## One Piece Chapter 518, pages 17-18: Coliseum - Chapter: 518 - Pages: 17-18 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Boa Hancock, Boa Sandersonia, Boa Marigold, Kuja spectators ### Summary Page 17: The crowd chants "DEATH!! DEATH!! DEATH!!" as Hancock gives the order: "GO!!" Sandersonia and Marigold step onto the arena floor before Luffy, towering over him. Hancock commands, "SANDER-SONIA!!! MARI-GOLD!!! TAKE THAT MAN'S HEAD!!!" The sisters answer, "LEAVE IT TO US, SISTER..." and begin a terrifying transformation. Their bodies twist, necks lengthen, and serpentine features spread across them with low sounds: Sandersonia murmurs "GUGUGUGUGU..." while Marigold rumbles "ZOWAWAWAWA..." Luffy stands between them, silent and ready, as the massive gate and cheering stands loom behind. The execution has moved from Bacura's brute animal attack to the Gorgon Sisters themselves. Hancock is no longer letting the arena beast handle him; she has sent her own blood to erase the man who angered her. Page 18: Sandersonia and Marigold complete their transformations into enormous snake-bodied forms. Luffy looks up and realizes, "SO THEY'RE FRUIT USERS...!!" The crowd, however, interprets the change through the island's legend: "HERE IT IS!! THE GORGON'S CURSE!!" A note explains that the kanji reads "snake pit," and that "Saragi" is the name of a city in Nara. The announcer-like cry declares, "THE YOUNGER GORGON SISTERS ARE STARTING THEIR 'VANCE OF SARAGI'!!" Around the coliseum, the chant continues: "DEATH!! DEATH!! DEATH!!" Sandersonia's snake body coils high beside Luffy, her face calm and almost smiling, while Marigold's massive body curls on the other side. Luffy is physically dwarfed between them, but he does not retreat. The page ends with the two sisters' Devil Fruit forms filling the arena, setting up a true coliseum fight.
