The moon glowed brightly as Satori, Zoro, Nami, and Luffy were on the boat, waiting until they stopped where they needed to be. As soon as the four of them are far away from the island, Zoro drags Satori into a private section of the boat so he can ask her what happened after the pirates destroyed the island she once lived on. She refused to answer his question because she didn't want to tell him what happened.
Zoro scanned her face for some answers. Now that he can look at her properly she looks different from her younger self. Satori changed from years ago. She carries much more pain and baggage than before. His eyes land on a scar that is on the right side of her neck and goes down to her back. Zoro was about to brush the hair off her shoulders so he could know more but Satori caught his arm. The two of them feel something when their skin makes contact. "Don't." She pleads to him. Her green eyes hold fear in them. He was about to ask what happened but he was beaten by Nami finally cracking the safe open.
The two of them walk to where Nami and Luffy are. She opened the canister lid that contained the map. Zoro lifted the handle of the safe to see what was inside. He was disappointed to not see what he expected. "That's it? Isn't there supposed to be gold inside a safe?" He questioned. "Or jewels?" Satori and Nami looked at him like he was insane thinking the map wasn't just useless. She tells him that it's more valuable than gold. It's knowledge because it is the map to the Grand Line.
"The Grand Line. Ah." Luffy exclaims. His expression turns into confusion since he doesn't know where the Grand Line is and he wants to go there. "You're going to the Grand Line but you don't know where it is?" Nami questions. Luffy says that he needs a navigator on my crew since Nami is one. She leads the three of them inside a room on the boat. She stood in front of a drawing board so she could explain simple navigation to them
"The seas are divided into four quadrants. East Blue, North Blue, West, South." Nami drew a circle with chalk, giving a visual description for the trio. She drew two squiggly lines that depict the strip of land that circles the globe is called the red line. She drew another line showing the others it is the Grand Line. "A treacherous stretch of ocean with bigger islands, bigger cities, bigger pirates. Flush with riches and ripe for the picking." She finishes her explanation.
Luffy tells them that is where they're gonna find the One Piece. In a raspy voice (which Satori found hot) Zoro informs the three that he's taken out many pirates looking for it. "What is it? Like, a big diamond or something?" He asks. Luffy tells him that it's Gold Roger's treasure and it's somewhere in the Grand Line all in one piece. Satori adds that no one knows what the treasure is at all, not that she cares.
"It's a myth," Nami exclaims. "The reason no one's found it in twenty-two years is that it doesn't exist." That doesn't dim Luffy's mood. He can't wait to see the look on her face when they find it. Out of nowhere, an explosion goes off, alerting the four of them. "Is that the Marines?" Zoro keeps Satori close to him, not wanting to lose her again. Nami asks how they found them.
All of them step outside of the room to see the sky above them is covered in red smoke. It's like there is a dome of smoke surrounding them. Another explosion goes off. "This smoke smells weird," Luffy says. Nami and Satori do the same a few seconds later Zoro follows.

The bright light of the sun peeks through the crate that holds Satori, Zoro, Nami, and Luffy. The four of them are now trapped in the wooden crate with no way to escape. Slowly each of them regains consciousness. Satori felt Zoro's breath on her neck. She quickly scrambled off him. A small blush grows on her face at the position she was just in. She shook him awake. Zoro lifts his head. He looks around to where they are now. He looks to his right side to notice his swords are gone and announces it to the rest. Satori checked where she kept her ring daggers hidden but they were gone. A small groan of disappointment left her lips "And my rucksack, ugh, with all my navigation gear."
The three of them aren't doing well with their things gone. Luffy touches the top of his head. A sigh of relief escaped his lips when he still felt his straw hat on his head. The one thing that was important to him was still there. Nami realized that they lost the map. "No." Luffy quickly got up, his head hitting the top of the crate. "No, we didn't. It's in a safe place." He whispers then pats his stomach. The map to the Grand Line is inside of him. Nami and Satori are now disgusted.
Zoro began hitting the crate repeatedly. The two girls tell him to stop it. He is gonna alert someone that he is trying to get out. "What? I'm trying to find a way out." His tone was filled with annoyance and frustration that they had been captured. They've been captured so they need a plan.
"I don't need a plan. I just need to beat the hell out of every Marine I see." Satori crosses her arms. Of course, Zoro doesn't think he needs one. His stubbornness is too strong. Luffy tells all of them to relax and that they're fine. "We're not fine, Luffy." She said. Nami adds that the Marines will throw them in jail if they're lucky or execute them if they aren't. Luffy says that whoever captured them isn't Marines at all. "Before I got knocked out, I saw a Jolly Roger. We've been captured by pirates."
Satori clenched both of her fists. Now that she knows that they have been captured by pirates her fear grows more. "That's much better news." Nami sarcastically said.
"No, he's right," Zoro spoke. His eyes have a dangerous glint. "Marines have training. Pirates are easier to kill," Luffy says that Shanks used to say not every situation can be solved with violence. Zoro asks who Shanks is. Memories of her and Shanks flood back to her brain. She misses him. She misses her childhood. She misses her parents. She misses the innocence she used to have.
Luffy says that they don't need to fight. He could just talk to them since he is a pirate as well. "Not gonna end well," Satori mumbles under her breath. Nami says it won't work. He asks why not and she replies by telling him that he isn't a pirate. While the two of them are having a conversation Zoro tells Satori to use one of the elements she has control over to break them out. "That's not gonna work, Zoro."
The top of the crate was lifted allowing them to look at their surroundings. The sound of circus music fills their ears. Zoro grabs Satori's hand making sure nothing will happen to her. The sides of the crate are removed giving the four of them full access to everything that is happening. In the crowd, the audience is clapping not from joy but fear. Tears were spilling out of their eyes from the absolute anxiety they had. Their legs are chains keeping them in the tent, preventing them from escaping.
Over the loud clapping from the audience, a male shout was heard for everyone. He came from the entrance of the tent. "No, no, no. No!"
