Rating: T

Note:  In honor of Chopper finally appearing at OPLA Season 2. I can’t resist a Zoro x Nami x Chopper moment. This however doesn’t follow the live action so if you are looking for something in that universe, I have to disappoint you.

Think Skypiea. Remember when Nami was calling out to Chopper when they went back to the Merry after exploring the Upper Yard and Chopper wouldn’t come out no matter how many times she called? Then Zoro stepped up and just after a few shouts Chopper immediately responded? Nothing much. It just lives rent free in my head.

Summary: Chopper let out a soft giggle even as he tried to cover his eyes. His ears twitched with excitement and apparent delight.

That’s…very good news. 

I'm just a bit worried about ZoNa. The fact that it got quite an attention that the producers had to talk about it. I hope they won't do something forced/tone it down. I read somewhere that pre-timeskip ZoNa was really popular in Japan as well so it was kinda tone down cause "there is no romance among the crew" 🥹

Rated M for smut. 🫡

Summary: Nami after an tiring day at work decides to take a shortcut home, to unfortunately be harassed by drunk strangers, but it seems fate also sent her a scary looking hero.

Note: all grammar and spelling errors are mine. I have no beta-reader.

She was making her way home from working at her family's bakery wearing a white top, blue jeans that had a smudge of baking powder on it from working, and a pair of high heels. smiling from ear to ear thinking of all the money she made today.

The red haired young women really out did herself this time. It was rather risky to go through this part of town at night, but it's much faster way she thought.

After the exhausting day she had she really didn't care up, until 3 shady looking men wearing casual clothes and matching yellow bandanas around their necks approached her, popping out of the dark alley.

She looked at her surroundings shifting her gaze to the left and right, but to no avail. The street was empty no cars driving on the road, and all the shops around were closed.

The tallest man of the group called out to Nami as he got closer, and asked "If she was looking for a good time?"

She noted they reeked of alcohol, she answered politely "Excuse me, I'm not interested goodnight."

Nami tried walking past them with haste, but before she could a hand gripped her arm tightly. She stiffened at the feeling and looked back with a concerned expression to see the drunk man with a smug smile "Why are you playing hard to get? Don't you know who we are?" The tall man said in a rather cooky tone.

Nami's concerned expression changed into a vicious glare. She answered the man coldly "I don't know, and don't care. Don't touch me!" She said more loudly voice full of anger.

She shook her hand to force him to let go of her, the tall man's smile dropped. He tightened his grip on her hand, and the other two got closer almost yelling at her "You bitch! you cant disrespect our boss like that."

The one he called boss decided to speak again growling "I'll show you what happens when girls like you don't know their place!" letting her go, and raising his hand to hit her.

The instant she felt him let go, she wasted no time quickly spinning around kicking the bastard's boss right between his legs, before he could do anything he fell to the ground moaning in pain.

Seeing her chance she bolted out of there yelling "Serves you right, JACK ASS!"

Unfortunately bastard's companions started chasing after her she looked back, and thought to herself "this is bad! I cant take all of them on my own. I have to find a crowded area."

'I cant run forever.' She breathed more heavily looking back as she heard their boss screaming, as he started running after her "you're going to wish you were never born once we get you!" Shifting her gaze forward seeking help.

Nami ignoring the pain caused by her heels focused all her efforts on running away. She felt the the two men getting closer to her, she started getting more tired.

She looked back once more only to bump into something hard not knowing what it was, she looked forward again to see a man with green-hair wearing a black kendo gi.

She was slightly frightened from the scar on his left eye, and his scary looking face. The man spoke with surprisingly soft voice, and asked her "Is something wrong , miss?" As he looked her up and down, noticed that she was breathing heavily, and to be running with high heels might be a reason to be concerned.

‏

He shifted his gaze to the three men that fallowed behind her. Nami finally caught her breath, and answered him "Help me ple-" the boss of the group pushed her to the side cutting her off. She fell to her knees, feeling too tired to get up. The gang leader faced the green haired man.

Speaking in a angry tone "Don't get involved in this! Unless you want to to die punk." The male responded with a smirk, and announced in a confident voice "My name is Zoro. If you really want to harm this women, then you better be prepared to face the consequences."

The boss face turned full of hate, as he swung at Zoro catching his fist easily before headbutting the tall man, causing their boss to feel dazed Zoro continued giving him a punch to the face knocking him out. Thier boss dropped like a sack of potatoes.

Nami simply looked at awe as Zoro stood there waiting for the other two to make their move.

"Boss!" The two cried out in sync before one of the men sent a a couple of curses his way, and began getting closer to attack whilst the other lost most of his nerve once he saw his boss fall.

"I wouldn't recommend doing that" Zoro said in a stern tone his smirk changing to a serious expression.

One of the henchmen punched Zoro in the stomach, Nami started worrying that things might take a bad turn. Thinking her hardest what can she do to help considering the option of grabbing him, and running away.

Her line of thought got cut off, when she heard Zoro speak in much colder voice "‏Was that all you had?" Zoro asked the guy who punched him.

Both Zoro's voice and the fact he stood unaffected by the blow gave him, the attacker started to get anxious backing away.

Before he could take another step back. Zoro grabbed his head, and slammed it against a brick wall most likely giving him a concussion, before he fell as well.

The last one of the trio that harassed Nami left stood terrified of what he just witnessed. He quickly pulled a knife from his pocket, and yelled at Zoro running at him "Don't mess with me!" Nami screamed "Watch out!" Zoro simply smirked at Nami, and returned a fierce glare to the man running at him.

Dodging his attack grabbing the wrist holding the knife putting pressure on it, while placing his second hand on his elbow pushing it forward right on the edge of breaking his arm. The pain caused him to fall to one knee, before he could break his arm. Zoro decided to shove him against the wall forcing him to drop the knife. Not wanting the women beside them to see him do something so brutal Zoro growled "Get out of my sight."

Turning his back to face Nami. Once the last henchmen Zoro turned his back on him attempted to grab the knife. The moment Nami saw the henchmen go for the knife decided that she no longer wanted to be the victim, and got up quickly and lunched powerful upper cut hitting third gang member straight in the jaw.

The hit completely threw him off hurting like hell. It was Zoro's turn to be awed by her, seeing the seemingly defenceless women end up saving him. The henchmen started running away screaming in pain "These people are crazy, I'm out of here!" ‏

The second man to attack Zoro weakly followed shortly picking up his boss, and running yelling in fear "Wait for us!" the pair watched the scene unfold before them quietly.

Zoro turned his gaze to her asking her "Are you hurt?" Nami shifted her attention from the running trio to the one who helped her "I'm okay, thanks to you." giving him a bright smile.

Zoro grabbed her hand and brushed his thumb over her knuckles, that reddened from the upper cut she gave "You should put an ice bag over this, when you get home." Nami blushed slightly at his touch, and Zoro blushed as well after realizing what he did.

He let go of her scratching the back of his head, before saying "Sorry about that" and started walking away from her.

He suddenly felt a warm hand grabbing his own, he turned back to see red headed women a bit flushed as she said shyly "I know it might be a lot to ask especially after you saved me, but would you mind walking me home?"

Zoro smiled at her and nodded "I don't mind at all, don't forget you saved me as well. Thank you for that, you can handle yourself quite well." Nami giggled at his words and lead him towards her home.

She asked letting go of his hand"So, Zoro right? I'm Nami thanks again." Zoro simply said "Yeah, Its nice to meet you Nami, also don't worry about it."

Nami then studied his attire, and face thinking his face wasn't so scary anymore and rather ruggedly handsome she blushed at the thought. In order to push through her embarrassment she asked "So what do you practice? Zoro looked forward ignoring the cute blush she had on her face and spoke "I practice kendo in Mihawk's dojo, I plan on winning the world championship."

Nami responded softly "you're really ambitious, ill be rooting for you." Zoro's lips tugged upwards at that.

He glanced at her noticing a bit of white powder on her pants staring slightly "What do you usually do when you're not in need of saving?" Zoro asked teasingly.

Nami fallowed his gaze noticing the baking powder on her pants she began wiping it off, before answering him "Well, I work at my families bakery. and save overconfident fools like you from getting stabbed." She said mockingly he frowned at her "I just let my guard down" he answered slightly irritated

"Hmm... maybe you got distracted by my beauty" Nami exclaimed proudly Zoro stared at her face responding with a more serious tone then before "You're right, once I felt the danger pass I allowed myself to admire those gorgeous eyes of yours" Nami blushed after hearing him say that.

His seriousness faded and a smug smile adorned his face "Ha your face is completely red, that's what you get for teasing me" Zoro said in a childish manner, and began to laughing. Nami started pouting punching his shoulder lightly "Jerk."

They both looked at each other, and laughed afterwards they walked in silence it wasn't awkward just a comforting silence, enjoying this walk till they reached their destination. Nami walked ahead of him stopping in front of a building

"I guess this is where we say goodnight, thanks for walking me all the way here." she said with a smile

He returned a smile to her and said "I hope we meet again Nami, goodbye." He turned around to walk to just to be stopped once he heard her say "Hey wait a minute, I still need to thank you properly."

Zoro responded "You really don't have to, were basically even." Nami retorted against him "But I want to, and I will. come by my bakery, I'll make you a desert on the house." She pouted again Zoro then laughed at her answer.

Irradiated and embarrassed, she continued "It's right in the middle of town called sweet treasure."

Zoro responded "Guess I don't really have a choice , but I'm not really a fan of sweets."

She answered confidently winking at him "That's because you haven't tasted my special tangerine flavoured cake."

Giving a small smile "I'll be sure to visit." he said.

Nami started opening the door to her building, and before she entered looked at Zoro one last time and said "Goodnight Zoro."

as he started walking home, he replied "Goodnight Nami, Im looking froward to that dessert."

After they bid farewell to each other Nami entered her apartment and Zoro was making his way home they both thought happily "I cant wait for tomorrow."

zoro spanks nami when she is being too much of a brat.

they occasionally play drinking games that also somehow involve s!ripping.

nami has a praise k*nk (mommy issues), but zoro won't give her what she wants too easily as likes to play a strict role.

their first time was weird/awkward (but hot) bc they got there by hesitantly agreeing to 3/some after their common fwb (either sanji or luffy) wouldn't stop suggesting it.

nami cries after s*x you know it makes sense.

nami bosses zoro around and zoro is low-key really into it.

zoro is more experienced than nami.
