Kokoro, a large older woman wearing a conductor's hat, holds out a piece of paper and a bottle of alcohol. She smiles broadly, her cheeks flushed, as she says, 'TAKE THIS. IT'S A SIMPLE MAP OF THE ISLAND AND A LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION.' She continues, 'LET THESE GUYS RESTORE YOUR SHIP TO TOP SHAPE. ALSO, WATER SEVEN IS BIG, SO BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LOST.' A small text near her notes she is a 'GOOD PERSON!!' while a sound effect indicates she is slightly drunk. In the next panel, the Going Merry is seen sailing away from the station's wooden platform. From the ship, Nami calls back, 'WE PLAN ON GOING BACK TO WATER SEVEN SOON.' Sanji adds, 'IF WE MEET AGAIN, I'LL DEFINITELY TAKE YOU TO A NICE BAR FOR A FEW DRINKS.' Luffy cheerfully shouts, 'REALLY? I HOPE WE SEE YOU AGAIN!' A narration box at the bottom explains the crew's timeline: 'IT TAKES ABOUT 1 WEEK FOR THE LOG TO RECORD WATER SEVEN, SO YOU WILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO PLAY AROUND.' Page 2: On the deck of the Going Merry, the Straw Hat crew is in high spirits as they depart. Luffy sits atop the sheep figurehead, throwing his arms up in excitement and yelling, 'LET'S GO!! THANKS FOR THE INFO, KOKORO AND CHIMNIE!! GET READY TO SET SAIL, CREW!!' Behind him, Nami, Robin, Zoro, Chopper, Usopp, and Sanji are scattered around the deck, preparing for the journey. Chopper excitedly responds, 'OH!!' Back at the Shift Station, Kokoro stands with her hands on her hips, holding her bottle, and warns them, 'WATCH OUT FOR MARINES THERE!!' Beside her, her young granddaughter Chimney waves enthusiastically with both hands, shouting, 'TAKE CARE!!' Her pet rabbit-cat, Gonbe, sits between them and meows, 'NYA'. The final panel shows a wide view of the Shift Station, a small structure built on tracks over the ocean, growing smaller in the distance as the Going Merry sails away. A narration box reads: 'After visiting this strange train station of the sea...'
