Screen 1 — Landing on Amazon Lily
Wind whistles.
Waves crash.
Everything goes white.
Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus fly through the sky for what feels like forever after Kuma's final strike.
---
Crash Landing
BOOM.
Luffy slams into the sand of a strange island, face buried, hat rolling beside him.
Luffy:
"Ugh… where… am I…?"
He lifts his head — eyes widening.
Luffy:
"Sans!? Papyrus!?"
Just a few meters away, two skeletons are half-buried in the sand — heads sticking out like weird fossils.
Sans:
"…ow."
Papyrus pops upright like a spring.
Papyrus:
"WE SURVIVED THE SKY!!
OUR BONES ARE UNBREAKABLE!"
Luffy pulls them out of the sand, relieved.
Luffy:
"I thought Kuma separated the whole crew…
but we landed together!! That's good!"
Sans dusts himself off.
Sans:
"yeah… lucky us.
and the big guy didn't want us dead anyway."
Papyrus looks around.
Papyrus:
"BUT WHERE ARE WE?! THIS PLACE LOOKS… TROPICAL AND DANGEROUS!"
---
Sea Kings Surround Them
A massive shadow moves under the water.
Then another. And another.
Dozens of Sea Kings circle the coastline, their jaws rising above the surface.
Luffy:
"Calm Belt?? Seriously!?"
Sans squints at a Sea King the size of a mountain.
Sans:
"…these guys have big appetites."
Papyrus screams dramatically.
Papyrus:
"THEY WANT TO EAT OUR BONES!!
AND LUFFY TOO!!"
Luffy grabs his hat and runs.
Luffy:
"NO TIME TO THINK! RUN!!"
The trio bolts inland as the Sea Kings crash against the shore, roaring.
---
Arrival at Amazon Lily
The jungle opens into a strange, untouched land.
Signs everywhere:
no men, no outsider traces, no ships.
Papyrus reads a sign.
Papyrus:
"WELCOME TO—
AMAZON LILY??
ONLY WOMEN LIVE HERE??"
Luffy freezes.
Luffy:
"…Oh.
This is gonna be a problem."
Sans sighs.
Sans:
"great.
a whole island that hates men…
and we're 1 guy and 2 skeletons."
Papyrus raises a hand.
Papyrus:
"DO SKELETONS COUNT AS MEN?!"
Sans:
"depends how much trouble we cause."
They hear voices approaching — women warriors.
Luffy whispers:
Luffy:
"Guys… hide!!"
Sans:
"good idea.
these folks don't play around."
The Skeleton Trio and Luffy duck behind a giant plant as the Amazon Lily warriors close in.
Screen 2 — First Contact on Amazon Lily
Luffy's stomach growls loud enough to shake the trees.
Luffy:
"I'm starving… I'm gonna eat whatever I find!"
He reaches for a strange mushroom growing on a fallen log.
Sans grabs his wrist instantly.
Sans:
"don't. that thing's poison.
you'll start hallucinating yourself as a Sea King."
Luffy freezes.
Luffy:
"…Okay. Not eating that."
Papyrus gasps dramatically.
Papyrus:
"THANK YOU, SANS! WE DON'T NEED A HALLUCINATING LUFFY RIGHT NOW!"
Sans sighs.
Sans:
"pretty sure mushrooms aren't the only danger here.
this island… it's all women, remember?"
Luffy tilts his head.
Luffy:
"Right… so they've never seen guys before?
Then what are we supposed to do?"
Sans shrugs.
Sans:
"act normal. which is hard for you."
Papyrus hisses loudly:
Papyrus:
"SANS! WE MUST BE POLITE SKELETONS!"
Before they can argue, a spear flies past them and sticks into a tree.
Luffy jumps.
Luffy:
"WHOAA! Who threw that!?"
Three women step out of the bushes wearing ornate Kuja armor — warriors of Amazon Lily.
One of them steps forward, bow drawn, eyes sharp but curious.
Marguerite.
Marguerite:
"…A man?
And… two skeletons??"
Papyrus waves energetically.
Papyrus:
"HELLO, AMAZONS! WE COME IN PEACE AND BONE-BASED HOSPITALITY!"
Sans lifts a hand lazily.
Sans:
"hey."
Luffy smiles wide.
Luffy:
"I'm Luffy! We crash-landed here! We're hungry!"
Marguerite lowers her bow slightly.
Marguerite:
"You're strange… but you don't feel like enemies."
Papyrus beams.
Papyrus:
"SEE!? OUR FRIENDLINESS IS WORKING!"
Sans points to the mushrooms.
Sans:
"can you guys maybe guide us to food that won't kill my captain?"
Marguerite nods, a bit amused despite herself.
Marguerite:
"…Fine. Follow me.
But be careful — this island does not welcome men."
Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus follow her deep into the amazonic forest, each step pulling them further
Screen 3 — Capture of Luffy and the Skeleton Trio
Marguerite guides Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus carefully through the jungle, bringing them food and water. For a moment, it feels peaceful.
Papyrus:
"WOW! WHAT A KIND AMAZON! PERHAPS THIS IS A FRIENDSHIP QUEST!"
Sans, chewing calmly:
"don't get too comfy. this island isn't exactly a tourist spot."
Luffy grins.
"At least we got food! Thanks, Marguerite!"
Marguerite blushes slightly.
"You're welcome… but don't misunderstand. Men aren't allowed here."
Before Luffy can ask anything else—
A loud, sharp voice echoes from above.
???:
"MARGUERITE! WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THEM!?"
The trio looks up.
An elderly woman jumps down from a high ledge with surprising agility.
Wrinkled skin, long hair, and eyes full of worry.
Elder Nyon — Gloriosa.
Gloriosa points her staff at Luffy and the Skeleton Trio.
Gloriosa:
"MEN on Amazon Lily?!
And— skeletons too!?"
Papyrus gasps.
Papyrus:
"WE ARE FRIENDLY SKELETONS!
AMBASSADORS OF PEACE!"
Gloriosa:
"No excuses!
Men bring nothing but trouble!"
She signals the nearby guards.
Gloriosa:
"Capture them before the Empress finds out!"
Kuja warriors emerge from the trees, bows ready.
Marguerite steps between them and the captured trio.
Marguerite:
"Wait! They're not dangerous! I chose to help them!"
Gloriosa slams her staff against the ground.
Gloriosa:
"You had no right to make that choice.
Our laws are strict.
Men are forbidden — and skeletons even more suspicious!"
Papyrus flails.
Papyrus:
"HOW ARE WE SUSPICIOUS!?
WE HAVE AMAZING SMILES!"
Sans shrugs.
"it's a bone thing, i guess."
Luffy tries to resist, but the warriors surround him instantly.
Luffy:
"Hey! Stop! We're not here to hurt anyone!"
Marguerite's voice shakes.
Marguerite:
"I'm sorry… I can't protect you anymore."
Sans puts a hand on her shoulder.
Sans:
"it's fine.
you did more than enough.
we'll figure it out."
Papyrus nods.
"YES! WE SHALL FACE THIS TRIAL WITH HONOR!"
The Kuja warriors bind the trio and lift them onto a transport platform.
Gloriosa sighs heavily.
Gloriosa:
"Take them to the palace.
The Empress will decide their fate."
Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus are carried toward the heart of Amazon Lily — unaware that Boa Hancock herself awaits.
5 — Trust Earned on Amazon Lily
Hancock sits on her throne, cold and unmoved.
Boa Hancock:
"Execute the man… and the skeletons."
Kuja warriors pull out their weapons.
Papyrus screams and hides behind Sans.
Papyrus:
"WE ARE INNOCENT BONES! PLEASE DO NOT EXECUTE US!"
Sans sighs.
Sans:
"this island really hates visitors."
Luffy doesn't panic.
He just shouts:
Luffy:
" I'm hungry! Can we eat first!?"
The entire palace goes silent.
Hancock blinks, stunned.
No trembling.
No fear.
No obsession.
Just blunt honesty.
Boa Hancock:
"…He isn't affected by my charm?"
Even Sans mutters quietly:
Sans:
"yeah, he's immune to a lot of things…
including thinking."
---
Luffy Saves Marguerite
Marguerite is dragged forward for punishment because she helped Luffy.
Warrior:
"She must be punished for helping outsiders!"
Luffy steps between them.
Luffy:
"Stop! She helped me. If you punish her, then punish me too."
The crowd gasps.
Sans folds his arms.
Sans:
"classic luffy. always protecting people."
Papyrus nods proudly.
Papyrus:
"HE HAS A VERY HEROIC SOUL!"
Marguerite is spared because of Luffy's honesty and courage.
---
The Sister Duel
To "solve" the problem properly, Hancock orders a public match:
Luffy
Sans
Papyrus
vs.
Sandersonia
Marigold
Her two giant serpent-warrior sisters.
The fight explodes across the arena:
Sandersonia spits venom.
Marigold breathes fire.
Luffy dodges.
Papyrus throws bone attacks everywhere.
Sans teleports and distracts them.
But during the chaos, the sisters nearly expose the forbidden brand on their backs — the same one Hancock hides.
If the audience sees it, the sisters would face humiliation and danger.
Luffy notices first.
Luffy:
"Turn around!! Your backs are showing!!"
Sans teleports behind them and creates a small bone wall as cover.
Sans:
"relax. we got you."
Papyrus jumps in front of the crowd dramatically.
Papyrus:
"NO LOOKING!! THIS IS A PRIVACY ALERT!!"
The sisters freeze — surprised the trio protected them.
The entire arena goes quiet.
---
A Shift in the Island
Hancock watches from above.
She expected cruelty.
Fear.
Or selfishness.
Instead — Luffy saves her sisters.
Sans shields them without hesitation.
Papyrus defends them loudly and proudly.
No manipulation.
No prejudice.
No agenda.
For the first time in years, Hancock feels something unfamiliar:
Respect.
Trust.
Relief.
Boa Hancock (softly):
"…Why would they protect us… even now?"
Sans looks up at her, hands in pockets.
Sans:
"simple.
we don't hurt people who don't deserve it."
Papyrus adds:
Papyrus:
"YES! THAT IS THE SKELETON CODE OF HONOR!"
Luffy shouts:
Luffy:
"We're friends now! That's why!"
The entire island goes silent again —
but this time, with warmth, not fear.
Screen 6 — The Truth About Hancock
The battles end, and the arena grows quiet.
Hancock dismisses the crowd and summons Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus privately.
For the first time, her voice isn't strict or commanding — it's heavy.
Boa Hancock:
"There is something you must understand…
why my sisters and I hide our backs."
She slowly reveals the truth.
---
Hancock's Past
Hancock explains:
She and her sisters were kidnapped as children
Sold to the Celestial Dragons
Branded with the slave mark
Forced to perform tricks and "entertain" the nobles
Fed Devil Fruits against their will
Treated as less than human
Papyrus grips his skull in horror.
Papyrus:
"THAT IS TERRIBLE! HOW CAN ANYONE DO THAT TO CHILDREN!?"
Sans's expression darkens.
Sans:
"…that symbol on your back… no one should have to carry that."
She tells them how Fisher Tiger, the legendary fish-man, scaled the Red Line alone and freed hundreds of slaves — including her.
But freedom didn't erase the trauma.
It shaped her pride, her distance, her distrust of outsiders.
Hancock looks down quietly.
Boa Hancock:
"…That is why I feared you seeing the mark."
Luffy sits cross-legged, no fear, no judgment.
Luffy:
"I don't care about that.
I just hate the people who did it to you."
Hancock's breath shakes for a moment —
not romance, just shock.
No one has ever reacted like that.
Sans nods.
Sans:
"yeah. celestial dragons are scum.
we've seen enough to know that much."
Papyrus raises a fist.
Papyrus:
"WE WILL ALWAYS STAND AGAINST THAT KIND OF EVIL!"
Hancock finally sees what the Kuja couldn't:
Luffy and the skeleton brothers do not judge.
They protect.
---
Luffy Learns Ace Is in Danger
Later, while eating with the Kuja warriors, Luffy receives news from a Marine broadcast.
His face goes pale.
Luffy:
"Ace…
Ace has been captured?"
He learns:
Ace is imprisoned in Impel Down
He is scheduled for public execution at Marineford
The Marines are preparing for a massive war
Luffy slams his fist against the table.
Luffy:
"I'm going to save him!
I don't care what prison it is!"
Papyrus is stunned.
Papyrus:
"IMPEL DOWN!? THAT PLACE IS A NIGHTMARE!"
Sans folds his arms, serious for once.
Sans:
"then we're going too.
you're not doing this alone."
---
Hancock Helps
Hancock stands and faces Luffy.
Not as an Empress.
Not as royalty.
As someone who finally understands him.
Boa Hancock:
"If you truly wish to save your brother…
I will help you."
She offers the only path she can:
She will pretend to capture Luffy
She will hide him under her cloak
She will smuggle him aboard a Marine ship
She will personally escort him to Impel Down
Sans nods, impressed.
Sans:
"smart plan. risky… but doable."
Papyrus salutes.
Papyrus:
"TO THE UNDERWATER PRISON WE GO!"
Hancock turns to them.
Hancock:
"You three will face horrors beyond imagination.
But I believe you can endure it."
With that, the Empress of Amazon Lily prepares the Straw Hat trio's secret passage…
setting the stage for the next arc:
Impel Down
