Chapter 308 summary
The Donut Race continues under the hot sun as the Cutie Wagon enters the Long Coral Area but gets pushed backward by strange currents while the Barrel Tiger follows behind. Foxy rides a toad on shore and releases thick white smoke to blind the Barrel Tiger, but Nami steers the crew safely through the coral maze using the currents. The Barrel Tiger then flies over a massive whirlpool with an Impact Dial and ignores Foxy's fake signs and fake goal. Usopp knocks down a bamboo tree to block the Cutie Wagon, yet Porche counters with rose shuriken that punch holes in the Barrel Tiger. Both boats race side by side toward the real goal as the Foxy Pirates cheer from the sidelines. Foxy appears on a nearby patch of land and fires his Noronoro Beam directly at the Barrel Tiger, leaving Nami staring back in shock.
