Y/N POV…

“Y/N! Wake up!” The gentle nudge pulled me from the depths of sleep, but I groaned, trying to drift back into slumber. Just as I began to settle deeper into my dreams, I was jolted back into awareness when I felt the familiar weight of Zoro beside me. “What the…” I mumbled, blinking slowly and taking in my surroundings. The realization hit me like a wave, and my cheeks flushed a bright crimson as I looked down to see where I had been resting—on Zoro’s chest.

“Zoro, hey! Wake up!” I nudged him again, feeling a flutter in my stomach as I took in the sight of him. He just shifted, groaning softly as his grip on me tightened, his face now nestled against my neck. My heart raced at the unexpected closeness.

“Five more minutes,” he mumbled, and I felt his lips brush against my skin in a soft peck. My breath hitched at the sensation, warmth spreading across my cheeks. “Zoro, please wake up!” I whispered-yelled, shaking him a little more insistently.

But instead of responding, he placed another gentle kiss on my neck. “Five more minutes, princess,” he muttered, a drowsy smile tugging at the corners of his lips. My heart fluttered at the endearment, but I couldn’t let him sleep any longer.

“Roronoa, I swear if you don’t wake up now!” I hissed, a mixture of annoyance and amusement in my voice. Just as I was about to give him another nudge, Nami came to my rescue, delivering a swift kick to Zoro’s side.

“Why’d you do that for?!” he protested, blinking awake and looking thoroughly disgruntled.

Nami ignored him, her expression serious as she moved to wake up Luffy, who was still lost in his “meat dreams.” I rubbed my right eye, still trying to shake off the remnants of sleep.

“What’s wrong, Nami?” I asked, my voice thick with sleep.

“Two samurai have arrived at Wano!” she exclaimed, urgency lacing her tone.

“Crap, you don’t think it’s—” My words were cut short by a surge of anxiety. The thought of the samurai sending word about the imminent threat sent a chill down my spine.

“Luffy! Wake up!” Nami yelled again, her frustration boiling over as she continued to shake him.

Zoro, Chopper, a sleepy Usopp, and I began to get up, stretching our limbs as we processed the information. The previous warmth of the night felt like a distant memory, overshadowed by the gravity of the situation.

Luffy was sleep-running along with the rest of us, grumbling as we rushed to reach Kinemon, Kanjuro, and Momonosuke before it was too late. "No fair, no fair! Why do I have to run before breakfast?" Luffy whined, rubbing his belly.

Nami sighed in frustration. "The whole country is in an uproar! To make matters worse, Cat Viper and the other warriors are already making their way into town as we speak."

"Do you think we’ll be getting another feast?!" Luffy asked, eyes lighting up at the thought.

"Luffy, now is not the time for feast dreams!" I shouted, still running.

We finally caught up with Kinemon, Kanjuro, and Momonosuke just before anyone spotted them. Quickly, we pushed them behind a nearby hidden wall, my heart pounding in my chest. "That was close," I whispered, leaning over and putting my hands on my knees to catch my breath.

Luffy, still unfazed, peered over the wall. "Looks like a fight!"

Just then, Kinemon stepped out of hiding and, to our horror, yelled at Cat Viper and Dogstorm to stop fighting. Kanjuro and Momo soon followed him out of the hiding spot.

Kinemon began his speech, talking about being a samurai and searching for Raizo. I slapped my hand to my forehead in disbelief. "This bonehead," I muttered.

"Someone’s gotta do something!" Nami hissed as Luffy, Brook, and Franky started heading over to them. I was about to join them when Zoro grabbed my arm.

"Zoro, what gives?" I asked, confused by his sudden hold.

"I'll go. You stay here with Nami and Robin for me," Zoro said firmly before making his way toward the others.

We watched as Kinemon stood in front of Cat Viper and Dogstorm, both in tears. “How I’ve longed for this day,” Dogstorm said, his voice heavy with emotion. Cat Viper echoed his sentiment, their heads bowed as a wave of silence fell over everyone.

"Raizo was in fact here all along," Cat Viper announced solemnly, and in that moment, every Mink warrior bowed their heads in reverence. All of us stood there, utterly shocked.

"I’m glad to hear it... thank you, friends," Kinemon said softly, gratitude lacing his words.

"So the whole country knew, but they all nearly died because of it," I whispered, the gravity of their loyalty weighing on me.

"None of them said a word…" Usopp muttered, tears streaming down his face. "They protected their friend until the end…"

"I’m sorry," Cat Viper apologized, "but we had to keep it a secret, even from you. Our people would never sell out a friend."

Kinemon’s voice choked up with emotion. "I am grateful to all of you," he said as he began to remove his kimono slightly, revealing a tattoo. The crest of the Kozuki Clan.

I couldn’t help but tease. "Didn’t take you as a man of tattoos, Kinemon."

His eyes darted toward my chest, causing irritation to spark through me. With one swift punch to his head, I growled, "My eyes are up here!" Kinemon groaned in pain, rubbing the spot where I hit him, before retreating to where Cat Viper and Dogstorm were standing.

"I was getting ready for a fight, but turns out to be best buddies," Usopp grumbled, still baffled by the sudden shift in the situation as we sat on the rubble.

"It's not their fault. Although we are allies, some secrets need to be kept," Robin responded calmly, always the voice of reason.

As Cat Viper and Dogstorm began to argue again, Momo's voice cut through, shaky but strong. "That's enough, both of you, stop!" he cried, tears filling his eyes. "What happened between you two, whatever made you hate each other, I forbid you to continue it. And if it’s because of my father, you know how much it would break his heart to see this!"

Both Dogstorm and Cat Viper froze at Momo's words, bowing their heads in shame. The room fell quiet for a moment as they stopped bickering. I furrowed my brows, still trying to piece everything together.

"What’s going on?" I muttered under my breath, leaning slightly toward Robin.

"Did you just call your own kid... Lord?" Chopper asked, voice filled with confusion, as everyone stared at Kinemon.

"I must apologize for the deception," Kinemon said solemnly. "Lord Momonosuke is not my son."

The shock rippled through our group like a sudden gust of wind. "What?!" Usopp and Franky exclaimed, eyes wide as plates.

Kinemon continued, his expression serious as he explained the truth. "If our true identity had been revealed, it would have attracted deadly enemies."

"So, Momo's...?" I whispered, still processing the information.

"Forgive me for deceiving you," Momo said, stepping forward with a resolve in his small frame that made him seem older than his years. "But I am a lord!"

"Yes, but a naughty one!" Brook said, wagging a bony finger with a teasing smile.

"No, I'm not!" Momo snapped back, his face flushing in indignation.

Just as things seemed to calm down, Luffy suddenly started poking at Momo, inciting yet another round of chaos. "Oh, here we go again," I sighed, rolling my eyes as the two began their usual bickering.

But instead of going after Luffy this time, Momo made a sharp right and, to everyone's shock, dove headfirst into Nami’s chest. "Luffy's a brute! Oh, how he vexes me, O-Nami!" he whined, latching onto her dramatically.

Nami, used to his antics by now, just sighed, patting his head softly. "There, there, Momo."

But then, a mischievous gleam lit up her eyes. "By the way, Momo, if your father is the Lord of Wano, that means his castle must be filled with treasure, right?"

I couldn’t help but laugh softly at how quickly Nami’s thoughts turned to treasure. "Of course she would go there," I muttered with a grin

Luffy and Momo burst out laughing, basking in the joyous atmosphere that filled the air.

Suddenly, the minks began to cheer, causing all of us to turn around in confusion. "Hmm, did I miss something over there?" Luffy asked, tilting his head.

"It seems the minks are quite excited," Kinemon added, his voice calm but curious.

We all looked up, and there it was—a brilliant rainbow stretching across the sky, casting vibrant colors over the landscape. "Look, guys! A rainbow!" I said excitedly, pointing at the dazzling display.

"Wow!" Luffy exclaimed, grinning ear to ear. Minutes passed as we admired the sight, and then we were led to where Raizo was hidden.

We climbed up a massive tree, with Luffy, Chopper, and Usopp making ninja noises and playfully hopping around as they went. "You guys be careful! Don’t want you to fall now!" I called out, smiling at their antics. This caused Usopp and Chopper to freeze in fear for a moment before quickly steadying themselves.

When we reached the top, Cat Viper opened a hidden door in the tree, revealing a path down. Nami was trailing behind, calling out, "Slow down! It’s not a race!" as Robin and I leaped ahead.

"So long, slowpoke!" we teased, laughing as we hurried down the steps.

"What was that noise?" Chopper asked nervously as we continued descending.

"Raizo for sure," Cat Viper replied, which was all the encouragement Luffy, Chopper, Usopp, and Franky needed. They immediately bolted down the stairs, chanting, "Ninja! Ninja! Ninja!"

"There he is—Raizo the Great Ninja!" Cat Viper announced with a grand flourish.

When we finally reached the bottom and laid eyes on Raizo, the reactions from the crew were absolutely priceless. Luffy, Usopp, Franky, and Chopper looked completely horrified, as if their dreams of a cool, sleek ninja had been shattered. Zoro seemed visibly annoyed, his eyes narrowing, while Law facepalmed, clearly unimpressed.

"I guess ninjas are kind of lame," Zoro muttered under his breath, earning a groan of agreement from Law.

"Well, was he everything you boys hoped for?" I asked, unable to stop laughing at their bewildered expressions.

"I can’t believe this place," Nami sighed, shaking her head.

Just then, Robin gasped, her gaze fixed on a nearby stone. "That crest... it’s the Kozuki Clan’s symbol!"

"And that stone... it’s a deep red. I’ve never seen one in such an odd color," she added, stepping closer to inspect it.

"Yeah, that is a poneglyph," Cat Viper explained, nodding toward the stone.

Dogstorm joined in the conversation with Robin, discussing her home in Ohara and how much they knew about her tragic past. "So, can you tell me what makes this poneglyph unique?" Robin asked, her interest piqued.

"This one has a different purpose. Perhaps you’d like to read it?" Dogstorm offered, guiding her closer to the ancient text.

As Robin began to read the poneglyph, the boys continued their ninja fascination, still trying to figure out how this version of a ninja lined up with their wild imaginations. I nudged Nami and pointed toward them. "Look at that," I said, laughing as they huddled together, still confused.

Brook, who had been quietly observing everything, chimed in with his usual humor. "Yohoho! Raizo may not look the part, but I bet he’s got plenty of tricks up his sleeve! Perhaps he could teach me to vanish—although, I already lack a body to hide behind. Yohohoho!"

Nami giggled at Brook's joke, and I couldn't help but chuckle too, grateful for the lightheartedness amid all the revelations.

Suddenly, Robin finished reading and handed us the information from the poneglyph. "Well, Nami, Y/N?" she said, and both Nami and I leaned in to read the details.

"You got all this out of it?" I asked Robin, genuinely impressed.

"With this data, I can draw a nautical chart, then we can pinpoint the location of something, I’m sure!" Nami said excitedly, already thinking ahead.

"This stone has a special name, Road Poneglyph. As you all may know, all of the major players are searching for these to reach the Grand Line. That poneglyph is part of it—it's one of the keys to reaching the final island, Laugh Tale," Dogstorm explained.

"So this is a guide to the final island, Laugh Tale?" I said, feeling the weight of the discovery.

"Precisely so," Dogstorm nodded.

"Wow!" I exclaimed, turning toward Luffy, who had a huge grin on his face.

"If I can go there, that’ll mean I can be King of the Pirates!" Luffy yelled, full of excitement and determination.

"Finally! Laugh Tale!" Usopp cried out, tears streaming down his face.

"It’s just like that flower head told us! So this red stone is all we needed all along?!" Luffy pointed at the poneglyph with enthusiasm.

"Hold on, there’s more," Dogstorm interrupted. "It isn’t the only red poneglyph. There are four of them in total."

"The stone provides coordinates, but the location it gives on its own won’t lead directly to Laugh Tale. The other three Road Poneglyphs have coordinates to different places. Once you connect those points on a map, their true purpose will be revealed. Only then can you reach Laugh Tale at last."

We all shared a look of amazement. "It’s closer than I thought!" Luffy grinned widely, almost bouncing with excitement. "The final island!"

"Once we get there, we’ll know the truth—if it’s real or just a legend... the ONE PIECE!" Luffy declared, clenching his fist with determination.

"Never a dull moment," Robin said, looking over at Nami and me, who were both laughing at Luffy’s boundless energy.

"Alright, let’s go!" Luffy shouted, ready to dash off again. But just as he was about to bolt, Usopp grabbed the back of his shirt collar, pulling him back.

"And go where exactly?! It’s a big world out there!" Usopp said, his tone exasperated.

Luffy, still struggling against Usopp's hold, continued, "We’ll get Sanji, stop Y/N’s wedding, and find the One Piece!"

"And you’re going to do all of that alone?!" Usopp cried in disbelief, still holding Luffy by the collar.

"Well, not exactly. I’m going with him too," I added with a smirk, stepping forward.

Usopp’s face paled as he threw his hands up in the air. "Are you asking to be killed?! This is madness!"

I shrugged with a playful grin, feeling more confident and excited for the journey ahead.

"Honestly, if you travel with Pekoms to Whole Cake Island, we can kill two birds with one stone," said Cat Viper, causing Luffy to stop mid-run.

"We know there are four Road Poneglyphs, and we know one of them is here," Cat Viper continued. "The other two are under the control of pirates—powerful ones at that."

"Figures," Law muttered as he came to stand beside me, arms crossed.

"Okay, well who are these pirates?" Luffy asked, ever curious.

"One of them is Big Mom," Cat Viper revealed.

The moment he said her name, I felt a surge of anger rising. My fists clenched, and I could feel the familiar blue hue from my hidden blades illuminating brightly on my thigh holsters, reacting to my emotions. The light flickered intensely as I muttered under my breath, "That old hag... stupid wedding, stupid Big Mom."

Luffy turned toward me, eyes wide with excitement. "Whoa! You're glowing, Y/N!" he said with his usual carefree laugh, clearly more fascinated by the light than my frustration.

"Captain, this isn’t—" I began, trying to explain.

But before I could finish, Zoro cut me off, stepping up beside me and placing a steady hand on my shoulder. His touch was firm, grounding me, and his voice was calm yet protective.

"Princess here is just getting warmed up," Zoro said, giving me a sidelong glance, his expression half-teasing but with a hint of concern. His thumb rubbed gently over my shoulder as if to ease the tension that was building inside me.

I took a deep breath, trying to let go of some of the anger. "Thanks, Zo. I needed that," I said, my shoulders slumping as the tension faded.

Zoro smirked, his hand still resting casually on my shoulder. "Don’t mention it," he replied coolly, clearly feeling at ease.

But before I could fully relax, Law’s gaze sharpened. He stepped forward, his arms crossed tightly as he eyed Zoro with clear annoyance. "Hey!, don’t get too comfortable, Roronoa," Law said, his voice clipped. "She’s not your ‘princess’ to look after."

Zoro raised an eyebrow and smirked, clearly amused by Law’s irritation. "Maybe, but I don’t see you doing anything," Zoro shot back casually, his tone dripping with his usual calm confidence. "Besides, she seems pretty comfortable with me."

Law’s expression darkened. "Comfortable, huh? You might want to rethink that before you start getting ideas."

Usopp, sensing the tension rising, jumped in with his usual dramatic flair. "Oh, here we go! The epic rivalry between Zoro and Law for Y/N’s attention! Who will win?!" He pretended to wipe an imaginary tear. "This is gonna be good!"

Luffy, now fully entertained, laughed loudly. "Shishishi! Yeah, who’s gonna win?!"

I sighed, trying not to laugh at how ridiculous the situation was getting. "Guys, please…"

Zoro and Law both glared at each other for a moment, neither willing to back down. I sighed, unclenching my hands and glancing up at Cat Viper with an apologetic smile.

"Cat Viper, I apologize for all this..." I said, laughing a bit at the absurdity of it all.

"There's no need, Princess," Cat Viper replied warmly. "I can understand your frustration—being forced into a marriage you don’t want, along with losing your friend as well. It’s a lot to carry."

"It really is," I muttered softly, the weight of everything sinking in. Before I could dwell too much, Cat Viper continued his explanation.

"And the second emperor... Kaidou, King of the Beasts."

Nami, Chopper, Brook, and Usopp all shrieked in terror at the mention of Kaidou.

"That’s fine by me," Luffy and I said in unison, both of us sharing a determined glance.

"So, we just gotta rob them, right?" Franky chimed in with a smirk, causing Robin to laugh.

"Nothing a good stabbing won’t fix," Zoro added confidently, then turned his teasing smirk toward me. "Or in your case, princess, a good shock."

I chuckled at that, my blades glowing faintly at the thought, but I caught Law still glaring at Zoro, clearly not amused by his nonchalance.

"Bring it on! I’ll kick both their butts sooner or later!" Luffy yelled, pumped up and ready for the challenge.

"Have some sensitivity over here!" Usopp cried, tears streaming down his face as Chopper joined him in his panic. "I wasn’t prepared for any of this! I’ll pee my pants if I have to!"

I couldn’t help but laugh at Usopp’s exaggerated fear, the tension from earlier easing with every word.

"Hold on," Cat Viper said with a chuckle of his own, "you guys don’t have to steal the poneglyphs or do anything reckless like that."

"Make sure you don’t tell that to Y/N," Law said, smirking as he glanced at me. "She’ll still come up with some reckless plan anyway."

"Hey!" I protested with mock indignation, but I couldn’t stop a smile from breaking through. "Guilty as charged," I admitted with a playful grin, knowing full well my penchant for diving headfirst into danger.

"Just take an etching, and that way you can read it," Cat Viper suggested, as if the plan was that simple.

Suddenly, Usopp perked up with a wild idea. "We sneak into Big Mom's and Kaidou's hideouts, avoid any confrontations, make a copy, and then bam! We’ll sail straight to Laugh Tale, and everyone is happy!"

Both Luffy and I exchanged a skeptical glance, making faces at the absurdity of it. "Don’t make that face, you guys! You jerks!" Usopp exclaimed, launching himself at me and causing me to fall backward. "That was a good idea!" he insisted.

"No, it wasn’t!" I retorted, trying to push him off, but Luffy tackled Usopp and pulled me along with them.

"I want to kick butt and be manly!" Luffy shouted, his eyes gleaming with enthusiasm.

Now all three of us were in a tangled heap, wrestling on the ground. "Don’t be a wuss!" we both shouted at Usopp, who was squirming in mock terror.

"Don’t get us killed!" Usopp yelled back, trying to wriggle free from our combined weight.

Suddenly, I felt a firm grip on my waist, pulling me away from the pile. I kept squirming, confused and a bit annoyed at being separated from the fun. "Hey! What gives?" I shouted, surprised to find myself pulled away from Usopp and Luffy, who were still tangled up and arguing.

Zoro’s grip tightened, both hands firmly holding my waist as he effortlessly pulled me away from Usopp and Luffy, who were still tangled up and arguing. "You three are causing a scene," Zoro muttered, clearly unimpressed by the commotion we were making.

"Zoro!" I exclaimed, half-laughing, half-annoyed as I continued to squirm in his grasp. "Let me go, I was winning!"

"Winning what?" he scoffed, his tone laced with sarcasm. "Rolling around like kids? Get a hold of yourself."

I shot him a playful glare. "You just don't get it!"

Zoro smirked, his grip still firm. "Yeah, yeah. Come on, stop squirming," he said, his tone firm but amused as he finally let go of me, but not before shaking his head with a slight chuckle.

As I brushed myself off, I couldn't help but notice Law watching the whole thing with narrowed eyes, clearly irritated by the scene. Usopp, still caught in Luffy’s grasp, waved frantically. "I was not losing!" he shouted.

"Yes, you were! I was beating you!" I retorted, playfully sticking my tongue out at Usopp as I dusted myself off. Before I could fully regain my composure, I felt a sudden tug as Law pulled me towards his side.

His arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me close to him. "You're always in the middle of some ridiculous mess," he muttered, clearly trying to hide his annoyance but not quite succeeding. His voice was low, though I could hear the possessiveness in it.

I blinked up at him, surprised by the sudden move, and a playful grin crept onto my lips. "Oh? Getting a little jealous, Law?" I teased, nudging him lightly.

"Don't be ridiculous," he said, though his narrowed gaze on Zoro said otherwise. "Just keeping you out of trouble."

Zoro, noticing the interaction, smirked as if challenging Law. "Don't hurt yourself, Law. Keeping up with her is harder than you think," he quipped, his tone teasing but with an edge that made Law's grip on my waist tighten slightly. I couldn’t help but chuckle at the tension between the two.

I couldn’t help but chuckle at the tension between Law and Zoro, only to be interrupted by Brook suddenly getting himself tangled up with Luffy and Usopp. "Brook! How did you get caught up in that mess?!" I exclaimed, watching the skeleton flail his bony arms dramatically.

"I don’t know, but help! Yohohoho! This is not how I imagined spending my day!" Brook cried, his voice muffled by the chaos.

Suddenly, Chopper’s voice broke through the laughter. "But wait, we don’t even know where the fourth poneglyph is, right? Can we even get to Laugh Tale with just three?"

"I doubt it," Nami said with a sigh, ever the voice of reason. "Even pirates can’t cheat their way into Laugh Tale. Eventually, we’ll have to figure out where that last one is."

As the rest of us continued to watch Brook, Usopp, and Luffy tangled up like a mess of limbs, Luffy’s voice rose above the confusion. "We’ll cross every bridge! There are no rules in becoming King of the Pirates!"

"Says who?!" Usopp retorted, still stuck and clearly not amused. "Someone, help me already!"

Brook, on the verge of giving up, shouted, "Me too! I’m a musician, not a wrestler!"

The absurdity of it all made me laugh, but then Cat Viper’s serious voice brought us back to reality. "But you're the one I’m most worried about, Nico Robin. Those interested in the blank century are also after the poneglyphs. But none of them can read the ancient texts. So, when they hit a dead end... they’ll come after you."

As we all recalled the events of Enies Lobby, a somber mood fell over us. Robin, however, smiled with her usual grace. "I’m not worried. My friends are strong. I know they’ll protect me, no matter what happens."

Her confidence in us made me blush a little, and I noticed Zoro and I exchanging a glance. We both nodded in silent agreement, knowing that we would do anything to keep Robin safe. We didn’t need words to express it, but our shared look said enough.

"It sounds like they have things covered," Cat Viper mused, reassured by Robin's words.

Minutes passed as Cat Viper delved deeper into the history of the Kozuki clan and Kozuki Oden. "They made the poneglyphs," he revealed, shocking us all.

"All the stones were made by them... and I never knew," Robin said in awe, her eyes wide with realization.

"The only thing passed down was the method to decipher the texts," added Raizo, his voice heavy with the weight of history.

The mood darkened as both Kin'emon and Kanjuro tensed at the mention of Oden, and Kin'emon’s voice wavered with emotion. "Lord Oden is gone… and Wano is... Wano is..."

Kin'emon couldn’t hold back his tears anymore, bowing his head and punching the ground in anguish. "Lord Oden was executed… by order of the Shogun of Wano, who is allied with Kaidou. But he faced his death willingly, to save his retainers."

We all gaped at the revelation, the gravity of it sinking in. Law, standing beside me, muttered, "This runs deep."

Kin'emon continued, his voice thick with grief. "Even today, the foul emperor Kaidou and his Beast Pirates control Wano. They don’t want our lives… they want the information we hold. You see, Lord Oden once traveled with the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, and saw the final island—Laugh Tale."

The mention of Roger’s name sent a shiver through me, and I whispered, "Roger..." feeling the significance of it all. Law’s grip on me loosened as he absorbed the weight of the story.

"Momo’s dad used to be on Roger’s crew?" Luffy asked, wide-eyed, as the rest of us tried to process the revelation.

“That’s a big deal! Why didn’t you tell us this stuff?!” Luffy exclaimed, his usual carefree demeanor replaced by shock. Momo, still in tears, nodded, confirming the gravity of everything we’d just learned.

"So you’re saying Kaidou was using Doflamingo and Caesar to try and learn the world’s secrets or something?" Zoro asked as he sat on the ground, processing everything.

"Yes, that is correct," Kin’emon replied, his voice filled with regret. "We all failed to protect our lord, as samurai," he added, his head hung low. "His final message before his departure was, ‘Do it for me, open Wano’s borders.’" Kin’emon, Cat Viper, Dogstorm, Kanjuro, and Raizo all spoke the words in unison, their loyalty to Oden clear.

"But why?" Chopper asked innocently, his voice soft with concern.

"Wano’s borders have been closed for generations. No one is allowed to leave or enter the country," Brook explained, his somber tone matching the seriousness of the conversation. "But if they open the borders, it will allow them to interact with other countries."

Nami glanced at Momo, who was still crying, and instinctively moved to comfort him, but Luffy gently stopped her, a serious look on his face. "Still, we all must win. That’s why, in search of allies, we turned our attention to the sea. Our original destination was Zou," Kin’emon explained.

"The minks and the Kozuki clan are sworn allies," Dogstorm added, his voice filled with pride and determination.

"But we underestimated the enemy," Cat Viper and Dogstorm said in unison, both of them clearly frustrated by the events that had transpired.

"Hey, they played a dirty trick on you. Don’t beat yourselves up," Franky said, trying to lift their spirits.

"Yeah! How would you have known they were going to use that poison gas?" Usopp added, still angry about the underhanded tactics.

Both Cat Viper and Dogstorm looked ready for another round, their warrior spirits clearly unbroken. Kin’emon then made the bold request to Luffy and Law: to help them slay the Shogun of Wano and strike down Kaidou.

"I’m all about this alliance—the minks, the samurai, and ninjas!" Usopp shouted, suddenly excited at the idea.

"Will you assist us, Sir Luffy?" Kin’emon asked, his voice full of hope.

"I refuse," Luffy said without hesitation, shocking all of us.

"What?!" we all gasped in disbelief.

"It’s a no," Luffy repeated, standing firm as everyone started begging him to reconsider.

"Hold up, I think Luffy actually has a point here," Nami said, her back turned to us.

"Nami?" I whispered, confused at her change in tone.

"After all, we should negotiate," Nami added, her eyes gleaming with Berri signs.

"Nami..." I shook my head in disbelief, knowing exactly where her mind was at.

Luffy, however, had his sights set on Momo. "What are you, a figurehead? Huh, Momo?! You’re in charge, right? Say something already! You’re just going to cry?!"

Nami slapped Luffy, trying to get him to ease up, but Luffy continued to push Momo. "Come on, Momo! You want to be the leader, don’t you?!"

Brook chimed in, "Now, now, Luffy. You’re expecting too much from him. He’s just a child. Heirs don’t usually take the throne until they come of age."

Momo, still in tears, walked slowly toward Luffy. "Luffy... Luffy, I... I want to vanquish Emperor Kaidou. He’s the enemy of both my parents and the cause of their untimely deaths. I want nothing more than to grow up and be strong, so that one day, I might smite him... I want to protect my loyal servants as well. That’s why I must ask—will you please help? Please, Luffy... I beg of you..." Momo's voice was filled with determination and sorrow.

Luffy caught Momo’s face in his hand and smiled. "That’s more like it," he said, his tone finally softening. "Hey, Momo, let’s team up. Just leave Kaidou to me, and you’ve got an alliance," Luffy said, extending his hand.

Momo gripped Luffy’s hand tightly, tears streaming down his face as he thanked him. The sight of it made all of us smile. It was a moment of unity.

Law, who had been standing beside me, finally stepped away and approached Luffy, his usual calm broken by annoyance. "Hey, Strawhat, you should’ve run this by me first," Law said, irritation clear in his voice.

"It’s cool, right?" Luffy replied nonchalantly.

"It is, but still..." Law grumbled, his frustration evident.

"Then it’s settled," I said, breaking the tension as I walked over and sat down next to Zoro. Luffy laughed as Law glanced at me and blushed.

"Okay! Let’s gather around! Come on, everyone, are we all ready?!" Luffy shouted enthusiastically, raising his fist. "We’re going to kick Emperor Kaidou’s ass together!"

"The Ninja-Mink-Pirate Alliance!" Luffy declared as we all cheered in unison, pumped up for the coming battle.

"Do we really need the 'Ninja' part?" Nami asked, exasperated.

"Of course, we do!" Zoro, Franky, and Usopp barked back in unison, unwilling to let go of the idea.

"The target’s Kaidou, so Cat Viper, Dogstorm, Momo, Kin’emon, Kanjuro, Ninja guy, and Traffy—we've got a solid team. I don’t know much about Kaidou, but with an alliance like this, he’s toast!" Luffy said enthusiastically. "By the way, don’t ever bow your head to me again, or kneel. Us being in an alliance means we’re best friends too!" he added, grinning wide.

"We are not!" Law retorted, visibly annoyed.

"But if we’re working together, there’s one condition..." Luffy started, his expression growing serious. "Before we go anywhere, my crew is down a man."

"Gotcha, this is about Sanji," said Cat Viper, already putting the pieces together.

"What happened?" asked Dogstorm, his concern evident.

"I’m afraid that... is a long story," Nami sighed, the weight of recent events clearly heavy on her. "And on top of that, one of my crewmates is being forced into an arranged marriage with the Vinsmokes."

My jaw clenched as Luffy mentioned it, my frustration bubbling beneath the surface.

"I see..." Dogstorm said gravely.

"How unfortunate, I did not know the reason for Sir Sanji’s absence, nor Lady Y/N's predicament." said Kinemon his expression somber

"Both Y/N and I are going to run off and rescue Sanji. We’re going to stop this arranged marriage of hers, so hold off on fighting until we get back," Luffy declared, his voice filled with determination.

"That’s your only condition? Then we shall gladly stand by," Raizo said, understanding the seriousness of the situation.

"Thank you," Luffy and I said in unison, sharing a brief, determined glance.

"And trust me, Sanji is as strong as a thousand people! When we bring him back, it’ll be worth it," Luffy added confidently.

"Then I’m worth two thousand people," Zoro said confidently, arms crossed as he glanced around at the crew.

Nami, with a smirk, reached over and patted his head. "Of course you are," she said in a teasing tone, knowing exactly how to stoke the rivalry between him and Sanji.

Before I could add my own comment, I suddenly felt strong arms wrap around my waist from behind, pulling me back into Zoro’s firm grip. His face rested near my neck, his voice low and teasing. "Right, princess?"

I smiled, leaning back into him with a chuckle. "Of course, Zoro. We’re partners, after all," I teased back, feeling the heat of his breath against my skin.

"I see, he'd be quite the asset; however, take precautions—this is Big Mom," Dogstorm cautioned.

"We're not planning on fighting her. Besides, we'll take Lion Viper," Luffy countered with a grin.

"Who is that?" Dogstorm asked, his brow furrowing as Cat Viper chuckled at the nickname Luffy had given Pekoms.

Minutes passed as we made our way down from the secret location. "In the meantime, I'd like to get in touch with a certain someone. It never hurts to add more manpower at our disposal," Cat Viper said thoughtfully.

"Who is it?" Luffy asked, curiosity shining in his eyes.

"He's the former commander of Whitebeard’s first division—Marco the Phoenix."

"Marco!" both Nami and I exclaimed in unison, while Luffy struggled to recall who he was.

"For real?!" Usopp added, incredulity evident on his face. Luffy scratched his head, still puzzled.

"He looks like a pineapple," Robin chimed in, and a look of recognition washed over Luffy.

"Oh yeah! He’s strong!" Luffy exclaimed, finally putting the pieces together.

Cat Viper explained how the remnants of Whitebeard's crew had fought against Blackbeard's crew, some of whom had since disappeared. "He fought with Blackbeard’s crew?" I asked, a mix of concern and curiosity in my voice.

"It was a massive confrontation; both sides brought reinforcements last year," Robin elaborated.

"Marco, in the end, was defeated. Afterward, Blackbeard received his recognition as one of the Four Emperors," she added.

"I see. I had no idea... Blackbeard! That bastard!" Luffy shouted, his fists clenched in anger.

"I do remember one thing, though. After I blacked out, Jinbe told me that some of Whitebeard’s crew stepped in to fight," Luffy recalled, his expression thoughtful. "I want to see him again and say thanks."

Cat Viper nodded. "I need to organize everything and get my ducks in a row so the plan can go into motion."

"Alright, should we divide into groups?" Luffy suggested.

"I’ll head to Wano," Kinemon stated, and we all voiced our concerns about Kaidou still being in charge, as well as how the shogun wanted them dead.

"If you travel in our submarine, you’d be pretty safe, wouldn’t you?" Law offered.

"Brilliant, Sir Law! You don’t mind harboring us on your vessel?" Kinemon asked, a hopeful glint in his eyes.

"It’s fine," Law replied in his usual stoic manner, glancing at me. I shot him a soft smile, causing a slight blush to creep onto his cheeks.

"But you will need to seek cover. I can’t help you there," Law stated, his voice firm.

"That’s fine. Then I’ll look for Marco myself," Cat Viper said resolutely.

"We’ll meet at Wano and prepare for war, agreed?" Dogstorm confirmed.

"Okay then, it’s a plan!" Luffy said, excitement bubbling over.

"Well, see ya! You better not get lost," Zoro chimed in, crossing his arms with a smirk.

"Look who’s talking!" both Nami and I replied in unison, exchanging amused glances.

Suddenly, the minks rushed in, suggesting we should have a banquet to celebrate everything that had happened. Raizo was well, and both Cat Viper and Dogstorm were no longer fighting. The Kozuki clan was reunited once more.

As we made our way back to town, Luffy started cheering about food, but Nami quickly interrupted him. "Wait a minute, Luffy! What’s your priority right now? Stuffing your face or helping out your two crewmates?" she scolded.

"She’s sorta right, you know. As much as I want to celebrate, we’ve got to figure this one out," I added, gripping the hilt of my sword.

"So, Nami, you’re coming too?" Luffy asked, squished between the minks.

"Of course! I feel partially responsible for this whole mess, after all. Besides, how are you guys going to get there without a New World navigator?" Nami replied confidently.

"She’s got a point there," I said, scratching the back of my head, feeling a blush creeping up.

"Luffy, me too! Pekoms is severely injured; he needs a doctor," Chopper piped up, eager to join.

"And I..." Brook began, strumming his guitar strings, "for who will soothe your souls when the world gets you down... also, who will play your wedding march, Y/N!"

"Brook, for the last time! I’m not getting married!" I barked, exasperated and throwing my hands up in defeat.

"Well, Sanji might have something to say about that!" Usopp teased, a grin spreading across his face as he glanced at Zoro. "I mean, if he were here, he would totally take you away from Zoro!"

Zoro shot Usopp a fierce glare, frustration evident as he crossed his arms tighter. "I doubt that," he muttered, though a hint of protectiveness crept into his voice.

Law’s jaw tightened at the mention of Sanji, an annoyed look crossing his face. He seemed torn between concern for me and irritation at the situation. "You all just keep forgetting that this is serious," he said, trying to keep the mood focused.

Zoro stepped forward, determination etched on his face. "I’m coming too," he said firmly.

"No, you’re not, Zoro. I need to do this one on my own," I insisted, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"She’s right. If they have any more people, the whole plan is in jeopardy. Just grab Sanji, end the arranged marriage, and haul ass out of there," Franky added, his tone serious.

"But..." Zoro hesitated, clearly conflicted.

"Don’t worry, Zo. I’ll be fine. Besides, I’ve got to ask Sanji what he meant in that letter he wrote to me," I told him, trying to reassure him.

"Sanji is just going to hurt you..." he whispered, his voice low, just loud enough for me to hear.

"Why would you say that?" I questioned, genuinely puzzled.

"I just... I just know it!" he replied, frustration lacing his tone.

"Zoro, this is Sanji we’re talking about. I mean, it’s not like he’s going to do something that will completely and utterly destroy me," I reasoned.

"Don't worry about it, Zoro," I said, trying to lighten the mood, but I could see the tension in his posture.

"Just don’t get yourself hurt," Law interjected, his tone surprisingly gentle as he looked at me. I could sense the jealousy simmering beneath the surface in his gaze.

I smiled, touched by the gesture. "Of course! Besides, I'm carrying you with me," I said, holding out the necklace Law had given me.

Law blushed, a smirk playing on his lips as he stepped closer. "You’ll have to make sure to take good care of it," he said, his voice playful yet serious.

Zoro noticed our interaction, his jaw tightening slightly

As I turned back to Zoro, I noticed the determined look in his eyes, but it was accompanied by something deeper—something that suggested he was grappling with more than just the current situation.

Suddenly, he reached up, pulling off his signature black bandana. "Here," he said, his voice low as he approached me. He tied it gently around my head, making sure it fit snugly. "I'm giving this to you so that you know I'm always there with you, even when I'm not," he whispered, his eyes searching mine.

Before I could respond, he pulled me into a warm hug. His embrace was firm, yet there was a vulnerability in it that made my heart race. "You better come back to me," he added softly, his voice barely above a murmur, filled with unspoken worry.

Usopp, witnessing the intimate moment, raised his eyebrows in shock. "Whoa, did Zoro just go soft?" he exclaimed, a teasing grin spreading across his face.

Law shot a glare in Usopp’s direction, clearly feeling jealous and crossing his arms tighter. "Seriously, it’s not the time for jokes, Usopp," he said, annoyance evident in his tone.

Zoro stepped back, his expression hardening again, masking the angst that had briefly surface

"Stay safe out there, you guys," Usopp called out, his voice filled with concern as Nami, Chopper, Brook, Luffy, and I nodded in agreement.

"Of course!" Luffy replied, his usual enthusiasm shining through.

"Oh, Luffy... can you bring me a Poneglyph rubbing, pretty please?" Robin asked with a hopeful smile.

"Sure thing!" Luffy grinned, already imagining the adventure ahead.

"Good, so are we good now? Can we eat?" Luffy asked, rubbing his stomach.

"For real, I’m starving!" I laughed, feeling the familiar warmth of camaraderie among us.

Suddenly, Zoro’s hand went to the hilt of his sword, his expression shifting to one of concern. "Something wrong?" I whispered, sensing the tension in the air.

Cat Viper’s tail began to frizz up, and I noticed all the minks were growing restless. "What the hell?" Cat Viper exclaimed, his eyes darting around.

Before we could process what was happening, the ground began to tip over, and the minks started rolling. I struggled to hold on to the floor but kept slipping. Luffy held Nami and Brook close as they too were pulled by the sudden movement.

"Damn it!" I shouted, trying to regain my balance, but it was futile. The ground shifted again, and I lost my grip, rolling the other way. "Ahhh!" I screamed, panic rising as I tried to catch hold of anything.

"Y/N!" Luffy shouted, stretching his arm out just in time to grab me.

"Thanks, Luffy!" I said, relief flooding through me. "What’s happening?"

"Zou is shaking!" Wanda replied, her eyes wide with fear.

We shook again, and Luffy’s grip on me began to slip. "Luffy!" I yelled as Nami also lost her balance.

The shaking suddenly halted, but Luffy clutched his head, his expression troubled. "Luffy, what’s wrong?" I asked, my worry deepening.

"Can’t you hear?!" he exclaimed, eyes wide with concern.

"No, what’s happening?" Nami pressed, looking around frantically.

"Back away from the buildings! Everyone, let’s huddle together!" Wanda commanded, her voice steady despite the chaos.

"Does anyone know what’s going on here?!" Law shouted, his calm demeanor belying the urgency of the situation.

"Jack has returned!" Momo yelled, spotting a vision in the distance.

"It can't be!" Wanda gasped, fear etched on her face.

"I thought he was dead?" I said, grabbing my sword from its holster, ready to press one of the three gemstones adorned on its hilt. But then, I felt a different power surging through me. "What is this..." I thought, confused but intrigued.

"There are about five ships attacking his leg!" Momo shouted, both he and Luffy experiencing another voice together.

"You can hear Zou?" Nami asked, surprised.

"The elephant is asking for orders to go into battle!" Momo explained urgently.

"Luffy, urge Momo to tell the elephant to give the order, or else we all will drown and die!" I said, adrenaline pumping through me.

"Hurry up, Momo! Just do it!" Luffy pressed, his voice rising above the panic.

Momo quickly relayed the order, and the elephant began to shake again. I placed my sword back in its sheath behind me, gripping the floor once more as the tremors continued.

"It’s calm again," Franky announced, relief evident in his tone. "I can’t hear the loud voices anymore."

"Everyone! You won’t believe what I just saw!" the monkey shouted excitedly.

"So Zunesha used her own trunk for self-defense," Dogstorm explained, his eyes wide with realization.

"Hey, why the long faces?" Luffy exclaimed, trying to lighten the mood. "Well, alright, good luck with that then. Anyway, we are about to take off now! Can we get some food before we go?" he asked, his hunger taking precedence once more.

I couldn’t help but laugh at his unwavering focus on food despite the chaos. "That’s Luffy for you!" I thought, feeling a mixture of anxiety and determination wash over me. We were about to confront Big Mom, save Sanji, and put an end to my forced marriage.

more than words

50 words; 50 sentences

ao3

#01 - Motion

A spinning kick, a swing of blade — the two meet and hit but don’t hurt, and Nami sighs exasperatedly at such a pathetic display of a mating dance.

#02 - Cool

Zoro stands his ground as his enemy — finally, finally — falls unceremoniously on his back, unconscious, and Sanji thinks for a moment that the sight of Zoro — wild and victorious and ready to take on the world — looks kind of, maybe, slightly cool.

#03 - Young

Brook sees the two — dying to die for each other, the weight of their friends’ lives pulling down their shoulders — and he thinks too many people forget how young they still are.

#04 - Last

The Cook is the last person Zoro would consider lending a hand in a fight — “who would want to work together with that dumbass anyway,” he lies whenever anyone asks, and doesn’t admit that it’s because he trusts Sanji’s ability to stand his ground, wholly and fully.

#05 - Wrong

Sanji knows Zoro, like him, understands better than most — that this nakama thing isn’t just something you’d die for, but something you’d kill for, too.

#06 - Gentle

Sanji manages to catch Kitetsu before it rolls off from the deck during a storm, and in that moment, Zoro knows, from the reverent way he regards the swords in his hands, that this isn’t the first time the Cook has wielded one.

#07 - One

“Calm down, Marimo,” Sanji says with a dismissive wave of his hand when Zoro asks about the sword a few days later, “I’m not about to take your place as the ship’s swordsman; a cook doesn’t use his hands to fight, and I had a terrible teacher anyways.”

#08 - Thousand

“I’m worth two thousand men,” Zoro grumpily says, almost sulking, and Nami can’t resist patting his head like she would to a little boy pulling the pigtail of a girl he has a crush on.

#09 - King

You’re like the prince of Dumbass Kingdom, Zoro says, and it takes Sanji everything in him not to blurt out, Dumbass Kingdom sounds about right; wait ‘till you see the fucking king.

#10 - Learn

Watching Sanji converse fluently with a couple of tourists in a Northern language, Zoro wonders when he will ever stop learning something new about Sanji — or if he ever will, at all.

#11 - Blur

When Zoro finally comes to, the wounds from Bartholomeow Kuma is muted by Chopper’s medicine, a dull throb at the back of his consciousness; but the sharp pain against his heart feels raw still, visceral and razor-sharp, tucked alongside the ache of Sanji’s sacrifice.

#12 - Wait

“Wait,” he manages to croak out before Sanji flees the room, the word spilling out unbidden; he isn’t quite sure why, but he knows that he wants the Cook to stay.

#13 - Change

“Have some fucking decency ,” Sanji yells, throwing a shirt at Zoro’s direction; the brute has been walking around the ship bare-chested like an eyesore ever since they entered the summer island, and Sanji is just trying to do everyone a favor — and definitely not because there’s a different kind of heat pooling at the pit of his stomach.

#14 - Command

Robin watches the two in amusement — Zoro could have easily refused to be Sanji’s pack mule, and she can hear him grumbling about it still; and yet, here they are, once again, together at the island’s marketplace.

#15 - Hold

Sanji is rough around the edges, bristling at the slightest touch; Zoro knows he needs to be gentle, but he doesn’t quite remember the last time he held something that isn’t a hilt of a sword, without meaning to hurt . It’s a learning curve.

#16 - Need

Sanji knows Zoro is a dumbass, but it takes a special kind of stupid to think he would never be good enough for Sanji, when he’s all that Sanji has ever needed.

#17 - Vision

Zoro never regrets losing his eye, but he wishes, sometimes, he could still take in the sight of Sanji with an unimpaired vision, just to see more of him.

#18 - Attention

“You’re starting a fight, Marimo?” Sanji growls, voice low and dangerous, and Zoro thinks, yes, yes, anything to get you to look at me.

#19 - Soul

He loves the kid like a brother, but sometimes Zoro hates how Luffy can easily see past his gruff words and feigned ignorance; the way Luffy only needs to take one look at him to guess, “you’re worried about Sanji, aren’t you?”

#20 - Picture

He carries around everyone’s bounty posters, Sanji tells himself, and tries not to think too hard about how the only one he kept in his breast pocket is Zoro’s, folded neatly against his heart.

#21 - Fool

“This is the dumbest thing you’ve ever done so far,” Sanji says when they part, lips still tingling from their earlier kiss, because Zoro’s love is fierce and consuming and Sanji knows, ever since he was just a kid with the iron mask, that he doesn’t deserve any of this.

#22 - Mad

“Don’t you ever say that kind of shit again,” Zoro snarls, slamming the wall beside Sanji’s head, his voice trembling with a kind of anger Sanji has never seen him with before — frustrated, desperate. “You’re important to me, Cook.”

#23 - Child

Grow up and cast your dreams away, Sanji tells himself every day, the voice ringing in his ears; you stopped being a child deserving of a dream the moment you chained Zeff down to the ground.

#24 - Now

Grow up and cast your dreams away, Sanji wants to tell himself, but the voice stutters, drowned out by the sight of the kid bleeding on the deck of Baratie — he’s a swordsman, too, acknowledged by none other than Dracule Mihawk himself — but a kid still, throwing himself headfirst towards the case of his dreams, steps unweighted by regrets.

#25 - Shadow

Zoro doesn’t know which is worse — Sanji, forever running away from the shadow his brothers cast; or Zoro, chasing after someone who is no longer around to leave behind a shadow anymore.

#26 - Goodbye

After Whole Cake Island, there’s a period of time where Zoro would follow Sanji around the ship like a lost puppy, unwilling to let the Cook out of his sight; Usopp definitely didn’t expect Zoro to have such a cute side, and crouches over his new invention to hide his smile.

#27 - Hide

“We’re not doing that here,” Sanji hisses, and forces himself not to laugh at the pout on Zoro’s face; the galley might be secluded enough, but they’re still on the enemy ship’s galley.

#28 - Fortune

It is annoying, the way Sanji keeps reminding Zoro that he could have collected Mihawk’s bounty and lived the rest of his life in wealth; especially when Zoro would trade any riches in the world just to stay by the Cook’s side.

#29 - Safe

It catches Zoro off guard when Sanji starts talking about his mother; it’s a short anecdote, a single happy memory, but Zoro can tell by the way Sanji tells it — guarded and hesitant, like he wants to keep the words close and safe — that he has never shared it with anyone else before.

#30 - Ghost

Usopp starts shaking like a leaf as soon as they enter the abandoned, dilapidated house, and Sanji gently tells him, sometimes the worst ghost is the one you create yourself; Zoro feels the weight of Wado on his hip, and agrees.

#31 - Book

“I don’t need this,” Zoro grumbles with a blush, pushing the book back into Nami’s hands, trying hard to ignore Nami’s laughter and the words ROMANCE FOR DUMMIES emblazoned on the book’s jacket.

#32 - Eye

Shusui sinks into the man’s stomach, all the way to the hilt, and Zoro thinks of the way Sanji curled into himself as the man landed a lucky hit on the cook’s hand. An eye for an eye.

#33 - Never

“This is my first time,” Zoro whispers, head ducking away as he feels his face flush at the admission; but Sanji’s hand rests on his cheek, encouraging, and he can feel the curve of Sanji’s smile as their lips meet and Sanji replies, “it’s mine, too.”

#34 - Sing

Luffy cheers when Zoro and Sanji comes into view, and he lets them take on the next batch of enemies; a good fight is always fun, but watching Zoro and Sanji fight is even more so — like watching a dance that only those two know the melody to.

#35 - Sudden

“What, are we supposed to be surprised?” Nami says, barely looking up from the map she’s working on; Sanji sputters, face redder than the tomatoes he served during breakfast, and Nami feels almost bad for him.

#36 - Stop

“But we — Zoro and I — how did you know?” Sanji asks, and promptly stops asking questions when he realizes the rest of the crew aren’t surprised either; who could blame them, when his and Zoro’s sexual tension can be seen from a mile away.

#37 - Time

Sanji knows they have to break apart soon, just to breathe, but right now all he cares about is to taste as much of Zoro as possible — he has waited two years for this, and it has been two years too long.

#38 - Wash

They have their fair share of fighting — and how, considering the amount of repairs Usopp has to do for Merry just from their petty fights alone — but what the crew doesn’t know is that they also have this thing, this quiet thing, just him and the Cook and a stack of dirty plates between them.

#39 - Torn

“In retrospect,” Robin observes, “dressing up our dear cook in a maid uniform would not only lower the enemy’s firepower, but also ours, considering how distracted our swordsman has clearly become.”

#40 - History

“Why do you keep him around, mister?” The kid asks, pointing at the old swordsman with three swords and an eye scar by the peer; Sanji laughs, pats the kid on the head, and says, almost wistfully — “you can say we have some history.”

#41 - Power

Sanji tugs at Zoro’s sleeve, and Zoro follows suit despite his complaints — Sanji thinks, distantly, how much of an honor it is, to have so much control over such a powerful man.

#42 - Bother

“I didn’t have enough time to make this three-tier ice cream cake for our lovely Nami-san and Robin-chan because you distracted me!” Sanji says with a hard jab of a finger against Zoro’s chest, and Zoro thinks, good .

#43 - God

Zoro does not believe in gods, but there’s a hymn of a noise when Zoro presses his lips against the crook of Sanji’s neck, the hallelujah of the world breaking apart as their bodies move together, and he thinks, close enough .

#44 - Wall

Zoro slams his fist into the wall of Polar Tang, and is taken aback by the depth of his own frustration; he knows Luffy and the others will get Sanji back from Big Mom’s place, but it unsettles him still, the way Sanji hides himself under layers of pretenses when Zoro has bared so much of himself to the Cook in return.

#45 - Naked

“What the fuck was that for , Mosshead?!” Sanji shrieks, justifiably furious, leg raised and on fire after Zoro sliced his tray into two without preamble; Zoro can’t exactly tell the Cook he did it because he was too surprised at the sight of Sanji in a swimming trunk and nothing else.

#46 - Drive

Why Zoro , people sometimes ask, but the answer is easy to Sanji — nobody drives him crazy the way Zoro does, and is that not what true love feels like?

#47 - Harm

Zoro knows Sanji will be furious ; but as he faces Kuma, knowing at least the Cook is out of harm’s way, he knows he would do this a hundred times over, a thousand times over, a million times over.

#48 - Precious

Sanji is sitting by the corner of the infirmary, face pale with red-rimmed eyes, and Zoro thinks he’s never had that, before — people who would weep for him, knowing that he is more than dried scars and calloused skin.

#49 - Hunger

This thing we have is dangerous, Sanji tells him, but Zoro doesn’t care — he already has a craving, the same way he needs a booze when it’s been too long, except he thinks that this vice will surely kill him.

#50 - Believe

This isn’t faith; this is the truth, Zoro’s truth, the same way he knows he will become the Greatest — Sanji will find that elusive sea of his, and Zoro will stay with him until it is the last thing he can do.

FAQ

Does this One Piece zine have a theme?

Mother Sea is a brand new fanzine dedicated to the incredible backstories and flashbacks in One Piece, honouring our favourite characters and how they got to be where they are.

Who can participate?

Artists and writers are accepted into this zine, and you can apply as both! Applicants under 18 are also welcome to contribute to this project.

How many contributors are you accepting?

Depending on the applications, 30-40 contributors will be accepted, with ideally at least 10 writers.

Are collaborations allowed?

Yes, they are! This is a friendly zine we organised in order to create more One Piece content, so this is highly encouraged! Of course if you’d rather remain independent you’re more than welcome to do so.

Are there requirements for this zine?

As long as Oda’s work is respected, this is the occasion for you to recreate your favourite moments and/or develop headcanons based on canonical facts (i.e.: Usopp teaching Carrot, Onion and Pepper how to draw).

NSFW is allowed since most of the One Piece characters went through quite a tragic childhood (i.e.: Trafalgar Law in Flevance) and for explicitely canon ships (i.e.: Gol D. Roger & Portgas D. Rouge) although no romantic/sexual relationships with underage characters will be accepted.

Do we get to choose which character to work on?

Absolutely, although we will still ask you for a top 5 of your favourite characters in order of preference in order to avoid a repetition of the same character’s backstory. Multiple artists/writers may be permitted to work on the same character, as long as the content remains distinct enough.

A few details about the application process:

Artists:

Three finished artworks alongside a link to your porfolio (a shared folder on Drive would be the best, but it can also be a tag on your Tumblr or your Instagram/Twitter page) will be required.

What we will need to see: - A full-body character - A fanart of One Piece character(s)

All of your art must be at least 300 dpi when you submit your applications.

Writers:

One to three fanfictions, as well as your portfolio (AO3, fanfiction.net, shared link on Google Doc, Tumblr tag, standalone website...) will be required. Your work for this zine will be limited to 5k words.

For charity, profit or free?

To stimulate a bit more the One Piece fandom and discover new creators, this zine will be free for everyone, and thus, only digital.

Any other question left unanswered?

Feel free to send us an ask or send us an email to [email protected]!

May I ask for a headcanon for sanji s/o being luffy older sister by a year. Can I have how the crew especially how sanji and luffy would react to finding out luffy's sister us dating sanji. Sorry my English isn't the best. Great blog

Don’t worry about your english we’re on the same boat 😂. I Don’t know what’s your first language but just in case I’ll post it on spanish too. Thank you🧡

Luffy’s older sister (1 year difference) dating Sanji

Sanji was dating this girl a while ago, it was a secret first but everybody noticed his changes.

No more NAMI-SWAAAN, no more nosebleeding, he was still very charismatic and all but that pervert side was gone.

One day after talking with his SO, because of course if they knew about this they’ll want to know her so he was basically advertising her, he decided to tell them.

The crew and his SO were the most important people on his life right now, so it was time.

So now they were arriving an island where they are going to meet. Everybody was excited.

Zoro teased him obviously. Luffy, Chopper, Nami and Franky were very excited to meet her.

They entered the bar were his SO it’s supposed to be but he couldn’t find her.

And then Luffy stretch his arms to hug a girl sitting on a table.

Surprise! that was Sanji’s SO.

After a few punches and yelling by Sanji his SO laughs and explains Luffy is her younger brother, and also introduces herself as Sanji’s lover.

Everybody shocked, like.. how many brothers and sisters do you have?! But immediately they greet (name) happily.

Robin and Franky will be very happy to see Sanji with a partner, very proud parents.

30-40% chances on Franky crying.

Zoro will tease him like always, things like: so now you can just leave uh?. But he’s happy too.

Luffy is the happiest guy on earth right know, honestly. One of his best friends and his sister? that was so cool!

Brook… Well, you already know what he’s going to ask right?👙 And of course Sanji was fast at answer 🤸🏼‍♂️

Nami, Chopper and Usopp will treat her like a sister immeaditely. 🧡❤️ 💛.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3[a] is an actionvideo game, developed by Omega Force and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita and Microsoft Windows. The game is the sequel to One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2, released in Japan on March 26, 2015[1] and subsequently in Western territories on August 25, 2015.[2][3] This is the last One Piece video game released for PlayStation 3. An enhanced port for the Nintendo Switch was released in December 2017.[4] It is the third installment in Pirate Warriors video-game series.

A sequel, One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4, is scheduled to be released in 2020.

Gameplay[edit]

Gameplay screenshot from the game

The gameplay is similar to the first two installments. A new feature is the Kizuna Rush, which summons another character alongside the player in battle to perform a combination attack. Up to four players can be summoned at once this way, with the finishing attacks becoming more powerful as more characters join.

During battle, one of the NPC support characters (known as Crew in the game) may become a Hero, which causes the Kizuna Gauge of the support character who is a hero to fill up more easily. Maxing out this support character's Kizuna Level and filling their Kizuna Gauge, will unleash their Hero Power. Each character (Playable & Support) have their own Hero Powers which produce different effects, such as causing a barrage (such as Fujitora causing a barrage of meteors, Sakazuki unleashing a barrage magma, or Garp throwing a barrage of Cannonballs) that deals out damage to every enemy on a stage, restoring health of allied units (Chopper & Sanji's hero power), reducing the enemy units attack power by intimidating them (Zoro and Luffy's Hero Power), or inspiring allied units increasing their combat effectiveness and attack strength. However tough enemies can also unleash their Hero Power which causes a stunned Gauge to appear over their head and when the gauge reaches 0 the enemy will be stunned causing their Hero Power to end.

Some characters like Luffy, Usopp, and Sanji can use a special state called an Overdrive which allow them to use their signature power-up states like Gear Second, Sogeking or Diable Jambe respectively when Kizuna Rush is activated. However these Overdrives are not automatically available and require specific Coins to unlock them. Also for most of the Logia users in the game, their Logia state acts as their Overdrive and unlike characters Luffy, Usopp, and Sanji these Overdrives do not need to be unlocked using Coins.

The main story mode, 'Legend Log' mode features special cutscenes called 'Treasure Events' which can be triggered under certain conditions (e.g. using a certain character, completing specific tasks, defeating a specific enemy, etc.).

In addition to the main story mode, there is also a 'Dream Log' mode, in which characters and items are revealed and unlocked as the player progresses through the mode's semi-randomized battles. After the Final Island in Dream Log is completed a second harder version called 'Nightmare Log' is unlocked.

The game features a 'Legend Diary' that functions as an overall progress indicator. Achieving S-Ranks on levels, defeating bosses with Special Kizuna Attacks and fulfilling other miscellaneous objectives gradually fills out the grid and rewards the player with coins that can be used to upgrade each character's stats, to unlock their second special attack, or unlock their overdrives (if they have one). The game also features 'Skill Posters' for each character that allow the player to unlock various equipable skills by fulfilling certain conditions. All playable characters have a 50 Level Limit and in order to level up a character to Level 100 (the game's maximum level) one must obtain a set of Rare Coins (each character has their own set of coins required) to break their Level Limit.

Characters[edit]

The game features a total of 37 playable characters, which consist of all 27 from previous games and an additional 10 new ones. A number of NPCs also appear as enemies.

Development[edit]

In December 2014, it was announced that One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 would be released in Japan on March 26, 2015. Later that same month it was announced that the game would be coming to western territories at some point in 2015 with a Summer release scheduled for North America. Release dates were later announced to be at the end of August 2015 for both North America and the EU. Chris Gilbert, the senior vice president of sales and marketing at Bandai Namco Games America, said that 'The worldwide popularity of One Piece continues to grow due to the franchise's fantastic action, storytelling, and character development. One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3's magical blend of hijinks and humor with Dynasty Warriors' frenetic gameplay style has produced a truly satisfying experience that One Piece fans will surely look forward to enjoying in the summer of 2015″.[5]

(PSVita) 76/100[8]Review scorePublicationScoreFamitsu36/40[9]

Review aggregatorMetacritic, which gives games a weighted average score based on published critical reviews, gave the game's PlayStation 4 version a score of 74,[6] indicating 'mixed or average reviews', whereas the PlayStation Vita version received a score of 76, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'. Gaming Age said for the PlayStation Vita version, 'It's not often that a game will embrace its own ludicrousness and just be totally and completely ridiculous, but One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 does just that',[10] and described the PlayStation 4 version as 'A sprawling beat 'em up with great replayability and loads of content for both fans and newcomers.'[11] However, the PC port's reviews were more mixed, with a weighted average score of 62 on Metacritic. Hardcore Gamer gave a positive review, describing the game as 'very playable' but criticised it for being 'weak in technical terms', and one negative review came from Russian gaming website Riot Pixels, which criticised the graphics and porting issues, and stated that 'It all boils down to this: One Piece is just not a fun beat-'em-up game'.[12]

Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu gave the game a positive rating of 36 out of 40.[9]IGN awarded the game a score of 6.9 out of 10, saying 'Pirate Warriors 3 combines musou combat with One Piece's spirit intact, but it's bogged down by cutscenes.'[13]Richard Eisenbeis of Kotaku gave the game a mixed review, praising the combat but criticizing the lack of innovation, describing it as 'an incredibly run-of-the-mill Dynasty Warriors.'[14]

As of February 2, 2016, One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 have sold 1 million units across different platforms.[15]

The Nintendo Switch version of One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 sold 16,011 copies within its first week on sale in Japan. [16]
