Luffy, Brownbeard, Monet, Smiley, Vergo, Nico Robin, Smoker, Tashigi, Brokers ### Summary Page 0: The title page reads "Chapter 674 Spectators." The cover story is "Short-Term Focused Serial 20 - 'Echoing Screams in Mermaid Cove'." In the illustration, mermaids look across a bright cove of coral-like buildings and sweeping arches, with small round windows or bubbles framing figures in the distance. It is a cover-story scene rather than the main Punk Hazard plot, but it is useful extra material for the broader world. Page 1: On the ice side near the first and second research facilities, the Nami and Usopp team faces Caesar again. The children call out "MASTER...!!" as Caesar appears, and Sanji realizes, "...M... 'MASTER'...?!!" Nami accuses him immediately: "THEN YOU'RE THE ONE WHO ABDUCTED ALL THESE CHILDREN?!!" and demands, "WHY DID YOU BRING THESE CHILDREN HERE?!! CAN YOU NOT SEE THAT THEY ARE SUFFERING?!!" Sanji warns her to stop because Law said Caesar is "A LOGIA USER WITH A 300 MILLION BELI BOUNTY," but Nami will not back down. Caesar only smiles and says, "SHURORO... I DON'T SEE ANY CHILDREN ASKING TO GO HOME, NOW, DO YOU...?" Page 2: Sanji, in Nami's body, explodes with anger at Caesar. He shouts, "HOW DARE YOU FEED SUCH YOUNG CHILDREN YOUR SICK DRUGS?!!" He understands what the children really want: "THEY ALL JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO THEIR HOMES!!! AND I'M SURE THEIR PARENTS ARE THE SAME WAY!! THEY MUST STILL BE SEARCHING FOR THEIR LOST CHILDREN!! I'LL TAKE THEM OFF THIS ISLAND IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!" Caesar calmly claims that he sees no child asking to leave. The children, overtaken by withdrawal, rush toward him instead and scream, "MASTER!!!" "GIVE US THE CANDY!!!" and "THE CANDY WE ALWAYS HAVE!!!" Usopp tries to hold them back, yelling, "HEY, HOLD IT!! DON'T GO TO HIM!!! DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GO BACK TO THAT LAB?!!" Page 3: Caesar tightens his control over the children, saying, "THAT'S RIGHT, MY CHILDREN... COME BACK TO ME...!!" Sanji shouts, "WAIT, ALL OF YOU!! YOU MUSTN'T GO BACK TO HIM!!!" but the children are already striking out. One child hits Usopp, and Nami cries, "USOPP!!!" Another child knocks Sanji down while Caesar taunts, "DON'T YOU WANT TO GO BACK HOME?!!" Sanji yells through the chaos, "GET OFF ME, COCK-ROACH!!!" and Nami is slammed hard enough to cry out. Even the attempt to rescue the children becomes dangerous because Caesar has turned their pain into obedience. Page 4: Usopp prepares to fight back, but Nami stops him: "NO, USOPP!!! YOU MUSTN'T!!!" Sanji argues while being attacked, "UGH...! GET OFF ME!! WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO NOW BUT STOP THEM BY FORCE?!! THEY'RE SO FAR GONE, THEY'RE HALLUCINATING!! DIDN'T YOU HEAR THAT KID CALL YOU A COCK-ROACH?!" Nami refuses to forget the children behind the violence. She remembers their pleas: "I WANT TO SEE MY DADDY AND MUMMY AGAIN!!" and "PLEASE, LADY, COME BACK FOR US!! PROMISE YOU'LL COME BACK!!" She insists, "THESE CHILDREN... ARE VICTIMS...!!! THEY HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG!!!" Meanwhile the children scream, "SOMEONE UNDO THESE CHAINS!!" "IT HURTS!!" "LET US GO!!" and "GET THESE CHAINS OFF US!!!" Page 5: The children's withdrawal surges beyond the restraints. They roar and pull until their chains tear apart, making Nami and Usopp recoil in shock. Caesar laughs, "SHURORORORO RO!! HOW WONDERFUL!! SO THEY HAVE ALREADY ACHIEVED SUCH LEVELS OF STRENGTH!!" Usopp stares at the broken metal and shouts, "AAAGHHH!! YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING! THEY TORE THE CHAINS APART?!" Caesar has proof that his experiments have made the children physically terrifying. Usopp decides he knows how to deal with gas and yells, "...YOU JUST WAIT, YOU GASSY BASTARD ...!!" He fires "FIREBIRD STAR!!" and tells the children, "GET AWAY, KIDS!!!" Page 6: Usopp's Firebird Star tears toward Caesar, but Caesar only laughs, "SHURORORORO!!" The flame seems to vanish before touching him. Caesar explains, "DID YOU EXPECT ME TO CATCH FIRE AND EXPLODE? YOU WERE AWARE THAT I AM A GAS-BASED FRUIT USER, YES?" He apologizes mockingly: "SO SORRY TO DISAPPOINT YOU... BUT I PUT OUT THE FIRE BEFORE IT EVEN TOUCHED MY BODY!!" Then he reveals the real danger of the Gas-Gas Fruit. "POISON GAS ISN'T THE ONLY GAS IN THE WORLD, YOU KNOW!!" he says. "ALL OF THE AIR THAT SURROUNDS US IS GAS AS WELL!! I CAN EVEN CONTROL THE VERY AIR WITHIN A CERTAIN RANGE AROUND ME!! BY SIMPLY REMOVING THE OXYGEN, I CAN PUT OUT ANY FIRE!! AND IN THE SAME WAY, I CAN PREVENT YOU FROM BREATHING!!" Page 7: Caesar demonstrates his power immediately. He sweeps into range and says, "JUST LIKE THIS!!" Usopp clutches his throat and gasps, "AAHHH...!!" while Sanji cries, "USOPP!!" Usopp realizes too late, "HUH?! WHEN DID HE...?!!" and then "I... CAN'T...!!!" Sanji attacks with "BLACK BALL!!" but Caesar counters with "RAUN!!" and overwhelms him too. Sanji collapses with "UUGH HH.....
