## One Piece Chapter 292, pages 8-9: To Meet, like the Half Moon Hidden by Clouds - Chapter: 292 - Pages: 8-9 - Characters: Montblanc Noland, Noland's Crew, King of Lvneel, Executioner, Townspeople, Executioners ### Summary Page 8: Chaos breaks out in the crowd as Noland's original crew tries desperately to push their way to the front to save him. They shout, "THIS WAY, GUYS!" "Aghh! Our admiral's up on the execution stand!" "STOP! I'VE NEVER EVEN SEEN THAT SO-CALLED WITNESS OF YOURS!" "WHO THE HELL IS HE!? HE WASN'T A PART OF OUR CREW!" "Clear the way!" "ADMIRAL!" The King watches coldly from his balcony and orders his guards, "Restrain them." A guard replies, "Yes, sir." Noland, kneeling on the execution block, looks back at his struggling men, thinking, "My men... What happened!? Were you not able to meet Kalgara and the Shandia!?" The executioner raises a massive blade. An official reads the final sentence: "THE EXPLORER MONTBLANC NOLAND, IS HEREBY SENTENCED TO DEATH BY BEHEADING FOR HIS GREAT LIES!" Page 9: Noland's crew members scream in despair, tears streaming down their faces, "OUR ADMIRAL WOULD NEVER LIE!" "ADMIRAL!" "ADMIRAL!" The massive crowd surrounding the execution platform chants angrily, "LIAR! LIAR! LIAR! LIAR! LIAR! LIAR!" Noland kneels on the wooden platform with his hands bound behind his back, two executioners standing ready with their weapons raised. Despite his impending death, Noland's expression is sorrowful but calm, his thoughts entirely on his friend. He thinks, "KALGARA... WHERE ARE YOU NOW? ARE YOU ALIVE...?...MY ONLY CONCERN IS OF YOU AND YOUR PEOPLE." The crowd continues to scream "LIAR!" as the scene fades.
