The moon had risen and an immense party had started in Whiskey Peak.
The liquor was flowing from side to side for every person, making the party only move forward.
"And then, I told them in a very cool way, 'Hey, Sea Kings, get your fins off my friends!'" Usopp said in a clear state of drunkenness.
"Captain Usopp, you're so cool!" some women shouted because of how Usopp was.
"I must admit that our great escape from the Calm Belt made me tremble, but from excitement of course," Usopp said, making the men cheer him on.
Meanwhile, Zoro was in a drinking contest where he finished drinking a mug of beer while a man next to him swayed from side to side.
"I give up." The man fell asleep on the table.
"Wow! He's already beaten 10 people!" a man shouted upon seeing how many people lost.
"YAHOOO!!" Nami shouted happily after drinking alcohol as if it were nothing.
"Incredible, she has beaten 12!" another man shouted, impressed by the amount of alcohol consumed.
"She's really good!!" another shouted.
Luffy was devouring an immense amount of food and his appetite seemed to have no end.
"Bring more!" Luffy shouted, having numerous empty plates next to him.
"I give up," the chef said, falling unconscious.
"And their captain can eat for 20 people!"
"The chef has given up!"
Men shouted upon seeing what Luffy did.
"Oh my God! This man is incredible, he's seducing 20 women at once!" another man said, impressed seeing Sanji surrounded by women. "Who are these guys?!"
"Hahaha, this has undoubtedly been, Ahem! ma ma ma ♪ a pleasant evening! As long as there are more people having fun, it's much better. It's true," the strange man said, seeing how everyone was having fun. "It's much better this way."
In the middle of the celebration was Oliver with a mug of beer, taking a sip.
"I still don't know how they like this," Oliver said, putting the beer aside.
"And what are you doing?" a woman said to him with a beer in her hand.
"I'm just enjoying the moment," Oliver said, remembering that everyone in that town was a bounty hunter. 'And how do I get rid of them?'
"You're quite handsome," a woman said, touching his shoulder.
"And your leather jacket is fantastic."
Women surrounded Oliver, who could only pretend he was having fun until the party ended.
The Straw Hats kept having fun and enjoying the party.
"Hahaha, this is very fu..." The strange man made strange sounds again. "...Wow, what a good time we're having! As long as there are more people having fun, much better!"

Hours of the party passed until eventually each of the Straw Hats fell asleep from exhaustion.
"They are all unconscious. Sweet dreams, brave adventurers. Tonight the cactus rocks seem to dance so beautifully in the moonlight," the strange man said.
"How deep..." Miss Wednesday said.
"...Mr. 8." Mr. 9 called the strange man by his name.
"Oh, it's you two!" Mr. 8 said.
"How are you?" Mr. 9 asked.
"Everyone has fallen into the abyss," Mr. 8 said grimly.
"Oh my... Burp! They eat and drink too much! And I was only drinking tea. Was it really necessary to throw the whole party? Just for those 7 brats," a nun said.
"Miss Monday." Mr. 8 called the woman, who took off her nun outfit.
"We could have finished them off at the port, we're short on food, remember? And on top of that we didn't get the whale meat," Miss Monday said.
"What do you mean by that?!" Miss Wednesday asked indignantly.
"Yeah, we did what we could!" Mr. 9 shouted indignantly.
"Calm down, look at this. I took it upon myself to investigate those kids," Mr. 8 said while showing Luffy's wanted poster.
"W-what?! Thir-Thirty million berries!!" the 3 of them shouted in shock.
"Only a fool judges a pirate by his appearance, Miss bunbay, ma ma ma♪ Miss Monday," Mr. 8 said.
"Are they really...?" Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday asked.
"I apologize," Miss Monday apologized.
"It doesn't matter, let's take care of them, and then we'll tell the Boss. Quickly take all the treasure from the ship, and then tie them up! Yes, if we kill them they will give us 30% less, since the government wants them alive to execute them publicly," Mr. 8 said.
"I'm sorry, but if you don't mind, you can let them sleep a little longer. They are all tired from today's journey," Zoro said, sitting on top of the roof of a house, which surprised everyone.
"Mr. 8, Miss Monday!! One of them escaped while we weren't here!" one of the men shouted.
"He should be asleep!" Mr. 8 shouted.
"A true swordsman would never let the drink defeat him! And a bounty hunter's lair can be a dangerous place. They trick pirates into celebrating their passing through the Grand Line! It seems there are about a hundred bounty hunters. I will defeat you all, Baroque Works," Zoro said, shocking everyone to see that he knew about them.
Where the party had taken place, everyone was sleeping peacefully until some men started arriving to try and tie everyone up.
"These pirates sure are dumb," one man said.
"Well, we better take care of them as soon as possible," another one of the men said.
One of the men approached to tie up Oliver, but he grabbed him by the face.
"What the..."
Oliver electrocuted him and in a quick movement went for the other to start choking him and smash him against the ground.
"If there are stupid people, it's you," Oliver said to electrocute him as well. "Well, I think it's time to go help Zoro."

Oliver, upon seeing the reward, almost choked on his own saliva, which made him start coughing wildly.
Meanwhile, outside, Zoro was escaping from the bounty hunters and defeating others who were coming after him, but he easily overpowered them.
"Watch out for the hole."
Zoro made a hole in the ground, causing several of the bounty hunters who tried to attack him to fall into it.
At that moment, Miss Monday tried to attack him with a ladder which was dodged by Zoro, but she grabbed him by the neck so that with brass knuckles she could try to hit him in the face, but before that she was grabbed by the head to be thrown against a house.
"In trouble?" Oliver asked him, holding out his hand.
"I had it," Zoro said, getting up with Oliver's help.
"Another one woke up!" one of them yelled, annoyed.
Oliver took out his spear and went against several bounty hunters, defeating them all.
"H-how?!" Mr. 8 said, shocked by the defeat of the Bounty Hunters.
"But what happened?" Miss Monday said, but the only thing she saw was Oliver, who punched her, leaving her pinned to the ground.
"Will the others be okay?" Zoro asked.
"Of course. We just have to take care of these," Oliver said, ready to keep fighting.
"It's the Marines' fault, now I understand. They must have made a mistake with the posters," Mr. 8 said.
"One of these 2 has to be the one who is really worth 30 million or it's both of them," Mr. 9 said, sweating because of the situation.
"If so, and he is the captain. We must act accordingly. But what do we do with him?" Miss Wednesday said, looking at Oliver.
"The boss entrusted this city to us, we've lost a large part against these two. Now that's a problem of responsibility," Mr. 8 said, grabbing his saxophone. "Igarappa!!"
Mr. 8 blew his saxophone, from which multiple bullets were fired at both of them, and Oliver, putting his spear away, joined his two hands in a circle and quickly separated them, forming a cutting pressure that destroyed all the bullets.
"But what...?!" Mr. 8 said, shocked to see that his attack didn't work.
"Prepare yourselves."
Oliver lunged at Mr. 8 and with Electro grabbed him by the face, defeating him instantly.
"MR. 8!!" both bounty hunters shouted.
Both bounty hunters were shocked by Mr. 8's defeat, but they couldn't continue as Oliver propelled himself towards them to strike them, knocking them out immediately.
"Done!" Oliver said after defeating everyone.
"You didn't leave anything for me," Zoro said, sheathing his katana.
"I didn't leave anything for you? You were the one who defeated all the other bounty hunters," Oliver said.
