Zeus had a perverted face as he stretched out his hands to fondle the shy little fairy in front of him when he was sent flying with a slap and smashed into the wall. Zeus opened his eyes and snapped "Which bastard!? My fairy!" he saw Nami staring at him with a furious look, he gulped and said fauningly "Ah Nami, my little goddess how are you? Would you like a massage?" he rubbed his hands together like a sly merchant and chuckled.
Nami's face turned red and steam came out of her ears, she was infuriated, first she heard that his bastard didn't like her on the Merry, now she wakes up to find him drooling in his dreams over some fairy! And what looked to be him fondling the air!
Zeus stood up and cracked his neck before saying "What did I do now?" Nami ignored him and went back into the bed, she turned to the side and showed Zeus her back. Zeus was confused, what was this situation? He walked over and felt her forehead before muttering "No fever.. What's wrong with you?"
Nami grit her teeth and said "You don't like me?" Zeus was dumbfounded and said "You..." he had a wry smile on his lips as he said "Don't tell me you like me..." Nami snorted and kept silent. Zeus sighed and sat down next to her, he leaned his lower back against hers and stroked her hair softly as he said "I can't."
Nami said "Why." Zeus chuckled sadly "It's too dangerous. Maybe one day..." he shook his head and said "It's better to forget about me. I-" she cut him off and said "I'm not good enough?"
Zeus turned and looked at Nami, who was looking into his eyes, he evaded her gaze and shook his head "It's not that. It's the opposite..." he hesitated before finally saying "There's a reason I wear a mask, Nami. Even in the marines there's only one person who knows what I look like."
Nami was shocked by this news and was silent for a moment before saying softly "Can you show me?" Zeus was conflicted and struggled internally before sighing and saying "I-" suddenly the side door opened and a little reindeer fell out and onto his face.
Zeus smiled slightly and touched Nami's forehead before walking away and sitting down on the chair. He looked at the reindeer and smiled, such a great help Chopper. He lit a cigarette and wrapped Chopper in a thunder rope before pulling him over.
Chopper landed in Zeus' lap and shivered, Zeus laughed and said "Hey there Doc, how's the patient doing?" Chopper looked at Nami and said "Good, though she needs rest." Nami was shocked by the talking reindeer but was more angry that he interrupted, so she puffed up her cheeks and ignored Chopper.
Chopper was sad and Zeus patted his hat and said "Don't worry, It's not because you have a blue nose. It's my fault actually. Kurama, nice to meet you." Chopper looked up at Zeus and said "Chopper" before struggling to escape, Zeus held his by his horns and watched Chopper run in the air. He laughed and put Chopper down, Chopper ran to the door and hid the wrong way, Zeus laughed even harder and almost swallowed his cigarette.
Chopper was confused and Zeus said "You're hiding the wrong way! Shishishishshishishishi" Chopper blushed and hid the right way this time before yelling "Stop laughing at me!" Zeus fell over laughing and coughed hard, in the end he really did swallow his cigarette, good thing he was made of lightning and the cigarette disintegrated in his throat.
Chopper was angry and kept yelling at Zeus, but his voice was too cute. Zeus coughed and sat back in the chair before saying seriously "Do you want to hear a story?" Chopper was quiet and even Nami perked her ears up, Zeus continued "It's called Rudolph the red nosed reindeer."
Chopper gasped "I have a blue nose!" Zeus almost started laughing again but took a deep breath and started to tell the story, Chopper and Nami listened and Zeus finished "From then on, Rudolph led all the reindeer in Santa's sleigh." Chopper was thinking silently and Nami felt something was wrong with this story, what was Christmas? Who was Santa Claus? Were they magic Reindeer?
Chopper said seriously "But my nose doesn't glow." Zeus almost fell down, little brother that wasn't the point.. Zeus coughed and said "That wasn't the point, you see, Rudolph was the key factor in pushing back the dark elves in the second Christmas eve war. Just because he was different, he was special. How many reindeers' noses glow? How many reindeer can walk on two legs and become a doctor? The point is, just because you have a blue nose doesn't mean everyone will hate you. Maybe one day you'll find great friends who will protect what you believe in and help you achieve your dreams."
Chopper was silent and the door to the room burst open, Luffy and Sanji ran in "Nami!" they saw Nami, Zeus, and... Luffy's eyes shined and he started drooling "Meat!" Sanji said seriously "Roasted Venison is good for recovery.." Chopper paled and started running, Luffy and Sanji chased after him yelling "Don't run from me Meat!"
Zeus watched them go and chuckled before sitting in his chair, the room was silent and Nami spoke "Did you come up with that story?" Zeus shook his head and said "I heard it somewhere else." Nami hummed and the room fell into silence again, Zeus enjoyed the peace but Nami couldn't take it anymore and said "You said that you can't but what about my sister?"
Zeus sighed and said "It was a one time thing with your sister. You're different." Nami said "How am I different?" Zeus looked at her and said "Your sister has had relationships before, have you ever had a relationship? Are you ready to seriously die any moment? Can you fight against the world? Is it worth it for me? Knowing that if we get together, you have a 10% chance of living and completing your dream."
He stood up and walked towards the window, he looked out and smiled slightly "Even if you agree, I won't." he turned to Nami and said sadly "Even if I like you, I don't want to see you get hurt. Especially when it's because of me." Nami looked at him silently and said "Why? What's so special about you. Why do you have so many enemies?"
Zeus smiled lightly and grabbed a sword from the wall, he chopped at his arm and the sword passed right through. He transformed his arm to a dragon arm and chopped again, the same thing happened. He threw the sword back and said "That's why, one of the 'Invincible' Fruit, coupled with the fact that, it became a Logia-Zoan. The world government will hunt be down if I run, if they can't find me.." he turned back to the window and said "They'll hunt you down. You, the crew, anyone that had any contact will me."
He paused for a second and clenched his fists "The result for anyone not strong enough is annihilation. You, nor Luffy and the crew are strong enough, and I know for a fact that none of you will choose to betray me. You would all fight to the end and that's not what I want." he took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions before walking to the door saying "You'll find out who I am when the time comes." with that he walked out of the door, leaving Nami alone in the room with her chaotic thoughts.
Zeus closed the door and heard a voice "Not a very gentle way to treat a lady." Zeus smiled and said "It's better to rip the band-aid in one go, don't you think so, Doctorine?" as he turned to face the old lady, who had the body on a 20 year old.
Kureha cackled and said "You're an interesting brat, even I'm curious as to what's under the mask." Zeus got closer and whispered "We'll make a trade, you tell me the secret to your eternal youth and I show you my face."
Kureha scoffed and chuckled "You're trying to take advantage of me brat?! You're 110 years late!" Zeus laughed and walked away as Kureha entered Nami's room. Zeus flashed away and disappeared while Kureha sat down on the chair in the room, she took out a flask and started drinking.
Nami didn't even notice her until she spoke "For someone who was about to die, you sure have a lot of thoughts." Nami turned to see an old lady and said "Who are you?" Kureha cackled and said "The young lady who cured you! The names Kureha but you can call me Doctorine."
Nami smiled a bit and said "Thank you, my name is Nami." Kureha waved and said "No problem, I'm a doctor, that's what I do. You however, need to sort your mind out girl." Nami was silent and said "What would you do?"
Kureha was startled and fell into her memories, she came back to her senses and shook her head "I made my decision once, do you see anybody with me now?" Nami shook her head sadly before saying softly "Do you regret it?"
Kureha looked at her flask and sadness flashed her eyes for a brief moment before she laughed "I did, but when you live as long as me, you tend to get over things." Nami sighed and fall back into the bed, Kureha walked over and put a finger on Nami's forehead and said "You're temperature is normal." Nami thanked her and Kureha chuckled "Listen to my advice girl, follow your heart. Trust yourself, not the words of others."
Nami kept silent and Kureha was about to walk out of the room when Chopper, Luffy, and Sanji bursted into the room.
Zeus was on top of the castle looking out at the sea as Smoker ranted over the snail, finally Zeus had enough and said "Alright Smokey, I get it. Where are you now." Smoker said "Nanohara." Zeus nodded and said "Good. Stay there, I'll be there in a while. I'll show you something you won't believe." Smoker grunted in response and Zeus turned serious and said "Besides that I have something to tell you, your ears only. This cannot leak out, not to Sengoku or anyone else."
Smoker was silent and Zeus said "If you take me as a friend, you'll agree." Smoker finally sighed and said "What is it." Zeus took a deep breath and said "I have a second devil fruit." it sounded like the snail fell to the floor on the other side before Smoker said quickly "What do you mean?!"
Zeus explained what he found and added "Technically It's a single fruit now. A combination of two other fruits, so I have a Logia-Zoan fruit." Smoker let out a breath and said "You're quite the lucky bastard." Zeus chuckled and said "Yeah but Seastone is 2x more effective on me, so that's the drawback."
Smoker said "Still, you have 2 powers, are you going to get another one and have three?! That's just insane." Zeus rubbed his chin and muttered "That could be interesting.." Smoker sweat a bit and said quickly "Relax. I was kidding.." Zeus chuckled and said "Anyway, this stays between us understand?" Smoker confirmed and after a good bye they hung up.
Zeus looked down to see Wapol yelling about something and Luffy, Sanji, and Chopper confronting him. He watched from the roof as Luffy blocked the shot from Wapol, saving Hiriluk's pirate flag. Zeus smiled as the events unfolded, the end result was the same, Wapol was sent flying and Chopper was invited to join the crew but ran away.
Zeus jumped from the roof and landed on the ground in front of the castle as the villagers, Vivi, Usopp, and Zoro arrived on the plateau. Zeus glanced at the villagers and ignored them, he turned to see Chopper hiding behind a tree and Luffy looking around for him.
One of the villagers pointed at Chopper and shouted "It's the monster!" the rest of the villagers pulled out their guns and shot at him, Chopper paled and the crew froze. Luffy paled and tried to jump in the way but he wasn't fast enough.
Zeus flashed in front of Chopper and blocked all the bullets with his body, Chopper fell on his butt in fear and looked up at Zeus. The crew breathed out a breath of relief but Luffy saw something wrong, he kept running towards Zeus in a hurry.
Zeus was infuriated this time and he roared "You ungrateful garbage!" he lifted his arm in the air and a giant lightning spear appeared, the sky darkened and thunder rumbled. Zeus' eyes turned red and lightning crackled from the corners, thick dragon horns sprouted from his head and his teeth became sharp.
He grabbed the spear and was about to slam it down when Kureha appeared out of nowhere and chopped at the back of Zeus' neck, her palm flashed black briefly and she knocked Zeus out. Zeus fell limp in her arms and she took him to the castle saying "Dalton, take everyone to the armory and get to work." Dalton nodded dumbly and the crew glared at the villagers as they left. It definitely wasn't a good trip.
A while later
Zeus woke up in a hospital bed, he turned his head to see his mask on the table next to him. He panicked and put it back on quickly, he laughed at himself "I've been wearing it for so long it doesn't feel right without it.." he looked out the window and wondered if he was fucked now, fortunately someone dispelled his thoughts "Relax brat, none one saw."
Zeus turned to see Kureha smiling at him, he chuckled and let out a breathe of relief before saying "How is it? Handsome?" Kureha scoffed "80 years too young for me." Zeus clicked his tongue and said "Damn, and I didn't even get the secret to eternal youth in exchange." he shook his head as if it was a pity and Kureha laughed before saying "I can see why you rejected that girl now. Quite the shocking thing is you ask me."
Zeus smiled wryly "What can I do? I don't have a choice." Kureha shrugged and said "It's none of my business anyway." before walking out the door, she stopped and said "Thanks for saving Chopper." before leaving completely.
Zeus smiled and got out of bed, he stretched his limbs and left the castle. When he got outside he saw the rest of the crew looking around waiting for something, he walked towards them and said "Hey!" they looked at him and smiled, Luffy said "Thanks for saving my doctor."
Zeus smiled a bit himself and said "No problem! He was just a civilian before, it's my duty as a marine!" Luffy laughed and Vivi rolled her eyes before saying "The villagers aren't so lucky?"
Zeus got serious and said "These kinds of people, it's better to send them to hell." Vivi was taken aback and the rets of the crew nodded in agreement. After all, if not for Zeus, Chopper would be swiss cheese right now. Speaking of Chopper, he was running out of the castle screaming "Run! She's coming!"
The crew was confused until they saw Kureha running after Chopper, throwing weapon after weapon, seemingly pulling them out of the void. Zeus was amazed and a shoe lit him in the face, he was confused and saw that the shoe was black. He looked at Kureha incredulously before Luffy pulled him into the sleigh and they rode the cable down the mountain back to the Merry.
They got into the Merry and quickly set sail, when they heard a loud boom. The crew turned around to see pink clouds covering the mountain peaks, making it look like cherry blossom trees. Chopper started crying and the rest looked at the view in amazement. Zeus had to admit, seeing it in real life was truly beautiful, the only thing missing was the music. He decided to get an instrument, he remembered all the songs maybe he could play them again, that would be pretty cool.
He pictured himself as a wandering musician, playing the songs from the show at the times they were at. Recreating the anime in real life! What a dream! Too bad he had no musical talent, whatsoever. Maybe he could make Brook play them! He decided in his heart that he would get Brook to play the songs.
As Zeus was lost in his own world the Merry sailed towards Alabasta slowly and the crew started partying for Chopper to warm him up to the crew. They had a lot of fun as the time slowly trickled away, Zeus was drinking with Zoro at a table and thinking to himself. It was strange that Kureha had Haki, she never used it in the show and it was understood that she never had it.
He shrugged his shoulders and determined that she must've been sailing the grandline before and learned it there, this wasn't a show anymore. he knew that much at least. He forgot about the abnormality and focused on drinking, not knowing that his ignorance would bite him back hard in the future. The difference between the anime world and the real world.. was astronomical.
