One Piece (Love Story) [Part One]

Chapter Ninety Three [Rewritten]

-Chapter Ninety-Three-

"Tell me, what happened? Are you dead? Where are the others?" Nami frantically asked as she started to repeatedly smack the soaking-wet captain around.

"Zoro, Sanji" Usopp said as the two climbed aboard, both holding bags full of their findings from the sunken ship.

"Glad to see you're all alright" I sighed in relief, resting a hand on my chest.

"Set sail, now! We got to get out of here!" Zoro quickly ordered.

"Yeah, that guy was crazy" Sanji panted in agreement.

"I'm so glad you're okay" Usopp smiled as Nami continued to smack Luffy around in the background.

"Nami, I don't think that's going to work" I said, walking over to her.

"It's going to work!" she growled as she continued to try and smack our captain awake.

"You're going to give him brain damage before he ever wakes up" I sweat dropped.

"Now let's get away from this turtle as fast as we can" Usopp said.

"No, it wasn't a turtle—it was a monkey" Zoro corrected, causing me to stop in my attempt to restrain Nami and look back over at the swordsman with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah, a bona-fide sea monkey" Sanji nodded.

"Can't say I'm too surprised he and Luffy got along as well as they did."

"Well, they're both monkeys."

"But when it caught a glimpse of all the stuff we had taken from the ship, he totally flipped out and went on a rampage" Zoro explained.

"I've never seen a primate act like that before" Sanji said.

"What? Like a primate?" I asked.

"Yeah, that's Masira, the King of all Salvagers" Usopp told them. "But never mind him, how did the three of you escape from the giant Sea Turtle?" he asked.

"Yeah, I'm kind of curious about that as well" I said, walking away from Nami—who was still beating up on Luffy's unconscious body—and towards the three. "From how it looked, you all should have been chewed up and swallowed."

"Why do you keep talking about a turtle?" Zoro frowned.

"Hm, that's weird—now he's just floating there like a statue with his mouth gaping open" Usopp remarked. "Oh! I get it, of course, that's how you guys escaped" he realized.

"You guys must have tasted real bad if he didn't want to finish chewing" I hummed upon realizing that the turtle had stopped chewing as well and now sat there with his mouth agape as if he no longer wished to eat what he had found.

"We were in that thing's mouth!" Sanji and Zoro gaped when they finally noticed the turtle.

"Nothing gets past you guys, does it?" Usopp sweat dropped. "That's the turtle that ate the ship you were inside."

"Exactly how could you not know that?" I questioned. "He's massive! Kind of hard to miss that" I said.

"Hey, when did night happen?" Luffy curiously asked upon finally waking up.

"Attention all hands! We're getting out of here now!" Zoro shouted as we finally started to get everything ready to set sail.

"Not so fast!" Masira shouted as he jumped aboard. "Hand over the treasure you stole or I'll tear your ship apart and find all of it anyway!" he demanded.

"Is he right? You guys found some treasure?" Nami brightened.

"We sure did, tons of it!" Luffy grinned as Zoro was already getting into an offensive stance.
