In a mountainous, outdoor setting, Zoro is sitting by a campfire. He is wearing a shirt with a clover design that says "Follow" and is holding a tennis racket in his left hand. Across the fire from him sits a large, round creature that appears to be a bear with a lion's mane, wearing a track jacket. The creature is happily eating a cooked fish on a stick. More fish are roasting over the campfire between them. Page 1: A massive explosion violently rocks the town, sending a huge plume of smoke and debris high into the air with a loud "OOOOO" sound effect. Wooden planks and fragments of buildings are blasted outward from the epicenter. In the town below, several townspeople, including a man wearing a striped shirt, watch the destruction unfold in stunned silence. The scene then cuts to a close-up of a fist dripping with blood, the drops falling to the ground with a "Pota... Pota..." sound. A shocked townsperson stares wide-eyed at the sight, exclaiming, "WHA!?" Page 2: Bellamy's face is violently distorted as a devastating punch connects, sending blood flying and creating a massive impact with a "DOOOOM" sound effect. Below, Luffy stands calmly in the street, adjusting his straw hat, while the townspeople watch the aftermath in stunned silence. Sarquiss, sweating and panicked, yells out, "CUT IT OUT, BELLAMY! STOP ACTIN' STUPID AND PUT ON YOUR USUAL SHOW FOR US! AREN'T YOU THE BIGSHOT ROOKIE WORTH 55 MILLION!? BELLAMY!" A shot shows Bellamy completely knocked out, face-planted into the cratered ground. A terrified townsperson stammers, "Ha... C... come on... T-this isn't funny, Bellamy...! You're just jokin' around, right...!?...Say something!" Page 3: The townspeople begin to panic as the reality of the situation sets in. One man realizes, "THOSE TWO GUYS FROM DURING THE DAY... Ah..." Another yells, "Mnf- MAJOR TROUBLE!" as a piece of paper flutters down from the sky. A townsperson catches it—it's Luffy's wanted poster, clearly showing his bounty of 100,000,000 Berries. The man screams, "BOTH HAVE BOUNTIES HIGHER THAN YOU, BELLAMY!" Sarquiss looks on in absolute shock, speechless. Another pirate mutters, "I told you so, didn't I..." Sarquiss stumbles backward, yelling "AGH!" and "GAHH!" in disbelief. Luffy, looking intensely serious, demands, "GIVE IT BACK! THE GOLD!" Page 4: Total panic ensues as the townspeople flee in terror, screaming, "AAAAA AAAGH HHHHH HHHHH! HE'S THE REAL DEAL! HE BEAT BELLAMY!" They run frantically away from the scene, arms flailing. A wide shot shows the town buildings as the screams echo through the streets. Meanwhile, at the coast, Shoujou's ape crew members are busy repairing their ship. They chant "UHO! UHO!" and call out instructions to each other, "FIX THE SHIP!" and "RAISE THE BOW!" The sound of hammering, "Ton ten kan," fills the air as they work diligently on the vessel. Page 5: Zoro, carrying a large stack of wooden planks, talks to Nami. She asks, "What!? Don't fight, fight... Don't go, go... Make up your mind, woman. So why didn't you go?" Zoro replies, "But they beat you too. A fight that would only leave pity, is too painful to bother. Beat me? Those guys weren't even blocking our way." Nearby, Chopper in his heavy point form carries planks, calling out, "We need some more planks over here!" Sanji replies, "Ok! Thanks, racoon." Chopper angrily retorts, "I'M A REINDEER!" Sanji then yells at Zoro, "HEY, MARIMO-MAN! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE SAYING TO NAMI!?" Zoro snaps back, "SHUT UP! GO AWAY, YOU'RE IN MY WAY!" Sanji asks, "Are you an idiot?" and Zoro replies, "The heck's that supposed to mean?" Back in town, Luffy walks calmly away from the defeated Bellamy, carrying a large sack over his shoulder. He says, "Found it, found it!" Page 6: Sarquiss, enraged and desperate, charges at Luffy with a large kukri knife, screaming "GAAAHHH!" Luffy stops walking and looks back over his shoulder, asking, "Where...?" Sarquiss yells, "COME AT ME THEN! THERE'S NO WAY A DAYDREAMIN' IDIOT LIKE YOU CAN BEAT US! HEY! WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOIN', STRAW-HAT!?" Another pirate tries to stop him, shouting "STOP IT, SARQUISS!" but Sarquiss insists, "H-HEY, YOU! I'M STILL STANDIN', AIN'T I!?" Sweating profusely, Sarquiss tries to convince himself, "It... It must've been just a fluke!" Luffy turns fully to face him, pointing a finger s...
