One Piece (Love Story) [Part Two]

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Seven [Rewritten]

-Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty-Seven-

"Yeah, he said throw the sails!" Luffy repeated.

"You sure about this, Franky?" Zoro asked. "Doesn't seem very smart to me" he frowned, not seeing how throwing the sails would help us any in getting away from the Marines.

"I got this, don't ask questions—just do it!" Franky huffed. "Stop being an idiot and have some faith in your own ship" he grinned, causing Chopper, Usopp, and Luffy to cheer.

"Usopp...just a second ago you were crying and now you're—nope, never mind, whatever" Nami sweat dropped.

"You just remembered who you were talking to, didn't you?" I teasingly chuckled.

"Yeah" she nodded.

"Why don't you shut up and help me!" Zoro snapped at the three who were cheering.

"Would you hurry it up? We can all agree that Zoro's stupid, but right now we got cannonballs flying at us" Sanji huffed as he kicked away another incoming cannonball.

"What does Zoro's stupidity have to do with any of this?" I tilted my head, smiling at the small "oi" the swordsman shouted at the two of us.

"Alright, Franky—I don't get it, but I furled all the sails, now do whatever you're going to do before the Navy blows us up" Zoro said once he was finished.

"There's something you're forgetting—don't you know we can't leave until we give the ship a name?" Franky asked as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"A name? At a time like this?" Sanji frowned.

"Of course! This is our main voyage, so there's no point if we don't do it!" Franky grinned.

"Well, I guess" the blond shrugged, kicking another cannonball away. "Whatever it is, it's got to have the word lion in it, right?" he asked.

"Wait! I got it!" Luffy brightened. "I just thought of the perfect name—The Black Bear Polar Bear Lion Tiger!" he smiled.

"Well...at least he didn't forget the lion part" I sweat dropped. "But still...that's quite the mouthful..."

"That's a horrible name for a ship! No way!" Usopp snapped as he smacked Luffy.

"Then how about The Super Wolf Gorilla Bear?" Luffy suggested.

"Lion's not even in the title at all this time!" I exclaimed.

"Stop naming off animals! Can't you pick one and work from there?!" Usopp snapped as he once again smacked Luffy.

"The Squid Octopus Chimpanzee?" Luffy questioned.

"What happened to the lion?!" Usopp and I asked as the sharpshooter once again hit the rubber man.

"Well, I did have a lion in mind for the design," Franky nodded, "though the guys at Galley-La didn't seem to get that" he softly frowned before telling us the name Iceburg had suggested to him after they had finished building the ship.

"Oh! I like it!" Luffy brightened.

"Me too! It's super cool!" Chopper agreed.

"Certainly rolls off the tongue smoothly" I smiled.

"I was thinking Dandelion Lion Dandy Unbearable Bear, but this is way better!" Luffy grinned.

"Just stop!" Usopp snapped, smacking Luffy once again.

"I kind of wanted Big Boss Lionel, but Thousand Sunny is pretty good too" Zoro admitted.

"I was going to suggest Creature of Darkness" Robin smiled.
