[It never fails, right? Make a plan like a New Year's Resolution, and it's doomed to fail. Not even a mountain of perfectly stacked rocks seem to be enough to change his luck on that. Smoker's voice is predictably growly as usual.]

It looks like the rest of the New Feathers are done trickling in and that often means a new draft is coming. They do not seem to prefer acquiring fighters, and as such, even people unaccustomed to fighting need to be prepared. I teach basic self-defense, jitte, and kickboxing outside of the barracks every day. Anyone interested in learning is welcome to join in, or just stop by for warmups.

On a lighter note, I feel like making some ice cream. Anyone want some? Just name the flavor you want. Go wild. Just not rum, some miscreant, probably a pirate, ran off with all of it recently.

And whoever switched my cigars with "pumpkin spice," the joke's on you, I actually like it. So there.

Why just assume it's a pirate? This place hardly even has pirates!

[ Like WOW, rude, odd growling man with flavored cigars...?

Moderately intimidating even when mostly unseen man who is skilled enough to teach self defense to other people... but who also makes ice cream, but...

Usopp just stops halfway between regretting and not regretting going on the pirate-defensive immediately. It's easier to be on the fence until he knows for sure. ]

You realize that defending pirates makes you incredibly suspicious.

[BUT it's too late, Smoker already recognizes your voice Long-Nose.]

[It's a mark of what Luceti and time and updates and shichibukai and Doflamingo have done to him that he just doesn't care.]

So let's get this out of the way. Was it you?

[Your reaction will decide your fate. Choose wisely.]

What would I even need all that rum for? I'd have to have a huge party for something like that, and I would have invited everybody to a huge party if I had one. [ The logic is obvious. To him. ]

Pirates are always having parties. [Drums his fingers, but dismisses it soon enough.]

Tch, I have an idea who did it.

Well, I'm sure that's true. Just one of those things that can't be helped. [ It's a tough life. ] So did they take it to light a bonfire or something? Or hey, maybe someone needed to send out a lot of messages in a bottle!
