Diary of Koby-Meppo

Diary of Coby-Meppo is the second mini-series created as a side story on the title pages of each One Piece chapter.

Short Summary
In Coby and Helmeppo's cover mini-arc, the two become unwillingly involved in an escape attempt by Morgan and the bravery shown by the two earns them the respect of their superiors, and the attention of Vice Admiral Garp, who decides after seeing their bravery to train them. Coby and Helmeppo serve under the Vice Admiral Garp, at Marine Headquarters, as well as training to become stronger under him.

The story can be set between the events of Romance Dawn Arc and the end of Jango's Dance Paradise.

Long Summary
Coby and Helmeppo join the Marines, but find themselves doing a large amount of janitor work. Coby takes all the chores they have to do in stride, but Helmeppo does not, angrily stabbing a doll resembling Luffy. However, Coby continues to do his best in order to become a full member of the Marines, even studying hard during night hours.

The two are later tasked with chore duty on a ship transferring the prisoner Morgan, much to their shock. As they clean the ship's weapons, Helmeppo is worried about his father possibly getting the death penalty. However, Helmeppo later notices something shocking: the ship of the famed Vice Admiral Garp is coming. Garp prepares to take Morgan over to his ship, and Coby has to restrain Helmeppo. However, Morgan catches Garp off-guard and slashes him; then he takes Helmeppo hostage. Morgan then escapes with Helmeppo on a small boat.
