Lougetown part 2
Zoro: Hey, I think I see an island.
Luffy: Really?! That’s great! What island is it?
Nami: There’s a famous city on that island. Known as Lougetown.
Luffy: Why’s it famous? They got delicious meat?
Zoro: I’m pretty sure I’ve heard of it before. It’s the city of the beginning and the end.
Morbius: What does that mean?
Nami: It’s the town where the king of the pirates, Gold Roger, was both born and executed.
Luffy: That’s where the king of the pirates died?
Nami: Want to go there?
Luffy: Let’s do it. This was the man who had the One Piece. Everything the world has to offer. I need to see where he was born and executed.
*Luffy and his crew arrive at the island and enter Lougetown.*
Luffy: This is gonna be so fun!
Nami: This is also a good chance to resupply on things we need.
Usopp: If that’s the case, I’m gonna go on a shopping spree. I bet they have all sorts of stuff here.
Sanji: I’ll be able to stock up on fresh produce. And fresh women.
Morbius: I'll stop by several stores where they'll sell equipment I need for scientific research stuff. You'll be surprised how easy it is to come by stuff.
Zoro: You’d think there’d be a swordsmith around here.
Nami: I thought you were broke? Are you gonna steal a sword?
Luffy: Well, I’m gonna find out where they kill people.
Usopp: Huh?
Morbius: What are you talking about?
Luffy: I’ve gotta see where the king of the pirates was executed!
*Luffy runs off.*
Usopp: Hey, wait! We have to pick a meeting place! Ah, that’s not good.
Morbius: Kinda morbid he wants to see where Roger died. It's not everyday someone wants to be in a place of death.
*Later, Nami tries on an outfit at a store.*
Nami: How do I look?
Shop Owner 1: You look absolutely engaging!
*Nami tries on another one.*
Nami: And now?
Shop Owner 1: Artistically extravagant!
*And another.*
Nami: This?
Shop Owner 1: Assiduously elevated!
*Nami keeps trying on expensive clothes.*
Shop Owner 1: May I deliver these to your lodging?
Nami: No thanks. A little too expensive for my taste.
*She leaves.*
Shop Owner 1: Thank you. Come back soon.
*Morbius gets his supplies. And some bag of cheetos*
Morbius: Now all of this will do nicely.
Cashier: You making a lab?
Morbius: Something like that.
Shopper 1: … hey, hey isn't uh.
Shopper 2: Oh my God it is.
Shopper 1: that scientist that went missing awhile back!
Shopper 2: what's he doing here.
*The cashier overhears that*
Cashier: … Do; you look pretty familiar to some people.
Morbius: Well, I'm sorta famous a bit.
Cashier: You wouldn't happen to be Dr. Mitchel Morbius? You look just like him. But they said pirates kidnapped him and he was missing ever since.
Morbius: Well uh, I've been traveling. But don't believe everything you hear on the internet.
Cashier: This was on the news.
Morbius: … Well, maybe I'll be back soon.
Cashier: Okay then. Here's your receipt.
Morbius: … Thank you…
*Takes the equipment.*
*At the island’s marine base, Luffy’s wanted poster is faxed.*
Marine 1: Captain Smoker, a message from headquarters. I’ve just received word that Monkey D. Luffy and his pirate crew are headed to Lougetown. The bounty on his head has just been raised to $30 million.
*The base’s commanding officer sits in a room filled with smoke and stacks rocks on top of each other on a table.*
Smoker: $30 million. I can’t wait to congratulate him.
Marine 1: Sir, this is the pirate that defeated Don Krieg and destroyed Arlong Park!
Smoker: Shut your mouth!
*The rocks fall over.*
Smoker: All your whining made it collapse in defeat.
Marine 1: I’m sorry, sir.
Smoker: Silence. Your stress is useless. You alone dictate the pace of your battle. Am I wrong?
Marine 1: No, sir.
*Smoker opens the window to let the smoke out.*
Smoker: Then why so tense?
Marine 1: Well… it’s been a long time since I’ve faced a pirates group of this considerable strength, sir.
Smoker: You really have nothing to worry about. Under my command, had there been even a single pirate to set foot on this island without being captured?
Marine 1: No, sir.
Smoker: Then just calm the hell down. You’re screwing up my pacing, marine.
Marine 2: Reporting, sir. I have word that a pirate group has recently arrived. You’re requested there at once.
Marine 1: It must be Luffy’s group. How’d they do that? I just got this.
Smoker: 30 million, huh? This might actually be interesting.
Marine 2: Sir?
Smoker: Just talking to myself. Forget it.
Marine 1: Don’t you wanna see this captain?
Marine 2: Captain, you have to tell us what your orders are.
Smoker: No need to.
Marine 2: Sir, do you even know who this pirate’s defeated?
Smoker: You’re annoying me. I’m in command here.
Marine 2: Understood, Captain!
Smoker: Where’s Tashigi?
Marine 2: Sir, she mentioned to me she had some things to do this morning but that she’d try to make it back in time for training.
Smoker: Irresponsible girl. Where’d the hell she go?
Little girl: Yay! I got ice cream!
Father: You better slow down or you’re gonna drop it, ok?
*The little girl accidentally bumps into Smoker and spills her ice cream on him.*
Father: Captain Smoker!
Little girl: My ice cream.
Father: I am very sorry, sir. Please don’t hurt her. My daughter shouldn’t dun. Please don’t hurt me. I’m sorry. Please don’t hurt us.
Smoker: I’m sorry. My silly pants have eaten all your ice cream. Here, go buy yourself 5 scoops.
*He hands the girl some money and walks away.*
Father: Thank you, sir!
Little girl: Thank you.
*With Nami.*
Nami: Captain Smoker?
Shop Owner 2: He is definitely one of the toughest marines we’ve ever seen in this town. See, Lougetown used to be a hangout for pirates but not anymore. As soon as Smoker took over, any Pirate that’s ever come near this island has been caught, incarnated and/or executed. Smoker is bad. He’s a complete and utter monster. There are even those who say he had devil fruit powers.
Nami: Devil fruit powers?
*Later, Smoker finishes defeating some pirates that were robbing a store.*
Marine 2: That’s amazing, Captain. You captured Luffy all by yourself.
Smoker: You’re a complete idiot. This isn’t Luffy. Anyone could tell that. If this garbage was worth 30 million I’d become a pirate.
Marine 2: So, then where’s Luffy?
Smoker: And what’s your worry? He’ll be here soon enough.
Luffy: I’m here. But where’s the execution platform? This looks like the docks. Hey! Can you help me?
Smoker: Is he a member of this garbage?
Marine 2: No, I don’t think so. Not him.
Luffy: Hi, I need some help. Do you happen to know where they execute people around here?
Smoker: The platform.
Luffy: Yeah, I know, I just can’t seem to find it.
Smoker: I haven’t seen you before.
Luffy: This is my first time here on the island. The town is a whole lot bigger than Windmill Village. But not as big as San Francisco. And it’s really spread out, too.
Smoker: So why go to the platform?
Luffy: Personal quest. To see where the king of the pirates died.
*Smoker looks surprised.*
Luffy: I guess you don’t know. Oh well.
Smoker: Hold it. Just follow the smoke, kid.
Luffy: Great. That way. I’ll see you later!
*Luffy follows the direction the smoke from Smoker’s cigar is pointing.*
*Meanwhile, Zoro looks at swords on display at a sword shop.*
Zoro: Damn it, these swords are all so freaking expensive.
*Flashback*
Nami: Sure. I’ll lend you some money. That’ll just be 300% interest. Hahaha.
*Flashback end*
Zoro: I can’t afford to borrow any more money from that girl. But I can’t be stuck with 1 sword. There’s gotta be a way.
*He then overhears a scuffle going on.*
Woman: Monster? How rude.
Pirate 1: Shut up! Our boss is behind bars because you and your idiot of a captain.
Woman: Haven’t you learned your lesson?
Pirate 2: Definitely not. Guess we need you to teach us again!
Pirate 1: We’re supposed to bring your corpse to our boss so he can see that we finished you off.
Woman: If you insist, I will fight you.
Pirate 2: That is so cute.
Pirate 1: She’s really very funny.
Pirate 2: You do know you’re a girl, right?
*Zoro is about to intervene and save her as they attempt to kill her. But the woman reveals she has a sword and slashes both of them.*
Citizen 1: Woah, she did it!
Citizen 2: That was awesome!
*But she trips, resulting in her glasses falling off.*
Woman: My glasses. Oh crap. Where are they?
*Zoro picks them up.*
Zoro: Hey, um, here you go.
*But Zoro is shocked to see she hates a striking resemblance to Kuina.*
Woman: Thanks. That’s so kind. Can I have my glasses?
