-CRUSADE-

☆//21

Nami was growing more concerned as the already flimsy relationship between Sanji and [name] deteriorated with each passing day. 'Enough is enough, I'm getting to the bottom of this!'
As the young navigator got ready for the day she thought about how she'd get answer's from [name], deciding that she would corner her and force the truth out of her if she had too. Determined, she stormed out of the women's quarters ready to help her crewmates put whatever it was that happened behind them.

However, this plan is ruined. As she stepped out onto the main deck, the boisterous captain was nowhere to be found.
"Where's Luffy?", glancing around the boat in hopes to spot him.

"He went exploring with Brooke and Robin!"

Her gaze flicks over to the starboard railing where she spots the crew's doctor smiling at her. [name] stood silently beside him, gazing blankly at the water. After sailing all throughout the night the crew had decided to take a break and enjoy the rare sunny weather of the Grand Line.

With an exasperated sigh, Nami slowly made her way towards the open deck where Usopp and the others sat around a den den mushi. Suddenly the small creature raised with life as Luffy's laughter spilled from his lips. Apparently he was having a grand Ole time while the ship's sub was being chased by an unknown monster. The crew were listening intently to what was happening with the expedition team, when Sanji came twirling out of the kitchen with refreshments in hand.

—————-ｷﾘﾄﾘｾﾝ—————-

As the crew (minus [name]) was happily munching on their desserts,

"Woah! That thing's huge! Shishishishi look at how big it's mouth is haha!", the captain's joyous laughter rung out in the air. After bringing chased around by the supposed Sea King, the expedition crew decided to return to the ship as the sub could not handle diving any deeper.

The den den mushi promptly halted its transmission and the line went dead. [name], who still stood by her lonesome watched as the water's surface rippled and bubbled as the shark-like sub resurfaced. As the trio exited the machine, she was suddenly on edge.  It was as though ice was suddenly running through her veins and before anyone could react, [name] lept over the railing of the ship, weapon drawn.

Just then the rabbit-like sea king that had chased luffy and the others underwater, reared its ugly head. Using soru, [name] swiftly are her way to the beast and with one deadly strike of her bat, she sent it back to the depths from which it came. As she softlybland vack on the deck, the crew looked on in awe of her swift abilities. Only Luffy had seen some of the young woman's power during his fight with Lucci  and even he was impressed.

"Woah! [name] that was so cool!", the captain exclaimed loudly, while running up to her. His arms wrapped around her tightly as he continued to rave about her.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH"

The crew silently looked up at the sudden noise coming towards them. "What's that..."

THUD!
