This week on our journey continues through the desert, where the Strawhats learn about a group masquerading as rebels in a nearby village. At Vivis request they test them. They are willing to lay down their lives for the people who trust them. All the while Ace ends up separated from the crew and has an encounter with a giant scorpion and sidestepping lizard named Giant Gecko. Only for all of that to turn out to be filler. And in what actually happens, we learn of Vivis past with Koza, the leader of the rebel army.  We’d like to thank 3:33 and AyoBudd for making our 4Kids parody opening.
