The cover story is titled 'ACE'S GREAT SEARCH FOR BLACKBEARD VOL. 15 "THE COFFEE AT THE MEETING IS TERRIBLE"'. In a Marine meeting room, Vice Admiral Comil sits at the head of a long table, holding a cup of coffee and looking disgusted. Several other Marines are seated around the table, also drinking coffee. One Marine on the left is spitting his coffee out in shock at the taste. A map and some wanted posters are pinned to a whiteboard behind Comil. Page 1: Mont Blanc Noland is trapped deep within a fissure in the ground. He struggles against the crushing earth, grunting, 'NGHHH!' He pants heavily, 'HUFF... HUFF...' and coughs, blood dripping down his face. He thinks to himself in frustration, 'DAMN IT!' and 'Ahahaha!' Looking toward the distant village, he thinks, 'THE TREE FEVER AFFLICTING THE VILLAGE CAN NOW BE COMPLETELY CURED...! IF ONLY I COULD RETURN TO THE VILLAGE, I COULD PROVE IT TO THEM...!' Above him, Kalgara stands at the edge of the fissure, holding his spear. Kalgara looks down at Noland and says, 'You've been trapped perfectly between the shifting grounds. Truly, only God could have managed to ensnare you so perfectly. I'm surprised you're still even alive...' Page 2: Kalgara continues to look down at Noland trapped in the deep fissure. Kalgara says, 'The sun is already setting... Once the sun sets over the western horizon and night falls... You and your men, Will be offered up to the gods.' Noland remains stuck in the crack at the bottom of the ravine. Kalgara glares down angrily and says, 'It's all because you've messed up our ritual, That you've unleashed god's wrath upon us!' He adds, 'Your pitiful state right now is proof of god's fury. The earthquake just now was god's punishment. There is nothing you can do now!' Page 3: In the Shandia village, panic and despair have taken over. A villager notes, 'Kalgara headed into the forest.' Another says, 'If the god-slayer is killed, Hopefully god's wrath will be assuaged for the time being...' A woman weeps over a body, crying, 'PAPA! PAPA!' A man reports, 'Another warrior passed away.' Another laments, 'If only he could have at least died in battle.' A villager asks, 'Have you finished with the funerary urn yet!?' The urn maker replies, 'There are still plenty of corpses waiting for their urn! With so many people dropping like flies, it's impossible for me to keep up.' A man suddenly collapses with a 'FALL', and another curses, 'Curses...' Angry Shandia warriors confront Noland's crew, shouting, 'IF YOU LOT HAD NEVER COME TO THIS VILLAGE, NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE-' and 'EVEN THAT EARTHQUAKE JUST NOW COST US DEAR CASUALTIES! YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS LIGHTLY!' The crew members panic, 'WHA!?' and 'WAIT! WAIT! DON'T RUSH INTO THINGS!' The villagers yell, 'IF YOU PEOPLE HAD NEVER INTERFERED WITH THE RITUAL, EVERYONE WOULD BE-' Page 4: The angry Shandia villagers continue to yell at Noland's crew, 'YOU'RE THE EVIL SPIRITS PLAGUING OUR VILLAGE! WE WILL KILL YOU NOW!' The crew members, now tied up behind wooden bars, panic and plead, 'AGHH!' 'HEY, WAIT! THIS ISN'T WHAT YOU PROMISED!' 'W-W-WAIT!' 'WE STILL HAVE SOME TIME LEFT! STOP!' 'WHY YOU-' The young boy Seto sits cross-legged in front of the wooden bars, blocking the villagers from attacking the crew. An angry villager yells, 'SETO! MOVE OUTTA THE WAY! MY WIFE DIED LAST NIGHT BECAUSE OF THESE BASTARDS!' Seto glares back and says, 'Were much, Much more honourable than how you're acting now!' He thinks of the warriors, '...The proud Shandora warriors that I had always looked up to,' A crew member notices him, 'It's that kid...' Mousse watches the scene silently from the side. Page 5: Back at the fissure, Noland continues to struggle against the crushing earth. He grunts, 'NGHH!' and 'ARGHH!' as he squirms in the tight space. Kalgara watches him from above with a stern expression. Suddenly, Noland screams in agony, 'HNGHHH- GAAAAAAAHHHHH!' as the ground shifts and squeezes him tighter. Kalgara looks shocked and notices the movement, exclaiming, 'THE WHOLE GROUND IS...!?' Page 6: The ground around the fissure shifts violently with a loud 'ZUZUN' rumble. Noland is squeezed even tighter by the shifting earth. He pants heavily, 'HUFF HUFF', as the pressure increases. Kalgara watches in shock, sweating as the ground moves. Noland feels the intense pressure, 'THROB THROB', and pants, 'PANT...' He screams out again in immense pain, 'HNGHH- AARGHHHHHH!' Page 7: In the village, the Shandia warriors prepare for the sacrifice. 'Prepare for the ritual!' 'Take these sacrifices to the altar!' Noland's crew members are led away by armed warriors. One crew member pleads, 'Hey! W... Wait! C'mon, just wait a little longer!...
