Buggy is in the center, laughing with his arms outstretched. To his left is Cabaji, holding a sword, and to his right is Alvida, holding her spiked iron mace. Below them are Mohji and his pet lion Richie, who is wearing a straw hat. The text reads 'CHAPTER 74 "BUSINESS"' at the top, and 'ADVENTURES OF THE BUGGY CREW VOL. 27 "PARADE!"' at the bottom. Page 1: Inside Arlong Park, Arlong holds a terrified Usopp by the face. Arlong boasts, 'The bounty on my head is the highest in all of East Blue at 20 million Beli. Considering that, it's only natural that a well-known bounty hunter would come for me.' The scene shifts to an exterior view of the large, multi-story Arlong Park building with its distinctive curved roofs. Arlong's voice booms from inside, 'So where is this Roronoa Zoro hiding...!? He's not the most classy guy, if he thinks he can sneak in here and cut down my brethren while I'm out...!' Back inside, Arlong holds Usopp dangling over a large indoor pool. Usopp flails his legs and cries out in panic, 'I... I don't know! I really have nothing to do with this Zoro guy you're talking about! Please let me go!' Several Fishman Pirates stand around the pool, watching the interrogation. Page 2: Chew, a fishman with prominent lips, points at Usopp and says, 'Chu! I'd advise you to stop with the bad lies. It's undeniable that you personally attacked Arlong as well. There's not a chance that we'd let you free.' Usopp flinches, sweating profusely. Realizing his lie failed, Usopp changes tactics and yells, 'Alright, I admit it! M-me and Zoro are real tight bros! S-s-so you better not lay a single finger on me! Or else Zoro will come and kill all of you!' A fishman in the background mutters, 'Talk about a change in attitude.' Arlong brings his large, jagged sword close to Usopp's face, grinning menacingly. 'Oh? So you mean to say that Zoro will come if I kill you?' Usopp panics even more, waving his hands frantically. 'Wha!? N-no! That's not it! Killing me would be the wrong thing to do! If you keep me alive, Zoro should definitely come to save me! In fact, if you don't keep me alive, he'll never come! Hey Nami! Say something!' Nami stands nearby, looking serious and silent. Arlong glances at her and says, 'What's wrong, Nami? You look a little troubled, no? It seems like you're still doubting me quite a bit...!' Page 3: Arlong continues to scrutinize Nami, saying, 'It's because I know what you're like that I'm doubting you. You're a little too cunning.' Nami glares back, thinking to herself, '...Damn it! I'm not going to let myself be killed because of some stupid misunderstanding!' She looks down, her expression tense as she thinks, 'Why does everything need to go wrong now of all times...!? Just when I'm so close to achieving my goal...!' Meanwhile, Usopp, still held by Arlong, yells angrily at her, 'Nami! I'm real disappointed in you! You witch!' Nami turns her head slightly to listen as Usopp continues to shout, 'Luffy didn't doubt you for a single second, even after he heard you ran away!' Page 4: Usopp continues his angry tirade, tears streaming down his face as he yells at Nami, 'He completely trusts you! Even now! But to think you've been deceiving him all along without even batting an eye!' Nami turns to face him fully, a cold, confident smile on her face. She replies dismissively, 'Sorry, but the only thing I trust is money. Blame his idiocy for being duped.' Usopp's jaw drops in utter shock at her callous words, and he stammers, 'What did you just say!?' A moment later, Usopp is thrown into the pool with a huge splash. Page 5: Hatchan, the octopus fishman, suddenly arrives at the courtyard, waving his multiple arms. 'Yo! Why's everyone all gathered here?' A fishman turns to him and says, 'Nyu!? Arlong, you're back! Welcome back!' Hatchan walks further in and is shocked to see several fishmen lying unconscious on the ground. 'What's this!?' he exclaims. Arlong, looking annoyed, replies, 'It's the work of that infamous pirate hunter Zoro. Where were you, Hachi? If you were only here, this would've never happened.' Page 6: Hatchan clenches his fists angrily. 'Damn right! Like I would ever let the guy who offed my crewmates go scot-free! Why that Zoro! I'll kill him!' Arlong asks him, 'So you don't know anything about where Zoro could've gone to?' Hatchan replies casually, 'Nope, nothing! The only one I remember meeting was this rather suspicious lone swordsman.' Suddenly, Hatchan's eyes widen in realization. 'Could it have been him!?' Arlong yells furiously, 'So you did meet him, you dumbass!' Arlong demands, 'Where did he go!?' Hatchan, sweating nervously, answers, 'I just gave him a ride to Cocoyashi V...
