The scene opens in the Egghead Fabrio-Phase, a sprawling high-tech laboratory filled with floating platforms, machinery, and the label VEGA PUNK. A large speech bubble declares DON'T LET GOVERNMENT WEAPONS GET IN OUR WAY!! while another warns AREN'T YOU GUYS WITH THE NAVY!! and notes THE ONES STANDING IN THE WAY ARE... Smoke and debris fill the air as a massive explosion erupts. In close-up panels, a man in a black hat shouts HOW DARE YOU HURT MY... A powerful figure identified as PX-III 041, wearing a dark coat with a fur collar, charges forward with tremendous force, creating shockwaves and impact effects. The narration box repeats EGGHEAD FABRIO-PHASE.

An enormous explosion rocks the battlefield as someone yells WHAT ARE HIS ABILITIES!! and AAAH!! rings out. The towering Pacifista PX-III 041 stands at the center, his massive frame labeled MARINES SCIENTIFIC GROUP COMBAT WEAPON PACIFISTA. He extends a giant open hand while declaring MOVE TO FACTORY B. and DO NOT RESIST! An ally shouts IT'S A BUBBLE SHIELD! and VEGAPUNK INVENTED IT!! IT'S A POWERFUL SHIELD!! Marines in the foreground aim weapons and yell EVERYONE SURRENDER! IF YOU FIGHT HIM YOU'LL ONLY END UP DYING! while another notes IT'S ON A DIFFERENT LEVEL FROM THE PROTOTYPES USED IN THE PARAMOUNT WAR. IT'S THE PACIFISTA MARK III!!

A stern-faced Marine in a helmet declares, "APPREHENDING NOW." Nearby, two suited agents with rifles shout in alarm, "WHO GAVE HIM THOSE ORDERSI!" and "THERE'S NO WAY A PACIFISTA WOULD JUST ACT ON ITS OWN LIKE THAT!" as smoke and debris swirl around them. Below, civilians and workers react to the chaos: "WHAT'S GOING ON UPSTAIRSI!" "HUFF HUFF... WHAT A DAY." "YOU'LL INJURE YOURSELF!" "DON'T MOVE!" and "LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING HAPPENED UP THERE." A large bearded man in a black tank top with a circular emblem struggles on the floor, saying, "I CAN'T GET IN CONTACT WITH..." while clutching a small transponder snail. A tiny figure clings to him, calling out, "OLD MAN PUNK." He adds, "THEY EVEN CLOSED THE FRONTIER DOME." Large impact sound effects rumble across the bottom of the page.

The large bearded man pants heavily with "HUFF HUFF" and "BZZ..." effects as a grinning Straw Hat Luffy appears beside him, declaring, "LEAVE IT UP TO ME! WE WILL GET VEGAPUNK OUT OF HERE NO MATTER WHAT!" A small round robot-like figure with two antennae states, "...IS THE FACT THAT THE MARINES ARE CONTACTING US WITHOUT REALIZING IT..." and "I'M ALSO NOW A REBEL," while "BZZ..." signals flicker. Inside a control room, an operator yells, "MOVE OUT!!" as the screen displays "ALL SO MARK III PACIFISTAS!!" A serious Marine in a cap replies, "SO, I WILL JUST DO AS I PLEASE!" with a "BEEP" sound. The large man glares intensely from the side.

Smoke and debris fill the air as a voice commands, "GO AND KEEP A LOOKOUT!" while another notes, "THE NAVY IS ACTING STRANGE." A massive ship labeled "FX-III 033" launches with the line, "LETTING VEGAPUNK SAIL SAFELY IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!!" and "STRAWHAT LUFFY WILL LET DR. VEGAPUNK BOARD HIS SHIP!" An agent responds, "UNDERSTOOD." On the ground, panicked figures yell, "SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY GOING TO HAPPEN TO THIS ISLAND!!" and "HEY, WAIT LET US OUT!!" as they are shoved aside. Close-ups show the large bearded man sweating and determined, vowing, "MAKE SURE YOU GET YOUR CREATOR OFF THIS ISLAND!!" and "NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES," with heavy impact effects.

Above the clouds, the floating island structure labeled "PUNK RECORDS" and a sign reading "EGGHEAD-LABOPHASE" comes into view. A voice wonders, "WHAT'S GOING ONI" and "THEY HAVE TO BE INSIDE THE LAB RIGHTI!" On the ground, an exhausted Luffy sticks out his tongue with "HUFF HUFF," while a small goggled robot figure complains, "LUFFY, YOU BROKE THE HOVERBOOTS WITH ALL THAT RUNNING." and "DON'T TELL THEM I HAVE NO MONEY TO PAY HIM BACK!" Luffy gasps, "I'M REALLY WORN OUT FROM RUNNING AROUND SO MUCH!" Inside the lab, monitors show chaos as voices shout, "SAY THAT SOONER!!" "EVERYTHING IN THE LAB IS RIGHT HERE ON THE MONITOR." "BEEP" and "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL USI!" Bonney appears on screen with the group noting, "NO, BONNEY IS HERE." "AND BONNEY TOO..." "WHERE DID OLD MAN APPLE GOI" and "HUHI"

Inside the chaotic control room of the Frontier Dome, Vegapunk's satellites react in panic. "WE CAN'T LEAVE THE LABOPHASE. THIS MEANS," one cries. "WHAT DO YOU MEANI!" another shouts. "THE SECOND ONE IS FRONTIER DOME ISN'T WORKING CORRECTLY. THE FIRST ONE IS... THE MAIN BODY STELLA IS MISSING," reports a helmeted figure. "KEEP CALM AND LISTEN. THERE ARE TWO STRANGE OCCURRENCES GOING ON," commands another. On the right, a tall robot-like Vegapunk satellite exclaims, "IS IT THE FUTUREI!" while a blonde woman in a "PUNK" top and a spiky-haired man in a jacket labeled "55" stand nearby. "WOAH THIS PLACE IS AWESOME! WEREN'T WE GONNA SET SAILI" someone asks. Below, injured figures lie on the floor as voices warn, "IF WE LEAVE NOW WE WILL GET BURNED TO DEATH BY LASERS." "WE HAD SPARE PARTS! YOUR FACE GOT BETTER!" A lower panel shows an older satellite pondering, "IF HE WON'T SHOW UP ON THE MONITOR," while others conclude, "HOW ARE WE GOING TO FIND VEGAPUNK," "FIRST THING WE HAVE TO DO IS FIND HIM," "THAT'S RIGHT. BUT HE HAS DISAPPEARED," and "THEN, WE CAN FIX THE DOME." In the final panel, the group reacts with shock: "WAAAIT WEREN'T WE GONNA TAKE VEGAPUNK OUT TO SEAI I WANNA SEE STELLA. WHAT HAPPENEDI" as a large "どん!!" sound effect erupts.

The Vegapunk satellites examine the damaged monitor feeds. "BECAUSE OF THE SHOCK FROM THE SERAPHIM FIGHTING," one explains as camera snail screens show static and errors. "USUALLY YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE EVERYTHING IN THE MONITORS. THE CAMERA SNAILS MOVED FROM THEIR ORIGINAL POSITION AND LOST CONSCIOUSNESS," another notes. "DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE IS ANYONE IN THE C TOWER," observes a satellite labeled "01". "SHAKA! IT'S PYTHAGORAS! THE CAMERA SNAILS MAY GO IN AND OUT OF CONSCIOUSNESS. WE ARE HAVING THE SATELLITE CHECK ON THEM," continues the discussion. "OKAY, WHAT ABOUT THE NEXT ONEI" A lower section shows the blonde woman (Lilith) reacting with hearts around her: "WHOAAA!! STUSSY-SAMA! TAKE ME WITH YOU!!" as she reaches out. Nearby figures including a skull-masked person and others declare, "I'LL LOOK FOR HIM TOO. I'M WORRIED TOO. I'LL GO WITH YOU. WE HAVE TO HURRY UP AND FIND HIM SO WE CAN SET SAIL. LET'S GO SEARCH FOR HIM. AND FIND THE TREASURE."

Straw Hat crew members argue in the lab. "...JUST SIT STILL, OKAYI YEAH! THAT'S DEFINITELY NOT ZORO'S STRONG POINT! WE ARE GONNA END UP LOOKING FOR YOU NEXT!" a woman says as others react. "WAIT A SEC, MOSS-HEAD!! THE OLD MAN WITH THE TOP OF HIS HEAD CUT OFF, RIGHTI I GUESS I'LL GO LOOK FOR HIM TOO. YOU OF ALL PEOPLE ARE GONNA SEARCH FOR SOMEONEI!" a swordsman-like figure snaps back with motion lines "ガシャ" and "どん". In the next area, a man lies exhausted: "HUFF... HUFF... HUFF... I'M ALWAYS READY TO GO... JUST HOW MUCH DID YOU RUNI...WHAT ARE YOU SAYINGI WELL, I GUESS THEY DID HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE TO FIND HIM... TO THINK THAT WE'D RUN INTO THESE GUYS AGAIN..." A separate section labeled "T/N: Paw Room" and "INSIDE THE LAB - NIKYU ROOM" shows a small figure yelling "BONNEY! DON'T TOUCH THAT! SHUT UP! GET OUT OF HERE! UWAAH!" while an older man thinks, "I WONDER HOW OLD MAN ICE IS DOING... TAKES ME BACK... WATER 7..."

On a barren surface under a bright sun, a long-haired woman stands shocked as a small figure lies in the distance. "WAHH... HUH... ギュウ..." she reacts with wide eyes. Close-ups show sweat drops and gasps: "WAAAH... GASP... AHH... AHH..." A large bear-like creature curls up crying "WAAAH... WAAAH..." as the woman approaches asking, "...WHAT'S WRONGI HEY..." In the final panels, shadowy figures appear and shout aggressively: "IF YOU RUN, WE'LL ALL GET KILLED! YOU BASTARD! COME WITH US RIGHT NOW!! WE FOUND HIM!!! COME WITH US!!" The woman looks back in alarm: "I DON'T WADDA GOOO!! HUH!I SOMEBODY SAVE MEEE! I DON'T WADDA GOOO!! DAD...I"

A long-haired girl with tears streaming down her face stares in horror, whispering "WHAT...I" as chaos erupts around her. A monstrous, distorted face looms with a gaping mouth, roaring "I'M GODDA DIE ANYWAYS!!" Someone yells "GET BACK HERE!" and "WHAT ARE YOU CRYING FORI! YOU DAMN BRAT!" while another voice retorts "THEN JUST KILL ME!!" The girl clutches her weapon, shouting "I DON'T WADDA GO THERE EVER AGAIN!!!" as she is repelled by an unseen force. A dark silhouette swings a bat wildly, striking figures on the ground amid cries of "STOP!!!" and "STOP IT!!!" The girl pleads desperately, "STOP IT, PLEASE..." and "SOMEBODY... HELP ME..." while the silhouette growls "IT HURTS!!" and "I'M SORRY!!!" Multiple overlapping voices scream "IT HURTS..." "I'M SORRY..." and "HELP..." as the violence intensifies.

A massive burst of light and energy erupts as the long-haired girl is hurled backward, her weapon firing with a loud "ビシャッ..." and "ズドン..." Someone shouts "WOAAH!!" The scene shifts to a cloaked figure lying on the ground, breathing heavily with repeated "HUFF..." sounds. The girl, now on her knees and panting, looks up with a determined yet tearful expression. The cloaked figure rises, revealing a massive, bear-like form. A voice declares "IS CURRENTLY BARTHOLOMEW KUMA..." as the figure draws a sword and another orders "SHOOT HIM DOWN!!" The girl watches in shock amid the tense standoff.

The long-haired girl clutches her face, saying "IF I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, I WON'T BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND ANYTHING...! ISN'T THAT RIGHT, FATHERI" She adds "I'M STILL NOT READY FOR THIS... I'M NOT ABLE TO TAKE IT IN YET...!!!" In the background, a small figure stands near futuristic structures. A man in a coat walks away, noting "ALTHOUGH THIS IS WHERE THE SERAPHIM WAS FIRST BORN... WELL, AT LEAST IT'S GOING DOWN IN A REALLY FLASHY WAY, RIGHTI" Explosions rock the area with "ゴゴゴゴゴゴ" sounds. A small, round Vegapunk robot appears, asking "HMI" and "NOW, WHERE MIGHT YOU BE, STELLAI!" as another figure cries out "AAAH!!"

A News Coo delivers a newspaper with dramatic flair as a bird-like figure laughs "KUWAHAHAHA! TAKE A LOOK AT THIS!" The headline reads "WE NEWS". The bird-man, identified as a reporter, exclaims "AN AMAZING SCOOP JUST CAME IN!" and declares "...HOWEVER, THE GOVERNMENT IS MAKING A MISTAKE. VEGAPUNK IS A POPULAR FIGURE WORLDWIDE!" He continues, "THIS SEEMS TO BE A REPEAT OF THE OHARA INCIDENT!! THE WORLD GOVERNMENT IS CARRYING OUT AN ASSASSINATION ON NONE OTHER THAN DR. VEGAPUNK!" Citizens react in shock. One panel shows "Straw Hat" Luffy taking Vegapunk hostage, with the reporter noting "ALRIGHT, THEN OUR HEADLINE WILL BE AS IT FOLLOWS! ONE OF THE FOUR EMPERORS..." A reader complains "WHAT A SILLY NEWS ARTICLE!" while another yells "THIS GUY!!"

In a bustling city street, the massive bird-man Morgans looms angrily with his feathered crew while a blonde woman in a black dress stands with arms crossed. A large sign reads "KING OF EVIL BLACK DRUM KINGDOM". Morgans shouts, "WATCH YOUR VOICE! THERE'S A SPY TRANSPONDER SNAIL AROUND HERE! IF OUR LOCATION GETS REVEALED... THE GOVERNMENT WILL ERASE US!" The woman retorts, "HEY!! THIS IS WHY I HATE THE WENP! LUFFY WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING!" A speech bubble adds, "I LEND HER THAT SHIRT. I'M NEVER GONNA WASH IT." Another voice warns, "ALSO, MORG-CHAN IS HIDING US! DON'T BE RUDE!" Below, the woman is labeled "PRINCESS OF ALABASTA". Morgans declares dramatically, "THE ONE THAT WILL RILE UP THE WORLD WILL BE ME!" A smaller panel shows him gesturing wildly as text states, "THE GIRL WHO WAS CRYING UP 'TIL YESTERDAY!" and "DON'T ACT SO STUCK UP AND TALK BACK TO ME ABOUT MY JOB!" Narration boxes read, "IT'S NOT ABOUT TRUTH OR LIES! THE NEWSPAPER IS ALL ABOUT ENTERTAINMENT!" and "INFORMATION RUNS THROUGH THE WORLD!!" The page ends with the One Piece logo and "CH 1074".

The official color title page for the chapter displays the One Piece logo at the top with Japanese text. Below it reads "CHAPTER 1074 - MARK III". The central illustration shows a chaotic battle: a large muscular man with a pipe and yellow hair clashes fiercely with a smaller horned figure amid swirling blue energy effects. A third armored fighter with a mask joins the fray. At the bottom, text states "GERMA 66'S AHH... AN EMOTIONLESS EXCURSION VOL. 30: THREE WAR-TORN MEN". The author credit "EIICHIRO ODA" appears prominently along with.

News Coo birds fly through the sky carrying a "WEEKLY WORLD NEWS" blimp. One bird exclaims, "AN AMAZING SCOOP JUST CAME IN!" while another shouts, "KUUWAHAHAHA! TAKE A LOOK AT THIS!" with large SFX "どん!!". In close-up, Morgans the bird-man reads the paper with wide eyes, declaring, "...HOWEVER, THE GOVERNMENT IS MAKING A MISTAKE! VEGAPUNK IS A POPULAR FIGURE WORLDWIDE! THIS SEEMS TO BE A REPEAT OF THE OHARA INCIDENT!! THE WORLD GOVERNMENT IS CARRYING OUT AN ASSASSINATION ON NONE OTHER THAN DR. VEGAPUNK! HE'S LIT UP MANY TOWNS AROUND THE WORLD WITH HIS DEVELOPMENTS IN ENERGY!! THEY'RE REALLY GOING TO KILL THE WORLD'S GREATEST GENIUSI!" A hand clicks a transponder snail with "CLICK!". In a city square, civilians react as one says, "THE GOVERNMENT IS GONNA LOVE ME! I WANT A REWARD FOR THIS!!" while another reads, "'STRAW HAT' LUFFY, HAS TAKEN VEGAPUNK HOSTAGE AND WAGED WAR AGAINST THE MARINES!! ALRIGHT, THEN OUR HEADLINE WILL BE AS IT FOLLOWS! ONE OF THE FOUR EMPERORS..." A voice replies, "UNDERSTOOD! WHAT A SILLY NEWS ARTICLE!" and another yells, "LUCKILY, SOMEONE THAT HAPPENS TO BE THERE IS... THIS GUY!!" with dramatic SFX.
