The 13th chapter of One Piece, titled "Treasure", has Luffy thrash Mohji over the loss of a loyal dog's pet shop, showing Nami a side of piracy she did not expect.
Summary
Boodle and Nami can scarcely believe Luffy survived Richie's assault, and when the mayor asks why he came to Orange Town, Luffy answers that he wants the Grand Line map and a navigator. Meanwhile Mohji and his lion reach the pet store, where the small dog Chouchou refuses to let them pass. The dog fights the beast and loses, yet will not give up the shop that holds the memory of his owner.
Key Events
Luffy finds the store in flames with Chouchou barking over his ruined treasure. When Mohji returns, he cannot fathom that Luffy still lives and sends Richie to attack, only for the rubber captain to halt the lion cold. Realizing Luffy bears a Devil Fruit like Buggy, Mohji pleads for mercy, but Luffy tells him the apology is owed elsewhere, stretches out his arms, and slams the beast tamer headfirst into the ground.
Notes
Returning to the wreckage, Nami vents her hatred of pirates on Luffy, though Boodle restrains her. Luffy sets down a single bag of pet food, all that survived the fire, and the grateful dog accepts it, leaving Nami puzzled by such an un-piratelike act. Buggy, enraged, orders the Buggy Balls readied to flatten the town. The cover shows Luffy fishing up an enormous turtle.
