One Piece Chapter 1080: The Legendary Hero

A colorful spread features Monkey D. Luffy lounging with a cigarette, wearing a black cap and sunglasses, surrounded by bottles. A yellow cat in a matching hat and coat sits in front of him. A woman with sunglasses and a butterfly tattoo relaxes nearby. A notes box includes an illustration of a fish and the text "BEEN 3 YEARS SINCE MY LAST STRAWBERRY PICKING BBQ! I GOT ZAPDOS IN A KILLER TRADE SO IT WAS A FANTASTIC DAY! - (ODA EIICHIRO)".

On Hachinosu, the Pirate Island in the New World, a massive skull-shaped rock formation looms over the town as pirates react in panic. Speech bubbles shout "CAP'N KOBY'S ON THE LOOSE!!" and "NO KIDDIN'I!" while sound effects like "ドドド" and "ゴォォ" rumble. A sign reads "HACHINOSU - THE PIRATE ISLAND, NEW WORLD" and "HAVOC AT THE HIVE OF PIRACYI!". In the streets, pirates clash with Marines; one yells "CROSS GUILD'S FOOTING THE BILL!!" while another retorts "DON'T ASK ME...". A Marine questions "THEN THE COMMODORE'S GOT NO CLAIM ON 'IM! HIS BOUNTY'S UP FOR GRABS!" and "HOW MUCH DO WE GET FOR KILLIN'I!". The bottom panels show a Marine wanted poster for Koby marked with five stars and the word "REWARD". Pirates exclaim "HE'S A FIVE-STAR BOUNTYI!", "EACH STAR'S WORTH A CHEST O' BOOTY, SO HE'S WORTH AROUND $500 MILLION!!", "THE AVERAGE NAVY CAPTAIN ONLY FETCHES A SINGLE STAR!!", and "I'VE GOT HIS COLLECTION TICKET RIGHT 'ERE! THE PAYOUT IS HUGE!" while arguing "SPIT IT OUT, HOW MUCH DOES HIS HEAD WIN USI!".

The giant skull formation on Hachinosu reacts with sound effects "ゴゴゴ" and "ゴォォ". A voice from within says "I'M FEELING A TICKLING SENSATION ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY CHEST," followed by "THAT'S RIGHT AROUND WHERE WE KEEP THE UNSOLD SLAVES, NYAHA!!" and "DON'T TELL ME THEY'RE ESCAPING TOOI!". Below, a Navy HQ Captain (Sword member) named Koby, bound in chains with a large spiked ball, looks alarmed. Pirates nearby shout "THEY KNOW WE WERE HERE!! LET'S HURRY!!", "HUFF. HUFF.", "YOU CRAZYI! QUIT BEING SO BLOODTHIRSTY!! WE NEED THEM ALIVE, THAT INCLUDES KOBY!!", and "DOES THIS MEAN IT'S OPEN SEASON ON ALL OF 'EM, PIZARRO-SANI!". Koby yells "ACKK!!" as a voice threatens "LISTEN OR I'LL TELL TEACH!!". Another pirate asks "IS THAT VOICE COMING FROM THE ROCK FACEI!" while chaos erupts around the town.

On the streets of Pirate Island, civilians and pirates alike panic and flee as a massive figure looms. "HE'S A SAINT...!!" someone yells. Marines shout orders: "DON'T LOSE TRACK OF KOBY!! HUNT HIM DOWN!!" and "PLEASE KEEP GOING!! I'LL ACT AS A DECOY AND KEEP THEM BUSY!! WE WOULDN'T HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR WITHOUT YOU, CAPTAIN KOBY!!" Koby's allies urge him onward while thanking him. In a closer view, Avalo Pizarro laughs "NYAA HA HA HA!!" while a bearded man notes "NAH, TEACH ALWAYS GETS PISSED AT ME FOR CAUSIN' TOO MUCH DAMAGE!" Shiryu stands nearby. Text boxes identify "CORRUPT KING" AVALO PIZARRO, AN ISLAND MAN WHO ATE THE ISLAND-ISLAND FRUIT and SHIRYU OF THE RAIN, AN INVISIBLE MAN WHO ATE THE CLEAR-CLEAR FRUIT. Vasco Shot suggests "YOU COULD JUST CATCH HIM YOURSELF, PIZARRO..." Pizarro asks "WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN MIND, VASCOI" as Vasco replies "THEN CAN I GOI" with sound effects like "ズドン!!" and "わっ".

Vasco Shot laughs "GLUG-AH GA GA GA!!" while declaring "OH, YEAH THAT'S A PURRRFECT PLAN, ONLY THING IS... ALL THAT FIRE DAMAGE WOULD STILL PISS OFF TEACH!!" A text box labels him "HEAVY DRINKER" VASCO SHOT, A BOOZE MAN WHO ATE THE GLUG-GLUG FRUIT. He continues "IF I BURN THE TOWN DOWN, THERE'LL BE NOWHERE LEFT TO RUN." Below, Sanjuan Wolf sleeps with "Zzzz..." while Vasco boasts "WELL, I'D DO A BETTER JOB OF IT THAN WOLF." A massive octopus-like creature and bubbles fill the scene over the town. A text box identifies "THE COLOSSAL BATTLESHIP" SANJUAN WOLF, A GIANT WHO ATE THE BIG-BIG FRUIT AND BECAME A GIGANTIFICATION MAN. Someone notes "THEY ONLY JUST PATCHED UP THE DAMAGE FROM THE ROCKY PORT INCIDENT!!" and "THAT GOES WITHOUT SAYING!"

A chained prisoner flees through the town, thinking "ESCAPING ON FOOT MIGHT NOT BE POSSIBLE... BUT AT LEAST I'LL BE ABLE TO BUY ENOUGH TIME FOR THE OTHERS TO SET SAIL...!!" as pursuers yell "I FOUND HIM!!" with impact sounds "バキン!! ドドドドドド!!" A skull-masked figure watches. Kuzan (Aokiji) appears, asking "TELL ME... SO, HERO..." Blackbeard lounges in a ruined throne room, laughing "ZE HA HA HA!!" while declaring "THE BLACKBEARD KINGDOM HAS A NICE RING TO IT, DON'T YA THINKI DO YOU LIKE MY IDEA OF MAKING PIRATE ISLAND A FULL-FLEDGED NATION!I IT CAN BE GOVERNMENT AFFILIATED, SO LONG AS I'M KING!!" Others react: "I THINK IT SOUNDS DELUSIONAL!" and "THERE'S NO WAY THEY'D ACKNOWLEDGE A COUNTRY OF CRIMINALS!"

Blackbeard continues "THE NAVY AND GOVERNMENT WOULD COLLAPSE BEFORE THEY ROLL OVER TO A COWARDLY TERRORIST LIKE YOU!!" while taunting Kuzan "BESIDES, I'M KEEPIN' YOU ALIVE TO BE A BARGAINING CHIP AGAINST THEM! C'MON, IT AIN'T NICE TO PISS OFF SOMEONE'S DREAMS!" Kuzan, sweating, declares "I'M A MEMBER OF SWORD!" and "ALSO... YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME..." The crew reacts in shock: "SWORDI THE HELL'S THATI" "WHO ARE NO LONGER RECOGNIZED ON PAPER." "SWORD MEMBERS ARE MARINES..." "HE'S ALREADY GIVEN UP HIS MARINE CODE." "IF HE'S SERIOUS, IT'LL BE A TOTAL BUST. THAT RULES OUT USING HIM, TEACH." "SWORDI" with sound effects like "ドン!!" and "ビキッ!!" A hooded figure with "正" on the back stands in the background.

A man in sunglasses and a dark hat stands before Marine Headquarters, explaining SWORD's structure. "For example, they can fight an emperor like you without authorization... And the Navy can always disavow their actions and cut them loose at any point. Everyone in SWORD has officially resigned their commission. That allows them to ignore certain command protocols..." In a lavish room, Blackbeard lounges with his crew. He laughs wildly, "ZE HA HA HA HA HA! I know which ones I prefer! While others don't hesitate to gnaw on your fingertips! OHHH, I GET IT NOW! SO THAT'S WHY SOME RATS SCURRY AWAY..." A crewmate mutters, "...Still, I ain't budging on this! Let's see how far this plan takes us!" Blackbeard leans forward with a massive grin, declaring, "If things don't go my way, I can at least give the government a bloody nose! After all, the public wouldn't be pleased to hear they lost their precious hero! I doubt the government would write you off that easily!"

Koby runs across a rooftop, panting, "HUFF. HUFF." A voice commands, "YES, SIR! WE CAN'T HAVE HIM SLIPPIN' AWAY AND RUININ' MY FUN! UNTIL THEN, KEEP HIM LOCKED UP!" Koby kicks a door, "CLANG CLANG," shouting, "BUT THAT DOESN'T CHANGE MY DUTY! I MAY HAVE TEAMED UP WITH A PIRATE..." Inside the prison, a figure in a top hat stands among cells as someone yells, "HE'S IN ONE OF THE DEEPER CELLS!! HEY! I'LL LET YOU OUT IF YOU FREE MORIA-SAMA!!" Koby bursts in, "WEEZ! WEEZ! STOP RIGHT THERE, KOBY!!" Panicked, he thinks, "GOSH, WHAT AM I THINKINGI! IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'D SEND ANYONE JUST TO SAVE ME, RIGHTI WHEN DID I START THINKING THE WORLD REVOLVED AROUND MEI I NEED TO GET A GRIP BEFORE I EMBARRACE MYSELF!!" An explosion rocks the port as attackers charge, "GXAAH!! THEY'RE CRAZY STRONG, WATCH OUT! COME IN!! THREE MARINES ARE ATTACKING THE PORT! WHATI! DID THEY JUST SAY THREE MARINESI! THERE'S NO WAY!"

Chaos erupts at the port as a massive clay-like Marine charges forward. Marines shout, "GYAAH!! STOP THEM!! DAMMIT!! OUR GUNS AREN'T WORKING ON THEM!! WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO PUSH US BACK TO THE TOWN CENTERI! WHO THE HECK ARE THESE GUYSI! THEY'RE SO TOUGH!!" A swordsman slashes, "WOAH! I CUT HIS HEAD OFF!" but the giant reforms, growling, "ENOUGH ALREADY!!" Observers panic, "IS HE MADE OF CLAYI! NO WAY... HE'S A LOGIAI! THAT STINGS..." The giant Marine smashes through buildings. Below, Blackbeard pirates watch, one laughing, "GYA HA HA HA, YEAH RIGHT! YOU'VE HAD ONE DRINK TOO MANY!! WHERE'D THAT KOBY GUY GOI! HEY... DID THAT BUILDING JUST MOVEI HMI WOBBLE"

Kujaku stands with a massive whip, scolding, "AND WIPE THAT DIRTY LOOK OFF YOUR FACE! NO BACK TALK!" A pirate reacts, "WHAT'S WITH THIS CRAZY BROADI...AND MOVE YOUR ASS! BE A GOOD BOY..." She cracks the whip, "IS SHE SCOLDING THE BUILDING... WITH A WHIP...I" Smiling confidently she says, "I'D BE HAPPY TO BREAK YOU IN!" and "AND WHY'RE YOU GUYS STARINGI" The pirates gape, "WHA-I A MARINEI WHATI YOU DON'T GET MANY MARINES AROUND HEREI" Kujaku's identity box appears: "NAVY HQ REAR ADMIRAL (SWORD MEMBER) KUJAKU* A TAMER WOMAN WHO ATE THE WHIP-WHIP FRUIT (GRANDDAUGHTER OF GREAT STAFF OFFICER TSURU)" As fighting intensifies, allies yell, "EVERYONE GET READY TO PUMP HIM FULLA LEAD! WE'VE GOT YOU CORNERED NOW, KOBY! WELL, AT LEAST YOU'RE BOTH CUTE. WHY DON'T YOU COME A LIL' CLOSERI" Koby gasps, "HUFF... HUFF... I GUESS THIS IS THE END OF THE LINE... CRAP, I'M SURROUNDED."

Gun barrels erupt with clouds of flowers instead of bullets. Pirates stare in shock as petals fill the air. "WOW.. THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL!!" "WHAT THE HECKI" "...FLOWERSI" "FIRE!!!" A goggled pirate yells in confusion. From the side, a voice calls out, "HIBARI-SAN, IS THAT YOUI!" "THESE MUST BE GP FLOWERS! WHO THE HELL DID THISI!" "WAIT!! WHAT AM I SAYINGI!" "WHY'RE THE GUNS MAKING FLOWERSI!" Hibari, a young woman with headphones and striped leggings, aims a massive bazooka-like weapon. She declares, "I USED FLOWER BULLETS, SO THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO USE THEIR GUNS FOR A WHILE!" and adds firmly, "I AIN'T HERE TO HELP YA, I WAS GOING OUT FOR LUNCH AND JUST HAPPENED TO BE IN THE AREA! AND DON'T GET THE WRONG IDEA!" A label identifies her as "NAVY HQ COMMANDER (MEMBER OF SWORD) HIBARI".

A close-up shows a determined face. "WE'RE ALL SET." "SOUNDS LIKE KOBY'S SAFE TOO." Nearby, someone asks, "PRINCE! WHAT'S YOUR STATUSI" The reply comes, "YO." Prince Grus, a tall man in a fur-trimmed coat and cap, stands with a small clay-like golem figure beside him. He asks, "HOW ARE THINGS ON YOUR ENDI" Below, a panicked voice shouts, "DID THE BUILDINGS MOVE OR SOMETHINGI! WHAT THE HECKI! I DON'T REMEMBER THE TOWN CENTER LOOKING LIKE THIS!" Grus answers calmly, "ALL GOOD. AIM RIGHT FOR THE MIDDLE!" The golem is labeled "GOLEM". A box identifies Grus as "NAVY HQ VICE ADMIRAL (MEMBER OF SWORD) PRINCE GRUS A CLAY MAN WHO ATE THE SQUELCH-SQUELCH FRUIT". The massive clay foot stomps down as the command rings out, "BLAST OFF!!" In the cockpit, Grus and allies grin: "HE HE HE!" "EVERYONE, HANG ON TIGHT!" "PREPARATIONS COMPLETE!"

Pirates react in terror to a massive figure. "YOU'RE KIDDING... IT'S THE LEGENDARY HERO...!!" "THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE, ISN'T HE RETIREDI!" "ISN'T THAT-I!" A flying battleship appears in the sky above the island town. "HMI" "WHA-I" "HUuuuuuUHI!" Vice Admiral Garp stands atop the airborne ship, laughing wildly, "BWA HA HA HA HA!!" Someone screams, "IT'S VICE ADMIRAL GARP!!!" Onlookers panic: "WAIT, IS SOMEONE STANDING ON ITI!" "IS THAT A NAVY BATTLESHIP FLYING UP THEREI!" "I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I'M SEEIN'!!" Garp's ship hurtles downward as voices cry, "THIS IS NO TIME FOR QUESTIONS, LET'S BOOK IT!!!" "CRAP! THERE'S TOO MANY OF US PACKED IN HERE! WE'RE TRAPPED!" "IT'S NO USE! THERE'S NO WAY OUT OF THE CENTER NOW!" "SCREW RUNNING, NOWHERE ON THE ISLAND IS SAFE! WE NEED TO SET SAIL!!" "RUN FOR IT!!"

Garp's enormous fist smashes through the air with the cry "GALAXY FIST!!" The impact cracks the island apart, sending buildings and debris flying in a massive shockwave. "KA-BOOM!!" Screams echo: "UGYAAAAA AAAAAAH!!" "A HERO'S RAMPAGE!!" Garp's face fills a panel as he roars, "LISTEN UP, YOU PIRATE TURDS!! YOU SHOULD'VE THOUGHT TWICE BEFORE YOU KIDNAPPED KOBY!! HE'S THE FUTURE OF THE MARINES! HE'S ALSO MY IRRE-PLACEABLE PROTEGE!! NOT TO MENTION..." Pirates tumble through the destruction. One terrified face stammers, "WHY WOULD YOU GO THIS FAR FOR MEI! BUT... WHY..." The chapter ends with the title "ONE PIECE" and the note "CH.1080 / END BREAK NEXT WEEK".
