To most passersby the day was proceeding as usual on Shabody Archipelago. The amusement park was full as usual and the docks and the merchants were working hard to earn a living. The lawless sector, groves 11-20, was as usual rive with a myriad of cutthroats and bandits. Most of these worked as hunters for the slave traders that worked the area. But today this part of the Archipelago was interrupted by it's daily business by the arrival of a tall man wearing the attire of a high ranking marine. His yellow coat marking him out amongst the many people that ran around.
Admiral Kizaru was not specifically on any orders to go the the lawless zone nor was he there on official marine business. He was there because one of his suits was in a less then impeccable state and he needed it fixed. There were dozens of lackeys that would run and fetch and cater to him in Mariejoa but he had no interest in such things. This was a special trip to him in any case. He had a contact that ran a small tailoring business in the lawless zone and he was heading there to have his coat fixed. His old friend was a former captain of the marines but had left the service after some unfortunate events. He and Kizaru had trained together and he had kept his contact with him. The man had a special touch when it came to fixing the suits that the Admiral liked so much and so routinely made these trips to visit his old friend and have his clothes fixed.
"aaaahn, where was it again.....?" said the tall admiral slowly to himself as he stood in grove 14, looking around. His face was marred with a slightly idiotic expression and he stood still for several minutes trying to figure out where his old friend had his shop set up. With his memory failing him he decided to ask the at the nearest tavern.
