One Piece Chapter 8.3, page 8-9: Nami Enters

Upon realizing Zoro's identity, the three pirates immediately back down, crying and rowing the boat for him. They plead, "WE DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE 'PIRATE-HUNTER ZORO'! WE'RE REALLY SORRY..." Zoro stands over them, commanding, "YOU THREE MADE ME LOSE TRACK OF MY FRIEND! PUT SOME BACK INTO IT! IF I DON'T FIND MY FRIEND, YOU THREE ARE IN FOR IT!!" He then asks, "OH YEA, WHY WERE THE THREE OF YOU DRIFTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN?" The lead pirate eagerly responds, "YES YES YES! GOOD QUESTION, YOU FINALLY ASKED! THAT GIRL!" The curly-haired pirate chimes in, "YEA! THAT BAD GIRL!" while the chubby pirate adds, "BUT, SHE'S REAL CUTE TOO!

The pirates explain their story in a flashback. They had just finished robbing a ship and were heading back with a chest full of treasure, laughing, "WAHA-HAHA-HAHA!! SO MUCH TREASURE!! WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT SUCH A SMALL SHIP WOULD CARRY SO MUCH LOOT! MAYBE BUGGY-SAMA WILL GREATLY REWARD US!" Suddenly, they spotted a small boat nearby. The lead pirate noticed, "HMM? WHAT'S THAT LITTLE BOAT DOING THERE? THERE'S SOMEONE FAINTED AT THE SIDE OF THAT BOAT!" It was a young orange-haired woman lying face down on the edge of the boat.
