"That's it! Why didn't I realize sooner!?" he exclaims. "If it can turn into mist, then that means it can melt! Luffy! That guy's candlewax can be melted with fire! No matter how hard his wax is, wax is still wax!" Usopp gives a confident thumbs-up, while Karoo quacks in agreement. "And the same goes for them too! Master Brogy too! It hasn't been that long since they hardened up! We can still save them!" Mr. 3, realizing his weakness has been exposed, yells angrily, "Don't tell them!" Usopp smirks, "Yes, really." Luffy's face lights up with hope and surprise. "Really!?" he asks. Page 10: Mr. 3 quickly regains his composure and laughs menacingly. "Fufu...! Even if you know, you still won't be able to win nor have enough time to save your friends!" He points to the wax structure where Zoro, Nami, and Vivi are trapped. "Right now, they're painfully struggling inside their minds with the last bit of consciousness they have, all the while edging closer to death! You only have about 30 seconds before their hearts completely stop beating!" Usopp, undeterred, pulls back his slingshot, aiming a flaming pellet. "We won't even need 30 seconds! I'll save you now! Certain Kill Flame S..." Before Usopp can fire, Mr. 5 suddenly appears and blows into the chamber of his flintlock pistol. "Breeze Breath Bomb!" he shouts, unleashing a massive explosion that engulfs Usopp.
