One Piece Chapter 1.1, page 31-32: Romance Dawn (Version 1)

The village headman weeps, saying, "WE CAN'T... SACRIFICE OUR LIVES.... THESE AREN'T OPPONENTS WE CAN MATCH.". Shiruku closes her eyes in bitter defeat. Luffy, still tied up, looks at Gyari and remarks, "NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT, THAT'S A WEIRD BEARD.". Gyari is enraged, screaming, "DID YOU SAY SOMETHING!?". Shiruku and the headman gasp, "WHAT!?" and "EH". Gyari kicks Luffy hard, sending him sliding across the ground with a loud "UGAAH!!". Luffy sits up, completely unharmed, and says, "AHHH, THAT SURPRISED ME. Though it didn't hurt. Since I'm rubber.". Gyari veins pop in anger: "DAMN RUBBER BASTARD!!!"

Gyari's pirates load a large chest of stolen treasure onto their ship, laughing, "HA HA HA HA THIS IS A GOOD HAUL!! FOR SUCH A SMALL TOWN ANYWAY.". Gyari stands over the tied-up Luffy, grinning maliciously: "WHAT'S LEFT IS... THROWING THIS GUY INTO THE SEA!". Luffy deadpans, "PLEASE SAVE ME.", to which Gyari snaps, "AS IF, IDIOT!!!". From a distance, the villagers watch with guilt. One says, "WE WERE SURE HE WAS GYARI..." while another adds, "WE'VE DONE SOMETHING BAD TO HIM...!". The headman wonders, "BUT JUST WHO IS HE... HE WAS DEFINITELY THE FIRST PERSON TO COME OFF THAT SHIP.". Shiruku watches sadly, saying, "I DON'T KNOW EITHER BUT... HE'S NOT A BAD PERSON...!!"
