## One Piece Chapter 943, pages 8-9: SMILE - Chapter: 943 - Pages: 8-9 - Characters: Kaido, Shutenmaru, Inuarashi, Kin'emon, Kozuki Hiyori, Kurozumi Orochi, Sanji, Donquixote Doflamingo ### Summary Page 8: On Onigashima, Kaido laughs at Orochi's cruelty and calls him sick. In Bakura Town, Shutenmaru asks Inuarashi and Kin'emon whether they know of the SMILE fruit. The smiles of Ebisu Town, he says, are only masks that can never be removed. The truth that Hiyori hinted at now spreads across the allies: what looks like cheerfulness is not happiness at all, but a permanent wound caused by Kaido and Orochi's artificial fruit scheme. Page 9: A few years earlier, Kaido and Orochi began trading Wano's weapons for artificially made synthetic fruits called SMILEs. Sanji remembers hearing from Kin'emon that these are synthetic Devil Fruits, the kind whose factory the Straw Hats destroyed. In return for the terrible curse of a Devil Fruit, the fruit grants the feral power of a beast to those who succeed. Kaido aimed to use them to strengthen his followers and build the most fearsome pirate crew in the world. But these fruits carried a catch.
