Episode 68

"Try Hard, Coby! Diary of Coby-Meppo's Marine Struggles" is the 68th episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
As Luffy and his crew are sailing in the Grand Line, Coby and Helmeppo are stuck doing odd-jobs for the Marines back in East Blue. Coby and Helmeppo work as cleaner at the Marine base. Coby insists Helmeppo to forget about his past and old grudges and work for his dream ahead. He reminds himself and Helmeppo of Luffy's words about dreams. Later Coby and Helmeppo are assigned to a ship that was transferring Morgan to the Marine Headquarters. Vice Admiral Garp arrives with his warship to take the charge of Morgan but he is attacked by Morgan. Morgan takes Helmeppo as a hostage and escapes. Coby follows Morgan saying Helmeppo is his friend. Helmeppo and Coby fight Morgan but he throws them both out in the sea and escapes. Later Garp decides to take Coby and Helmeppo along with him to the Marine Headquarter to train them.

Anime Notes

 * In the FUNimation dub of this episode, Garp is mistakenly referred to as an Admiral.
 * It is also said that Morgan is going to face a court-martial, rather than execution.
 * Nami names the people Luffy has brought down when conversing with Vivi, she mentions Arlong, Don Krieg, and Captain Kuro, however Nami was not present when Luffy defeated Krieg, thus she couldn't have known this (unless the crew told her).
 * In this episode Vice-admiral Garp is introduced. It would later be revealed that he is the grandfather of Monkey D. Luffy, and father of the Revolutionary leader Dragon.
