| - Previous: Graveyard of a Madman Part 16 Glory: I told you, it doesn't make any sense to want to go swimming if you've eaten a devil fruit! You'd sink to the bottom no matter how many floaties you put on your arms! Your entire body would go limp, and you would fall out of them anyway! Chris: Oh, come on! There must be a way! I must swim with the dolphines somehow! Especially the giant dolphines of the GrandLine, I mean, the New World has those too right? There must be a way! Glory: Chris! I swear, if I have to go out there and swim to pick you up, I am going to mash your face into clay pudding! Do not attempt to build the floaty suit, you'll go out into the sea and die! Chris: But... but.... Lys! Lys: [Cringe] Erm... Chris: Lys! You have phasing powers, right? You could phase me through the water and it would be just like swimming, right? Lys: I can do a lot of stuff. Like this... [Her body phased through the table, and then phased through the deck, and she was gone.] Chris: Wow, that still looks weird. Glory: Wow, we actually agree on something. Chris: [Turned back to Glory.] But... Glory: Nope! Argument stupid, argument done! [Threw up her hands and walked away. Then she spotted the newspaper seagull.] Ah, FINALLY! Where the hell have you been?! [Walked up to him and searched her pockets.] Sakura: Captain... Chris: Ah! Sakura! Could you help me... Sakura: You can't swim... [This caused him to scoff and growl, his fist clinching.] But look, I think you'll remember him. [Held up the newspaper to show the headline CATMAN RINJI SPOTTED IN HOTDOG ISLAND.] Chris: Oh, hey! Rinji! Nice! [Picked up the paper, and started reading.] Oooo, Hotdog Island! No one can eat hotdogs like me! [Whispered toward Sakura.] I can make my stomach expand. Sakura: I know. Chris: [Belched away from her and kept reading.] Whoa, and entire Marine Squadron? Well, that won't earn him many new friends. He even put that poor giant in the hospital. I mean really, a giant! Poor defenseless insect. Sakura: A giant is not an insect. Chris: It's not?! Then what is... Sakura: An ant.... Chris: Ooohhh right... ant. Oh! Giants! Wow! I mean it took me, Spike, and Timber to bring one down on Fringe. Chris: [Reading.] Oh! Additional troops are going to hotdog island! Glory: Ummmm Chris? You remember when we saw that dragon? Chris: Not now, Glory, Rinji may need his catnip faster than I expected. [He put the newspaper down on the table, and Sakura caught it before it blew away.] Hmmmmm, the island might be made of hotdogs, and that alone should be reason enough... Glory: CHRIS!!! Chris: GAH! [Was slapped in the face with a newspaper, and as he pulled it off of his face, Glory pointed to the section where a Dragon destroyed G-33.] A Dragon? What, were you wanting to keep it as a pet? Glory: [Face palm] Okay, you remember the part where a dragon flew out of a building?! Chris: Oh, yeah, and Rinji was naked. Good times. Glory: Yeah, don't you think it's a little coincidental that a dragon just HAPPENS to be spotted a few islands away after the Catman was spotted? Chris: My God, Rinji's in trouble! Glory: Oh, oh my God. Finally! [Threw up her hands again.] Chris: Fetch me my dragon costume... I'm going under cover. Glory: Errr not again with the costume... Hanuman: [Walked out of the main hall.] Hanuman make dinner! Wash hands, or Hanuman crush bones! --- "Now everybody's died! So til our tears are dried! We'll drink and drink and drink and then we'll drink some more! We'll dance and sing and fight until the early morning light. Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up, and then we're drinking once again!" Thoosa: So, Lee, since you're a Pirate Admiral, do you know Big Momma? Lee: [Face full of burger, he shook his head and gave a mouthful of] No... Thoosa: Ooohh, I'm sure she'd love to meet you! Maybe after this island you could come with us! Do you play an instrument like Jiro does? Lee: Uhhhhh... Well, no, but-- Thoosa: Oh, no worries! I'll sneak you on board somehow! [Kept stuffing her face.] Jiro: [Scooted his chair back and stood.] If you would excuse me... [Pushed his chair in and walked away.] Usagi: Ugh... [Shifted in her sleep.] Turn down the music a little... I've gotta be up in an hour... Mary: Oh, so sorry, Usagi. [Turned to the other table.] HEY!!! Mary: For God's sake, Knave! It's like one in the morning, and some people are trying to sleep! KEEP IT DOWN! Knave: Aww man... [Got off of the table and sat down.] Fine, but this is under protest! Carson: Yeah, Mary, lighten up! Keep this up and I won't ask you out! DenDen: You were sent to Fringe, simply to track down and contain the Primordial Dragon Devil Fruit. You were never given permission to go with Catman Rinji on his pirate crew. Jiro: I am aware of this, but not only have I detained and dealt with Demoire the Muscle, and now I have new information involving the Primordial Dragon Fruit. DenDen: You're talking about the attack on G-33... You believe that the two have something in common? Jiro: There is no doubt in my mind. If the location was correct, then it will not take him long to reach this island. Activate Operation: Coffin Nail. DenDen: You're sure about this... You understand what will happen if you are wrong. Jiro: I know very well what will happen, but I am not. If he is coming here, and Rinji is already made, we have no way of getting off this island without being spotted. Send the order immediately. DenDen: We await your update in due course. Jiro: Apollo out. [Hung up the Den Den Mushi.]
