You and Luffy were rival pirates, meaning you'd have to fight at one point. You'd only seen him in posters.. Never in person. Sure, he wasn't ugly, but you couldn't like him. He's the enemy!

Then why does he have to be so damn handsome? You ask yourself this as he walks past you, not realizing your there. So you make the first attack, which he seemed to have assumed, blocking it.

"Sneaky!" He laughed. That laugh felt so warm.. No! Just fight him, god damn it!
