## One Piece Chapter 22, pages 19-20: YOU ARE A RARE AND PRECIOUS ANIMAL TOO - Chapter: 22 - Pages: 19-20 - Characters: Gaimon, Monkey D. Luffy, Nami ### Summary Page 19: The flashback shows Gaimon, now stuck in the chest, crawling desperately toward the shore with "SHA SHA" sound effects. He cries out, "AAAAAAA..." as he sees his pirate ship sailing away in the distance. He narrates, "I struggled, crawling to the shore, but my companions had left me. They... they left me behind." He tries to climb the rock hill again but fails, sliding down with a "KALA-" sound. He realizes, "Wait! That means that... this treasure is all mine! This is very good! I can't climb, unless I leave this chest... Lemme out! Lemme out!" He screams, "Everyone, come back!!" Back in the present, Luffy asks, "No one came to this island in the past 20 years?" Gaimon replies, "Yes! People came... There were many times... They were all pirates looking for the treasure, but I used the 'Forest Judgement' to scare them all away!" Page 20: Gaimon declares confidently, "My eyes were never wrong! I'm very sure that there's a lot of treasure in that large rock hill! But I've been stuck in this chest! I've only been able to protect the treasure these past 20 years! That treasure is all mine!" Luffy nods and says, "Uh! That's right! Those are yours, uncle!" Nami enthusiastically offers, "Okay! Gaimon-san!! We'll help you bring down those treasures!" Gaimon is touched and says, "What? Is that true? That's very nice! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!" Luffy looks at Nami and asks, "Aren't you a professional thief that steals treasure from pirates?" Nami yells back, "Don't speak nonsense! I have principles too!"
