If you start a riot, we can't stay here!! And that means we can't go to the sky. Luffy: Mehhhhh. Sickly Guy: AAAAH!!! - Page 131 - Nami: Wha... who's that?! Luffy: Look, he fell. Zoro: Yup.

Luffy: Chill out, Nami. Nami: Do you realize you were about to be killed for no reason?!! Luffy: It happens. Nami: NO IT DOES NOT!! It's wrong!! I don't think we'll find any worthwhile information here. People: Hey, he's doin' it again!! ...that WRESTLING CHAMPION... How many victims does that make?! It's not like he has a bounty on his head. Who the hell is he...? Masked Man: UIHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! People: Stay away from HIM... Luffy + Zoro: CHAMPION?! Nami: WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO COMPETITIVE?!! - Page 135 - Zoro: How about here...? Luffy: It's not so raucous. Nami: It's actually quiet. ...this is beautiful. The rest of the town is horrid but this place is so nice. Zoro: Is it a mansion on the water? Just like a floating resort... Luffy: I don't see anyone... something smells good, though... - Page 136 - Spector: OH!! Oh... Oh, sirs!! Sirs, please!! You must not barge in like this... Luffy: Huh? Spector: R... right now, the Tropical Hotel is being rented out by the Bellamy party. Zoro: Hotel? This is a hotel...? Spector: It would be terrible if B... Be-be... Bellamy-sama saw you here. Please, leave at once. Luffy: Oh come on, we can at least come inside. Nami: Who is Bellamy? Sarquiss: What's going on? Spector: EEEEEEEP!!!! - Page 137 - [Bellamy Pirate Crew Second-in-Command] [Bigknife Sarquiss] [Bounty: 38 Million Berries] Sarquiss: Who are these dirty little kids...? Spector: S... Sarquiss-sama, welcome back! Uh, I, well... Lilly: We don't want excuses, chase them out! How much do you think we paid to rent this place out?! Sarquiss: Exactly... Hey... go home, you little shit...!! - Page 138 - Luffy: Can I kick his ass? Nami: NO!!! Sarquiss: Hmph... haha!! He's a comedian. Kick MY ass...?! ...you poor kids look pretty ratty. Here, buy yourselves some nice clothes. Lilly: You're just wasting it on them, Sarquiss. Sarquiss: Haha... maybe wiping their asses would be more effective. Luffy: Really? We can have it? Nami: THIS IS DISGUSTING!! LET'S GO!! Luffy: Ohay, ohay, I han wah on my own. Sarquiss: What... you don't want it? Hahaha. Hahahahaha!!! Hehehe... Lilly: Ahahaha. Oh my God, how pathetic. - Page 139 - Rivers: Sarquiss! Lilly! Give 'em a break. Sarquiss: Huh? Oh, I didn't see you guys. Rivers: They've managed to make it this far... they're doing the best they could. Look. [Bellamy Pirate Crew] Mure: They're nothing compared to you and Bellamy, however. Rivers: They're doing pretty good for "normal" people...!! Eddie: Yes. Unfortunately they won't survive when the "new era" comes. - Page 140 - Sarquiss: Still... that little shrimp is worth 30 million...? We should show this to Bellamy. [Bar] Bartender: Mocktown... is a place for pirates to unload some of their riches. They throw around their hard-earned money like nothing. Brawling and murder are an everyday occurence, but they usually don't attack the townsfolk. Not so much fun without anyone to accept your money, no? - Page 141 - Nami: Still, I really don't like this place. Bartender: Wahaha! It's normal to feel that way. Sorry to say, you won't find too many normal people here. Your Log will be set within 4 days, so I suggest leaving before you get caught in any trouble. Luffy + Large Man: (BLRG) Nami: 4 days... ...we shouldn't even be here for 2 days, then... Excuse me, sir- Luffy: HEY!! MISTER!!! Large Man: HEY, GUY!!! Bartender: Hm? What? - Page 142 - Luffy: This cherry pie is unbelievably DISGUSTING!!! Large Man: This cherry pie is unbelievably DELICIOUS!!! Luffy: Huh? Large Man: Huh? - Page 143 - Luffy: glug Large Man: glug Luffy: This drink is especially DELICIOUS!!! Large Man: This drink is especially DISGUSTING!!! Bartender: ...I'm not the cook, so it doesn't matter to me either way... Large Man: Somethin' wrong with your tongue? Luffy: Somethin' wrong with your head? Hey mister, I want 50 pieces of meat to go. Large Man: Hey guy, I want 51 of those cherry pies to go. Luffy: Oh... actually I meant 52 pieces. Large Man: Sorry, I wanted 53 pies. Luffy: No, 54 pieces. Large Man: 55 pies. Luffy: 60 pieces. Large Man: 70 pies. Luffy: 80. Large Man: 100. - Page 144 - Both: WHAT, YOU WANNA FIGHT?!! Zoro: What the hell are you fighting over?!! Nami: Luffy!! Don't you remember your promise?!! And we don't have the money to buy all this meat!! We're not shopping. Large Man: Are you... a pirate...?! Luffy: That's right!! MY BOUNTY IS 30 MILLION!!! Large Man: 30 million?! YOU...?? THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE, YOU LITTLE LIAR!!! Zoro: Cut it out!! Luffy: WHY WOULD I LIE?!! IT'S TRUE!!! - Page 145 - Bartender: C'mon now, no fighting in the bar. Just take this and leave!! 50 cherry pies. Large Man: Hmph... Huh? Bellamy: IS THERE A PIRATE WEARING A "STRAW HAT" IN HERE? People: IT...!!! IT'S BELLAMY!!! - Page 146 - SBS Corner D: Oda-chan! How you doin'?! (Inoki-style) (note: I don't know who that is) Umm, I have a question. In One Piece Volume 18, chapter 157, Luffy complains about lack of food with spirally eyes... but right behind him is Nami-san and her orange trees. Why doesn't he eat the oranges...? O: Oranges... yes, she has them... However... Taking one and eating it is equivalent to instant death. Yes, instant death. Not eating for a week is not enough to kill a human. Whether you survive by having some strong reason to live for, or taking an orange (death) and fighting your navigator, it's a major life decision... However, I believe that not even she could be so cruel that she'd watch her friend on the brink of death. Brrrr. D: Oda-senseeei! YOUR PHONE IS RINGING. P.N. That's Right O: Nah, don't worry. It's just my editor. D: I need to ask you something, Oda-sensei. I want to give you a letter directly, but I don't know where to send it. Please tell me your address. O: Ahh. Address. For a letter. ...I GOT YOUR LETTER. (gaaaan) Erm. There are two places. You can go via the address to the editors offices as written in Jump, or the special mailbox for the SBS questions only. Either way, it comes right to me. Don't worry. - Chapter 223 Owari -
