----ZORO'S POV-------"We're ready!" Nami cheered as we were done boarding the supplies on the advanced merry. Well just to put it plainly merry was the merry with metal wings on either of its sides.
I was getting worried,Luffy had not returned yet, I know he will make it, he promised but I am more worried about Umi. She was not in a very good condition before she was taken away.
We waited for a little before Nami suggested we set sail slowly as we cannot miss the knock up stream. Waiting in anticipation, we looked in the direction of the forest in which Luffy disappeared a few hours ago.
"Come on, Luffy!! What's taking you so long!" Nami mumbled under her breath.
I hope they're alright. I prayed, mentality, anxiety building up in me , Luffy's voice ringed in my ears as I looked in his direction. He was running ,the gold bag on his back and Umi in his arms, still passed out.
He quickly returns the gold to Cricket and climbs up the stairs of merry as we set sail immediately not wanting to miss the knock up stream. He informed us that Umi had been drugged and he doesn't know what the drug is and how it will affect Umi. He also informed us that when he got to Umi and checked her ,he noticed that Umi's temperature had risen and she was shivering, a tension built up amongst us as we looked at Umi, no wonder she was all healed but still unconscious. Hearing this Chopper immediately got to his work. He checked Umi's temperature and hissed at how high her temperature was ,on the commands of Chopper,Luffy laid Umi in the girls bedroom as she slept, we walked out to let her rest and let Chopper look after her.
It's been almost an hour and a sudden pull dis balanced us, near the merry we witnessed a formation of a whirlpool. The Saruyama alliance that had accompanied us till here, mentioned that this is where the knock up stream will form and we nodded trusting them and let the whirlpool take us.
Just as we got to the center of the whirlpool, the currents vanished and Nami explained that the main event is about to occur. While waiting for the knock-up stream, the pirate whom Umi called 'teach' caught up to us and spoke to Luffy about something like - he is there to claim his Beli 100,000,000 head.
Luffy and all of us unaware of the increase, questioned that guy about this, before he raises the poster for us to see as well as my bounty of Beli 60,000,000 along with it there was Umi's bounty too, that was Beli 50,000,000.Usopp confirms that it was a new bounty poster and informed Luffy and Zoro of their amounts, with Nami deducing that the new bounty must be a result of what occurred at Alabasta and about Umi she concluded it would be from that day when we fought the Marines.
I smirked, proud to see my bounty. Luffy and I were happy and satisfied, as we stood by the railing, smirking and grimacing.
" Oi Usopp, is there my bounty too, look properly!" The cook shouted into Usopp's ears. Usopp obeyed zooming into the poster, he shook his head in a disapproving manner saying, there were only bounty posters of Luffy, Umi and mine. My smirk widened as I looked at the cook ,he looked back angrily.
A quick jerk shook the merry and all of us , as Nami declared that the knock up stream was starting , we held tight onto something. I, on the other hand, ran towards the girls room where Umi was and held her tightly,making sure she wouldn't fall. Why did I do that? Why am I worrying about her every now and then? Another jerk got me out of my thoughts as I sat firm, gripping Umi tightly, not too tightly as to not make her uncomfortable. She snuggled and moved until her left side of her face was stuffed into my chest and her hands were on my stomach as she curled up against me like a small ball. Luffy was right, her temperature was not normal,it was higher and she was hot and on top of it she was shivering too. Those bastards! how dare they drug her! I gritted my teeth in anger but then soon calmed down as I heard a whimper escape her mouth.
