"ARGH! That's it!" Luffy yelled. "Oi, smoke guy!" He jabbed a finger towards Smoker. "Why do you keep chasing us all the time?"

"I'm a Marine. It's my job to arrest pirates," Smoker said stoically.

Luffy took a deep breath. Then he sat down on the deck of the Going Merry with his legs crossed and put his hands on his knees. "You know what? I'm really tired of getting chased around for no reason."

Smoker's eye twitched. "Like I said—"

"So tell you what," Luffy continued. "I'll let you arrest me."

"—it's my job…what?" Smoker stared at him, stunned.

"Oi, Luffy! What the heck are you doing?" Usopp asked, waving his arms up and down in panic. "Y-You can't be serious! You can't hand yourself in!"

"Oi, Luffy," Sanji said.

"BUT! Only on one condition!" Luffy crossed his arms.

"And what would that be?" Smoker asked his usual scowl back in place.

Luffy grinned. "Tell me what crime I'm being arrested for."

Smoker seemed momentarily taken back. "What?"

"I won't hand myself in unless you give me a reason," Luffy said, sticking his tongue out. "BLEUH."

Usopp sighed in relief. "So that's what it was." Sanji smirked, exhaling the smoke from his cigarette. Nami shook her head, but she was smiling too.

"So what's it going to be?" Zoro asked, a wicked grin on his face. "Because if you don't have a legitimate reason, we're just going to assume that the Marines arrest pirates for putting up flags on their ships."

"It's the skull and crossbones, I tell you," said Sanji, taking another drag on his cigarette. "The skull and crossbones are evil. Evil."

A vein appeared on Smoker's temple. "You."

"Y-Yes, sir?"

"Go fetch Straw Hat's file. Now."

"E-Eh? But sir…"

"I said now!"

"Y-Y-Yes sir!"

"…sir…"

"So, did you find it?"

"Yes…"

"So?"

"Well, that is, how to say…"

"Spit it out!"

"…the file is empty."

"…what?"

"…the file…it's empty…"

"WHAT?"

"They're pure evil, I tell you! Pure evil!"

"Shut it, dartbrow."
