The Casino Of Course

I looked to see the giant, golden banana gator atop Rain Dinners. Standing in front of the casino I struggled my way through the crowds, keeping a tight hold of my new possessions. This being a city where people can gamble, I had no doubts that thre were plenty of theives who would steal and take advantage of people with money coming and going from the casino. Though i would probably be safe inside the casino itself because who would be dumb enough to try to steal from a casino run by a warlord of the sea, but you never know whats going to happen so just in case . "It's normal for no one to wish to steal or pickpocket from me, ever!"

Walking into the casino was amazing top it was filled to bottom with people in fancy and not so fancy cloths playing all kinds of card games and slots and waiters bringing people drinks and a fancy bar with comfortable looking seats. I walked in and traded in the money i had for chips ( Only about 1/4 total of what i took from the guy at the docks I left the rest in the hotel room and made sure to use the earrings power so that nobody would take it and i could easy get it back later if i needed to leave it behind for any reson) into chips and went to a card table. With the power of the earrings i didnt exactly need money i could just take what i wanted without fuss. But it was nice to have. I decided that while i would gamble i wound not use the earrings to do so. Even though the earrings would probably protect me I didnt want to draw attention to myself (at least not yet) especailly when in a Warlords of the seas casino. Nami had gotten around my earrings effect because I drew to much attention to myself and I didnt want to find out what Crocodile would do to me if I did the same because it would definitly be worse than beating me up and turning me over to the marines.

Without the earrings power i lost about 1/2 of the berri i had brought with me but i still had alot of fun. I headed to the bar for a drink Sitting down i ordered an expensive drink and looked around thinking about my next steps. When I heard yelling and a crashing sound from the front and Straw Hat and his crew including Nami followed by Smoker but no Tashegi running past me twords the back of the casino yelling for Crocodile. I stould up and went after them through the VIP doors down a series of hallways but stopped when i saw the sign splitting the hallways for pirates and VIPs and i saw a trap door open and the Strawhats and Smoker fall down it.

I went the other way It took a couple minutes but i found the room where I saw a huge aquarium that had a couple of huge Crocdiles in it and Crocodile it looked like he was gloating in front of a cage with the Strawhats and smoker inside of it so I immeditaly hid behind a part of the wall that formed the doorway into the room and whispered "Its perfectly normal to Nami and Smoker to see me as somebody else:

"Its also perfectly normal for Crocodile and everybody else in that room to see as a perfectly normal grunt not even worth questioning why i am there or worth even harming only to notice me if it is to help save me then you save me and forget about me"

And i walked into the room to listen to the conversation
