51 〤 under the sea

After escaping Luffy's clutches, you heard Usopp say, "Hey, guys! There's a ship-like thing coming from behind!" This drew your attention, and you turned around to meet the ship that had been following the crew.

It collided with your ship, causing all of you to stumble. Chopper screamed, "It's a pirate ship!" as you clutched Robin's hips to keep her from falling. "That sounds so familiar..." Nami murmured, and you locked your gaze on the beast that was linked to their ship.

"They're so persistent!"
"What do they want from us?"
"The bubble is gonna pop!"

You overheard their captain say, "You're doing fantastic, Sea Cow!" Nami then took a step forward, but something caught your eye as it flowed down her waist. Back in Skypiea, you wore a black leather jacket.

Before looking up, you gave a small smile at that. "Hey, Momoo!" Nami exclaimed as the Sea Cow turned to face her. "You're Momoo of the Arlington Pirates, aren't you?"

"I'm Nami! I was there at the Arlong Park!"

The Sea Cow blinked twice before sweating profusely as memories from his past flashed through his mind. "We have to fight!" You grabbed your sword as you noticed someone entering the crew's bubble.

"Guys! Are you ready?!"
"Yes!"
"Kill them all! Let's go!"

As their ship began to move away, you let go of your sword and simply stared at him as he laughed evilly. "All right, fire the Gatling gun as a greeting!"

You and the rest of the crew just stared at him, expressionless. "Kill all the Straw Hats and..." There was a long pause before he realized what he'd done. "Huh?" he asked, slowly turning around and making an odd expression.

Franky approached him slowly and grabbed him. As Franky came to a halt, he cried out, "No! Don't throw me out into the water! That's something... you shouldn't do! You have to value people's lives!"

"Says the one who wanted to kill us first..."

"You're being inconsistent!" Franky yelled as he dropped him to the ground. "Weren't you gonna fire a Gatling gun and kill us all!"

"No, that was just... that was just a play on words." Sanji, Zoro looked down at him and said. "Who are you? You must be the captain of the ship."

Before kneeling, he exclaimed, "Oh, Roronoa Zoro! No way! I'm not a captain! I was forced to be a slave for them!" he said as he turned to face your captain, who was still standing beside you with his rubber arm attached to your waist.

"Oh! I'm sick of being on that ship!"

"He's making ridiculous excuses." Usopp mumbled as he sweat dropped to which you nodded your head in agreement. "Oh yeah, this is great! Can I stay on this ship for a little while? Please?"

"Well, he is kind of pathetic..." Muttered Chopper.
"No way! He just made it up!"
"What?! He just made it up?!"

"Hey, where did you find the Sea Cow who was drawing your ship?" Nami asked as she descended from the stairs. "Oh... Here is... mmm... Cutie-San! You're the cat burglar."

"Stop looking at our navigator like that!" Sanji yelled; kicking him in the face while you stared at him like he was a lowly man. "Nami-san! You're safe..." Sanji said as he gave her a thumbs up.

"That's getting to be a pain!" Usopp exclaimed as Sanji's nose bled profusely, making you chuckle. As you, Luffy, and Usopp stare at Sanji's lifeless body, he murmured, "I just caught that sea monster somewhere..."

"Experienced people have those animals pull their ship," the strange man said as you and Usopp ran towards the chef.

"What?! Is that so?" Grinned Luffy.
