Sh.e.l.ls Town…153 Marine base...
Punishment Ground…
While Zoro is drowning in the sorrows of his past where his rival beat him and left to join the Marine with a smug face telling him to find her and defeat her before thinking about becoming the world"s strongest swordsman as she is going to become the world"s strongest swordsman he heard an annoying tone.
"Luffy are you sure he is the one? " Even after recognizing Reo asked with a smile looking at Zoro who looks like a dried-out corpse after not eating in 22 days and staying under the hot sun thinking "Though he has the same hair color he does not looks much or the author just made him look better because from my eyes he might die any moment with this dehydrated body of his. "
"Yes, he is. " Luffy replied with a serious face.
After hearing Luffy voice Zoro looks up as he recognized him from before when he helped him eat the rice cake and asked with a lazy tone though Reo felt he is just too weak to speak properly "You again. Don"t you have things to do? "
"I will untie but only if you promise to join my crew. " Luffy replied with a calm and expressionless tone as if he is asking the right thing.
"You"re what? " Zoro asked with a confused face thinking he might have heard something wrong.
"I ran a pirate crew and looking for people can join up. " Luffy replied with a calm tone with an expressionless face.
"No way I will never stoop it up with joining as a criminal, screw that business. " Zoro said with a sarcastic smile while averting his gaze from Luffy.
"What"s wrong with being a pirate? " Luffy asked with a confused face hearing Zoro"s weirdly averting his eyes.
"They are despicable like I never want to join up with one. " Zoro answered back with a serious face.
"Oh, come on give me a break everyone already knows you as some vicious bounty hunter always out for blood. " Luffy asked with a smile trying to convince Zoro in joining his Crew.
"People can say whatever they want to say about me but I"ve never done a single thing in my life that I regret. " Zoro said with a serious face and continued with determination "I will make it through this challenge and after that, I will accomplish what I want. "
"Yeah~ that"s great. " after hearing Zoro"s determined tone Luffy said with a nod and turned around then said "but I have already decided that you"re going to be on my crew. "
"WHAT!!! You can"t do that. " hearing his unreasonable words Zoro shouted back with anger.
"I heard you"re one of the best swordsmen around? " Luffy asked with a smile turning his head towards Zoro.
"Well I am but that idiot captain"s son took mine away. " Zoro shouted angrily thinking about his swords.
"Guss I will just have to get it back for you and so if you want your sword. You just have to sore to join my crew. "Luffy said with an innocent smile like he is doing the proper thing.
Hearing his unreasonable reason Zoro shouted "Now you are really p.i.s.sing me off. "
"Yeah, Luffy that sounds like blackmail to me. " Reo who was hearing said with a nod without knowing if he should laugh or cry hearing this unreasonable words from Luffy.
Luffy who has made up his mind without thinking properly started running towards the Marine building while laughing like a fool
"Wait, Who are you? " finally understanding someone is still beside him Zoro asked with a curious face.
"I am just a writer who is appointed to write his adventure. " Reo said with a smile while taking off his sungla.s.s with a casual tone as if this is just an insignificant matter to him.
"So you are one of his crew members? " At first Zoro got surprised looking at his face as he has a perfect face which can make any man angry at him including Zoro but after receiving his humble att.i.tude he didn"t feel bad and asked with a curious face, not understanding why would a flower boy like him join a pirate crew but thinking if it"s just a writer it should not be a big deal
"Yes, I am afraid that I am. " Reo replied with a wet smile.
"Then aren"t you going to stop him as he is gonna bust in there alone beside the base is in the other direction. " Zoro asked with a weird face looking at Luffy who is still running in the wrong direction.
"Oh, thank you for reminding me. " Reo said with a humble smile and shouted looking at Luffy who is still running "LUFFY~ the base in the other direction "
Hearing his shout Luffy stopped and turned with a surprise and searching his hands he shouted Gum-Gumm Rocket" and while pa.s.sing by Reo and Zoro he said with a smile "THANK YOU, Reo. " and went flying.
Looking at Luffy stretching his arms like that Zoro asked with a shocked face "Wait what the h.e.l.l is this guy? "
"He is a rubber man. " Reo said with a smile looking at Zoro"s shocked expression and almost popping out eyes.
"A rubber what now? " Zoro asked with a confused face as this is the first time for him hearing something like a rubber man.
"A rubber man. " Reo said with a smile and started explaining "You see in the grand line there are fruits called the Devil fruits and eating them.… "
After hearing Reo"s examination Zoro nodded and asked "So he ate the Gum-Gum fruit and became a rubber man? "
"Yes, that is how it is I think. " Reo nodded with a smile then asked with a curious face "Now can you explain how your sword looks, so I can also go inside to such for your sword. "
"Well you see I don"t use one sword but 3 and they must be together in the room of that stupid Captain"s son"s. " Zoro replied with a serious face while showing anger remembering about Helmepoo.
"Alright you wait here for a while and I will return back with your swords as soon as I can? " Reo said with a smile while walking towards the front entrance of the building on which Luffy just went.
"Hey, are you going to enter from the front gate? " Zoro shouted looking at Reo"s back who is walking towards the front gate so carefreely.
