Roronoa Zoro woke up from his long nap only to see his lover sitting on the figurehead along with her brother. Something he could never forget about his lover was the unbelievable beauty. Usually in his era women with red hair and blonde hair were considered the prettiest creatures however there was Belle who seemed to be a reincarnation of Aphrodite herself. In a way he was lucky to have her but it wasn't easy to keep away from unwanted attention and eyes. After all she was the sister of the reckless Luffy. Belle herself was maybe even more reckless than her own brother and was even more ignorant than anyone on board. She had a great number of faults too but Zoro couldn't help but get attracted to her every single day. There were many doubts on his mind of course. He clearly knew that this wasn't a fairy-tail and love at first sight was clearly bullshit. Nami's and Tashigi's were haunting his mind day and night. He simply couldn't bear to risk Belle falling in immense trouble because of him. Belle was extremely strong that he knew but there was no person in the world who wouldn't be overthrown by someone. For the time being he was happy to be with Belle and see himself as her partner. What even pissed Zoro more was Sanji. His pervert eyes, oh how badly Zoro wanted to lock up Belle in some room and keep her just to himself. Soon his thoughts were broken by the angel herself who was standing in front of Zoro and running her hand through his extremely short hair.
"Hey are you asleep, mosshead?" Belle asked rubbing Zoro's head earning an invisible smile form the guy.
"Tch do you really have to call your lover something the love cook calls me?" Zoro groaned stretching his arms annoyed.
"I gave the name before he did so I have the right to do so," Belle huffed gripping Zoro's hair. Zoro had noticed this already but he couldn't stop smiling silently every time Belle gripped his hair. He knew that it was her way of showing her love to him. She wasn't at all good with her words or emotions and since she wasn't used to kissing like he did, she had found another showing her love to Zoro. He was scared that by the time he was twenty he would grow bald due to the countless number of times Belle had gripped his hair for the past week but couldn't help but like it at the same time. It kind of reminded him the way Belle would grip his hair when she would be under him making love. He had to wait another two years for that.
"Yes, yes you are right, woman," Zoro let out a small laugh seeing the evident blush present on pale face. Zoro did kind of notice another trait of Belle that in fact amused him. Her feminine face did have quite childish freckles scattered all over her nose and cheeks giving her auburn look. The only time they were visible was when her skin turned extremely pale. He had to admit she looked even cuter triggering the beast inside of him.
His thoughts were suddenly broken out when a massive rain broke down onto the ship. Nami ran outside wearing her raincoat whilst everyone else stood on standby with Zoro immediately jumping on to the crow nest. The Going Merry knocked against some harsh, rough waves moving on its own speed with no sense of direction. Luffy jumped onto the sail and informed Nami that they were going to get sucked into some wave and obviously none of the crew including the First Lady didn't understand Luffy's gibberish language which was even more harder to hear over the high mass of rain falling on top of them. Belle grabbed onto the helm with Nami clinging onto her hand, both of the women trying to stabilize themselves of the angry sea.
"Everyone, that is the entrance to the Grand Line! The entrance is to the Grand Line is a mountain! It is called the reverse mountain. There are canals throughout the whole mountain and we have to choose some canal so we could climb up that mountain! Everyone spot some canal!" Nami gave her orders and everyone was busy with their goggles and telescopes searching for a spot.
"Oi there is a crack in the mountain there, it must be the canal!" Usopp informed the others.
"We are quite a distance away from it, aren't we?" Nami added.
"If we lead straight we will knock up against the cliff!" Zoro noticed.
"Nami, what are your orders?" Belle, Sanji and Usopp asked at the same time with Belle trying to control the calamity of the waves and the other two controlling the steering pole of the ship.
"Belle direct the ship towards the canal somehow right at that crack there! Usopp, Sanji keep steering at a constant rate!"
Belle used her water powers to try to direct the angry waves towards the destination however not everything looked easy at it seemed like. Belle had a hard time controlling the waves that even a part of her cheek got frozen up just like how it was at Loguetown. From the crow's nest Zoro noticed that Belle's fingers were holding up so much pressure that she was in fact huffing and puffing herself. Her fruit wasn't easy as it seemed to control. Everyone got irk marks as Luffy jumped around from place to place goofing around while giving out orders at the same time but nobody dared to open their mouths knowing that it was just Luffy. Belle suddenly lost the grip of the waves and Luffy and Sanji broke the steering pole into half much to everyone's horror.
"OH GOD IT'S GOING TO CRASH!" Nami screamed jumping right into the crow's nest hiding behind Zoro who didn't even bat an eye knowing that Luffy was going to do something.
Somehow Luffy jumped right in between the cliff and the ship making sure it wouldn't crash and Belle did her duty perfectly by settling the ship right into the water and accelerating the speed. In fact it took a lot of energy of both the siblings however they ended up saving the ship altogether with everyone else who cheered. Zoro and Nami got off the crow nest and Zoro's hair was once again messed by Belle who showed a simple smile making his heart beat nervously.
"WE MADE IT," Luffy's echo was heard throughout the whole ship and soon it was followed by excited praises. Belle was more than glad. They were one step closer to their goal. There was just one thing the Straw Hats didn't know, the terrible thing of the Grand Line. Death, separation, love, heartbreak, lust and war were awaiting the Straw Hat Pirates.
