[~Help Me~] One Piece X Reader Fanfiction

~Chapter 43~

Normal P.O.V

Back to Fish-men island...

Neptune was flat on his back and Usopp and Brook, who were wearing air bubbles,  were trying to convince him to get up. Neptune told the two he is too old to be doing this kind of thing and that his body will not move.

Several guards noticed the king in need of help, and apparently, so does Hody. Hoe arrived just in time and Neptune grabbed a rope around the whale, and Hoe began to carry him out of the palace.

Zoro, in the meantime, was about to be out of breath. Neptune then felt something stop him and was jerked back. Hody had grabbed him by the tail. The guards were surprised to see Hody up and moving around as they thought he was incapacitated. They tried to help but Neptune turned them away, telling the guards to go and find Fukaboshi and his men. The soldiers were reluctant at first, but the Minister of the Right told them to obey the king.

Zoro was out of air, Usopp was raising his hands in surrender, and Brook seemed to have gone limp, and they were captured by the New Fish-Man Pirates.

(Y/n), who was watching everything from behind a pillar was feeling guilty for leaving her friends. 'I didn't abandon them, I'm just sticking with the storyline...' She Thought.

'I'll follow them from afar.'

In the Sea Forest, Shirahoshi was in tears as she thanked Luffy for bringing her there. Chopper decided it was safe for him to take his time to treat Hatchan's wounds. Luffy then saw the Thousand Sunny and Franky. "Oi! Franky!! Over here!" The captain called out to him.

Franky noticed Luffy and was happy to see him safe. "I'm Super~ happy to see you Luffy!" The Robot finally noticed Shirahoshi trying to hide behind a sea tree. "What are you doing Luffy? Why did you brought a pin-up girl with you?" He asked.

"Oh." Luffy blinked. "Franky, this is Scaredy-cat... Scaredy-cat, this is Franky." He said. "Super~ nice meeting you Scaredy-cat!" Franky did his signature pose.

"N-nice meeting you... I'm Shirahoshi... N-not Scaredy-cat F-Franky-san..." The princess mumbled, still hiding behind a sea tree.

"Oh, by the way, Robin-chan came by. She was looking for something and went into the coral forest. " Franky said, attracting Luffy's curiosity. Before he was able to voice his thoughts, a new voice called out for him.

"Luffy!!" The voice was familiar to the strawhat. A powerful presence attracted his attention. Luffy looked up around until his eyes landed on a large, blue fish-man. The one who had fought by his side when he tried Saving his brother 's life.

Ace...

"It's been two years Luffy! I hardly recognized you!"  Jibber smiled at the young man.

Luffy was surprised and happy to see Jinbe, as he thought that he would not get to see his friend since he heard Jinbe was not around. This confused Jinbe, as he thought Luffy came to the forest because of his message.

Shirahoshi was also glad to see Jinbe, who commented that Luffy came with the princess, whom he had not heard from in what felt like forever. It then dawns on Jinbe that Shirahoshi is in the Sea Forest and not in her tower. He was so shocked that his eyes bugged out of his head.

While he was asking why she is in the Sea Forest, Chopper told Franky that he is going to lower Hatchan down from Megalo and he should be ready to grab him. Jinbe's eyes bugged out again at the sight of the injured Hatchan, and asked him how he got his wounds. He then asked him what he is doing on Fish-Man Island since he heard that Hatchan had been captured along with the rest of the Arlong Pirates. Hatchan, still weak from his injuries, asked if Jinbe is the one he is hearing.
