    The scene transitions to a small tavern in the village with a sign that reads "MESHI". Inside, Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and Usopp sit around a table covered in empty plates. Luffy is happily stuffing his face with a giant piece of meat. Usopp asks, "SO, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR COMPANIONS AND A BIG SHIP?" Luffy mumbles around his food, "YUP!" Usopp comments, "OH! SOUNDS LIKE A BIG ADVENTURE!" He then explains, "THERE'S ONLY ONE PLACE WHERE YOU CAN FIND THE STUFF YOU WANT IN THIS VILLAGE... ALTHOUGH IT'S NOT A VERY BIG SHIP, BUT IT'S NOT THAT SMALL EITHER." Nami asks, "WHERE?" Usopp points and says, "THERE'S A MANSION NOT FAR FROM THIS VILLAGE THAT BELONGS TO A WEALTHY FAMILY. THE SHIP BELONGS TO THE MANSION'S OWNER.

    Usopp continues describing the mansion's owner with a somber expression. "ALTHOUGH WE SAY THAT SHE IS THE OWNER... SHE IS A PITIFUL YOUNG GIRL... A WEAK AND SICK GIRL THAT ALWAYS LIES ON THE BED..." Nami asks, "EH? THEN HOW COME SHE'S THE OWNER OF THE MANSION?" Usopp explains, "I THINK IT HAPPENED AROUND A YEAR AGO... THAT GIRL'S PARENTS DIED OF SICKNESS, LEAVING HER A LARGE INHERITANCE, A MANSION, AND OVER TEN SERVANTS..." Meanwhile, Luffy completely ignores the sad story, shouting to the tavern keeper, "OBASAN!! ANOTHER PLATE OF MEAT!! I WANT SOME MORE SAKE..." which makes Usopp yell in frustration, "ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME!!?
