Recap:

"Cheering?" You say in confusion. All of the people of the island are gathered, waving at the ship and cheering. "Welcome to the Grand Line!" one man shouts. "Welcome to our town, Whiskey Peak!" Usopp looks in confusion.

"We're being, welcomed?"

"What's going on?" Sanji mutters. The crew watches in awe, as they're being welcomed. "Pirates! Welcome to our town!"

"Hurray for the heroes of the sea!"

Sanji's eyes catch the several girls waving to them. "There's a lot of cute girls!" he says, hearts bulging out his eyes. Usopp takes the praise, waving to everyone proudly. "Maybe pirates are everyone's heroes after all!"

You frown, turning to Zoro "Does this seem right to you?" he shakes head. "No. Be on guard at all times," he mutters.

When the ship lands, the crew is met with a man with thick and long curls. He is wearing a suit, and has a saxophone. "Welco-" he starts to cough, trying to clear his throat. "Ma-ma-ma!" you sweat drop. "Welcome. My name is Igarappoi. I'm the mayor of Whiskey Peak."

"Oh, I'm Luffy. Nice to meet ya." Luffy points to the curls in his hair. "Pops, you went overboard in curling your hair!"

"Whiskey Peak is a town that thrives on making liquor and music. Hospitality is the pride of our town." he says. Your eyes narrow. There was no way a town could be this nice. You didn't trust this place one bit. "Would you allow us to throw a party for you so that we may hear your tales... *cough cough cough* ma-ma-ma! Your tales of adventure." he finishes.

"We'll be glad to!" Luffy, Sanji and Usopp say in unison. Meanwhile, you, Nami and Zoro just watch annoyed. "Three idiots.." Nami mutters. Nami goes to ask the mayor about the log pose. "Say, by the way, how long will it take for the log of this island to be stored?" "Log? Forget about such boring stuff." he says. "Please rest after such a long journey." He puts his hand on Nami's shoulder and goes to do the same with you, but you slap his hand away.

"Now everyone! Prepare for the party!" he shouts.

You didn't like this one bit. "Hey, Luffy?" Luffy turns to you. "Yeah Y/n?" he asks. "Can I stay back on the ship?" he frowns, making a pouty face. "Huh? Why? We're going to have a party!" he says.

"It's just that-" the mayor walks over to you, patting your head gently. "There's nothing to be afraid of! Relax! Have fun!" You go to protest more, but you knew it was no use. You sigh. "Fine. Let's go." And so the party began. There were people playing instruments as well as drinking.

You didn't like to drink, so you decided to sit down and watch the party. Usopp was telling his stories about the "brave" Captain Usopp. "Then, I said with utter coolness, 'Sea Kings, don't touch my friends!'" The girls were swooning over him. "Oh! Captain Usopp!" they cried. "Well, regarding the Calm Belt, even I trembled a bit though. A tremble of excitement of course!"

"Amazing! Cheer for Captain Usopp!" the men cry.

A man comes over to where you are sitting, placing a large cup of alcohol in front of you. "Please, drink up." you shake your head, backing away. "No, please. I don't like alcohol." you say panicked. "Don't worry. It's made of prime grapes that are used to make prime wine." he assures. You still shake your head. "Though it sounds nice, I really don't like alcohol."

Zoro puts his arm around your shoulder. "Stop being a wuss Y/n!" he takes the cup and pours it into your mouth. You try your best not to gag, but swallow. "Hmm.. It tastes good!" you exclaim. It didn't taste like alcohol at all.

"Yes! Now please, join our competition!" You and Nami shake your heads. "I can't drink that much!" you two say in unison. He pulls out a large bag with the berries symbol. "The prize is 100,000 berries!" Nami immediately stands up, cup out. "Another drink, please!" she says.

She turns to you and Zoro. "Zoro! Y/n! You participate too! You don't have any money, do you?" You try to back away. "Nami! I can't drink that mu-" She sends one of her deathly glares to you. "Drink. Now." You sigh, looking down at the cup. "More please." you say in a shaky voice.

Meanwhile, Luffy was over by the food, eating to his heart's content. Zoro slams down his cup with a satisfied sigh. "Look! He's on his tenth cup!" one man yells. Another points to Nami. "She's downing her twelfth!" your head was pounding. You only had three cups and your vision was already blurry.

Luffy empties another plate. "More please!"

"Whoa! The captain finished a meal enough for twenty people!" they shout. The cook suddenly collapses, making everyone laugh.

"Please, I can't go on...." he groans. Meanwhile, Sanji was surrounded by women. "This young man is trying to hit on twenty girls at the same time!"

Zoro sighs. "This is it. I'm done." he falls face first onto the table. "That man is down after thirteen cups!" You sigh with relief seeing Zoro was passed out. Nami's cheeks are tinted pink. "You two siblings are hopeless!" she yells. Suddenly, your stomach starts to churn.

You quickly stand up, walking quickly past the people with quick 'excuse me' or 'coming through'. You run out the door, running away from the party and puke. You couldn't take alcohol so the dreaded three cups you had was already getting to you. When you finished, your vision was so bad, you couldn't see straight. "I better find the Going Merry...." you mutter. You started to walk aimlessly around the island, trying to figure out which way to go.

You see the mayor and Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday. You hide behind the nearest wall, listening in. "Miss Monday." he says. You gasp as the sister from before throws off her black dress, revealing a checkered one, along with two pink short ponytails on her head.

"Wha...?" Igarappoi holds up Luffy and your wanted posters. "Th-thirty million berries?! 100 million berries?!" they exclaim in unison.

"How are they worth so much?!" Miss Monday exclaims. "Well," Igarappoi points to your picture. "We all know the reason the boss wants her." he says. "Go. Capture them alive!" he says.

Suddenly you feel yourself being scooped up, and when you look up, you see a familiar green. "Zoro-hic!" you mutter groggily. "Sorry, but do you mind letting them sleep?" all of them look up and see Zoro holding you, and his katana drawn.

Two men appear from below. "Mr 8! Miss Monday! The guy with the bellyband and the girl escaped!" "He's over there!" Miss Wednesday huffs.

"You bastard! I thought you were asleep!" Mr. 8 snaps. Zoro smirks. "Swordsmen never make the mistake of letting their guard down that much." he looks down at you and sweat drops. "Well, unless you're my sister." he mutters. "Shut- hic- up!" you mutter.

"So let me get this straight: this town is a whole nest of bounty hunters. You dupe pirates who are in high spirits after they just entered the Grand Line." Zoro stands up, and helps you up as well. "Looks like there's about 100 bounty hunters..." you mutter.

"We'll fight you all.....Baroque Works!" Zoro shouts. Mr. 8, Mr. 9 and Miss Monday's eyes widen. "You bastards! How do you know our company name?!" Zoro pulls out his Wado Ichimonji.

You unsheathe your dagger. "When I was a bounty hunter, I was recruited by you guys. Naturally, I rejected." he says. "Employees don't know each other's identity and are called by code names. And, the boss' location is even a mystery to them. Baroque Works is just a criminal company that faithfully carries out orders."

You and Zoro turn to the bounty hunters. "Oh, sorry." he teases. "Was that a secret?"giving his confident smirk. Mr. 8 has his eyes shadowed. "If you know our secrets....We have no choice but to kill you." he looks up at the two of you.

"Another grave stone........will be added to the Cactus Rocks........" your head whips around in the direction of the Cactus Rocks. Your eyes widen realizing they were all grave stones. "You're sick......." you whisper in anger. He smirks. "Now, kill him! Take the girl alive-"

When the bounty hunters turn around, they see that you and Zoro have disappeared. "W-Where the hell did they disappear to?!" Mr. 8 stutters. Everyone looks around in confusion and fear. In between the crowd, stand you and Zoro side by side, glancing where the two of you had just been on the roof top.

"Hmmm..." the two of you mutter. All of the bounty hunters' eyes widen, as they back away from the two. "Well, alright then. Let's have some fun!" you giggle.

The hunters cock their guns, pointing them at Zoro. "How dare you mock us!" and as quickly as the bullets were launched, the duo disappeared again. About 20 of them were down.

"Kill him already!" Mr. 8 yells. "It's just one swordsman!" He squeaks in fear when he sees a katana by the side of his face, pierced through his thick locks of light blonde hair. Along with the dagger pointed at his heart.

"Hey, how rude." you say, pretending to pout. "You forgot about me." Zoro smirks. "Let me ask you a question: Are you sure you only need to add one gravestone?"

More bounty hunters appear, surrounding the three. "There they are!" they point their guns once again at the three. Mr. 8 panicks. "I-Idiots! Don't shoot! You going to kill me too?!" Mr. 8 suddenly pulls out his saxophone, only when he blows into it, bullets come out. You and Zoro quickly dodge, disappearing behind one of the houses nearby.

The two of you pant. The sudden attack surprised you. "So that's a shot gun..." Zoro mutters. "What I wanna know is why they only wanna kill you." you cross your arms over your chest. Zoro rolls his eyes. "You're just not a threat." You glare at him. "I have a bounty. You don't." he scowls, "Whatever. Just get ready." he says.

Zoro looks down at his two new swords from Rogue Town. "Looks like I get to test the two of you out." he says. You hear the sound of a gun cocking. You look up and see a man standing above you and Zoro.

"Die!" he yells. You grab Zoro, kicking down the door behind you as the two of you narrowly miss the bullet. Zoro looks around and sees six other bounty hunters behind the two of you.

"Move!" he flips over a table in front of you, and he moves behind it so the two of you can use it as a shield. The bullets are fired, and you look to Zoro for what to do. He unsheathes first the sword called Yubarashi. "Let's try you first." he says. He grabs your wrist, as he slices through the table, and speeds past the bounty hunters, cutting them in the process.

"This is light! It's a good sword!" he says. You frown. "Hey! Save some prey for me!" he rolls his eyes. "Fine! But be careful!" he lets go of your wrist, and you bolt the opposite direction.

You are met with five bounty hunters, each armed with a sword. "Look! It's the girl!" one shouts. "Capture her!" another says, and two charge at you. You smirk, pulling out your They laugh. "What're you going to do with that?!" they laugh.

When you unsheathe it, water surrounds the blade, confusing the men. Your eyes turn ocean blue, and the water wraps around the blade, extending it so the dagger splits and turns into . The men back away a bit, but swallow their fear and charge. You grin, as you hold up the two swords, so they are both pointing horizontally to the left, and charge at the men.

They stop, and suddenly have blood shoot out from their chest, as they both have long diagonal cuts on their chests. The three remaining men squeak in fear. "W-what the- happened?!" one screams. "It was just water!" You laugh, and the men scream seeing your menacing face.

"Water is quite dangerous, especially when you're fighting Water Bearer Y/n!" You yell proudly.

The men scream, trying to run away but it's too late as you quickly stab the three of them, and watch in satisfaction as their bodes collapse. You run up to the roof tops, cutting up the men and women up there.

'Man, it's been a while! This feels good!' you thought to yourself. Finally, you land on the same roof top as Zoro. You see behind him a woman and a Sister. "Lord have mercy! I beg you for mercy!" she holds a little boy, while Zoro looks at them. You drop your guard. "They're scared...." you mutter.

Suddenly you see them pull out a gold cross, as they spray some kind of gas out. "Zoro!" you yell as you throw your sword into the woman's back, and it stabs out through her chest and the boy's killing them instantly. You run up and grab your sword, ripping it out, and wiping off the blood.

He makes a tch sound. "Hey! They were my kill!" you stick out your tongue. "Beat ya to it! Besides, they're only my 7th!" you whine. "Let's go!" Zoro grabs your wrist, dragging you up the ladders to the higher roofs as the bounty hunters follow. When you reach the second highest roof, you grab the ladder and start rocking it back and forth teasingly.

The man on it starts to sweat nervously. "S-stop it!" he cries. "Okay!" you says cheerfully as you drop the ladder. The people on it fall, and Zoro jumps over to the other roof top. "Two Sword Style..Hawk Wave!" he slices the people there, but he panics a bit because of how well the cursed sword cuts.

You jump down from the roof tops, taking on the people below. "Bring it!" you say. Suddenly, you hear a loud crashing sound, as you turn to see Miss Monday choking Zoro. You gasp, going to run up to him, but two men come up from behind you, and grab your underarms, causing you to drop your swords. "Zoro!" you scream.

Miss Monday slams him down on the ground, and holds up her fist, with brass knuckles on her hand. She slams her fist down, and you hear the ground crack. "ZORO!!!"

"Shut up!" one of the men kick you in the back of your knees, causing you to collapse. When the dust clears though, Zoro has his hand on Miss Monday's face. She is on her knees, gripping Zoro's forearm, as her arm is shaking.

"What? I thought you wanted a contest of strength, muscle woman." He tightens his grip. "Well?!" she drops her hand, and collapses on the roof top. Zoro looks down, and you notice a bit of blood on his forehead where he got him. "Shall we continue, Baroque Works?" he says.

You smile. "Zoro! Little help please!" you say, gesturing to the men holding you. He rolls his eyes, as he jumps down, cutting the men holding you. "Thank you!" you say. He laughs. "And I thought you were the great 'Water Bearer Y/n!'" he jokes.

You get mad, and hit his shoulder. "Shut up! I was worried about you!" he slaps the back of your head. "Wow, I'm honored! My little sister was worried about me!" he says sarcastically. You huff, crossing your arms and turning away. "Fine! Maybe I should be taken by Baroque Works!"

Mr. 8, Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday were getting more and more irritated by the fight the two siblings were having. "SHUT UP!!" They scream. "I-It must be a mistake on that first wanted poster!" Mr. 8 stutters. Mr. 9 nods. "Yeah, Water Bearer's is accurate, but, that guy! He must be the real captain worth 30 million berries!" "Not to mention they're siblings!" Miss Wednesday adds.

She glares at the two of you. "It appears it's our turn to fight." And she was right. Those three were the only ones still standing. The others had been taken down. "You may know this," Mr. 9 says. "but with members of Baroque Works the smaller his number, the higher his destructive power." he holds up three fingers.

"The three of us: Mr. 9, Mr. 8 and Miss Wednesday, are agents with a single digit number, which means we're powerful people."

"Hmph." Zoro says. "Aren't titles useless when it comes to fighting?" you shrug. "The stronger one wins. That's all." Mr. 8 blows into his saxophone again, firing bullets. You grab your twin swords, and fling all of the bullets away. "Let's go, Miss Wednesday!" Mr. 9 yells.

She nods, and puts her pinky in her mouth, making a whistling sound. "Come Karoo!" A duck appears, with a leather satchel and a colorful beanie. He holds out his wing. "I didn't say 'give me your hand!' Come over here!" Miss Wednesday yells.

She hops on the duck. "Now, show them your quick speed that can outrun leopards!" The duck lets out a loud "QUACK!" and sits down. "No one said sit!" Miss Wednesday yells. "What the hell is that?" Zoro looks down at the duck.

You, on the other hand, your eyes have stars in them as you squeal and start petting the duck. "SO CUTEE!!!" you squeal. "You're adorable!" you start poking the duck and petting it's head. The duck quacks softly. "Don't touch Karoo!" Miss Wednesday yells. "OI! Get over here Y/n!" Zoro yells.

"Can you afford to let your guard down?" Mr. 9 yells, as he goes to attack Zoro. "Go Zoro!" you say with no energy, and go back to snuggling with Karoo.

"So soft!" you bury your face in his feathers. Miss Wednesday tries to pry you off. "Get away you freak!" she suddenly gets an idea. 'I can take her when she's distracted!' she says in her head.

She pulls out two small bottles of perfume, and sprays them. "Now watch Mr. Bushido, Water Bearer! Charming Perfume Dance!" the strange spray starts to spread, and you and Zoro suddenly feel weak. You back away from Karoo and Miss Wednesday, your forearm covering your nose, but you collapse on your knees. Miss Wednesday pulls out a small 'Peacock Slasher' and charges at Zoro.

"I'll finish you off! Peacock Slasher!" but Karoo runs too far, and ends up falling in the small space between the two roofs. "Wow, fighting these guys is becoming embarrassing..." Zoro says.

Suddenly there is an off key note, and you turn to see it's Mr. 8 with his saxophone. The bullets fire, and Zoro drags you down a small hole in the roof he made earlier. "That's useless!" he calls from above. Zoro and you silently dash out the building, hiding out of sight.

You wince, seeing that the bullet hit your right side. Zoro looks at you. "Did you get shot?" you quickly slap your hand over the wound, shaking your head. "Nope! Still, that shotgun is such a pain......" you mutter, trying to get Zoro to forget it. He nods. "How should we approach him...?"

Mr. 9 appears out of the rubble, his left green sleeve missing, and he holds two iron bats. "How dare you defeat me earlier!" Zoro raises an eyebrow at him. "You're the one that fell!" He swings his bat, and the top comes off, with an iron chain that wraps around Zoro's left arm.

"Yes! I caught him! Do it, Mr. 8!" Mr. 8 watches from above. "Yes, it seems you've caught them. Neither of you move!"

"Or I'll have to take your friend's life as well." Miss Wednesday appears with an overstuffed Luffy and a knife. You and Zoro tense. "That idiot....He can at least be awake when he's a hostage!" Zoro yells. Mr. 8 pulls the strings of his tie, revealing hidden guns in his hair.

"What the-?!" you yell as the bullets are fired. "Duck!" Zoro slams you down into the ground, then tugs the chain, sending Mr. 9 forward and getting hit with the bullets. Zoro then throws Mr. 9 at Miss Wednesday and Karoo, sending them into a wall. Mr. 8 continues to fire, but your run over to Luffy, bouncing off of his large stomach.

"Sorry Luffy!" you say. Mr. 8 looks up in shock as you cut him with your twin swords. You sigh with relief as his body collapses. "Finally! That took forever!" you hop down to where Zoro is.

"Good to see you're okay." he says. You take the hilt of your sword and smack him in the face with it. "You meanie! That hurt!" you snap. He growls, drawing his swords. "You wanna go?!" The two of you continue you to yell and argue, and at the same time, Luffy wakes up. "Huh? Why am I outside?" he says groggily. "Well, I'm going back to sleep." he mutters. Suddenly you hear and see a loud explosion in the distance. "What was that?" you mutter.

You hop down off the roof, and see a woman wearing a yellow dress with lemons all over it. She also had a matching yellow hat, and a yellow and blue striped umbrella. There was also a man with dreadlocks, wearing a brown coat with "5" written on it. They were standing in front of the Baroque Workers you'd just beaten up with Zoro. You decide to watch to see how it plays out.

"No way!" Mr. 8 yells. "Miss Valentine! Mr. 5!" 'So that's their names...' you thought to yourself. The girl you guessed was Miss Valentine laughs. "I guess this shows our difference in ranks!" Mr. 8 glares at her. "Have you come to just laugh at us?"

"Well yes," Mr. 5 says, "Along with our own mission too. Mr. 9 struggles to look at them. "Good! Now that you're here, Water Bearer and that swordsman don't stand a chance!" Miss Wednesday nods. "Yes, please help us!"

"Huh? Cut the jokes. Us help you?" Mr. 5 sneers. "Did you really think we'd come all the way to the end of the Grand Line for that?" she laughs again. It was getting on your nerves. You admit, you didn't like those guys, but this 'Miss Valentine' was annoying you even more. "Then what is your mission?!" Mr. 5 steps forward.

"Huh? You really have no clue? Well, it's two things: first, these're the bosses' words: 'They've learned my secret'. Of course, even I don't know what the secret is, our company's motto is 'mystery,' but through careful investigating we've learned they're missing from a different kingdom."

Miss Valentine laughs. "Specifically, the Alabasta Kingdom, two of them!" Suddenly Mr. 8 jumps up and starts firing his guns again. "I won't let you touch our princess! On my name as Squad Captain of Alabasta Kingdom Security!!"

"Princess?!" you shout, but then immediately cover your mouth. They don't pay any mind to you, though you still step out. What no one noticed, was Nami watching all of this.

"Igaram!" Miss Wednesday yells. The two agents appear unharmed, as if nothing happened they contnue. "Igaram, Squad Captain of Alabasta Kingdom Security, and Nefertari Vivi, princess, we will eliminate you!"

The girl you now recognize as Vivi, her eyes go wide with shock and fear. The two agents then notice you. "Oh? A bonus! The capture of Water Bearer Y/n!" Miss Valentine laughs.

You tighten the grips on your twin swords, as you step forward, in front of the Alabastans, getting into battle stance. "I'm not going without a fight!"
