[Voice] Jitte, Self-Defense, and Executions

Hello New Feathers and old, I'm Cap-- Err Smoker. [Wow Proof he has done this message way too many times, he momentarily forgot his own rank. Woops. Not that it even matters here.]

I teach jitte, kickboxing, and basic self-defense outside the barracks, and it's open to anyone, no matter how inexperienced. As you may have heard by now, every so often the Malnosso take people at random for drafts, and while non-combatants have other opportunities to help support, any self defense can help.

For others, I wanted to ask about other world's or country's history regarding executions. Are there any that changed the world, or have other people here seen them personally?

Thanks.

[Smoker's been at the whole "failed attempt to organize this place" for two and half years. To the point that he still makes it a point to invite new people into self-defense lessons (no sense letting them just die in the draft when it doesn't take that much to be slightly more prepared) but it's gotten routine for him. How reminiscent of the days of Loguetown. And truly a mark of how boring Luceti can get that he would miss his marines daily calisthenics.]

[But yes, of all the enclosures, in all the world, why'd he have to walk into this one? And so forth.]

Executions still act as the catalyst.

[Hey, maybe he'll shake things up a bit and give you some entertainment, Smoker-san. ~~Unlikely, he just brings annoyance to those around him.~~]

Debatable. Not all executions are noteworthy. Nor they affect everyone the same way.

[.... Smoker doesn't entertain. Or at least, what he finds entertaining isn't really so possible here most of the time.]

Indeed. That's why I asked about the few that do. Hundreds of thousands don't have as big an impact on history, so what makes the few that do that much more exceptional?

[Dryly.]

A man who knows not when to stop laughing.

[Stare.]

That's it?

Do you need more?

Yes, quite frankly.

Dare I ask why.

Because I cannot believe that's all there was to Roger or Straw Hat.

[And he knows it's not the case with Portgas after all.]

[Yay for timeline shenanigans and misunderstandings. Also, congratulations on achieving a genuine note of surprise in his voice. Holy crap, Smoker, you're making him almost emote here.]

...Straw Hat got executed?

[This is news to him.]

No, Dragon saved him.

[Have fun with that confusion Mihawk.]

[Huh. Well, that kinda makes sense.]

That is not... entirely surprising.

It was before anyone knew about their connection, so it surprised me.

[Well, Garp and Sengoku knew, but they didn't exactly give him forewarning. Jerks.]

I see.

[False alarm, everyone can go home. No actual emoting will be done tonight, it seems.]

You sound bitter.

[Smug amusement is not an emotion. It's a lifestyle.]

[Bitter? Not the word he'd use. Chasing Straw Hat has secretly been the best thing that's happened to him.]

No, but it was extremely shocking at the time.

[Shocking. Get it? Lightning? Nah never mind, you had to be there.]

Perhaps.

[He was unruffled by the news, but then, he's unruffled by everything. It's kind of his shtick.]

Not that it matters other than Dragon rescuing him.

[Obviously not agreement with Akainu here.]

Not everyone would agree with you, I suspect.

Not everyone has as good a shot at arresting him either.

[Suck on that Akainu.]

But you do.

[He doesn't even need to add an undertone to make clear how much he doesn't believe that.]

I'll prove it.

[Can't fault his determination.]

[Point.]

Interesting goal you've set for yourself.

Even if it means learning how to take on all his gained allies to do it.

[Or you know, winding up as one of those allies. Whatever.]

[About that...]

You will certainly keep yourself busy in the future, then.

I know.

I prefer it that way.

[This is true. He didn't request G5 for the sake of his mental health after all.]
