Below it, a large underwater illustration shows Hachi, the octopus fishman, swimming with a wide grin while holding a comb to his head. Various fish and sea creatures swim around him in the ocean setting. At the bottom, a caption reads "HACHI'S UNDERWATER STROLL VOL. 2 'TIME TO HEAD HOME'".HachiPage 1On the deck of the Going Merry, the crew discusses their situation. A narration box states, "He can pose as any one of us at any time and threaten Vivi's life." Another concludes, "So to summarize, that okama's a master of disguises." Sanji unwraps the bandage on his arm, revealing an X mark, and declares, "Have them show the mark concealed under these bandages. If they can't do that, then we'll know they're an impostor." Nami adds, "So if you ever doubt another crew member's real identity..." Below deck, the crew reacts with relief. Usopp says, "Whew, that's our Zoro." Luffy exclaims, "Oh, it's Zoro alright." Sanji threatens, "I'LL TURN YOU INTO MINCED MEAT, YOU LITTLE PUNK!" Someone asks, "DOES THAT MEAN THE OKAMA'S ALREADY POSING AS YOU...!I" Nami notes, "Huh, a 2-step identification system... That's almost too clever for someone like you to come up with..."SanjiNamiMonkey D. LuffyUsoppRoronoa ZoroTony Tony ChopperPage 2Carue the duck runs frantically while being chased. A voice yells, "CARUE!" Impact sounds and motion lines fill the panels as Carue is struck. A blonde woman with a topknot shouts, "YOU DON'T NEED TO PUSH YOURSELF! YOU'RE ALREADY TOO INJURED TO RUN!" The large pursuer pants heavily while chasing. Carue quacks in panic. The woman continues, "YOU WON'T ESCAPE FROM MEEEEEE!" as the chase intensifies with more impact effects and motion lines.CarueMiss ValentineMr. 4Page 3The large man roars with a wide-open mouth, "I'M GONNA EAT YOU DEAD MEATS RIGHT UP!" while the woman yells, "HOLD ON LUUUUP!" Carue and the woman flee toward a grand building with stairs as she cries, "CARUE, NOOOO! WE'LL BE CORNERED IF WE TRY TO HEAD UP THE STAIRS!" The man threatens from behind, "JUST LET ME OFF! I'LL FIGHT HIM!" In the next scene, the large man laughs menacingly while a terrified man stammers, "T... NO, YOU'RE GONNA CRASH INTO THE WALLS! WHA- THIS CAN'T BE...!" Carue quacks in alarm as the pursuit continues.CarueMiss ValentineMr. 4Page 4High above Alubarna, Carue rockets upward in a burst of speed and smoke, wings and legs flailing as impact lines and debris explode around him. Vivi clings to his back, hair whipping wildly. Massive Japanese SFX "ドカッ" "ドカドカドカ" and "ドドド" shake the panel. Below, a tiny figure watches from the ground. In the next panel Carue perches on a rooftop ledge, looking down with a simple "HmI" A narration box reads: "HOW COULD A MERE DUCK RUN UP THE WALLS OF ALUBARNA...!I" Carue then spreads his wings wide, leaping off the building with a determined "AH-" and "QUA..." while a lone figure stands atop a distant tower.CarueNefertari ViviPage 5Mr. 2 Bon Clay looms in close-up, face twisted in fury as he yells, "NOW FALL DOWN AND HAVE A TASTE OF MY OKAMA KEN-" while laughing "GAHAHAHA! OH, YOU SILLY LITTLE DUCK!" Carue is struck mid-air; small panels show him slamming into a wall with "ガレッ!!" and exploding impact stars. Vivi shouts in shock, "QUACK!I WHA!I" Mr. 2 demands, "HAND ME THE PRINCESS RIGHT THIS INSTANT, YOU CHEEKY LITTLE DUCK!" Carue soars past with Vivi aboard; she cries out, "CARUE! That was amazing! You actually flew! Even Mr. 2 won't be able to follow after us n-" as Mr. 2 pursues with "ガーン!!"Mr. 2 Bon ClayCarueNefertari ViviPage 6Mr. 2 declares, "NOTHING'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR AN OKAMA!" while striking dramatic ballet poses on a ledge, surrounded by "ガズ!! ガズ!! ガズ!!" effects. A narration box explains, "OKAMA KENPO... RELEVE OF BLOOD, SWEAT, AND TEARS!" Below, chaos erupts as Carue and Vivi crash through the street in a massive dust cloud with huge SFX "ドアアアアア" and "ドアアアアア". Carue lies sprawled on the ground, "THUD..." while Vivi stares in wide-eyed shock from the side.Mr. 2 Bon ClayCarueNefertari ViviPage 7Amid the raging rebellion in Alubarna's streets, Vivi thinks, "IT'LL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND KOUZA IN THE MIDST OF THIS CHAOS! The rebels shouldn't have penetrated the city center yet...!" Carue quacks "QUACK!" as Vivi urges him, "Carue, can you get through this battlefield!I" Mr. 2 suddenly appears overhead in a dramatic leap, shouting "Heeeerrreee's... Mr. 2!" and declaring, "We'll look for Chaka first! Head for the palace!" Carue and Vivi stare up in alarm as the battle rages around them.Nefertari ViviCarueMr. 2 Bon ClayPage 8A massive impact shakes the street as a figure is sent flying. "ヨロッ!I" A duck-like warrior tumbles through the air. Close-ups reveal Wapol's snarling face and gritted teeth. Nami stares in shock, shouting "A STRAY BULLET!I" and "CARUEEE!" Carue dashes forward at full speed, the banner on his back reading "Super Spot-Billed Duck Troops" as he yells "DASH". The street erupts in chaos with motion lines and debris flying everywhere.CarueWapolNamiPage 9Wapol laughs wildly "GAHAHAHA!" while declaring "RUN ALL YOU WANT, BUT YOU AIN'T GETTIN' AWAY FROM ME!"

Wapol looms over the scene with a menacing grin.WapolCarueNamiPage 10Wapol taunts from above "IT'S POINTLESS TRYING TO RUN FROM ME!" and "DIDN'T I TELL YOU!I" Nami clutches her face in distress, replying "I UNDERSTAND!" and "I..." while small ducks quack repeatedly "QUACK!

Wapol roars "IT'S TIME YOU STOPPED GETTING IN MY WAY, YOU STUPID DUCK!" and laughs "GAHAHA HAHAHA!"WapolNamiCarueSuper Spot-Billed Duck TroopsPage 11Carue swings his weapon in a powerful arc, striking Wapol with a loud "DOOF!" Wapol howls in pain "GAHHHH!" Nami watches wide-eyed. In the aftermath, two ducks from the Super Spot-Billed Duck Troops stand together; one quacks "QUACK!" while the other says "YOU SAVED US!" A small "SHAKE" sound effect appears as they react with relief.CarueWapolNamiSuper Spot-Billed Duck TroopsPage 12In the city streets, a massive foot looms as praise rings out: "Well done, Commander Carue. You're a real man...!" Another voice calls, "You can still stop the rebellion, right ViviI" Below, three small panels show duck-like figures shouting "QUACK!" and "ビシッ" while one says "You two can stand down now." Sanji appears with a confident grin, cigarette smoke curling, as he declares "LEAVE THAT OKAMA, TO ME." His hands squeeze tightly around an unseen target with a bold "SQUEEZE!" and the large text "TO ME."SanjiViviCommander CaruePage 13A giant duck-like figure rears up shouting "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU ANYWAYS!I" and "STOP GETTING IN MY WAY!" while smaller panels show panicked cries of "QUACK!" and "I'm fine, just please look after Carue for me!" Vivi dashes forward yelling "GO, VIVI!" as an attacker warns "ACK! SHE'S GETTING AWAY!" with impact sounds "だだっ!!!" and "コクン!!". The scene erupts into chaos as a voice threatens "You stole my sharpshooter's precious goggles... DIE, WHOEVER YOU ARE!" and another screams "THIS IS NOOOOO JOKING MATTER!" amid flying debris and motion lines.ViviCommander CaruePage 14Sanji's powerful kick sends a cloaked figure flying with a massive impact "ギャキキ" and "!!!I". The opponent demands "GIVE THEM BACK. NOW." In close-up panels a grinning man wonders "Hmm... Then maybe you're the rumoured Mr. Prince...!I" while the cloaked figure retorts "So you're one of the Straw-HatsI" and vows "Unlike him, I'm not gonna go down easily...". The sequence ends with broken goggles on the ground and a quiet "No..." as cross-shaped effects mark the damage.SanjiPage 15Sanji stands tall, cigarette in mouth, declaring "A first-rate chef of the seas." and "My name's Sanji." The fight intensifies with dramatic motion as he states "You're not the only one in the criminal business. I'm a chef and a pirate." while the opponent mocks "A mere chef shouldn't be interfering with a criminal organization!" and "A first-rate chef, you sayI Well I'll have you know I'm a first-rate okama!" with heavy impact SFX. Sanji's intense close-up warns "You better not mess with this country." The foe replies "Exactly. An eye for an eye, you sayI" as their furious faces clash.SanjiPage 16At the South-eastern Gates, a voice cries out in alarm, "ARE YOU ALRIGHT, CHOPPER!I" while another shouts "CHOPPER!" amid the ruined landscape. Usopp and a large man in a black hat tumble across the sand in a frantic roll. Usopp exclaims, "You were worrying about ME!I I should be worrying about YOU!" The man replies, "USOPP... GOOD TO SEE YOU'RE ALRIGHT... I'VE COME TO BACK YOU UP!" Usopp demands, "WHERE ARE THEY!I WHERE'S MR. 4 AND HIS PAIR!I" The man warns, "Keep your guard up!" as Usopp answers, "They're still here... Somewhere..."UsoppMr. 4Page 17A massive structure collapses with a thunderous "ゴラァ..." as Usopp and the man in the hat stare in shock, "!!I" The man sweats heavily and declares, "They're below the ground...!" A close-up reveals his dog-like features as narration states, "Ms. Merry Christmas ate the Mogu Mogu Fruit to become a human-mole." Usopp reacts with wide eyes, "What was thatI HuhI I didn't see anyone..." The man continues, "He fights with his dog! As for Mr. 4, he's batter No. 4! The clean-up hitter!"UsoppMr. 4Miss Merry ChristmasPage 18A baseball comes flying with "POP!" and "tic toc" sounds. Usopp dives flat, yelling "WHOA! DUCK!" while the man shouts "WOOF!" Usopp protests, "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKIN' ABOUT!" The man swings a bat as the ball approaches with more "tic toc..." sounds. Usopp stares in confusion, "HuhI" The massive impact erupts in a huge cloud of dust and debris marked "ゴロゥ" and "ン!!" as the man exclaims, "!!I"UsoppMr. 4LassooPage 19ExtraSBS page featuring reader questions to Oda. D: "Okay, there's something I need to ask you about, Odacchi. I was reading WANTED! (Odacchi's one-shot collection) today, and I was wondering, doesn't it seem like a bunch of your characters pick their noses a lotI (P.N. Pleasure)" O: "Yeah, they do. Pick, pick, picky. So you wonder why... Well, doesn't everyone pick their noseI The other mangakas just have their cameras pointed away when it happens. If you don't pick your nose... your boogers would collect up!! Oh dear... another dirty topic. Printing this kind of stuff makes all the female readers cringe. It'll happen again. But the guys laugh their asses off! RightI! Okay, next." D: "To Oda-sensei. Hello! I simply must ask you a very serious question. On page 94 of One Piece Vol. 18, the 'Spiders Cafe' looks an awful lot like the 'Baghdad Cafe', directed by Percy Adlon. Did you use that as inspirationI I really like that movie, so please tell me if it's true." O: "Wow, I'm impressed. 15 years old and you like that movieI That's right. I just loved the atmosphere of that movie so much. But that kind of refined coolness is so out of place in a shounen manga, I was really the only one who knew what it was from. Anyone with good taste should watch it. It'll stick in your heart. 'Baghdad Cafe'." D: "Oda-sensei, I went to a flower shop, and they were selling 'Crocus' flower seeds. Does that have any connection to Crocus-sanI" O: "It means 'trust' in the language of flowers."Page 20No description for this page.
