CHAPTER 12: DOG

       At the tavern.

"LISTEN UP CREW! WE'VE STOLEN TONS OF BOOTY, AND OUR NAME BRINGS TERROR TO ALL WHO HEAR IT!" Buggy encourages his crew. "SO ARE WE GONNA LET FOUR LITTLE LOSERS MAKE FOOLS OF US!?"

"No sir!"

"I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!"

"NO SIR!!!"

"All right, pipe down!" He walks around the stiff pirates. "It's time to show our enemies just how terrifying we can be! Bring out the "Wild Animal Show"!!" Buggy opens his arms smirking widely at his crew.

"Captain Buggy... You called?" A man on top of a giant lion appears, passing in between the crew, making them go back.

"OOOOH! IT'S MOHJI!"

"IT'S TIME FOR MOHJI'S WILD ANIMAL SHOW!!"

BUGGY'S FIRST

        MATE

   MOHJI THE

  LION TAMER

     A tall man, black eyes, white hair and beard connected, making it look like a one piece., a crop top made out of white fur showing off his abs, a yellow cloth around his waist and blue pants. Him sitting cross-legged on top of his giant lion with purple long mane.

"May I take Roronoa Zoro's head?" Mohji asks Buggy. "Take any part you want!"

"We should be far enough from that tavern, they probably won't catch up to us too soon..." Zoro says while grunting in between words, dragging the cage and with Keiko pushing it from behind to go faster.

"Well... Do you have a plan?" Keiko asks clearly struggling.

"I can't do anything stuck inside this thing!" Luffy speaks, still trying to bite off the bars.

"We gotta do something about the cage first..." Zoro tells them.

"Ok! Well... Maybe we could try to throw it from somewhere and hope it breaks?" Keiko lets out a cry. "I don't have many ideas... I seriously think we should-" She stops pushing as she doesn't feel a certain someone dragging.

"It's no use..." Zoro falls to the floor. "Lost too much blood... Got to... Rest..." He sighs.

     Keiko runs to him. "Hey! Common stay with me, you can't fall asleep, not like this! I told you to sit on top of it while I-" Both Zoro and Keiko stop as they find a white dog looking at them in front of them.

"A DOG!" Keiko shouts. "What's with you, dog?" Zoro asks him, weirded out. "Dog? Hey, a dog!" Luffy says once he realizes there's a dog.

     The dog stays there watching him curiously with his tongue out and then after a minute of silence he walks towards one of the buildings porch and turns back to them.

"What?-" Zoro looks at the dog confused, squinting his eyes at him.

"He wants us to follow him! Are you only good at swords?" Keiko then grabs Zoro and makes him stand to take him inside of the building.

"Stop- I can do it myself!" Zoro protests. "Shut up! You're too weak right now! You need to lay down, I'll move Luffy!" And so Keiko shuts Zoro up, sitting him near the door for the shade.

     As she goes back for Luffy he looks at her with a weird expression.

"What?" Keiko asks bluntly as she starts to drag him in. "You're talking more..." Luffy whispers her as a fact.
