"That's your plan?" Nami asked as she glanced behind her making sure that the marines were really gone before turning back to him. "Storming into Axe-hand Morgan's office and asking him to give you the map?" She asked.

"Not exactly." Luffy spoke. "I will have to fight him for it. Why do they even call him axe-hand anyways?" He asked curiously.

"That's what you're thinking about? You are going to get us both caught if you keep stomping about the place." She huffed. Unsure of what she could have done to be stuck with someone like him. Finding him a bit annoying. "We need a plan."

She knew that if he continued with how he was acting that he would ruin the work she had already put into her plan of getting to the map. Stopping in her tracks when she came face to face with the person who's office they were looking for.

Luffy stopped in his tracks as well. Glancing at Morgan before his eyes trailed to his hand. A small realization came to mind as he got his answer to his previous question to why he was called Axe-hand Morgan.

Nami felt like they were doomed. Coming face to face with the commander of the maries. Facing Captain Morgan was something she did not intend for. Doing her best to keep up the marine act on her end. Hoping Luffy wouldn't open his mouth and spoil their next move.

On the other side of the base, Helmeppo glanced at his portrait with a white katana, the Wado Ichimonji, that had been taken away from Zoro's possession along with his two other swords. Moving away from the painting as he moved to his mirror. Being completely naked as he didn't take any mind to that small fact. Taking the katana out as he stood infront of his mirror.

Modeling with the katana before playing around with it as if he was attacking something. Slashing the air of his room before being surprised by the door of his room being kicked wide open. His hand moved to immediately grab the closest thing he could get.

A teddy bear. He had landed on the stuffed teddy bear from on top of his drawer. Using it as the only thing that could cover his front side. Glancing at who had entered without his permission.

Zoro stood at the doorway behind Venus. Glancing the blonde in the eyes as he noticed the guy's situation and how he barely had anything covering him. Raising his hand as he reached behind himself to cover her eyes. "Don't look at him right now."

Venus felt his hand over her eyes. "You know, jealousy is a good look on you. You keep making me earn points. That makes it three for me. Lucky for you I really don't want to see him any other way. I'll be waiting out here. Mind grabbing my katana for me?" She asked.

Zoro listened before giving her a small yes and kept his hand over her eyes. Lifting her up with ease by the waist before setting her outside. Moving his hand away. "I won't take long."

"I know you won't." Venus spoke softly. "Now get in there and do what you have to do." She patted his shoulder as he nodded and walked back into the room.

Zoro walked down the steps as he menacingly approached Helmeppo. He knew how scared the guy could get with him just being there and didn't have to do much.

"Are you going to kill me?" Helmeppo asked. Cowering back from the green haired guy in front of him. Feeling the katana being taken from his hands.

"No." Zoro spoke simply. "I have something much worse in mind." Closing the distance as he got to his plan.

Venus lightly played with her sleeve as she had been waiting for some time now. Moving away from the wall and closer to the  doorway. Trying to peek inside to see if he was almost done.

"I told you not to peek." Zoro spoke up as he didn't have to look over to know what she was doing.

"It's boring out here." Venus replied as she huffed.

"Out." Zoro spoke as he stopped what he was doing. Throwing the guy his clothes and letting him get dressed. Once he was done he walked over to the door. Grabbing her arm lightly as he was careful with her before leading her to the bed and having her sit.

"Sooo, what were you doing to him?" Venus asked as she smiled.

"Making his life miserable with a very much needed haircut." Zoro spoke as he continued where he had left off. Cutting the rest of the hair as it was all uneven and choppy.

Venus watched as she covered her mouth. Glancing away as she had tried to hold in her laughter for as long as she could. "O-okay I think we got him. Let's go." She spoke as she got off the bed. Grabbing Zoro's hand and leaving the room immediately. A small laugh leaving her when they were far enough from the room. She couldn't believe they had done such things to him as she loved it.

Zoro liked hearing her laugh as he had missed it. Holding their swords for them as he ran down the hall with her.
