The marines had a trump card over their newest Warlord, Trafalgar Law - thirteen years beforehand, an incident occurred to one Commander, causing the man to be frozen in stasis. When newly Appointed Fleet Admiral Sakazuki learns of the Commander's connection to the Warlord, he is willing to use any means necessary to properly secure a leash on the man's neck. Even if that means threatening the Commander's life. *Disclaimer: Not mine, I do not own One Piece.

*NEW AND IMPROVED VERSION* Sanji dragged his legs up, clumsily pushing to his feet. His shoes had been removed, and each ankle had a sea-stone shackle secured snugly against his pale flesh. The two manacles connected by a length of chain that was only two feet long, certainly not enough slack to get a good kick with. One top of that, the chain connected between the restraints was also bolted to the wall he'd been leaning against, his wrists tethered to each other with a thick set of cuffs. His lip twitched up into a sneer at the thought of an enemy being so close to his precious hands.

Zoro and Sanji escape from being interrogated by a group of Marines for four weeks and are recovering from the trauma and injuries. Sanji thinks he only cares a little more about Zoro then, but that changes when the swordsman suddenly falls ill and Sanji realizes just how much he needs him. -No Smut- (One Piece does not belong to me. This story and all of its wonderful characters belong to the one and only Oda-Senpai)

Zoro hasn't been himself, it's very noticeable. But Sanji seems to be the only one who wants to know why he's been acting so off.

Zoro and Sanji run into some trouble shortly after they leave Fish-man island. The Thousand Sunny feels light years away as the unlikely duo have to escape the grasps of a rival pirate crew. However, it's hardships like these bring people closer than ever

When Luffy blurts out to the Marines and Trafalger Law that Sanji is from the North Blue, Law quickly learns that his suspicions about the Straw Hat's cook was far from wrong. Desperate to keep the Heart Pirate's Captain quite, Sanji will consider going to extreme laugths, even alowing himself to be blackmailed. (Disclaimer! Cover art is not mine!)
