## One Piece Chapter 471, pages 17-20: My Friend - Chapter: 471 - Pages: 17-20 - Characters: Absalom, Lola, Nami, Inuppe, Sanji ### Summary Page 17: Absalom barrels after Nami and Lola, roaring, "Get out of the way!!!" Lola takes the hit and is smashed aside while Nami screams, "Lola!!!" Absalom, exhausted and furious, staggers through the debris and curses, "Damn zombie...!! Making me expend this much effort!!" The impact flings Lola across the room with another crash, and the page lets the comedy drop into danger: Lola is a zombie, but she is also Nami's protector in this moment, and Absalom is willing to hurt her to reclaim his stolen ceremony. The wrecked hall fills with dust, broken stone, and Nami's alarm as the invisible man pushes through everything between himself and the fleeing bride. Page 18: Absalom catches up and reaches for Nami, boasting through his breath, "Oh... you wised up... haa... and stopped running. No matter where you run, you can't escape. I'm an 'invisible man.'" Nami stands her ground instead of fleeing. The memory of Lola's words, "I came to help you, my friend!!" hardens her expression. Absalom snarls, "How dare you do that to Lola." Then Nami raises her Clima-Tact and calls, "Thunder Charge"!! Absalom, still arrogant, opens his arms and says, "That's right, come jump into my arms." Nami's weapon hums with a charged "Fzzzzz" as she prepares not to embrace him, but to strike him for hurting Lola. Page 19: Nami attacks with "Swing Arm"!!! The Clima-Tact slams into Absalom and electricity bursts through him, but the hit does not drop him immediately. Nami admits, "It didn't work...!!" then adds, "But I knew that already..." Absalom's body smokes as he falls backward through the ruined hall, knocked down hard enough to crash across the floor. Nami's expression makes clear that this strike was not based on blind confidence; she already knew from earlier at the bridge that Absalom was tough enough to survive her attacks. Still, the blow creates the opening she needs, and the room pauses around the fallen invisible man. Page 20: The aftermath settles over the ceremonial hall. Nami looks at Absalom's collapsed body and asks herself, "...?" Then she explains what she has learned: "It didn't work at all when we fought at the bridge..." and wonders, "Why?" Nearby, Sanji's zombie counterpart Inuppe understands the reason: "I knew it... he was already past his limits after his fight with that man... That makes sense..." Nami decides not to overthink it. Raising the Clima-Tact, she announces, "Well, whatever!! I won!!" and guesses, "I must have hit a weak spot or something!!" It is a practical, comic victory, but it also matters: Absalom's obsession ends here because Nami stands up, fights for Lola, and claims the win.
