Chapter 29 : I'm no Looking Glass-One Piece-Chapter 59
And here we go.
Recap-“That’s just like you brother, or should I say the Chained Fighter.”
The next day you all were out on the deck, and you were stretching out, getting ready to practice with your Devil Fruit. “Don’t lie to me Luffy! Tell me what you know. Oi what’s with turning your face away, look at me!” Sanji said.
“No no.” Luffy said nervously, “I really don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Okay then I’ll ask you again. How is it that the rations I prepared to last the ten of us until we reached Arabasta…suddenly disappeared in the middle of the night? Don’t give m e that attitude! You’d be terrible at poker!” Sanji said before standing up, “Oi, there’s something around your mouth.”
“Ah crap! Leftovers.” Luffy said, covering his mouth.
“SO IT WAS YOU!!!” Sanji yelled, kicking Luffy. “Jerk.” He said before turning to Nami, “Ah Nami you see that? My giant mouse trap isn’t enough anymore! You gotta buy me a refrigerator with a lock!” Sanji said.
“You have a point.” Nami said, “I’ll think about it. Our lives probably depend on it.”
“Well then, we have to catch some fish for Sanji-kun!” Ussop said as he, Chopper, and Carue were facing away, on the railing fishing.
“Oh is it going well?” Sanji asked.
They all turned grinning a bit too widely, “Of course!”
Sanji knocked their heads together and you could see that they had been eating. “I can’t take my eyes off you for a second.”
“Sanji.” You say calmly, “I could probably form a temporary lock. Would that be alright?” you ask, walking over.
“Of course Levia-san!” Sanji said, “I will be ever more grateful to you!”
You sweat drop, and tap his shoulder, “I’m just putting a lock on the fridge Sanji…” you say.
You walked inside and Zoro glared at Sanji. You were well out of earshot when Sanji said, “What swords boy? Jealous?”
“No…” Zoro muttered.
“That doesn’t sound like it…” Sanji said.
You came inside to see Nami and Chopper at the table, doing their own things. Aideen was sitting with Chopper, conversing with him. You grinned before moving towards the fridge, placing your hand over it and closing your eyes.
A thick glass lock quickly formed over the door handle, and a glass key appeared in your hands. You gave it to Sanji, who was watching.
The door opened and Vivi came in, “Nami-san, there’s something wrong! Come quick!” Vivi said.
Everyone went out and out in front of the ship was a gigantic pillar of steam! “Ah don’t worry. It’s nothing, just some steam.” Nami said.
“Steam coming from the ocean?” Vivi asked.
“Yeah it’s a hotspot, a place where magma rises. There’s an underwater volcano over there.”
“There are volcanoes even on the ocean floor?” Chopper asked.
“That’s right. There’re actually more volcanoes on the ocean floor than on land. If it stays like this, in another few thousand, or few ten thousand years… there will be a new island here.” Nami said.
“You’re wonderful Nami-shan!” Sanji fawned.
You rolled your eyes and everyone moved back to what they were doing. The guys complained to Sanji about food so he went to cook. You moved to where Zoro was sitting, plopping down with a sigh. The ship slowly went through the steam and for quite a bit it was impossible to see anything. However, once you reached the other side everyone seemed extremely relieved. In fact you saw that some of the crew had been frozen in their spots like a deer in headlights until the area cleared up. It wasn’t long before the next disturbance. In fact it was moments before Luffy and Ussop came back with an odd looking man they had apparently saved. Everyone gathered around, but Sanji was still inside. Aideen was back at your shoulder as you looked at the weird man.
He wore blue puffed out shorts with lighter blue stripes. His shirt was a simple blue collared shirt but he wore a pink robe and ballerina slippers! He had lipstick, obvious blush and green zig-zagged eye shadow. Behind him, on his robe were two swan heads and wings! He wore a weird crown with two white puff-balls and had short cropped black hair with bangs. He was soaking wet as well. “Oh, I thought it was all over. No really!” he said, putting a hand in front of his face, “Swan, swan. My life has been saved by pirates that I do not even know. I will never forget your kindness!” he said bowing. “Oh but I was wondering if I might have a bowl of warm soup.”
“WE DON’T HAVE ANY!!” Everyone yelled.
“WE’RE STARVING TOO!” Zoro said.
“Oh my well aren’t you cute! My little fruit I just want to eat you up!” the man said, blowing a kiss to Vivi.
“So you can’t swim right?” Luffy asked, ignoring his actions and Vivi’s reaction.
“You’re so right there.” The man said, swaying back and forth, “I ate a Devil’s Fruit.”
“Ah, which one?” Ussop asked.
The man stood, “Yes well… I suppose there’s no need to rush while I wait for my ship to come get me. I might as well put on a show. Prepare to witness my ability!” he said, hitting Luffy!
Zoro drew his sword and Aideen screeched as you brought out a gun. “Wait wait wait!’ the man said in Luffy’s voice, “I said I was putting on a show! Stop joooking around!” he said, leaning forward. There was something strange though, he was speaking with an oddly familiar voice, but it seemed so wrong. It wasn’t long before you had figured out it was Luffy’s, and the man copied his face as well!
“It’s me!” Luffy exclaimed.
“Surprised you! Surprised you! Surprised you!” the man said obnoxiously laughing, “When I touch myself with my left hand…” he said, touching himself to reveal his old face, “See! Back to normal!” he said. “This is the ability I gained from eating the Mane Mane Fruit!”
“His voice and even his physique were the same!” Ussop said.
“COOL!” Luffy said.
The guy turned around like a ballerina, “Well there really is no need to hit anybody though. Hi look at me!” he said, copying Ussop’s face, “If I touch my face…” he said, touching his face again to copy Zoro’s face “With my right hand…” he said, changing into Chopper, “I can imitate aaanyone… Just like this.” He said, changing to Nami. “Even the body.” He said when he stopped on Nami, pulling the robes back.
Everyones eyes bugged out and Nami quickly hit him. “Knock it off!” she yelled.
He got back up and you could see that he was back to normal, “I’m sorry to say that I shouldn’t show you any more of my ability than…”
“You’re awesome! Do some more!!” Luffy yelled as Ussop whistled and Chopper clapped.
“Ah! Really I guess I have no choice! Wanna see some more? My memory ability!” he said, changing faces. You watched with a sort of morbid curiosity as he changed from person to person. If he really wanted to this man could be very dangerous. He could change to faces that you had never seen before, therefore faces that weren’t in the immediate vicinity. “So how was my performance?” he said, back to normal, “I usually don’t show this to people.”
“It was great!” Luffy yelled.
Suddenly Luffy, Chopper, and Ussop were dancing around with him. “My. The time has come for us to part.” The man said, leaping to the railing at the sight of a strange pink ship. “How tragic.”
“Please don’t go!” Ussop cried.
“Do not be sad! Journeys and partings go hand in hand. But remember this, to true friendship, how long you’ve known each other means nothing!” he cried, leaping over.
“WE’LL SEE YOU AGAIN!” Luffy yelled.
“Now let’s go men!”
“Aye! Mr. 2, Bon Clay-sama!” they said.
Your eyes widened and everyone freaked out. “WHAT!! Mr. 2!?” Ussop yelled.
“Vivi! Didn’t you recognize him?!” Luffy asked.
“No…I’ve never met Mr. 2 or the Mr. 1 pair before… I don’t even know their abilities!” She said, leaning against the door. “But I did hear rumors… “Mr. 2. They said he is a flamboyant ballerina with a loud voice…. Who wears a swan coat with the words Bon Clay written on the back.”
“You should have noticed.” The guys said.
“What’s wrong Vivi?” you ask as she was clutching her head.
“Just then…among those faces he showed from memory… My father’s face was in his memory! The face of the King of Arabasta, Nefertari Cobra…”
“If you could impersonate the King…” Zoro said.
“You could pull off some very nasty things.” You said.
“We just let a really dangerous guy get away.” Ussop said.
“He’s our enemy?’ Chopper asked.
“He certainly will be a lot of trouble if he turns out to be our enemy. After he discovers that we are his enemies he can use that memory of his to impersonate any one of us.” Nami said, “We won’t be able to trust our own nakama.”
“Really…” Luffy started.
“While this guy may not have any base for his opinion, he’s right in saying we don’t have to be afraid of that guy.” Zoro said. “I think we’re lucky that we met him.”
You sparked up with a grin, “You’re right, then we can take countermeasures.” you grin.
Before you could explain exactly what you meant a gigantic white cat came out of the ocean! “That thing’s huge!!!” Luffy said.
“A Sea Cat!” Vivi said.
“A SEA MONSTER!!” Ussop and Chopper yelled.
“OUR FIRST MEAL IN FOUR DAYS!!!” Zoro yelled, pulling out his swords.
“FOOD!” Luffy yelled.
The thing drew back and Sanji came running out, “Don’t let it get away! Make sure you kill it!” he yelled, “You’d better make some damn good cooking you monster cat!”
“No!” Vivi yelled, taking a broom and knocking them all down. “You can’t eat it! In Arabasta Sea Cats are sacred creatures!”
“Vivi, it looks like the wind and climate have begun to stabilize.” Nami said.
“Yes we’ve appeared in Arabasta’s climate zone. The fact that a Sea Cat appeared is proof.”
“I’ll bet those things behind us… are even more proof that we’re close to Arabasta.” Zoro said.
You looked out and saw tons of ships all saying the same thing, “Look at all those ships! When did they…?” Luffy asked.
“They all say Baroque Works!” you say.
“The employees have started to gather, those are probably the Billions.” Vivi said. “The subordinates of the officer agents.”
“200 of them will be tough…” Nami said.
“Moreover, these 200 are Baroque Works elite… They are on a different level from the bounty hunters at Whiskey Peak.” Vivi said.
Ussop started cranking up one of the cannons quickly, “Okay, let’s open fire while we still have the chance! LET’S FINISH THEM OFF QUICK!!” Ussop yelled, pointing.
“No it’s faster to just go over and kick their asses!” Luffy said. “No wait, I need to eat first!” Luffy said.
“Idiots, don’t worry about them!” Zoro said. “They’re small fry.”
“Exactly.” Sanji said, “If we lose sight of our true objective, that’s it. There are only ten of us here.”
Later you all were wrapping a white cloth around your left arms. “Alright, make sure you tie it tight.” Zoro said. “There’s too much we don’t know about our enemy.”
“I see. If we use these to confirm our identities we won’t have to doubt our nakama.” Nami said.
“Did he really look like you that much when he did the Mane Mane Fruit transforming thing?” Sanji asked, having been cooking at the time.
“The problem was he didn’t just look like us, he was us! Too bad, you really should have seen it! We were even dancing with the guy!”
You shook your head, moving over to Zoro, motioning for him to help you. He tied it carefully around your left arm, and you smiled at him in thanks. He smiled back and for a moment you forgot what you were doing, just staring at him thoughtfully with a huge idiotic grin on your face. Suddenly Zoro turned around and walked off coldly. You frowned, somehow suddenly sad as you tied the cloth around Aideen’s bell. “Since we know this guy is the enemy we can’t be careless.” You say, trying hard to mask the pain you had felt at the moment.
You really had no idea what was going on with your mind. You often found yourself reacting in odd ways to what Zoro has said or done, and your emotions were far off of your radar. You honestly had no idea what was going on! Well, that’s a lie, you had a theory but it was unacceptable. “I see land!” Luffy said, probably the only one who hadn’t noticed the change in your demeanor.
You looked out to see a large hilly desert! “We’re going to stop at a port called Nanohana. We have to hide the ship.” Nami said.
“Yosh! Whatever happens from now on this left arm is the mark of a nakama!” Luffy said as all of you put your left arm out in a circle. “Now, let’s get on dry land! TO EAT! Oh and to save Arabasta.”
“Sort out your priorities.” Everyone said.
