Does it hurt?
Trafalgar Law frowned at the lizard creature in his hand. It had actually snapped its front paws crossed over its scaly chest and looked at him with a mixture of defiance and anger.
"Would you be so kind as to let me down again?" Hissed the green-brown iguana, annoyed.
"The time has come, I can hear lizards talking.", Said Penguin, who like his comrades came closer to his captain to take a closer look at the creature.
Annoyed by the whole situation, the iguana let its limbs hang again and remained so in the hand of Law, who was still holding him by the neck.
"Do I speak another language?" Asked the iguana, now slightly irritated. "I want to get back down! I bite !!"
Law looked at the reptile in disbelief. Where would we go if he was already taking orders from lizards?
"What was your name?", Law asked, grinning mischievously.
An understanding grin spread across the iguan's face and he shook his scaly head.
"No, no, my dear. I know the game.", Replied the lizard and threateningly raised one forefoot.
"Well, all the better. Living beings without a name are easier to prepare.", He said soberly and instructed his people to go back on board.
"How? Prepare?", The animal now asked meekly. Then it made CLICK on the iguana.
"Wait a minute! I'm tough and pretty much inedible !!", it said nervously and tried to get out of hand.
"My cook is creative about that."
"You can't really want to eat such a small animal like me, can you?", Said the green-brown pangolin and looked at him pleadingly with his yellow eyes.
"Small?" Said Penguin and Casquette as if from one mouth.
"If he grows up a bit, he could feed the crew for a week," said Jean Bart soberly and carried the other loot.
Now it was very different for the iguana.
"You really consider plastering me? I'm just scales and bones."
"You can also cook dandruff," Law said with a mean grin.
"You should choke on me, BASTARD !!", the iguana snapped again and kicked so wildly that he got enough momentum to cling to Law's arm with all fours. He quickly wrapped his long lizard tail around his forearm and held on.
"What's this going to be?" Law asked, less impressed. But then the iguana bit his hand. More surprised than hurt, Law flinched reflexively and opened his hand. The iguana then fell to the ground where it quickly tried to crawl into the undergrowth, but then he had done the math without the captain of the Heart pirates. Angry at the bite wound, which was bleeding slightly, Law took a small step and stepped on the lizard's long, thin tail with his foot.
"BUMPER !!! GET DOWN OF ME !!!", the lizard yelled at him.
"You cheeky little thing really bit.", He said and inspected the bite wound.
"I said I would bite," she replied and stuck her tongue out at him. "Does it hurt? I hope it hurts!"
Law leaned down menacingly to the pangolin and gripped it more firmly and more firmly by the neck.
"Captain, let him go," said Casquette. "Jean, has killed something and the others must have found something too."
"That's not the point.", Her captain growled and held the iguana at eye level.He looked at him mockingly and had his arms crossed over his chest again.
"Resentful?" The lizard asked dryly and it seemed as if it raised an eyebrow. "So? Do you still want to eat me, or have you lost your appetite?"
Instead of answering, Law took a deep breath and swallowed any comment.
"Back to the ship," he growled angrily and his people followed him.
When they got to the yellow submarine-like ship, the iguana, which was quiet for the time, started kicking and swearing again.
"Man, what do you want that from me ?! Just let me walk again !!"
Once in his cabin, Law put the iguana in a large glass jar.
"Hey !!", he shouted angry when he wanted to climb out but slipped on the smooth surface. "That's unfair, I won't put you in a glass case either!"
"You're not an ordinary iguana, are you?" Law said matter-of-factly and sat down on a chair in front of the terrarium, the chair turned the wrong way round so that he could put his arms crossed on the backrest. He eyed the iguana critically.
"And you are not a normal person. So now it is over, we are all strange creatures.", Replied the lizard and looked around for a possibility of escape.
Law's gaze grew serious.
"What kind of island is that?"
The iguana looked at him in surprise.
"How, you've never heard of this island?" He asked puzzled.
"No should I?"
"This is" Green Little Paradise "."
"I beg your pardon? Oh nonsense ... that would mean ..."
The lizard looked at him with a smile.
"So what?"
"This is impossible THE green island. It is a myth, part of a story that is told to young children and old people to keep them happy."
The iguana grinned ominously.
"Well ... you know the island after all."
