Adventure Guys

Luffy: Why you!
*All the villagers with guns aim them at the ship.*
Villager 5: Ready… Aim…
Morbius: I’m gonna kill you guys!
*Morbius draws claws, But Vivi gets up and grabs onto Luffy and Morbius before they can retaliate.*
Vivi: Stop it! Fighting isn’t going to help anything!
Morbius: But Vivi-
Vivi: I’m fine, guys, it only grazed my arm!
*Vivi bows her head down to the floor.*
Vivi: It’s alright, we won’t land! But can you please call us a doctor?! Our friend is dying from a serious illness, I’m begging you! Please help us!
Luffy: Vivi…
Vivi: You are not fit to be captain of this ship, Luffy. Not everything can be fixed by rushing into a fight. You can’t get into a fight here. Think about Nami. What would happen to her?
Morbius: She… has a good point…
*They both calm down.*
Luffy: You’re right. I’m sorry about that.
*Luffy then bows his head down as well.*
Luffy: Please help us. Call a doctor! Our friend needs you.
???:… I’ll show you to our village. Follow me.
Morbius: … and here I thought there was gonna be a bloodbath
Vivi: See, just ask politely.
Luffy: Yeah, you’re incredible, Vivi.
Morbius: Uh… your arm-
Vivi: I'll be fine.

*Luffy, Mobius, Usopp, Sanji and Vivi follow the villagers to their home. With Sanji carrying Nami on his back.*
Morbius: It sure is nice of you guys to brings us to your doctor so we can help our friend.
???: There is one thing I should warn you about though. The only doctor we have here is actually a witch.
Usopp: Huh, a witch?
Morbius: Oh please, witches aren't re-
*Morbius remembers the blood queen and her coven.*
Morbius: Wait, nevermind that's one fantastical element I did encounter before.
Sanji: You’ve gotta be kidding.
Everything about this island is messed up. What do you people even call this weird place anyway?
???: Actually, this island doesn’t have a name.
Vivi: An island without a name? I didn’t think that was possible.
Usopp: Aaaaaahhhh! A bear!
*A white furred bear walking on its hind legs begins to walk past them.*
Usopp: Hurry, everyone, pretend to be dead!
*Usopp drops down on the ground, pretending to be dead.*
???: A hiking bear. It poses no threat. Don’t forget to bow. It’s proper manners.
*Everyone bows as they walk past the hiking bear, who bows back.*
Morbius: Usopp, get up. Playing dead only works on brown and grizzly bears.

*Zoro and Karoo stay back on the ship. Zoro takes his shoes off.*
Zoro: There we go. That’s much better. Now I can get back to some real training. I was getting sick of that modified training because of that stupid injury. Besides, just watching the ship is boring as hell.
*He then proceeds to take off his coat and shirt as he stands on the edge of the Merry.*
Zoro: Maybe some ice water swimming will help me clear my head a bit.

*The Straw Hats carrying Nami are brought to the village.*
???: This is the village where we live. It’s known as Bighorn.
Luffy: Look at all the weird animals walking around everywhere.
Morbius: Yeah, this is snow country.
Sanji: Look, Nami, we made it to a village of people. We’re here.
Morbius: Now we can get a medical professional to help you.
???: Thanks for the help, everyone. If you’re not a guard you can return to your work.
Villager 1: Are you completely certain that you’ll be alright here by yourself? They are pirates.
???: I believe these people mean us no harm. That’s my hunch anyway. You can trust me on that.
Villager 2: Alright, Dalton, we’ll leave them to you.
Villager 3: Even so, be careful, Dalton.
Villager 4: And call us again if you need anything.
*The villagers that escorted them leave, with only the man who let Luffy and his crew on the island alone with them.*
Vivi: You mean those men are your island’s security forces?
???: No, they’re just ordinary citizens. Come to my house for now.
Morbius: Do you have any hot cocoa?
Usopp: Hey, look over there, Luffy! It's one of those hiking bears!
Luffy: Another one?
*But it’s just a large woman they mistake for a bear but they still bow to her.*
Woman: Hello, Dalton. I heard some pirates landed on the island. I hope everything is alright.
???: Yes, everything is alright. There’s nothing to be worried about.
Old Man: Just want you to know, Dalton, I’m looking forward to the election in two days. Everyone I’ve talked to today says they’re going to vote for you.
???: I hope you’re not serious about that. I’m just an ordinary citizen.
*Vivi tries to remember where she could’ve seen him before.*

*The Straw Hats are brought into the man’s house.*
???: You can use that bed over there. I’m going to warm the place up.
*Morbius and Vivi lay Nami on a bed.*
Morbius: There we go, Nami. Just hang in there.
???: I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Dalton. I’m captain of the island’s security squad. Please excuse our less than friendly welcome. Excuse me, but may I ask you a question? It’s just that… you look familiar to me for some reason.
Vivi: No! I just have one of those faces! Anyway, can you tell us more about this doctor or witch if that’s what she is? Nami’s fever’s gone up to 107.
Dalton: How long has she been like that?
Vivi: It’s been like that for several days and it keeps getting worse.
Dalton: I see. She’ll likely die if she gets any worse.
Vivi: Yes. We have no idea what the illness is, much less how to treat it. We don’t know how to treat it.
Morbius: I tried examining her but I can’t properly figure out what it is she has.
Sanji: We’ve got to find a doctor as soon as possible! Any doctor will do! Where is this witch of yours?!
Dalton: The witch. You see those mountains outside the window?
Sanji: Yeah, I noticed them earlier.
*Sanji looks out the window, but only to see a large snowman built by Luffy.*
Luffy: Super massive snowman!
Usopp: And the feared beast, Snowzilla!
*Usopp has built a large snow sculpture with a resemblance to Godzilla.*
Sanji: Get in here before I kill you!

*Luffy and Usopp drink hot chocolate with everyone else after Sanji destroyed their snow sculptures.*
Dalton: Those mountains are known as the Drum Rockies. Look closely. Do you see the castle on top of the tallest one, the one in the middle.
Usopp: Castle?
Dalton: That castle has lost its king.
Luffy: Aw, much warmer.
Morbius: It’s so delicious.
Sanji: Yeah, I see it up there.
Vivi: What’s so important about the castle?
Dalton: That castle is where our land’s only doctor lives. Doctor Kureha. She’s the one people here call a witch.
Sanji: What?! Of all places, why does she live on top of a mountain?! We have to call her here right now! Nami needs her help!
Dalton: I’m sorry, but there’s no way to contact her.
Sanji: You can’t be serious! What kind of doctor is she?!
Dalton: Her skills as a doctor are quite impressive, really. However, she’s an eccentric old woman. She’s nearly 140 years old.
Sanji: 140? No wonder she doesn’t get around much.
Dalton: Oh, and one more thing. She liked pickled plums.
Morbius: What does that have to do with anything?
Vivi: What happens if people get sick or injured? Doesn’t she help them?
Dalton: She comes down the mountain whenever she feels like it. She looks around for patients. She treats them. Before she leaves, she takes whatever she wants from their houses as payment.
Usopp: She doesn’t sound like a very nice lady.
Morbius: I see where the witch part comes from…
Luffy: Kinda sounds like she’s a pirate.
Vivi: But how is a woman as old as she is capable of getting down that mountain?
Dalton: It’s an odd rumor around here. Several of the villagers claimed to have seen her at night, riding a sleigh of some kind through the sky. They see her silhouette when the moon is out. It’s the reason she’s thought to be a witch. There are others who say they’ve seen her with a strange creature. A creative none of them recognize.
Usopp: See! I knew it! A snow monster! There’s gotta be snow monsters! I knew there would be one! Oh no! Oh no! I don’t want to run into one!
Morbius: Oh, calm down, Usopp. I’m sure there’s an explanation for all of this. A weird one I suspect, but still. Anyway, is she really the only doctor on the island that can help Nami?
Dalton: Dr. Kureha is the only doctor we have. But she is still a woman I’d prefer to stay away from. All we can do is wait for the next time she decides to come down the mountain.
Vivi: Really?
Sanji: No, dammit. We can’t wait here for that long. Nami is getting worse even as we speak.
*Luffy tries to wake Nami up.*
Luffy: Hey, Nami. Nami. Wake up now.
Morbius, Usopp, Sanji and Vivi: Luffy, you idiot! What are you doing to her?!
*Nami wakes up.*
Luffy: Hey, look, she’s awake! Here’s the thing, the only way to see the doctor is to climb the mountain. So we’re gonna have to climb the mountain.
Sanji: Are you crazy?! What about Nami?! How do you expect to get her up there?
Luffy: Easy, she’ll ride on my back.
Vivi: That’s only going to make her even more sick!
Morbius: She’s already sick enough, we don’t want her to get worse!
Luffy: What’s the problem? I thought we needed to hurry?
Vivi: We do, but you’ll never make it up there! Look at how steep and tall that thing is!
Luffy: I can do it.
Sanji: Maybe you can, but climbing that thing would be way too hard on Nami.
Luffy: Look, even if we fall or something, we’ll land in snow.
Vivi: That doesn’t matter! A fall like that would kill even a healthy person!
Usopp: Seriously, Luffy. She has a really bad fever. It’s so high she’s almost dying. Don’t you understand that?!
Nami:… I need to get over this thing and quickly… We need to hurry, for Vivi… Come on, Captain. Let’s go.
Luffy: That’s what I’m talking about! Leave it to me!

Usopp: I can’t believe this. Now our navigator is as crazy as our captain!
Sanji: You know you’re in no shape for a trip like this, Nami.
Vivi: Are you sure you’re ok? It will take you hours to get there.
Luffy: Hey, old guy. Give me some meat for the road.
Dalton: Meat?
Sanji: Right, I’m coming too.
Morbius: I’ll come along as well. It’s best I monitor Nami’s condition till we get to this crazy witch doctor lady.
Usopp: Listen, Luffy! Be very careful! You can’t fall once or Nami’s going to die!
Luffy: Not even once?
Morbius: Yes, you dumbass! You can’t fall, period!
Vivi: Hold still a second. Need to make sure this is tight.
*Vivi ties Nami to Luffy’s back.*
Vivi: Ok, you’re all set. I’m going to wait for you here. If I came with you guys, I’d only get in the way.
Usopp: Yup, me too!
Luffy: Alright. Now you just hold on tight to me, ok, Nami?
Nami: Mhmm…
Dalton: I guess you’re set on going. I’m not going to try and stop you but I ask you to climb up from the other side. That way you can avoid the Lapahns on this side. They’re fierce carnivorous rabbits. You run into a pack of them, you're good as dead.
Luffy: Really? We’ve gotta get up there. We’ll be just fine. Right?
Sanji: Yeah, fine.
Morbius: We’re not gonna let some rabbits get in our way.
Dalton: You can’t be serious! You know how easily those things can kill you?!
Luffy: Nah, we’ll be alright! Now hurry it up, guys, before Nami dies.
*Luffy runs off with Sanji and Morbius behind him.*
Sanji: Don’t say stuff like that, you idiot! Do you wanna jinx us?!
Luffy: Hehehehe!
Dalton: Are you sure they’ll be alright?
Usopp: Well, it’s not really those three we have to worry about.
Vivi: Nami’s the one in trouble. I just hope her strength can hold out long enough. She’s getting sicker by the minute.
*Dalton opens the door to his house.*
Dalton: Why are you standing there? Come on inside. It’s cold out here.
Vivi: Oh no, it’s really ok. I want to stay out here.
*Usopp begins to get chilly.*
Usopp: Me too…
Dalton: I see.
*He then sits down with them.*
Dalton: Well, in that case, I’ll join you.
*They all look at the castle sitting on the tallest mountain on the island.*
Dalton: We did once have some on this island, you know. Some doctors. However, they all left some time ago for a certain reason. They’re very good at what they did when they were still here. They were even well known for the advanced practice in medicine on this island.
Vivi: So what went wrong?
Dalton: A few months ago, we suffered a vicious attack. And our country was destroyed. Destroyed by pirates.
Usopp: Oh man! The whole country?!
Vivi: So that’s the reason you acted that way when you showed up.
Dalton: Yes. After the attack, the word “Pirates” terrified everyone on this island. Sorry about the way we treated you. Their group was small as well. Only five people. Their captain called himself Blackbeard. Their power was so incredible they destroyed our entire country faster than you would believe.
Vivi: And there were only five of them fighting?! That’s impossible!
Usopp: Blackbeard?
Dalton: What’s more, there are some here who believe it was good for the country.
Vivi: What could possibly be good about that happening?!
Usopp: That’s crazy! Who would say something like that anyway?!
Dalton: Thank you. I agree. But they have their reasons. The king who ruled before the attack was a horrible man. His rule was despised by all of its citizens. Our kingdom used to be known as Drum Kingdom and our king’s name was Wapol. He was the worst king imaginable.
*Usopp and Vivi suddenly remember he’s talking about the pirate that attacked their ship a while ago.*
Vivi: Yes, I remember him! I know that man!
Usopp: Not Wapol!

*Luffy’s group keep heading towards the mountain where the Dr. Kureha is said to live. With the weather becoming fierce.*
Luffy: It feels that it’s gotten a little colder. The wind’s picking up, too.
Sanji: So why don’t you think about putting on some real shoes? Seeing your feet like that is painful.
Morbius: Sandals aren’t appropriate for this kind of weather.
Luffy: No way! This is my police!
Sanji: Your “police”? I think you mean “Policy.”
Luffy: Yeah, that’s it.
*Something watches them from behind a tree.*
Luffy: So anyway, did you know this? Did you know people in snow countries never sleep at all.
Sanji: Huh? Why?
Luffy: Because if they do, they’ll freeze to death!
Morbius: That makes no sense, dude!
Sanji: Don’t be an idiot! Everyone has to sleep sometime.
Luffy: It’s the truth! Someone told me a long time ago!
*A large white rabbit jumps out from the trees and tries to attack them, but it misses and lands on the snow.*
Sanji: Who, Usopp?
Luffy: No, I heard it in a pub in my village.
Morbius: Do you really believe them?
Luffy: Yeah! If people tell you something fantastic it's gotta be true!
Morbius: … *sigh* I swear to god I hope you don't get exposed to the internet.
Sanji: Ok, then explain this: Why does that Dalton guy have a bed for?
*It tries to attack them again, but it misses and bites onto a tree instead.*
Luffy: I guess that’s a good point. Hey, maybe it’s for when he dies!
Sanji: That’s ridiculous!
Morbius: Why is that immediate answer!?
*The rabbit’s teeth chomp through the tree, cutting it down. It nearly falls on them but they keep going.*
Morbius: It’s obvious he uses it to sleep, moron!
Sanji: Did you know this? Women in snow countries have skin that’s as smooth as silk.
Luffy: How come?
Sanji: Isn’t it obvious? Here, when you get cold you rub your skin to get warm. It’s always freezing cold in countries like this so the women rub their skin all the time so it becomes silky smooth.
*The rabbit tries again and again to attack them, but keeps missing.*
Luffy: Ok, then how come it’s white?
Sanji: Because, the snow! It’s constantly falling all over. So it dyes their skin all white.
Luffy: Gee, you’re really dumb. You know that?
Sanji: Give me a break. Like you’re one to talk.
Morbius: I'm dealing with two idiots… What kind of life choices did I make to get to this…
*It tries once more to attack them, but Sanji kicks it away.*
Sanji: You’re a pain in my ass!
Mobius: Good riddance, it’s gone!
Luffy: Really, what was that thing?
Morbius: Just a rabbit.
Sanji: Nami, just hang in there a bit longer, ok? We’re gonna get you to a doctor, alright?
Luffy: The snow’s getting really deep around here.
Sanji: Hey, Luffy, try to run more smoothly! You’re just making it harder on Nami!
*Suddenly, they are confronted by a pack of Lapahns.*
Sanji: What are these things?
Luffy: Well, they’re big and they’re white. So they must be polar bears!
Morbius:… What are you supposed to do when confronted by a polar bear again?

*Back in the village*
Dalton: What’s that? You mean you know who Wapol is?
Usopp: We know who he is. We know more than that. He’s a pirate that attacked our ship not that long ago. But I was able to take care of him. Now that I think about it, I do remember something about him heading to Drum Kingdom.
Vivi: Yes, there’s no question about it now. I remember it clearly. I’m sure I met him at a monarch meeting my father took me to. I was still very young, but I remember it to this day.
Dalton: A monarch meeting? Who are you!
Vivi: Uh, no! I mean… The point is, we do know Wapol. We ran into him yesterday when we were on our way here.
Dalton: Yesterday? Are you sure about that?
Vivi: But then, I don’t understand what’s going on here. He said he was a pirate, he didn’t say anything about being a king.
Dalton: He’s just calling himself a pirate as some sort of disguise. In truth, Wapol is only wandering the seas trying desperately to return to this island.
Vivi: So then, Wapol and the people on his ship were kicked off the island because they were no match for the pirates? Is that it?
Dalton: That’s not it. No… When it happened, when we were attacked, Wapol’s army didn’t even try to fight! In fact, the second he learned how strong the pirates were, Wapol grabbed his cronies and ran like a coward! He was the first one to abandon the country out to sea! After that, the country fell into utter despair. We were left behind by our king!
Vivi: What sort of king would do that to his country?! A king abandoning his people! Just the thought of that makes me absolutely sick!
Usopp: Vivi…
Dalton: You’re exactly right. The one good thing that came out of it was the end of Wapol’s tyrannical rule. The people who were left on this island have come together now. We’re trying to create a new country. So what we fear the most is the return of Wapol and his followers. The return of his awful rule. We can’t afford to have him come back with the country so unstable, it would be the end of us. We want to build ourselves a new peaceful nation on this island.

*Back with Luffy’s group, the Lapahn pack leader lunges at them.*
Sanji: Look out!
*They manage to get out of the way.*
Morbius: For such a big animal, it sure is fast!
Sanji: Seriously, how can it move like that? Is it a gorilla?
Luffy: No, it’s a polar bear!
Sanji: It’s a rabbit!
Morbius: It’s no ordinary rabbit!
Luffy: How’d you go from gorilla to rabbit?
Sanji: He’s supposed to be the Lapahn that Dalton was telling us about.
Morbius: They sure are bigger than I imagined.
Sanji: Well, there sure are a lot of them.
Morbius: Maybe I should take a DNA Sample…

*Meanwhile, Chess sits atop the crow’s nest as Wapol’s ship sails the sea. He manages to spot the island where Drum Kingdom was located.*
Chess: Ooh! Wapol, come quickly!
Wapol: What is it, now?! Have you found that pirate’s ship yet?!
Chess: No, that isn’t it, Wapol! At long last, we’ve returned home!
Wapol: We have?!
Chess: How many long months have passed wandering the sea? That’s our homeland, its Drum Kingdom!
Wapol: It truly is! I can’t believe it!
