The cover illustration features a man with a pickaxe, Gedatsu, who is upside down, trying to stand on his hands and head while digging into the ground with a loud "GAKIN!!!" sound effect. Another man, Dirt Boss, stands nearby watching him with a confused expression and a question mark bubble. A caption at the bottom reads, "GADUS' LIFE IN BLUE SEA VOL.10 'WHILE DIGGING, THE PRIEST TRIES VERY HARD TO STAND ON THE GROUND.'" The author's name, "Eiichiro Oda", is written at the very bottom. Page 1: A wide view of the sprawling, multi-tiered city of Water Seven is shown with the narration, "FIRST, WHAT AWAITS THEM IN WATER SEVEN...?" On a path near the water, Nami, Luffy, and Usopp are walking. Usopp is struggling to pull a small cart loaded with a massive, heavy sack, making a "GARA GARA GARA..." sound. Nami suggests, "LET'S GO TO THE EXCHANGE." Luffy asks, "WHY NOT JUST GO STRAIGHT TO THE SHIPYARD?" Nami explains, "IT'S NOT GOOD TO RUN AROUND THE ISLAND CARRYING SO MUCH GOLD... THINKING ABOUT IT MAKES ME SWEAT LIKE CRAZY..." She adds, "HM... I AGREE WITH USOPP... BY THE WAY, AFTER WE CHANGE IT INTO CASH, USOPP AND I WILL CARRY IT FOR YOU." Usopp panics, "WHAT IF WE RUN INTO ROBBERS!?" Nami confidently replies, "WE ARE ROBBERS." Luffy argues, "THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM!! YOU'RE CARRYING SO MUCH GOLD IN PUBLIC!!" Nami dismisses his concern, "IT'S NOT LIKE WE'LL GET LESS MONEY IF WE EXCHANGE LATER." Page 2: Nami continues her argument with Luffy, saying, "CORRECT, BECAUSE YOU'LL LOOSE IT." Usopp chimes in, "YUP, THAT'S LUFFY FOR YA!" Offended, Luffy yells, "IS THAT HOW YOU THINK OF ME!!?" Usopp simply replies, "YUP". Nami asks, "ARE YOU SAYING THAT I CAN'T CARRY MONEY?" Luffy retorts, "WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING?" Nami just says, "HM?" They arrive at a stone bridge over a waterway. Nami looks around and asks, "IS THIS IT? THE ENTRANCE TO THE CITY?" Luffy looks confused, uttering, "HM?" They spot a large sign that reads "RENTALBULL SHOP". Nami reads it, "BULL RENTAL?" Luffy asks, "WHAT'S THAT?" Nami wonders, "WHAT IS THAT FOR?" Luffy asks, "WHAT'S A BULL?" Usopp guesses, "DON'T KNOW. IS IT A BULLDOG?" Nami replies, "PROBABLY NOT," as a small dog nearby barks "WOOF". Page 3: Luffy immediately runs toward the shop entrance, shouting, "EXCUSE ME! WE WANT TO RENT A BULL!!" Nami yells after him, "WAIT! FIND OUT WHAT IT IS FIRST!!!" Inside, a man with spiky hair, glasses, and a patterned shirt greets them, "WELCOME. RENTING A BULL?" He asks, "HOW MANY PEOPLE?" Luffy holds up three fingers and says, "THREE!" The shop owner explains, "THERE ARE 3 TYPES: YAGARA, RABUKA, AND KING... WHAT KIND DO YOU WANT?" Nami suggests, "IF THERE ARE THREE OF YOU... HOW ABOUT 2 YAGARA?" Luffy, misunderstanding the situation, says, "OKAY. PLEASE MAKE IT EXTRA CRISPY." Usopp yells at him in exasperation, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?" Page 4: The shop owner laughs heartily at Luffy's comment. "WHAT!? YOU CAME HERE FOLLOWING THE LOG!?" He continues, "WOW~~ THAT'S AMAZING. THOUGH THAT PROBABLY MEANS... THAT YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT BULLS ARE." He points out towards the canal. "LOOK. THOSE ARE BULLS. YAGARA BULLS TO BE EXACT." Nami observes, "THEY ARE EVERYWHERE IN THE CITY." The owner explains, "THEY ARE SPECIAL MARINE CREATURES THAT SWIM ON THE WATER." A wide shot shows the bustling canals of Water Seven, filled with people riding in boats pulled by large, seahorse-like creatures. The owner continues, "THIS IS A WATER CITY, SO THERE ARE MORE WATER CANALS THAN THERE ARE DRY ROADS. THUS BULLS ARE CRUCIAL TO THE CITIZENS' EVERYDAY LIFE. IT IS ALSO NECESSARY FOR TOURISTS TO MOVE AROUND THE CITY." Page 5: Nami asks, "DO YOU USE THE FISH TO PULL THE BOAT?" The owner clarifies, "NO. YOU MOUNT THE BOATS ON THEM. IT WORKS VERY MUCH LIKE THE HORSES ON DRY LANDS. THEY WORK LIKE HORSE CARRIAGES." He leads them to a dock area. "THIS IS MY BULL POOL. OKAY. COME AND GIVE IT A TRY. 2 YAGARA-BULLS WILL COST YOU 2000 BERI." Luffy looks over the edge at the Yagara Bulls swimming in the pool. Nami coos, "SO CUTE~" The bulls make a "NI NI" sound. Luffy remarks, "THEY LOOK LIKE HORSES." Suddenly, one of the bulls reaches up and licks Luffy's face with a loud "SLURP". Luffy recoils, yelling, "WAH!" The owner laughs, "IT LIKES YOU! I'LL GIVE YOU THAT ONE." Luffy wipes his face, shouting, "STUPID BULL!!!" while the bulls continue to say "NI NI". Page 6: Luffy holds up the massive sack of gold and asks, "CAN IT CARRY THIS? THIS IS HEAVY." The owner assures him, "NO PROBLEM. IT'S VERY STRONG AND CAPABLE OF TRANSPORTING ANYTHING. WHAT'S IN THAT SACK?" Luffy bluntly answers, "GOLD!" The owner...
