Luffy, Ryugu Palace ### Summary Page 10: The banquet begins with music and spectacle. The announcer presents "Fishman Island's greatest diva... Maria Napole!!" Her voice makes the audience melt away, and Brook cries that it echoes through his very soul. The swing jazz orchestra plays, and the Mermaid Cafe dancers arrive as special guests. The men lose control at their beauty. Someone says, "They say men who gaze upon their beauty might even forget to breathe!!" while another yells, "Calm down!!!" The stage turns into a full celebration, mixing music, dancers, and the island's gratitude toward the Straw Hats. Page 11: Ryugu Palace erupts into a full banquet. Neptune commands, "Bring on the food!!" and "Eat, drink, sing, dance and be merry!!!" Mermaids and fishmen swim and dance through the water-filled hall, trays of food sweep past, and the Straw Hats join the chaos. Luffy eats, the crew drinks, dancers whirl through the hall, and the soldiers and citizens celebrate together. It is the first moment after the battle where the island breathes as one, with no trial, prison, or falling ship in the foreground.
