34 Chapter 33
After returning to the group with Robin, Vivi immediately exclaimed.
"Luffy why are you with Miss All-Sunday?" Vivi was visibly shocked at seeing her.
"Nice to see you as well princess." Robin greeted her with a smile, which caused Vivi to shudder.
"Her real name is Robin, and she will be joining the crew," I answered with a grin.
"What do you mean, she will be joining the crew? She is the partner of Crocodile, and she is our enemy. Why would you invite her?" Vivi questioned with a scared look.
"I haven't officially joined the pirate crew, but I will be tagging along. The Captain has something to prove before I decide to join." Robin answered before I had the chance.
"Robin isn't as bad as you think, and you and Mikita were also our enemy a few days ago. She also gave me an Eternal Pose to Alabasta." I said, but then I felt something moving in our way coming from the Going Merry. Sanji shortly appeared with a murderous gaze.
"You bastard," Sanji screamed and attacked me with full strength.
After making sure I was a distance away from Robin, Sanji stopped attacking and turned towards Robin.
"My fair lady, please do not listen to this seducer. He has already enticed three beautiful women with his lies. My name is Sanji, and I promise to treat you like a princess." Sanji bowed to Robin and tried to kiss her hand. Unfortunately for the poor guy, she kicked him away.
"That's why I'm temporarily going with you, to see if what he said is true," Robin told Sanji and the rest.
"Nooo, he has already misled you as well." Sanji cried out with tears in his eyes and rushed at me again.
"HOW?!? HOW DO YOU DO THIS?!? ANSWER ME!!" He grabbed me by the vest and started shaking me.
After Sanji calmed down, we started working on making a ship for the Giants. Well, it was mostly Nojiko that did that work, while Dorry and Broggy were giving instructions.
It took a couple of hours, but Nojiko had created a giant dinghy. The vessel was sixty meters long and fifteen meters in width, but there was nothing else other than a sail and a cabin. The Giants requested for something simple and wanted to be able to row their boat.
While Nojiko was working on the dinghy, I created a clone and had him go to the Going Marry and pick up Xander. With his help, we were able to restore the armaments of the giants as well.
Dorry and Broggy seeing that their weapons are back in top condition decided to test them out by fighting each other. Despite having fought two times already today, they were full of energy again. Seeing them in action now, they were obviously holding back when they were fighting me, trying to preserve their weapons for as long as possible.
After the Giants had their fun, we returned to the Going Merry with everyone else. Zoro, Johnny, and Yosaku were training on the deck while watching over the captured Baroque Works agents.
Mr.3 is an average-sized man with a rather frail-looking build. He wears glasses and has neatly combed hair, with his topknot in the form of the number three. He was looking around as if trying to find a way to escape his predicament.
Miss Goldenweek, on the other hand, looked calm and collected. She has a childish appearance with relatively large eyes and circles of red on her cheeks. She is fairly short in stature and wears her dark red hair tied in braided pigtails.
"Miss All-Sunday! Help us escape, and we will deal with them together." Mr.3 yelled one he saw Robin with us, while Miss Goldenweek remained quiet.
"Hmm, I don't feel like it," Robin told him and made her way inside the ship.
"What do you mean?" Mr.3 asked her, but she ignored him.
"How do you want to deal with them, Captain?" Zoro asked me.
"I don't want to take them with us, but we can't leave them on this island as well," I told Zoro and started thinking about what to do with the two Baroque Works agents.
"Sight, I supposed we can take them with us for now, and I will watch over them." Taking them with us might cause us some problems, but I believe we would be able to deal with that.
I had to ask Xander to create a room out of iron, to use it as a prison cell. I told him not to make any locks since Mr.3 can create a key with his wax ability. Mr.5 should be able to blow it up with his Bomb-Bomb Devil Fruit, but it will cause a commotion, unlike Mr.3's Wax-Wax Fruit.
Johnny, Yosaku didn't manage to hunt something bigger than Zoro' Tyrannosaurus, but they had hunted a lot of different dinosaurs, so I will let it pass for now. While they were hunting, Mikita had also managed to find an undamaged Log Pose, that had already recorded the magnetic field of Little Garden. We don't really need it since Robin gave us an Eternal Pose, but it might be useful in the long run. Vivi was still wary of Robin but decided to trust my decision for now.
Despite the amount of food we gathered here, it won't last us until Alabasta for sure, due to our new giant companions. Thankfully, they went out and hunted a few large dinosaurs, and stored them on their boat.
With that left the island with Dorry and Brogy following behind us in their giant dinghy.
The Giants warned us about the giant goldfish that inhabits the waters near Little Garden. They call him Island Eater since it's massive size allows it to easily consume ships or even entire islands. The goldfish is so large that the feces it produces are considered as small islands.
Dorry and Broggy were extremely excited to test out their weapons on a larger creature but got disappointed once they one shot the Island Eater.
"I remember him as stronger, from a hundred years ago," Dorry pondered with a hand on his chin.
"Maybe we became stronger while we were here, Gabababa," Broggy responded.
We were traveling straight towards Alabasta since we had the Eternal Pose with us, and Nami was even using her Devil Fruit powers to help us gain speed. The situation there could get worse by the day, and we were trying to reach it as fast as possible.
I was glad that I had warned the crew of the dangers on Little Garden since no one was bitten and gotten sick. Unfortunately, that didn't seem to be the case since Vivi came running with bad news.
"Luffy, Miss All-Sunday, I mean Robin just lost consciousness and has an extreme fever of forty degrees." Vivi led me back to Robin's room, where Nojiko was tending to her. They told me how she suddenly collapsed with a fever that has been slowly increasing.
"Vivi, how long would it take us to reach Alabasta with this speed?" I asked the princess.
"With this speed, we should be there in about a week, but I'm not sure if she will make it," Vivi answered me with concern in her voice. After hearing that, I left the room and made my way to Nami.
"How long do you think it would take us to reach the island that the Log Pose is pointing to?" I asked her.
"Possibly a day with this speed, at maximum two. Why?" Nami answered.
"Change the course towards that direction. Robin is in a very bad condition and might not make it to Alabasta. We need to find her a doctor as soon as possible." I told her with concern.
"What about Alabasta?" Nami asked me.
"As soon as we treat Robin, we will make our way towards Alabasta, but I'm not going to let someone die on my ship when I can save them," I said to Nami and returned back to Robin's room to inform Vivi.
"I'm not happy with your decision, but you are the Captain of the ship. The only thing I beg of you is to reach Alabasta as soon as possible please." She told me with a pleading look.
"I promise you, as soon as we find Robin a doctor, we will sail towards Alabasta with top speed." Vivi nodded to me and returned to her room.
I wasn't happy with our current speed, and I was thinking of possible ways to increase it when an idea popped into mind. It has a low chance of working, but its better than nothing. Walking inside the lounge room, I found just the person I was looking for.
"Luffy why are you with Miss All-Sunday?" Vivi was visibly shocked at seeing her.
"Nice to see you as well princess." Robin greeted her with a smile, which caused Vivi to shudder.
"Her real name is Robin, and she will be joining the crew," I answered with a grin.
