My One Piece (Book I)

Chapter-43 Zoro and Robin..?

ALABASTA WATERS...

"Luffy..! Let me join your crew.." Robin says with a smile,

"WHAAAAAAT...!" Luffy, Nami, Ussop and Chopper screamed in shock, Sanji dance with hearts in his eyes and Zoro just glare at Robin with a confused look,

Robin have no business with Luffy and she certainly have no point in joining The Straw Hats.. so why she decides to join is what's on everyone's mind.

*Flashback*

After defeating Crocodile,
Luffy fell unconscious because of the poison from Crocodile's hook.
Cobra tried everything he can but he can seduce the poison.
Suddenly Robin throw an antidote for the poison towards Cobra saying it will cure Luffy. Cobra looked at Robin with a confused look while Robin sat there bleeding from her stomach.

"Earlier, you told Crocodile that The Poneglyph only contain the history of Alabasta when we both know it have the location of The Pluton..
Why did you lie..?" Cobra ask with a confused stare,

"So you know, huh..? How cruel..
It makes no difference to me if Crocodile take over Alabasta or die...
I have decided from the start not to give Crocodile The Ancient Weapon." Robin says closing her eyes,

"Then why did you come here..?" Cobra with a confused look,

"I don't really know anymore,
Chasing a dream i suppose...
The Last Remaining Poneglyph that still carries the true history of The Void Century..
For 20 years i searched and this is the only better lead i got..
And i still haven't found it.
All i wanted is to uncover the true history and share it with the world.
I guess this is the end of the road for me, I'm tired of running.
It's finally over." Robin says with a sigh slowly passing out,

The building started collapsing more
While Cobra, Luffy and Robin still remain inside.
The Antidote Robin gave worked on Luffy as he got up and walked towards Robin and picked her up on his left shoulder and Cobra on right hand.

"Okay..! Let's go.." Luffy says with a stubborn tone,

"Hold On..!
I have no desire to live anymore,
Just leave me here.." Robin says with tears,

"Why should i listen to you..?
You're coming with me,
Do whatever you want once we're outta here." Luffy says with the same stubborn look shocking Robin,

*Flashback Ends*

"At that very moment,
I wanted nothing more just fo die..
But you forced me to live.
I have no place for me to go,
So that's your crime..." Robin says sitting on the chair with hand supporting her cheek,

"I see, Welcome..!" Luffy says with his goofy, no clue face.

"LUFFYYYYY..!" Nami and Ussop scream in angey while Sanji dance with happiness,

"Sheshesheshe...
She's not a bad person..." Luffy says with a grin,

Ussop interview Robin or more like investigate about her past and present..
She didn't tell him her entire story but just enough as she's from the family background of Archeologists.
Nami doesn't buy any of Robin's story as she threatened Robin that if she does anything, Nami will kick her out.
But Robin won Nami's heart by giving her some of the jewelry she stole from Crocodile.
