TEDIOUS - ONE PIECE X READER PART ONE

"Eh-? How'd you know the color of his hair-?" the male had questioned. Shiruku hummed thoughtfully before replying.

"He has three scars on his face, Red haired Shanks, even I know of him. He's a legendary pirate. It's true, I haven't heard any bad rumors about him."

The young man picked up your drink causing you to scowl as he took a sip from it. "Oh, so he's well known? I want to become that kind of pirate as well." he'd comment, taking another swing from your glass.

Shiruku stood, her hand propped on her hip. "Y'know, I'm actually a pirate's child."

"Eh?"

"A pirate's abandoned child actually." she corrected. Your friend then explained, you staying quiet as you already knew of what'd happened. "Then (y/n) here arrived on a small boat all alone. The villagers nearly shunned them away."

"Oh." the male hummed nonchalantly as he finished off your drink.

"Oi! Do you understand?! I don't wanna see (y/n) or the villagers with sad faces!" Shiruku bellowed, pulling you to her side. "Because they are treasured people to me. Even if I'm alone, I'll fight. There were pirates on that ship right?!"

As your friend continued blabbering, you watched as the male wandered over to the front counter and thanked the manager for the food. "Listen to me dammit!" Shiruku cursed, finally noticing.

Shiruku pulled you along as she and the male went to stand outside the building. "Gyari?" the male'd inquired.

Shiruku nodded. "Yeah."

"Who's that? What a weird name." the male cluelessly commented as you nodded in agreement.

Shiruku's brows furrowed in concern as she pointed at the boy, "Was he really not there? Isn't he the captain of the ship you came in on?"

You sensed a presence nearby as you directed your attention towards it. The presence had belonged to a male with a weird looking mustache, him and his men striding over as he fumed in anger. "I won't forgive you, you insect gathering bastard!! The man who can make even a crying child shut up, Gyari, is me!!" the male had screeched. He and his men seemed to be overestimating themselves. He wasn't a devil fruit user.

He and his subordinates held no special abilities, the straw hat man on the other hand you'd noticed.....

"Eh....Gyari?!" Shiruku had exclaimed, pulling you to hide behind her stature. Why was she surprised?

"Ah. He did say his name didn't he..." the straw hat man you'd been speaking with commented, sweat dropping.

"Crescent Moon Gyari?!" Shiruku yelped. Why were they yelling? You tiredly rubbed your ears.

"That's correct, little girl!! Are you scared?!" Gyari cockily hollered, "Ah, hold on! After I kill this guy, I'll help myself to all the treasure in this town!"

Shiruku irked, abruptly facing the straw hat male who was busy observing your irritated reactions. "What were you saying?! He's right here!!"

"Oh... You were talking about him....He's here." the male had dazedly replied, glancing at Gyari.

Shiruku seethed, "I can see that!!" she patted your shoulder in an attempt to sooth you before continuing. "Just what did you do to them? They're so angry!"

The male squinted. "They came attacking me first. That weird mustache..."

Gyari boiled in rage, pointing forward. "Go!! Slice him apart!!"

Shiruku stepped forward, "You cowards! Attacking an unarmed opponent-"

The tall lanky male gently nudged her back, "It's fine. I don't use a weapon. Stand back for a sec." he'd chirped.
