"It happened one day when Zoro was in this restaurant, having a meal as a man walked into the room. It was Helmeppo, the captain's son and the same man who teased Zoro with my rice ball. This time he had brought in something dangerous to everyone, his dog... or should I say wolf since it was more wild animal then anything else. It was growling and howling while snapping at people as if it was trying to take a bit out out of anyone it could reach.
It was then the leash broke with the wolf getting loose and ready to attack. Zoro took a moment to knock out the wolf with one of his swords before turning it on to Helmeppo, saving everyone in the place from an animal attack. He then told off the captain's son and knocked him down, telling Helmeppo he was an idiot and would pay if he tried it again.
Helmeppo did nothing then other then running home to daddy. Once home, he got all of the Marines he could so he could arrest Zoro as well as everyone in the restaurant. Likely so they couldn't tell the story of him getting beaten up by a bounty hunter. He said they had commited treason and were to be executed for threatening a superior, but I think this was just to get Zoro to do what the meanie wanted. Cause the swordman made a deal with the slimeball that he could be arrested instead.
Then came the deal that if Zoro could go without food and water for a month while on the cross rig, he would go free." commented Rika as she finished the story for all of them to hear. They had walked with her as she headed back to the restaurant where it all started from what she told them.
In the eating establishment was the man in the purple suit who was the captain's son. He was talking to a number of the people inside, "I can wait for tomorrow so I can kill... execute that treasonious pirate hunter for insult... for commiting crimes against the world government. Bet he's really a pirate pretending to be a bounty hunter, I could get a reward when he gets the noose. Don't want to waste the bullets on that piece of crap."
Koby was watching Luffy who had been emotionally involved with the story, his head strangely shaded by the straw hat he wore. He keep on walking, changing direction so he was heading to the location of the Marine's child. Without warning a fist smashed into the face of the rude blond man, one connected to a body and a head wearing a straw hat. All noise stopped. A hand grabbed the shirt of the man and dragged him from the table to the street outside. Helmeppo landed hard, taking moments until he got to his feet.
"You're deadmeat. My father is going to send you to the gallows, then I'll feed what's left to my dogs. Hear that dogmeat?" said the man in purple as he began to run off to the base.
"Luffy, what are you doing? What have you done? Are you out of your mind?" asked Koby as he started to freakout with anger.
At the base...
A stone statue of a muscular man with an axe for a right hand and a jaw made of metal was being raised up on the top of the Marine base. Looking on was the identical man, dressed in a sleeveless dark blue shirt and pants of a light blue with stripes the same colour as the shirt. He was blone with a sleeveless caot of a pale blue with red inner trim and lapels, with blue and gold tassled shoulder pads. He also was wearing combat boots.
The man in the violet suit, who could have passed as a younger twin, ran up to him. Pantting for a moment, the man spoke, "Daddy, some criminal attacked me at the restaurant again. You have to arrest him and have him executed like Zoro."
A mean left hook slammed into the face of the younger man, as the older man spoke, "You're worthless, you know that? Getting beaten twice within a two month span. I should just let you get your licks until you can man up and fight back. But this is going to reflect badly on me with the rest of the villagers and I can have that, can I? So can you tell me who this idiot who dare strike at a Captain's son is?"
"It was a guy on a straw hat with shorts and a sleeveless shirt, he was also wearing sandels and had some kind of weird thing on his wrist. I didn't get the greatest look at him, since he just snuck up behind me and pop me one by surprise. I think his hair was black or brown. He must be out of his mind, maybe he's criminally insane psychopath who attacks people for no reason. Who knows how many people he has killed... or eaten? He's mad blood-drinking, brain-eating mass murder who wants to kill everyone here at the Marine base. Cause it's the only source of law and justice in the area so if he can bring it down he can build a fortress of crime and evil. He's a pirate, daddy, I bet you he's a pirate!" explained the man-child as he expanded on what he had been saying, letting his mouth run away as he could convince his father of the worse of a man who had the most limited encounter with Helmeppo.
