it's a nice sunny day in the town of shells town. The sun is shining. The birds are flying high in the sky. The wind blows a breath of peace back to shells town.
"ax hand" Morgan is behind bars. Helmeppo is forced into the marines. The end of the twos tyranny is finally over. The people of shells town are at happy again.

ahhh~. Man, not eating anything for three weeks, I thought I'd be eating my boots said Zoro bringing joy and laughter to Rika again.
I can't believe your already full, lightweight said Luffy still eating.
how in the hell can you eat more than me? Asked Zoro.
I always had a big appetite, but ever since I ate the gum gum fruit, my appetite grew bigger said Luffy still eating.
if that's the case, then I can wait to meet the others said Zoro.
what others? Asked Luffy confused.
the other crew members. You said you're forming a strong pirate crew, so there's got to be more than me, right? Asked Zoro confused.
it's just you and me so far, but don't worry, I'm sure we'll find more people as we set sail said Luffy as he finishes his meal.
what about a ship?, you can't set sail well enough without a ship, right? Asked Zoro worried.
sorry vice captain Zoro, but me and Luffy came by boat said young Coby.
I see, so then I guess that makes me the first to join the crew said Zoro having a hard time seeing himself as a vice captain.
don't worry, if Luffy believes they'll be more, then I believe it to said Coby.
I'll start believing after a few more people join up said Zoro.
you'll see, we'll be quite a pair said Coby.
"we"?. Don't tell me your planning on joining to? Asked Zoro confused.
not really, I was wanting to join the marines, but after watching my dreams get broken, I decided to give up and find a better path. But seeing that I have nowhere else to go, I think it'd be safe to tag along with Luffy to see what else is good for me. I'm not asking to join you Luffy, but I don't have anywhere else to go... so what do you say?, can I tag along till I find a better path for myself? Asked Coby.
sure, I don't mind, just keep in mind, if ya ever want to join my crew, you'll have to get stronger said Luffy.
well if I'm tagging along, I might have to get strong enough to survive along the way. I'll try to be strong to, so I can keep tagging along till I find something else to do in life said Coby.
that's the spirit, welcome temporary to my crew Coby said Luffy happily.
just like that the marines showed up.
hello, I'm marine Lieutenant Ripper. I hear you people are pirates. Is this true? Asked Ripper.
yep. It's just me and Zoro so far said Luffy smiling without a care.
I see. What about you young man?, aren't you with them? Asked Ripper.
honestly no sir. I was once a slave of the Alvida pirates for 2 whole years till now. Luffy saved me a few days ago by single handedly defeating the whole Alvida pirates by himself. He even managed to beat "iron club" Alvida, in one punch. He saved my life, and helped me follow my dreams of joining the marines... but as you probably seen, it's no longer my dream, after witnessing Morgan breaking it. But now I wish to find a different path, one where I'm useful and happy. I'm only tagging along till I find my new path in life said Coby.
I see... young man, what is your name? Asked Ripper.
I'm monkey D Luffy, and I'm going to be king of the pirates said Luffy smiling.
I see... as thanks for saving our town, we will not report you to marine HQ. However you are pirates, therefore I must ask you to please leave at once said Ripper.
ok, seems fair I guess. Come on you two said Luffy getting up and walked out the door.
Zoro began to follow his captain. As for Coby, he followed behind but stopped to salute to Ripper.
I hope you become a great leader. May you live a great life said Coby before running to catch up.
[at the docks]
as the three stepped onboard the boat, they began setting sail to the great unknown.
so where to next? Asked Zoro.
simple, to the grand line said Luffy.
I had a feeling you'd say that, but until you have a real ship and enough people in your crew, I'll be manning the boat and the sails for the time being. I can't trust you with that. Plus you need enough supplies to last a long time during the trip. I may not be joining, but I think it's best I keep you and your future crew safe, at least until you head to the grand line said Coby.
ah man really?, I want to go to the grand line now said Luffy saddened by this.
you'll get your chance when it's come. You have my word said Coby.
oh alright, I guess I can wait a little bit longer said Luffy smiling again.
I got a feeling this is going to be a long trip said Zoro.
