## One Piece Chapter 689, pages 5-6: An Island That Seems Not to Exist - Chapter: 689 - Pages: 5-6 - Characters: Brownbeard, Caesar Clown, Caesar Clown's Subordinates, Vegapunk ### Summary Page 5: The soldiers laugh because they do not understand Brownbeard's slurred words. They shout, "DAHAHA HAHAHAHA!! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, BROWNBEARD!!!" "SPEAK CLEARLY!!" and "WHAT SORT OF INCAN-TATION ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY!!" Brownbeard tries again, "PINNEY... GIGS!!" and someone mocks, "MIGS--" while another asks, "WHAT THE-- MY MOUTH WON'T MOVE WHY--!?" Brownbeard realizes the problem: "THEY'RE ALL IDIOTS, SO THEY HAVEN'T REALIZED!! THEY DON'T KNOW THAT HE'S JUST TRYING TO SAY 'GUINEA PIGS'!!" Caesar has secretly drugged him too, explaining, "IT'S A MUSCLE RELAXANT. YOU CAN FEEL THE POWER SLIPPING AWAY FROM YOUR MOUTH AS WELL AS YOUR WHOLE BODY, RIGHT? SHURORORORO." Brownbeard collapses toward Caesar's dragon-like form as the crowd continues laughing. Caesar is not only lying to his men; he is physically silencing the one subordinate trying to warn them. Page 6: Caesar twists the betrayal even further. He says, "OH, THAT'S RIGHT... I JUST REMEMBERED, BROWNBEARD... ABOUT YOUR FORMER UNDERLINGS... I ABANDONED THEM!" Brownbeard, barely able to speak, howls, "YOU!!! YOU ROTTEN BASTARD... HOW DARE YOU... MY MEN!!" Caesar laughs in front of the watching soldiers and adds another confession: "AND WHILE WE'RE AT IT... THERE'S ONE MORE THING. FOUR YEARS AGO, THE WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION THAT BROUGHT ALL THE SOLDIERS HERE TO THE BRINK OF DEATH..." Then he says it plainly: "THAT WAS MY DOING." Brownbeard realizes the scale of the lie and screams, "SO IT WASN'T VEGAPUNK...!? YOU... YOU'RE THE ONE WHO DID THAT TO THEM!! BUT YOU PRETEND TO HAVE SAVED THEM...!?" The page reveals the foundation of Caesar's cult. He poisoned the island, blamed Vegapunk, then posed as the savior of the victims he created.
