Usopp sits on the left side, looking up at a large, complex telescope-like machine with gears and pulleys. On the right side, Nami stands with her hand on her hip, Karoo the duck stands next to her, and Zoro sits on the ground eating. The text reads, "CHAPTER 140 'CASTLE-DWELLING SNOW'", "One Piece", and "On a perfect day". Page 1: The right half of the title spread, presented in full color. It shows the same scene as the previous page: Usopp sitting on the left looking at the machinery, while Nami, Karoo, and Zoro are on the right side among large tropical plants. The text reads, "CHAPTER 140 'CASTLE-DWELLING SNOW'", "One Piece", and "On a perfect day". Page 2: A small single panel shows Igaram wearing a curly wig and a dark dress with white trim. His face is visibly swollen and bruised. He touches his cheek with a confused expression and asks, "IS IT JUST ME OR IS MY FACE SWOLLEN A BIT...?" A sound effect reads "Boing". Page 3: The story begins with Luffy yelling enthusiastically, "PLEASE! JOIN MY CREW!" In a stone room inside the castle, Sanji and Luffy sit at a table while Kureha sits across from them. Nami is resting in a bed in the background. Luffy says, "COME ON, GRANNY!" Kureha looks at him and says, "SO YOUR NAME'S LUFFY..." Luffy replies, "YEAH." Suddenly, Kureha delivers a powerful kick directly to Luffy's face, sending him flying backward with a loud "OOF!" and "BAM!" Kureha yells angrily, "WELL WATCH YOUR DAMN MOUTH, LUFFY! I'M STILL IN MY YOUNG AND HIP 130S!" Sanji watches with a sweatdrop and thinks, "DAMN, THAT'S ONE STRONG GRANNY..." Page 4: Kureha continues to scold Luffy, "WHAT A WASTE OF MY YOUTH. I'VE GOT NO INTEREST IN THE SEAS AT ALL. YOU WANT ME TO BE A PIRATE? DON'T BE RIDICULOUS!" Luffy, recovering from the kick, insists, "OH, THAT DOESN'T MATTER! JUST COME ADVENTURING WITH US, GRANNY!" Kureha gets furious again, yelling, "DIDN'T I JUST TELL YOU TO WATCH YOUR MOUTH!?" Meanwhile, Chopper peeks out from behind a door, thinking, "SO THEY'RE PIRATES...!" Luffy notices Chopper and points at him, saying, "AH- AH- AH-". A voice bubble says, "I LOVE PIRATES...!" Chopper panics, screaming "GYAAAAAAAH!" as he runs away. Sanji immediately gives chase, yelling, "WAIT, REINDEER-MEAT! HEY, STOP RIGHT THERE, YOU BRATS!" Page 5: Luffy and Sanji run down the hallway, but Kureha is chasing them, throwing knives. She yells, "NOT IF I CAN HELP IT! I'LL SKIN AND EAT YOU ANNOYING BRATS ALIVE!" Sanji panics, "AGHHH! IT'S THAT OLD HAG AGAIN!" Luffy adds, "AND SHE'S CARRYING KNIVES!" Sanji calls back to the room, "REST EASY, NAMI! I'LL BE BACK IN A JIFFY WITH A DELICIOUS REINDEER STEAK!" Back in the room, Nami lies in bed and sighs, "I'D RATHER HAVE SOME PEACE AND QUIET THAN REINDEER MEAT..." She then hears the sound of wind blowing, "BLOWWWW". She notices a cold draft and wonders, "IS THAT... SNOW INSIDE THE CASTLE? BRR, IT'S COLD. I BETTER GO SHUT THE DOOR." As she starts to get up, Chopper appears in the doorway and tells her, "STAY PUT AND REST!" Page 6: Chopper walks into Nami's room and explains, "THE DOCTRESS' MEDICINE IS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE SO IT'S NATURAL FOR YOUR FEVER TO BE ALMOST GONE. BUT EVEN SO, YOUR BODY HASN'T COMPLETELY FOUGHT OFF THE BACTERIAL INFECTION YET." He adds, "YOU STILL HAVE A FEVER, YOU KNOW!" Nami replies, "NO I DON'T, IT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL GONE NOW." Chopper insists, "THE ANSWER'S STILL A NO. JEEZ... THAT'S WHY YOU STILL NEED TO STAY PUT AND RECEIVE ANOTHER DOSE OF ANTIBIOTICS. OTHERWISE-" Nami smiles warmly and says, "THANKS." Chopper pauses, "HM?" Nami continues, "YOU WERE THE ONE WHO NURSED ME BACK TO HEALTH, RIGHT?" Chopper suddenly gets extremely flustered. He does a happy, wiggling dance with a huge smile while yelling insults, "S-SHUT UP! I DON'T NEED TO HEAR ANY WORDS OF THANKS FROM A HUMAN! DON'T MESS WITH ME, Y'HEAR!?" Nami sweatdrops and thinks, "CAN'T HIDE HIS EMOTIONS AT ALL, HUH." Page 7: Sanji and Luffy are running through the castle corridors. Sanji notices the temperature, "SOMETHING'S STRANGE ABOUT THIS CASTLE... NOT ONLY IS IT FREEZING IN HERE, BUT THERE'S SNOW EVERYWHERE." Luffy replies, "OH..." Sanji shivers violently, "AHH! YOU'RE RIGHT, IT IS COLD!" Luffy yells back, "YOU'RE REALIZING THAT NOW!?" They look out over a balcony into the massive interior of the castle, which is completely covered in snow and ice. Sanji observes, "LOOK, THIS ENTIRE CASTLE'S COVERED WITH SNOW... THE DOORS OF ALL THE UNUSED ROOMS ARE FROZEN OVER TOO!" Page 8: Luffy and Sanji continue to flee from Kureha, who is throwing weapons at them and screaming, "DIE, YOU TWERPS!" Sanji yells, "AGHH!" and tells Luffy, "LUFFY, GIVE UP ON TRYING TO RECRUIT HER! SHE'S CLEARLY NO DOCTOR! SHE'S JUST A DERANGED LUNATIC!" Back in the bedr...
