DON'T TAKE YOUR EYES OFF OF DOFLAMINGO," he says. "HE'S A SHICHIBUKAI AND THE CURRENT KING OF DRESSROSA." He tells them to "CONTACT SAKAZUKI AND TELL HIM TO MOBILIZE THE ADMIRALS," because "THINGS COULD GO FROM BAD TO WORSE, AND FAST..." Kuzan explains why Doflamingo is not like other pirates: "BUT HE'S DIFFERENT FROM THE SNAKE PRINCESS OF THE KUJA. A PIRATE WHO SETS HIMSELF APART FROM THE OTHERS IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE..." He calls the situation "THE MOST DIRE" that Sakazuki and the new Marine Headquarters may have faced. When the Marines protest, "HEY!! YOU GUYS!! THE FACT THAT WE MET..." Kuzan silences them with a finger to his lips. "IT'S A SECRET THAT WE MET YOU, GOT IT!!" they understand. One asks, "...WHAT WAS IT AGAIN," and another answers, "I FORGOT. WELL, WHAT-EVER." Page 9: That night, out at sea, the Sunny pushes through the darkness. The crew worries that no pursuit has appeared: "IT'S ALMOST DAWN, AND NOBODY'S SHOWN UP!!" Someone says, "THINK THEY'VE LOST OUR TRAIL!!?" and another imagines the scale of the search: "HOW MANY THOUSANDS WOULD BE IN THE SEARCH PARTY!? HOW MANY TENS OF THOUSANDS!!?" Law's threat to Doflamingo still hangs over them. Brook sums up the terrible choice: "RESIGN FROM THE SHICHIBUKAI OR TANGLE WITH AN EMPEROR... WHAT A CHOICE..." Usopp is frightened but practical: "NO NEED TO WORRY, SINCE WE GOT THIS ARMOR AND THESE HELMETS FROM KIN." Others insist, "THAT'S RIGHT, THAT IT IS!!" and "THERE'S NO WAY IT CAN REST EASY!!" Luffy and the others are distracted by Kin'emon and Zoro sparring. Kin'emon yells, "YOU! DRAW YOUR WEAPON...!!" Zoro snaps back, "AND FACE ME!!" while someone asks, "ISN'T DOING THIS ON THE SHIP A BIT DANGEROUS?"
