Another One (One Piece Fanfiction)

10. Arrived at The Water City

Aruna pov

We first came to a station when Luffy tried to catch up with a giant frog. A young girl came out of the house and yelled at her grandmother as she saw us.

An old lady with her hand holding a bottle of wine introduced herself as Kokoro, and her granddaughter is Chimney with her pet rabbit, Gonbe. After explaining we needed to find a shipwright to repair our ship, she recommended we go to meet a person named Iceberg.

Kokoro also mentioned that the train was a Sea Train, connected several nearby islands, and was called Puffing Tom. The giant frog named Yokozuna will try to challenge its strength by aging the train but it fails every time.

After that, we arrived at the city. It was gorgeous, like a fountain among the sea.

"Hey, are you the pirate?" A voice suddenly called on us.

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Then you can dock your ship at Rocky Cape." So we moved our ship and hid behind the place where the people told us.

Nami decided to go with two groups. One goes to exchange the money and find the shipwright the other restocks the supplies we need. Me and Zoro decided to stay and guard the ship because of my identity and Zoro lost direction.

"Can you buy me a cloak so I can hide myself when I'm outside?" I asked Robin before she left. "Of course, Lunarians-san." She smiled at me and left with the rest. Zoro leaned on the deck and slept while I decided to take the shift and wait for others to return.

Some times later

Aruna POV

'I'm so bored, I'm so jealous they can go everywhere they want unlike me.' I turned around and looked at the sleeping swordsman. 'And Zoro only knows sleeping.' Suddenly a group of bounty hunters appeared at our ship but I was lazy so I woke up Zoro. "Hey, Zoro. Your job."

"Yea I know." And he defeated all of them and went back his sleep. I guess I can take a nap as well.

After a while, a man landed on our ship, I instantly stood my guard against him. "Woah, calm down miss. I'm a shipwright who was sent to check on your ship." The long square nose man said. Then I let him go inside to inspect our ship. He then informed me the keel of the ship was broken, so it was impossible to fix it. I only nodded and the man took his leave.

A moment later, Snaji and Chopper had returned. "Where is Robin?"

"I saw she was following a man wearing a mask. I couldn't find her when they walked into an alley." Sanji answered.

"Awww, so I cannot get my cloak. Too bad." I said sadly. After that, Nani also returned and explained Usopp was beaten by the Franky House.

Third view pov

After Luffy, Zoro, and Chopper also heard the bad news of Usopp. They decided to take the revenge. So the trio plus Sanji went to Franky House (they think Aruna will just kill all of them to death). The group destroyed their house but found out Franky had taken the money and left.

Aruna pov

I watched Usopp's wounds being treated by Chopper, and Luffy, and the group had returned. "Where were you guys going?" I asked them. "Revenge."

"What?! So you guys decided to beat them up without me? Too bad I cannot give them a stab." Then Luffy decided to speak up after Usopp was awake, "I decided to abandon Merry and buy a new ship."

I didn't say anything, I decided to follow the captain's order. But I can see that Usopp disagreed with this, "You're joking right? It is because of me losing the money right?" Luffy confirmed that what he said was true. Usopp was angry and yelled at Luffy, "You trust a stranger that just met today and decided to abandon a friend that was with us from the beginning!"

"I already thought long and it was a hard decision for me also! If you don't like it, you could just leave-.." Before Luffy finished the last part, Sanji kicked him and told him to calm down. "Sorry for what I just said." Usopp decided to leave us.

Before he walked away, he pointed at Luffy and challenged him, "Monkey D.Luffy, we had a duel at tonight 10:00!" I just sighed and said to the group, "Let me just wander around to drive away my cares." Then I opened my wings and flew away.

Back to the group

"Luffy, can you just try to resolve this matter with words?"

"Usopp is not the type to arbitrarily put his life on the line for things he did not strongly believe in. Once he issued the challenge, there was no turning back." Luffy said with determination.

At the same time, "What?! You let the Franky Family escape after you attacked them? If they did not steal the money from Usopp, none of this will happen!" Sanji yelled at Zoro after he mentioned the bounty hunters he defeated earlier.

"Why did you blame me? Aruna was also here when the bounty hunters attacked us."

"You can't let a lady fight!" When the two were about to fight again, Nami shouted at them to calm down and punched them in the head.

When the time comes to 10, Usopp is waiting for Luffy for the duel. "Is Aruna not coming?" When Chopper asked, suddenly a sound of wings flapping was heard above them. The Lunarians was watching them from the sky.
