The White Flame [One piece x Reader x Oc]

[Chapter 5] Respect Swordsmen

-3rd POV-

Nami and Usopp screamed in unison, clinging to each other in terror. Zoro instinctively positioned himself for battle, his hands resting on the hilts of his swords. Sanji's jaw dropped, his cigarette slipping from his lips, as his eyes sparkled with excitement.

Luffy, oblivious to the tension, tilted his head, curiosity etched on his face. "Hey, old lady! Is that food yours? Mind if I grab some?"

Before anyone could react, Sanji swiftly kicked Luffy to the ground, his eyes locked on F/n. "Mon dieu! You're an angel descended from heaven!" Sanji proclaimed, his voice dripping with dramatic flair.

F/n's eyes widened in shock, Sanji, undeterred, continued his charming act, kneeling before her.

Enraged by Sanji's sudden display, F/n punched him with lightning speed, sending him crashing through several trees. Sanji slammed into the ground, dazed and dreamy.

"Magnifique... an angel... is taking me... to heaven." Sanji mumbled, lost in his romantic fantasy, as the others stared on in amusement.

Zoro rolled his eyes. "Sanji, focus."
Usopp and Nami frantically yelled Sanji's name, their faces etched with worry as they cowered behind a bush, fearful of F/n's escalating rage.

Zoro charged forward, swords drawn, aiming a swift strike at F/n. His blades sliced through the air, seemingly connecting with precision, yet F/n stood unfazed. The crew gasped as a radiant white flame erupted on her back.

"Impossible!" Zoro grunted, stunned.

Luffy watched, awestruck, sparkles dancing in his eyes. "Whoa, old lady, you're incredibly strong!"

F/n's menacing gaze snapped towards Luffy, her teeth clenched. "I'M ONLY 19!" she bellowed.

Unleashing a wave of white flames, F/n sent Luffy scrambling for cover. He dodged the inferno, screaming, before tumbling into the bush with Nami and Usopp.

"Get out of here, Luffy! You'll give away our hiding spot!" Nami hissed.

Usopp chimed in, "Yeah, go find another spot somewhere else!"

Meanwhile, F/n seized the opening to strike Zoro's injured chest. Her blow landed with precision, and Zoro crumpled, grunting in pain. He fell to his knees as his blood began soaking his shirt and bandages. F/n stood tall over the bush, her eyes blazing with intensity. With a swift gesture, she summoned a burst of white flames, engulfing the bush.

Nami, Usopp, and Luffy leapt into the air, their voices rising in unison as they screamed, "AAAAHHH!" their terrified cries echoing through the forest at the same time.

-Minutes later-

The crew was bound together, around a sturdy tree branch, facing F/n's crackling campfire. Zoro, however, lay on the ground, shirtless and secured with ropes, his bloody bandages exposed.

F/n emerged with a steaming pot of soup, her angry eyes fixed on the captives. She sliced the boar meat, adding it to the pot, as Luffy's drooling became unbearable.

"Food... finally!" he exclaimed.

Usopp whispered urgently, "Luffy, don't do anything stupid that would offend her! We don't want to make things worse."

Nami elbowed Luffy, "Be quiet, Luffy!"

F/n fist clenched as she approached with a sizable chunk of meat in hand, and forcefully stuffed it into Luffy's mouth.

"Mmmph! Thank you old lady!" Luffy muffled.

Usopp yelled in Luffy's ear, "You're going to get us killed!"

Nami chimed in, her voice stern, "Luffy, think before you speak! We don't want to die because of you!" Sanji, sporting bruises on his face, gazed longingly at F/n. "My angel, don't forget about me! Feed me too, pleeease?"

F/n silently fed Sanji a scorching piece of meat straight from the campfire. Sanji yelped, "Aaaa...ACK! Hot! Hot!"

F/n stood, tsked, and headed into her home. She returned with a basket of Aloe Vera plants and sat beside Zoro, propping him against a tree.

As she reached for his bloody bandages, Zoro's tied hands instinctively tightened around her wrist. His eyes locked onto hers, flashing a warning.

Undaunted, F/n lifted his bound hands above his head and pinned them to the tree with her cooking knife. Zoro's face contorted in embarrassment.

F/n began removing his bandages, her expression unreadable. "I'm only doing this because I respect swordsmen."

Zoro gritted his teeth. "Like I care."

F/n applied the Aloe Vera gel to his chest wound, and Zoro winced. "Should lessen the pain," she said, smirking at his pained expression.

"Doesn't feel like it..." Zoro groaned.

F/n's curiosity got the better of her. "What happened, anyway?"

Zoro grunted, watching as she tended to his wound. "I fought the greatest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk."

F/n's hands froze, she looked up at him. "Wow, you're stupid."

Zoro's eyebrows twitched in frustration. "Do you have any alcohol?"

F/n hummed, recalling Rayleigh's gift, a box of beer. "You'll need this someday," he'd said with a knowing grin on his face.
F/n wondered, 'Is this what Rayleigh meant?' She returned with bandages and medicinal supplies, along with a wooden box filled with bottled beers.

As she tended to Zoro's wounds, Sanji's jealousy boiled over. "DAMN YOU, MOSS HEAD! BEING TAKEN CARE OF BY AN ANGEL! BE GRATEFUL!"

Zoro ignored Sanji, eyes closed, focusing on alleviating his pain. However, a snicker caught his attention. He opened his eyes to find F/n amusing herself.

"Moss head, huh?" F/n teased.

Zoro frowned. "My name is Roronoa Zoro...not moss head."

F/n chuckled, freeing Zoro from his restraints with her cooking knife. "Well, Roronoa Zoro, you're free to go."

She stood, pointing to a nearby box. "There's a box full of beer in there, so enjoy." Zoro located his swords, leaned against a nearby tree, and securely fastened them to his hip. He carried the box of beer and joined F/n on the log.

Glancing at his anxiously whispering crew, Zoro sweated nervously and turned to F/n. "Uh, you're gonna release them too, right?"

F/n served herself a bowl of soup, her gaze fixed on the bound crew. "Tch... I guess."

With a burst of white flames, F/n incinerated the crew's restraints. They shrieked, fearing the worst, but realized they were unharmed.

Luffy sprang forward, his eyes fixed on the boar meat. "Can I eat the rest?!"

F/n's response was flat. "No."

Luffy pleaded, his voice rising. "Pleaseee?"

F/n remained firm. "No."

Luffy's persistence continued. "Pleassseeee?"

F/n relented, exasperated. "Fine."

Luffy leapt with joy, snatched the boar meat, and devoured it voraciously before settling down on a log. Meanwhile Nami and Usopp sit on the log across from F/n still skeptical of her and Sanji sat next to F/n admiring her features. F/n grunts as she turn to look at Zoro who was enjoying the box of beers and F/n decided to try the drink, Zoro eyed F/n and saw how she tried to open the bottle "Hand it over." And F/n did just that and saw Zoro open the bottle with a simple flick and she frowned. "I could have done that too." She snatched the drink. F/n took a sip, it wasn't bad for her, but she didn't love it. F/n realized she didn't know these people and yet welcomed them without knowing if they were bad. However, they hadn't questioned what she was.

F/n, standing at an impressive 6ft tall, continued drinking, then spoke up, "So, can I get your names?"
