## One Piece Chapter 3, pages 12-13: CHAPTER 3: ENTER ZOLO-PIRATE HUNTER - Chapter: 3 - Pages: 12-13 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Koby, Rika, Helmeppo, Marine ### Summary Page 12: Helmeppo snatches a rice ball from the girl, saying, "Little girl... Did you bring those rice balls for me? How thoughtful." The girl protests, "Hey! Give it back!" Helmeppo takes a bite and immediately spits it out, "Blech! Disgusting! It's sweet! There's sugar on it! Rice balls are supposed to be seasoned with salt! Not sugar!!" The girl explains, "B-but I like sweets, so I figured sugar would be better!" Helmeppo throws the rice balls on the ground and stomps on them, yelling, "These are completely inedible!!" The girl cries, "Stop! Please! You're ruining them!" Koby watches in horror, "How evil... That little girl worked really hard to make those rice balls." Helmeppo grinds the food into the dirt with his shoe, laughing cruelly, "Don't worry! I'm sure the ants find them delicious! Ha ha! Ha ha ha! Oh no! Ha ha!" Page 13: The little girl cries, "Why!!! I worked so hard to make them!!" Helmeppo complains, "Oh, stop that crying! That's why I hate kids!" He points to a sign next to Zoro, "It's your own fault! Can't you read this sign? It says, 'Anyone aiding this prisoner shall be found guilty of the crimes he has committed. -Captain Morgan'." He leans in close to the crying girl, "I'm sure you've heard how scary my father can be! If you were an adult, you would be put to death!" He then orders a Marine, "You there! Throw that brat over the fence!!" The Marine hesitates, "B-but..." Helmeppo yells, "I'm ordering you to throw that little brat over the fence! Are you going to disobey a direct order!? I'll tell daddy on you!" The terrified Marine complies, "Y-yes sir... right away!!"
