## One Piece Chapter 684, pages 1-3: Stop It, Vegapunk - Chapter: 684 - Pages: 1-3 - Characters: Smoker, Vergo, G-5 Marines ### Summary Page 1: In the S.A.D. production room, Smoker and Vergo finally stand face to face. Smoker looks around the machinery and says, "WHAT'S THIS? THIS DANGEROUS ROOM...!!" The narration marks the confrontation plainly: "THE TWO BIG PLAYERS MEET!" Vergo answers without explaining: "YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW...!!" Smoker, seeing the man who betrayed G-5 and the Marines, tells him, "VERGO. I DON'T WANT MY MEN TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT YOU... THEY ADORE YOU, AS IF YOU WERE A PARENT TO THEM. AND THIS BETRAYAL..." Vergo only says his name: "...SMOKER!!!" The emotional weight is clear before the fight begins. Smoker is not only confronting an enemy; he is confronting the person whose betrayal would break the faith of his own Marines. Page 2: Vergo coldly dismisses Smoker's concern. He says, "I THINK IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT. I ENCOUNTERED THEM A LITTLE WHILE AGO." Smoker flares up: "WHAT DID YOU DO!!!" Vergo starts, "WELL..." and Smoker attacks before he can finish, shouting, "VERGO!!!" His jitte slams into Vergo with a massive impact. Vergo addresses him with mocking familiarity: "YOU'RE ALL HEATED UP NOW, AREN'T YOU, SMOKER-KUN...!! DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE REALLY WORRIED ABOUT THOSE REJECT MARINES..." Smoker answers as base commander rather than as a detached officer: "AS BASE COMMANDER, I'M QUITE FREE TO ACT AS I PLEASE NOW." He does not argue about whether G-5 are rejects. He simply makes clear they are his men, and Vergo has crossed that line. Page 3: Vergo arms himself for the duel, drawing a massive projectile-like weapon and stating the reason no witness can leave: "AT ANY RATE, I'VE NO CHOICE BUT TO ELIMINATE ALL OF YOU WHO KNOW MY TRUE IDENTITY." The two men clash amid the pipes and tanks. Vergo's attack tears through the room with a huge explosion, while Smoker twists into smoke and counters, the impacts ringing out with "CLANG," "BOOOM," and "FWIP!!" The fight is not casual punishment anymore; Vergo is openly trying to erase everyone who can expose him. Smoker, meanwhile, uses his smoke body to move through the production room, turning his anger over G-5 into direct combat.
