## One Piece Chapter 703, pages 8-9: Waiting Room - Chapter: 703 - Pages: 8-9 - Characters: Violet, Sanji ### Summary Page 8: Violet apologizes softly: "I'm so sorry... did you bump your head or something?" Then she confesses why she was fleeing. "No... the only thing I've bumped into is that fateful impact that we call a chance encounter." When Sanji notices blood, she lowers her eyes: "But, with this much blood..." Sanji immediately insists, "Really... it's nothing." He is already beyond caution, crying, "Owahhh hhhhh," and declaring, "This is bad... I can't stop the love!!" Violet looks at him with pity and says, "You poor man..." Sanji, overwhelmed, misunderstands everything as romance. "Eh!? No, you mustn't look at me in that way!! I'm a woman who's given up on love...!!" Violet says. Sanji answers, "Right!! You made them all happy." She asks, "You were being chased?! Just who were those guys!?" and then, desperate but focused, says, "If I can lend my power in any way, just say the word." Page 9: Sanji gives her an immediate "OK," and asks, "Is it really ok?" He has heard enough about Dressrosa to believe the rumors: "Ehh!!? So it's true that the women of this country are so passionate that they'd even stab men!?" Violet reveals the truth with shame. "The ones chasing me were the police. I... I stabbed a man!! It was a romance gone wrong." Sanji accepts even that as part of her tragedy. Violet trembles and says, "Ouuu hhh...!! A devilish woman like me doesn't deserve forgiveness..." Sanji tells her, "I might just fall for you..." She finally gives him her name: "My name is Violet." Then the request turns the scene from flirtation into conspiracy. "...If possible, could you protect me as far as the next city over? And then, there..." She looks up at him and says the real sentence: "There's a man I'd like you to kill."
