Y/n squint her eyes to see who it is, moments later she recognizes the golden hook.

"Oh, it's you. . ." Y/n said and lay back again.

Moments of silence had past, when Y/n realize who it is, she sit up and look at the man again in surprised.

"C-CROCODILE????!!!" Y/n shouted.

"Took you long enough. . ." Crocodile uses his powers and went to Y/n and sit next to her up in the tree.

"The heck are you doing here?" Y/n asked trying to distance her self from him.

"Is that how you greet your Father?" Crocodile said inhaling his smoke.

"My Father died years ago, I don't plan replacing him-" Y/n said and slap crocodile's smoke.

Crocodile just watched his smoke fall, then he look at Y/n.

"I hated it when you smoke in front of me" Y/n said

"You didn't change at all, you still care for me" Crocodile laugh.

"Lucky for you I can remember my memories with you. . . If not I should have fight you now. . ." Y/n said.

"Mmmmm. . ." Crocodile hums.

"The only thing I can't remember are the memories 2 years ago. . . How I met the strawhat pirates. . ." Y/n explain to Crocodile.

Crocodile was silent to Y/n explanation he didn't know what to do.

"Come to my mansion" Crocodile offer his hand.

"Mansion?" Y/n asked but she took Crocodile's hand.

Crocodile uses his power to go down the tree, and go to his mansion.

They arrived in front of the mansion and Y/n couldn't react at how big it is.

"You have a mansion in the middle of the forest?" Y/n asked

"Yes." Crocodile look at Y/n.

"A MANSION in this freaking Forest?" Y/n repeat

". . ." Crocodile just stared at Y/n

"There's a town not far from here. . . I got this mansion here so no one can bother or find me. . . Specially the Marines. . ." Crocodile explained.

"Find you? With this kind of MANSION?!- you know what I'm not gonna say anything more-" Y/n massage her head.

Crocodile laughed and went inside, Y/n followed him and they went to his office.

"So you're all alone here?" Y/n asked sittin to the couch.

Crocodile sat on his office chair and started writing something.

"Mr. 1 is in here, the maids are here. . ." Crocodile said.

*Meow*

Y/n heard a cat, so she looks where It is coming from. Then moments later the cat went up to Crocodile's head.

". . ." Crocodile went silent while Y/n looks at him with a cat above his head.

"Wow didn't know you're a cat person. . ." Y/n giggled, then she went closer to Crocodile and remove the cat on his head.

"I'm not. . ." Crocodile said

Crocodile watched Y/n took the cat and sat on the couch again.

Crocodile observe Y/n playing with the cat, he look at her head to toe then he smiles. Y/n noticed this and she looks at Crocodile wondering why he is smiling.

"What?" Y/n asked.

"Nothing. . . I just can't believe you grew up and you become a fine lady. . ." Crocodile smiles.

"You also talk more. . . And I can tell you become stronger than before" Crocodile added.

"T-Thanks. . ." Y/n said and contine to play with the cat.

Crocodile POV

Just looking at her. . . She made a lot of improvement to herself. . . I wonder how did she manage to be on her own. . .

"Have you eaten yet?" I asked her.

"No. . . I'm not hungry-" she said.

I used my powers to lift her up.

"H-Hey! Put me down!" She struggles

"Why don't we eat and catch up? It's been awhile the last time I saw you. . ." I told her and call the maids to prepare some snacks in the garden.

Y/n stopped struggling and look at me.

"Get to the point. . . I know you want something from me" she said.

We arrived at the garden so I stopped and put her down gently.

"I don't need something from you, I just want to spend some time with you. . ." I said sitting on a chair in the garden.

"Tell me. . . What are you doing after all this years?" I asked.

"It's non of your concern-" she said.

Then she sat on a chair looking at the cookies the maids brought.

"All I can say, I went through a lot. . . And now I'm with Luffy and Law. . ." She said while she get some cookies.

"Straw hat?" I asked.

"You are with the Strawhats now??" It surprised me.

"Yes. . ." She answered.

Moments later I felt someone behind me. In a blink of an eye I saw a sword ready to cut me in the neck.

Y/n suddenly went in front of me and blocked the attack with her scyth, Even if the sword cut me it won't hurt me. . . I could turn my body into sand.

When Y/n stopped the attack the man that about to slice my neck was surprised.

"Y-Y/n?!" The man jump back, he locks his eyes into mine.

"Zoro. . ." Y/n called.

"Why are you protecting this man?. . ." Zoro asked.

Y/n put her scyth back in her waist and sigh.

"Its okay. . . He won't hurt me. . ."

Zoro stare at me and Y/n. . . He sigh and and withdraw his sword.

"Why are you with Crocodile?" Zoro asked to Y/n.

"Zoro. . . He-. . . He is my adoptive Father. . ."Y/n said coldly.

I'm surprised that she said that-

I look at the green haired man, his eyes can't believe what Y/n just said. . . This made me smirk.

"Hello, Roronoa Zoro" I said smiling and holding Y/n at her shoulders.
