Long Summary
Luffy, Zoro, and Nami return to their ship. Usopp and Chopper are shocked when they see their wounds, and Sanji is only worried about Nami. Chopper yells "DOCTERRR!!!" and Usopp slaps him, pointing out that he is the docter.

After Chopper heals the 2 pirates, Usopp tries to ask what happened, but they say there is nothing to worry about since it is all over anyway. Nami is really mad about the fact that Luffy and Zoro didn't fight back. Usopp wonders why the unhurt Nami is so mad. Chopper happily asks if they got any information on the sky island, and Nami sways and looks at Chopper with a furious look which scares him. Nami talks about how everyone laughed when she said the word "sky island" and hollers if she said anything THAT funny. At this, Usopp uses his ketchup star to pretend to be dead, and Chopper eats a precious Rumble Ball to get in his guard point.

Meanwhile at the Jaya mouse bay, a pirate captain uses his "search sonar" to find a huge school of fish for dinner. The search sonar also picks up the tracks of a ship and one of his servants report this. The captain orders hif to tell where they are, and when he does, the captain yells at him to tell if it is in sight already. The ship is the Straw Hats' ship, and Luffy, Sanji, and Ussop talk about how a weird thing showed up, and that it is not Masira. Usopp says that he really did see the "salvage guys" but Luffy doesn't seem to care. The captain comes near and starts talking to Luffy, and it is revealed that his name is Shoujou. Luffy comments about his unique facial features and asks what species he is. Shoujou replies "I'm a homo sapien sapiens you dumbass". Shoujou's servants warn them to not make their big boss mad, but Shoujou says he doesn't really mind, and adds that he is on the same level as Crocodile and people are recruiting him into the Shichibukai. (which is a lie) Luffy just simply says "oh, so you wanna be a warlord huh?" which makes Shoujou somewhat mad. He states that he is amazing since he never cut his hair in 25 years. Luffy says that is just stupid, and Shoujou warns them about his strength. Luffy asks him if they could pass through, but he says that the area is his territory and if they want to pass, they have to pay. The Straw Hats talk about how the 'territory' part is just like Masira, and when Shoujou asks what they know about him, Luffy stated that they kicked him away. This enrages Shoujou who says he will get revenge for his brother, even though Luffy reminds him Masira isn't dead. Shoujou uses his "Havoc Sonar", which destroyes his own ship and crew. Sanji asks what the heck they are doing, and Luffy says the power is pretty awsome. Nami tells them to move on and the others are relived that demon Nami is gone. Usopp then realizes that they are also getting damage from the attack and they start panicking.

Back at Mocktown, people talk about a strong,beautiful woman with strange powers who beat up an intire crowd in a bar, who asked about a man named Cricket. They talked about how she was probably after the gold that he found recently. Bellamy, who is sitting nearby asks what they meant by 'gold'. The chapter ends with Bellamy asking them to tell him more about it.
