## One Piece Chapter 617, pages 4-6: Major Incident on Coral Hill - Chapter: 617 - Pages: 4-6 - Characters: Hody Jones, Neptune, Roronoa Zoro ### Summary Page 4: Hody quietly orders, "Move it..." and places his hand against a massive palace wall. With a sharp crack, his grip digs into the structure, and then he tears the wall apart with a monstrous bite-like force. The sound effect note explains the attack as "Soshark," literally "rough shark" and probably a pun on "soshaku," meaning crushing with one's teeth. The palace erupts as huge sections break loose, and the guards shout in disbelief. Someone cries, "That grip strength is ridiculous!! What is he trying to do?!" Hody is not using a Devil Fruit or an elaborate weapon; this is presented as brute strength. The panel makes clear why Neptune's soldiers fear him: even before taking any drug in this moment, he can physically rip open the palace and change the terrain of the fight. Page 5: Hody's destruction lets seawater pour into the palace. Someone asks, "That's... just his natural strength, right?" and another answers, "Yeah... he's not even drugged up right now..." Then the wall collapses with a huge blast, and screams fill the hall: "Aaa aargh hhh!! The castle wall collapsed!!!" Water floods across the floor. Zoro realizes the danger immediately: "Crap... He's flooding the place with sea-water!!!" Neptune's people panic, "Aaaa hhhh hhh!!! This isn't good at all!!!" while Hody laughs, "Jahah ahaha hah..." The flooding changes the fight's conditions. For fish-men it is natural territory; for Devil Fruit users and humans it is a trap. Hody has not just entered the palace, he has turned it into a battlefield built for him. Page 6: Hody gathers seawater into his palm while the palace soldiers recognize the move. One shouts, "G - get down!! He's gonna do that!!!" Another says, "Crap... those water droplets...!!" Hody fires the technique: "Yabusame!!!" The explanatory note says the kanji means "arrow warrior shark" and is a homophone for "yabusame," horseback archery. The water droplets shoot out like arrows and rip across the palace. Guards scream "Aaa rghh hh!!!" as the attack spreads indiscriminately through friend and enemy. Neptune sees the danger from his bindings, and Zoro watches from the flooded hall, understanding that the water itself has become ammunition.
