I don't own one piece
This is getting really old said Ussop.
If the Marines keep attacking us and we keep running away, I'm going to drop dead from exhaustion said Ussop.
Not if that cannonball gets us before that, shut up and row said Nami.
Hwy Lucy a little help would be nice said Sanji.
Sorry I've got no strength; I haven't eaten in hours said Lucy.
How about a taste of the back of my hand said Sanji.
What the heck? Said Chopper.
They're shooting at each other. Said Zoro.
Ussop then boasts about how he knew the Marines would turn on each other.
When did you predict that? Asks Zoro.
Who cares! Their formation is collapsing we got to use his opportunity to escape said Nami,
Scene change
We lose 'em? Asks Ussop.
It appears so said Robin.
Marines sure have been dogging us a lot lately said Ussop.
Well, when you have 3 people on board with big bounties on their heads, you can't blame 'em for going all out said Zoro.
Lucy, you should move, there's a chance we could hit one of these shallow reefs and you could get thrown overboard said Nami.
Look it's a harbor said Chopper.
Where is it? Asks Lucy.
There! Right next to that lighthouse said Chopper.
A harbor means a town and a town means restaurants and that means food! Yahoo said Lucy.
Scene change
Oh, it's not a lighthouse at all, is it? Said Chopper.
Really? Sure, it is tall, I wonder what it is? Said Ussop.
Who cares? Let's get some food said Lucy.
Alright wipe the drool from your face said Nami.
Man: you there! Halt.
Here on Ruluka, there's a requirement for all visitors who moor their ship at the harbor or even along the rocks you must first pay all of the requisite harbor dues said the guard.
What are harbor dues? Asks Chopper.
It's a tax we have to pay for docking our ship said Ussop.
But if we're going to do some trading in the city why do we have to pay a tax just to dock here? Asks Nami.
Because it's your duty! Now pay up or you'll regret it said the guard.
Hey, don't talk to the lady like that said Sanji.
Or what? Said the guard.
Food here I come said Lucy.
Scene change
Give me another Pops said Lucy.
Man: one more special coming up.
Man #2: Make that two.
Man: well, here you go.
Man: You do have money to pay for that right?
Man #2: Actually, my friend here is paying.
No, I'm not said Ussop.
Man #2: If I'm going to tell you the secrets of the Rainbow Mist of course you are, it's the least you can
I'm not even the one who asked you! Jerk! Said Ussop.
My name's not jerk, it's Henzo said Henzo.
I'm a genius, repeat, genius scientist, and my field of research is the Rainbow Mist said Henzo,
Calling yourself a genius doesn't make you one said Ussop.
A self-important jackass would be more accurate old timer said Ussop.
Tell me, said Robin.
It's Professor Henzo, miss said Henzo.
Hey said Ussop.
Professor Henzo you do know this book? Asks Robin.
Is that? Said Henzo.
I came across it in Alabasta said Robin.
So that's it. I thought Rainbow Mist sounded kinda familiar, it turns out I was right. It's the title of a book Robin's been reading said Ussop.
I can't figure who authored the book but it was written well over 40 years ago said Robin.
According to the book The Rainbow Mist could possibly be the Garden of the Gods, or even El Dorado, the fabled city of gold. What do you think, Professor? Said Robin.
The latter is nothing more than a legend said Henzo.
Many adventurers have fallen prey to its lure for the potential for finding untold inside it, countless people have sailed off in search of the Rainbow Mist. Never to be seen again including some dear friends of mine said Henzo.
Oh, so that's why you're researching the mist said Ussop.
Chef: Hey, friend.
Chef: I wouldn't take whatever that guy says with a grain of salt if I were you.
Yeah, why's that? Asks Ussop.
Chef: Because he's one of Mayor Wetton's dogs, that's why.
A dog? Said Lucy.
Customer: Yeah, he receives all of his research funding from the Mayor and lives the easy life! He's nothing but a sham of a scientist.
Then the sound of drums is heard.
Customer: Oh no! It's the Tax Collection Squad.
A man with red hair enters the restaurant.
Well, well good citizens, hello there said the man.
I certainly hope that all of you are having an enjoyable meal today said the man.
Knocking back a nice cold one are you? Of course, you do realize that if you drink liquor you'll have to pay the liquor drinking tax, right? said the man.
Hey wait a minute please if you take what's left in my wallet I won't have anything to support my family with said the customer.
Who cares? Said the man.
It's a citizen's duty to pay any taxes that are required and those who neglect this civic duty have no right to live in our humble little village said the man.
Who's that jerkface? Asks Ussop.
Chef: Mayor Wetton's son, Flip. A total bastard who always extorts tax money from us for the slightest things.
Ho ho! Well, if isn't Professor Henzo said Flip.
Father was actually looking for you said Flip
He was wondering how your mist research was going said Flip.
Same as always inclusive, there's no telling where or when the Rainbow Mist is going to appear after all said Henzo.
My, my, that's a shame that your research is supported by citizen's taxes and what expensive research it is too said Flip.
That Rainbow Tower of yours cost a fortune to build said Flip.
Don't forget that the slower your research goes the more taxes we have to collect and the more it put everyone here out said Flip.
Well well well you there eating that heaping plate of spaghetti, are you? Said Flip.
It's my second I was hungry said Lucy.
You realize eating a heaping plate of food means you're going to have to pay a heaping tax, right? Said Flip.
My friend here is paying today said Lucy.
Stop saying that said Ussop.
Scene change
Dammit said Ussop.
I'm broke said Ussop.
You happy? Asks Ussop.
Chef: So I hope you understand now. If you don't want the people around here to think ill of you there's a simple solution don't hang around Henzo.
Thanks for the warning said Robin.
It's appreciated but it's really not up to me to decide, it's up to her said Robin.
Time skip
You got one outrageous Mayor here, he gets his goons to take money for every little thing you do and calls it tax collecting said Ussop.
Tax collecting my hairy butt! It's more like extortion if you ask me said Ussop.
I'm sorry, all of you said Henzo.
Why what are you apologizing for? Asks Lucy.
Didn't you listen to anything those guys in the restaurant Lucy? Asks Ussop.
Uh uh, did you? Said Lucy,
Of course, I did! They said Pops here is in league with those rip-off artists! And what's worse everyone's tax money is being squandered on his funky-ass research said Ussop.
Hey, what's going on? Said a citizen,
Citizen 2: A galleon with a horned figurehead just drifted into the harbor.
A galleon? Said Ussop.
It couldn't be said Henzo.
That's the spirit Pops! Let's go check it out said Lucy.
Hey Lucy hold on a second said Ussop.
Scene change
Oh wow! It's huge! Said Lucy.
It appears to be an older ship said Robin.
It's the Tarielishin said Henzo.
The what? Said Ussop.
How did you… said Ussop.
Hey Pops hold up said Ussop.
Henzo gets into a little craft.
Whoa that thing is so awesome said Lucy.
Incredible said Lucy.
It's cool! It's like I think gotta have one of those things said Lucy.
The minute I saw it, I knew she'd say that said Ussop.
The Straws Hats come up next to the galleon on the Going Merry.
Hey, Pops said Lucy.
Gum-Gum Rocket said, Lucy.
What the hell? Said Henzo.
Hello, can I have your way cool little boat? Asks Lucy.
You must've eaten a Devil Fruit, didn't you? Said Henzo.
Sure did, it was the Gum-Gum Fruit and it made me a rubber girl said Lucy.
Scene change
My machine is called the H-1, and I'm sorry but I can't let you have it said Henzo.
Aw, come on, please! I'll give it a good home said Lucy.
Scene change
It appears that there were people here just a little while ago said Robin.
But we checked the entire ship and didn't find anyone on board said Ussop.
There were people aboard once, but that was 50 years ago when this ship went adrift said Henzo.
Wait 50 years ago! Said Ussop.
This ships in pretty good condition to be that old said Robin.
That it is said Henzo.
Just as it was when I was last aboard said Henzo.
Hold on what the hell are you talking about? Asks Ussop.
Hey, what's that? Asks Lucy.
Oh my! The radar is reacting but I've never gotten a reading this strong! Outside, quick said Henzo.
Scene change
That's the Rainbow Mist said Robin.
Dammit, the H-1 is too small to take into the open sea! Said Henzo.
What do I do? Said Henzo.
Then he notices the Going Merry.
That could work said Henzo.
Hope you don't mind said Henzo.
What? Said Lucy and Ussop.
Don't go stealing our ship, Pops said Lucy.
Yeah if you wanna go so bad you should takt that Galleon said Ussop.
Trust me, I would but the Tarielishin's helm is still broken. It was destroyed long ago by Wetton said Henzo.
This is getting weirder by the minute said Ussop.
How do you know what happened to that ship, Pops? Asks Ussop.
Because 50 years ago I was on board the Tarielishin and I saw everything said Henzo.
Scene change
Guys, are we really going in there? Asks Ussop.
Isn't that the place where countless people have sailed off into never to be seen again? Said Ussop.
Indeed but I've spent decades trying to locate the Rainbow Mist, i'll be damned if i turn back now said Henzo,
Are you scared? Asks Robin.
Don't be silly I'm not scared said Ussop.
I'm he who travels all over the Grand Line with no fear! I'm the great Captain Ussop said Ussop.
Whoo-hoo! Alright Rainbow Mist here we come said Lucy.
Scene change
What is this place? Asks Robin.
You ever heard of Ape's Concert? Asks Henzo.
Ape's Concert? That's impossible said Robin.
What is that? Asks Ussop.
It's a legendary Graveyard of ships that once you enter you can never get out of said Robin.
It's what? Said Lucy and Ussop.
Awesome said Lucy.
Scene change
Wow! Hey look there are sunken ships everywhere as far as you can see said Lucy.
Why don't we just stop? Said Ussop.
A ghost captain could appear around here any minute now said Ussop.
Really? Said Lucy.
Hey ghost captain! Yells Lucy.
Stop that! Shouts Ussop.
Time skip
Hey said Lucy.
Lucy and Ussop come back with a treasure chest.
Pretty cool, huh? Said Lucy.
The two fall and the treasure chest opens to spill out jewels.
What is this? Asks Henzo.
It's amazing said Lucy.
And there's a whale lot more left inside the ship said Lucy.
I'm gonna go explore some more said Lucy.
Well perhaps this isn't a paradise but the part about treasure seems true though said Robin.
So maybe the book isn't entirely wrong said Robin.
They hear a bell ring.
You dare disturb the eternal rest of the dead said a voice.
Did you hear that? Asks Ussop.
Leave the treasure and depart this place at once said the voice.
Ok said Ussop.
If you do not the curse of the dead will fall upon you all said the voice.
Obey my words, or face the consequences said the voice.
I'm scared said Ussop.
Who's there? Said Lucy.
"Ghosts" appear at the sound of a bell.
Ghosts said Ussop.
Now hand over the treasure, nice and easy said a ghost.
If you do not said the ghost.
An arrow is shot and misses Zoro by a few inches.
Zoro said Lucy.
Why you said Lucy.
Lucy stretches her arm.
Rotten ghost captain said Lucy.
She uses one of her Gum-Gum moves to hit the so-called ghosts which her nothing but clothesline and sheets.
There's nothing inside the sheets said Ussop.
They're really ghost said Ussop.
But the arrow came from that direction though said Robin.
What? Said Ussop.
Lucy over here! Hey Lucy can you hear me? Said Ussop.
There's someone over there! Look! Lucy pay attention said Ussop.
Lucy come on said Ussop.
There's a bow said Robin.
Look out, Lucy! Said Ussop.
Lucy said Ussop.
Special attack: fire star said Ussop.
What's this? Said Ussop.
Jerks said a blonde boy.
No wait Rongo said a girl.
where's Akibi? Asks Rongo.
Rongo you need to calm down said the girl.
Hey looks, it's just a couple of kids said Ussop.
Akibi said Rongo.
Go, run said Akibi.
Gum-Gum I'm home said Lucy.
Yo! Thanks for the save earlier said Lucy.
Sure, you're welcome said Robin.
Rongo said the girl.
That's enough said voice.
We're the Pumpkin Pirates and Ape's Concert is our territory and you're all trespassing said A boy.
Now drop the treasure and let go of my friends unless you wanna die today said the boy.
A bomb? Said Lucy.
Rapanui said the girl.
Could it be? Said Henzo.
Hey uh, you do realize if you use that you'll blow us all up said Ussop.
We're all together in the same boat here, we live and die with one another, no matter what said Rapanui.
Come on said Rapanui.
Thanks, Rapanui said the girl.
Hey said the girl.
Rapanui, it's really you said Henzo.
You too, Ishoka and Rongo said Henzo.
All of you are really here said Henzo.
Can't you see it's me? Said Henzo.
We always used to play together on Cape Luluka! It's me Henzo said Henzo.
Henzo? Said Rapanui.
You know this guy? Asks Lucy.
Henzo? But there's no way said Isoka.
It's not true! It's not possible said Rapanui.
Stay back! I'll blow us all up I'm warning you said Rapanui,
Stop it! Get back now said Rapanui.
It's the Ka-boom MK III I did invent the thing after all said Henzo.
It's just a gizmo you can use to trick your opponents said Henzo,
It's a smokescreen too? Said Ussop.
Hey guys what's with all the noise? Asks Zoro.
Wait! You slept threw all of it? Said Ussop.
Huh? Who's the weird guy? Asks Zoro.
That's gonna take a long time to explain so just hang on a minute sleeping beauty said Ussop.
Hey the other ones are gone too said Lucy.
What just happened? Asks Lucy.
Who were those kids? Asks Lucy.
Hello, pops? Said Lucy.
Hnezo tells the tale of how he and his friends dreamed of becoming real pirates, how their town was attacked by Wetton and his crew, they flee the burning town on the pirate's ship, and most of them ended up in the Rainbow Mist.
After that day… after that Rapanui and the others never returned said Henzo.
I can't believe that in a place like this and after all this time they're still Pirates said Henzo.
Back it up there Mr. Mustache I thought that all happened 50 years ago but when we saw "em just now they were still little kids said Ussop.
The passage of time in the Rainbow Mist appears to be different than ours in the normal world. One day in here might be the same as a week or even a year out there said Henzo.
So Rapanui and the others don't seem to have aged said Henzo.
What? Really? Said Ussop.
If that's true we need to find a way out of here quickly said Robin.
If we don't there will be no undoing the damage said Robin.
Why not? Asks Lucy.
How dense are you anyway? Asks Ussop.
The same thing happened to those little kids and the Professor could happen to us, too! While we're stuck here doing nothing Nami, Sanji, and Chopper will all get old and stuff in the real world said Ussop.
Really?! Said Lucy.
Akright pops let's get outta here fast said Lucy.
Where have you been? We don't know how to get out of this place said Ussop.
We don't? Seriously?! Said Lucy.
So there's no way back? Asks Zoro.
Maybe there must be an escape said Robin.
Time skip
Onward! Full speed ahead said Lucy.
About that? Are you certain that we're moving forward, Lucy? Asks Zoro.
Yeah, I said full speed straight ahead said Lucy.
Where exactly is it you're trying to take us? Asks Henzo.
Well, we're heading out of the mist duh saud Lucy.
Don't be ridlidcloius said Henzo.
Once you enter Ape's Concert there's no leaving it said Henzo.
This region of the sea is not like any other you've seen before said Henzo.
Um I'm pretty sure we passed that ship just a little while ago said Ussop.
Aw don't worry there are a bunch of ships that look like no matter where you go said Lucy.
I don't think so said Robin.
That exact same ship that was wrecked from the very first place we dropped anchor. I remember seeing that of the goddess on the bow said Robin.
But what does that mean? Said Ussop.
Have we really come full circle to the exact same place we started from? Asks Ussop.
That's why I asked if you were sure we were going forward earlier said Zoro.
I was watching, we were going straight said Lucy.
How can you possibly see which way is straight in all this mist? Asks Zoro.
She can't said Robin.
Seis Fleur said Robin.
A cannonball is fired and the lands in the water behind the Going Merry,
What was the point of that? Asks Zoro.
She shot the cannon forward but it landed right behind us said Ussop.
As I thought said Robin.
The fabric of space is distorted here said Henzo,
What does that mean? Asks Zoro.
It's something remembered reading from that book earlier said Robin.
See, the inside of the Rainbow Mist is twisted around itself like a maze said Robin.
Hold on no Lucy said Ussop.
Rocket said Lucy.
Too late said Ussop.
She won't necessaaercaly end up back in the exact location she started from said Henzo.
Lucy, you moron said Zoro.
Lucy hits the sail and lands on the deck.
Ok, I get it now, it's a mystery mist said Lucy.
No matter which way you ended up where you started said Lucy.
Yeah, that's it a mystery mist said Ussop and Zoro.
I'm not quite certain you understand it completely said Henzo.
Well we get the part about not being able to get out of here said Zoro.
We don't really have to get out of here anyway, it's fun said Lucy.
We should join up with Rapanui and the others said Robin.
With all those kids? Said Zoro.
Don't you think that the best way to get out of Ape's Concert is to ask the people who have been in here for so long and made it their territory? Said Robin.
Well, that makes sense but how are we supposed to find where they all are? Said Ussop.
We could ask that boy he's right over there said Robin.
How did she find out where I was? Said the boy.
It's no use hiding said Robin.
Just Un Fleur said Robin.
Now would you be a dear and take us to wherever your leader is hiding said Robin.
Time skip
Oh wow! That ships so cool said Lucy.
It's a wrecked Warship isn't that right? Said Robin.
Yes but right it's what we're using as we're using as our main hideout said Pukau.
Cowards said Rapanui.
Just let Pukau go said Rapanui.
What is he talking about? Asks Lucy.
Shut up said Rapanui.
Let hin go now said Rapanui.
Just calm down a sec will you said Lucy.
Quiet! You took Pukau hostage and forced him to tell you where our base was, didn't you? Said Rapanui.
I'll make you pay said Rapanui.
That's not very nice now, is it? Said Zoro.
Rapanui I'm not really a hostage said Pukau.
They just asked me to lead them here so I brought them, that's all it was really said Pukau.
Now they threaten you to make you say said Rapanui.
It's true these are not bad people I'm being serious said Pukau.
Look she's not mad, even when I do this said Pukau.
It's a lie! This a stegery to get us to let our guard down, that's all said Rapanui.
You misunderstand, we only wanted to find you to ask if there is a way to get out of Ape's Concert, nothing more said Robin.
Once you find out, then that's when you're going steal all the treasure from the shipwrecks, i know what you're doing here said Rapanui.
No Rapanui that's not it said Henzo.
I know these people and they would not do that said Henzo.
I can I believe anything that a grownup says? Of course, is what they're after said Rapanui.
This isn't going anywhere said Zoro.
Hey said Ussop.
Look Ussop's very special lunch is now ready for eating said Ussop.
Whoohoo lunch time said Lucy.
Would you guys like some too? Asks Ussop.
Oh yeah said Pukau.
I can't promise if it gonna taste good said Zoro.
Don't listen to him, he's stupid said Ussop.
Wow, this is delicious! Did you make all this by yourself? Said Pukau.
Yep, there's nothing I can't do said Ussop.
Hey Lucy slow down, those aren't all for you said Ussop.
They aren't as good as Sanji's but they're still yummy said Lucy.
There are some children over there who look like they may want some food too said Robin.
You guys! Come down too said Ussop.
These are amazing said Pukau.
Oh really? Said Akibi.
Oh yeah said Rongo.
Don't take it, they're tricking you said Rapanui.
Hey whatever happened to the pride of the Pumpkin Pirate, huh? Said Rapanui.
Rapanui! Pride's not going to fill their stomachs said Henzo.
What? You guys really came from the East Blue! seriously Said Isoka.
Yeah sure did said Zoro.
Which means you must have gone past Reverse Mountain on the way said Akibi.
You guys must be real brave said Rongo.
Oh yeah, you better believe it! We've had more adventures than you can possibly count said Ussop.
We've fought giants and goldfish that swallow whole islands and we saved a country from s secret crime organization said Ussop.
Wow, really? Said Akibi.
How cool said Rongo.
And the only reason we were able to come out of all death-defying situations with our lives was my bravery and wisdom and because of these great attributes, I am known as Captain Ussop said Ussop.
Zoro hits Ussop on the head.
What's that for?! Said Ussop.
We're trying to eat here, say it don't spray it said Zoro.
Then they hear glass break
Rapanui please forgive me said Henzo.
I'm so ashamed of myself, I've spent the last 50 years of my life doing research trying to find a way to get you all out of the Rainbow Mist and I finally found a way to get back inside but because of my carelessness, we can't get out said Henzo.
I'm a failure as a pirate professor! I'm ashamed but I must ask you, please! If you know a way out tell me! We must find a way back to Luluka! Then once we're out of here we can return home together said Henzo.
No there's no way to get out of here and even if there was I still wouldn't tell any of you said Rapanui.
I don't trust any of you at all said Rapanui.
It's not like you've given me a real reason too said Rapanui.
And you call yourselves friends? Said Ussop.
What's that? Said Rapanui.
You can forget about the rest of us for a second but the professor here is your friend, right? I mean if you can't trust your friends then who can you trust exactly? Said Ussop.
You can just stay out of this said Rapanui.
Do you really expect me to believe this ridiculous story? That 50 years has sudden;y gone by? Said Rapanui.
Yes, I do said Ussop.
Because it doesn't matter how different he looks or how much time has passed said Ussop.
He once marched under the same flag as you so he's still one of your friends you got that? Said Ussop.
While the color of the flag may fade true friendship is forever you know?! Said Ussop.
A transponder snail goes off.
Oh wait that's me said Henzo.
Yes yes I'm coming said Henzo.
Lucy takes the snail.
Hey said Henzo.
Yep hi hello said Lucy.
What good does it do for you to answer? Said Zoro.
Well well, Professor Henzo said Flip.
Huh? Who is this anyway? Asks Lucy.
Scene change
What? Wait a second who are you? Asks Flip.
Hey, Lucy said Sanji.
Where the heck did you go? Asks Chopper.
You guys just went and ran off with the ship?! You put the rest of us in a kind of sticky situation you know said Nami.
Scene change
Huh? It's Nami said Lucy.
So you're connected to Nami and the others? Said Ussop.
Nami? Said Isoka.
Hold on, if we can talk to her then that must mean said Robin.
Is this the outside world? Said Henzo.
Scene change
Flip! Flip respond are you there? Said Henzo
Yes, Flip here said Flip.
Professor Henzo what's your location now? Asks Flip.
I'm currently inside the Rainbow Mist said Henzo.
Scene change
At the moment I'm afraid we're unable to escape it do you think perhaps you could come to rescue us? Said Henzo.
You mean someone's coming? Said Pukau.
We can go back to Luluka now? Really? Wow said Rongo.
You hear that? Isn't that great? Said Isoka.
We don't have any time to waste, someone needs to equip the Safety Search Gear i invented to and come and get us from inside the mist and tell Wetton he'll also need to doublecheck of all the said Henzo.
What are you doing? Said Henzo.
That name you just said, Wetton, he's the exact same man who was responsible for burning down Luluka isn't that right Henzo said Rapanui.
I had to team up with that man, it was the only way I could figure out how to save you all said Henzo.
It's all clear to me now you aren't the Henzo that we knew after all said Rapanui.
Admit it, if you were a true Pumpkin Pirate as you say, then you would have never become one of Wetton's pawns in a million years! Never said Rapanui.
Rapanui said Henzo.
Don't you dare say my name you lousy traitor said Rapanui.
Time skip
Now Gum-Gum Rocket said Lucy.
Let go of me right now dammit said Rapanui.
Please stop this Rapanui said Isoka.
There has to be some mistake here, Rapanui said Akibi.
Henzo would never become one of Wetton's men said Akibi.
You can't pass this off as a mistake, Akibi said Rapanui.
Or don't you remember it was Wetton who burned down Luluka said Rapanui.
If he had never forgotten the misery of that day, if he has remained true to Luluka then he'd die before doing anything Wetton told him to said Rapanui.
Things change in 50 years huh? Have you already forgotten all the pain that man put us through said Rapanui.
50 years have passed for you old man but for us what happened wasn't nearly that long ago said Rapanui.
Hold it you're only saying that because you don't know what's been going on all these years said Ussop.
Do you have any idea at all what the professor has been going through out there? What he's had to deal with, do you? No, I don't think you do said Ussop.
I uh said Rapanui.
All the people in Ruluka call him Wetton's dog and all this time they treated him horribly but he put up with all the abuse anyway so he could keep researching the Rainbow Mist said Ussop.
But, why? Asks Isoka.
Isn't it obvious? He was trying to save all of you said Ussop.
No, it's alright I have no good excuse for what I've done said Henzo.
None at all said Henzo.
Hit me, go on it's what I deserve Rapanui said Henzo
I swallowed my pride in order to live under Wetton's protection so hit me I deserve it, go on and hit me okay said Henzo.
Dammit no said Rapanui.
Why did 50 years have to pass with us stuck here? And no matter how much I might want to I just can't bring myself to hit you said Rapanui.
Okay anyone else feeling awkward here? Asks Zoro.
There you see you are still friends said Ussop.
A lot of time may have passed but you still understand each other in the end and that's what really matters said Ussop.
Henzo said Rapanui.
Rapanui said Henzo.
Lucy appears, grabs Rapanui and they disappear into another portal.
Sorry said Lucy.
Time skip
Hey, wait a minute where are we going? Asks Rapanui.
Isn't it oblivious? back to our friends said Lucy.
Are you serious? You mean you really know how to get back to where they are? Said Rapanui.
Nope, sure don't said Lucy.
What's wrong? Asks Lucy.
So we're just blindly running around? Said Rapanui.
Well no not exactly I have a hunch you see said Lucy.
That's the same thing as blindly running said Rapanui.
I hope you realize that this whole mess is your fault why'd you have to go and knock me out here with you? Said Rapanui.
I'm sorry said Lucy.
Saying sorry's not going to help said Rapanui.
Henzo and I were finally reunited as friends again said Rapanui.
I didn't even get a chance to shake his hand said Rapanui.
What's more, i'll never get back to Luluka now ever said Rapanui.
Dammit said Rapanui.
Now I'm going to die in this mist just like my dad did years go said Rapanui.
Your dad? Said Lucy.
Yeah my dad was a Marine he was an officer, when I was a little kid he went off on a long journey to some unknown region of the sea said Rapanui.
Years afterward I was still waiting, waiting for him to come back said Rapanui.
My dad was off having these grand adventures at sea that's what I believed said Rapanui.
But then said Rapanui.
I searched the ship frantically but no matter how hard I looked I couldn't find him anywhere so I know we're not going to get out here alive said Rapanui.
We'll be stuck inside this forever said Rapanui,
Hey, where are you going? Asks Rapanui.
I told back where our friends are said Lucy.
But how do we do that? You don't even know where we are! Said Rapanui.
You're just going to keep wandering threw the mist anyway? Said Rapanui.
What else should I do? Standing still isn't gonna get us back to where we need to be said Lucy.
They continue on.
Time skip
What's happoening? Asks Rapanui.
The two are hit back a wave and end up in the water.
That was a close one said Lucy.
Here's your hat said Rapanui.
Thank you said Lucy.
By the way, what is that thing over there? Asks Lucy.
I guess it's what they're planning to use to invade Ape's Concert said Rapanui.
What do you mean by invade? Asks Lucy.
Never mind that now we have to go going everyone's in danger said Rapanui.
Time skip
Lucy and Rapanui make the end of the Rainbow Tower via her Devil Fruit powers and they end up crashing into Wetton.
Phew finally stopped said Lucy.
How dare you said Wetton.
Nobody can go into the Rainbow Mist without my permission understand me? Said Wetton.
You'll have to pay a 50 million beri entering tax said Wetton.
No said Lucy.
What are you actually refuse to follow Mayor Wetton's orders? Said Wetton.
Wetton? Said Rapanui.
Wait! Is that you? Said Rapanui.
That's right I am Wetton the great and powerful Mayor of the whole town of Luluka said Wetton.
But you used to be a Pirate and you're the Mayor! said Rapanui.
Captain that's him he's the one who stole our ship said Ian.
What? Said Wetton.
Really so you're that kid huh? Said Wetton.
You're the one who burnt down Luluka and now you're it's Mayor that's wrong said Rapanui.
After what you did how dare you said Rapanui.
Shut up you brat said Wetton.
Oh no said Lucy.
Then Wetton says something about being a pirate.
Shut up said Lucy.
Captain no said Ian.
Father said Flip.
You will regret that girl said Wetton.
Old guy, you got no clue what a real pirate is said Lucy.
What? Said Wetton.
Lucy said Rapanui.
Pirates don't need to have power, that's not what we're looking for, a real pirate has a dream said Lucy.
A dream huh? Said Wetton.
A dream don't be ridiculous, everyone knows what pirates dream about all we want is to become rich with gold and silver said Wetton
Why waste your time when treasure will fall in your lap once you gain power said Wetton.
You're wrong said Lucy.
A real pirate has a different dream to become the greatest person on the sea said Lucy.
And I'm gonna be Queen of the Pirates someday said Lucy.
Lucy said Rapanui.
No one has ever dared defy me and lived to tell about it said Wetton.
All blow you both away said Wetton.
Captain wait said Ian.
Father, what about me? Said Flip.
What do I care said Wetton.
Then the tunnel blows up.
Dammit, what the hell is going on now? Said Zoro.
He abandoned us said Ian.
Wetton, damn you! No real pirate captain would do that no way said Ian.
Lucy said Nami.
Rapanui said Pukau.
It's Rapanui said Rongo.
He came back to us said Akibi.
Thank goodness Rapanui said Isoka.
I'm sick of this Mayor, how big a pain can one guy be? Asks Zoro.
What's that? Said Henzo.
It can't be said Henzo.
Professor? Said Robin.
This isn't good at all, Ape's Concert maintains only a very delicate balance, to begin with, if you set off an explosion like that one in a place like this there's no telling what might happen next said Henzo.
Aah! Said Henzo.
What is that? Asks Zoro.
The warping of space and time is expanding quickly at this rate we'll get caught up in it and we'll all die said Henzo.
What? Said Ussop.
Alright we have to get out of here said Ussop.
Yeah but how do we do that? Asks Nami.
The author of this book once visited Ape's Concert he must talk about the way out somewhere in here said Robin.
She gasps.
What's wrong? Asks Ussop.
It must be in the next volume though said Robin.
You have it right? Asks Ussop.
She shakes her head no.
Oh crap said Ussop.
Scene change
What now? Asks Lucy.
Over there! Said Rapanui
That light over there it's the setting sun said Rapanui.
The sun? Said Ussop.
That's right the light of the sun is shining through a crack in space, Lucy and I followed that light earlier and we ended up outside said Rapanui.
You did? Said Ussop.
We need to hurry that light could be disappearing at any time now said Henzo.
Unfurl the sails and everyone row the oars as hard as you can! Said Nami.
Scene change
Why don't you guys come give us a hand too, we're trying to get out of here now said Zoro.
Man: okay.
Scene change
Nami blows a whistle, and they start rowing. But they're going in circles.
What are you doing? Row right okay? Said Zoro.
We are rowing right said Lake.
Then the oars break.
Look you guys th light is starting to disappear said Ussop.
So this is how it ends said Henzo.
You guys get off and push us from behind said Zoro.
You're crazy said Flip.
If you all kick your feet really hard it might work said Lucy.
No way said Ian, Lake, and the guards.
What we really need is a tailwind to blow us said Nami.
So all we need is some wind? Said Rapanui.
Huh? Said Ussop.
He jumps overboard.
Hold on what are you planning? Said Nami.
I'm gonna blow up our ship said Rapanui.
It was originally a Marine ship after all so it's fully loaded with explosives if I light those the explosion should give a pretty good tailwind said Rapanui.
You can't said Akibi.
Wait Rapanui, don't do it if you blow up the ship then what's going to happen to you? Said Henzo.
Rapanui said Rongo.
Hey! What are you doing? come back here said Ussop.
We can't do that, we're Pumpkin Pirates too said Pukau.
Besides we swore we would live and died together said Akibi.
They're going said Ussop.
Rapanui is planning on blowing up the ship because he wants to save us all, don't let his sacrifice be for nothing! Said Henzo.
So, you all want to die? Said Henzo.
No, we aren't going to die said Isoka.
Henzo, I promise you that we're going to come back said Isoka.
Whatever happens, we're going to come back to Luluka somehow said Isoka.
Isoka said Henzo.
An explosion goes off and the Going Merry ends up outside the mist.
Oh, look at it, my precious ship said Ussop.
Hey Sanji, long time no see said Lucy.
Nami dear said Sanji.
She hits him on the head.
I'm so annoyed I could scream said Nami.
But why Nami dear? Asks Sanji.
All the treasure she had on deck got blown away and she isn't taking it very well so i wouldn't get too close to her right now if I were you whispers Ussop.
Alright, Pirates that's far enough said a Marine.
Marines said Sanji.
And it's the same ones who were chasing us said Ussop.
Please help us sir! These people are terrible criminals they've stolen everything at that our town's great Mayor owns said Flip.
Marine: Let's see! This is the ring of Princess Alicia it was stolen by pirates years ago and here it is sitting on your finger now.
Marine: why do you have this?
Well, you see uh said Flip.
You didn't steal it now, did you? Asks the marine.
No of course not said Flip.
This was a treasure that was resting inside Ape Concert said Flip.
Yes, yes, he's right! We just pulled it out of a shipwreck that's all said Lake.
I see so what you're saying is that this ring here doesn't belong to anyone said the Marine.
What? Said both.
Major, we've discovered a large pile of treasure that we believe was carried out of there said a female Marine.
Well then, the Marines will be confiscating all of it said the Major.
I won't let you! You better not so much as lay a finger on my treasure, it's mine! All of it mine said Wetton.
Any treasure that is found without an official owner is the property of the World Government and if obtained illegally will be considered an act of piracy said the Major.
Fine with me, I'm really a pirate anyway said Wetton.
Anything I want can just take by force said Wetton.
Look out said Lucy and Ussop.
Let's consider that your confession, shall we? If that's ok with you pirate captain Wetton said the major.
Wait, what? Said Wetton.
No. no it can't be! Rapanui said Henzo.
No way! Said Lucy and Ussop.
I promised we'd come back to Luluka didn't I? Said the female Marine.
Isoka said Henzo.
Okay, take Wetton's gang into custody said Rapanui.
You're alive and you're a lot older! How'd that happen? Said Ussop.
When the explosion happened, we were blown into the outside world just like all of you were except there was one little difference, we ended up in the world of 50 years ago said Rapanui.
I see the Rainbow Mist must have warped the access of time as well as space said Robin.
Then why didn't you come here sooner? Asks Henzo.
We knew we needed to figure out a way to defeat and punish Wetton said Rapanui.
I thought that we'd need help though, so we all decided to enlist with the Marines to use their power. But earning a high enough rank to the authority to come here at will took more time than I suspected said Rapanui.
It makes sense now said Henzo.
I may be wearing the uniform of the Marines but in my heart, I am still a Pumpkin Pirate to the death said Rapanui.
Henzo I'm still your friend too forever under the same flag said Rapanui.
Rapanui said Henzo.
Also, I may have forgotten to mention this, Straw Hats, but you're all under arrest said Rapanui,
What? Said all.
You're heartless said Ussop.
You still owe me for feeding you that time you jerk, remember? Said Ussop.
As a Marine I'm charged with upholding justice I can't just let a pirate with a bounty on their head get away said Rapanui.
However! it can't be! Right now, we have got to take Wetton and his crew back to Marine Headquarters but if we do that the Straw Hats Pirates will be able to slip away! They are just too much for us to handle now! What are we going to do? Said Rapanui.
I know, request assistance from the Marine Base at once! But no they won't arrive until tomorrow or the next at the earliest that will give the pirates plenty of time to escape said Rapanui.
Aw! Dammit said Rapanui.
I guess there's nothing I can do now said Rapanui.
Very convincing, isn't he? Said all.
Scene change
You know what? That place was pretty awesome, wasn't it? Said Lucy.
Uh I think I've had enough of that ship graveyard said Nami.
Well, it's not like I wanna live there but it would be nice to visit said Lucy.
I can't believe you actually enjoyed that said Chopper.
Is that rain? Asks Zoro.
No way this ain't rain said Sanji.
that's interesting it looks like a.. oh said Sanji.
Grab a hold of something! Whatever you do don't let go said Zoro.
Why are their ships falling out of the sky? Asks Nami.
I know this is just an awful dream said Ussop.
Great I love dreams said Chopper.
Head's up I don't think the party's over yet sai Sanji.
It won't stop falling said Sanji.
The rudder! Turn the rudder said Nami.
That'll never work in these waves said Zoro.
Lucy, you gotta protect the ship she's taking a beating said Sanji.
Right said Lucy.
Ussop? Said Lucy.
I cast aside my worries and dig deep within to find my happy place said Ussop.
And when I open my eyes, the serene landscape is all that will lay before me said Ussop.
Ah! A skeleton dead guy said Ussop.
Don't throw that nasty thing at me you idiot said Nami.
I'm surrounded by the dead said Ussop.
Scene change
Alright, why did a ship just fall out of the sky? Asks Lucy.
Captain error? Said Sanji.
The sky is clear, who knows said Zoro.
I knew coming to the Grand Line was a mistake, it freaks me out said Ussop.
First, we travel over a ship graveyard and now they're falling out of the sky complete with skeletons said Ussop.
Huh? Said Nami.
What's wrong, Nami? Problem? Asks Sanji.
