One Piece (Love Story) [Part Two]

Chapter Two Hundred and One [Rewritten]

-Chapter Two Hundred and One-

"Awesome! You can tell what that thing is saying?" the man with the straw hat sparkled, amazed by the reindeer's supposed talent to understand the seahorse.

"This is weird...just where the hell am I...?" I nervously mumbled.

"Wait! It's a talking raccoon dog!" the long-nosed man cried out in shock.

"I'm a raccoon dog?" the reindeer quietly questioned.

"You...you don't even know what species you are?" I sweat dropped before I felt my gaze soften as the reindeer curiously peered up at me with wide curious eyes as if I could answer his question. "You're a reindeer..."I muttered, hastily averting my gaze as I blushed at how...cute...the animal was.

"A raccoon dog and a dragon and some random drowning dude? What's going on here?" a blond asked.

"Somehow, just looking at that thing is really pissing me off" the moss-haired man frowned as my blush darkened...he had a rather nice voice for someone so intimidating. "Where am I?" he asked.

"Whoa! Dragon—must ride!" the man with the straw hat excitedly shouted as I crept further and further away from the group. I backed away from them, no longer wishing to hang around here any more than I already had...I didn't know any of these people—I didn't know if they were good or bad...I didn't know if they would hurt me or not and that's what stressed me out the most.

"Are you crazy?" the long-nosed man frowned. "Besides, there's no way you can get up there!"

"You won't know unless I try" the man with the straw hat huffed.

"That's not how the saying goes..." I sweat dropped. "Hey, be careful" I worriedly frowned as I came to a halt, watching how the young man carelessly started to back up without looking before finally, he tripped over his own two feet and fell off the nearby cliff. "Wha..." my eyes widened in shock as I witnessed how his leg now stretched passed its normal capacity as he fell—his body instantly shooting back up into the air as it now rocketed toward the seahorse.

"What kind of freak is he?" the long-nosed man gawked.

"What's going on? My arms and legs can stretch!" the rubber man gaped, just as shocked as the rest of us as he hastily wrapped his arms around the seahorse before he could fall back to the ground. "This is fun!" he laughed, his shock quickly wearing off as he instantly became distracted by the fact that he was now up on top of the giant seahorse.

"Wow! He actually made it up there!" the long-nosed man exclaimed. "What's his body made of?" he asked.

"Uh...rubber...?" it was the only thing I could think of that could stretch like that.

"How?" he asked.

"I don't know—his mother was probably into some freaky shit" I shrugged, causing the long-nosed man to choke.

"He's a monster!" a woman with ginger hair cried out in shock as blue smoke started to pour out of the seahorse.

"Whoa! What's going on?" the man with the straw hat curiously asked as the seahorse started to aggressively buck around, causing him to squeeze it which in return made it release more blue smoke. "Stop bucking around!" he frowned, annoyed with the animal's unruly behavior.

"Looks like that Millennium Dragon is in some sort of pain" the long-nosed man remarked.

"Oh, that poor thing" I worriedly frowned.

"Let go! I'm losing the memories!" the reindeer translated for the enraged seahorse.

"Memories?" the moss-haired man questioned as the blue smoke leaking from the seahorse swirled around the rubber man.
