Page 7: Out at sea on a Marine ship, a voice urgently calls out, 'MISS HINA! THERE'S STILL AN ENEMY LOOSE!' Hina, standing calmly, remarks, 'This is really ticking me off. Hina raving mad.' An unseen person retorts, '...Hmph. At what, your own incompetence?' Hina coolly replies, 'No, not at all.' Suddenly, a masked pirate wielding a sword lunges at her from behind, screaming, 'I AIN'T GOIN' DOWN 'TIL I TAKE AT LEAST ONE OF YOU DOWN WITH ME!' Hina effortlessly dodges with a quick 'SIDE STEP!' As the pirate stumbles forward, Hina passes her arm straight through his midsection. With a metallic clank, an iron ring forms around the pirate's waist and arms, binding him. The pirate yells in shock, 'DAMNNN! HER ORI-ORI FRUIT POWERS JUST GIVE YOU THE THRILLS!' Nearby, Jango and Fullbody strike dramatic poses and cheer her on, 'YES, SAY IT! SAY THE FINISHER CATCH-PHRASE!' Hina obliges, stating, 'Everything that passes through my body... will be locked!' Page 8: The masked pirate struggles against the heavy iron ring binding him, grunting, 'UGH!' Hina, adjusting her glove, says, 'Mad at you, Smoker.' The scene shifts to Smoker, who is sitting on the deck of his ship, smoking two cigars and holding a den den mushi receiver. The bound pirate falls to the deck behind Hina, crying out, 'GAH! WHAT'S WITH THIS... IRON LOCK!?' Over the den den mushi, Smoker replies, '...? Sounds like you're too suspicious of me...' Hina lights a cigarette and says, 'Well... Even though the Straw-Hats got away,' Smoker's voice finishes the thought, 'You sound perfectly happy...' Hina pauses, a slight smile on her face, and softly reacts, '...Oh!?' Page 9: The scene transitions to the desert kingdom of Arabasta. A wide view shows the sea meeting the sandy shores, with birds cawing in the sky. In the bustling city of Alubarna, citizens are gathered, discussing the recent events. One person asks, 'Who do you reckon the princess was speaking to?' The crowd murmurs with varying opinions. 'We may not be much, but we have to try,' one says. Another jokes, 'That's rich, coming from you!' Someone else adds, 'The rest of us need to respond to her love!' and another agrees, 'That's right!' Despite the uncertainty of who Princess Vivi was addressing in her speech, the general sentiment is positive. '...Who knows? What does it matter, whoever it was,' a citizen remarks. 'Yeah, she still said all those wonderful things.' The city is filled with a renewed sense of hope and chatter. Page 10: Across the desert, the Super Spot-Billed Du...
