All the guys' attempts were lost in wain. The soldiers, led by Morgan, could only stare blankly at Nami, their eyes rolling out onto their foreheads. Fruit producers in East Blue were extremely rare, so the reaction to them, almost always, looked exactly the same. And start to bore after the first fifty times.

- Devil Fruit ... you have the power of the Devil Fruit, - Morgan said, regaining some semblance of composure.

- The achievement "Captain Obvious" of the third class is credited, - said ... Johnny! Close communication with Luffy has never passed without consequences for anyone.

- State one hundred more things that are obvious to all and get the achievement of the second class, - Yosaku immediately added.

- And for five hundred you will not only be given the first class, but also a cool fridge magnet, - finished Johnny.

- Guys ... I'm so proud of you !!! - Luffy burst into tears loudly, burying his face in the crook of his elbow.

- Ryu, Yosaku, two weeks banned from conversations with Luffy lasting more than ten seconds! - turning to the guys and pointing at them her already assembled pole, Nami said sternly. - You have pronounced complications from excessive abuse of communication with our captain.

- Traitor! - Luffy immediately stopped sobbing. - You are not getting any more ice cream! And in general, how long will you just stand here and look beautiful? Faster bring down all these sailors, - the guy poked his finger in the direction of the Marines, - I need to call my beloved Orc and grandfather, and they will definitely bother me!

- S-sir! - one of the soldiers drew himself to attention.- If she truly possesses the power of the Devil Fruit, then we ...

- I'll take care of the girl personally, and you'll deal with the others, - Morgan ordered.

- Is it just me, or is this guy really delusional? - Yosaku asked, puzzled.

- I don't know what kind of weed he has, but this thing, apparently, really does not kick in in a childish way! - Johnny nodded wisely.

- Oh, "Dumb-head" Morgan, I wonder if you even know who we are? - Yosaku asked.

- Insulting the officers of the patrol is punishable by death, worthless hunter!

- Hmm… you know, - the puzzled guy scratched his chin. - And you already told us about the insults, you stupid, worthless idiot officer of the Marines ... I wonder how many death sentences I have earned with my phrase?

- I feel a little uncomfortable, - Johnny admitted unexpectedly. - I've somehow got used to the fact that the marines are trying not to mess with us once again, and I'm not talking about pirates at all. So when your reputation is brushed off as if it's worthless ... Luffy-aniki, we sure can't kill them all? Or at least just Morgan?

- Don't worry, this is a good lesson for you for the future, - Luffy chuckled. - Now you know that no matter how terrible your reputation becomes in the future, there will always be some suicidal idiot who decides to verify its authenticity in practice. Seriously Nami, bring them all down! - Luffy finished rolling his eyes.

- Yes, captain!

- You think that some civilian girl, even if she has the power of the Devil Fruit, will really cope with ... - and that was all that Morgan had time to say, before the strike of Nami's pole did break his iron jaw and sent him flying. The flight was short. The streets in the city could not boast of a great width, therefore, after a few meters, Morgan smacked himself into the stone wall of the house. From the impact, the entire wall went into large cracks, but still resisted, but Morgan was much less fortunate. Falling back onto the road, he remained motionless. A bloody stain began to blur under his head.

- And it's all? - Johnny drawled in disappointment. - And this is after all the crap he's told us here?

Admittedly, Luffy and Yosaku weren't too happy either. Hell, even Nami didn't mind punching Morgan a couple more times! But the reality turned out to be cruel.

- I hate such self-confident weaklings, - Yosaku sighed. - You can't even beat them properly. Just one savory blow and they are already passed out, and there is no pleasure in kicking the unconscious body ... Well, at least when such a weakling has many subordinates, you can always take your soul away to them.

Before Yosaku had time to finish all the marines, up to this moment, incredibly shocked by such a quick reprisal against their captain, burst into stormy cries of delight. The sailors began to throw not only their uniform caps into the air, but also their weapons! True, they caught him without any problems.

- Hurray-ah-ah !!!

- End of the tyranny of Morgan !!!

- No more Morgan !!!

And everything is in the same spirit. Moreover, not even a minute had passed when the whole street was jam-packed with happy townspeople. And five minutes later, without any doubts, the whole city rejoiced - an enthusiastic roar was such that even Zoro woke up, who usually could not be woken up with a shot from a cannon.

The unconscious Morgan, under the joyful crying of the crowd - no joke, a good half of the assembled people burst into tears of happiness - was imprisoned in shackles, and several handcuffs at once. Considering that Morgan was a big man - exactly two and a half meters - such precautions did not seem excessive to the soldiers. And now, when they began to drag Morgan to prison, something happened that no one expected. First a shot rang out, and then:

- No-nobody m-move!!! - Helmeppo's voice trembled to match himself. His legs were shaking, he himself was paler than chalk, his whole face was covered with large drops of sweat, and the pistol in his hand only by some miracle remained pointed at ... Koby! - I-imm-edia-tely re-relea-se m-my fa-fath-er !!! Or I'll k-kill him !!!

- That's so unexpected! - Johnny chuckled.

- No close contact with Luffy for three weeks, - Nami commented on his words.

When Morgan was knocked out, Koby came down the porch to look at his body, so Helmeppo had no problem getting around everyone and going out to the boy. We must give him his due, he chose the most suitable goal for himself. Judging by his appearance, he simply could not threaten anyone else. After all, Koby not only looked the most harmless of the group, but in fact was.

- Luffy, why didn't you stop him ?! - Turning to her captain, the Queen's eyes narrowed suspiciously.

- What I have to do with it ?! - Luffy stared at her quite plausibly. - I did not expect this either!

- Don't play with words, - the girl pointed at him. - You may not have expected, but you certainly could have prevented him.

- You didn't pick up such nuances before, - Luffy pouted slightly.

- So why didn't you stop him?

- Nami,oh Lord, isn't it obvious? - uncorking a bottle of sake, reluctantly got to his feet Zoro.

- Ugh… because it's more interesting… you're right, you might as well not ask.

- Ah, - Luffy sighed sadly, brushing away a nonexistent tear from his eyelashes. - This is an indescribable feeling of a parent when he realizes that his beloved children, who, it would seem, only yesterday, were cute helpless toddlers, not only grew up, but have long been smoking, drinking, cursing and making children themselves.

-… Now only I have goosebumps running? - Zoro turned to the rest of the family.

- Hey! Y-you ...

- No, me too, - wrapping his arms around himself, lightly rubbed Johnny's shoulders.

- And me - Yosaku nodded.

- I propose to deprive him of meat for a couple of weeks, - Nami suggested.

- Tts! Ungrateful girl! Look at me, at such a pace, you will still get me to tell you a story about the little engine who could.

- NO!!! - Zoro, Yosaku and Johnny immediately jumped up in panic.

- No little engine who could! - Zoro said weightily. - Nami is our navigator, so she definitely doesn't need to know about it!

- Seriously, guys, what is a "little engine that could"? - biting his lip offendedly, - the first rows of spectators, among the local residents, were mowed down clean, - asked Nami.

- Not a "little engine who could", but the "little engine who could"! Feel the difference, Nami! - Zoro said a little annoyed, as if the girl had actually made some serious mistake.

- Yes, Nami, - Johnny nodded, - such important things should not be confused in any way.

- I-I s-seriously, even w-w-word ...

- Only not with the engine, only not with the one who could! - A slightly haunted expression appeared in Yosaku's eyes.

- Well, well, - Johnny said softly, patting Yosaka on the shoulder soothingly. - It will be for you, it will be. Everything is fine, this has long been in the past.

- I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!!! - in the end, Helmeppo's nerves simply could not stand the fact that he was completely ignored, and he finally broke down. But he stopped stuttering: - I WILL REALLY KILL HIM !!!

- Are you still here? - Luffy made a surprised face.

- FREE MY FATHER! RELEASE NOW, ELSE I WILL KILL HIM !!!

- Something I strongly doubt.

- I WILL KILL !!! I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!!!

- But this is already really interesting, - Zoro said, looking up from the bottle. - So I understand that you were counting on something like that, right? - The swordsman looked towards Luffy.

- I rather hoped… otherwise it would not be interesting at all.
