One Piece: A Tale Of Two

chapter 11

CHAPTER 11: FLIGHT

     Buggy's body falls, echoing through the place. Zoro walks a little more and then turning to watch Buggy's dead body.

"Hmph! That was almost disappointing..." Zoro's muffled voice said.

"Hey Zoro! Get me outta here!" Luffy calls him. "I couldn't get him out, lend us your swords, swordsy!" Keiko says extending her arm signaling him to go near, on the other hand he gets triggered.

"Why you-" Zoro growls. Nami still not being able to move while watching those monsters that call themselves pirates.

"We can't open this without a key, these bars are too thick for me to cut through." Zoro tells them as he checks the cage. "Oh..." Luffy silently says. All of a sudden the pirates erupt in laughs.

"Very funny, now hand over the keys to his cage before I get cranky." Zoro tells them.

"Those guys are kinda creepy!" Luffy says looking at them. "You don't have to tell me-" Keiko says. Immediately after Keiko finishes that sentence Zoro groans before falling to the ground in pain, a hand with a knife on it, piercing through his back.

"ZORO!?" Luffy yells in fright. "WHAT THE-!? THAT HAND-!" Nami lets out.

"A HAND!?" Keiko says almost running towards it but stops to see what she can do.

"WHAT'S GOING ON!?" Zoro cries falling on his knees and the hand floats back facing Zoro acting as an opponent.

"THE HAND... IS FLOATIN!" Zoro faces the hand giving Buggy's body his back.

"The Chop-Chop Fruit!!!" Buggy speaks his body resurrecting and going back to its place, acting like a body once again. "That's the Devil Fruit that I ate!! You can slice and dice me, but you can't kill me!!! I'm a Chop-Chop man!" He says now fully standing in front of Zoro with all his parts together.

"His body is back together again! I though the stories about the Devil Fruit were just myths!!" Nami says shocked.

"He's like a real devil!! What is that Fruit!?" Keiko whispers.

"Chop-Chop man!? That guy's a FREAK!!" The Gum-Gum man says.

"Roronoa Zoro! You never had a chance! Looks like I missed your vitals... But you still took a serious wound!" Buggy tells him, laughing obnoxiously at him.

"FINISH HIM! FINISH HIM!" The pirates chant.

     Zoro stays there trying to think of a plan but not knowing what to do, holding his cut which the bleeding continues by the second and so, Keiko finally steps front, walking to Zoro taking her t-shirt off, and putting it around his wait to help his wound, he flinches back. Her only having her black sports bra on.

"What are you doing!?" Zoro whispers at her, yelping at the contact of the shirt with his wound.

"FINISH HIM! FINISH HIM!"

"Shut up, you have a bad wound and Luffy's in a cage we can't either break nor slash, so what we're going to do-" Keiko gets cut off.

"STABBING SOMEONE IN THE BACK, THAT'S FIGHTING DIRTY!! YOU GOT THAT, BIG NOSE!??" Luffy screams at Buggy, making Buggy pissed off and the pirates fall in shock.

Keiko hisses. "OK! Change of plans!"

"YOU FOOL! That's the one thing you never-" Nami tries to scold him.

"YOU DARE TO CALL ME "BIG NOSE"!?" Buggy launches his hand to Luffy, going at an incredible speed with a knife on it, going through the bars landing on him.
