As Luffy ordered, the srto hat gang left the island. It was a sunny morning. It had been two days since they left the island. But Zorro's condition showed no change. He still hadn't woken up. The crew was worried about him. Almost no one said a word in those days. Nobody wanted to believe that Zorro sacrificed himself for them and almost lost his life in the process. Sanji, who was not doing as badly as the others, because he knows how strong Zorro is, encouraged the crew. When he called them to eat, he tried to talk to them.
“Now finally stop pulling such a face. Zorro will do it, he's tough. ", Sanji tried to convince them.
Nobody said a word, except for Nami: “It's easy for you to talk. Zorro sacrificed himself for us and almost lost his life. How can you just keep calm there?
Sanji sat down at the table and said: “I'm so calm because I trust Zorro. He knew what he was doing. And I know that Zorro is very strong, he doesn't give up the spoon that quickly. You have to trust him too. He will make it."
“Sanji has right friends, we mustn't give up hope. Zorro will definitely be better soon. Thanks Sanji. ", said Luffy, who immediately pounced on the food like mad.
The others just shook their heads and started to eat too.
Suddenly the door to the kitchen opened and Zorro stepped inside.
"ZORRO", everyone shouted and rushed at him. Zorro, who only looked a little confused, then asked: "What's the matter with you, just because I was injured once you don't have to make such a fuss."
,, Injured? Zorro you almost died. "said Chopper with tears in his eyes.
"But thanks to you, I'm fine again," said Zorro and sat down in his place. The others did the same, only Luffy remained standing.
,, Hey Luffy what's up? ", asked Zorro.
,, Why did you do that?Why did you sacrifice yourself for us? ", Luffy asked in a serious voice.
Zorro looked even more confused than before and replied: “Why? because you are my friends. And I will not allow anything to be done to you. I would rather die before than when I see you dying. What else could I have done but enter into the pact? Should I have taken the risk of putting you in danger? Should I have let you die? I couldnt do that. You are everything I still have in my life. You are not only my friends but also my family. If I don't have you anymore, I have nothing at all. You would have done the same, Luffy. I think any of you would have done it that way. "
Zorro said nothing more and went outside. Nobody said a word. Until Usopp spoke up: "I didn't even know that we meant so much to Zorro."
Nobody had really listened to Usopp, all just looked outside at Zorro, who was sleeping on the mast as usual. As if nothing happened.
“But how should it go on now, Luffy? "asked Robin.
Luffy, who now looked at them with a smile, said: “We will continue to experience adventures and take care of Zorro. And when these shadows come, we kick them to heaven. "
Everyone agreed, and they found their favorite pastimes again.
