The Luffy Pirates Four-Panel Theatre (ルフィ海賊団四コマ劇場, Rufi Kaizokudan Yonkoma Gekijõ?) consists of eight yonkoma strips published throughout the second databook. Each spotlights a different Straw Hat in a bizarre, gag-driven scenario.
Like all omake features, these have no bearing on the canon storyline.
Stories[]
Monkey D. Luffy version[]
Captain Luffy's "Go with the looks type" (キャプテン・ルフィの「形から入る系」, Kyaputen Rufi no "Katachi Kara Hairu-kei"?)
Summary: Luffy tells Sanji he wants to eat doughnuts, but Sanji says no because they have limited food resources. He tells Luffy to wait until they reach the next island, much to Luffy's disappointment. After a while, Zoro asks Luffy if he saw his dumbbells. Luffy turns around and says no with his closed mouth in a round shape, indicating there is a dumbbell plate in there. The last box shows Zoro lifting his dumbbells that has a beat-up Luffy on top.
Roronoa Zoro version[]
Brother Zoro's "Traveling Guide" (ゾロ兄やんの「観光ガイド」, Zoro-aniyan no `Kankō Gaido'?)
Summary: Zoro the travel guide tells a crowd of people to follow him, and that he will guide them to the festival occurring in town. Zoro and the crowd of people walk through the town, onto a bridge made of a log, and finally onto a deserted island in the middle of the sea.
Sanji version[]
"Sanji Man": A Man That Follows The Path of a Man (男の道を行く男「サンジマン」, Otoko no Michi o Iku Otoko `Sanjiman'?)
Summary: Sanji is seen trying out for Karate, Shorinji Kempo, and Boxing, surrounded by all men. Each time he tries out a new "sport of the man", Sanji seems to get weaker and weaker, and eventually he goes to the hospital. Usopp, as a doctor, tells Sanji that he has the "I-will-die-without-women-disease" (女っ気がないと死んでしまう病, On'nakke ga nai to Shindeshimau-byō?). Sanji trembles and barely manages to press a button, weakly calling out for a nurse, but Usopp tells him that the hospital only has male nurses.
Usopp version[]
Brother Usopp's "GO TO Oni Slaying" (ウソップ兄やんの「GO TO 鬼退治」, Usoppu-aniyan no "GO TO Oni Taiji"?)
Summary: Usopp, a samurai, tells his grandmother & grandfather that he will go oni slaying. He tells them that he will gather 8000 subordinates, and asks them to make 8000 kibi dango in order to feed each of his servants. On his journey, Usopp comes across a monkey boss and tells him to join his group if he wants a kibi dango. The monkey boss quickly beats Usopp, who changes his mind on scouting bossy people. The final panel shows Usopp saying "Let's go-!" with three subordinates - an aged monkey, a bird and a dog - who have eaten all 8000 dango.
- Note: This story is based on the Japanese fairy-tale Momotarō.
Nami version[]
Queen Nami the Sista's "Wish Upon a Star" (女王ナミ姉やんの「星に願いを」, Joō Nami-aneyan no "Hoshininegaiwo"?)
Summary: Queen Nami remarks that the stars are pretty to her servant, Usopp. Usopp tells Queen Nami that if someone wishes upon a star 3 times before it disappears, their wish comes true. As Usopp brags about how he is good at tongue twisters, and that it would be more than easy to make any long wish come true, Queen Nami notices a shooting star, to Usopp's surprise. Usopp tries to wish "I wanna become a great warrior of the sea" 3 times, but is unable to, and Nami simply wishes for money three times, walking away happily. Usopp's face is drained and sweating, as he watches her leave.
Tony Tony Chopper version[]
Champion of Justice, "Chopper Man" (正義の味方「チョッパーマン」, Seigi no Mikata "Choppāman"?)
Summary: A couple of little kids come crying to Chopper Man, pleading for help. Chopper Man simply nods and says "OK" to them. The kids point at a big robot and people running away from it, telling him that it's a bomb in the form of a robot. Chopper Man sparkles as he imagines riding on it flying, to the children's shock, as more people yell and run away in the background.
- Note: This is the only 4-Cell Theatre strip that has continuation stories to it.
Nefertari Vivi version[]
Vivi-yan and the "Magic Lamp" (ビビやんと「魔法のランプ」, Bibi-yan to "Mahō no Ranpu"?)
Summary: A genie pops out of a lamp in front of Vivi, to her surprise, and tells her that he will grant 3 wishes for her. Vivi hesitantly wishes for world peace, equal rights, and for the genie to become free. The genie is deeply touched, and follows Vivi around with now feet instead of being in a lamp. Vivi screams and runs.
Nico Robin version[]
Demon Incarnate "Robin Devil" (悪魔の化身「ロビンデビル」, Akuma no Keshin `Robin Debiru'?)
Summary: Robin Devil giggles as she states that she does not care if people die. Other demons cheer in the background. The "worst devil in hell", DJ Satan, comes to the scene dancing along with his subordinates, and tells Robin Devil they should "terrorize the world". In the next panel, DJ Satan is all beat up, and some devils cause a ruckus yelling that Robin Devil is especially annoyed today, wondering what DJ Satan did. In the final panel, a flower garden with a ruined flower and footsteps everywhere is shown.
