Chapter 9
Next day
Zoro sat at the sick bay quietly. He hasn’t move from that spot since yesterday he was save. Chopper approach Zoro wondering Zoro want to get out. “Zoro um-m do you want to go on the deck to get some fresh air,” Chopper asked cutely. Zoro nodded and tried to get up and stand then suddenly fell Chopper help him up but fell again. “Maybe we should change you first your clothes are way too big.” Chopper went and get some clothes. He sent Sanji to help him change since Luffy accidentally caught Usopp hair on fire he had to help a bit there.
“Oi Marimo here is you clothes,” Sanji place it next to him. Zoro didn’t move. “What are you waiting for, change already?” Sanji said annoyed. “Are you sure Master you always said i don’t need clothes,” Zoro said looking at Sanji. Sanji just stared. [That sick bastard doesn’t even let Zoro wear clothes most of the time] “Are you angry, Master, I’m sorry, I-should have just kept quiet right,” Zoro said looking down. “What are you talking about, i’m not that sick bastard that makes you wear his clothes. What does he do to you anyway don’t he clean you up,” Sanji said disgusted of the man had made Zoro like this. “Master always make me take baths with him and if its changing time he will change me, he say’s I can’t change myself because I'm just a toy, and toys don’t change themselves,” Zoro said staring at nothing. “Zoro you are free now do what ever,” Sanji said then lifting Zoro shirt to help him change. Zoro had pants on that time because chopper had put some on for him.
Sanji say his body was all bandage up. He also saw how skinny he was. The clothes he had on was too baggy so he went asking Usopp to borrow a shirt. He then came back with a plain white shirt and put it on him. “Do you want some food,” Sanji asked. “n-no,” Zoro said. “Are you sure you lost lots of weight,” Sanji said then left Zoro sitting there alone and Sanji went to make him some soup.
Zoro sat there again alone. Then came Franky came to check on Zoro. “Zoro-bro how do you feel,” Franky said walking closer. “Chopper said your legs are still weak so i’m here to help you to go on the deck,” Franky picked him up bridal style and walk out of the sick bay and put Zoro on the deck. “Here you go Zoro-bro,” He said then left. Nami then came and sat next to him.
“Zoro how are you,” She said. No response, he sat there. “Are ignoring me,” She said looking at him with he annoyed face. “No Ma’am,” Zoro said. Nami felt weird that he said that. “Don’t call me that it sounds like i’m old,” She said offended. “Sorry miss,” He said then pulling his legs to his chest. “Are you ok,” Nami said. Zoro then said, “Aren't you going to say I’m a loser,” Zoro said trembling. “Why would i say that,” Nami was confuse. “I though all women calls me a loser and a slut,” Zoro said then hid his face. “What! Why do they even say that? Anyway I will never say anything like that” Nami said then she pat Zoro and left.
Luffy then came. “Zoro we need a talk,” Luffy said seriously. Zoro sat there quietly and listen to Luffy. “Zoro what happen why did you leave us,” Luffy said. “I-I don’t know I remember I had to do something so I left, Master,” Zoro said to Luffy. “ZORO you can’t always sacrifice your self for me,” he said loudly the rest of the crew looks at Luffy wondering what is going on.
“I-I’m sorry,” Zoro said he was confuse what he had to do. “I feel like a terrible captain, causing you feel so much pain,” Luffy said then he pull Zoro to eye to eye contact. “I’m Sorry, D-don’t kill them,” Zoro said. Luffy drop Zoro onto the ground. “What do you mean don’t kill them?” Luffy said confuse. “WHAT DO YOU MEAN DON’T KILL THEM, WHY DO YOU LIKE GETTING RAPE?” Luffy said angrily. “No I don’t,” Zoro said his mind was dizzy he was about to pass out. “WHAT THEN?” Luffy yelled. “I-I’m sorry don’t kill, my friends, don’t kill my captain,” Zoro then started crying. Luffy was confuse why he didn’t want him to kill the black beards. “What don’t you want me to kill the black beards,” Luffy said. “NO! I don’t want me crew mates to die, I miss them, I miss Luffy,” Zoro was so confuse that he didn’t even knew where or who he was talking. “Zoro,” Luffy started feeling guilty scaring Zoro like that.
Nami and Robin ran to Zoro. “Sh… Calm down,” They tried calming him down. Nami turn her face to face Luffy. “Have you forgot he is confuse,” Luffy then stepped back. “I’m not Black beard, I’m your captain, I’m LUFFY AND I WILL ME THE KING OF THE PIRATE,” Luffy said pointing to himself. Zoro suddenly stopped crying. “L-Lu-Luffy,” Zoro smiled for a second then suddenly stop. “You’re lying,” Zoro said. “I am,” Luffy said angrily. “Stop messy with my mind, you treat me like crap then you try to make me happy, I-I don’t know what to do I’m scared,” Zoro said then started tearing up again. “I want to see, Luffy, Chopper, Usopp, Franky, Nami, Robin, Brook and even Sanji, I miss them,” Zoro said then passing out on the ground.
“H-he, don’t know where he is,” Nami said. “He can’t even tell it’s us anymore,” Robin said. “He does care about us even he was treated like that,” Usopp said. “He still think he is still in that ship,” Brook said sadly. “I must be very confuse to be think you're still in that ship and treated like that and to think some random crew mate say who he love to him like that and he think he is someone else,” Usopp said confuse even by his own word.
“Luffy get him back to the sick bay please,” Chopper said. Luffy quietly picked Zoro up knowing he has cause Zoro more pain but it was unintentionally. Zoro cling to Luffy shirt. He kept say, “I’m sorry.” Luffy put Zoro on the sick bay and looked at him with his worried face. “I’m Sorry Zoro,” Luffy said then left the room.
