"But, since you are my friend and my first crewmate, I will tell you that my dream is...to complete my Bucket list!" Leo said with an earnest face.

Zoro with a complete confused face asked, "Hu! what is a bucket list,"

"Bucket list is my friend, a list of the experiences or dreams that I hopes to complete in this life," Leo patiently explained to Zoro.

"As for why a bucket list, because I have many big and small ambitions or goals as well, so too not say all of my dreams, I just called them my Bucket list and be done with it," Leo said with a smile while thinking about his dreams.

'After all who wouldn't want to fuck those character that they likes in anime, especially if you are in one piece world, because I am sure as hell wants to mount Robin and Yamato, but I can't just tell him that,'

But seeing, Zoro was not convinced by his answer.

'Look like Zoro still wants to know my dream, So how should I handle it, think Leo think, no this will not work, same with one or maybe I could say that my goal is to become a pirate king hehe, no it will still not big enough, but wait perhaps this could work,' Leo thought while grinning inwardly.

"I can tell you more, but not in this restaurant, especially not here," Leo said while gesturing toward the people that were listening to their talks with great interest,

After saying that, Leo paid the bill and started to walk toward the harbor.

Seeing him leave, Zoro also picked up his things and started to follow him.

"So to were, I hope not to your ship," Zoro voiced.

"Yes, is that a problem," Leo questioned, but after seeing the Zoro did not reply, Leo resumed to speak, "We can talk on my ship without anyone else's hearing,"

"Yeah, but why do you want to keep quiet about your dream? It's not like your dream is to become the pirate king or something," Zoro said while chuckling.

But when Zoro said this, it almost made Leo had stopped on his track while having a stunned expression on his face.

'I'm this easy to see-through,'

Shacking away these thoughts, Leo started to quicken his pace.

"Hey hey, why did you start walking faster," Zoro asked while matching his pace.

"Because I wants to reach it quick" Leo replied with shrugged

After a few minutes of walking, both of them reach the place where Black Pearl was berthing on the port,

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

When Zoro saw his ship, he was stunned.

'When he said ship, I thought he was talking about a small one, not this fucking huge Galleon, and most importantly, how the fuck he is sail it alone?'

As for why Zoro didn't think about Leo having a crew because Leo himself said that he wants him to be his first mate,

And he doesn't look like he would lie about it.

After seeing his reaction, Leo laughed inwardly, but has a innocent smile on his face and said, "We can talk in my office,"

After hearing Leo's voice, Zoro snaps out of his thoughts and starts to follow him to his office.

While moving toward the office, Zoro saw the interior of the kitchen and thought, 'Even so, everything looks strange, but it still looks good together,'

After moving onward from the strange kitchen, they both arrived at the office door.

Leo quickly opened the door and let himself and Zoro in.

When Zoro entered the room and scrutinized it, 'Seriously, this room looks more like noble's quarters than an office of a ship,'

While Zoro was looking at the office interior,

Leo sat on the main chair and said, "And now that we are alone, I should tell you my dream," while gesturing for him to sit on the chair.

"My dreams!" Leo said while a few chuckles escaped from his mouth.

"You know, when I started sailing, I only wanted to enjoy my life, but then I had an encounter with something that changed me, that made me the way I am," Leo said while shacking on his chair.

"And that's when the reality hits me like a freaking truck and makes me realize that my dream is not even a dream but a fucking excuse that I used to start sailing," Leo said while trying to regain his calm.

"After that, I started to ask myself what is my dream," Leo said

"And what I want also left me shocked because I want to become, not just 'The Strongest Man In The World' or 'The Strongest Creature In The World', but if that's was not enough, then I also wants to 'A Pirate King' and finds One Piece," Leo said while laughing loudly.

"So, I thought fuck it,"

"I will just become all of them,"

"Because 'If your dreams don't scare you, then they are not big enough for you!'" Leo said while looking at Zoro's face.

"And there are some other small goals or dreams that I want to complete, while traveling to complete them," Leo said while chuckling loudly.

After Leo finished speaking, Zoro was excessively shocked and could only think of him as 'MADMAN!'

When Leo saw the expression on Zoro's face, he said while chuckling softly, "You think I am too greedy! right,"

"Damn straight! I am greedy!"

"But greed is more important for us than you think,"

"Because a intelligent leader without greed is even worse than a stupid one!"

"You know why because without greed, you will not have the drive or will to achieve it, because, without it, you will be happy with what you have and will not try to improve,"

"So, are you happy with how strong you are, and you don't want to defeat Mihawk and claim his title of Worlds Strongest Swordsman!" Leo said while is gaze at Zoro, who was shacking his head in denial.

"Ha-ha, my buddy, each and everyone who dreams is greedy, greedy to accomplish here dreams,"

"So as, a leader...leader must be greedier than all his members. I must laugh louder and rage harder than them."

"So, I have told you my dream, and now it's your turn to give me an answer," Leo said with a solemn expression,

While hearing such emotional speech, Zoro also went through a myriad of emotions, and eventually, with a determined expression on his face, Zoro started, "It only been a month since I left the dojo, my teacher and everyone I know, and started sailing in the sea to find Mihawk and defeat him,"

"And then I meet you, a person that completely refreshed my understanding of the sea,"

"And when we first fought, I thought that you were mocking my dream, but now I see that your dreams are even greater than mine,"

"So, yes I will be happy to be your first mate captain, so will you accept me, captain!" Zoro asked with a smile.

"Hahaha...Yes, I will be delighted to have you as my first mate," Leo declared with laughter.
