Little to your surprise, you came back to the ship to find that King Cobra had been murdered, with Sabo as the alleged culprit, and Vivi was MIA.
Everyone was up in arms, and ready to turn around and head to Alabasta to help, but Zoro stated that both Vivi and Sabo were on their own adventures, and assured that they could handle themselves.
So, even though it left a bad taste and your mouth, with everyone so on edge, you decided against bringing up what you saw in your vision.

"Z-Zo'... could-could you—?" "Yeah. Hold still."
You turned around, doing your best to halt your shivering as he unsheathed his sword.
'I fuckin' hate the cold.'
With two quick and precise slashes, he freed your wings from the heavy winter coat, allowing you to stretch them out before wrapping them around yourself.
"Th-Thanks," you chattered, gratefully.
While Nami and Jimbei collaborated to try and escape the icy, choppy waters, the rest of you did your best to not get bucked off the ship, while also not freezing to death.
Some doing better than others.
"There's no way you're not cold," you shook your head, taking a seat next to the swordsman, who was lounging under one of Nami's tangerine trees. "It's like fifty below and you don't have a shirt on."
"I'm fine," he shrugged off. "Feeling hot or cold is all in your head."
He peeked at you with his good eye, a small smirk rising to his lips.
"Besides, you've always been easy to freeze."
"Damn right," you scoffed. "All my life, I've lived on summer islands. The cold is not for me."
"It's not that bad. Actually kinda nice when you get used to it."
"You're insane."
"Don't beat yourself up, (y/n)," Sanji assured, turning to the two of you. "He's well insulated 'cause his head's full of moss."
"What's that!" Zoro glared. "You think you're cold, wait 'til I throw you in the ocean!"
"Let's see you try!"
'For Hera's sake...'
"Hey, Nami! Come check this out!" Luffy called from the figurehead.
