Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Johnny, Yosaku ### Summary Page 0: The title page shows the chapter heading "CHAPTER 42" and the title "YOSAKU AND JOHNNY". Below is a cover story illustration titled "ADVENTURES OF THE BUGGY CREW VOL.6 'JOURNEY THROUGH THE SKY, PART 2'". The image features a large, strange bird-like creature sitting at a checkered picnic blanket with a fork and knife in its hands. Two small chicks sit opposite the creature. Above the creature's head are two circular symbols. One is Buggy's face looking shocked with the text "BOOOOOPS!". The other is a skull and crossbones made of a fork and knife, looking sick, with the text "TASTES BAD!!". Page 1: The Going Merry sails peacefully on the open ocean under a cloudy sky. On the deck, Luffy proudly holds up a large black cloth that he has painted a pirate flag on. The drawing is incredibly crude and messy, depicting a lopsided skull wearing a straw hat with uneven crossbones behind it. Luffy laughs uproariously, "DON", "Ahhhahahahahaha!" He grins widely and declares, "ALRIGHT! OUR PIRATE FLAG IS DONE!" A bucket of white paint and a brush sit on the deck near his feet. Page 2: Zoro, Nami, and Usopp stand on the deck, staring in stunned silence at Luffy's terrible flag drawing. Usopp stammers, "O-OUR.... SYMBOL..." Luffy laughs proudly, "HAHAHA! I PUT A LOT OF THOUGHT IN TO MAKING OUR SYMBOL!" Zoro crosses his arms, looking unimpressed, "A PIRATE'S FLAG SHOULD BE A SYMBOL OF DEATH, BUT THIS FLAG IS... WELL... I GUESS IT'S QUITE TERRIFYING IN A SENSE." Nami holds her chin thoughtfully, "NO... THIS COULD BE SOME SORT OF ABSTRACT ART..." Usopp looks horrified, his jaw dropping, "CALLING HIM ARTISTICALLY CHALLENGED WOULD BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT..." Luffy holds the flag up higher, grinning, "WHADDYA THINK? HEE HEE!" Usopp angrily points at Luffy, yelling, "YOU COMPLETELY CHANGED THE SYMBOL!" Usopp then steps forward confidently, "LEAVE THE DRAWING TO ME! YOU'RE BEYOND TERRIBLE!" Page 3: Usopp has painted a new flag, laying it out on the deck next to Luffy's crude version. Usopp's flag is a perfect, professional-looking Jolly Roger with a skull wearing a straw hat and crossbones. Usopp points out, "IT DOESN'T LOOK EVEN REMOTELY LIKE THE OTHER ONE." Luffy sits nearby, impressed, "THAT'S GREAT! DRAW ONE ON OUR SAIL TOO LATER!" Nami smiles, "WOW, THAT'S PERFECT!" Usopp holds a paintbrush, looking incredibly smug, "I'M QUITE THE MASTER ARTIST, YOU KNOW. YEAH WELL, I'VE HONED MY ARTISTIC TALENTS BY DRAWING ON THE WALLS OF PEOPLE'S HOMES FOR YEARS." The scene shifts to a wide shot of the Going Merry sailing on the sea. The new Jolly Roger is flying from the top mast, and a massive version of it is painted on the main sail. Usopp declares, "ALRIGHT, IT'S DONE! WITH THIS, OUR PIRATE SHIP 'GOING MERRY' IS READY FOR ACTION!" Page 4: Usopp and Luffy are lying exhausted on the deck, panting. Usopp sighs, "AHH, I'M TIRED!" Zoro is sleeping soundly, leaning against the mast. Later, Usopp is standing by one of the ship's cannons, looking determined. Luffy walks up behind him, asking, "HEY, WHAT'RE YOU DOING ALL OF A SUDDEN!?" Usopp replies, "I'M TESTING OUT OUR CANNON! IT'D BE A WASTE NOT TO MAKE GOOD USE OF IT. BUT I CAN'T GET IT TO FIRE WELL..." Usopp pushes Luffy aside, "STAND ASIDE, MY AMATEUR FRIEND!" Usopp aims the cannon carefully, "JUDGING THE DISTANCE BETWEEN HERE AND THE TARGET... THIS SHOULD ABOUT DO IT..." Luffy points out to the sea, "TRY AIMING FOR THAT ROCK!" Usopp agrees, "OK!" Page 5: The cannon fires with a massive "BOOM!" The cannonball flies across the water and scores a direct hit on the large rock formation Luffy pointed out, blowing the top of it to pieces in a huge explosion. Usopp stands proudly by the smoking cannon, laughing with his hands on his hips, "I MEAN, OF COURSE I DID! FEEL FREE TO BOW DOWN BEFORE ME AND ADDRESS ME AS CAPTAIN! I'M AN EXPERT WHEN IT COMES TO ALL THINGS AIMING!" Luffy jumps up and down in amazement, "HOLY CRAP! YOU HIT IT ON YOUR FIRST SHOT! YOU'RE RIGHT, I DID!!!" Luffy smiles widely and declares, "I'VE DECIDED! YOU CAN BE OUR SNIPER!" Page 6: Inside the ship's kitchen and dining area, the crew is gathered around the table. Luffy sits on a barrel, stating, "I'LL TAKE CHARGE AS THE SHIP'S CAPTAIN." Usopp, sitting at the table, replies, "ALRIGHT, FINE. BUT IF YOU EVER CHICKEN OUT FROM YOUR DUTIES, ALRIGHT, I GUESS I CAN SETTLE FOR THAT FOR THE TIME BEING." Nami, resting her head on her hand, says, "THERE'S STILL ONE CRUCIAL POSITION OF A PIRATE CREW WE NEED TO FILL BEFORE ENTERING GRAND LINE." Luffy raises a finger, "HEY, I JUST HAD AN IDEA!" Nami continues, "THAT'S RIGHT, WE DO HAVE THIS FANTASTIC KITCHEN AFTER ALL. OF COURSE, I COULD DO IT AS LONG AS I GET PAID." Zoro, sitting nearby, adds, "AN INDISPENSABLE CREW MEMBER FOR LONG VOYAGES." Luffy grins, "YOU THINK SO TOO, RIGHT? YUP, W...
