The rowdy bar is only beaten by the rowdiness of the customers who walked in about 20 minutes ago. It's the pirate Mordy Jones, who recently became known across South Blue after raiding a marine ship, and his crew. "Can you quiet down already!?" The bartender finally yells, up until this point everybody in the bar seemed too afraid to say anything. The place is filled with silence for a few moments. Mordy downs his entire cup of beer then slams it on the counter. "And just who do you think you're talking to?" The pirate captain says as he grabs the bartender by his shirt. "If you did know I don't think you'd be using that tone with me!" Him and his entire crew of about 13 men who all couldn't be younger than 30, laughs as the bartender is filled with fear.

Mordy throws the bartender on the ground then throws his empty cup at his head, "We're gonna need all our beer for free now, though we weren't gonna pay from the beginning." Mordy says. The bartender looks like he is about to say something until a young boy shakes his head as if telling the bartender not to do anything. "What, a cat got your tongue?" Mordy laughs again, a blond-haired female began looking toward the pirate "How are you doing, beauty?" Mordy says to the girl who looked about 18 as she turns her head.

"Well, now you just messed up everything for yourself." The young boy steps in front of the table the girl is sitting at and takes Mordy's attention. "Who the fuck are you?" Mordy questions as he gets irritated by the boy's tone and sudden appearance out of seemingly nowhere. "That's something you don't need to know. But i'm almost insulted 'cause I know more things about you than you know about me." The boy claims, "Mordy Jones, bounty four million berries. Casualties 7, 6 marines and a little boy who just happened to be on that ship you raided last month." Everyone's attention is on the boy to see what he is going to do.

Mordy smirks, "That kid was annoying, and after that no more of those marines wanted to contest me, 'cause they understood that they were dealing with a true pirate...an outlaw to the entire world!" Jones claims, seeming proud of his actions. "Well, I guess you could consider me an outlaw too, but i'm no pirate and i'm definitely nothing like you!" The boy says. "Don't talk to captain like that, fool!" A pirate gets up and lunges at the boy with a knife.

The boy instinctively dodges and punches the pirate, landing his blow directly on his jaw, causing him to fall to the ground. Mordy chuckles to himself, "Now you're the one who messed up...get him boys!" all of Mordy's crew attacks the boy in a frenzy. No one could even touch him let alone land a punch, all of his attackers were KO'd with no more than a swift kick or elbow to the face.

Moments later, 13 men laid on the floor unconscious with everybody who watched the fight unfold in complete awe...if you could even call it a fight. Mordy gets up noticeably enraged "You good for nothings! All of you!". Mordy unsheathes his sword, "I guess i'll have to do it myself!". Mordy circles around the boy to make him afraid, and failing, then stops with his back to the doorway. Mordy then charges at the boy attempting a downward vertical strike with his blade. The boy doesn't attempt to evade but steps into the incoming blade and grabs Mordy's hands before he can complete the attack, leaving his sword pointing to the ceiling and him being unable to move his hands with the boys incredibly tight grip. "Bad move. I told you, you messed everything up for yourself. I recognized you but I didn't really feel like catching you but if you had just left the bartender alone and quieted down this wouldn't have happened." The boy says as blue flames swirled around his right hand with his left hand still clutched onto Mordy's hands, stopping his sword. "That blue fire...you're him...Zero the pirate hunter!" Mordy says as his face is filled with terror. "Bingo!" Zero throws his flame engulfed fist into Mordy's stomach sending him flying out of the doorway.

Zero quickly scans the bar before walking outside. About 8 marines has huddled around Mordy pointing guns at the pirate. Mordy is sitting upright clutching his stomach, a circular burn mark is present and the lower half of his shirt is ripped open exposing the wound. He must be pretty tough to not be knocked out completely I put a lot of power into that punch Zero thinks to himself before thinking where the hell did all these marines come from! . "You must be that pirate hunter who just got to town, welcome to Portgas." a slightly more decorated marine stands out among the rest, "I'm Edward, second-in-charge for the marines around here." Edward says while rubbing his nose.

"Uhh cool, so I guess you all were looking for him. I saved you a lot of trouble so if I can just get the 4 million berries i'll be on my way." Zero says completely uninterested in whatever Edward was talking about. Zero doesn't really like marines even though, with him being a hunter, he has to deal with them a lot. "Ok just go down to the marine's base, to get there just follow the path directly by the ship dock i'm sure you saw the path when you came. Also, can you help us with...well I shouldn't say without Commander's permission...if you're interested in taking home a little more coin talk to the Commander Hollman when you get to the base. It's a lot more than 4 million i'll tell you that now." Edward says to Zero while the other marines ties Mordy up with rope. "Thanks for catching him I know he would've been a pain in the ass for us if he stayed in play." Edward walks away but not before Zero tells him about the 13 pirates unconscious in the bar.

Zero looks back to the bar then looks around,

"Where did you go...mystery girl..."
