Chapter 29 - Episode 64 & 65
Skipping episode 64's opening, they were greeted with a snowy sea as the title card popped up, "A Town That Welcomes Pirates? Setting Foot On Whisky Peak."
"I have a bad feeling about this." Ochako narrowed her eyes, seeing how Miss Wednesday and Mr. 9 weren't very welcoming to the crew if that was the case. They could be mad about not getting the food, but still...
On the Going Merry, Nami can't believe this snow came out of nowhere while Luffy and Usopp play in the snow. Luffy built a snowman while Usopp sculpted a snow statue of the 'Snow Queen.'
Mina let out a happy gasp, seeing the sculpture's resemblance to Kaya, but Katsuki quickly said, "No."
"Ah, geez, aren't you two freezing out there like that?" Ochako faked a shiver, rubbing her arms.
Luffy made his snowman punch the sculpture, causing the sculpture's head to explode. In turn, Usopp destroyed the snowman, creating a war between the two.
Nami can't believe those two could be so energetic in the snow.
"Hey, it's fun!" Kirishima rolled his eyes.
"Sometimes, the cold is the perfect excuse to take a nap." Aizawa said, earning a snicker from Toshinori and Hizashi.
Meanwhile, Sanji was shoveling snow, asking how much he should shovel, which Nami told him to stop once the snow stops falling.
Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday complained about the cold, which caused Nami to order them around since they're not guests.
Suddenly, lightning strike from the sky as the wind harshly pasted them. Nami could see how random the weather gets, which Miss Wednesday claimed that's how it is in the Grand Line.
"Is it even possible for lightning to appear during snow?" Sero asked.
"Yes, I believe it's called 'thundersnow,' but it is unusual." Momo claimed.
Miss Wednesday noticed Nami haven't been steering for a while. While Nami claimed she've just checked the direction, she checked outside and screamed, noticing they have to go 180 degrees now. She remembered looking away from the post for a second, noticing the waves were calm earlier.
"Man, the weather really does change on the dime." Denki said.
Miss Wednesday mocked her status as a navigator. saying that they can't trust the weather here, and the only thing that doesn't is the direction of the log pose. Nami kicked them out.
Nami ordered them to change the direction of the ship, but the first spring gale came in as Usopp yelled at Zoro for sleep.
"Already!?"
Everyone ran around while Luffy wants to see a dolphin, but they were soon met with an iceberg and fog.
"How does anyone survive in the Grand Line?!" Mina shouted in surprise.
"Live on the island?" Todoroki suggested.
"I mean, yeah, but what about traveling? Shipping materials?"
"I guess that's true."
The Going Merry was able to scrap against the iceberg, but water's leaking at the bottom of the ship. Usopp tried to patch it up as dark clouds appeared in the sky. Just as Sanji brought them food, a harsh wind came, rapping the sails.
It was pure chaos... until they were finally met with calm waters, just in time for Zoro to wake up, telling them to not laze around on a nice day. Of course, Nami, Usopp, and Sanji were angry at him.
"How in hell's name did you slept through a billion weather changes!?" Mina exclaimed.
"Hopefully, all that napping would help them in the future." Ojiro sighed.
Zoro asked why Miss Wednesday and Mr. 9 are here, and Luffy explained that they're heading to Whiskey Peak. Zoro told him that they don't owe the two anything, which Luffy knows. Still, the swordsman doesn't think it matters.
Zoro started to interrogate the two, claiming that something's bothering him since he've first heard their names... like he may or may not have heard of them before, which made the two jump in surprise. Before he could continue, Nami bonked him on the head, furious that he could sleep so comfortably all this time.
"I mean, you're right about the sleeping part, but I don't think hitting him would make him learn faster." Todoroki firmly said.
Nami told everyone to not let their guard down since she've realized the dangers of the Grand Line's weather. Usopp asked if they'll be okay, and Nami was confident that things will work out.
In fact, their first journey is over. She pointed beyond the fog, where there are mountains that resembled cacti.
The audience let out 'ooo's of interest, seeing their first Grand Line island.
"Whiskey Peak is a bit more interesting than I thought." Izuku tilted his head, tapping a pen to his chin.
Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday dramatically stood on the railing, telling the crew of their departure. Then they leaped into the ocean, swimming away. The crew were confuse, but Luffy doesn't care since they're landing
Seeing there's a river at the front, Nami could see they can go inland by ship, though Usopp was rather intimidated, thinking there could be monsters here.
"Do you want to be a brave warrior or not, Long Nose?!" Katsuki shouted at him.
Sanji thought it was possible, but Luffy believed that if there's monsters, they can just leave the island. Nami reminded him that they have to stay here for a certain period of time for the log pose, explaining that each island require a different amount of time.
"So, even if the island is dangerous, they still have to stay there until then?" Denki said.
"It's either that, or face the Grand Line blind." Izuku said, reminding them of the weather they just saw.
Usopp panicked, but Luffy brushed it off. Zoro agreed. Sanji believed that he can protect Nami, and Usopp's chronic illness is acting up.
Nami told them to go in, and to be prepared to run as well as fight.
On top of the hills, there were people spying in them, hidden by the fog. They recognize them as pirates.
"Welp, if that's not a sign of trouble, I don't know what it." Hizashi shrugged as the students tensed up in anticipation.
After the eyecatches, the crew noticed people in the fog. They were ready for a fight, but as they got out of the fog, they were met with villagers happily greeting and cheering them, even calling them the 'heroes of the sea.'
Luffy didn't mind, Sanji was won over by the girls, and Usopp took in the praise, but Nami was a bit reluctant.
"I feel like you guys should at least be suspicious about all of this." Jiro said, shaking her head.
The mayor of Whisky Peak, Igarappoi, introduced himself to the Straw Hats as Luffy did the same, saying that went overboard on curling his hair.
"Wait, is that his actual hair or a wig?" Ochako asked.
Igarappoi claimed that Whisky Peak thrives on making liquor and music, and hospitality is the pride of their town. He asked if the town could throw a party for them, so they could hear their tales.
Luffy, Usopp, and Sanji happily accepted the offer while Nami and Zoro thought they're idiots.
"Well, I'm glad someone can see the red flags here." Aizawa sighed.
Nami asked for how long for the log of this island to be stored, but the mayor told her to not worry about the boring stuff, and rest.
As it zoom out of the cheering village and the setting sun, the Unluckies can be seen.
"Well, at least they're not hiding it." Katsuki shrugged.
It was nighttime as the villagers happily partied with the crew. As Usopp told his lies to an impressed crowd, Nami was offered alcohol. Nami tried to refuse, saying that she rather not drink, but Igarappoi claimed that it's a special wine that doesn't contain alcohol. Nami took a sip, finding it delicious.
"Just a quick reminder that you should never accept drinks from strangers." Toshinori reminded the students. who nodded to his advice.
To celebrate the harvest, Igarappoi held their usual toast competition, where the last one standing is the winner. Nami refused to take in the competition, but once money was mentioned, she's all in. forcing Zoro to participate too.
"Damn it, they know her weakness too." Ochako worried.
"...Money is a pretty common reward too." Iida deadpanned.
The party went on with highlights like Luffy eating for 20 people, Zoro and Nami winning the competition, and Sanji flirting with 20 girls. It all seems to be going will until a sinister look appeared on Igarappoi's face.
"I knew it." Jiro sighed.
At night, Miss Wednesday and Mr. 9 were writing their report on their failure on the food, and their success on leading the Straw Hats to Cactus Island. Mr. 9 was certain that this would clear their names, and Miss Wednesday put the letter in the Unluckies Box, which had a jolly roger and 'BAROQUE' on it.
"Bar-o-que." Denki tried to pronounce as Izuku wrote down the name in his One Piece notebook.
"Ba-roque." Hizashi corrected him. "It's this style from the Renaissance for many forms of art, like paintings and music."
"I believe it's... french?" Momo said with some uncertainty. Her eyes looked towards Aoyama to see if she's correct.
He nodded. "It means 'irregularly shaped,' usually referring to pearls."
Back at the party, Zoro gave up on the competition to go to sleep. Nami complained, but she's already up against the sister on her 15th cup. The soft spoken nun told her she should quit soon for her sake, but Nami won't give up the prize money, laughing hysterically.
"Huh, I though nuns aren't suppose to drink a lot of alcohol." Mina commented on.
"I doubt she's a real nun." Todoroki pointed out.
Even Luffy can't eat anymore, thought he took down three cooks along the way. Finally, Nami won with Usopp and Sanji following suit.
With the Straw Hats passed out, Igarappoi, or rather Mr. 8, meet up with Miss Wednesday and Mr. 9. The nun, who took off her disguise, asked if it was really necessary to put on an elaborate act for the five weak-looking brats.
"Hey, I bet one of them can take all of you on." Kirishima challenged.
"Even Usopp?" Aoyama asked.
"...Maybe."
"What about Redhead?" Katsuki soon added.
"Look, I was just trying to be supportive!"
She believed that they should've beaten them at the harbor since the town is already short on food, and they didn't have hopes on the whale meat on the first place. Mr. 9 complained that they've tried their best, but Mr. 8 told them to calm down.
He've shown Luffy's bounty, surprising them with the boy's worth. Mr. 8 criticized Miss Monday, the muscular woman, for judging him on his looks, then started to clear his throat as if he's going to sing, like before.
Mr. 8 planned to confiscate the crew's money and other valuables on the ship, and when asked about the crew themselves, Mr. 8 claimed that if they kill them now, the bounty drops by 30% since the Government wants to hold public executions.
The audience can't help but to wince and cringe in disgust at that. They already know how cruel and corrupt the Government are, but just hearing that made them even more villainous than before somehow.
Mr. 8 ordered the three to capture the pirates alive, but a voice from above stopped them.
"Zoro!" The students cheered at the sight of the swordsman.
"I'm glad someone noticed." Jiro sighed with a smile.
Two of their members tried to warn them about Zoro's escape, but it was too late.
Mr. 8 thought he was asleep, but Zoro claimed that swordsmen never make the mistake of letting their guard down that much.
"But what about those times he was napping on the ship?" Toru asked.
"I'm sure he trusts his crew to watch over him." Aizawa suggested.
"Wait, is that why Aizawa-sensei naps in class?" Todoroki quietly theorized.
Zoro figured out what they are. This is a nest of bounty hunters, and they 'dupe pirates who are in high spirits after having just entered the Grand Line.' From where he is, he could see about 100 bounty hunters here, and Zoro plans to fight Baroque Works.
"Well, would you look at that." Aoyama mused, looking at a somewhat bashful Kirishima.
The members were horrified that he knows their company's name. When Zoro was in a similar line of work, he was actually recruited by their company once, and naturally, he rejected it.
He know that the employees don't know each other's identity and are called by code names. Even their boss's whereabouts and his identity are also a mystery to them, and Baroque Works is a criminal group that faithfully carries out their orders.
As Izuku wrote down the information, Tokoyami smirked a bit, "Huh, what a turn of events."
Of course, the bounty hunters will have to kill him now for knowing their secrets, and he will be another gravestone added to the Cactus Rocks.
Panning closer tot he Cactus Rocks revealed the many, many gravestones there, resembling spikes from afar.
Some of the students shivered at the sight, surprised by the sinister nature of the island.
"I didn't realize they've killed that many people." Mina backed herself all the way to the back of the couch.
"And apparently engraved them as well." Todoroki dryly added.
"At least they're... respectful?" Denki somewhat joked.
Mr. 8 ordered everyone to kill Zoro, but somehow, the swordsman disappeared from their sight.
"To Be Continued."
"Was he always that fast?" Izuku asked in awe.
"Alright, we're going to see some assassins' asses get kicked!" Katsuki shouted with his friends cheering behind him.
After skipping episode 65's opening and recap, they were greeted with the image of Zoro in the shadows and "Explosion! The Three-Sword Style! Zoro vs. Baroque Works!"
The bounty hunters were shock by Zoro's sudden disappearance, looking around for the swordsman until he reappeared within the crowd.
"...How the hell did he do that without anyone noticing?!" Mineta asked, but was met with no answer.
Zoro smiled, which the others took as a mock. The people aimed their guns and shoot, but Zoror seemed to disappear once again, causing them to shoot each other.
"Seriously, did he developed teleportation offscreen?!"
Mr. 8 turned around, angry that they couldn't kill a single swordsman, but he stilled at the sword poking through his hair, Confidently, Zoro asked if he really need to add another gravestone.
The hunters tried to stop Zoro, but Mr. 8 panicked at the sound of their guns.
"Igarappa!" Mr. 8 aimed a horn above his head, shooting out bullets and hitting some people in the process.
"Why does he have a trumpet gun of all things?" Katsuki complained as the others winced at the maybe dead people.
"Actually I'm sure that's a saxophone." Jiro corrected.
"It's still the same question!"
Zoro was able to run off and hide, listening to the members of Baroque Works talk. Mr. 9 believes that they must be cautious as the others seem to be readying themselves. Mr. 8 can't believe Zoro would try to challenge them by himself even after knowing they're with Baroque Works.
Inside the building, the rest of the crew were still asleep, all except for Nami. She've learned of the town's true nature.
"Oh good, she've figured if out." Hizashi sighed in relief.
Outside, the bounty hunters were still looking for Zoro, and the swordsman hopped to try out the new 'recruits.'
Standing above him, a man found him, and before the bullet hit, Zoro rolled into the building to dodge.
As the students cheered on Zoro, Aizawa felt like he have to say, "Word of advice: Don't announce you found him, and just shoot."
Still, Zoro was surrounded by the hunters. Before they could shoot, he jumped over a table, using it as a shield. Even with the bullets getting through the table, Zoro was glad to use Yubashiri. He sliced through the table and the hunters in a flash, noting that the sword is light.
Zoro climb up a set of stairs, nearly dodging a bazooka launched at him. From another building, Miss Monday threw a barrel at him, but the swordsman sliced it into four pieces, conveniently hitting four other hunters. He thought that was a waste of a drink.
"I think it's better them than you." Iida raised a hand.
A man tried to hit Zoro with a hammer, but Zoro was able to slice it and the man, surprising him with how sharp Kitetsu III is. He notes that this sword is a problem child.
A few students and Hizashi let out a snicker as Aizawa looked unimpressed with them.
A little boy ran up to him with a tiny knife, and of course, Zoro was able to knock it out of his hand. A nun hugged the child close, begging for mercy... until she unleashed a blinding powder from her cross.
"Of course the nun and the kid are bounty hunters too!" Jiro threw her hands up in the air.
"Once again, maybe she's not a real nun." Todoroki said.
Still, Zoro sliced them down with the back of his blade.
As Zoro climbs down another building, with the other Straw Hats, Sanji, Usopp, and Luffy were trampled on by the agents, but for Nami, she was disappointed that she can't find much treasure here.
"Nami, you should really help Zoro out." Toru sighed.
"I don't think that's necessary. Zoro seems to be handling it well by himself." Tokoyami said.
The hunters climb up the ladder, confident that they've cornered Zoro... until he started to rock the ladder back and forth before just tossing it off the wall.
As some of the students were able to have a good laugh at this, Aizawa said, "I have to admit, he's good on his feet."
Zoro used the falling ladder as a platform to jump onto another building. Even with a wave of bullets sent his way, Zoro grinned,
"Nitoryu! Taka Nami!" When he landed, Zoro was able to create a powerful gust of wind to knock his opponents over.
From above, more people tried to attack him as Zoro used his sword to cut the rook. When they landed, Zoro said, "Watch out. That place is unstable."
As if on cue, the floor under them collapsed.
More students laughed as Toshinori looked rather impressed. "Huh, maybe Zoro can handle this himself."
"Though for how long?" Aizawa added.
Seeing her shadow, Zoro was able to dodge Miss Monday's attack with a ladder, though it did graze him.
Tossing the broken ladder aside, Miss Monday put on some brass knuckles. Claiming that no man matches her strength, she was able to grab Zoro by his neck and held him up high til she slammed him down to the ground.
"Zoro!" Several students cried out at the swordsman's sudden disadvantage.
"I think you just jinked it." Hizashi said, causing the man to let out a sigh.
"Kairiki..." She held her fist up high. "Meriken!" She delivered a punch straight into Zoro's face, strong enough to crack the ground under them.
The audience winced at this.
Mr. 8 was certain that they've finally settled this until they heard Miss Monday scream.
On the rooftop, Zoro held the muscular woman by the face until she fainted, overpowering her.
There was a sigh of relief over them, a few of them cheering for Zoro's success.
"Okay, maybe Zoro can handle this." Ochako determined.
After the eyecatches, Zoro still wants to fight the members of Baroque Works. The members were horrified that the swordsman could overpower Miss Monday, which lead Mr. 8 to believe that the Navy made a mistake with the wanted poster and that Zoro is actually the one with the bounty, making him the real captain. Miss Wednesday was convinced since it's pretty strange that 'namby-pamby guy= would be worth 30 million Beris.
"Hey, despite the fact Zoro kicked all your asses, Luffy is the one with the bounty." Kirishima tried to defend him.
Still, Mr. 8 doesn't want to lose against a pirate, and they'll be held responsible since their boss put them in charge of this town. Mr. 9 claimed that within the members of Baroque Works, the smaller his number, the higher his level and destructive power are. Mr. 9, Mr. 8, and Miss Wednesday are agents with a single digit number, meaning they're powerful people who are beyond comparison to those he've just beaten. Zoro thought that titles are useless when it comes to fighting, and it's the stronger one who wins.
"I mean, it doesn't always come down to strength." Toshinori said, looking slightly sheepish.
"But he does have a good point about titles." Aizawa said.
As the wind passes by, Mr. 8 shoot Zoro with his saxophone. Mr. 9 told Miss Wednesday as he jumped up to Zoro, and she whistle for Karoo, a big... duck?
"Oh, now you have a pet sidekick?!" Jiro said, somewhat incredulous.
"And he's so cute too." Toru cooed.
She yelled at him to come over, and on Karoo's back, Miss Wednesday wants to show off his speed that can beat leopards. With a loud squawk, Karoo sit down instead, earning him a bonk on the head.
"i swear, this keeps getting wackier and wackier." Ojiro can't help but to comment on, which is pretty much understatement of the year.
"...Did you just noticed that?" Sero asked.
Zoro was confuse by the creature, and Mr. 9 mocked him for getting distracted, and was able to backflip his way down to the swordsman, attacking him with his metal bats. Zoro was able to block his attack.
Mr. 9 was confident in his bats, convinced that Zoro is frightened of him until Zoro suddenly turned his blade to him. The swordsman clashed his blade into his bat, slowly backing him closer to the edge of the roof. The swordsman asked about his acrobatics, which made Mr. 9 backflip off the building.
"Look at how strong he is for a 'single digit.'" Katsuki sarcastically said.
Zoro wondered if there's anyone better here, and Miss Wednesday claimed it to be her, suddenly appearing behind him as she stood on top of her bird.
Using some perfume, Miss Wednesday swayed her hips, hoping that Zoro would be allured by her.
Mineta's certainly was, his eyes following her hips.
Zoro seemed more repulse by the perfume, not really affected by the dance. In fact, it was the perfume the brought him down to his knees.
Miss Wednesday planned to finish him off with her Peacock Slasher as Karoo her... way pass Zoro, and they were sent off the building.
"Welp, one more to go." Hizashi said, dusting his hands off.
Just as Zoro thought this fight is getting embarrassing, he was able to dodge Mr. 8's rain of bullets, escaping by using the hole.
The swordsman ran off, hiding behind a different building. While he thought Mr. 8's shotgun is a pain, Mr. 9 came out of the broken wooden structure and wants revenge for being beaten like that (even though he fell on his own).
"Kattobase Shiomi Bat!" A chain was shot out of Mr. 9's bat and was wrapped around Zoro's arm.
There was nowhere for Zoro to run, especially now that the agents have Luffy at knife point.
"Straw Hat, how the hell are you still asleep!?" Katsuki complained, which Zoro seems to share as well.
"How did Zoro sleep through a billion weather changes?" Mina reminded him.
Mr. 8 pulled on his tie, revealing the gun barrels from his curls. With another pull of his tie, he unleashed the bullets, and instead of taking the shot, Zoro pulled on the chain hard enough to send Mr. 9 flying straight into their path. He swung the unconscious Mr. 9 into Miss Wednesday and Karoo, taking care of them for the moment.
While Mr. 8 continuously shoot at him, Zoro used Luffy's big belly to bounce his way up and slice him.
Now that the fight's over, Zoro was glad to finally have a nice, quiet night as Luffy woke up for only a few seconds, only to fall back asleep.
"Oh, that woke you up." Katsuki kept on complaining.
The surviving agents ran, planning to hide until the Straw Hats leave, but they were soon met with the Unluckies. They begged for the duo to not report them.
Before the duo could attack the three, they were stopped by another duo, who complained about the boring job they were sent on.
The Unluckies seemed to sweat nervously as there was an explosion. In the smoke were two people.
The audience paid attention as Katsuki perked up with slight interest.
Zoro turned hi head as Mr. 8 tried to pick himself up, reminding himself of an important mission, but he was stopped by the duo: Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine.
Mr. 5 thought it was pitiful that they lost to a single swordsman as Miss Valentine laughed at their faces, reminding them of the rank difference between them.
"And you can do better?" Sero challenged.
While they are here to laugh at them, the two are also on a mission. Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday hoped they were going to stop Zoro, but in actuality, it's a completely different mission. They're after some criminals who found out their boss' secrets. While Mr. 5 doesn't know what those secrets are, their company's motto is "mystery."
"Ooooo... a twist. A betrayal in the company." Toru dramamtically said.
Finding out the boss' secret is a sin worthy of death.
"That must be one hell of a secret." Denki gaped.
When Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine investigated on who learned his secrets, they've discovered a 'VIP from a certain kingdom' sneaked into Baroque Works. Meanwhile, Nami was listening to their conversation.
Mr. 9 made sure to say his crown is just a hobby, but the two weren't talking about him. The 'sinners' are people missing from Alabasta Kingdom right now.
Mr. 8 immediately fired at them, causing a big explosion, not letting them lay a finger as he's the Squad Captain of Alabasta Kingdom Security.
Mina let out a gasp. "Miss Wednesday is a princess?!"
The duo weren;t affected by that explosion as they addressed Mr. 8 as Igaram and MIss Wednesday as Nefertari Vivi.
As Zoro realized he left Luffy down there, Vivi gaped at them and the picture of her.
"To Be Continued."
"Next epis-"
"That's it for today," Aizawa ejected the disk, getting a collective groan from the class. "And make sure you clean up the tissues. I don't want to imagine what they're like now."
As a couple of students started to clean up their tissue mess, Izuku looked up from his notebook to notice the blank TV screen. The rollercoaster of emotions from earlier that day popped up in his mind.
"I need to call Mom." Izuku told himself, which reminded the others of the earlier episodes as well.
"Yeah." "Totally." "Oh my god, yes."
There were a lot of calls to their moms that day.
Chapter 30 - Episode 66 & 67
Why did Nezu allow us to watch this anime? Aizawa thought on that Monday afternoon. Side by side, he, Hizashi, and Toshinori walked to Heights Alliance.
Scenes from yesterday's session popped up in his mind throughout the day; his students' tears for Bellemere and Nami, their anger towards the marines, and their joy at Arlong's defeat. Aizawa does admit that he felt the same, but at the same time, in the back of his mind, he wondered if Nezu is using One Piece as a sort of 'lesson' for the students; that the world isn't black and white.
Maybe he wanted to repurpose those DVDs when he watched them? That doesn't make much sense since it's beyond obvious you would need more than a month to watch all of One Piece, and that's if you have nothing to do. Nezu's a principal to the top hero academy in Japan, so it can't be possible.
...Is he actually a fan of One Piece? And this is some elaborate way for us to watch it? So far, it made the most sense to him, but at the same time, it doesn't make sense on why the principal would do this so convolutedly.
"Come on, all that stuff about the bar and Smoker were noncanon, and you like it."
Aizawa looked up to see the students waiting for them, chatting among themselves. A few of them looked up when the teachers came in.
"We're not discussing this." Katsuki groaned in annoyance. "We're not going to watch the fucking filler!"
"It's only like 10 percent of the anime." Denki shrugged.
"From a billion episode anime!"
"Then we should watch the movies instead." Mina suggested.
"They're also noncanon from the story."
"Then can you stop bitching whenever we have canon episodes about 'extras?'" Jiro sighed.
"They're-"
"Buggy's cover story is canon, along with Sanji's and Usopp's." Izuku interjected.
"And yet we're able to skip Curlicue and Long Nose's stories without much consequences."
"I think it's because they have to extend them."
"As filler!"
Aizawa cleared his throat, gaining the rest of the students' attention.
"We're going to continue this after we're done with One Piece." Kirishima said, going to his seat.
"We are NOT!" Katsuki groaned, absolutely annoyed.
"Settle down. Settle down." Aizawa sighed.
And like that, they're ready to watch One Piece.
Skipping episode 66's opening and recap, they were greeted with "All-Out Battle! Luffy vs. Zoro, Mysterious Grand Duel!"
"Wait, are those two going to fight?" Jiro asked, sounding rather frustrated.
"I mean, it would be cool if they did." Denki shrugged.
"Yeah, it would, but not right now!"
"...You have a point."
Igaram was still gunning down the duo as Zoro watches from above. The curly haired man called out to Vivi to escape, but with the flick of his finger, Mr. 5 sent an explosive powerful enough to make the man collapse. Vivi tried to help, but she was stopped by Miss Valentine, who was light enough to be carried by her umbrella.
She dropped down and kicked at Vivi, breaking her hair band. The princess tried to attack with her twirling Peacock Slashers, but Miss Valentine dodged in time.
"So Mr. 5;s quirk has something to do with explosive while Miss Valentine's involves... gravity? ...weight?" Izuku tried to guess, eyeing the umbrella.
Katsuki's eyes narrowed as Ochako looked more interested.
Mr. 9 kept bowing at Vivi, much to her annoyance, as Zoro passed by, carrying Luffy to the other side.
Vivi wants to know if Igaram is all right, but he wants her to escape from them. Vivi tried to ware them off with her weapon, but Mr. 9 held his bat off.
While he's having a hard time understanding this, they've been a pair for a long time, so he'll buy her some time.
"I don't know; Mr. 5 is picking his nose as if it was just another day." Shoji said.
"But it's sweet that Mr. 9 still cares about her even after the reveal." Aoyama happily sighed.
"Doesn't stop him from being pummel by the explosives guy though." Jiro said, causing the sparkly boy to frown.
Mr. 9 performed several backflios towards the duo, despite Vivi'a worried call, but Mr. 5 thought this pathetic sense of camaraderie would only bring about death.
Pulling out a booger, Mr. 5 aimed it at Mr. 9.
"Nose Fancy..."
"...Of Guts!"
"...Cannon!"
Mr. 5 flickered the booger at Mr. 9, setting off a big explosive right in his face and sent him flying into the waters.
"So that's his power." Izuku noted.
"I'm so sorry for thinking explosive sweat is disgusting." Jiro said, with a straight face, to Katsuki. "Explosive snot is much worst."
"What was that?!" The boy angerily turned to her.
"I mean, in all honesty, his snot is more useful." Denki shrugged, causing the ashy blond to sharply turn to him. "Like, have you seen the size of that explosion compared to the booger?"
"We are not talking about this right now."
"You have to admit that it's impressive." Todoroki said, earning a glare from him.
Zoro is shocked by Mr. 5's dangerous snot until Igaram grabbed his ankle, begging him to protect the princess in his place.
Vivi ran off with Karoo carrying her, but Miss Valentine and Mr. 5 ran after her.
When Igaram mentioned a reward, Zoro was still mad about the whole killing thing a minute ago, but Nami is absolutely interested, wanting one billion Beris in the exchange.
"Of course." Ochako sighed.
"One billion seems to be pretty steep, even for a kingdom." Mina said.
Igaram was horrified by the amount as Zoro thought she was asleep. Nami knew it was all an act; who would sleep in an overly suspicious town that welcomes pirates?
"Luffy, Usopp, and Sanji." Ojiro listed off.
Nami wants that promise to be official, but Igaram, a mere soldier, can't promise such sums of money. Nami asked if he's suggesting that a princess is worth less than that, pretty much threatening him.
"You drive a hard bargain, lady." Hizashi joked, letting out a laugh.
Igaram urged them to negotiate the terms with the princess directly, and Nami's willing to save her, so she demanded that Zoro go get her. The swordsman doesn't want to go along with her money-making schemes.
As Luffy started to stir, Nami claimed that the money is her's, but her contracts belong to all of him, much to Zoro's anger. The two argued as Luffy finally woke up and walk around to find the bathroom.
"Oh, now you want to wake up, Straw Hat." Katsuki griped.
Nami reminded him that he still owes her money since he was lent money for the swords back in Loguetown, but Zoro reminded her that he gave it all back. Then she told him that he agreed to pay her back 300%, so it's 300, 000 Beris in total. That means Zoro need to pay back 200, 000 Beri back.
:Nami, you loan shark!" Ochako dramatically cried out.
"But he did promised her." Izuku pointed out.
Zoro complained, but when Nami mentioned about not keeping a single promise, Zoro froze up, gritting his teeth.
Some of the students winced at what she said, suddenly remembering Zoro's promise to Kuina.
Tokoyami shook his head. "You shouldn't say such things, especially about promises."
"I mean, it's not she knew his promise to his friend." Sero scratched the back of his head.
Nami believes they're now eve, and Zoro knows she isn't going to die a good death. Honestly, Nami admits she's going to Hell.
Once Zoro ran off, Igaram berated himself for not being any stronger for the princess. She has to live for the kingdom!
"Don't worry, the others can handle it." Mina attempted to cheer him up, but it's obvious the man can't hear her in any possible way.
"Though it must really hurt his pride that he can't protect her any further." Toshinori slightly frowned.
As Vivi and Karoo ran for the ship docked behind the cactus rocks, Luffy was doing his business and planned on to do more sleeping when he saw the many fallen Baroque Works agents.
"And you've just noticed that?" Katsuki sighed.
"I thought we've already went through this." Todoroki said, glancing at him.
Vivi and Karoo went still on the run until an explosion blocked their path, causing them to stop. Seeing Mr. 5, the two ran off in a different direction. There, Vivi was able to meet Miss Monday, who directed her to the ships. She plans to hold the duo off.
"You got to love it when they help each other out, despite the fact that Vivi's a traitor to them." Toru said, which Aoyama nodded to.
Thanks to Zoro, they were all getting punished for failing their mission anyway. Plus she'd rather get her butt kicked shielding a friend. She told Vivi to run or else Mr. 8 and Mr. 9's sacrifices will be for nothing.
When Vivi hesitantly ran off, Mr. 5 was disappointed in all the betrayals, but he still prepared to fight, rolling up his sleeves. When Mr. 5 ran towards her, Miss Monday attempted to jab him with her log, but he dodged it with ease, taking her down.
Vivi looked back, hearing the explosion. In town, she saw the result as flames rosed higher than the buildings.
"Come on, Zoro." Mina hoped as the others worried for Vivi'a safety.
After the eyecatches pass, Mr. 5 explained that he is a 'bomb man' and he can make his entire body explode, thanks to his Bomu Bomu no Mi.
"Oh, so it's actually better than Bakugo's quirk." Denki causally said.
"What was that?!" Katsuki practically roared at him.
"He can make any part of his body explode, and he doesn't need to make any sparks. Sounds like a big improvement in comparison."
"He is right." Momo agreed. "While disgusting, Mr. 5 simply has to flick his snot at an opponent to create an explosion."
Katsuki gritted his teeth, trying his hardest to not just explode in front of the teachers. "Well... the man's a fictional character, so there's no way for us to really compare, is there?"
"Unless there's a quirk that makes anime characters real." Kirishima shrugged.
"No way, that guy would be like the richest person in the world." Mineta claimed. "We would know if such a quirk exist."
"Maybe he's facing copyright charges." Sero said.
"Wait, would it be considered slavery to sell sentient fictional characters?" Mina soon asked.
"If they have free will, I'm pretty sure it would." Izuku sweatdropped.
"We are not discussing a quirk that doesn't exist." Katsuki quickly complained.
Floating in the sky, Miss Valentine explained that, with her Kilo Kilo no Mi, she can change her weight to crush Miss Monday or to be light enough to be carried by the wind.
Slowly, Miss Valentine counted up, falling down to the ground. As the number went up, the faster she falls until she reaches-
"10000 Kilo Press!" Miss Valentine crashes straight into the fallen body of Miss Monday, easily uplifting the dirt around them.
As some of the students let out gasps, Izuku murmured to himself, "So, that's why they were paired up. Mr. 5's explosions can help Miss Valentine lift up high for a more effective Kilo Press."
Though she was now faced with the duo, Vivi is still determined to live for her kingdom, Just before Mr. 5's Nose Fancy Cannon could hit her, Zoro landed on the ground in front of her with his sword out. The booger hit the blade, splitting off into the two explosions away from them.
"Zoro!" "Yes!" "Alright, Mr. Bushido!" Students cheered out happily.
Though he avoided the street destroying blast, the swordsman was absolutely disgusted that he cut his booger.
This was earned with a few surprised laughter from the students.
"You didn't even touched it." Aizawa dryly said.
"I mean, it's still gross." Hizashi defended.
Vivi was going to attack Zoro, but he knocked her Peacock Slasher out of her hand and pointed his sword at her neck, saying he's here to rescue her.
"You don't normally threaten the people who you're trying to rescue." Iida said. A few eyes landed on a certain explosive boy.
"Hey, Princess here attacked first." Katsuki argued.
With Nami, she asked what Baroque Works is. At first, Igaram hesitated, but soon answered that it's a secret crime syndicate where none of its members know their boss' face or name. Its main work is espionage, assassination, larceny, and bounty-hunting, and all of it is done at their boss' command.
The navigator asked why would they listen to someone they don't know, and the answer is that Baroque Works' ultimate objective is the founding of an ideal nation.
"An ideal nation?" Izuku repeated, which was echoed by some of the other students. "In what way?"
Everyone who does well within the company now will be guaranteed a high social standing within the ideal nation that the boss will be creating. The boss' codename is Mr. 0, and the closer a person's codename is to zero, the higher that person's future standing will be and their strength.
"Wait, what about the ones that have day codenames?" Denki asked.
"They seemed to be paired with the number codename, so maybe they'll be in the same social standing." Shoji guessed.
Miss Valentine could see Zoro as the one who defeated their lowly employees in this town. Mr. 5 asked why would he want to protect Vivi. Zoro simply claimed that he got his own circumstances to worry about, but still, the duo consider him their enemy one way or another.
Mr. 5 and Zoro were about to fight until Luffy came in. At first, Zoro told the captain that he can take care of it, but he noticed that Luffy looks angry.
Luffy wants to make him pay for what he did.
"WHAT?!"
"What did Zoro do besides defeat the spies!?" Ochako shouted.
Zoro has no clue what he's going on about. Luffy claimed that Zoro's being an ingrate to the villagers who welcomed them.
There was a round of facepalms throughout the room.
"Oh my god, this is how their fight going to start?" Jiro said in disbelief.
"Look Luffy bro, I know at face value, Zoro did beat those guys, but I highly doubt that he would beat them up for no good reason!" Kirishima shook his head.
Vivi thought Luffy was being dull headed, and Mr. 5 thought internal strife was lame, but Miss Valentine just wanted to get rid of everyone who's interfering with their mission.
Zoro tried to explain himself, but Luffy jumped into action, refusing any excuse.
"Funny how he still trusted Nami after she stolen their ship, but he isn't trusting Zoro on why he could had done this." Todoroki pointed out.
"Let's just hope that this doesn't happen again." Izuku sighed.
Luffy tried to punch him, only for Zoro to dodge out of the way. His punch was so powerful that it destroyed the rock behind him.
In shock, Zoro asked if he's trying to kill him... which Luffy does want to do.
"I seriously hope this is a one time thing." Izuku whispered to himself. "It seems way too out of character for Luffy to do this."
Zoro dodged attack after attack from Luffy, seeing that he's serious. As the two fought, Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine could see they're not going to interfere with their mission to eliminate the princess.
"Goddamn it, you rubbery asshole!" Katsuki complained. "You're just going to trust the strangers than the guy who've been with you from the beginning!"
The duo were running after Vivi, but during their fight, Zoro kicked the rotund rubber man straight into the two, crashing into a building.
Miss Valentine and Mr. 5 were already annoyed with the two pirates, planning to kill them already.
"I hope this convinces you." Katsuki grumbled.
There was an explosion from the building, lifting Miss Valentine up high for an attack. Vivi tried to warn Zoro, but he doesn't have time for that.
Walking out of the rubble was Luffy, no longer ball shaped, carrying a bloodied Mr. 5. Vivi can't believe he took out a Baroque Works officer agent.
As Miss Valentine chattered on about her attack, Zoro attempted to talk the captain down, but Luffy still won't believe him on the principal of 'enemies wouldn't give them food to eat.'
There was another round of facepalms.
"Have you ever heard of food poisoning?" Iida pointed out.
And what about 5 and the Lemon Lady?!" Katsuki angrily added. "They're also attacking the people who gave you food!"
"10, 000 Kilo Press!" Miss Valentine was sent down towards Zoro for an attack, but Zoro simply moved aside, casually carrying on his conversation with Luffy.
A couple of students let out snickers and surprised laughs, seeing how Zoro barely acknowledged her.
Seeing how he cant talk sense into Luffy, the swordsman has to kill him, much to Vivi'a confusion.
"Gumo-Gumo no..."
"Oni..."
The two sprinted on ahead; their eyes had a mystically effect to them.
"...Bazooka!"
"...Giri!"
They clashed, sending off a shockwave. They struggled against each other, as Zoro decide to see which one is stronger, which Luffy agrees to.
"I mean, that does sound cool, but we don't want to find out this way." Toru said.
"Tatsu-Maki!" Zoro created a whirleind that sent Luffy flying into the air, but even with that, the rubber man was able to stretch his arm out to punch in the face.
The two crashed into the surrounding buildings. Vivi is uncertain if she could escape with these two running amok.
Vivi and Karoo proceeded with caution until Luffy and Zoro came out of the rubble, fighting each other once again. Mr. 5 doesn't want to be shamed by the idiots as Miss Valentine thought they should show how terrifying they could be.
"Honestly, I don't think anyone can top their destruction now," Tokoyami said.
"But I don't think it would end with one of them dead." Shoji added.
The agents ran at them for mocking them, but immediately stopped when they saw the looks on the pirates' faces. For interfering with their fight, Luffy and Zoro punched them out of the way.
"To Be Continued."
"Like I said-"
"Yeah, we get it! They're idiots."
Moving onto episode 67, they skipped the opening and was met with the aftermath of the two's punches and the title card of "Deliver Princess Vivi! The Luffy Pirates Set Sail."
"Hopefully the two would stop fighting by then." Iida sighed.
Luffy and Zoro can't believe how annoying those agents are as Vivi and Karoo can't believe their strength.
The two decided to continue on their fight, the air crackling with electricity, but before they could strike each other, Nami came out of nowhere and beat them to the punch, knocking them out.
"Thank you, Nami!" Ochako called out, exhausted.
"I guess there is someone who can stop them." Tokoyami sweatdropped.
"It's called a 'woman's wraith.'" Hizashi joked.
Nami demand on what they're doing, reminding them they should keep Vivi safe for the money. Vivi doesn't know what they're talking about, asking why did they save her.
As Luffy and Zoro continue to fight each other in Nami's fists, the navigator asked for a contract with her, then knocked the two guys on the head.
"Not the best first impression." Momo managed to crack a smile.
"But what else can she do? Ribbit." Tsuyu shrugged.
Later, Luffy was explained what actually happened, laughing since he thought Zoro cut them down because he didn't get any food he liked, which Zoro didn't like being compared to him.
Before Katsuki could shout bullshit at that, Kirishina said, "Let's just pretend none of this happened."
Nami told the two to shut up, then continued on her conversation with Vivi, still wanting the one billion Beris as compensation. It has to be a good offer.
Vivi can't accept it, but thanked her. When asked why she can't, Vivi asked if she knows about Alabasta. Nami said no.
Vivi went on to explain that Alabasta is a peaceful kingdom as a great civilization and nation, or at least it used to be. Right now, it's in the middle of a civil war.
Worried expressions came over the students.
For years, signs of a revolution have begun to appear, and when the people revolted, the kingdom fell into total chaos. One day, she've heard of the name of the organization, Baroque Work, and learn that the populace was being manipulated by this group, but there were secured information on them. She had ask Igaram for help to infiltrate and learn of their boss and their goal.
"It's amazing you were able to do so." Iida complimented.
She was able to find out their goal: 'The founding of an ideal nation,' which what's Igaram have said before too. Vivi knows that's what the boss claimed, but it's actually a lie. The true goal is to take over Alabasa Kingdom. She needs to hurry back, tell everyone the truth, and stop the fighting.
She trembled at the thought of if she doesn't do something.
Izuku nodded. "We understand."
"Yeah! I'm sure the Straw Hats can help out." Ochako encouraged.
Nami understood the reason why she won't get the money. Luffy asked who's the one pulling the strings. In a panic, Vivi told him not to ask that or else they'll be in danger since they would never stand against one of the Shichibukai, Crocodile.
"...But you just told us." Todoroki pointed out.
After a moment of silence, Vivi and Nami went pale as Luffy has no clue who that is.
"Since he is one, he must be quite powerful." Tokoyami noted, remembering Mihawk shares the same title.
From the roof, there were the Unluckies who heard what they've said and flown off. Nami angrily shook Vivi, demanding answers. Honestly, Luffy is quite excited while Zoro thought it wasn't too shabby. Vivi apologized, but Nami was still angry, finding that being hunted down by a Shichibukai overwhelming. Honestly, Zoro and Luffy wants to meet him soon, much to Nami's chagrin.
"Seriously?" Jiro sighed.
"You need more preparation when you do." Iida said.
Nami attempted to run away, but she noticed one of the Unluckies already has drawings of the three. Now there's no place for her to run.
"Well, you can't leave the Straw Hats now." Izuku sweatdropped.
"Especially when you're in the middle of the Grand Line." Todoroki added.
"At least Usopp and Sanji wouldn't be recognized." Momo pointed out.
"Oh yeah, that really helps." Denki grinned.
"I mean, so far. We don't really have a plan here." Ojiro said.
Luffy still thinks it's exciting, now they're on Baroque Works' hit list. Vivi attempted to cheer Nami up with her savings, but Igaram told them not to fear since he has a plan.
The students let out surprised laughs, seeing Igaram was dressed up as Vivi, carrying three dummies.
Both Vivi and Igaram knows that now Vivi knows the boss' secrets, a thousand or so people will be after her. Igaram's plan is to pretend to be Vivi, and sail straight to Alabasta with three dummies on board. While the pursuers are busy with him, she and the Straw Hats will head to Alabasta via the normal route. Nami didn't agree while Luffy finally learned of the promised the old man wants, agreeing to it.
Nami refused because Crocodile is now after them.
"But Vivi and her kingdom is in trouble." Ochako argued back.
"Once again, they're not heroes." Aizawa reminded the class. "It's not like they've never done morally questionable things before."
Luffy asked if Crocodile is really that strong, and Igaram told him the man's a Shichibukai; a legally recognized pirate, meaning he has no bounty on his head. Though the bounty he had long ago was 80 million Beris. As Nami pointed out, that's four times Arlong's bounty.
Denki let out a low, impressed whistle. "That's more than double Luffy's."
"That makes him even more intimidating!" Toru panicked for a bit.
Despite Nami's protests, Luffy still agreed to it.
As they were about to part ways, Igaram asked Vivi for the Eternal Pose, which Nami never knew existed, To put it simply, it's like a permanent version of the Log Pose, where the Eternal Pose, where the Eternal Pose will never forget the magnetic energy of the island and will always pointed there.
The one Igaram holds is set to Alabasta.
"Huh, that makes a lot of sense." Iida nodded. "There has to be a way for them to ship materials and the such."
"And the marines would probably need them to know the locations of their bases too." Izuku added, taking down notes.
Igaram told Vivi to take the island hopping route to Alabasta. While he haven't taken that path himself, it should take two or three islands if she follow the Log.
They've said their goodbyes, as Igaram reassures Vivi to be careful, hoping they will meet safety to their motherland.
The four watched him sail away.
Katsuki stretched out his body, letting out a yawn, bored of the pause. "Alright, are we going or not?"
From the darkness, a flurry of hands reached out. In the middle of the sea, there was a large explosion, one strong enough to burn away the decoys.
Both the audience and the characters onscreen stared at the scene in disbelief.
Ochako hit Katsuki in his side, not looking away from the screen.
"Fuck you, I'm not the one who did that!" Katsuki yelled at her.
The Straw Hats have to run off to the Going Merry, hoping the other agents won't get them.
Nami told the princess to hurry, but she saw Vivi was biting her lower lip hard enough to draw blood. Nami pulled her into an embrace, letting her cry. She promised that they will help.
"They will!" Ochako encouraged, a little teary eyed.
"Just what was that ability?" Izuku murmured, referring to the disembodied arms. "Is there really just a Devil Fruit that allows you to summon hands? Or was it just a metaphor?"
After the eyecatches-
"Oh hey, there's one for Vivi!" Mina pointed out.
"Wait, does that mean she's part of the crew now?" Toru asked, excited.
"Yes! Another girl on the crew!" Mineta happily cheered, much to the girls' dismay.
"But she hasn't done anything!" Katsuki complained.
-Luffy entered the building to get Usopp and Sanji to bring them back to the ship. They sure have one hell of a wake up call as Luffy grabbed them by the nose and leg respectfully and slam them straight through the house, dragging them all the way to the boat.
As some of the students laughed at the two's misery, Aizawa quickly whispered, "Don't you dare wake me up like that."
"I would never dream of it even if I could." Hizashi waved it off.
As Vivi and Nami ran for the ship, from the flames, a woman floating in the water noted how the decoys are rather foolish.
As the laughter died down, Izuku narrowed his eyes. "So, you're our detonator."
As Zoro lifted the anchor and Luffy dragged Usopp and Sanji onto the ship, Nami kept telling Vivi that they go look for her duck... until Zoro pointed out Karoo is on the ship already.
As they were able to sail off, Zoro asked Vivi for the number of people after them. She doesn't know, recognizing that there are about 2000 people in Baroque Works and there are several town-like bases like this one nearby. Nami is worried they might send 1000 people after them.
This is when Usopp and Sanji woke up, wanting to stay here longer.
"Well, we have a good reason to leave." Jiro sighed, glad when Nami knocked some sense into them.
It was almost morning as a fog begins to surround them. Someone was glad that they've managed to escape those people and warned them about the rocks. Nami agreed until she realized that she doesn't recognize that voice.
Casually perched on the railing was a mysterious woman dressed in cowboy garb. She mentioned meeting Mr. 8 a short while ago.
"How did she get on the ship?!" Denki panicked for the moment.
"Of course the hot villain chick looks good in purple." Mineta drooled a bit.
Vivi was furious at her for killing Igaram while Luffy was more angry about how she got on the ship. The princess demand what Miss All Sunday wants.
Nami asked who's number Miss All Sunday is assigned to, and Vivi claimed it's Mr. 0, the boss. Of course, Nami is horrified by that.
"She must be incredibly strong to be the boss' partner." Momo said.
Luffy asked if that's bad, and Vivi claimed that Miss All Sunday was the only one who knew the boss' identity. How Vivi and Igaram knew that was because they were following her, or rather Miss All Sunday allowed them to follow her. With that, Luffy concluded she's good.
"No! No, it doesn't!" Katsuki facepalmed.
Vivi figured that Miss All Sunday is the one who told Crocodile that they've discovered his identity, which Luffy now understood she's bad.
Vivi tried to demand answers from her, but Miss All Sunday thought it was ridiculous that a princess would try her best to save her kingdom while making herself an enemy of Baroque Works.
The image of Igaram flashed in Vivi's mind as she screamed at her. Sanji and Usopp had Miss All Sunday at gun/slingshot point while Zoro and Nami held their weapons up.
"Oh shit, you know it's serious when Sanji's about to attack a lady." Jiro said in surprise.
Miss All Sunday would prefer if they didn't point such dangerous objects at her.
Suddenly, Sanji and Usopp were pushed away from her as something slapped the staff out of Nami's hands, along with Zoro's swords.
They were confuse on what Devil Fruit powers she has.
"Alright, are you the one with the telekinesis powers?" Mina guessed.
"Or is it, like with Buggy, the show's hiding your quirk for now?" Kirishima wondered, squinting his eyes.
"Maybe her Devil Fruit has something to do with those hands from before," Izuku theorized. "Though would there be a Devil Fruit specifically about hands?"
"A Hand-Hand Fruit? I mean, it could be possible." Toshinori said with a shrug.
Once Sanji got a good look at Miss All Sunday, he was lovestruck. She told them to not be hasty; she haven't been given any order. She has no reason to fight.
Suddenly, Luffy's hat fly straight off of his head and into her hand.
"Well, Luffy's certainty going to fight you now since you've done that." Ojiro said.
Miss All Sunday recognize Luffy as the captain, as the rubber man wants to fight her while Usopp hides behind the mast, demanding she leaves. She just put the straw hat over her own, saying how unlucky they are to have picked up a princess Baroque Works is out to kill, but what's unluckier is the course their Log Pose indicates. The next island they're going to is called Little Garden.
"Little Garden? That doesn't sound too bad." Toshinori commented on.
"Names can be deceiving." Aizawa sighed.
"For all we know, it could be a forest full of... I don't know, poison!" Hizashi tried to warn.
Miss All Sunday is confident that they would be wiped out before they reach Alabasta. As she asked if that's foolish to them, she tossed the hat back to Luffy and an Eternal Pose to Vivi. With that Eternal Pose, they can skip past Little Garden since it points to an island just before Alabasta: Nothing At All Island. She claimed that none of their employees know that course so no one will chase them.
Nami was confuse. Is she actually a good person?
"No way! It has to be some kind of a trick!" Mineta refused.
"Maybe that island is the forest full of poison." Denki suggested.
"Or maybe it's a setup to capture them." Iida offered instead.
Vivi demanded on why she's giving them this as Zoro believes it to be a trap, much to Miss All Sunday's amusement.
Vivi struggled with trusting this woman or taking the safest route, but Luffy already decided for her by crushing the Eternal Pose with his hand.
Nami kicked him in the face for the chance that this agent is a good person.
"I mean, we don't know for sure." Tsuyu said.
"For all we know, he could had saved them." Toru's sleeves shrugged.
"Still, we don't know what her intentions are." Jiro sighed.
As Luffy told the agent that she's not the one who decides this ship's course, they shared a look until she smiled. Luffy doesn't like her since she blew up the 'old tube hair' guy.
As Miss All Sunday walked off to the side, she claimed that she doesn't hate high-spirited people-
"Please don't be like Nemuri." Aizawa sighed.
-and if they survive, she hopes to meet them again. Luffy doesn't want to.
Hopping over the railings, she landed on Bunchi the turtle and sailed away, much tot he others' shock.
"You got to love how strange this world is." Hizashi happily said, amused.
Vivi collapsed to her knees, frustrated that she couldn't tell what that woman was thinking, but Zoro and Nami told her to not stress it. Usopp demanded answers as Sanji hopes that Vivi gets to join the crew.
One transition later, the two were caught up. Sanji was glad he can be Vivi's prince from now on while Usopp was much more terrified, as usual.
Vivi asked if it's really all right for her to be on the ship, thinking she'll only trouble them, but Nami told her that if she didn't want to, she should have done so from the beginning.
"I mean, Igaram was the one who asked Zoro to protect her." Momo pointed out.
As the crew sailed off to Little Garden, Miss All Sunday turned around and made a comment on what a sight the island is.
Now, in a jungle, there was a tiger as the place shook by an unseen force, but by the giant human footprint, you may guess what it is.
"To Be Continued."
"...Let me guess, that was Little Garden." Aizawa said.
"We're going to see giants?" Kirishima asked in awe as Mineta hoped for giant women.
