## One Piece Chapter 17, pages 2-5: HIGH LEVEL, LOW LEVEL - Chapter: 17 - Pages: 2-5 - Characters: Cabaji, Roronoa Zoro, Buggy, Monkey D. Luffy, Nami ### Summary Page 2: Cabaji stands confidently with his sword resting against his shoulder, his checkered scarf blowing in the wind. He taunts his opponent, saying, "SO YOU INJURED YOURSELF AS INSURANCE FOR YOUR REPUTATION... WELL, DON'T WORRY..." He adds, "YOUR WOUNDS ARE SEVERE. THEY'LL MAKE AN EXCELLENT EXCUSE WHEN YOU LOSE." In response, Zoro takes a wide, grounded stance and draws his two remaining swords with a loud "GA-SHEEN!!" sound effect, now wielding three blades. A "SMIRK" sound effect appears next to his confident expression. Zoro fires back, "IT'S THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!" He continues, "IF I LOSE TO THE LIKES OF YOU WHEN MY WOUNDS ARE ONLY THIS LIGHT..." and finishes his declaration, "THEN I MAY AS WELL GIVE UP MY DREAM RIGHT NOW." Cabaji's confident demeanor cracks slightly; he sweats and glares, muttering, "...!!" and "YOU SCURVY DOG!!" A small panel below shows the lower half of Buggy's face, his prominent red nose visible, as he watches the exchange in silence with a "...". Page 3: This page is mostly blank white space, serving as a chapter end page. In the bottom right corner, there is a small, simple sketch of Monkey D. Luffy. He is smiling cheerfully with his arms crossed over his chest. Page 4: Nami calls out, "HEY!" to get Luffy's attention. Luffy looks at her, confused, saying, "HUH?" as Nami points past him with a "FWAP!" sound. She points toward a small building in the background, explaining, "THAT SHACK BEHIND THE RUINS OF THE TAVERN... THAT'S WHERE THEY KEEP THEIR TREASURE." An image of Buggy standing imposingly with his arms crossed appears with a "SHAADOO" sound effect, as Nami continues, "AND BUGGY'S PROBABLY GOT THE MAP OF THE GRAND LINE." Nami looks determined, thinking to herself, "I'LL GET THEIR TREASURE AND MAKE MY ESCAPE. I'VE GOT TO DO IT NOW, WHILE THEY'RE ALL KNOCKED OUT..." She then closes her eyes with a slight smile, telling Luffy, "WHETHER YOU GUYS WIN OR LOSE THIS BATTLE..." Luffy watches her as she finishes, "I DON'T REALLY CARE!" Page 5: Nami points confidently at Luffy, adding a condition: "BUT IF YOU DO GET THAT MAP FROM BUGGY... THEN-- AND ONLY THEN-- WILL I CONSIDER TEAMING UP WITH YOU AGAIN..." She turns and runs off toward the shack with a "TMP TMP" sound, calling back over her shoulder, "GOOD LUCK, BOYS! SEE YA!" Luffy smiles broadly and waves at her, replying, "WOW! THANKS!" The scene shifts back to the fight. Cabaji balances on his unicycle, holding his sword horizontally. Several tops are spinning rapidly on the blade with a "WHRR" sound. He shouts, "RORONOA ZOLO!! HAVE A TASTE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL MY CIRCUS TRICKS!!" In the background, Zoro stands ready in his three-sword stance, watching silently.
