CHAPTER 80 PLANNING
I didn’t realize Nami hadn’t said a word until it was too late. We arrived in Yuba and split off to search for the rebel base there. The others began searching for water after we had a nice long walk and talk. I left out the Kuja Pirates but told them about everything else. I was formerly introduced to Chopper and Vivi. And I felt all special inside because they already knew all about me.
Chopper was a 3 foot tall reindeer. He had brown fur and wore a dark pink hat. He had eaten the Human-Human fruit and had the intelligence of a human.
Vivi was Alabsata’s princess. Tall, long blue hair, perfect skin, she was a beauty. She somehow joined Baroque Works and found out the leaders identity. Then enlisted the Straw Hats because they couldn’t say no.
After introductions we split up. When I walked into a sand covered home I ducked in time to be missed my Nami’s bow staff.
“You idiot!” She spat. Swinging again.
“Nami, what’s wrong?” I asked. Worried she knew something I hadn’t told her yet.
“I thought you were captured!” Nami yelled. “Your bounty raised but we didn’t see anything else on you.”
“I said I’d be fine,” I replied, dodging another swing.
“That doesn’t mean you will be,” the fiery redhead spat. Tears in her eyes. She swung again. I grabbed her hand and pushed her to the wall.
“Don’t lie,” I said. “I know what this is really about. You don’t want to pay up on the bet we made.”
She hesitated then cracked a smile. “What bet?”
“The one where I said I would get here before you,” I said.
“You didn’t get here before us,” she said. “For all I know, you just got here.”
I couldn’t help but chuckle. “Dang. You got me there.” Her eyes sparkled as she looked at me. I moved in for a kiss. She fought a little. Trying to push me off. But I kept moving closer. When my lips touched hers she moaned in my mouth.
I ignored everything else as we kissed. No Robin or Hancock on my mind. Simply Nami as our tongues entwined. My dick pushing into her she dropped the staff and began to pull me into her.
“You’re beautiful even in this,” I said. She was wearing heavy clothes to protect from the sun. Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com in my bikini underneath,” she whispered.
“You tease,” I said. Kissing her again. “I missed you.”
“I missed you,” she said. “We all did.”
“Who cares about those guys? What about you? Anything bad happen?”
“I-I got sick,” she admitted. I frowned. Worried. “The last island. Some kind of flu. Hit me hard. That’s when we found Chopper.”
“You okay now?” I asked. She nodded.
“I just had a lot of fever dreams. You were in them.”
“Sexy fever dreams?”
She giggled but shook her head. “No. Bad ones. I saw you get killed. And it hit me hard. When we got here I expected you to be waiting for us.”
“I’m sorry. I knew Crocodile was a bad guy. I didn’t know where you all would port.”
“I know,” she said. “But you’re here now. I feel a lot better now.”
“Good. Me too. I’ve missed being your body pillow,” I said.
She giggled again. Kissing me. “Good. I could use a good night's sleep.”
We said some more lovey dovey things. I decided to ignore Hancock for now. When I was with Nami she had all my focus. Separating we walked around outside and found the others talking to an old guy.
“Toto, what happened here?” Vivi asked. Tears running down her cheeks as she talked to the old man.
“Sandstorms,” the old man said. I looked around, most everything was covered in sand. Buildings had dunes of it surrounding them. He was the only person around the large town.
“Sandstorms...but-but this was an oasis,” the blue haired princess cried out.
“Yes, it started 3 years ago. Almost daily a sandstorm hits this area. Covering the area and the oasis. No rain for 3 whole years,” the old man mumbled. A shovel in his hand he began to dig the sand at his feet. “When the oasis disappeared, the merchants did as well. When the merchants left, so did the people. The rebellion had to move somewhere else.”
“You all think I was just lazing around here for the past week? Getting massages every day and spending all of Crocodile’s money?” I asked with a smile. That was true. I knew his weakness from the manga. “I’ve done my own investigation on how to beat the Shichibukai.”
“How’s that?” Nami asked, intrigued.
“Crocodile is really a cat,” I said. Luffy perked up. “Just throw some water on him, and he will go running.”
There were stars in Luffy’s eyes. “Is he really a cat?! I thought he was a crocodile! Is he like one of those fish-men you kept talking about?”
I struggled so hard not to burst out laughing. “Did-did you think we were going to fight a crocodile man?” I asked slowly. Tears forming in my eyes.
“Well yeah,” Luffy said.
I slowly turned to the rest of the crew. They had dejected looks as they turned away in shame. “Are you telling me, you sent him here without telling him the bad guy was a real person?”
“We tried!” Nami said quickly. “He wouldn’t listen.”
I covered my face to stop myself from laughing. Joy filling my chest from the simple exchange. I had missed this place, and Luffy.
“I love you, Luffy,” I said. “You are a great captain. You have my undying loyalty. Never change.” Luffy smiled big, giving me a thumbs up. “But no, he isn’t a cat or a crocodile. He is a man. But unlike normal men. If you sprinkle some water on him, he gets weak and runs away.”
Luffy’s big smile slowly faded. “Don’t worry, he has giant crocodiles at his place that you can fight.” His smile came back quickly.
“Alright! Let’s do this!” Luffy said.
“Tomorrow,” I said. Looking up the sun was slowly setting. “It gets cold at night.”
“But it’s the desert,” Luffy said. “It’s supposed to be hot all the time.”
“Not at night,” I said.
“But...its the desert,” he said again.
“I know I am going to regret telling you this,” I said. “You know how in other places they have green grass?” He nodded. “That means there is water. Water holds heat. So when it cools down at night, it doesn’t get super cold because of that heat in the water. Here in the desert there is no water. So when it gets dark it gets cold quickly.”
“But it's the desert,” Luffy said.
I knew I would regret it. “No water. No heat,” I said as simply as I could.
“But water is cold,” Luffy said.
“Oh my god,” I said. “The desert gets cold at night because of magic.”
“Like your ninja magic?” He asked, his eyes wide.
“Exactly,” I said. “I learned a cool new ninja magic. Want to see?” He nodded quickly. With a wave of my hand the pool of water froze. Expelling the heat out of the top of my head as I pulled it from the water.
“Are you telling me,” Nami said, her fist tightening. “That you can make stuff cold, now?” I nodded excitedly. “And we have been sweating since you joined up?”
“I uh forgot?” I asked. She gritted her teeth as Luffy, Usopp and Chopper stepped out onto the ice. I began to pull the heat out of the air around me. Cooling us off. “Better?” I asked. She still had an angry glare.
“Oh, Zoro,” I said. “I got something else cool you will like.” I pulled out the ankle and wrist weights. Tossing them to him one by one he caught them easily.
“These are nice,” he said. I walked over and showed him how to buckle them on. He was soon moving around just as easily as I did in them. “I might be able to get more, want some?”
“Hell yeah,” he said, pulling out 2 of his swords. Slashing the air as he got used to the weights.
“I want to try,” Sanji said, picking up one of the ankle ones.
“Of course,” I said. Chewing my lip I decided on finally checking. “World Escape.”
I was soon in the room. Without hesitation I walked into the Naruto Doorway. It didn’t take long for Reina and Hina to appear beside me as we left Konoha.
“Hey girls, I forgot something,” I said.
“What is it?” Reina asked with a frown.
“I’ll be quick, I have to find Guy,” I said. Dropping my packs I was soon running around trying to find him. It didn’t take too long. He and Rock Lee were sparring outside of town. Guy sent me to where the weights were made. I bought another couple of sets and to my delight they both fit right in my status screen.
I was soon out the door and catching up to the girls. “What was that, young master?” Reina asked. I formed a seal and made another shadow clone.
“Nothing important,” I said. “I um feel the need to hurry this trip along.” I admitted. Grabbing the girls I had 2 clones. 1 for the luggage, and one to hold Hina. “Let’s get to the next village quickly. I could use a round with you both.”
“We just had sex,” Reina said, not sad, simply teasing.
“And yet I haven’t had my fill,” I said. We were soon running. The girls on my back we headed off to the next village. We made it in record time and I spent the night having sex with them. After 24 hours I said World Escape again and headed to One Piece World.
