"Hmm~ seems like i can finally get my fun soon~"

Y/n pov

"Who in gods name is that?"
I muttered underneath my breath as i inspected the relatively tall man with a relatively big white beard on his face.
White beard on his face.
Whitebeard on
Whitebeard.
...

Whitebeard.....

I felt a nervous shiver run down my spine, feeling like i would get into unnecessary trouble if i stared at the old man for much longer.
"What a nice day too walk around"
I muttered to myself as i laughed nervously and began to walk away from the area.
'Let's just go and explore some of the desolated groves'

I quickly strode away from the place and headed to different groves i still hadn't gone to. As i walked around in an empty grove with some run down buildings i was stopped by some people who looked like thief's.
"Guess we got lucky today boys"
The man who i would assume is the leader spoke with a snarky laugh as he looked at his 'crew' which was only made up of 6 guys with rusty weapons.

"Such a shame a real beauty like her will have to be sold...maybe we can have our fun before we sell her"
The man continued to say as he looked at me with a look i could only say disgusted me as a woman.
"For your own safety, don't try to resist~"
At this point the group of men's faces had already gotten on my nerve, especially the nerve of the leader to get closer with a snarky smirk as he began to reach out to grab me with his stinky grubby hands.

"Dont you dare touch me with your stinky smelly hands. Have you never heard of a bathe?"
I remarked as i looked at the man with a sneer as i pulled out a hand fan from my side and slapped his hand with it.
"Ohh~ feisty too~, and here i thought we were lucky to find an obedient mute. That pretty mouth of yours is gonna get you in a lot of trouble sweetie~"
The man remarked as he launched his arm to grab mine in another attempt, before the man himself was suddenly thrown off onto an abandoned building.

"Hey hey, now that isnt a nice way to treat a lady. You guys need to learn some respect yoi"
As i turned to look to my left i saw a tall man, he had blonde hair, and from its style his face looked relatively similar to a pineapple. The little group of bandits soon yelled in rage as they began to rush towards the man.
"Its okay, i got this yoi"

The man spoke to me with a smile as he gently nudged me away, as he touched me his smile turned into a small confused frown before he turned to look at the bandits and began to fight them off.
'What? Do i smell?'
I thought as i also took out two men that tried to grab me from behind. After a min or two all the bandits were on the ground. And the more i looked at the man the more he looked familiar, like i had seen him somewhere before.

"Thank you for your help"
I spoke as i turned to the man with a small smile, his face still showing an curios look before it vanished.
"Its no problem at all yoi. But may i ask for your name?"
He asked his gentle smile returning as he stood infront of me.

"My name is (y/n), nice to meet you"
I said with a small smile
'I must be confusing him with someone else'
I thought to myself
"Nice to meet you too (y/n), my name is marco. Would you like me to escort you to a different grove? Yoi"
He asked as he raised an arm to motion to a grove a small distance away with more people.
"No you dont have to, ill be alright you've already helped me enough"

I said with a small shake of my head as i felt like i would impose to much on him.
"Its no trouble, and it'll make me feel at ease yoi."
He continued to have a small kind smile as he kept a small distance as he looked at me. I was hesitant, his familiarity and the urge that I had seen him somewhere making me feel a bit uneasy, but after he had helped me i would feel bad for saying no so i agreed.

"Well, if it isnt much trouble, thank you"
I said with a small smile of my own as i began to walk towards the grove he had pointed at.
"Its no problem at all, but may i ask what a lady like you is doing here alone? Yoi"
He asked as he walked next to me while keeping a small distance so i wouldnt feel uncomfortable.

'Ive got an uneasy feeling about this'
I thought to myself
"I was just walking and exploring as i rest for my next journey, i didnt know it was dangerous in this part."
I said as i felt a bit awkward walking next to marco, having a gut feeling that he wanted to say something.
"Yeah its usually like that, especially if your traveling alone yoi."
He added as we continued to walk for a couple of minutes without another word.

"By the way, this might be a weird questions yoi. But by any chance do you happen to be a pirate? Yoi"
Marco spoke up, his question making me furrow my eyebrows a bit. I knew i didnt look like a pirate so him assuming made me confused.
"No, not yet why?"
I asked a bit confused, before stopping as i realized what i said, as i didn't know if marco was a marine undercover. But before i could correct myslef Marco looked at me, nodding and smiling again.

"No reason, hey if its alright with you (y/n) can i introduce you to someone? Yoi"
