Lee makes his way back down to the port after what he considered to be a successful briefing.
I'm not one for speaking in front of a group, so I'm glad I was able to get my message across. The team seemed to respond to it very well. Maybe I'll make a good leader after all...
Lee's thoughts are interrupted by a peculiar sight at the port, right in front of the Danko. A group of his own Marines stood in place, at attention, seemingly terrified. In front of them, stood a short, scrawny, well dressed blonde haired man, and marching back and forth in front of Lee's Marines in a frenzy was a large, blonde Marine with an Iron Jaw and an Axe for a Hand. Ripper stood off to the side at attention, watching this whole event unfold.
The Marine with an Axe Hand was shouting as he marched furiously back and forth. Lee could just barely hear his words.
Axe-Hand: "...THAT BASTARD FISH EVER ORDERS HIS MEN TO INVESTIGATE MY TOWN AGAIN, I'LL CUT HIM TO PIECES MYSELF AND FEED HIM TO THE DOGS!! I'VE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH NERVE FROM A FOREIGN OFFICER! HE'D DO WELL TO KNOW WHERE IS AUTHORITY ENDS..."
Lee then realized that the Marines that had lined up at attention were his own Marines that he had ordered into the Town to investigate some of the rumors.
Ah, now I understand. Axe-Hand Morgan. Finally.
Lee walks up to the port and stands directly behind Morgan, who is pacing. The look that the Marines had on their faces as they saw Lee was one of simultaneous panic and relief. As neither Morgan nor the short scrawny bald man were facing Lee, neither of them realized what was going on. The short man began to screech.
Helmeppo: "What in the hell do you all think you're looking at!! Do you realize who is standing in front of you!! My Daddy will kill you all without even a second-"
The boy stops speaking as he turns around and sees Lee towering over him. The look on his face had immediately transitioned from righteous anger into shock and fear. Morgan, at seeing that his son had stopped speaking, turned and saw Lee as well. For a moment, he was in shock at the sight before him, but he quickly looked angry once again. He charges up to Lee and stands very close to him. He looks up at Lee and begins to shout.
Morgan: "Now you listen here you damned animal! No one comes into my city and sticks their nose into my business!! If you ever do so again, I'll kill you and all of your men without hesitation!! You have no idea who you're dealing with...Have I made myself clear?!"
Ripper: "Captain Morgan!! Please, for your own sake, stop! These Marines are all Monsters! I saw one fall from the sky and get up like it was nothing! Please don't pick a fight with them!"
All of Lee's men looked at him, eagerly awaiting his response. Lee, in a seathing rage, grabs Morgan by the shirt collar and raises him up off of the ground so that Morgan's face was extremely close to his.
Lee: "Axe-Hand Morgan. If you ever threaten in a Superior Officer in front of me again, I pull that metal jaw clean off of your mouth and feed it to you during your Court Martial. Do you understand?!"
Morgan remained silent with a look of complete shock on his face. Helmeppo practically had tears in his eyes. Ripper wore a look of panic. Lee continues to hold Morgan off of the ground, but looks towards one of his men. "Report!!"
The young Marine speaks in a panic. "Sir! Yes sir!" His voice wavering as he speaks. "We were unable to find any concrete evidence of Captain Morgan's wrong-doings! Our investigation turned up no results!"
Lee remains silent for a moment. "Back to the ship! All of you!" His Marines all march off to the ship. Their posture and pace was one of children who had just been caught in the middle of a fight between parents.
Lee looks at Morgan and speaks again. "I don't like the Rumors I've heard about this town. Not one damned bit. So I'll be sending even more of my men to keep an eye on you and every Marine here. And if their reports to me of the situation here, as well as the rumors that I hear don't improve, drastically, I'll be back for you myself."
Lee puts Morgan down aggressively. Morgan stumbles back to his feet, with a look of shock still on his face. Helmeppo and Ripper remained silent. Helmeppo looked like he had seen a ghost. Lee walks towards the Danko, but turns back one more time to address Morgan.
"You are the worst kind of man, Morgan. If I had any concrete reason for taking you in, I'd do so without a second thought. For the people of this island's sake, as well as your own, I would make some drastic changes, if I were you."
Lee turns back around and boards the Danko. His men were all running around the ship as they prepared the ship to sail. Lee calms himself down.
Now as soon as Jax gets here, we'll make way.
