blinked in surprise as he saw them walk down the street, and everyone either ignored them, or got out of their way, despite one of them sporting a jackal-like head. He felt compelled to keep an eye on them, grabbing a nearby basket and used it for cover as he began to carefully follow.

'Maybe I can finally be of use to Luffy here! Maybe they'll reveal something that can help us!' He thought, trying his best to get closer to them without drawing their attention. He made sure to seem like a normal basket when anyone looked his way, being mindful to keep them in his sight, but not let his cover get blown. 'C'mon, you can do this!' He thought as he saw them round another corner. As he turned the corner he saw that they were leading him towards the docks. 'They must be getting on a ship, but to where?' He thought as he kept following them, when suddenly the basket began to cave inwards as he felt someone step on it.

His eyes widened, fear and panic setting in as his eyes quickly darted around the area at breakneck speed. 'Crap, did someone sneak up on me?!'

"Oi, why the fuck is there a basket in the road?!" came a male's voice above him.

"Probably some stupid peasant who can't clean up after themselves."

"Yeah… oi, I think there's something in it." The voice came again as Chopper felt the pressure increase as the foot pressed down some more.

'Oh no! I can't make a break for it! Which means…I'm gonna have to do something Luffy might do.' thought Chopper, gulping before taking a deep breath and clenched his hooves and let out a loud yell, his body expanding and growing, catching the pirates above him off guard as the one on the basket fell backwards, the other one suddenly finding a fist rising up and knocking him under the chin, sending him flying back at the same time as the first one as Chopper stood there in his heavy point. "Watch where you're walking you jerk!" He yelled before quickly dashing away. 'If I'm lucky they won't follow me!'

What he didn't notice was the two of them had gotten knocked out from the sudden move, not having seen him at all as he made his way around the dock. He panted as he finally stopped, leaning against a large stack of crates as he thought he finally lost his 'pursuers'. 'That was close… good thing the docks aren't too busy.' He thought before groaning. 'I lost track of the other pirates though…damn it, I can't even follow someone correctly!' he mentally started to beat himself up, not noticing a figure coming up behind him. 'Maybe I should see if I can go hide out with Brook…'

"Hey." A deep voice suddenly called Chopper as he felt someone grab his shoulder, making him freeze.

'Oh no!' He thought, paling. 'Did they follow me?!'

"Where do you think you're going?"

Chopper slowly turned his head to see a tall, gruff, and scary looking Beast pirate with a scar going down his face, who almost dwarfed him in his heavy form. "I…I…"

"You trying to sneak away ya punk?" He glared. "Just cause you're some new runt doesn't mean you get to think you're top shit. The fuck do you think this is, some vacation? Did you really think you could sneak away dressed in that stupid outfit?"

"I… what?" he let out, confused, looking down at the green ninja outfit that was now poorly stretched across his heavy form.

"Yeah, I know you think you can just do what you want, kill whoever, that you can just run wild in this backwards country, but we have rules damn it!" He growled as he began to drag Chopper away.

'Wait, what's he talking about?!' Chopper thought in confusion as he saw that he was being dragged towards a large ship with several other beast pirates on it.

"You may be a gifter, but you better follow orders ya runt!" the large pirate bellowed with a frown.

"Uh...but I'm-" Chopper started, still confused on what was going on.

"Yeah, yeah, I get you're new, now shut up and sit down!" The member cried before heaving his arm back, still clutching Chopper's shoulder. He threw him, sending him flying through the air until he landed hard aboard the ship with a thud.

Chopper's eyes rolled around from the sudden throw, momentarily confused. All around him the pirates began to laugh as they stared at the new unwilling passenger.

"Hahaha! Look at this idiot!"

"Idiot thought he could just run wild!"

"What a moron! Imagine getting a devil fruit and it just makes you hairy!"

Chopper shook his head, snapping out of it as he registered what they said. 'They think I'm a beast pirate?' He thought as he began to notice that several of the pirates were sporting strange animal additions. A pair of hooves here, a tail there, an animal head on their gut for one of them, and so on. He looked down at himself and started to relax. 'Of course, I blend right in. Phew, I thought I was found out.'

"Alright, that's the last of them, take these bums back to Onigashima!" The large pirate ordered as the captain nodded, with the ship pulling up the anchor before it started to move.

"Eh?" Chopper blinked as he saw the dock starting to get smaller and smaller. "Hey wait!" He cried as he ran to the edge of the ship. "I'm supposed to stay there!"

"Nope, not anymore runt!" barked one of the pirates before grabbing his shoulder and pulled him back. "Now sit down!"

"Bu-"

"I said sit!" He shouted as he shoved Chopper towards a group of pirates. "And shut up!" He snapped before walking away, grumbling under his breath as Chopper groaned, falling into the other pirates.

'This is bad, really really bad.' Chopper Thought nervously. 'They're taking me away from the others! How am I supposed to meet up with them again?!' he thought before getting shoved by one of the pirates who smirked.

"So, what's your deal runt? Trying to run off and have fun on your own, huh?"

"I uh… yeah…YEAH!" He said as an idea came to his mind. 'I can't fit in at Wano, maybe I can hide among the beast pirates!' he thought before pausing. 'I'm hiding among the beast pirates… probably heading to their base… with no one knowing where I'm going… oh no.'

"Ha! Well where we're going, there's way more to do then in this hick place." Laughed the pirate as he put an arm around Chopper's neck. "It's gonna be great! 24/7 party! But you better change before we get there, you look like a moron!"

"Maybe he's trying to play pretend ninja." snickered another.

"Not exactly a great disguise, I've seen bears smaller than this guy!"

Chopper blushed under his fur, but not making it clear it was effecting him as one walked over with an armful of clothes he tossed at him.

"Get changed and look like a real pirate."

"Oh, right, thanks." He said as he looked around. "Where can I change?"

"Go below decks, there should be a room or something down there."

Chopper nodded and made his way past the numerous other pirates on the ship, finding the door leading below deck and letting out a heavy sigh of relief. 'Finally, things are starting to go my way… kinda.' he started to remove his ninja garbs before getting to work on slipping the Beast Pirate uniform on, albeit with some difficulty due to the muscles.

'Damn it…stupid heavy point… maybe I can shift to a different point?' He thought, debating the idea. 'Maybe horn point? Or maybe I should just be my normal self?'

He had a brief thought bubble showing his forms, leading to the others immediately looming over him with weapons and figuring out something was fishy. 'T-Then again, maybe I can wait to change until I get to the island?'

With that he took some extra time to get the stuff on, albeit feeling mortified and naked, ironic considering the obvious. He looked at himself, seeing the black shoulder pads with white fur on, with a pair of belts crossing over his chest in an x, stretched practically to the breaking point. He was also wearing what were probably baggy pants at one point, but with his large size were now tight shorts that were held up by the belts across his chest. The cape on his bag was so small it looked like a towel compared to what the others had on. To top it off he had stuck a pair of black horns atop his head, a bit in front of his normal horns, which much to his confusion and shock they stuck there, as if fusing to his head.

"I feel like a weird pervert…" He groaned as he made his way back onto the deck, praying that he didn't suffer an untimely wardrobe malfunction. "I just hope no one says anything…"

As he walked back on the deck he saw some of the pirates drinking and laughing, some fighting, and others that seemed to have already lost a few fights leaning against the side of the ship, groaning. He tilted his hat to try and cover his face more as he walked near the side and looked out at the sea, pondering on how far away they'd be sailing to. 'I wonder how long I'll be on the island until I see the others?' Chopper thought before feeling someone tap him on the back.

"Oi, big guy!"

He steeled himself and glanced over his shoulder, trying to make it seem like he was tougher than he seemed and tried deepening his voice. "Yeah?"

"You up for a bit of fun? This leaky tub won't arrive at the island for a bit." A tall beast pirate grinned, sporting a throbbing black eye.

"What kind?" he asked, managing to keep his voice even.

"Endurance test! We're seeing if any of us can stand up to one of the crazy bitch's punches!" He laughed, gesturing to the front of the ship where Chopper could both hear and see grunting and the sound of fighting.

"I'll pass." he replied, turning back to the sea.

"Aw c'mon, all the other gifters here aren't exactly strong, and you look like you could knock out a warship!" he laughed, slapping Chopper on the back with him shaking his head.

"It's not me." he replied, causing the pirate to look at him like he grew a second head.

"Eh? What kind of beast pirate doesn't like to fight?!" He shouted incredulously, making Chopper freeze.

'Oh no!' he thought, glancing to see a few others look their way, sweating a little before he gritted his teeth and rounded on the guy, poking his chest with his finger and put on his best glare. "I mean, it's not me because I'd wipe the floor with you and anyone else who got in my way!"

The pirate blinked at the quick attitude shift before laughing and shaking his head. "You almost got me there! C'mon, let's go! I can't wait to see you throw that bimbo on her ass!"

Chopper nodded, making himself keep up the scowl as they walked towards the crowd and saw one random pirate go flying over them and crash behind them. 'Ok, I just need to punch someone… or am I getting punched? Damn it, I should have paid more attention!' He thought as he was pushed through the crowd to a cleared spot on a deck where a lone figure stood. His eyes widened seeing it was a woman of slender build with white skin, barbie-pink colored hair, and light blue eyes. She wore two pieces of red-violet metal breastplate armor with golden spine-like dots and white fur covering her breasts around them, a red-violet thong, a pair of black gloves, black calf-length high-heel boots, small thin golden earrings on her ears, and an open black cloak with white fur and spine-like dots with two black horns on her head like the rest.

'Wait, is that…. She was on Zou!' He thought, feeling a flash of fear go through him.

"Who's next, who thinks you can take me on, who thinks they can knock down Ginrummy?!" she called out to the others, numerous ones crying out before her eyes settled on him, making him inwardly gulp nervously. "Is it you?"

"Y-Yeah!" He said, his voice cracking a bit, making her cock an eyebrow.

"Really? Fine, let's get this over with." she cracked her knuckles and walked towards him, making Chopper inwardly freak out.

'Come on, think! If it's about endurance, then I either need to outlast her, right? So maybe I can win without having to throw a punch!' He thought as he took a stance, preparing to get hit. 'Ok, I just need to take a few punches and last, or take a few and then take a fall like everyone else has.'

The woman got within arm's reach of him and clenched her fist before it came at his face, making him tense up as it slammed into his cheek, making him grit his teeth and keep from falling over as he stayed on his feet.

The crowd roared as they saw him still standing, with Ginrummy mildly surprised. "Hm, alright, fine, maybe you aren't as weak as I thought. Your turn."

Chopper clenched his fist and swung, slamming it into her own cheek, which made her stumble to the side before catching herself, getting the crowd roaring louder. The pink haired pirate grinned as she cracked her neck and threw another punch at him. This went on as they took their turns, their faces slowly getting more and more bruised as the crowd ate it up.

"Come on! Fall down!"

"Kick her ass!"

"C'mon, I have my booze rations riding on this!"

'Why am I doing this?!' thought Chopper, his fur looking messed up as he took another punch to the nose, stumbling a little, but not dropping down yet.

"Fuck… you're good, you're better than all these pathetic losers!" Ginrummy laughed, wiping a trail of blood off her face as she grinned at him.

"Thanks." he answered back before swinging for a left hook, nailing her in the chin and this time causing her to go flying backwards, making all of them go quiet as she went through the air and nearly touched on the ship before her legs came down and narrowly braced the impact, her back bent to where it just barely missed touching it and stood back up. "You're good too."

"Mmm, never thought I'd find someone like you here~" She chuckled, stumbling forward as she cocked her fist back and hit him on the cheek, making him turn his head. "Here I thought there were nothing but weaklings on this boat."

That comment got a lot of jeers and insults from the other pirates as Chopper weakly nodded. 'Would not be a good time to tap out? This feels weird, I'm a doctor, I shouldn't be beating her up for no reason!' He clenched his fist and took a stance. 'Stopping it would be best or else I'll just tire myself out before getting there. It's time to end it!'

"C'mon, what are you waiting for, hit me, hit me!" Ginrummy shouted, seeing Chopper pausing.

"O-ok, ok." He said, shaking his head. 'One last punch, then when she hits me I'll take a dive!' he thought, throwing one more punch, this one knocking her back through the air once more. This time however, she didn't catch herself, instead she hit the deck hard. His eyes widened with the others gasping in shock, all waiting for her to get up.

"Oh… shit." Chopper let out as he moved towards her. "Um… hey, you ok?"

"He did it!"

"He knocked her on her ass!"

"My rations are safe!"

All around him the pirates began to cheer as Chopper tried shaking Ginrummy to wake her up, with the pirate starting to groan.

"Ugh…what the?" she let out, seeing him over her as he pulled back and let her sit up. "Damn it, I lost, didn't I?"

"Yeah, sorry." He got out, rubbing the back of his head.

"No, no, it's fine, in fact, I couldn't ask for a better loss." She grinned, looking at him with a strange glint in her eyes.

"Oh, then…you're welcome?" he answered, standing up while getting his back slapped by a few of the others.

"Oh yes, thank you." She chuckled, licking her lips a bit as the other pirates surrounded Chopper. 'Finally, someone was able to beat me~'

"Wow, the runt's got some bite in him!"

"Yeah! Good job!" Another laughed as they patted Chopper's back. Unfortunately, they hit exactly the spot that was holding the belts together, and the force finally made them snap. They fell down with Chopper feeling his face warm up, feeling a pair of eyes looking over his body in a way that gave him a chill down his spine.

"E-Excuse me!" He cried as he pushed through the crowd, trying his best to hold up his outfit. As he looked around he noticed that the ship was sailing into the entrance of a giant island in the shape of a large skull with horns on it. He felt a cool chill in the air, the kind that one would feel before a horrible disaster. 'Please let this be from my pants falling down!' He gulped as the ship sailed into the bay, where he saw a plethora of beautiful decor, seeming almost like he was entering a strange fantasy land.

"Hahaha! We're here!"

"Finally!"

"Time to cut loose!"

"Party!"

The pirates laughed as they began to leap off the ship, some landing in the water as they started to swim to shore, others making the leap to the approaching dock.

'Wait… yes! I can finally change my form and make this stupid outfit actually fit! Or… will it now? It's kinda broken…' he looked down at it before someone tapped him on the shoulder.

"Try these." Ginrummy held up some new belts, bigger than the ones that snapped. "Unless you're the kind who prefers to go running around naked.

"Oh! Uh, thanks?" He said, taking the belts. 'Why is she helping me?'

"No problem. So, what's your name." She said, leaning against the ship as Chopper tried to fix his outfit.

"It's…uh…" he looked through his head as he used the belts to tie the shorts against him, tightening them up as best as possible without snapping them. "T…Tonny."

"Tonny… interesting. So, you're one of the gifters, huh? Or did you join because of your fruit?"

"I'm new, just came on." he answered, trying to be as vague as possible as he looked around the place.

"Ah, so that's not a smile fruit, huh? Interesting." She smiled, looking him over. 'Glad to know he didn't get one of those duds.'

"Nope, all natural." he replied, satisfied with the belts before waving. "See ya!"

"Hey, wait!" She called as Chopper hopped onto the railing and jumped, landing on the dock with a thud. "I'm not done with you!"

"Sorry, but I…I…need to meet an old friend around here!" He quickly fibbed before he took off sprinting away.

"Damn it!" She roared, jumping after him, however she misjudged the distance, and instead of landing on the dock, she fell short and landed in the ocean.

With Chopper, he sighed to himself, looking around as he took in the sights of the place littered with the pirates, slowing down as he let the situation sink in. He was now in the heart of the enemy's base, meaning he had the prime chance to find some important material and information, provided he wasn't found out.

'Ok, you can do this Chopper, you just have to blend in, learn all you can, and not get caught! You can do this!' he thought before spotting a large pair of shrubs. 'Perfect, I can even change out of my heavy point form!' he quickly ducked into it, focusing as his form shifted down, muscles shrinking as his antlers grew out bigger and his frame becoming more slim. 'Perfect!' He thought as he readjusted his outfit to fit better before stepping out, now in his horn point form.

Confidant in himself now, he started to make his way down a path that didn't have as many beast pirates around. "Alright, this is more like it!" He chuckled, feeling more comfortable now that his 'uniform' wasn't so tight. 'Weird those beast pirate horns changed too… eh, problems for later.'

"Tonny! Damn it, where the hell did you go?!"

He stopped and turned, spotting Ginrummy looking around, and looking soaked, before she took off into the opposite direction. 'Why's she looking for me?' he wondered before tensing up. 'Does she wanna play again? Or does she already suspect something's wrong?!' He thought as he began to quicken his pace. 'Either way I'm not going to stay around to find out!'

"How the hell did I lose him that quickly?!" Ginrummy fumed to herself. "At least he's stuck here, it's only a matter of time now!"

With Chopper, he tried not to look too suspicious as he made his way down the path, eyes forward while slowly losing her voice, showing he was gaining distance. 'Alright, now then, I just have to try and find someplace that looks important, and stay away from Ginrummy.' he thought as he looked around, almost pausing as he began to realize everything he'd seen so far looked perfectly managed, fancy, fun, and all together important, which made figuring out what was actually important near impossible. 'Ok… I just need to find a hidden place full of secrets on an island I've never been, in a palace I've never been, patrolled 24/7 by the enemy…'

"Oi, you, reindeer!" A deep voice called out suddenly.

Chopper turned his head, breaking in a nervous sweat. "Y-Y-Yes?"

"Come with me, we need some help policing the pleasure hall." The figure called, with Chopper turning to see a tall man with what looked like a pair of gorilla arms poking out from under his first pair of arms gesturing towards Chopper, making Chopper gulp.

"Sure, no problem." He said, hesitantly following the man. 'Ok... I guess I can find out more about this place and tell Luffy.' He thought as the man grinned. 'I guess it'll help to learn more about the place too.'

"Good. Now, try not to be alone, we keep losing guys who wander off on their own, those geisha's are nuts man." Remarked the man as the two walked towards a rather fancy building.

"Wait, what?!" Chopper asked in confusion. "Geisha? What do you mean by losing people?!"

"Yeah, they like to kidnap some of the guys, and we don't see them again." He shrugged nonchalantly. "We don't worry since we've got plenty more where they came from." He said as Chopper paused.

"W-Wait, what if they try to take me?!"

"Then they take you, their leader is Black Maria, she does whatever she wants." He shrugged. "She's one of the Tobiroppo, we can't mess with them."

"That's terrifying!" He cried out as the man chuckled.

"It'll be fine, you're a gifter, so they might let you go. Eventually I think at least?" he casually remarked without sounding concerned, not helping Chopper.

"Are you already accepting the fact I'm going to get kidnapped?!"

"Duh." He shrugged. "It's an inevitability. The girls are nuts, you're new fresh meat to them, do the math."

'I'm doomed!' He thought before shaking his head and clearing his throat. "U-Uh... maybe you could find someone else then?"

"Nope, now c'mon." He said as they got nearer to the building where Chopper could start making out the silhouette of different people through the paper windows, illuminated by red lights.

'Damn it!' He thought, reluctantly following the man. 'If I try to disobey he'll get mad, and he may even realize I'm not a member of his crew, then I'm screwed! Maybe nothing bad will happen to me. It's not guaranteed anything bad will happen, right?' He tried to think with hope.

As they entered, numerous geishas were seen mingling with various customers. Chopper tried not to stare as he noted that most of them seemed to be devil fruit users, from them having horns, sharp teeth, scales, or some underlying hint that they weren't normal.

He tried to keep his eyes forward and not stand out. 'Ok, just... stay calm and try not to get kidnapped I guess?!' he thought, trying to stay calm.

"Yoohoo~" Called a voice behind him as he tried to just stare forward. "You're a new face around here~"

'She's talking to me, is it worse to answer or ignore her?!' he thought as he glanced backwards nervously. "Y-Yes." He said, spotting a tall tan skinned woman with yellow eyes and long pale green hair. She had a pair of long black horns sticking out of her head and she was dressed in a pink kimono as she grinned at him.

He gulped as he tried not to stare at her.

"Are you a rookie that just joined?" She asked, moving closer as she looked him up and down. 'Hmmm, at least his devil fruit isn't as stupid as some of the others I've seen here.'

"Y-yeah, I am…" he said, glancing back to look for his boss, only to find himself alone in the packed hall. 'Oh no!' He thought, gulping nervously. "I-I should get back to work... it was nice talking to you." He got out, unsure what to say. 'Did he just abandon me?!'

"Oh? And what were you doing~?" She asked, a wide smirk growing on her face.

"I-I was told to uh… police the pleasure hall."

"Mmmm, sounds to me like you'd need to see ALL of the hall then~" She said, lightly grabbing his shoulder as she began to lead him away from the main area.

"Uh, I-I feel like I should police it on my own. Y-You're probably really busy." He tried protesting, even trying to gently wiggle out of her grasp, but she kept a solid grip on his shoulder.

"Nonsense, I insist, you can't police the area if you don't know your way around it, now can you?" She laughed with a grin.

"Well, I-" he started, unable to come up with a good excuse before he found himself practically being dragged away by the tall woman.

"I'll be your personal guide." She grinned. "The name's Tenjo-Sagari handsome, what's yours?"

"Uh ...T-Tony." He said, barely remembering not to use his real first name, much less the fake name he had given to Ginrummy.

"Tony... I like it~." She chuckled. "Well Tony, how do you feel about exploring some of the more... private areas~?"

'I wouldn't like that!' He thought, looking around in a panic. "B-But aren't you with someone right now?" He asked, trying to find a way out of his current situation.

"I am, that's you handsome~" She chuckled. "You could say I just found a new customer."

"But I'm not really all that great! Someone else is probably better!" He protested as he began to notice she was leading him into a quieter part of the building. "I-I also don't have any money!"

"That's alright, we can work something out." She grinned, flashing off a pair of sharp fangs. "If we can't… well I wouldn't be opposed to giving you a discount if you show me a fun time~"

Chopper gulped, but internally told himself to keep it together as he glanced around, trying to get a good idea on the layout for his memory. 'O-Ok, I can do this… I just have to remember this, I don't have to do anything… and she wouldn't really kidnap me like that guy said, right?'

The more quiet things got, the creepier it felt, but Chopper steeled his nerves with the lights dim on the inside.

"S-So…uh… where are you taking me exactly?" He asked, glancing around nervously. 'Please let it be somewhere with a window that I can escape out of!'

"A little room, just for the two of us~" She grinned before pausing before a set of large doors. "Now then Tony, how about we have some fun, huh?"

"I uh… well, maybe? Only for a bit, I really have to get back to work." Chopper protested nervously.

"Aw, don't be so shy. You act like this is your first time." She teased as she began to open the doors.

"I uh… maybe theoretically it… that's not important!" Chopper stuttered, his face heating up.

"It is to me~" she giggled before leading him into the door.

Right as he was about to walk in, he suddenly found himself shoved inside from behind, making him stumble forward into the dark room. He looked and suddenly found the doors slamming shut, everything going into complete darkness. "Wha- hey! What's going on?!" He cried as he blinked his eyes, trying to adjust to the dark. 'Oh no, is she trying to kidnap me?!'

"Relax~" came her voice with what sounded like a hiss on the end, making his ears twitch as he turned where he assumed she was, hearing something slithering across the floor. "We're just going to have fun~"

"What kind of fun?" He called, lowering his horns defensively. "What's going on?!"

"Oh c'mon, just lighten up, and don't bother struggling too much…. No, actually do, make this more interesting, I like it when they struggle~" she chuckled with Chopper closed his eyes, focusing on his ears to try and find her.

As he focused he began to hear the sound of movement coming from directly behind him, making him whip around and keep his horns lowered to try and keep her away. To his surprise he felt a heavy net hit his horns, making him back up in surprise, feeling off balanced..

"Nice try, but I'm not some amateur, its not as if I didn't know what to expect." He heard her chuckle as he tried to keep track of her and shake off the net. "C'mon, just give up and give in~"

"Never!" he cried out, his senses hearing the sound on his right side. He swung his horns that way and heard a slight gasp, but didn't hit anything.

"Not bad, but you can't hit me like that." She laughed. "You lost the moment you went up a trained geisha~"

"What kind of Geisha uses a net?!" he questioned in disbelief before lunging, landing on all fours and now getting a bit panicky as he tried to rip the net off. 'She'll keep toying with me and strike when I lower my guard, I need to turn the tables and fast!' He thought before feeling another net land on him, thankfully it only partially landed and he was able to shake it off.

"I feel like I'm about to catch my quarry~"

"Why are you doing this?!" He cried out, his eyes wide as he looked around frantically.

"I just LOVE playing with fresh rookies, all of them like to think they're top dogs, so it's my job to remind them the REAL pecking order, and it drives me wild~!" she let out while he swore he could see her shaking with a smile that made his fur stand up due to the shiver he felt. "And this, this is perfect~. You're here, on all fours, just BEGGING to be broken~"

"I'm not begging!" He cried as he heard something sailing through the air, making him dodge to the side, only to feel something wrap around one of his hooves as he stepped on something sticky. "Eh?!" He looked down and tried moving his hoof, but it stuck.

"Just give in, you're all mine now Tony~" She chuckled. "You're not going anywhere~"

He gritted his teeth before tightening his muscles and let out a roar, bringing his horns down and smashing them into the floor, loosening the part his hoof was stuck to. He turned his whole body around and started charging the way he came, and let out a yell as he barreled through the doors and flooded the room with light, making Tenjo-Sagari cry out as it showed her lower half being of a snake. That was all he saw before he bolted, smashing through walls, both wood and paper as he tried to escape.

"Wha- no fair!" she hissed in annoyance. "Nobody's supposed to escape me!"

"Well I am!" He cried, shaking his head some more as he tried to free them from the net. 'Should I shift when I'm out of her line of sight?'

"This isn't over!"

Chopper didn't hear her as he ran as fast as possible, rounding the last corner he spotted before quickly shifting to his heavy point, breaking the wood off and tossing the net from his head as he held his breath and listened for anything. He waited as he heard the rubble settling, and the sound of what he thought was a snake, but Tenjo-Sagari never rounded the corner after him.

He leaned against the wall and sighed in relief, turning and heading down the way this side path led to. 'That was too close, he wasn't joking when he tried to warn me!' He thought, sighing. 'Stupid beast pirates, stupid crazy people, who has a tradition of attacking rookies on the crew?!'

As he walked down the hall, he grunted in annoyance, feeling his uniform once more feel tight in his larger form. 'I wonder if I could get away with being in my normal form now? I'm on the island, it should be fine… right?' he looked forward and behind him, not spotting anyone. He took a deep breath and began to shrink down to his normal form, sighing in some relief. He reshifted his uniform, wrapping the belts around himself so they wouldn't trip him up. "Ah, that's better."

He looked around the spot as he walked, ingraining all of it in mind. With how big this place was, he'd need every single bit just in case he got chased or needed a way out. While he did begin to memorize the layout, there was still the issue that he had no idea where he was, turns out when you flee for your life you don't pay attention to where you're going.

"Ok… maybe I can find a window or a room with one, then I can see where I am?" He wondered aloud, still wandering the quiet hall. "If I could find a map of the inside and outside, it'd make things even easier." He muttered before pausing. That… that was perfect! If he could find a map then he wouldn't have to wander this crazy island, he could just hide until Luffy arrived and give him the map! Chopper grinned as he took off, a new goal in his mind. 'Alright, you can do this!'

However, with him in such high spirits and running, he closed his eyes without realizing it, failing to see a person at the upcoming crossroads. As he ran forward he suddenly found himself colliding with someone's legs, sending them tumbling down atop him as they let out a yelp of surprise. "Ow…" he groaned, face down as the person shook their head.

"What hit me?" The figure groaned as Chopper felt the figure move atop him, pausing as as he felt a pair of hands grab him. "Huh? What the hell?"

He felt himself picked up and come face to face with a woman who had a round face, round eyes with prominent lashes, a pointed nose, and long brown hair that was parted in the middle. She was wearing a dark red kimono with pink flowers on it with a pink flower in her hair. 'No, no no no! Is she another geisha like Tenjo-Sagari?! I can't fight another, it'll be suspicious, it might alert Tenjo, and I'm already literally in the palms of her hands!'

"What the…wait." she narrowed her eyes. "Did someone let a tanuki in here?"

Chopper's eye twitched at the comment, as he opened his mouth to correct her only to pause. 'Should I let her know that I'm a pirate or… if she thinks I'm a tanuki she might let me outside!' he quickly stuck his tongue out and tried panting while trying to make his eyes look innocent.

"Huh… well I guess it's kind of cute, but why would someone dress it up? Is it someone's pet?" The woman muttered as she inspected Chopper, trying to find any form of identification. "You don't have a collar, or a nametag…wonder if you're just a wild one they dressed up for kicks." She said, sighing in annoyance. "They should know better than letting some animal run around here."

Chopper just smiled, trying his best not to reveal that he wasn't a stupid animal. 'C'mon, just take me outside already, before Tenjo-Sagari finds me!'

"You're definitely more clean than some wild one." she remarked looking him over at angles, even peeking under the cape to look at his rear making him sweat. "And you don't look like you have any fleas. Hmm…"

'C'mon, just say what you're gonna do!' he thought, gulping as she stared at him. 'Do…do I try surprising her and running? What is she planning?!'

"Oh!" she perked up and smiled. "Since you'll get lost around here, I'll keep you company. It's not safe to wander around here, especially with those rough idiots partying. If they saw a defenseless thing like you, they might be tempted to eat you." She chuckled as Chopper paled. "I've seen them eat rats before, they'd gobble you up in an instant, especially some of the gifters."

'Someone might eat me?!' He thought before the woman began to walk away, carrying him down the halls. 'Wait, is she taking me outside or trying to find my 'owner'? I guess.. This isn't exactly a bad thing?'

"Let's get you something to eat, you're practically skin and bones, except right here." she poked his stomach with amusement, making him frown and make himself bite his tongue at the jab.

'I'm not fat.' He thought in annoyance as she just chuckled.

"After that lets see if we can get you out of this stupid outfit, I can't imagine you enjoy wearing clothes, huh?" She laughed.

He didn't use his words, but he did try to give his best impression of a low yip. 'If she tries to strip me, I'll take my chance and run.'

Luckily for him, she didn't try anything as she kept walking, carrying him down a few more halls.

"I do wonder what your name is, mine's Nure-Onna, I can't believe your owner didn't even give you a collar." She complained as Chopper began to smell something good in the air. She came upon a pair of double doors and pushed them open, the inside showing a vast kitchen with various chefs rushing around, getting dishes and large portion sizes done before they were rushed out. It almost seemed more like a factory than a kitchen, with giant ship size cuts of meat and fish passing them by as Nure-Onna strode in.

"C'mon, hurry it up, the boss wants more beef!"

"Oi, you idiot, the fish is supposed to be smoked, not fried!"

"Where's the chop suey going?"

"You." she walked over to one of the chefs working on a stew. "I need something for this little guy."

"Eh?" The chef said, giving her and Chopper a glance. "Take that thing out of here unless you want him cooked! Are you trying to contaminate the dishes?!"

"Hey, he's just a little tanuki, calm down you fucker!" She hissed, her teeth looking slightly sharp as Chopper swore he saw her stance take a more crouched stance. "Just give me something for him, or else."

"Alright, alright, fine." The chef grumbled before he ladled some of the soup he was stirring into a nearby bowl. "Here, and for the record, that thing ain't a tanuki, I know my meats, and that thing is venison."

"...huh?" She tilted her head, making the chef sigh.

"Reindeer, it's a reindeer. Don't know what it's doing here, but as long as it doesn't get in the way, I couldn't care." he shrugged as he offered her the bowl. "Is that all, or do you want me to stop everything to make you two something special?"

"No…this'll be fine." She said, taking the bowl with one hand as she looked at Chopper in confusion. 'Reindeer? Why was it acting like a tanuki then?'

Chopper started sweating nervously as she left the kitchen, putting the bowl down and gently set him down in front of it, while looking him over again.

"Huh…. I guess there are horns, I thought they were fake like the other pair." She said as she touched his antlers.

Chopper didn't turn his head and instead started to drink from the bowl, his legs clenched just in case.

"Hmmm." She looked him over closely, making Chopper feel like her eyes took on another look to them, and heard her hiss a little, swearing her head and face were moving around him at odd angles that shouldn't be possible. "You know, if you really ARE a reindeer, then that must mean someone brought you here, without any other of your kind here. That's awfully lonely."

'Just keep your eyes down and focus on the bowl of soup! Don't answer, don't engage, don't make her realize you're intelligent!' Chopper thought, trying his best to show no sign of reacting of what she was saying.

"I have to wonder if they're careless, or if your owner doesn't care about you. Then again, that wouldn't make much sense, why bring you here just to ignore you?" She remarked, Chopper's eyes widening when he saw her looking right at his face, finally nothing her neck had stretched out to an abnormal length, and seeing her eyes were slits now, making him nearly choke on the soup before she gave a grin. "If that's the case, I'll help you with that. Why don't you become my little pet~?" She chuckled as Chopper gulped nervously. "After all, I am a pirate, I take what I want, if your owner is so careless they can lose you, then clearly they don't deserve you~"

'Oh no!' he pulled his mouth from the bowl and felt her pick him up again, rubbing the top of his head.

"Don't worry, I'll take real good care of you." She cooed, her voice coming out as a bit of a hiss. "You'll want for nothing, you'll be all mine… hmmm, I suppose I should give you a new name, huh?" She said, turning him so she was looking him directly in the eyes.

'Please don't go with a silly name, I've got my dignity!' He thought as she grinned, which seemed almost a tad sadistic in his opinion.

"How about…Fifi?"

'Do I look like a girl to you?!' He thought as she grinned, nodding.

"Fifi it is~"

'Damn it!' He thought as she laughed, carrying him away. 'Where is she taking me now?!'

"I should show you to a few of my friends, they'll love you. Especially our big sis."

'Ugh, fine. Maybe I'll find a chance to escape later.' he thought as she patted his head, taking him up a few stairs. 'But I can only handle so much.'

Soon she reached a sliding door, opening it to show a well lit room with a large table in the middle with several women sitting around it, and a dumbwaiter where one woman was grabbing food and drinks sent from what he assumed was the kitchen.

"Hey girls!" Nure-Onna called with a smile. "Say hi to Fifi~"

"Nure!" they cheered with smiles as she carried 'Fif' over and sat down, keeping him on her lap.

"Well well, who's this little guy?"One called with a smile.

"A lost little reindeer I mistook for a tanuki." She smiled, patting Chopper's head. "I don't know who he belonged to, so he's mine now!" She declared as the others laughed.

"Ha, of course you would steal someone's pet!"

"What? You make it sound like I'm some common thief." She pouted, crossing her arms when Chopper suddenly found himself grabbed by one of the women out of Nure's lap. "Hey!"

"I gotta say, he is cute, but he may be happier with me." she teased while squishing his cheeks together. "Ooh, he's so fluffy."

"Hey, he's mine! I stole him fair and square!" She protested, trying to grab him. 'He's mine damn it, besides, I want to see him wh-'

"Well if you can steal him, then why can't I?"

"Because you know what'll happen if you do." she hissed, her neck stretching out and raising her head over them with her fangs looking extra sharp in the light.

"Oh please, like you can beat me." The woman chuckled, her voice becoming deeper as she grew, her face extending as she looked almost like a hyena as her fangs grew longer. "You can't beat me Nure, a snakes no match for a jackal!"

"I'll crush your skull!" She roared as Chopper looked at them nervously, starting to fear for his life once more.

'T-They're not gonna fight while she's holding me, right?1' he thought, glancing at them nervously and the other women, hoping one of them would stop them before a fight broke out.

"Oi, oi, would you two stop it, there's plenty of Fifi to go around." one of the girls interjected. "What good is maiming each other going to do?"

"I….fine, just give Fifi back." Nure-Onna pouted, shrinking back a bit, making Chopper sigh in relief.

"...fine." the girl huffed, her face and claws going back to their previous shape. "But I better get some cuddle time with him later!"

"We'll see." Nure-Onna said as she reached to take Chopper back.

Chopper inwardly grumbled as Nure-Onna held him again and rubbed across his head, which he really didn't want to admit felt pretty good. 'Ok… maybe this could be worse, once we leave and she eventually goes to sleep or takes her eyes off me I can shift and escape before she can see me again. At least she isn't trying to capture me like Tenjo-Sagari or fighting me like Ginrummy.'

"Hmmm, maybe I'll get Fifi a nice bow for her head." Nure commented, grinning as the girls around her laughed, and Chopper tried not to sigh.

'Just a bit longer, just a bit longer and I can safely escape.' He thought when he heard the door to the room slide open. Looking over, he nearly let out a yell of surprise seeing it was Tenjo entering, lack of a tail mind you. 'No, no no no no no!' He thought, doing his best not to react, but he couldn't help but stare at her as she sauntered into the room.

"Hello girls." She grinned as she sat down, looking at them only to freeze as she spotted Nure-Onna and Chopper in her arms. "Nure-Onna? What's that?"

"This is Fifi, isn't he cute?" She grinned as Tenjo stared at Chopper.

"Uh-huh… is he a new pet?" She asked, recognition flashing in her eyes. 'Is he… but how did he get so small?'

"Yes, I found him just a bit ago, all alone without a tag or collar, so I decided to make him mine." She grinned as Tenjo-Sagari nodded.

"I see… do you mind if I hold him? He just looks so cute." She grinned, her fangs showing as Chopper paled.

'She knows, she knows, she definitely knows!' He thought as Nure-Onna nodded. She held him out with Tenjo-Sagari's eyes narrowing and her grin widening. 'No no no no no!' Chopper thought, starting to struggle as Tenjo-Sagari reached out to take him. 'I can't let her grab me!' He thought as he struggled even more.

"Oh? Is something wrong…TONY?" Tenjo-Sagari asked before trying to grab him.

He yelped and jumped to the side, landing on his legs as Tenjo smirked with Nure and the other girls gasping. "Not again!" He cried, looking around frantically for an escape.

"Wha- Fifi? Oh come on!" Nure groaned.

"So you can change size, interesting." chuckled Tenjo as her legs started to merge into her tail with Chopper gulping. "I wonder what else you're hiding~"

'Crap crap crap!' He thought as the other women at the table began to stand as well. 'There's no windows, Tenjo is blocking the door, what do I do?!'

"Fifi… why did you… damn it!" Nure growled, shaking her head. "I wanted to break you damn it, not that green hussy!"

"Too bad, I saw him first." Tenjo grinned, glancing at her. "So you knew, huh? Too bad you didn't act sooner!"

"Of course I knew, he's a reindeer, wearing one of our uniforms, it's not hard to connect the dots that he's a gifter." She grumbled as her neck began to stretch out. "I just wanted to see how far I could push him before he gave up his act!"

Chopper gulped as he glanced around before spotting the dumbwaiter one of the women had gotten food from earlier. 'Bingo!' he narrowed his eyes. "So you gave me a girl's name on purpose just to mess with me?"

"Bingo~" She chuckled. "I was curious how far you'd go, I had so many things planned to push you over the edge, and she ruined it!" She hissed as she glared at Tenjo as she moved towards Chopper.

"Well too bad for you both!" he cried, running at them as the two women lunged at him, only for him to duck down under them and run across the table, lunging and landing in the dumbwaiter. He grinned as he hit the button, sending the elevator down as the two women looked at him in disbelief. "Bye!"

"NO!" They cried as they scrambled to stop him as the elevator shot downwards.

'Ok, I got away, but I need to find a way out of this place! It's dangerous here!' he thought as he considered his options. 'Ok, so I need to get out of the building, this leads to the kitchens…maybe I can sneak out that way?' he thought when another thought flashed through his head. 'This is a dumbwaiter… and they know where the kitchen is…crap, are they going to get down there to try and find me?'

He weighed his options, but given his area, it's not like he had much breathing room, until…

'Wait! If this thing could reach that room, maybe it can reach others! I could get to another room and give them the slip!' he thought as he looked around desperately. 'Ok… so how do I stop? It's not like they make stop buttons inside these things.' He thought as he felt around, trying to find some way to stop the small elevator. His hooves didn't find any buttons, but they did feel up the rope. "We do this the hard way." he thought as he grabbed the rope and gave a sharp tug as he tried to pull himself up. He felt the weight was a bit more than he could handle in his current form however, leading to him letting go before he felt it move and start lowering down. 'Yes!' He thought as he grabbed the rope again and began to pull again, making the dumbwaiter slow even more. 'Ok, I just need to do this until I see a chance to jump out!'

He opened the door slightly and kept an eye out for light, easing it a little without stopping it completely. He grinned as he saw a light appear in the door, showing that he'd reached a new floor to get off on. He opened the door and dove out, letting the box move down as he looked around and saw the room was empty. 'Yes!' He thought as he stood up eagerly. 'I did it! I'm finally alone! I lost them!'

He made his way towards the door and opened it, about to make his way out, only to stop when he heard the sound of humming along with running water.

'Huh? What is that? Is someone here?' He thought in confusion and a tinge of fear. He turned to see a side door and moved over carefully, the humming getting louder. 'Oh no!' he thought, looking around frantically for somewhere to hide or escape. Sadly there was just a simple table with nothing more. 'Crap.' he thought as he dove forward, trying to hide under the table.

The sound of the water stopping could be heard as the voice stopped humming with the sound of the door opening and closing, followed by footsteps. He noticed that the humming sounded feminine as he saw a pair of long, thin legs pass by the table. 'Just keep walking, just keep walking!'

"Nothing beats a nice hot shower." came the woman whose voice sounded calm and collected as Chopper sat her stop at the table and get on her knees, not moving to cover up and leaving her bare legs clear as day for him to see. "Now to let my body air dry."

'WHY?!' Chopper thought, doing his best not to stare at her, and trying not to think about what he had seen when she got on her knees. He covered his eyes while biting his lip, not wanting to make a sound. 'Maybe.. I can just wait this out? Its not like she can see me, right? As long as I don't do anything stupid, it'll be fine.' he listened as she shifted a little, but nothing that seemed worrying, but with his eyes covered he didn't see her trying to stretch her legs out. Suddenly he felt something long and slightly wet lightly hit him, and freezing as it felt him before he felt a hand grab him and pull him out.

"Huh? What the fuck is this?" He heard her mutter as he opened his eyes to find himself staring at a woman with bright yellow eyes and pink lips, with long dark pink hair that seemed to grow in dreadlocks, which was soaking wet as she looked at him in confusion. "Huh."

He paled and went wide eyed, letting out a silent scream at being so close to her as she looked him over.

"What are you? How'd you get in my room?" She asked as she turned him around, looking him over in confusion. "I thought I locked the door?"

"I-I-I'm so sorry!" he let out, arms flailing around before his eyes caught sight of her bare and soaked body and chest, making his face turn bright red as she stood up without trying to cover herself.

"Eh, it's fine." She shrugged. "What I want to know is what you're doing here, and do you like what you see?"

"I…what?" Chopper asked, pausing in confusion as he processed her words, and realized she didn't sound angry, embarrassed, or mortified. If anything she seemed curious, or even bored.

"Are you deaf? How did you get in here? Do you LIKE what you see?" she repeated more slowly.

"I… got in through the dumbwaiter and…y-yeah?" He let out, his face turning red. "Wait, what is going on?!"

"I'm talking to a furry midget who likes my body." The woman said, grinning smugly. "Never seen you before, you a rookie?"

'Y-Yeah, but… aren't you mad? I just saw everything!" He let out, trying to cover his eyes again.

"So? I'm not ashamed of my body." She grinned. "I look amazing, why would I get upset about people seeing me?"

"B-But I…uh…I…" Chopper tried responding, only to feel himself coming up blank.

"Besides, you don't look like one of the usual pervs who'd try and fuck me, are you?"

"W-What?!"

"I'll take that as a no." She chuckled.

"So… what happens now?" Chopper asked hesitantly. The woman was still holding him with one hand, as if she was inspecting him, like one would a watermelon at the store. 'This…is new. Nami usually gets mad when people see her naked, and Robin nearly killed Brook for peeking. Do some people like being stared at?'

"So why were you in the dumbwaiter?" She asked, not answering his question.

"I… I was running from some geisha." He responded nervously. "They uh… they were trying to capture me." He admitted, still feeling off from the whole situation.

"Oh, yeah those girls can get pretty dark." She chuckled, tossing Chopper up a bit much to his confusion. "They can be kind of crazy when it comes to rookies."

"Um… ok, really, what is going on, and what is going to happen now?!"

"Gonna need to be specific."

"Ok, what do you plan to do with me, or try to do with me? You've been looking at me, a-and inspecting me, what are you thinking?"

"Wow you are wound tight, huh?" she casually remarked before putting him down. "You need to lighten up, get drunk, maybe smash something, the usual things to do in this crew."

"I-Is that what you pla-"

"Eh, not yet. I think I have a better idea for now. I don't mind you seeing me, but you ain't getting a show for free." She grinned as he gulped.

"Uh…would it help if I closed my eyes?"

"Nope~" She chuckled. "C'mon, take responsibility. Also you won't need this." She said as she pulled off his cape.

"Wait, what are you gonna do to me?" He cried out fearfully as she began to lower herself to the ground, only to place him on the ground, much to his confusion. "Huh?"

"Stay there." she replied before bringing her head down against his back, pinning him, but feeling her nuzzle her cheek against his fur. "Ah, much better." She replied, lying on the floor as Chopper looked up in confusion.

"Wait… what?"

"I'm gonna use you as a pillow while I dry off, nothing major." She sighed. "I gotta say, you're pretty comfortable for a small guy."

"But I'm not a pillow."

"Well until I say otherwise, you are." She remarked, not moving. "So get used to it."

Chopper opened his mouth to protest, only to pause. Despite the small amount of pressure on him, this wasn't exactly a bad experience, and he was hidden from the other geisha's like this. He felt her nuzzle again and go still, making him sigh. "Alright, but no drooling."

"I'll try." She chuckled as she closed her eyes. 'Damn, he makes a pretty nice pillow.'

Chopper sighed as he closed his eyes, deciding to get some rest while he could, not like he could do much else in this position.

Both of them slowly relaxed, loosening their muscles as their breathing got softer and quieter.

(Later)

Yellow eyes blinked open as the woman yawned, feeling well rested and fully dry, with her head resting on something soft. She could hear a soft snore coming from beneath her, making her remember what had happened before she had gone to sleep. Sitting up, she turned to see Chopper drooling on the floor while completely out of it.

She grinned as she looked at him, getting up silently as she went to grab her clothes. 'I guess he kept his end of the deal, huh?' She thought as she began to get dressed, silently donning a pair of black boots, a dark purple bikini bottom, a dark red top with yellow spots attached to shoulder guards and a black fur cape. I wonder… is he truly even with me? I suppose I could still have a bit of fun~'

She got on her knees and moved her hands down to his sides, lightly rubbing across the spots. As she did so, Chopper began to let out a small laugh in his sleep, starting to shake back and forth in an attempt to make whatever was tickling him stop, to no avail. 'Wow, he's a real heavy sleeper, huh?' she moved them to his back and moved them lower, making him laugh louder. She grinned as she kept it up, with Chopper practically flopping around in laughter, still dead asleep. 'Wow, I could get use to this.' She thought as a thought crossed her mind. 'He won't wake up, and he did say he was trying to escape the geisha… maybe I could get away with keeping him and leaving with him?' She wondered as she kept tickling him. 'Then again, how would I get away with smuggling him out?'

"Hehehe….stop it…hehehe…" he muttered as he tried to swat his hooves around, but failed to even touch her hands.

'Hmmm, maybe I could get him….or….huh, kind of blanking on this one.' She thought absentmindedly as she kept tickling him, enjoying his laughter. 'Eh, either he's gonna wake up and try to leave or I'll figure something out.'

Chopper laughed louder as his eyes started opening.

'Huh, I guess I waited too long… should I stop or…nah.' She thought as she kept it up.

"S-Sto…Stop….hehehe…." He laughed as his eyes finally opened before he saw her grinning above him. "Wh-What are you…hehehehe….doing?!"

"I wanted to tickle you." She remarked bluntly. "I was curious if you were ticklish."

"S-Stop it!"

"Mmmm, maybe." she remarked as she lightened up, giving him a chance to try and catch his breath before she resumed. "But maybe not."

"W-What do you mea-" He started only for her to shoot her hands out and tickle his sides again. "S-Stop tha….hehehe….that!"

"I don't know, I kinda like it." She grinned. "You are pretty entertaining. Plus once I stop tickling you you're gonna try to run, right? You want to leave the pleasure hall, correct?"

"Y-Y-Yes! Hahahahaha!"

"Well, I could help you, but you gotta make it worth my time." She smirked as Chopper's eyes widened in surprise. "What do you say?"

"L-Like what ahahahahaha?!"

"Well, as a gifter I have my own quarters, I'm here because my shower was busted so I rented a room here. I have a couple of ideas on how to get you out of here, but you might not like them." she let up, giving him a chance to catch his breath.

"What…did…you have in mind?"

"Well, I could try smuggling you out in my outfit, but as you can see I don't have many pockets." She stated, gesturing to herself smugly. "I also have some other ideas, but it involves the kitchens and the laundry services."

"No kitchen!" he cried out in panic.

"Oh calm down, they wouldn't cook you. I'd just order a big meal, shove you in it when they're done and have them deliver it to my room. Boom, you're out of the pleasure hall and away from the geisha." She remarked flippantly. "I can't get payment from a cooked meal idiot."

"Oh…that might work." Chopper remarked hesitantly. 'I don't like the idea, but I don't have many other options.'

"Yep. Of course, you'd owe me big time for this." She added with a grin. "A huge meal like that isn't gonna be cheap."

"What would you want?" He asked cautiously. "I don't have any beri on me…"

"I'm sure we could figure that out later." She deflected with a grin. 'I can't have my new pillow getting torn up by the whores here, now can I?'

Chopper stared at her cautiously, weighing his options. On one hand, he didn't want to accept a deal where his end was being kept intentionally vague. On the other hand, what other choice did he have? He stood up and held out his hoof. "Deal."

"Perfect." She grinned as she shook his hand, before using her grip to pull him up. "Alright, let's go. That meal isn't gonna order itself!"

"Wait, how do you plan on sneaking me down to the kitchen, the geishas know what I look li-" Chopper started before she moved him behind her and underneath her cape.

"Alright, so here's what we're gonna do, you are going to try and hold onto the back of my bra and panties, and stay there, alright?"

His eyes widened, face heating up as he wrapped his limbs around her when she let go, making him forced to hold on like a koala. "W-Wait! That sounds risky!"

"Would you rather I send you down the dumbwaiter with a note telling the cooks to shove you into my meal?" She asked, raising an eyebrow. "I'm sure that couldn't possibly go wrong, right?"

"But what if I slip? Then you'd be….naked."

"Only if you fall. Besides, I got nothing to hide, who cares if people see? If it was up to me I'd walk around nude, but I've been ordered to wear something for our uniforms." She groaned.

"Sanji should never meet you…" He muttered to himself.

"Alright, let me just put in my order, and then we'll go." She said as she approached the dumbwaiter and began to write down something on a notepad kept near it. "What do you feel in the mood for? Pig roast? Giant bowl of ramen? Lo mein? Pudding? Giant tankard of sake?"

"Does it matter?" Chopper groaned.

"Well if you're hiding in it, pretty much." She shrugged. "But if you want me to choose, fine."

Chopper groaned as he shook his head. "Fine… how about Lo Mein?"

"Perfect." She grinned as she wrote down the dish, her room, and finally added a small stack of bills before sending the elevator down. "Alright, let's go! Now remember, you just hold on, alright?"

"I'll try." Chopper admitted, doing his best to hold on. 'At least she's dry or else I'd slip right off.'

The woman nodded as she began to walk, noting how he slightly rubbed against her as she did so. 'Damn, he even feels nice like this! I know I'm gonna get my money's worth with him~' She thought with a smirk.

Chopper tried to stay quiet as the pink haired woman left the safety of her room, and he soon found himself hearing other people as she made her way through the hall. He resolved himself and tightened his grip, keeping quiet as he heard the occasional word or talk going on as they passed by others. To his surprise, the plan seemed to be working as they made their way through the halls, with her even pausing every now and then to greet pirates she recognized, seeming as if she was in no rush at all, let alone like she was smuggling someone out of the building.

"Hey Mako, have a good sleep?" Someone called as she laughed.

"Kinda hard with no beds! You'd think some place called a pleasure hall would at least have futons!"

"Well I wouldn't be doing much sleeping in the first place."

"Fair enough you horn dog!" She laughed as Chopper realized he had just learned her name.

'Did…did I really make this whole plan and hold onto her like this without even knowing her name?!' He thought, blushing in embarrassment.

"Almost there." She whispered quietly as she began to make her way towards a large set of stairs. "It might get a bit shaky."

'Shaky?' Shopper thought in confusion before he suddenly found himself shaking up and down as she began to descend the stairs. He tightened his grip on her, bracing himself. He tried his best to hold on, feeling his feets grip on her bikini bottoms starting to slip. 'No no no no no no!' He thought, doing his best to hold on. 'I have to get out of here, I have to see the rest of the island, I have to help Luffy, I can't get caught by a geisha!'

"Just a bit longer." She whispered. "Just a few more floors and we'll be at the kitchens, don't fuck this up."

He pouted, but tightened his grip. 'I can last that long, I've handled way worse.' He thought, holding on as if his life depended on it, which in a way, it did.

"Ugh, what do you mean you still can't find him? Tony has to be around here somewhere!"

He tensed up hearing his name and sucked in his breath. 'Please, please just keep walking, don't let them find me!'\

"Calm down, it's not like he can just leave, I already told some waiters to watch the exits for a reindeer gifter, I told them that they got too rough with one of us, and that's why they need to stop him." Came another familiar voice, this one sounding like they were right behind him and Mako.

'Why do they want me so bad?! Aren't there other people they can go after?!'

"Hey Mako!"

"Eh?" Chopper heard his accomplice say as she, much to his horror, stopped. "What is it?"

"Have you seen a gifter around here? A reindeer one with fur all over his body and antlers, pretty muscular too. We're on the hunt for him." He heard Nure-Onna ask.

"Not really, but I did see this little guy with horns crawl out of the dumbwaiter in my room." She admitted with a shrug. "That was about… two hours ago I think."

"A little guy?"

"Yup, real small, no muscles at all." She said as Chopper felt his blood turn cold.

'What is she doing?!'

"But hey, if you're looking for someone muscular, try someone else. There's loads of muscle heads, so maybe he went to party with them." She shrugged as she turned to leave. "All I know is that he ran out of my room like a little bitch when he saw me, like a frightened mouse."

"That does sound like him, thanks!"

Mako felt a small slap from Chopper and watched the two women rush around the corner. "Sorry, had to sell it." she whispered.

"Did you have to call me a little bitch?" He protested in annoyance as she continued on her way.

"Would you rather I avoided them, making them suspicious? They know me, they know how I talk."

"...fair enough."

After that they managed to make it to the floor the kitchen was on, and Mako leaned against the wall, watching as waiters poured out of the kitchens, carrying massive platters of food and drinks in a rush, some covered some not. "Alright, we're here."

"Alright… I can't believe this worked." Chopper groaned, currently pinned between the wall and Mako as she kept an eye on the food, waiting to see the dish that was hers. "Should I come out now?"

"Not yet." She said before spotting a large red dish exiting the kitchen, the smell of noodles reaching her nose. "Bingo~"

"Just hurry, I think I'm slipping." he groaned, face heating up since the position meant he was getting squished.

"Just calm down. Oi! You, with the red dish!" Mako called, whistling as she tried to flag down the waiters. "Bring it here!"

The waiters paused, glancing at her in confusion. The first one cleared his throat as he looked at her. "Um, ma'am, this isn't for you, we're supposed to take this to-"

"No, it's for me, I just want to add an ingredient first before it arrives."

"Uh…and what did you have in mind?"

"Don't worry, I have it with me, just come over here so I can put it in." She called as the waiters looked at each other before shrugging, lugging the massive pot on a platform between the four of them towards her, making Mako grin.

"You're gonna need to hold your breath." She whispered as the pot reached them as she lifted the massive lid with one hand and was greeted with the smell and sight of Lo Mein. "Hold on." She whispered as she reached behind herself with her other hand.

Chopper was about to respond when she grabbed him, whipping him out fast and chucking him into the large dish. His eyes widened as he instantly felt the burning heat and let out a muffled scream. 'Why did I choose a hot dish?!'He thought as he looked up, the last thing he saw was her grinning before she lowered the lid, leaving him in the dark.

"Alright, you can take it up to my room now." Mako said as the waiters nodded and began to march away, the pirate grinning as she saw the dish disappear behind a corner. 'Now to meet back up with him at my room and dig in.'

Meanwhile Chopper let out a small groan as he sloshed back and forth, the noodle dish sticking to his fur. Luckily after a few seconds the heat wasn't that bad, it was more so the shock of the sudden heat which had surprised him. 'I can't believe this is working.'

But as he started to relax, he felt it suddenly come to a stop, noting heavy footsteps coming towards the pot. He panicked, trying to imagine what was going on before remembering what he had overheard Nure-Onna saying, that they had guards at the exits. He gulped, imagining they were coming to check the pot, and he tried to dig himself down, trying to cover himself so he wouldn't be discovered.

"Excuse us, we've got to deliver this meal."

"Kunyunyu Kunyu." chuckled a female voice that sounded slightly deep. before he heard the lid open up and stayed completely still. He braced himself, praying that he was covered when to his relief the lid was replaced.

"Yes, it is Lo mein bu- hey, no!" He heard a waiter cry when suddenly the entire pot shook. "That's not-AH!" they cried out before Chopper heard a crash as he looked up and saw the pot being lifted up. "No, no, put that down, put that down! Damn it, give that back!"

The female let out the same laugh as Chopper paled and started to feel the pot tilt with the lo mein falling the direction it tilted. He tried not to cry out as he scrambled to go the other way, to find any source of grip as he looked back to see the lo mein falling into a large, gaping mouth with sharp snake-like fangs. He let out a cry and scrambled to run up the surface of the pot as the mouth started to gobble the noodles up. 'No no no no no! Why is this happening, this plan was supposed to work, where did a giant come from?!' He thought in panic as he began to slide back, the slick pot, drenched in sauce, was hindering his attempts to escape.

The other waiters were helpless to stop the meal getting eaten as they looked up at the relatively human-looking woman with a slender figure, but was taller than an average giant, who had green hair down to her waist, a pair of horns. She was wearing a helmet and goggles on her head, a scarf around her neck, a dark bikini, gloves and elbow guards with the left side of her bikini top having the the daiji for the number nine on it. She also appeared to have the number tattooed on her left arm.

"Please, Kunyun, just stop! I know you're a Number, we can get food for you, but someone else paid for this!" The waiters argued, trying to get the giantess to see reason.

Sadly, she wouldn't have that as she kept on enjoying the fresh meal and dumped the rest down her throat, only to feel something fall in and hear a scream before closing her mouth and swallowed the rest with a grin, right before her eyes widened. She dropped the pot and grasped at her throat, feeling something stuck and cutting off her air. She coughed as she grasped at her throat, trying to dislodge whatever was stuck as the waiters scrambled to avoid both her uneasy steps and the falling pot.

Chopper himself squirmed as the throat squeezed him, making him try to come undone while holding onto the sides. He gritted his teeth and let out a cry. "I'm not going to get eaten!" his form expanded out into his heavy point again, making it a bit tighter still, but a better grip as he started to climb up the throat with his bare hands. Luckily he had managed to stop his descent pretty soon after entering her throat, and soon he was nearly back in her mouth, though he wasn't sure if that was good news yet.

Kunyun kept coughing, feeling that it was slightly easiest to breathe, but she could still feel something lodged in the back of her throat. The giantess began to stumble away as she coughed, trying to make it somewhere where she could deal with this issue.

'Ok… now to get out.' Chopper thought, feeling almost gale force winds hit him from behind every time the giant coughed, each threatening to send him flying. He kept on climbing, trying to ignore the lo mein bits around him as he reached the back of the tongue, feeling the winds grow a bit easier as he got back on his feet and made his way on the tongue, which allowed Kunyun to breathe again. Chopper tried to take a sigh of relief, thinking that the worse was behind him when the floor shifted. The tongue rose up as Kunyun tried to feel what had been choking her. He yelped when he found the tongue wrapped around him and held him tightly. He tried to free himself before the tongue pushed him forward to the front of the mouth, the walls of pearly white teeth rising as Kunyun opened her mouth.

The giantess didn't know what to expect, but she sure didn't expect to see a furry…thing, as she held it out with her tongue, with it covered in saliva and bits of lo mein. She tilted her head in confusion, trying to inspect the strange creature. It looked like it had clothes similar to the rest of the crew, antler horns, alongside the same horns the others had, and seemed pretty muscular as she loosened her tongue and held him by the cape with one hand.

Chopper groaned, feeling exhausted as he looked at the giantess, gulping nervously, but feeling too tired to do anything, and he realized that if she dropped him, he might not survive. "Uh…hi." He remarked nervously as she just stared at him.

"Huh…. you're not noodle food." She said, her voice booming as he gulped nervously, barely registering that he heard what she said, and the words 'kun kunyun' at the same time.

"Uh…no, no I'm not. I'm not food." He said, speaking up a bit, and gulping as her eyes widened. 'That can't be good.' He thought as she held him closer.

"What did you say? You understand me?"

Chopper nodded, feeling unsure if he said something wrong when he saw a twinkle in her eye. To his confusion and worry, she tossed him up a bit before catching him in her hand, tightening it just enough so he couldn't escape before she began to run. "Hey wait! What are you doing?"

"Mine mine mine, he understands me~" He heard her practically sing out in joy, much to his confusion and even more concern when he registered that she called him 'hers'.

'I don't know what she has in store, but it won't involve me!' he thought as he squirmed a little, trying to get his arms loose. 'Ok, I need to get out of here, what does she plan to do, eat me?! I don't plan on finding out!' He thought, as he kept squirming. Feeling himself stuck, he racked his brain before something clicked. His body tightened before he seemingly shrank in her hand, before it was forced open, making her turn with wide eyes as he entered guard point, fell down to the floor, and bounced down the hall due to the speed and inertia involved.

Kunyun stared as the ball of fluff landed on the ground before grinning and grabbing him. "Not so fast~"

"Oh come on!" he cried as she lifted him up to her face. He blinked as she rubbed him against her face, almost like a kid would a large pillow, if that kid was the size of a large building.

"So soft, you just get better and better!" she cheered with Tony blushing from the praise before shaking his head.

"Don't call me soft! Asshole!" he let out with a smile at the praise, falling into his old habit.

Kunyun just smiled and laughed as she kept running, taking him away from the pleasure hall before Chopper could realize what was happening.

"W-Where are you taking me?!" He called, looking down nervously. 'At least I'm away from the geisha… but is this any better?!'

"My room." She happily remarked as he looked at her in confusion.

"Your room? Why? Why are you taking me there?" He called, getting a bad feeling.

"So the two of us can have fun~" she giggled with a blush, his eyes noting her fangs shining as she smiled.

'What does she mean by fun?! She just kidnapped me, almost ate me, and the only other fun I've seen beast pirates have involves punching each other, messing with people, and trying to capture and beat up rookies, and whatever they do in the pleasure hall when they aren't doing the other stuff!' He thought, paling at the idea of 'fun'.

"I've never had someone who I could actually talk to, you're my first!" She laughed as he gulped. "I won't let the other have you, I won't lose you, you're tiny sometimes, so if I let you go, I'd lose you!"

"I-I don't know about that, I uh… have other jobs to d-"

"Nope~" she cut him open. "The only job you have right now is sticking with me~"

"Bu-"

"Nope~"

"I should-"

"Nope."

"Really, I shou-"

"NOPE~" She sang while flicking her tongue against him, licking her lips. "My name's Kunyun, what's yours?"

"Chopper, bu-" Chopper started only to stop and curse himself. 'Damn it Chopper, stop telling people your real name!'

"Well Chopper~, the only place you'll be during this party is in my room~" She chuckled. "Forever and ever and ever~"

'That's the last thing I wanna hear!' Chopper thought before seeing them enter a giant building, one that could properly accommodate Kunyun's size. He racked his head for something before they passed by a wall with a map on it, making his eyes widen. 'A map?! Yes! That's just what I need!' He thought, trying to turn to see it, only for Kunyun to keep moving. 'No! Go back!' He thought, trying to figure out what to do. 'I have to get back there!'

"I wonder if you can grow bigger. That'd make things MORE fun~" she giggled like a certain perverted chef, making Chopper gulp.

"Uh, b-before we go to your room, could you do something for me?"

"What would that be?" She asked, glancing at him with a grin. "Do you want something to eat?"

"No, I just wanted to see that map back there." he said, making her shake her head.

"Why? You're never leaving my room again, remember?"

"I-I was just…wanting to see where we are exactly. Just in case I get lost." He said as she frowned, narrowing her eyes.

"How could you get lost in my room unless… you plan to try and leave, don't you?!"

He broke in a nervous sweat and shook his head. "N-N-N-No! I-I just mean…in case I have to take a piss!"

"I have a bathroom connected to my room!" She grinned before pausing. "That…might be too big for you. Unless you can get bigger?"

Chopper glanced away and shook his head. "Nope, I can't."

"Oh… I can order a smaller one for you?" She suggested. "There's not one within your walking distance, the building is too big for that."

'Great…just great.' he thought as he looked around the area before noting an edge of the map seemed loose from the wall, meaning it could be yanked off with enough force. He looked at her, the map, and felt another dumb and reckless plan come to mind. "Uh, I have to tell you something, could you come closer?"

"Sure." She said, bringing him closer to her face before grinning. "I think I know what you want~"

'Oh no!' "W-W-What do you mean?"

"Don't worry, you can have it, but you'll owe me~" She chuckled. "Pucker up~"

"Huh?" he let out, only to see her close her eyes and pucker her lips, leaning down closer before his eyes shot out of his head with his jaw dropping, unable to make a cry of shock as the lips pressed over his face. He tried to move, back up, do anything, but her hands still held on the sides of his fur in his guard point, trapping him in the kiss. 'What is happening?!'

'Ahhh, my first kiss~' She thought happily, pulling back after a few seconds, Chopper's face and the fur around his face stained lightly pink.

Said doctor's eyes swirled around, speechless as his brain felt like it came to a sudden stop.

Kunyun just giggled as she saw him like this, concluding that he was more than satisfied with the kiss. "We can have more later~" she resumed walking to the large elevator at the end, Chopper's mind slowly coming back online as he registered what she said.

'M-More?! Wh- I…why… why did she…huh?!' He thought, trying to register the mental confusion as he processed that the giantess who had almost eaten him not 10 minutes ago had also given him his first kiss. He groaned as he noticed a light above coming from large lights before he looked around, noting they were in the elevator and saw her pushing a button. His eyes widened when he saw the straight shot down the hall and finally registered the opening.

"As soon as we get there, I'll get nice and bare, and so can you~" she chuckled before noting something, or lack of something. "Chopper?" she squeezed her hands, only to feel nothing. Looking down, her eyes widened seeing him gone, but heard the sound of hooves running as she saw a reindeer bolting from the elevator as the doors nearly closed in on it, with it barely making it as they shut. "CHOPPER!"

'Sorry, but I have to go!' He thought, trying not to listen as he kept running, also trying to ignore the sound of metal being hit. 'It's not you, it's me, I have to help Luffy with the attack!' He headed for the large map, giving a jump to the edge and grabbed it with his mouth, trying to tear it down, but given the size of the stakes in place, compared to his current size, it was holding in place, ruining his initial plan to nab it and bolt. 'Oh no…. Maybe I should have paid more attention to the size.' he thought, glancing at the map, and once more at the elevator. 'What do I do, do I run and leave the map or try to take it?!'

"CHOPPER! GET BACK HERE!" roared Kunyun who was trying to smash through the doors by force, making him feel the pressure as he braced himself, shifting back into his heavy point and started to climb to the stakes holding it in place.

"Please make it, please make it, please make it." He muttered nervously, glancing at the elevator as he saw one of Kunyun's fists punch through it right as he made it to the stake holding one of the corners. He grabbed it and grunted, prying it out of the wall before climbing over to the next one, hanging by the top as he used one hand, then let go and dropped onto the final one before he grabbed it and yanked it out, yelling as he wound up falling right as the map came down, getting wrapped up by it. This led to bracing his fall to where he didnt go splat, but he still groaned as he crawled out and rubbed his shoulder.

"Ow…. ok, now to take this and g-"

SMASH!

"CHOOOOOPPER!"

He paled, slowly turning around as Kunyun had torn the doors down, her eyes seemingly glowing red dots shadowed by her hair which meant one thing.

Time to run. NOW.

Chopper shifted into his walk point and RAN. He left the map, deciding that between it and him living, he'd prefer the latter. 'I can come back for it, right?'

"GET BACK HERE!" Kunyun roared, giving chase, one of her massive shoes landing on the abandoned map, ripping it as she ran.

Chopper didn't turn his head, he just focused on running as fast as possible. He glanced around wildly as he ran, trying to find anything, anywhere he could hide, turn or run where she couldn't get him.

What if…. He goes into the vents? Or a new building?

"TAKE RESPONSIBILITY!" She roared as she began to get closer to him, with the giant taking swipes as she tried to grab him. "YOU'VE BEEN BAD! GET BACK HERE NOW!"

"Look! Fresh ramen!" he cried looking to the left.

Kunyun briefly glanced, trying to see it before looking back to Chopper, only to see him gone. "CHOPPER! Where are you?!"

Chopper panted as he kept running, trying his best to stay out of sight. He didn't know why he kept meeting crazy people on this island, but what he did know was that he would stay alive, and stay free until Luffy arrived. Provided things didn't get more out of hand.

"CHOPPER!"
