I 'll admit it because I 'm man enough to; getting to sit back with Camie, Hachi and Pappag and watch as the boys blow off steam by kicking in the teeth of the bounty hunting assholes who were following us is actually great.

I mean, I haven 't gotten to fight anything in fucking forever, and I 'm itching to start using my guns for something other than loaned training material for Zoro (which really does work out well for me, since it means the dials are fully charged), but I guess the break is ' nice.

I literally just get to chill on the donut bubble thingy and point out all the weirdos I 've clocked as we slowly but surely make our way to our destination. I pay extra close attention as we move further inland into the lawless zones, tuning out my friend 's chatter until we finally arrive at Grove 13.

'That 's it up on that big root. It 's been about ten years, I wonder if he 's still running the shop, ' Hachi comments.
