Preliminary Briefing on Thunderstone Pirates
To: All members of Fairy Tale and Vice-Admiral Garp's Marine

Re: Pre-battle information on the Thunderstone Pirates
Ok, so Vice-Admiral Garp asked us to take care of these Thunderstone Pirates, and we're about to make landfall, so I think it would be a good idea to go over what information we've been able to get on them and then hopefully come up with a plan to catch them.
Right. We'll start with their captain, Thunder. Other than having a really dumb name, she seems like she'll be kinda hard to catch. She has a bounty of 90,000 beri. According to reports, she uses a club to channel thunder like energy from the atmosphere which will stun whoever gets hit by it, so we'll need to watch out for that.
The first mate is Stone. It seems like they're kind of a couple, I guess? So that probably explains the name of their crew. His bounty is 50,000 beri. I think he's just... tough? Anyway, no special talents have been reported.
A third member of their crew, Jonas, has a bounty of 30,000 beri. He's known as a pickpocket, so I'm guessing he'll be pretty fast and agile.
All told, they have about 20 crew, all with varying abilities. They've been holding a town captive for two weeks, demanding payment of 1,000,000 beri from the government. We're to go in pretending to have the money for them, so I guess that means that they'll be wanting us to come.
Other than that, though, we really ought to make some sort of a plan. Or at least get an idea of each others' abilities beforehand, so that we don't screw each other up. So. I guess I'll start. I have protective armor, so if they fire guns at me don't worry, the bullets will just bounce off. You should be careful that they don't ricochet and hit you, though. I'm a good fighter (Nii-san hasn't ever beat me, and he's pretty well known where we come from), and I can do a lot of things with alchemy.
