She tells Neptune, "I can see why you would keep this a closely-guarded secret." If the world learned that Shirahoshi was Poseidon, "all manner of different factions..." would seek that power, "including both pirates, and the government...!!" Nearby, a wet shape rises with a "GLOOP" and Caribou hears everything. He trembles with greed: "An ancient weaaaapon?! A power capable of destroying the wooorld?!" Then he whispers to himself, "Is it just me, or did I just overhear a major scoop?!" and laughs, "Kehihihihihithi?! I see, I see... That mermaid princess, eh...?" Elsewhere in the palace, Jinbe tries to pull Luffy's attention back to the world around him: "Luffy, I do think you should pay a little more attention..." Luffy answers, "Really?" Jinbe says he wants to speak "somewhere more private," and Luffy casually replies, "Sure! Hang on a minute... I'll just go fetch some things to eat!" Page 3: Luffy returns to the others still eating, cheeks full, and calls out, "Oh, hey! You guys are out here too?" Around him the Straw Hats are recovering from the banquet in their own ways. Usopp admits, "I drank a little too much! I came out here to sober up." Chopper says, "And I ate too much. I'm stuffed." Sanji is collapsed in bliss because "Sanji's recovering from a mermaid overdose," while Brook declares, "Fishman Island is the best!!" Jinbe resumes the news from the outside world, and Luffy reacts in shock: "Whaaaat?! Akainu and Aokiji had a big fight?!" Jinbe says Rayleigh was right that Luffy does not do things by halves, but Luffy has missed a major incident. Chopper has heard of this one too. Jinbe explains that immediately after the war two years ago, Fleet Admiral Sengoku stepped down, forcing the question of a successor. Sengoku himself recommended Aokiji, "a man who commands great respect from his subordinates," but among the upper echelons of the World Government, Akainu became the favored candidate.
