I'm glad for that. Helping friends is real heroic. And I don't see why anyone would take a lot to call someone their friend. [Clearly Luffy has a young disciple in this monk.]

I know that I used to always admire pirates when I heard stories about them as a kid. They sounded like they lived really adventurous lives of freedom, but when we actually met pirates, they were mean and attacked us just because Katara stole something from them. Pirates stopped being my heroes then. So I'm glad that you guys have given me reason to admire them again.
