Chapter 51: A Couple

Dina & Robin have decided to join the Clown pirates temporarily until they reach the safe place that Buggy promised them.

"Captain, who-"-Cricket

"I'll explain it later, we need to leave now before Marine or Cipher Pol agents come."-Buggy

"Hmm, alright."-Cricket

The Clown Pirates leave the island and sail away to the sea. When they get far from the island, Buggy introduces Robin & Dina to everyone except Mantis who cook in the kitchen because it's almost lunch.

"Ooh, so this is Nico Robin, the girl who has a higher bounty than you. Hehe, you should be ashamed Captain, you lose to this little girl."-Cricket

"Hey, at least I have a bounty, unlike you."-Buggy

"T-that's-"-Cricket is at loss for words and slump down, dejected

"But will it be okay for them to join us exploring West Blue? It will be really dangerous."-Jude

"Don't worry, we can protect ourselves at least, as long as the enemy isn't someone like your Captain."-Dina

"You know Captain's strength?"-Jude

"Yes, Robin tried her ability on him before, but he doesn't move even a little. Robin has defeated some rather strong men in the past with that technique, and everyone was affected. Even when some people weren't defeated by that, they'll at least move. He, on the other hand, doesn't even move, so he is very strong."-Dina nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.

"Heh, can you try that technique on me?"-Cricket

"W-why'd you want to try it?"-Robin is still shy

"To see how far the difference of mine & Captain's power."-Cricket

Robin looks at Dina and Dina looks at Buggy, then Buggy looks at Cricket, and Cricket looks at Jude.

"E-eh? Eh? Wh-What?"-Jude is looking around, confused, and making the others laugh

"Sure, let him try."-Buggy

Dina nod to Robin, so Robin uses the same technique on Cricket. Many small hands appear on Cricket's body, then the small hands bend his body back.

"Eh?"-Cricket

Cricket bends to his back like a prawn, and he falls to the floor. He doesn't break his back though and only gets bent.

"OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! This is more painful than I thought."-Cricket

"You're not flexible enough to endure that level of back bending."-Buggy smirk

Mantis plop on the floor defeated too like Cricket. The others get out of the room and leave Cricket & Mantis there.

Jude runs off to the front deck, she wants to train and clear her mind. Buggy takes Dina & Robin to tour around the ship so they'll know the rooms.

Meanwhile, Cricket & Mantis are sitting face to face, but they don't say anything for a while. Their faces are dead and their eyes are dull.

"Did you know that he know it?"-Mantis said with a dead voice

"No, he just said it some minutes ago."-Cricket

"Sigh, it will be awkward with them now."-Mantis

"..... I think we need to be open with them and tell the truth. Captain must've said it because he's disappointed that we didn't even tell him anything. It's not like we do something wrong, he just wants us to be honest with the crew."-Cricket

"..... Sigh, I think you're right. Let's tell them at dinner."-Mantis

Cricket & Mantis agree, then they stand up and do what they need to do. Mantis wash the kitchenware, while Cricket moves his stuff to the new room. Then at dinner, they finally speak to everyone.

"Well, we'll be honest and announce this to you all."-Cricket

"Cricket & I are dating. We start it after the North Pole exploration. Sorry for not saying anything, especially you, Captain."-Mantis

""*clap clap clap* Congratulation.""-Everyone

"I'm not really bothered by it. I just want you guys to be more open with your relationship, so you'll be more comfortable in your activities."-Buggy

Buggy's reason for making the new couple publicizes their relationship is so that the others can help them if something happens. A relationship isn't a straight way, so there will be some troubles in the future.

If no one knows about it, they won't be able to help the couple. Furthermore, they're in the same crew, so the effect will be more dangerous. And as pirates, a little problem with their feeling can cost them their life.

"Anyway, this is worth a celebration, so LET'S HAVE A PARTY!"-Buggy

""YEAH!""-Everyone

Everyone then has a party for the new couple. This is a good day for every one of them.
