8 8: Little Garden

" hey can you guys untie me already? i'm getting sore just sitting in one spot all the time."

alex asked the crew as they were sailing towards little garden

"oh sure Zoro untie him."

luffy replied while looking for zoro.

"OYE! i'm a girl you know!"

"oh sorry. shishishishi."

luffy replied with a laugh. After getting untied alex went over to the railing to see what usopp was doing.

"what you going sitting in the rail? aren't you afraid on falling into the water?

alex asked as she sat next to usopp.

"i'm waiting for sanji to bring the fish bait so me and luffy can fish"

sanji then comes over with an empty bucket asking what happened to the bait, luffy who was next to him say he ate it as he picked the final worm out of the bucket before munching on it.

"you can eat that, what are we supposed to use for fish now!"

usopp and sanji yelled at him

"well we can just use the duck can't we?"

luffy asked before they started chasing it around the deck while nami explains to vivi and alex about luffy's past and all that he has achieved so far.

"oh so he's actually pretty strong huh?"

alex asked while looking at luffy

'hmmm maybe i should join his crew, i'd be able to eat and steal as much as i want! it also sounds like it will be a thrilling!'

"alright it's decided! Luffy let me join your crew!"

"hmm? Okay"

'so easy?'

thought alex

"eehhh?!"

thought the crew as they faceplant from how easily he agreed.

"you can't just say yes! we don't know if she's trustworthy or not!"

screamed nami with shark teeth while punching luffy into the deck

"what's the problem? she has been travelling with use for a while now?"

"yea but she's been tied up this whole time, that's the only reason she has been with use!"

"that reminds me, why has she been tied up?"

luffy asked while scratching his head

"because sanji stole my fish!"

"because she stole my fish"

"what did you say!"

both ended up locking heads and screaming at each other by the end of the short explanation.

"i'm surprised sanji isn't fawning over her already."

Zoro remodels with a smirk

"oh so they stole a fish from each other, well it's fine then she can join as long as she catches him another fish."

luffy exclaims while dragging alex to the rail to fish with him.

"Thank you for letting me join captain! I guess i'll introduce myself now that i'm no longer a prisoner hehe"

" my name is Alex D Cara! Im 16 and it's my dream to try food from everywhere, my skills are stealing, intel gathering, disguise, escaping, and distracting. im good at hand to hand combat and knife fighting. i like beri, food, doing thrilling stuff, sleep, and cute stuff nice to meet you."

alex says before bowing before the crew

"nice to meet you"

they replied with a smile.

after fishing with luffy and usop for a bit alex went and had a nap saying

"wake me when we get to the next island please"

"ok"

upon arriving at little garden Alex, zoro and sanji got into a fight about who could catch the biggest animal case using them to rush into the forest leaving the rest of the crew behind.

'should've got sanji to make me a snack before we did this bet'

alex thought while her stomach grumbled. walking thought while forest alex has came across a number of animals ranging from a sabre tooth to a t-rex.

'they all looks so good'

alex thought with drool running down her chin.

'but none of them are the winners i need the biggest on the island to be the winner'

alex thought while walking though the forest until she came across a giant monster with a super long neck

'that is gonna make me a winner for sure!'

alex thought while quickly climbing up the back of the dinosaur until she was in it head, pulling back her hand she punched the behemoth in the eye causing it to explode in white liquid and blood, showering alex in the mixture of the two. The dinosaur who received her punch ended up dying from the extreme force used in the blow causing it to fall, with alex using it as a ride to the ground.

'looks like i'm gonna be the winner this time! hehe'

alex started to drag the dinosaur towards the ship while marvelling at how easy it is to drag the dinosaur

'i didn't think i was this strong to be able to move this thing so easily, i feel as if i can carry this thing with one hand if i wanted'

after arriving at the ship i see Zoro who is carrying a triceratops looking smug

"hey alex looks like i win this one he says while showing the triceratops."

" as if you stupid moss head! clearly i won"

said sanji who comes out of the forest carrying a t-rex

"both you guys lose i'm clearly the winner this time!"

alex says while dragging the rest of the long neck out of the forest

"gah" "gah"

both sanji and zoro exclaim at the same time upon seeing the size of the dinosaur.

"ugh, fine you win this time"

"let's go looks for luffy, he's probably found something fun to do by now."

alex said as her zoro and sanji went back into the forest

*bang!!!*

"what was that?!"

they exclaimed before rushes toward the direction the noise came from. Reaching the scene they see two giants fighting each other while luffy, vivi, nami, and usopp watch from opposite sides of each other.

"nami swan what are you doing over here by yourself?"

sanji asked while rushing over with heart eyes

" hey luffy are they enemies?"

zoro asked with his hands on his swords.

"of course not this is Dorry and Broggy warriors of elbaf. they are my friends for now"
