Short Summary
After finding out that his brother's devil fruit is offered as a prize in the colosseum, Luffy made it his mission to win the tournament and claim the fruit to prevent anyone from taking it. Meanwhile, Zoro is still chasing the thief that took his sword and Sanji catches up to him only to get distracted by a dancer named Violet who asked him to hide her from the police because she stabbed her boyfriend who cheated on her. Sanji, being lovestruck said its alright since he never says no to a crying woman. Relived, Violet asked Sanji to protect her until she gets to the next town because there is a man she wants him to kill. Luffy and Franky reached the colosseum where upon Franky's advice he entered with a fake name "Lucy" so that no one can recognise him. In the waiting room, some of the large contestants looked at Lucy with amusement while one of them takes it as an insult and proceeds to attack Lucy, but Lucy answered back by giving him a brutal shoulder flip, breaking the floor. The other contestants were rendered speechless as Lucy greeted them.
