## One Piece Chapter 3, pages 17-18: CHAPTER 3: ENTER ZOLO-PIRATE HUNTER - Chapter: 3 - Pages: 17-18 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Koby, Rika ### Summary Page 17: Luffy picks up the smashed rice ball, saying, "You're not going to eat it!? It's more of a dirt ball than a rice ball now... I know you're hungry, but this--" Zoro yells, "Shut up! Just shut up and feed it to me! And don't miss one grain of rice!" Luffy feeds it to him, and Zoro chews the dirt-covered food, coughing violently, "Hak koff koff!!!" Luffy says, "I told you. It was mostly dirt. You wanna kill yourself?" Zoro, still coughing, says, "Koff... T-tell the kid... Tell her I said it was delicious. Tell her I ate it all." Luffy smiles broadly and laughs, "Ha ha ha!" Page 18: Back in town, Luffy tells the little girl, "Yeah! He ate it all up!" She beams, "Really!? I'm so glad!" Koby wonders, "Could that guy really be as bad as everyone says? He's not a bad guy!" The girl explains, "Everybody in town is afraid of him... But he hasn't done anything wrong! He got thrown into prison 'cause of me. Captain Morgan's son had a bunch of mean dogs! They attacked me... Roronoa Zolo saved me! Besides, those dogs were running loose and scaring everybody in town!" Luffy realizes, "That's why Zolo is in prison... Because he hurt that guy's dog to save you?" The girl nods, "Yes!" Koby adds, "That makes sense! Zolo's really scary, but he only goes after people with a price on their heads. And he wouldn't get thrown into prison for that!"
