Ch3 Joining Luffy and Getting Out of The Marine Base
He first made the decision that he was no longer Noah, he was now Zoro. He would discard his old name completely. He next reviewed the memories of Zoro. All seamed to be as he thought it should be except for two things. First Zoro had found Ark Royal about a year before. He never realized it was a ship it was just a weird moving small island. He found the 3 zanpakuto on the weird island. The ship should be just at the edge of the horizon from where he is now. Zoro had jumped in the water and swam ashore when he was captured by the Marines.
The 2nd thing that was different was that Zoro had actually died. After he ate the little girls sweet rice off the ground and Luffy went off to look for his swords. Zoro had gotten food poisoning and died from a combination of that and hunger. That is when Noah possessed his body.
Now he had a plan. He would just wait for Luffy to bring him the swords and accept to join his crew. They would defeat Axe Hand Morgan and his Marines just like in season 1 episode 2 of One Piece. He was sure he could do it as he had inherited the current skills of the original Zoro. He knew as much swordsmanship and 3 sword style as Zoro did up to this point in his life. They would then take Luffy's small boat out to the Ark Royal and start their adventure as pirates.

Unknown to Zoro as he was thinking all of this something else different was happening. When Luffy entered Helmeppo's room to retrieve the swords there was someone else there. She was a beautiful woman with long orange hair and a large chest. Luffy got ready for a fight when he noticed her as she was wearing a marine lieutenant uniform with a sword at her hip. Luffy noticed she was not paying attention. She appeared to be completely lost in thought. He just moved past her and grabbed the 3 swords and jumped out the window to save Zoro from being shot.
The woman was lost in thought. She was thinking of the situation she was in. She hated her captain, Axe Hand Morgan as she knew he was a tyrant. And she really hated his spoiled brat of a son, Helmeppo. She liked being a marine but this was just wrong. Now they had captured and were going to kill this pirate hunter Zoro that had done nothing but stand up to the brat.
Who was he and how did he have 3 swords like hers? The 3 of them felt like her own. She had never met any one else that had a sword that felt like these yet. That was why she had snuck into Helmeppo's room. She needed to see the swords again. And now she was stuck in a trance with her own thoughts.
She was jarred from her daze when she heard the shooting and fighting out in the courtyard. She watched the fight from the window. She did not want to help Morgan and she was interested to see Zoro fight with the swords. It was odd seeing someone fight with 3 swords but she liked what she saw. As a swordsman herself she could tell he was good. She was even more happy when the 2 won the fight and the tyranny of Morgan finally came to an end.

Zoro agreed to join Luffy's crew when he saved him from being shot. When he was freed from the bindings, he helped Luffy take down Morgan. He felt powerful wielding the 3 zanpakuto, and they were still sealed at that. He couldn't wait to unseal them and start using their amazing powers. At the end of the fight he collapsed from hunger. Though he had reincarnated into this body, the body itself had not had food for a long time.
Just like in the show they went to the bar and stuffed their stomachs. Luffy had his fight with Cobe, allowing him his chance to join the Marines. They went to the docks and boarded Luffy's small boat. Zoro told him to sail toward the shape of a small island off on the horizon.
If Zoro had been paying attention to the Marines saluting them as they left, he might have noticed someone he recognized. Someone that didn't belong in this world.
In the crowd of Marines saluting there was a beautiful busty orange haired lieutenant, staring at Zoro with intrigue.
(You get a pat on the back if you know who she is.)
