Summary:
Robin and Usopp disguise themselves as the same visiting inspector, and Usopp is thrown into the brig with Zoro. Luffy and Sanji are discovered by Johnathan after a minor accident.
Robin and Usopp discover that the Going Merry has been moved. Robin suggests keeping calm and thinking of an escape plan, but Usopp prefers to start looking for his beloved ship. Robin approaches Stan Maley and notices an officer walking alone who says he is the Inspector General. He attacks and defeats him, then takes his clothes and disguises to walk around the base.
As a waiter, Luffy gives Vice Admiral Jonathan lunch, but is immediately exposed. Sanji tries to save him, but they are surrounded by the cooks. Fortunately, at that moment, a hundred marines enter the galley, and the two pirates are able to escape in the crowd without being arrested.
Disguising himself as a boy with a job, Usopp arrives where Merry is and meets the boatman Mekae, but is suddenly arrested and brought before Jonathan. The Commander begins to think that he might be the new Inspector from HQ, and Usopp confirms his belief. However, his lies are short lived as Robin enters the room pretending to be the real inspector. Usopp is then placed in the same cage as Zoro.
Robin takes a map of the base and finds that there is only access for ships. Luffy and Sanji instead try to break into the prison to free their friends.
