As the ongoing adventure-comedy One Piece continues, the Straw Hat Pirates make a typically skin-of-their-teeth escape from the island-fortress of Navaronne with the help of a giant, inflatable octopus. Back at sea, they come to Long Ring Long Land, a circle of linked islets. Everything on these islands grows… long: the apples are shaped like bananas, a dachshund stretches over a mile, and a horse looks like a giraffe. The Straw Hats' peaceful visit turns hostile with the arrival of the Foxy Pirates, an outré crew whose designs suggest the One Piece artists had been watching Yellow Submarine. The leader of the Foxies challenges Luffy's Straw Hats to a "Davy Back" match, a series of bizarre games even less rational than Bill Watterson's Calvinball. The slapstick variations on roller derby, dodge ball, et al. are complicated by the Foxies' cheating and invocation of obscure rules. But the stakes are high: each time someone wins a round, that team gets to take a member of the other's crew for their own ship. If someone loses three games, the team can also lose their Jolly Roger banner, the ultimate shame for a pirate. While they're no odder looking than many of the Straw Hats' previous foes, the Foxy Pirates all have grating, screeching voices, and viewers will agree with Nami when she says, "I've had about enough of that laugh." After the Straw Hats' hard-won victory, the Foxy Captain challenges Luffy to a second match--which he accepts with his usual mixture of unquenchable enthusiasm and blithe stupidity. Nami, Zorro, and Usopp are furious, but the captain calls the s. Luffy is determined to become King of the Pirates, but he seems determined to get there the hard way.
