In the foreground, a young horned boy named Loki sits on the ground wearing a large horned helmet, secretly sketching in a notebook with a smiling face doodle and Japanese text. A large snake with sharp teeth watches him closely. Behind Loki stands a smiling girl named Ida in a dark coat holding a wicker basket, her finger to her lips in a shushing gesture. A fierce lion-like creature with a mane appears in the background along with trees and falling snow.

The young man rages, 'IT ISN'T! THIS IS LIFE CHANGING NEWS! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN RAISED AS A CELESTIAL DRAGON. THESE PAST 16 YEARS WERE A COMPLETE WASTE!! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND HOW ANGRY THAT MAKES ME?!' The winged woman replies, 'THAT'S IRRELEVANT WHEN IT COMES TO THE BOND BETWEEN A PARENT AND CHILD!!!' He yells, 'CAN YOU PROVE THAT? YOU ARE THE CHILD OF KING LEUVEN!! THAT'S A FACT!! WHAT ARE YOU EVEN SAYING?!'

"...THE KING IS DEAD..." Brook clutches his head. "WE SHOULDN'T GIVE YOU TOO MUCH OF A SHOCK, COMMANDER..." "I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH YOU REMEMBER, COMMANDER..." "UGH..." "NO... I WANT YOU TO TELL ME..."

Brook continues listening as reports come in. "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE THEY GO NOW, THEY'LL BE REFUGEES NOW." "MOST CITIZENS HAVE ALREADY FLED THE COUNTRY..." "...BOARDING A GOVERNMENT SHIP" "AN EYEWITNESS SAW PRINCESS SHURI..." A blonde woman reacts with shock. "AAAH!!" Brook's eyes widen in the next panel.

"...PUT MY FAITH IN PRINCESS SHURI ONCE MORE?!" one cries with tears. "DO YOU THINK IT'S OKAY IF I..." Brook's skeletal face appears in shadow with a determined expression.

In the next panel Brook glances back as another voice declares, "IF SHE IS A VICTIM THEN..." The scene shifts to a close-up of Brook's skull face, tears streaming, shouting "PRINCESS SHURI...!!! I WANT TO SAVE HER!!!" Princess Shuri watches with a concerned expression, asking, "IS THAT JUST 'CAUSE I'M THEIR DAUGHTER?" From the side a massive furry figure and several round black creatures stand ready as Brook cries out, "LEND ME YOUR STRENGTH!!!" and "PLEASE, EVERYONE..." A large sound effect "がばっ!!" erupts in the center.

A RADICAL BEAM..." while a woman with light hair declares, "I WONDER IF LIGHTNING WILL DO THE TRICK!!" and a large horned warrior growls, "LET'S HURRY AND SMASH THAT ICE!! NO NEED TO BE SO FORMAL!!" The chef adds, "IT SEEMS LIKE EXPLOSIVES DON'T WORK, WHAT SHOULD I DO?!" Brook's skull face appears in shock with "WHOA!!!" as a cloaked swordsman dashes forward in a flurry of motion lines, someone shouting "HEY, BROOK, WAIT UP!!" Nearby a sign reads "WALRUS SCHOOL CAFETERIA" while a giant complains, "HUFF... HUFF... THEN... THAT CRAZY NEW GUY IS ELBAF'S ENEMY, RIGHT?!" and another figure yells "I'M STUFFED!!!" amid "AWWAAAH!!!"

Monkey D. Luffy appears with a fierce grin, declaring "HE'S MY ENEMY TOO!!! I'M OVERFLOWING WITH POWER!!" while an explosion erupts nearby. A long-haired figure questions, "THOU ART IGNORANT OF THE REASON THEN?" as Luffy retorts amid debris. The long-haired figure continues, "THE WORLD GOVERNMENT SURE PLAYS DIRTY...!!" and "HUFF... HUFF... TARGETING KIDS...!!" while offering, "SHALL I ENLIGHTEN THEE...?" In a close-up the long-haired figure states, "...WERE DEFEATED IN A BID TO RESCUE THEIR CHILDREN. 800 YEARS AGO, THE GIANT RACE..."

Luffy and the long-haired figure argue heatedly, with Luffy yelling "HEY, DUMBASS...!!!" and the other retorting "YOU PRICK! WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY?!" A massive impact "バチンズ" shakes the panel as Luffy shouts "GET OFF OF ELBAF!!!" The long-haired figure explains, "A FEW CENTURIES IS NOT NEARLY ENOUGH TO CHANGE THE NATURE OF A RACE!!" and "800 YEARS AGO! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?!" while scenes show children being taken and giants kneeling. The figure concludes, "...WHEN THINE OFFSPRING ARE TAKEN. WITHOUT FAIL, THINE PEOPLE INEVITABLY BEND THE KNEE..." and "IGNORANCE OF THE SIGNIFICANCE OF WHAT IS OCCURRING IS IRRELEVANT. HISTORY ALWAYS REPEATS ITSELF. 'TIS ALREADY TOO LATE. THOU ART ALL SLAVES OF MU!!" The page ends with "ONE STRIKE!!" and the chapter close.
