Rufi: The pirate flag is finished!!


Rufi: Ha ha ha. I've put a lot of my thought on it. And this is our pirate flag.

Zoro: Ours?

Usop: His drawing is really suck!

Nami: Maybe you have to look at this picture as abstract.

Zoro: Pirate flag is the symbol of death anyway. This is looked scary in someway.

Rufi: How is it?

Usop: You really don't know how to draw. I'll do it myself.

Rufi and Zoro: Why do you draw your symbol on it?


Nami: O.k. It looks good now.

Usop: You like it?

Zoro: It's totally different from Rufi's.

Rufi: O.k. Let's draw it on the sail.

Rufi: O.k. Now Going Meri is complete!!


Zoro, Nami, Usop: I am so tired!

Bang

Zoro: What..!?

Zoro: What are you doing?

Rufi: I am practicing canon shooting.

Rufi: Apparently, I am very bad at it.

Usop: Let me take a look.

Rufi: Shoot that island.

Usop: O.k.

Usop: Maybe it's about here!


Bang!

Rufi: You are good! Just only one shot and you get to the target.

Usop: Only one shot?

Usop: See? I am very good at targeting. If you don't mind, you can call me, Captain.

Rufi: From now on, you are a shooter!


Usop: O.k. I give up! However, if you don't know how to do anything, you have to make me captain of this ship.

Rufi: Sure.

Rufi: Listen. I have an idea. Before we enter Grand Line, we should find another crew.

Nami: Yes. Since you have a very beautiful kichen, I will hire someone if I have money.

Zoro: He is one of the most important crew for the long journey.

Rufi: You think so? And also the real pirate should have..

Rufi: ... a musician!

Zoro: Are you nut? For a second, I thought that you have a good idea, but now you've ruin it. What do you think the real pirates are?

Rufi: What? Shouldn't pirates have some kind of entertaining?


Joni: Show me yourself! I will kill all of you!

Rufi: What's that?

Rufi: Hey! Who are you?

Joni: It 's none of your business to know who I am.


Joni: Remember that!

Zoro: How many are they?

Nami: Only one.

Zoro: Leave that to Rufi then.

Joni: I've killed many pirates. The infamous pirate liked you ...


Joni: ...shouldn't dare to kill my buddy!!

Rufi: For whatever reason that might be,...

Joni: !

Rufi: ...stop...


Rufi: ...destroying my ship!!

Joni: Ugh! I almost get him!

Rufi: What did you say? I don't understand.


Zoro: Huh? Isn't that Joni?

Joni: Ah?

Joni: Zoro-sempai!!

(Sempai is the japanese word to use when you call people that you respected or older than you. For Ranma 1/2's fan, you might be familiar with this word because it's the word that Ranma called Kuno Tatewaki.)

Zoro: What happen? Where is Yosaku?

Joni: He..

Usop: What? They know each other?

Nami: What's going on here?

Rufi: ?

Joni: Yosaku is..


Zoro: Sick?

Joni: Yes. 3 days ago, he's still healthy. But then he pass out, and I don't know why.

Joni: His tooth came out and his old wound is bleeding. I don't know what to do. We take a rest at that island, and then..

Joni: ...this ship shoot the canon to us!

Rufi and Usop: !

Rufi and Usop: We are very very sorry.

Joni: It's o.k. [sniff]

Rufi and Usop: We are sorry. Please don't tell the police to arrest us.


Joni: The name "Yosaku and Joni" has become well-known to many pirates. He is my best buddy that helping me with pirate hunter business for many year. Will he survive, sempai?

Nami: You are very stupid!!

Zoro: What did you say, Nami?

Joni: You think that my friend's death is stupid?

Nami: Rufi. Usop. There are some lemons in the kitchen. Just make the lemon juice and bring it here.

Rufi and Usop: Yes ma'am!

Zoro: Lemon?


Nami: He has a scurvy. If it is not too late, he'll get better in 2 or 3 days.

Joni: Is that true, sempai?

Nami: Don't call me, sempai!

Nami: In the past, anyone who got a scurvy would die. However, the real reason of scurvy is lacking of Vitamin C from vegetable. And in those day, the ship didn't store any kind of vegetable on board.

Rufi: You are the miracle doctor!

Usop: I knew that you are good.

Nami: If you want to become a pirate, you should know the simple thing like this!!!


Yosaku: I am healthy now!

Joni: Yeah! My buddy is strong now!

Nami: The scurvy isn't cured that fast!!

Joni: Sorry. Let us introduce ourselves. My name is Joni.

Yosaku: And I am Yosaku. We used to be the pirate hunters as Zoro-sempai. Nice to meet all of you.


Yosaku: How can I repay you? Actually, I thought that I would die.

Joni: However, this is so unbelievable that Zoro, the pirate hunter, has become a pirate himself.

Yosaku: Ugh!

Joni: Yosaku, buddy!

Zoro: Just shut up and take a rest!!

Nami: This is a good lesson.

Zoro: I've never known that we can be easily got sick.

Usop: If that man did not find us, he'll not survive.


Usop: So, during the long journey, the person who can make sure that everyone have enough food is "chef."

Rufi: ....

Nami: Come to think of that, chef is very important.

Rufi: O.k. I've decided! We should search for "chef" and we will have a chance to eat a good food.

Joni: Sempai!!

Zoro: What is it, Joni?

Joni: If you are looking for a chef, I would like to recommend one place. However, I am not guarantee that he will join you.


Everyone: Restaurant ship?

Joni: Yes. From here, it should take us 2 to 3 days. But you have to be careful because it is closed to Grand Line. There might be some bad pirates there.

Joni: I've heard that "the Hawk Eyes Man" that you've been searching for used to appear there, too.

Zoro: !

Rufi: Let's go then. I leave the rest for you.

Zoro: .....

Narrator: Rufi lets 2 strangers, Yosaku and Joni, join him. Their destination is the restuarant ship.
