"A fish ? "
"No, it can't be a fish."
"Iris give us a hint, am I on the right track?"
" Yes ! "
"See, I told you! "
After dinner, the pirates decided to organize a guessing game. And for now, nobody could find the word of the young woman. To complicate matters, she spoke with her hands. Little by little, they learned to understand the shapes she made with her hands while in turn, they taught her to read and write. Killer was also upset when he found her one day, drawing on the walls.
"I know ! It's a king sea king! "
Yelled a crested pirate.
" Yes ! That's it ! "
Happy to have found, the man offered himself another glass.
Leaving her turn to someone else, Iris was about to return to sit down, when she felt Droy's gaze fixed on her, he motioned for her to come closer. He was not alone, other men came behind him and placed a large crate at her feet.
" What is that ? "
"The captain didn't want to be noticed too much, however ... You will need this in the new world." "
Droy opened the crate in which there were clothes, cosmetics, jewelry, books and even new pencils. (Killer had confiscated her after forcing her to clean up.)
" It's for me ? "
Tears started to run down the young woman's cheeks.
" It's for me ? "
She repeated to convince herself that it was real.
Droy bent down and took out a small bracelet from the trunk, he was wearing the crew's Jolly Roger. Her first name was engraved on it.
"I think ... It is not enough to be human, to behave like a human, I understand it now ... Some of us have been obnoxious with you, but what I did to you ... I wanted revenge because I thought you were a government thing that killed my family and friends just because it was orders ... I thought you were like them. I'm not asking you to forgive me, the captain said I deserve a punishment and it's up to you to give it to me. "
Droy pulled out a blade and placed it under his throat, handing it to Iris.
"I disobeyed orders and sought to kill one of my comrades. That's all I deserve. "
All eyes were on them. The reptilian approached and looked him straight in the eyes.
"We don't hurt ... Our comrade. "
The young woman took the blade in her hands and planted it in the ground. Then she ran her fingers over the blood flowing over the man's neck and looked at her fingers before making a small cut in her hand.
" What are you doing !? "
"In my culture ... When you want to become a brother in arms, you make a blood pact. You, you share a cup? Well, we take an oath on life. I wouldn't hurt you, you're my nakama now."
She said, holding out her hand to him.
"Nakama? "
Droy looked at her surprised, she had learned this word not so long ago, but she already understood his importance and she considered him a brother? Droy felt he was going to cry, he took Iris's hand which brought her close to him and hugged her. The other pirates began to shout for joy and started to party.
If they weren't already drunk at the start, some men had brought back new barrels of beer while others started making music.
" Do you want to Dance ? "
Iris asked Droy who still couldn't believe he was still alive.
The reptilian dragged him with her and she began to jump on the spot and make incongruous movements with her body which made his companions laugh. Gradually, she forced everyone to dance, the men tried to reproduce her strange dance steps half drunk but all happy to have a new comrade, the pirates began to sing songs at sea, holding on to each other and drawing the attention of a few passers-by to the port.
Heat was still at the large table with his superiors, watching his little protege dance and laugh with everyone until Kid nudged him.
" What are you waiting for ?"
Kid asked, cheeks slightly red from alcohol.
The blue haired pirate finally got up from his seat to join the others, the reptilian was just below the skull at the front of the bridge, she was talking to the doctor who seemed no longer to be afraid of her. Noticing the zombie, the doctor straightened his glasses and smirked before leaving them alone.
"Heat! "
She said, still with her wonderful smile.
" ... Is... "
He was twisting a strand of hair with his hands but he couldn't finish his sentence because the crested pirate that many nicknamed the rooster arrived to offer a dance to Iris.
"Mmm ... did you want to ask me something Heat?"
" No nothing. "
The young woman knew he was upset, he was a shy man so he would never admit it.
"Excuse me my chicken but I promised this dance to someone else !"
Saying that, she ran to Heat and grabbed his arm to pull him with her onto the track. He looked at her with big surprised eyes.
" You do not want me ? "
In response, Heat smiled and placed his hands on the waist of Iris before training her in rhythm with the music, the reptilian could not help laughing when he spun her and lifted her in the air before the catch her. It is as if time has stopped.

" It does not bother you ? "
Killer asked Kid.
"What? "
"They have become close, it is the first time that we have a couple on the boat. "
"As long as it's not a problem, they can do whatever they want. Heat is loyal and the little one ... She's with us now. "
"Yeah ... It's been a long time since I saw him smile. "
"He still has strange tastes, I wonder how he will tell her that in bed, he prefers to be dominated ..."
"Said the one who still dream for fairies ..."
"Oï ! "
A sound like laughter escaped from Killer's throat.
"Apparently there is a lot of trouble near Marineford. "
Continued the blond, plunging a straw into his glass.
"Yes ... The capture of Ace with burning fists, if it is the brother of the straw hat and Whitebeard gets involved, it will become very interesting. "
He said with a macabre smile on his face.
"I suspected as much."
