"GAS! HE'S GOING TO..." Nami looks on in sheer terror. Usopp aims his slingshot directly at the gas cloud surrounding Luffy. "NO HARD FEELINGS!!" Luffy's eyes widen in panic. Usopp fires. "FLAME STAR!!" The projectile ignites the gas, causing a massive, violent explosion that completely engulfs Luffy in black smoke and fire. Page 16: The explosion is colossal, sending a massive shockwave and a towering plume of smoke into the night sky. On the ship, Chopper screams in terror, "UWAAAA! WHAT AN EXPLOSION!" The smoke billows out over the rocky shore, obscuring the battlefield. Nami screams out their names, "LUFFY! USOPP!!" As the smoke begins to clear slightly, Luffy is visible amidst the debris, looking battered and scorched. Page 17: Usopp sits on the rocky ground, exhausted and panting. "HEH... HEH..." A flashback sequence begins, showing happier times. Luffy is seen pointing excitedly from the deck of the Going Merry. "I SEE AN ISLAND!! WOW--- AWESOME!! WHAT KIND OF ISLAND IS IT!?" Another panel shows Luffy and Usopp laughing joyously together. "HAHAH HAHAH!!!" The flashback continues with the Going Merry sailing towards an island, as Luffy's voice rings out, "LET'S GO THERE~ GOING MERRY~ FULL SPEED AHEAD~!!" The final panel shows a close-up of the Going Merry's wooden figurehead, with what appears to be tears streaming down its face.
