[Video] And Now For Something Completely Different

[justicereigns]

[Despite Smoker's fairly infamous aversion to shirts and zipping up his jacket, he's now wearing a long brown trenchcoat and even a fedora. In fact those who know greatinspector might even think it's him, except that he's taller than the sudden hatless Inspector, and smoking two cigars. Speaking of the Inspector, he's standing right by Smoker, wearing the trademark justice jacket and jeans. They give a nod to each other and yell out their respective lines, issuing a challenge to the journal. (Smoker in grey, Inspector in Brown.)]

LUPIN! YOU'RE UNDER ARREST!

STRAW HAT, I'M PUTTING YOU AWAY!

[And they're off, going their separate ways to hunt down... each other's foes. Let confusion abound! Everyone feel free to gawk, jump in and/or try to stop them. Smoker won't be using his devil fruit (it's not sporting) but Smoker did give Zenigata the seastone cuffs to likewise, give Zenigata a reasonable edge on Luffy. -- Please don't try to take the cuffs, Smoker will intervene if things get too rough, but I'll try to give another chance for pirates to steal his cuffs in the future. -- Neither Luffy nor Lupin ICly know what's going down, but they will be chased with Zenigata trying to "arrest" Luffy and Smoker trying to "arrest" Lupin. Happy (very late) April Fool's everyone!]

[.......the fuuuuuuuuck.] Smoker, I see this and wonder if you really are smoking something.

[video]

[justicereigns]

I'm sorry you must be talking to that other guy. I hear he's a wizard at catching criminals.

[Trolololol.]

[video]

[hiken_ace]

Uh-huh. And what the hell makes you think some random cop can catch Luffy?

[Screw you, Smokey. >:T]

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

[He's in the bakery actually, quietly taking a break from the book he was reading (Gone with the Wind was abandoned in favor of the Maltese Falcon) when the video feed comes through. Lupin can't help but stare at the book and the images there in for a moment or two.]

...tell me this is a joke.

[No more coffee for that day. He knew that look and that tone--he was going to need to hide. Fast!]

[voice]

[justicereigns]

[Smoker is strolling along, trying to look less like a Vice Admiral, and more like a beat cop. Your call how much he's failing, since it hardly matters with Lupin. But he has the book open to listen for such things. After all, listening will give him background noise to help place Lupin. And how nice of him to go instantly for the bait. -- Although admittedly a quiet bakery isn't going to help Smoker much, so he's just going to try to keep Lupin talking.]

Lupin! Come out and show yourself!

[Yeah, he doesn't really know Zenigata's lines. A- for effort though.]

[voice]

[redjacketthief]

[Ha ha, what an idiot! What a dorky idiot! Lupin has to work to keep himself from laughing too hard, for more reasons than the obvious. Without his tools, he was at a disadvantage; still kraken-mauled, he was at a bigger one.]

Now, why would I do something as stupid as that, Captain? You think I've been in this game for twenty years for nothing?

[voice]

[fleurdesel]

...what. What on earth.

[voice]

[greatinspector]

Heh, hey Doctor. Never heard of a good old-fashioned problem switch?

[voice]

[justicereigns]

I'm going to capture Lupin for the last time.

[Get it? Because it's the only time. Sunglasses on; YEAAAAAAAAAAH!]

[Voice]

[selphie_t]

Well look at you all dressed up and handsome.

[Voice]

[greatinspector]

Who, me? Why, I'm always like this Miss!

[Voice]

[justicereigns]

I assume you mean the Vice Admiral? [By which means Zenigata.]

Because that is a very nice jacket. [All the arrogance ever. But Smoker hasn't decided what to make of all of the brown. It'd clash with his hair, except that he's hiding under a hat.]

[Voice Filtered: Unhackable]

[redjacketthief]

Hey. Selphie-chan. I heard you like boomsticks.

[Action]

[greatinspector]

Zenigata is roaming around town looking for Luffy...with all his anti-fire stuff, and those crazy handcuffs. Catch him anywhere! Threadjack away!]

[Action]

[gomugomunopwn]

[Yo Zenigata. Luffy is just on the roof of the grocery store just chillin' and eating meat all happily. Not a care in the world!]

[Not here]

[deathsdoctor]

[...

Drumming fingers on the tabletop. That's nice, you two. That's nice.

Just leave him out of it.



Try to, anyway.]

[justicereigns]

[No worries Law. While Smoker is stomping around in a trench coat, he won't bother Law so long as Law doesn't bother him. So unless Law wants to protect Lupin, it won't be a problem.]

[nothing]

[redjacketthief]

[If Law is willing to play, Lupin might have a few ideas...]

[Voice] 1/2

[gomugomunopwn]

[Wait... what? What. It's Luffy so of course he would be one of the ONLY ones who wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two.]

[Voice]

[gomugomunopwn]

AHAHAHAHAHA!

SMOKEY! What are you up to this time? And who is that guy in the brown coat, is he your new partner?

[Geez Smoker!Zenigata. You KNOW you're never gonna catch him.]

[ video ]

[etudes]

[ Blink.. blink...

Yes, Kotomi is not even speaking up. She has absolutely no clue what's going on, so the only reply is a video feed with one girl staring very, very blankly. ]

[ video ]

[greatinspector]

[Zenigata offers a salute to the...odd little girl]

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

Hey Kotomi-chan. [Salutes like Zenigata does.]

[action] for Zenigata

[hiken_ace]

[Oh come on. Smoker ratted out his weakness? Asshole. Well, fine, he'll just throw a few small fireballs to the fire extinguisher.

And avoid those cuffs like hell.]

[action] COME AT ME BRO!

[greatinspector]

[Zenigata stalks through the village, looking for either Luffy or Ace. The Justice Jacket flaps in the breeze, looking MIGHTY IMPRESSIVE!]
