Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, small birds, Pinky, three shipwreck survivors, three Buggy Pirates, Nami, Buggy, Buggy Pirate ### Summary Page 0: The title page displays the large text "CHAPTER 8: NAMI". Below it, an illustration shows Monkey D. Luffy sitting casually on the side of a small wooden boat. He is holding his straw hat with one hand and resting his foot on his knee. Behind him stands Roronoa Zoro, holding his sword upright. Several small, round, fluffy birds are perched in a row along the boat's railing, and one is perched on the hilt of Zoro's sword. The number "189" is visible in the bottom left corner. Page 1: A small boat drifts on the open ocean under a partly cloudy sky. From the boat, a voice complains, "I'M STARVING!" while another simply replies, "...". Inside the boat, Zoro sits across from Luffy. Zoro asks, "DON'T YOU THINK IT'S STRANGE THAT YOU CAN'T NAVIGATE?" Luffy, sitting comfortably, replies, "NO, DRIFTING HAS WORKED PRETTY WELL FOR ME." Zoro looks annoyed and points out, "WHAT ABOUT YOU? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE THE HOLY TERROR OF THE SEAS!" Luffy casually responds, "I DON'T RECALL EVER CALLING MYSELF THAT." Zoro explains his own situation: "I FOLLOWED A PIRATE I WAS AFTER OUT TO SEA. BUT I COULDN'T FIND MY WAY BACK TO MY VILLAGE." Page 2: Luffy laughs at Zoro's explanation, saying, "HMPH! SO YOU GOT LOST?" Zoro yells back angrily, his face exaggerated, "YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUT IT LIKE THAT!" Zoro calms down and continues, "SO I MADE THE BEST OF THINGS. I WENT AFTER PIRATES THAT WERE IN THE AREA. I HAD TO EARN MONEY SOMEHOW..." Zoro sits in the boat, looking down thoughtfully. "ANYWAY, WHAT KIND OF A PIRATE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO NAVIGATE A SHIP? IT'S RIDICULOUS! AT THIS RATE, WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT TO THE GRAND LINE. WE'VE GOT TO RECRUIT A NAVIGATOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE." Suddenly, Luffy flops onto his back on the floor of the boat with a "FLOP FLOP", complaining again, "I'M STARVING!" He then sits up, holding up his fingers as he lists off, "AND WE NEED A COOK, AND A MUSICIAN, AND--" Zoro interrupts him, yelling with sharp, angry teeth, "THOSE CAN WAIT!!" Page 3: High in the sky, a large bird flies overhead with a "FWAP FWAP". From the boat, a voice notices, "HEY... IT'S A BIRD..." and another adds, "IT LOOKS PRETTY BIG..." Zoro looks up with a determined expression and says, "LET'S EAT IT!!" Luffy looks surprised and asks, "HUH? HOW?" Luffy quickly comes up with a plan. He grabs the sides of the boat and stretches his arms far back, preparing an attack. "LEAVE IT TO ME! I'LL CATCH IT!!" he declares, winding up with a "VREEENG" sound and calling out, "GUM-GUM..." With a massive "BOING", Luffy launches himself high into the air like a slingshot, shouting "ROCKET!!!" as he flies straight up towards the large bird. Page 4: Zoro stands in the boat, shielding his eyes from the sun as he watches Luffy fly up, saying, "OKAY..." Suddenly, he gasps, "WHAT!?" High above, instead of catching the bird, Luffy has managed to get his head completely stuck inside the giant bird's beak with a "CHOMP". The bird continues to fly away, carrying a flailing Luffy with it. Luffy screams, "AAAAAH HELP!!" as he dangles from the bird's mouth. Zoro looks on in absolute shock and fury, yelling, "YOU IDIOT!!!" Zoro frantically grabs the oars and starts rowing the boat as fast as he can to chase the bird, the oars creaking loudly with "KREEK KREEK". He yells up at the sky, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? DARN YOU!" while Luffy's distant screams of "AAAAAH" echo from above. Page 5: Zoro continues to row furiously, the oars making loud "KREEK" sounds. Suddenly, he hears voices calling out from the water: "AHOY! IT'S A SHIP! HEY, WAIT!" Zoro looks confused, "HUH!?" and thinks to himself, "SHIPWRECK SURVIVORS? AT A TIME LIKE THIS?" In the water ahead, three men are thrashing about and waving their arms, yelling "HEY!!" with a "SPLASH SPLASH". Zoro, focused on his rowing, asks, "WHAT'D HE SAY!?" Without slowing down, Zoro shouts to the men in the water, "I CAN'T STOP! JUST GRAB ON AND CLIMB IN!" As the boat speeds past them, the three men manage to grab onto the side of the boat with a "WAP" and a large "SPLASH", grunting "UMF!" and "WHOA!" as they are pulled along. Page 6: Zoro is sitting in the small boat, holding his sword, as the three shipwreck survivors climb aboard, panting heavily. Zoro smiles and says, "YOU MADE IT! GOOD!" One of the exhausted men yells, "YOU WOULD HAVE LEFT US TO DIE!!" with a "KREEK KREEK" sound from the boat. The men continue to pant, "HUF HUF...", and one demands, "WHAT KIND OF PERSON ARE YOU!!" Suddenly, the three men stand up, looking menacing. The middle one draws a sword with a "FWIP" sound and declares, "WE'RE PIRATES OF BUGGY THE CLOWN!" The man on the right adds, "HEY! STOP THE SHIP!" Zoro simply looks back at them with an unbothered, slightly confused expression and says, "HUH!?" Page 7: The scene shifts to the three pirate...
