Adventure Guys

Marine 1: Captain Smoker. Where are you going?
Smoker: The town square. He’ll be there. I’m sure.
Marine 1: You mean Monkey D. Luffy?
Marine 2: Captain, I’ll mobilize 100 men immediately.
Marine 3: And the entire battalion afterwards.
Smoker: You guys just don’t get it. I don’t need anybody’s help.

*Luffy starts climbing the execution platform. Everyone in the square watches him.*
Smoker: Hey! You, kid!
Luffy: I’m kinda busy right now. Can it wait a minute?
Smoker: You’re him? The guy with the eastern sea’s biggest bounty?
Luffy: Yeah, that’s me. Monkey D. Luffy.
Smoker: I’m Captain Smoker of the marines and I’m in charge of keeping the peace in this town. You’re under arrest.
Luffy: Arrest? Forget that! See, I’m going to sail into the open sea so that I can become king of the pirates.
Smoker: King of the pirates?
Luffy: And, I refuse to get arrested in this town.
Smoker: Then you’ll have to go through me. You don’t get to enter the sea unless you’re able to beat me first. That’s the rule of this town. Course, that’s assuming you’ll be stupid enough to fight me.
Luffy: So you’re saying I can’t get into the sea unless I beat you first? Well, I guess I’ll have to beat you!
Smoker: Let’s get started.
Luffy: Gum gum-
*But Luffy’s legs are tangled on the scaffolding.*
Smoker: What’s this? He’s made out of rubber?
Luffy: No fair! My legs are all tangled up!
Smoker: Hey, come on! Get down from there!
Luffy: I’m not up here cause I wanna be. I’m stuck!
*Luffy is able to pull himself out.*
Luffy: I’m free! Gum gum pistol!
*But Smoker evades Luffy’s punch and appears behind him.*
Smoker: Too slow.
*Smoker punches and then kicks Luffy into the air.*
Smoker: He can’t really be worth 30 million dollars? I don’t even need my devil fruit power. I can beat him with just my fists.
Luffy: Here I come!
*Luffy charges towards Smoker, but he punches Luffy again.*
Smoker: 22 years ago I witnessed Gold Roger’s death. His final moments were proud. Worthy of the title king of the pirates. But you, king of the pirates? Don’t make me laugh. You can’t even enter the sea. Don’t try to get up. There’s no point.
Luffy: Maybe. But you’ll never know unless I try. Here goes! Gum gum whip!
*Luffy stretches his leg and kicks in a wide circle but gets caught in a fountain.*
Luffy: Crap, I missed!
*Luffy is then launched into the air.*
Smoker: That was… bizarre.

Morbius: Alright. Now that I got all the stuff I need, time to find the others.
*He suddenly sees Luffy flying in the sky.*
Morbius: … Oh that silly Luffy getting to shenanigans again. On any other day it would seem strange.

*Luffy crashes in a park.*
Luffy: Man, that was quite a flight. I flew far. Oh well. What should I do now? Time for a nap.
*Luffy then falls asleep.*

*Meanwhile*
Zoro: Man, that was just too weird. She looked just like Kuina. Not to mention she was a swordsman of all things. What a crazy world. I doubt I’ll ever see her again.
*Zoro finds a sword shop and enters it.*
Zoro: I’d like to pick up some swords.
Matsu: Of course, of course, welcome. Have a look at anything you like. We have an extremely large variety to choose from.
Zoro: I’ve got $100,000. For 2 swords. Can you do that?
Matsu: 2 for 100,000? Great. This guy is broke. For 50,000 a piece I can only give you 2 dull blades.
Zoro: I can make do with whatever. I just don’t have the money right now. You can’t make do unless you’re an amateur. Wait!
*He notices the sword on Zoro’s waist.*
Matsu: That sword. Could it be…? Now hold on a second. I j-j-j-just wanna take a look at that sword you got there. Is that o-o-o-ok with you?
Zoro: You ok there, buddy?
Matsu: Let me see!
Zoro: Yeah, whatever.
*Zoro hands it to him and he’s excited to see it.*
Matsu: Can you give me a second?
*He turns around.*
Matsu: This is really it! Stay cool. Poker face. Poker face. A complete amatuer just walked in with a legendary sword. It’s showtime.
*He regains his composure.*
Matsu: Wow, that’s a pretty nice sword you got. You wanna sell it? I’ll give you $200,000 for it. What do you say? That will leave you with 300,000 which should buy you some pretty good steel. At 100,000 a piece, there are bound to be some swords you like here.
Zoro: What? Are you kidding me?
Matsu: Alright. I’ll give you $250,000. No wait, 300,000. Final offer, 500,000!
Zoro: Just stop. I’m not selling. The sword is mine.
Matsu: Tough guy! I’ll buy it from you for $650,000! Ok! Fine, I give up! How does $800,000 sound to you?
*The woman from earlier enters the shop.*
Woman: I’m back! Did you finish polishing my Shigure? Oh, it’s you.
Zoro: Crap!
Woman: Thank you again for picking up my glasses earlier. I don’t know what would’ve happened without them.
*She sees Zoro’s sword.*
Woman: That sword looks just like the Wado Ichimonji. Is this really the sword?
Zoro: Wado Ichimonji?
Matsu: Stop talking. Stop talking.
Woman: It’s beautiful. This has to be one of the 21 Great Grade swords.
*She pulls out a small sword book.*
Woman: See? It says here that this sword is worth no less than $100 million. But you’re broke, how do you have this legendary sword?
Matsu: Damn! You just had to keep talking, didn’t you?! I’m gonna sue your ass for obstruction of business!
Woman: Obstruction of business? I’m sorry. I don’t know what I did, but please forgive me.
Matsu: Here, I’ve finished polishing your precious Shigure for you. Now just take it and get out. I don’t want to see you in my store again.
*He tosses her a green sword but fumbles and falls into some swords on display.*
Matsu: Just get out before you tear my store apart!
Woman: I’m sorry!
Matsu: Did she ever help you dodge a bullet? It is a complete waste to have such a legendary sword attached to someone who has no idea of its true value. You can pick from our lovely selection barrel swords for 50,000 a piece. Pick any 2 you’d like.
Zoro: What is that guy’s problem?
*He starts looking through some barrels filled with swords.*
Woman: You must lose a lot of swords if you think you have to carry 3 of them around. Unless you’re that famous pirate hunter.
Zoro: Yeah, pirate hunter.
Woman: He’s quite the legend. His name is Roronoa Zoro.
Zoro: Oh yeah, him.
Woman: Yeah. He’s known throughout the eastern sea for his amazing sword skills. But he’s not a good person. A swordsman who is just a bounty hunter is no honorable swordsman at all. Everything’s backwards. It’s really too bad for real swordsmen. Pirates and bounty hunters as swordmasters, it just doesn’t make any sense. They have most of the world’s legendary swords, too. It’s a real tragedy.
Zoro: Oh, I don’t know. That’s the kind of thing you have to look at on a case by case basis I guess. You never know what people are capable of.
Woman: This is my Shigure. I am going to work as hard as I can to perfect my skills and then one day I’ll take back all the legendary swords, because the filthy hands that hold them now have no right to wield them. Yes. The 12 Supreme Grades, the 12 Great Grades, as well
As the Skillful Grades. I’ll find them all.
Zoro: And this one? My sword. The Wado Ichimonji?
Woman: I’m not trying to get the legendary swords back for my sake. I just don’t want criminals to have them.
*Zoro’s attention is drawn to a red sword on the barrels.*
Zoro: This sword is…
Woman: I think that’s… let me see.
*She looks through her book.*
Woman: Just as I thought! Kitetsu! The Sandai Kitetsu. It’s predecessor, the Nidai Kitetsu is a Great Grade sword and the Shodai Kitetsu before that is listed as a Supreme Grade Sword. Hey, are you really only selling this one for $50,000?
Matsu: Yeah…
Woman: Unbelievable! That’s an authentic Grade sword. Wow. You have to buy that sword. It’s worth at least a million dollars or more. You can’t pass it up. It’s too valuable.
Matsu: Aw, damn it! I can’t sell it!
Woman: I thought so. There must have been some mistake. This is a legendary sword after-
Matsu: It’s not what you think.
*Zoro examines it.*
Zoro: The sword’s cursed.
Matsu: How do you know?
Zoro: Just do.
Matsu: The Kitestu swords are superior in all respects, but they’ve been cursed since their beginnings. You have to believe me. There are stories from all over of master swordsman who have met their death after taking up a Kitestu sword. Nobody is stupid enough to even touch them these days. And you’ll fall to its curse as well if you decide to take it. I’m scared to let you buy it. I’m afraid it’ll curse me too. Just leave it alone.
Woman: How horrible! I’m sorry I even brought it up. It would be death to take that sword.
Zoro: Sounds great. Think I’ll take it.
Matsu: I can’t sell it, you fool! Cause if something happens to you with that sword, the curse could come back to me.
*He gets hit over the head by his wife.*
Matsu’ wife: Don’t be an idiot! Let him buy it.
Matsu: Don’t hit me!
Zoro: Well, we’ll see. How about we find out which one is stronger. This sword’s curse or my good luck.
*Zoro tosses it in the air.*
Woman: No!
*Zoro holds out his arm as the sword spins as it falls.*
Matsu: Stop it! You’re gonna chop your arm off, you fool! Don’t!
*The sword spins around Zoro’s arm, narrowly cutting it and lands on the floor.*
Zoro: I’ll take it. Hey, pick out another. You’ve got a good eye on you.
Woman: Uh… Ok.
Matsu: You, wait here!
*He runs into the back and grabs a black sword.*

Matsu: It is covered in a black lacquer finish with an uneven temper pattern. My shop is small, but this is the finest sword I have. It is named the Skillful Grade sword Yubashiri.
Zoro: I told you, I’m flat broke. It’s too much.
Matsu: No matter. I’ll give it to you free of charge if you’ll take it. You’re welcome to the Kitetsu as well. You deserve it. Haven’t run across a real swordsman in awhile. I’m sorry I tried to cheat you before. You must have some damn good luck, friend.
*Zoro walks out of the shop, now armed with 3 swords.*
Zoro: I definitely feel better having 3 swords again.
Matsu’s wife: What the hell? You can’t buy me anything nice, but you can give away our best sword.
Matsu: That sword belongs in the hands of a true swordsman.
Matsu’s wife: Here, why don’t you take out the garbage?
Matsu: Yes, mam.
Woman: That's weird. Who was that guy?
Morbius: Crap. I wish I had a cart or something to carry all this shit.
*bumps into that woman Zoro met*
Woman: Oh sorry! I didn't see you there!
Morbius: No I'm sorry, I have a ton of boxes.
Woman: It's alright- hey wait a minute
Morbius: What?
Woman: You look familiar
Morbius: I look like a lot of people.
Woman: No hold on, you're that doctor who went missing for 6 weeks now!
Morbius: *gulp* uh…
Woman: Dr. Mitchel Morbius! You’re pretty famous aren't you? I mean you have to be since the reward for your founding is pretty high. But now that you're here, we can report you found and-
Morbius: Oh no need to do that! I'm laying low for a bit.
Woman: But why? Aren't most of your family and friends worried about you?
Morbius: I'll call them back or something, no reason to report me found!
Woman: Well can you at least confirm if you've been kidnapped by pirates?
Morbius: Pfft! Pirates didn't kidnap me!
Woman: Witnesses say you have been… Wait! If pirates are forcing you to stay missing then I can help-
Morbius: No thank you!
Woman: If you're being blackmailed by pirates, then at least-
Morbius: You didn't see me here! Good day ma'am!
Woman: Wait-
*scuries by*
Morbius: Bye!!!
Woman: … Oh poor thing, another victim of pirate kidnapping.

*Later, at the navy base.*
Marine: We’ll keep searching, men. Monkey D. Luffy’s crew is somewhere in Lougetown and we are going to find them.
Marines: Yes, sir!
Smoker: I get so tired of people shouting. I’ve told you that. He’s not going to try to hide. He’ll find me. I’m sure of it.
Woman: Captain Smoker, has something happened?
Smoker: Tashigi, where the hell have you been?

*At the same time, Luffy has woken up and starts running back to the town square.*
Luffy: This time, I’ll make it to that platform! I will stand where he stood. And see what he saw.
