Luffy, Usopp, Sanji, Roronoa Zoro, Tony Tony Chopper ### Summary Page 6: Smoker continues his thought, "In any case, there's something suspicious going on in this country... Something big... I can feel it in my bones." He demands, "Yo granny, hit us up with some water! Give us 5 whole barrels of water!" Tashigi asks, "Then do you think there's some connection between Crocodile and that criminal organization?" Smoker replies, "Maybe..." Meanwhile, Luffy and Usopp are chugging water directly from large barrels. Luffy exclaims, "DAMN, THIS WATER'S GOOD!" and Usopp agrees, "YEAH, IT'S KILLER! We should quickly head back and give some to the rest of the guys." Smoker, still talking to Tashigi, says, "I still can't get my head around why the Princess of Alabasta is travelling with the Straw-Hat pirates... In times like these, all you can really do is sit back and wait for another lead..." Smoker glances over and suddenly recognizes Luffy and Usopp. He does a massive spit-take, spraying his drink everywhere in shock as Luffy and Usopp look back at him, equally surprised. Page 7: Outside the cafe, the rest of the crew is waiting. Sanji says, "Do you think it was alright trusting them with getting the water? It's just a little errand. I'm sure they can handle it." Zoro adds, "Don't worry. They might just come back with more than just water, if you know what I'm sayin'..." Chopper says, "I'm gonna go to a washroom." and walks away. Back inside the cafe, Smoker stands up abruptly, yelling, "ALERT THE MARINES! I'M CHASING AFTER THEM!" Tashigi responds, "YES, SIR!" The cafe owner asks, "Umm, how much do we owe you!?" Tashigi apologizes, "Well if you know those two who just ran out with the water, you'll have to pay for them too! S-sorry for the trouble..." Outside, Luffy and Usopp are sprinting away at top speed, each carrying a barrel of water. Usopp screams, "WHY THE HELL ARE THE MARINES HERE!?" Luffy replies, "HOW WOULD I KNOW!? JUST KEEP RUNNING!"
