## One Piece Chapter 66, pages 14-15: THE STIFLED SPEAR - Chapter: 66 - Pages: 14-15 - Characters: Gin, Sanji, Monkey D. Luffy, Baratie cooks, Krieg Pirates ### Summary Page 14: Gin sits slumped on the wooden deck, his head bowed and his body trembling as he coughs violently from the lingering effects of the poison gas. He mutters in disbelief, "KRIEG LOST...?" "AS IF THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN..." "HE'S THE SUPREME RULER OF THE SEAS...!". Around him, the surviving Krieg Pirates are in a state of panic and despair. One points out the undeniable truth: "SAY ALL YOU WANT BUT TAKE A LOOK FOR YOURSELF." "HIS PRIZED ARMOUR IS IN PIECES!". Gin clutches his head in his hands, coughing again, his worldview shattered. "HE'S... THE ONLY MAN... I EVER ADMIRED...!" "I BELIEVED... HE WAS THE STRONGEST...!". Suddenly, the water erupts as Sanji bursts to the surface, gasping loudly for air. He drags the unconscious, soaked body of Luffy onto the wreckage. The Baratie cooks immediately panic upon seeing Sanji moving. They yell out warnings: "H-HEY YOU! DON'T MOVE OR THE POISON WILL..." "WHAT WAS IT AGAIN? DOES IT SPREAD IF YOU MOVE?" "HOW'D I KNOW!? BUT IN ANY CASE MOVING YOUR BODY RIGHT NOW CAN'T BE A GOOD THING!" "YOU NEED TO LIE DOWN AND REST!". Page 15: Sanji hauls Luffy's limp, soaked body onto the wooden wreckage, panting heavily from the exertion and his own injuries. He gently pats Luffy's head, saying softly, "HEY," "DON'T YOU DIE ON ME NOW." As Sanji looks down at the unconscious boy, a series of memories flash through his mind, reflecting on the intense battle and the unwavering resolve he just witnessed. He thinks to himself, "ALL OF THEM.." "IF I WERE TO TAKE EVEN ONE STEP BACK RIGHT NOW," "I GET THE FEELING THAT I'D NEVER BE ABLE TO RETURN BACK TO WHERE I'M STANDING RIGHT NOW." The flashback panels show key moments that shook Sanji's worldview: Luffy pointing fiercely and declaring, "THIS AIN'T THE PLACE FOR ME TO DIE!"; Luffy yelling, "IT'S SIMPLE! JUST THROW YOUR AMBITIONS AWAY!"; and a moment of Sanji's own shocked realization, accompanied by the words "AREN'T I STRONGEST!?". These memories solidify Sanji's understanding of the true strength and conviction required to survive and pursue one's dreams on the Grand Line.
