[When the feed first switches on, it's at angle, coming from the ground. A rather angry teenager is shown, kicking pebbles around the empty streets. He looks around at the delapidated buildings around him, and huffs.]

What the hell's up with this stupid place?! I gotta get back to Fishman Island and kick Hordy's ass!

AND MY CREW'S NOT EVEN HERE, WHAT THE HELL'S UP WITH THAT!?!?!??! [In his anger, Luffy punches a nearby wall, leaving large cracks, and eventually crumbles. He pouts angrily before perking up.]

I know! I'll just take a look from one top of the buildings! [He bends forward, putting his arms behind him and grinning widely.]

YOSH!!!! Gomu Gomu no..........ROCKET! [He swings his arm in front of him, reaching for the top of a nearby building. But rather than having his arms shoot toward the roof, they didn't stretch at all, and instead fell flat on his face. He laid still for a few moments before jerking up, even angrier tha before.]

WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!? WHY CAN'T I USE MY GOMU GOMU POWERS!?!?!?!??!

It does! It's really good against fishmen!

Which way's the dock?

[fierybluebird]

Huh... really? I wouldn't think fishman karate was susceptible to that.

Ah... pan your camera around.

[straw_hat]

Well, she sent on flying with a blast of wind.

[Does so! Get a good look at those streets.]

[fierybluebird]

Wow, that is pretty strong, eh.

[Tilts around to figure it out.] Okay follow this street straight for now.

[straw_hat]

Yeah, she's awesome!

Got it! [Goes on said street.

THIS MAY BE THE FIRST TIME HE WON'T GET LOST.]

[fierybluebird]

I can't wait to see her again then, eh.

[That's because Marco knows enough to know to direct him as he goes.]

Okay turn starboard -- towards that darker street. Any monsters yet?

[straw_hat]

I bet she'd like to she you again, too.

[He goes down the street and looks around.] Oh yeah, I saw some earlier. They were annoying.

[fierybluebird]

That'd be nice.

But no troubles, even with your chip in, right?

[straw_hat]

I'd like more of my crew here, too.

Nope! They were kinda weak.

[fierybluebird]

I feel the same way about mine. Not like they'd have another way to see Ace again.

All right good. The dinosaurs are good for meat if you like raptor steaks. But don't bother with the big black horned behemoths. They just dissolve. It's weird.

[straw_hat]

...yeah. It'd be good for all of them.

Steak!?! [Drooling.] Are they tasty?

[fierybluebird]

Aye.

Yeah, sometimes. You could try catching one for Ace to cook. Assuming we haven't dwindled their numbers too much.

[straw_hat]

Awesome! I'll go get some later! Should last a couple of days.

[fierybluebird]

If you spread it out, no problem.

[straw_hat]

....this'll be tough.

[fierybluebird]

Aye. Ask japan and Ace for help. They're good at that.

[Well... mostly. Japan always gives into temptation and Ace is still a D. But they know how to ration anyway.]

[straw_hat]

Ace'll make it worse! He eats almost as much as I do!

[fierybluebird]

Believe me, I remember. It'll be fine, eh.

[straw_hat]

He can catch his own food. He's good at that, so it'll be okay.

[fierybluebird]

Aye. I'm not worried.

[straw_hat]

Neither am I. Heheh, but he might fall asleep while trying to catch them!

[fierybluebird]

[Snickers.] Or while cooking.

[straw_hat]

[He laughs.] At least he won't get burned.

[fierybluebird]

Yeah, just gotta make sure he doesn't burn the food, eh?

[straw_hat]

Yeah! Now we can have barbeque whenever we want!
