Man, talk about a weird experiment last week. I didn't think something like that could happen! Guess I'm still learning stuff about this place even now
( Read more... )
Sorry, erm----isn't one of the other requirements of joining "allowing criminal-type pirates to sail away with your ship, whilst you stand on the shore like a fool?" Because I'd heard that, somewhere...
That's funny. I recall getting our boat back and then giving you a pretty sound thrashing. You weren't laughing when I boarded the ship and was glowing, were you?
I guess I gave you too much credit, thinking you'd be smart enough not to mess with a group of people with enough power to send you to Davey Jones' Locker with so little as the blink of an eye.
And I don't recall asking for your opinion. And if you touch my ship again, I won't be so nice next time.
[And then his voice turns snarkier.]
We have a naval tradition where I'm from. Someone gives you a problem, you give them a concrete vest and shove them overboard.
Send me if you like; I've a way of comin' back from that place, boy. And my opinion weren't for you---take care of your little ship, and she'll take care of you. If not? Well, I wouldn't want to ride her to the bottom of the lake, which is right where she's heading.
[And to the snark:] Aye, we do that too, but we call them "cannons" and aren't so uselessly ironical about it.
Trust me. If there's one thing the people where I'm from know how to do? It's make weapons. [Considering demons can make laser weapons and handguns that could probably blow up a city block if the user was strong enough...]
Besides, it's not really my style to needlessly kill. I may be a fighter, but I'm not a barbarian. You just keep out of trouble, and we'll be cool.
[...And for what it's worth, he doesn't dismiss Sparrow's advice. He is a genuine naval captain. Something Adell is not. Maybe it's time they give the Anna Aurion a serious overhaul and repair job. ...He's not much of a shipwright himself, but maybe he can ask Nami for some advice. One of the Straw Hats is bound to know what they're doing and can offer some helpful information.]

There's a life lesson in there, somewhere.
Not to mention your boat? In terrible condition, mate. I almost felt sorry for her.

We call it a life preserver.

...Maybe I should rephrase. Don't cause any trouble either.

I rather like my brain cells right where they are. Don't need to kill them off like some people do...

Besides, I got more important things to do than get wasted.
