Chapter 3
One Day Before Arriving To The Navy Base...
The seagulls were cawing and flying all around the boat looking for a place to land on there when a certain carefree pirate was happy.
Monkey D. Luffy: What great weather!
Will McCarty: Yeah this beats nothing like enjoying the wind on my face,the sea breeze, and enjoying a normal person conversation with Koby!
Coby: Yeah!
As the three do what they do best Will makes a ration check and Luffy sitting in front of the boat and Coby checking the map to see if their heading in the right direction.
Coby: We should see the navy island base soon!
Will McCarty: Excellent.
Monkey D. Luffy: Wow, Coby! your amazing! We're going to reach out destination?
Coby: Of Course!
Will McCarty: That's why we need a navigator for this sort of thing!
Monkey D. Luffy: Yeah!
Coby: These things are the bare minimum sailors need!
Will McCarty: Wow, Coby you are a wealth of information about this sorta thing!
Coby looked at Will with approval.
Coby: Will-San...
Monkey D. Luffy: *HaHaHa*
Coby then lifts up his glasses and looked at Luffy at his carefree attitude.
Coby: This is no laughing matter he's being held prisoner there.
Luffy turns his head around and looks at Coby as Will shows an interest while keeping to their course, As Koby gets a serious look.
Coby: The famous Pirate Hunter Roronoa Zoro!
Coby P.O.V
Soon as the scene fades to black a sword cuts through it revealing Zoro in his stance with two swords in both hands and one of his eyes turned red like some sorta monster.
Coby: The man who chopped up bounties like a bloodthirsty beast, people say he's a demon in human form!
Third P.O.V
Will McCarty: Oh yeah? What heinous crime did he do to get locked up in there?
Coby: I don't know? But it must be bad if he's locked in there. Right?
Will McCarty: We'll shall see?
Soon they arrived at the navy base city where Zoro is being held as Luffy jumps out of the boat while Will ties up the boat.
Monkey D. Luffy: We made it! The navy base city!
Will: Yep let's go find this swordsman! (Why am I getting a feeling this won't be easy?)
As the three made its way into the city it was busy every one was happy as life went on in the city.
Coby: Seriously, Luffy-san! Your crazy if you want him to join you!
Will McCarty: Yeah Luffy! What if he kills us as soon as he gets out of prison or we break him out and have the navy hang us! With your head cut and me hanged!
Monkey D. Luffy: I haven't decided yet... I just want to see if he is a good person...
Coby: He's been caught by the navy because he's a bad guy!
Will McCarty: Did the navy issue why he's in for?
Coby: Well no?
Will McCarty: Then we meet him and then decide and then leave simple and clear and go somewhere else.
As they talk will notice Luffy grab some fruit and then ate it and then paid the peddler.
Monkey D. Luffy: Do you know if Zoro is at the base?
Soon he gasped and jumped back and everyone that was close by moved away like the plague. As Will looked around and noticed everyone was scared.
Coby: it seems the name "Zoro" is taboo around here...
Will McCarty: Y-Yeah... Luffy are you sure we should get him again?
Luffy left and went towards the building in the middle of the city.
Monkey D. Luffy: Yeah I do... Well let's check out the base anyway. Your going to be a marine, right Coby?
Coby: Y-Yes... But I'm not really ready yet but rumor has it that a guy named Captain Morgan is at the base, and...
Everyone there suddenly jumped back at the name in fear although it was a lot more scared than zoro name was called out. As they get away from the crowd while Luffy is laughing at their reactions.
Monkey D. Luffy: *HAHAHA* What a funny town!
Will McCarty: I wouldn't say funny more like scared beyond the rational capacity for thought is what. Which makes me question something...
Monkey D. Luffy: What's that?
Will McCarty: Why would the town fear the navy aren't they supposed to be protected by the government?
Coby: Yes I would understand Zoro, but why are they afraid of the navy Captain name.
Will McCarty: Maybe he's the trouble around here?
Coby: What? That doesn't make sense why would the Navy Captain cause trouble here?
Will McCarty: That depends... Maybe he is a ugly looking man and his face spreads enough terror throughout the city.
Coby: no I don't think so?
Monkey D. Luffy: Maybe they like to jump for fun
Coby: Nobody would do that!
Will McCarty: Let's just find zoro and get out of here. *sobing* I wish I was safe in my own home!
Coby: Say you never told us where you came from? Can you tell us?
Luffy was interested as well he didn't know anything about him but he could tell that he was a good person and he was the first crew member he had. Will didn't know what to say...
Will McCarty : Well I come from a huge landmass that are called... "Countries" and there are seven huge islands that support multiple Towns instead of one on every island.
Coby and Luffy were very interested in that as they made their way towards the base.
Coby: Wow that sounds cool why haven't we heard of them?
Will McCarty: Well there in the... Grand Line and their very very secretive and don't like outsiders very much!
He gave them a smile in hopes that it could fool them and it did for Luffy.
Monkey D. Luffy: WOW! You must be very strong in order to get here right!
Coby: I don't know Luffy he doesn't seem that kinda person from the grand line.
As Luffy looks at him and noticed that his clothes are weird and he doesn't look very strong.
Monkey D. Luffy: Say are you really from the grand line?
...
...
Will McCarty: Yes.
Luffy then formed a smile and there was a twinkle over his head and went forward towards the navy base.
Monkey D. Luffy: That is so cool! I can't wait to see the grand line with my own eyes!
Coby/Will: He's so easy...
As everyone arrived at the navy base gate that said marine in the front and were standing in front of it Koby cried and knew that they would part ways.
Monkey D. Luffy: alright! this is the place!
Will McCarty:(*Sarcatic* Really I didn't notice...)
Coby: I'm really here!...I guess this is where we part ways Luffy-San...Will-San
Will McCarty: Coby no matter what happens when you enter the Navy we will be enemies but we will always treasure your company and may we see each other having a nice cold drink.
Coby: *Sobbing*... I know it's been a short time but!
As Will looked at Coby with a smile and Coby was crying at the fact that he is going to follow his dream until he noticed Luffy wasn't paying attention and then he was immediately looking for a way to get inside to see zoro.
Monkey D. Luffy: Upsy-Daisy!
Will McCarty: Luffy what are you doing?!
Monkey D. Luffy: Where is this Demon?!
He looked over the wall as Will went up to try to get Luffy down while Coby was on the ground.
Coby: He wouldn't be out there I'm sure he's in a prison cell...
Monkey D. Luffy: There he is! Alright!
Will McCarty: Luffy wait for me!
As Luffy saw two people crucified in the yard as the sun scorched them and scuff marks on their clothes one had a black bandanna and green waist band and black pants and boots while the other had a black Stetson hat and ruined pants and his feet were scuffed and his shirt was dry red blood and white at the bottom near the pants Feet and his hair was Cardinal red. When he saw them like they half dead in the yard and he went wide eyed and Coby was following them.
Monkey D. Luffy: Look there he is!
Coby: Yeah right! He wouldn't be out- *GASP*
As they looked at them and noticed they had scuff marks and dry blood marks on them.
Coby: (Black hood and a haramaki... Thats Roronoa Zoro!)
Monkey D. Luffy: He can get away easy if we untie those ropes!
Will/Coby: Don't be stupid Luffy!
Coby: There no way to tell what'll happen if we let him loose?!
Will McCarty: Yeah we tell him that, the two of us are Pirates we can kiss our necks goodbye!
Coby: Yeah what he said!
Luffy: Don't worry! I'm strong!
Coby/Will:(*Sobbing* This guy!)
?: Hey, you guys... your an eyesore...Get lost!
As Coby and Will was getting scared and Luffy was a neutral look.
Coby: Luffy-San! There is no way you can live with him you on the crew!
Will McCarty: Yeah Luffy please you gotta listen to reason on this I suggest we get off this island and-
?: *SSSSHHHH*!
Soon his talk with Luffy was interrupted by a little girl on a ladder showing up beside them as they get a good look who would be on the ladder it was nothing more then a little girl no more then 8 years old. As she made her way over towards the demon swordsman Coby started to panic.
Coby: Oh no! Stop her, Luffy-San... Will-San!
Will was about to do something but Luffy was stopped him.
Will McCarty: Luffy?
Monkey D. Luffy: I want to see what he's going to do!
Will McCarty: She's probably going to be killed! I believe that-
Luffy gave Will to trust me look and as his crew member he has to follow his captain no matter what.
Will McCarty: Yes Captain.
As Will was ready in case things go sideways as she was halfway towards Zoro and the other guy with something in her hands.
Roronoa Zoro: What?
Little girl: You two must be hungry so I made you both rice balls.
This perked the other guys attention on food as she opens her bag.
Roronoa Zoro: Do you want to be killed pipsqueak? Scram!
?: Did you say rice balls?!
Little girl: Yeah!
?: Zoro we have food!
Roronoa Zoro: I don't care about that but she needs to leave before-
Little girl: You two haven't eaten this whole time! This is my first time, But I worked really hard on them!
Zoro face turns to surprise when she said that she worked hard on them as the same expression goes on the red head guy as well.
Roronoa Zoro: I ain't hungry! You're an eyesore! Get the hell out of here!
?: Yeah we ain't hungry little girl beat it! *Whispers* But secretly give them to us we're hungry!
Little girl: But...
Roronoa Zoro: don't want 'em! Don't make me kick your ass!
?: Zoro we got company to the left!
As the other one warns zoro about the navy soldiers and some kid in some swanky outfit.
?: It's not nice to be a bully!
?: *Sarcastic* and I suppose you know what that is don't you Helmeppo!
The kid named Helmeppo laughed about the two's situation as they are in while zoro turned his head and looked at him with a hateful glare.
Helmeppo: You two seem surprisingly well Roronoa Zoro, Winchester Arthur...
Monkey D. Luffy: There's another weird guy!
Will McCarty: Your even more weirder Luffy!
Coby: Thank goodness! He must be from the Navy! Now that girl is now safe!
Will was relieved that she will be safe... Until.
Helmeppo: Wow those are tasty-looking rice ball.
As he takes one and chews on it without listening to the little girl.
Little girl: Stop!
As he was chewing he was tasting in and began to swallow but then his face turned to disgust before turning to anger.
Helmeppo: AAAAHHH! It's to damn sweet! Those are full of sugar! Your supposed to use salt for rice balls!
Little Girl: But I thought that they might taste better sweet..
As Helmeppo got mad at the rice balls were made while she tried to stop him.
Helmeppo: Take this! And this! And that!
Little girl: Stop! Stop!
Coby: H-How horrible!
As Helmeppo was stomping on them and when he lift up his foot it showed the "Sweeten Rice Balls" and they were dirty and disgusting and the little girl that was crying at all of her hard work was destroyed.
Little girl: *Sobbing* And I worked so hard to make those...
Helmeppo: Did you not read the notice?
As he pulled a piece of paper out of his shirt as he read the words on it.
Helmeppo: "Those who help criminals will be executed!" Signed Navy Captain Morgan
This scared the little girl that she could die.
Helmeppo: Looks Like brats even know how scary my dad is!
Luffy/Will: Dad?
Coby: Then that must be captain Morgan son?!
Helmeppo: You. Throw her out.
Marine 1: Sir?!
Helmeppo: I said throw her over the wall! Or can you not follow my orders?! Don't make me tell my dad!
Marine 1: Y-Yes sir! Sorry sir!
As he made his way towards the girl that was scared on what might happen and crouched next to her.
Little girl: No!
Marine 1: *whispers* I'm sorry, little girl. Curl yourself into a ball!
Little girl: Huh?
As the Marine throw her over the wall where Luffy, Will, and Koby watching the whole thing.
Little girl: AAAAAAAHHHHHH...
Luffy went and grabbed her with his Devil Fruit powers and saved her from a rough fall and Will and Coby rushed right towards Luffy to see if she was hurt.
Little girl: T-Thank you!
Coby: Are you ok Luffy-San?!
Will McCarty: Little Girl are you injured?! Anything broken?!
Little girl: N-No...
Will McCarty: Good that is the important thing.
Coby: I can't believe how horrible that guy is!
Luffy picked up his hat and looked at the wall where he was looking over...
Meanwhile Roronoa Zoro P.O.V
Zoro and Arthur looked at Helmeppo with angry and wanted to beat him up to a bloody pulp.
Roronoa Zoro: You Bastard!
Arthur Winchester: You didn't need to do something so cruel to her she was a kid!
Helmeppo: *HeHeHeHeHe* You both talk about how you both are going to stay alive!
Roronoa Zoro: Yeah we both will live the full month
Arthur Winchester: Which we will be thankful for Helmeppo!
Helmeppo: Well, Good luck with that.
As he continues to laugh and soon his marine guards came with him followed him and made his way inside the base.
Roronoa Zoro: Ten days left, you know!
Helmeppo: Assuming you can live that long!
Arthur and zoro looked at him for the last time...
As Coby and Will was taking care of the little girl who was scared that she could've been hurt seriously.
Coby: How can he be so cruel!
Will McCarty: Power is what I say, it corrupts people to think that they are untouchable and this is the type that my country hates the most. Luffy we need a plan to find another-
As he looks around to find Luffy he's nowhere to be found. As Coby noticed will stop mid sentence and then noticed Luffy was missing.
Coby: Where did Luffy-San go?!
Will McCarty: I know where.
Coby: Huh?
As Will looks at the wall then Coby followed his gaze and immediately understand what he meant...
Inside the Courtyard Zoro was looking down when he felt something was watching him and it showed that Luffy was inside the courtyard and looking right at him with a neutral face.
Monkey D. Luffy: I hear you're a bad guy.
Roronoa Zoro: Kid your still here?
Monkey D. Luffy: Being stuck out here for all to see...are you really strong at all?!
Roronoa Zoro: Mind your business!
As Luffy walked closer towards Zoro.
Monkey D. Luffy: If it was me I would starve in three days!
Roronoa Zoro: I got a lot more spirit than you. I will survive this... I swear it!
Monkey D. Luffy: What a strange person!
As he left zoro stopped Luffy.
Roronoa Zoro: Hey hold on. Could you pick that up for me?
As they looked down to see the dirty rice ball as Luffy kneels down and picks it up.
Monkey D. Luffy: Your gonna eat this? It's a muddy ball now.
Roronoa Zoro: Just shut up and give it here!
Luffy wasn't sure it was a good idea to give a dirty Rice Ball... but zoro ate it and soon swallow the rice ball and coughed at it being so dirty.
Roronoa Zoro: *Cough* *Cough*
Monkey D. Luffy: I told you so.
Roronoa Zoro: It was good. Thanks for the food.
Arthur Winchester: *ZZZZZZ* *ZZZZZZ* *ZZZZZbt* Huh, you said food? is it over?
Roronoa Zoro: No not yet.
Arthur Winchester: Oh wake me when we are free. *ZZZZZZZ*
Monkey D. Luffy: That guy is very weirdly calm about this.
Roronoa Zoro: Don't let his look fool you he's tough like me.
As he smiles at the two thinking that these two would be perfect for his crew. As he made it out of the base and into the alleyway where Coby and Will was waiting with the girl. As she told her name to Coby and Will when she calmed down and her name was Rika. As Luffy told her that the two loved her rice balls.
Rika: Really?!
Monkey D. Luffy: Yeah! He ate every last bite of it!
Rika: That's so good!
Coby: Is Zoro really evil as the rumors say?
Rika: No!
As Rika explained to them why the two were imprisonment because of them and for threatening Helmeppo and his pet and for hurting him and he said that they would burn down her mom's home and kill them and he would use his fathers name so they bared the cross for their sins. (A/N: It's in the previous chapter)
Rika: It's been three weeks. Helmeppo punches and kicks them while they are still tied up! I... I...
Coby: I see...
Will McCarty: Zoro was the one who was saving you from the pet helmeppo got and the other guy saved you. By the way who is he?
Rika: I don't remember but he was very happy to be alive he even ordered drinks for everyone.
As they were all in deep thought on what to do next they heard a glass breaking and it was immediately where Rika mom works and Helmeppo was there causing trouble as he does for the town everyday.
Helmeppo: *Hehehehe* I'm hungry! Let us eat for free!
As he is being guarded by two marines a certain Orange haired girl was sitting down and drinking her drink she wore a blue striped and white shirt with tangerine slices on her shorts and boots on her feet and listening to Helmeppo give out orders as two people walk in and see what they only assume was Helmeppo...
Helmeppo: Hey bring me some booze!... Quit dawdling! Hurry it up!... Oh yes I've been bored lately so remember what I said to you guys Zoro is to be executed tomorrow and today is for this "Arthur" character look forward to it. *HeHeHeHe*
This enraged Luffy so much that helmeppo would turn his back on a deal made by him that they would be let out if they survived the month... as Luffy did a full sprint and immediately punched Helmeppo in the face and sent him flying into the wall. This shocked everyone except for Will because he was also angry at Helmeppo.
Helmeppo: W-What are you doing?!
Coby: Luffy-San! Please Stop!
Monkey D. Luffy: This guy is Scum!
Helmeppo: Y-You hit me! I'm Captain Mor-
He soon wasn't finished his sentence when a flying stool hit him in the face and knocked him out cold. As everyone looked who threw it was none other than Will his eyes were covered in shadow and his arm was out indicating he threw something at high speed and he had a hateful look on his face. As Helmeppo got back up even in more pain then before and a few broken teeth missing and his nose is bleeding indicating it was broken as Helmeppo looked who threw it and got angry.
Helmeppo: YOU BASTARD YOU BROKE MY TEETH AND MY NOSE DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I' AM?! MY NAME IS HELMEPPO AND MY FATHER IS CAPTAIN MORGAN OF THIS HERE NAVY BASE! I'LL TELL MY DAD AND HAVE YOU TWO EXECUTED!
Monkey D. Luffy: Then fight me yourself!
Coby: Luffy-San...Will-San... Calm down are you two trying to get on the navy's bad side?!
Monkey D. Luffy: I made up my mind Koby...
Will McCarty: Me too...
Monkey D. Luffy: I'm going to get Zoro join my crew!
Will McCarty: And we're gonna bust him out!
As Luffy left leaving behind Coby and Will behind.
Will McCarty: Wait Luffy come back!
Coby: Luffy-San!
Meanwhile back in the Navy Base
Inside the navy base having a smoke while sitting down on his chair, on his cape is the Word Captain on it and has a metal underbite as he talks to himself.
?: I am... GREAT!
Marine: Yes you are exactly right, Captain Morgan Sir!
The man identified as captain Morgan is looking outside and decided to ask another question to his subordinate.
Captain Morgan: But hasn't Tribute to me a bit lacking lately?
Marine: W-Well the citizens wallet do have their limits...
Captain Morgan: The issue is their level of respect for me. Wouldn't you Agree?
As the scene changes to a pair of white shoes running through the Hallway and then making whoever it is running towards coming closer to captain Morgan study it was soon revealed Helmeppo and his face looked like some one took a baseball bat to it and holding both his hands on his badly scuffed face while breathing heavy.
Helmeppo: Daddy... There is a couple people I want you to slaughter!
Meanwhile in the Courtyard...
Zoro was looking down and Arthur was looking down as well and got board and decided to ask Zoro a question...
Arthur Winchester: Hey...
Roronoa Zoro: Yeah?
Arthur Winchester: Do you remember why we're here?
Roronoa Zoro: We made the wrong person angry and we're here in this courtyard for a month.
Arthur Winchester: No,No I don't mean that, I meant is there more to life then what we know or something. I don't know do you?
Roronoa Zoro: no? What's your point?
Arthur Winchester: What I'm saying maybe fate brought us together for something important.
Roronoa Zoro:...
Arthur Winchester:...
Roronoa Zoro:...
Arthur Winchester: Oh what I'm I saying I think the heat is getting to me, by the way did I mention that I stare at the ground for so long and I sometimes see food in front of me and the food is right on top of the rock.
Zoro was starting to worry about him as he was about to say something he saw a shadow and it was the same kid that fed him the "dirty sweet rice ball".
Roronoa Zoro: You again?
Arthur Winchester: Zoro you know him?
Roronoa Zoro: Yes he's the guy I said was bothering me.
Arthur Winchester: Oh great...I thought I was hallucinating this or we were having joint hallucinations which is never good.
Monkey D. Luffy: *Hahaha* Your weird
Arthur Winchester: Yeah I've been told that as well.
Roronoa Zoro: You sure have a lot of free time. What do you want?
Monkey D. Luffy: I'll untie you two so join my crew.
Zoro/Arthur: say what?
Monkey D. Luffy: I'm looking for people to join my pirate crew.
This immediately made zoro and Arthur want to drop this chance seeing how Pirates operates because they were bounty hunters and Pirate hunters.
Roronoa Zoro: FORGET IT! Me stopping down to a criminal level?!
Arthur Winchester: Yeah! What he said!
Luffy: What's wrong with being a pirate!?
Roronoa Zoro: Pirates are despicable! As if I'd ever join one!
Arthur Winchester: I may be hungry for food and tired but there is no way I work for some Pirate who kills innocent or raze towns for loot. So get out of here before we drag you into the navy ourselves or worse...
Monkey D. Luffy: Oh come on! Your already known as a evil bounty Hunter, and you don't have a title for yourself as a pirate hunter as well.
Arthur Winchester: I don't care if people don't know me!
Roronoa Zoro: And people can say what ever they want, I haven't done anything I regret! I will live through this and accomplish what I want!
Monkey D. Luffy: ...Yeah? well I already decided to let you two join my crew!
Zoro/Arthur: QUIT DECIDING ON YOUR OWN!
Monkey D. Luffy: I here you use swords... and you use guns?
Arthur Winchester: Only when they leave me no choice.
Roronoa Zoro: And besides their in the Navy base and no way you can get them on your own.
Monkey D. Luffy: I can get them...
Arthur Winchester: What?
Monkey D. Luffy: I can get them and in return you two join my crew!
Roronoa Zoro: Your starting to get on my nerves!
As Luffy left leaving zoro and Arthur in disbelief on him busting into a Navy base all by himself but... he is going the wrong way.
Roronoa Zoro: You idiot the base is the other way!
Monkey D. Luffy: Huh?
Arthur Winchester: He's gonna get caught and probably killed.
Roronoa Zoro: Yeah...
Monkey D. Luffy: GUM-GUM ROCKET!
Luffy stretch his arms right in front of them and blasted off like a rocket.
Zoro: What was that? Did he just...(Who the hell is that guy?)
Meanwhile in the base on the roof...
As everyone there that's a marine is pulling up a statue that looked exactly like Captain Morgan as they put it halfway up there...
Marines: Heave Ho, Heave Ho, Heave Ho...
Captain Morgan: alright STOP right there!... Stand it up in one shot!
Then came Helmeppo right behind his father who is currently looking at a statue of himself.
Helmeppo: Dad! Why aren't you going out there and getting revenge?! The guys hit me! Not even you hit me in the face or threw stuff at me!
Morgan: ... Do you know why I never had to hit you before?
This got Helmeppo attention and began to sweat from that reaction from his father.
Helmeppo: Eh? Because you think I'm-
Morgan: Yes. Because you're...
Then Morgan did something that everyone at the base got scared of he hit his own son and sent him flying into the edge of the roof as he brandished his axe for everyone to see.
Morgan:... a stupid son who isn't even worth hitting!
As he made his way to his son and Helmeppo began to get scared as he made his way towards him.
Morgan: Don't get the wrong idea!
Helmeppo: EEEEEEEEEE!
As Morgan grabs his son with his Axe hand and tells him how great he is as he is crying.
Morgan: Your dad is the one who is great! ME!
As he dropped him down he turns around and had more orders to give out to his men.
Morgan: Which reminds me, I heard a rat snuck into the cruxifixion yard.
Helmeppo: I-I-If you mean that pipsqueak, I made sure she was delt with-
Morgan: You mean killed her, I hope?!
Helmeppo: N-No I mean she is a little girl...
Morgan: You there!
As he pointed to his Lieutenant that was in charge of the base and he became worried what was about to happen next.
Morgan: Go into town and eliminate her!
Lieutenant: You can't be Serious! She's just a little girl! I can't in good Conscience...
As Morgan faces his Lieutenant with his axe held and walks towards him.
Morgan: Anyone who disobey my orders is a traitor, even the little brats.
Lieutenant: B-But... I can't do it!
Morgan: hmmm...
As Morgan raised his axe in front of him and then brought it down on his lieutenant and then he slammed it on him with his blunt end and fell down to the ground unconscious.
Helmeppo: AAAAIIIIIEEEE!
Marines: Lieutenant!
Helmeppo; Y-You didn't have to go that far!
As Morgan tells them how he rose to rank to captain.
Morgan: It was with my strength that I rose to my rank as captain! Listen! In this world, titles mean everything! That means I, the captain and highest ranking officer at this Base! I am the most superior person here! So everything I do is right! ISN'T THAT RIGHT!
As everyone there shows fear and knew that he had gone mad with power of him being great and now everyone on this island are scared and no one is safe the only thing they could do to survive is to follow his orders no matter how terrible they are.
Marines: YES, SIR! YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!
Morgan: The kid's death can wait for now, OBSERVE! This is a symbol of my authority, which it took many years to finally complete! Now, STAND IT UP!
As the marines got back to work in setting up Morgan statue of himself.
Marines: Heave Ho, Heave Ho, Heave Ho...
Morgan: Display my Greatness at the top of the base!
Meanwhile back with Will and Coby...
Will and Coby are next to the marine base wall where zoro was being held and came up with a plan without Luffy.
Will McCarty: Damn Luffy went to far ahead to face Captain Morgan and Helmeppo and to save Zoro.
Coby: Will-San What do we do now?
As Will began to form a plan with what to do now he knows that Luffy gonna fight for zoro and going to somehow convince him to join but how it didn't matter that what Luffy does, once in the base all the prisoners there will face execution for planning a prison break... then he had an idea but he didn't want to involve Coby because it might ruin his chance in getting into the marines.
Will McCarty: Alright Coby here is the plan while Luffy looks for a way to fight Helmeppo and Captain Morgan I are going to free zoro and anyone else that are unjustly imprisoned starting with Zoro!
Coby: Ok Will-san! But what will I do?
Will McCarty: Ok you stay here and keep out of sight.
Coby: I-I want to help!
Will McCarty: No, I can't let you ruin your dream of becoming a marine!
Coby: SHUT UP!
After Coby yelled at him Will had a surprise look to him he didn't expect him to be yelled at by him and he did shut up and listen to him as he cried and stated his case on why he needs to help.
Coby: *Sobbing* No I can't do that Will-san... I-I can't stand by and watch as people suffer at the hands of the Navy. I-I want to be a Honorable marine that protects everyone.
Will took in everything Coby said and smiles at him and knows that he going to follow him no matter what.
Will McCarty: Alright Coby but follow me right away and stay behind me and watch my back as we go in ok.
As he smiles at him and cleans his face of tears and snot he immediately smiles.
Coby: Yes!
Will McCarty: Alright now we need a distraction that will be suitable to us.
CCRRAAASSSHHH*
Will McCarty: What was that?
As they looked and saw a statue of the top body someone that Had an axe and metal mouth soon break down to the ground floor as they looked up to see where it fell down then they heard a voice that sounded really mad at someone.
?: SEIZE HIM! I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!
Will McCarty: Well that is one way of handling a distraction. Now let's go!
Coby: Yes!
As they made their way to zoro and the other prisoner they didn't sense two someones hiding behind the second wall as shadows cover them they immediately smile and wait for a chance to strike.
Five minutes ago with Luffy in the base..
Luffy was Running around the base looking for Helmeppo because that was the last one who knew where zoro and Arthur's weapons are but for some reason he couldn't find anyone that could help him find them or Helmeppo.
Monkey D. Luffy: That's weird. There's no one here... I gotta find that stupid son and get Zoro sword's and the weird guys guns back.
At the top of the base the marines were pulling Captain Morgan statue up slowly but at a steady pace while Morgan standing by the side observing the amount of work being done.
Marines: Heave Ho, Heave Ho...
As they began to pull up one of the hands from the statue bumped into the rooftop of the navy base as one of the marines realized that it was low and panicked because it was not supposed to be damaged in any possible and the marine that was responsible for the damage got scared but soon turned around and saw Captain Morgan Brandishing his axe towards him.
Morgan: YOU THERE!
Marine: *YELPING*!
Morgan: You bumped it, didn't you?!
As Luffy heard something from below the sound came from the roof.
Monkey D. Luffy: Huh? I heard something up there...
Back with the marine that was panicking as Morgan came up behind him.
Marine: I-I'M SORRY, SIR! I WAS CARELESS!
Morgan: I told you to think of this statue as me! The Slightest scratch or dirt is treachery against me!
Back with Luffy...
Monkey D. Luffy: I'll just check it out.
As he stretched his arm up to the roof and prepare to use his Gum-Gum Powers and slingshot his way up there.
Monkey D. Luffy: GUM-GUM... ROCKET!
As Morgan raised his axe and was planning to kill the marine.
Morgan: Now you PAY!
As he said that Luffy went way to far and was flying over the base.
Monkey D. Luffy: I WENT TO FAR!
As Morgan and everyone else saw Luffy they stopped what they were doing and questioned who was he.
Marine 2: What was that?
Marine 3: It flew up from below?
Monkey D. Luffy: I STOPPED!
Soon Luffy found a rope and grabbed it and stopped... Soon it was at this rope Luffy caught was part of the Statue that Morgan raised from the ground up. As everyone was trying to hold it up but soon every rope came undone and only the shoulders and torso was holding until half of the body was cut in half and made its way down to the ground. Leaving everyone shocked including Morgan who spent all his years making that statue as Luffy landed and knows what he did as he sweating behind his head.
Monkey D. Luffy: S-Sorry...
CCRRAASSHHH*
This made Morgan very angry and orders his marines to capture him.
Morgan: SEIZE HIM! I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!
Marines: YES, SIR! RIGHT AWAY!
Helmeppo: DAD! THAT'S HIM! THATS ONE OF THE GUYS THAT HIT ME!
Monkey D. Luffy: Oh! It's You!
Luffy showed up in front of Helmeppo out of nowhere and grabbed him as he was trying to run away crying.
Monkey D. Luffy: I've been looking for you! Come with me there's something I want you to give back!
As Luffy makes his way into the base with Helmeppo begging him to let go.
Helmeppo: L-Let me go!
Marines: HELMEPPO-SAMA!
Morgan: After him! Don't let him escape!
Marine: Captain! There are two individuals in the crucifixion yard!
Morgan: What?!
As two individuals jump over the wall and make their way to the crucifixion yard while Morgan and a handful of marines see them and await orders from their captain as he is furious with how many traitors on the island.
Morgan: It's one traitor after another...
Meanwhile inside the base...
There was the same orange haired girl that stole from Alvida and began to hand pick the lock when marines were running through the hallway.
Marine 3: After him! After him!
Marine 4: Hurry!
As she heard voices coming from the hallway she immediately pushed her back on the wall and hoped no one saw her.
Thief: *whispers* Someone had to interrupt...
As she knew if she stayed there she would be captured so she left the area...
Meanwhile in another part of the base...
Luffy was dragging Helmeppo around like a doll and asked him where Zoro swords are and Arthur's guns.
Monkey D. Luffy: Hey where is Zoro sword and the weird guys guns are?
Helmeppo: I'll tell you! I'll tell you! Just stop dragging me!
Monkey D. Luffy: Alright! Talk!
Helmeppo: *SOBBING* In my room... We just passed it...
Monkey D. Luffy: What? Why didn't you say so? Now we have to go back.
As Luffy was about to go in the other direction he was stopped by three marines.
Marine 5: FREEZE!
Marine 6: Let Helmeppo-sama go!
Monkey D. Luffy: No.
As Luffy turns around and brought Helmeppo in front of him and Helmeppo face had a neutral look to him until he heard what Luffy suggested.
Monkey D. Luffy: Go ahead and shoot, if you dare!
Helmeppo: AAAAAHHHH! NO! DON'T!
As Luffy use Helmeppo as a human shield to block any shots in front of him and make his way towards Helmeppo room as he can do nothing but cry at his situation and beg for help to anyone who would listen.
Meanwhile in the crucifixion yard...
Coby was untying Zoro while Will was untying Arthur.
Coby: Please escape, zoro-san!
Roronoa Zoro: You two will be killed for doing that, you know!
Will McCarty: Well from what we heard from the little girl the same could be said for you!
Arthur Winchester: We chose to pick our fights! You look like you two scare easy so why do yourself a favor and go back home!
Will McCarty: We won't... I can't stand and watch good people and innocent people in harms way.
Coby: And I can't stand to watch the navy like this anymore. I want to be an honorable Marine.
Arthur Winchester: Wow... a couple of minutes later and these two have guts to pull this off like that kid Luffy that came through here.
Will/Coby: HE WAS HERE!
Arthur Winchester: Yeah came through here like a rocket stretched his arms like nothing I have seen before.
Will McCarty: Ok it doesn't matter, what matters is saving you two!
Roronoa Zoro: STOP! We can't escape! We got ten days until-
Will McCarty: You won't make it in ten days because both of you will die! You two are to be executed today and tomorrow!
Roronoa Zoro: What?!
Arthur Winchester: I should've known...
Coby: Helmeppo never once intended to keep honor your agreement! So Luffy-San and Will-San got angry and punched and threw a chair at him!
Roronoa Zoro: He did?
Arthur Winchester: those two kid's got a lot of guts to do something like that!
Will McCarty: There got you out now onto you zoro!
Coby: The navy is after Luffy-San and Will-San now.
Will McCarty: We won't ask you to be Pirates but Luffy does need your help and you need us too.
As they both Zoro and Arthur look at them with seriousness expression as they finished untying Zoro and feels his hands and his grip as he gives them a nod to tell them he's ok and before they could help Luffy they were stopped.
Captain Morgan: HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!
As they looked right there to only face a firing squad and then Captain Morgan was behind them as he made his way towards them.
Morgan: For the crime of treachery against me, I'll execute all four of you right where you stand!
As all of them had a shocked look on their faces.
Meanwhile back inside the base...
As soon the door opens there was a sign outside the room with pink flowers and a sign that said "My Room" Luffy came in with Helmeppo
Monkey D. Luffy: Is this where your room is?!
Everything inside was girly as there were white marble columns pink drapes and as Luffy was looking around for two pistols and three swords next to the pink chair that was by a window.
Monkey D. Luffy: Bingo! But there are three? Hey! Can you tell me which are Zoro's?
As he looks at Helmeppo there are black swirls for his eyes indicating that he passed out due to everything that has happened.
Monkey D. Luffy: Oh he passed out.
As he made his way towards the window and saw what was happening down there there was Captain Morgan and a firing squad of marines prepared to shoot Will, Zoro, Arthur, and Coby
Monkey D. Luffy: Coby!
Meanwhile back in the crucifixion yard...
Coby was getting scared as he tried to put on a brave face as guns were facing towards everyone that was trying to escape and look for Luffy. Then Morgan begins to talk.
Morgan: This is some interesting stuff you guys have pulled off! Were you four and the straw hat planning a coup or something?!
Roronoa Zoro: I always fight alone!
Arthur Winchester: So do I!
Will McCarty : I am here to save Zoro!
Roronoa Zoro: Unlike Arrogant bastards like you who uses soldiers like cronies!
Arthur Winchester l: Or the fact that you think your superior above everyone else here on this island that can't even defend themselves and not only that mistreat the soldiers the same as well! Your the type of Navy people I hate the most!
As some of the marines begin to lower their riffles a little bit and some of them kept it on them as they told them what Captain Morgan is.
Will McCarty: I have to let you know I have heard of people like you before and it doesn't end well for them!
As Captain Morgan got sick and tired of listening to them.
Morgan: Roronoa Zoro... Don't you underestimate me. You may be dying. But before my authority, You're hood as scum!
As Will take a few steps forward and is in front of everyone there as Morgan and the Marines look towards him and Zoro, Coby, Arthur looked at him and thought that he was Nuts standing in front of them.
Will McCarty: NO! ...You say this you're authority but from what I can tell you use the Soldiers here as your own personal army and threaten the very people here on this island and when someone doesn't do what their told to do you start to throw a tantrum like a Little baby. So far from what I have seen You're the most egotistical scum in the Navy and if the navy can't punish you then I will myself .
...
...
Arthur Winchester: (He beat me to the punch!)
Roronoa Zoro: (I can't believe that someone who isn't even a threat could be so brave in front of the navy)
While everyone behind Will was shocked by his impressive bravery and courage to tell of Morgan while having a stoic face and not showing any fear but on the inside.
Will McCarty :...(OH MY GOD WHAT AM I SAYING TO HIM AND IN FRONT OF A FIRING SQUAD.)
As he begins to have seconds thoughts it was something Luffy said to Coby that made him stood his ground against him "It's not about whether I can or not. I've decided to be the king of the Pirates, So if I die fighting for that, that's fine with me!"
Morgan: (This Runt is making a mockery of me...) You there Boy... What is Your name so I my write it on your tombstone.
As Will gives them a minute before he gives a carefree smile to them.
Will McCarty: The Names William McCarty but I like it when everyone calls me Will!
Before he gets even more serious on his face and prepare to fight them hand to hand combat.
Will McCarty: and I'm not Going to die Here! I'M GOING TO SAVE ZORO AND ARTHUR, HELP COBY, AND FIND LUFFY AND MAKE SURE HE BECOMES THE KING OF PIRATES!
As Zoro and Arthur were looking to where Will was and was shocked on his loyalty was over the top and was willing to die for them and for Luffy.
Coby: *Sobing*(Will-San is so cool as Luffy-San!)
Arthur Winchester: (This kid got real Loyalty... This Luffy character must be real important to him.)
Morgan didn't care for him or his belief in his Captain so he ordered his troops.
Morgan: Men take aim!
As they took aim on them they couldn't do anything except make last wishes in their heads.
Roronoa Zoro: (I... Can't afford to die here!)
Arthur Winchester:(This is one of the deaths that I imagined!)
Coby:(I can't die yet I haven't even got into the navy!)
Will McCarty: (My only regret is that I have never kissed a girl or made love to a girl!)
Meanwhile back inside Helmeppo room...
Luffy saw the whole thing and decided to intervene quickly when he put the swords around his shoulder and guns around his waist.
Monkey D. Luffy: GUM-GUM... ROCKET!
Meanwhile back in the Crucifixion Yard...
As they were trying to cope with what will be their last stand as Morgan is preparing for his marines to open fire on them and they were.
Morgan: FIRE!
CRASH*
Then Will heard a crash and saw Luffy flying over the marines and then speeding his way right towards them.
Monkey D. Luffy: AAAIIIEEE!
BANG* *BANG*
As everyone closed their eyes to await the inevitable outcome... but for some reason Luffy landed right in front of them and took the bullets.
Roronoa Zoro: What are you-?!
Arthur Winchester: KID NO-?!
Will/Coby: -LUFFY?!/ -LUFFY-San?!
Morgan: Straw Hat?!
Soon all the bullets that the marines shot in front of Luffy as he crossed his arms and all the bullets began to stretch is body in different areas of where he was shot shocking the marines.
Monkey D. Luffy: *Hehe*
As he released his crossed arms and all the bullets bounced back at the marines and one bullet went by Captain Morgan
Monkey D. Luffy: THAT DOSEN'T WORK!
Will McCarty: Luffy! Your alive!
Monkey D. Luffy: *HAHAHA* I told you I was strong!
Will McCarty: Your a godsend my friend!
Roronoa Zoro: Who are you people!
As Luffy and Will turn around and are ready to give an answer.
Monkey D. Luffy: My name is Monkey D. Luffy-
Will McCarty: -And my name is William McCarty!
Monkey D. Luffy: I'm going to be King of the Pirates!
As they introduce themselves and turned around to face the enemy Captain Morgan and his Marines ready to do battle...
