Jango's Dance Paradise Vol.31 "Fullbody's Manly, Tearful Objection DANCE!!"

Mr. 3: I would appreciate it
	If you waited a bit on this "Plan: Utopia".

Miss All-Sunday: Mr. 3!!
	How did you get into the "Secret Underground Base"?!

 - Page 207 -

Mr. 2: Mr. 3!!!  Where did you sneak up from?!!
	I got rid of you, just like I was ordered to...

Crocodile: WAIT, MR. 2!!!

Mr. 3: Sneak?  How rude...
	I simply followed you all the way from Spiders Cafe...
	I hitched a ride on your "Banchi"...
	Boss...  please listen...!!
	I came here because I wanted another chance.
	Of course, Mr. 2 came to kill me...  because I failed to complete the orders I was assigned...
	So I changed my course slightly and went to the "Agent Meeting Spot", Spiders Cafe.

Crocodile: You failed...  to complete your orders...?
	What are you talking about...?!

Mr. 3: I am referring to the fact
	that I allowed Vivi and the Straw-Hat crew to escape...

 - Page 208 -

Crocodile: YOU LET THEM ESCAPE?!!
	YOU MEAN THEY'RE STILL ALIVE?!!

Mr. 3: Er...

Crocodile: What did you tell me on the Phone Snail, then...?!!
	Didn't you say you had disposed of the pirates and Vivi?!!

Mr. 3: Phone Snail?!  What do you mean?  I never used my Phone Snail on Little Garden.

<<Sanji: Hey, this is the shitty restaurant.
	...would you like to make a reservation?

Crocodile: WHAT...?!!

 - Page 209 -

Crocodile: Damn...  NOW I know why the Unluckies never came back.
	You killed at least one or two of them, right...?

Mr. 3: W...  well, not exactly...!!

Crocodile: What?

Mr. 3: B...  B-b-b-but there was a mistake in the information...!!!
	There were actually...  FOUR pirate escorts...!!!
	An...  another long-nosed man...!!!

Crocodile: WHY YOU...

Mr. 2: ZERO-CHAN?!!  Explain to me what's going ON around here!!!  I don't underSTAND!!!

 - Page 210 -

Mr. 2: I...
	MET THEM!!

Crocodile: What?!

Mr. 2: WHILE I WAS ON MY WAY HERE...
	I MET ALL OF THEM!!!!

 - Page 211 -

Mr. 2: HIM!!!
	HIM!!!
	HER!!
	HIM!!
	AND HIM!!!!
	And SHE'S Miss Wednesday?!  Princess Vivi?!
	You mean they were all my "ENEMIES"?!!!

Crocodile: Yes.  They know my identity.
	If we let them go, they'll interfere with the plan.
	And, Mr. 3...  as you said, there was one extra person...  and animal, with them.
	More than previously reported...
	If you ignore the PET,
	That leaves 5 left, including Vivi...
	And they're probably all in Alabasta by now...
	Mr. 2...  let's take some pictures using your memory.

 - Page 212 -

Mr. 3: But, Boss!!  If you'd just give me another chance
	I WILL destroy Vivi and her crew...

Crocodile: SILENCE, YOU MORONIC EGGHEAD!!!!
	Mr. 3...  Mr. 3!!!
	Do you know why I gave you the position I did...?!  Hmm?!

Mr. 3: KAH...

Crocodile: In battle you are inferior to Mr. 4...  Mr. 3!!!
	It was because I believed your sneaky, cowardly tricks would eventually fulfill my orders!!!!
	And you disappointed me...!!!  Someone who can't do what he needs to when the time comes is worthless...!!!

Mr. 3: Ah...  AGH...!!!

Miss Doublefinger: W-what's happening?!

Mr. 2: He's drying up...

 - Page 213 -

Mr. 3: Wa...
	Wadduh...
	Wadduh.

Crocodile: Drink all the water you like.

Mr. 3: Eh...
	Ah!!
	AAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!
	Gufh!!

Crocodile: *tap tap*
	Feeding time.

 - Page 214 -

Mr. 3: Wha...  where am I...?!
	Underwater...?!
	{It's like a fishtank...!!}
	A BUH...  BANANADILE...

 - Page 215 -

Crocodile: That little shithead earned it...
	Killing him once isn't enough!!!
	Now, all you...  Burn the images of these 5 into your mind!!
	Their aim is to "stop the rebellion"...!!!  If we allow them freedom, they WILL show up on their own.

Mr. 2: But Zero-chan...
	If she really is the princess...
	Doesn't that mean she could stop the rebellion?!!

Crocodile: Maybe, unfortunately...  I have heard that the Rebel leader Kohza
	and princess Nefertari Vivi were childhood friends.
	It's a WAVE of 700,000 men.  It won't be easy to stop.
	But she could certainly "sidetrack" the Rebellion.
	We must not let those two meet...!!!

 - Page 216 -

Crocodile: I already have several "Billions" in place inside the Rebellion.
	I haven't received a letter from them yet, which means no direct action has been taken.
	We absolutely must avoid all contact between Vivi and the Rebels before the plan begins!!
	Miss All-Sunday.

Miss All-Sunday: Yes?

Crocodile: Use this opportunity to send a message to the "Billions" in Nanohana.  Use a Phone Snail, if you must!!
	Once they find THEM, they must annihilate them!!!
	DO NOT let the princess and the pirates into Katorea!!!
	VIVI AND KOHZA MUST NOT SEE EACH OTHER!!!

 - Page 217 -

Miss All-Sunday: Yes...  right away.

Crocodile: Now, leave, all of you.
	You'll be late to THE PARTY...
	Our "Utopia" lays before our eyes.
	There cannot be any more trouble from here on...  understand?!

Miss Doublefinger: Leave it to us, Boss...!!

Mr. 2: WE'LL DOOOOOOO IT!!!

Crocodile: ENJOY YOURSELVES.

 - Page 218 -

Usopp: You "QUIT"...?!

Vivi: What do you mean, Luffy-san?!!

Sanji: We don't have time for your stupid games now, Luffy!!  Now get up!!!

Luffy: We're going back.

Sanji: Yeah, we're using the road we took yesterday,
	to go to Katorea and stop the rebellion.
	If 1,000,000 citizens of this country clash, it's all over!!!
	This is for Vivi-chan!!  C'mon, let's go!!!

Luffy: Boooring.

Sanji: WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!

Luffy: Vivi.

Vivi: What?

 - Page 219 -

Luffy: I WANT TO BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF CROCODILE!!!
	If we stop the guys who are rebelling...
	Will we stop Crocodile?
	We can't do anything, even if we go to this place.
	We're pirates.  You'd be better off without us.

Sanji: Sometimes he hits the bullseye without even thinking.

Usopp: That's Luffy for you.

Vivi: Well...

 - Page 220 -

Luffy: You just don't want
	anyone to die in this war!!
	The people of your country,
	or us, or anyone!!
	You're talking about a fight against one of the "Seven Armed Seas",
	in which over a million people will be in battle,
	And all you want is for no one to die!!!
	THAT'S NAIVE.

Nami: STOP, LUFFY!!  CAN'T YOU THINK OF VIVI'S FEELINGS-

Sanji: Wait, Nami-san...

Nami: But...!!

Vivi: What's wrong with that?!  What's wrong about not wanting people to die?!!

Luffy: PEOPLE WILL DIE.

 - Page 221 -

Luffy: Ubfh!!!

Vivi: STOP TALKING LIKE THAT!!!
	DON'T YOU DARE SAY THAT AGAIN!!!  THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO STOP!!!
	YOU CAN'T BLAME THE REBELS OR THE ARMY FOR THIS!!!  WHY SHOULD ANYONE DIE?!
	THIS IS ALL CROCODILE'S FAULT!!!

Luffy: Ngh.
	Then why are YOU risking your life?!!

Usopp: THAT'S GOING TOO FAR, LUFFY!!!!

Sanji: DAMMIT, LUFFY-!!!

Luffy: EVEN I CAN TELL WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS THE MOST
	JUST BY LOOKING AT THE SITUATION!!!

Vivi: What?!!

 - Page 222 -

<<Toto: Yuba cannot be defeated by mere sand...

Luffy: You think risking one life is enough?!!

Vivi: Then what am I supposed to risk?!!

<<Vivi: I will never, ever let him get away with this!!!

Vivi: There's nothing else I have to...!!!

Luffy: WHY DON'T YOU TRY RISKING OUR LIVES, TOO?!!
	I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS!!!!
	...look at you.

<<Vivi: We can stop the rebellion!

Luffy: You're crying.

Vivi: Sniff...

 - Page 223 -

Luffy: You're the one who wants
	to kill him the most!!
	TELL ME.
	TELL ME WHERE CROCODILE IS!!!
