The cover story continues: The name of Miss Goldenweek's strategy, "Meet Baroque," Vol. 37, "Chocolate Lady," "Fireman," "Pizza Delivery Man," and "Tank." The Baroque Works side story turns into another dream-costume tableau, with the escaped members imagined as ordinary workers and heroes under Miss Goldenweek's color trap. Page 1: In the burning kitchen, Chopper stands battered and breathing hard, one heavy fist still clenched. The floor is broken, smoke rolls across the room, and Kumadori's hair lashes around him like living ropes. Chopper says only "...!!" through exhausted breaths. Kumadori's hair drops from the ceiling in thick strands, and he roars, "Yoyoi!!" Then he declares, "Showing mercy to others shall not happen when the lion is very angry!!!" The scene makes the danger clear: Chopper is already wounded from the failed transformations, and Kumadori is no longer treating the fight like a performance. Page 2: Chopper tries to calculate his last chance while Kumadori attacks. He thinks, "The second Rumble Ball is like a gamble... There's only a one-in-seven chance that I can transform into 'Arm Point'!!" If he can reach Arm Point, he believes, "I can hit him with my strongest technique! That'll be my only chance!!" Kumadori strikes again with "Shish Kebab!!!" and Chopper is battered across the room, crying, "Oowah!!" He calls out "Arm Point!!" again and again, but the transformations refuse to obey. One form after another comes out wrong, and each mistake leaves him more exposed to Kumadori's attacks. Page 3: Chopper's body is reaching its limit. He pants, "Haa!! Haa..." and thinks, "This isn't it either!! Why can't I do it!? My body's at its limit, too...!! I gotta get into 'Arm Point' somehow..." Kumadori keeps striking, and Chopper finally feels the form arrive: "Oowah!! I got it!! When did I get it!?" He realizes, "...!! I'm betting everything on this one hit...!!!" He gathers himself for "Kokutei" while Kumadori answers with "Shishi Shigan!!!" The page holds the clash at the edge of impact: Chopper has the right form at last, but only one real chance to use it. Page 4: At the last instant, Chopper thinks, "If I retreat now... I won't get another chance!!" Kumadori hardens himself with "Tekkai Gou!!!" and Chopper drives in with "Kokutei"... then releases "Roseo Metel!!!" The note identifies it as "Cherry Blossom Snowstorm." The hoof strike explodes into Kumadori with enough force to blow through his iron body stance. Kumadori's eyes widen with "Nu!?" as the impact bursts across the kitchen. For one moment, Chopper's gamble works: he reaches Arm Point, commits everything to the blow, and overwhelms Kumadori's defense. Page 5: Kumadori collapses backward under the strike, and Chopper, shaking, thinks, "Collapse!!!" He looks down at his own battered body and the ruined kitchen, believing, "This is my strongest attack!!!" Kumadori lies still amid the smoke and debris. Chopper whispers, "Goodness..." and then, "Goodness gracious!!!" The room quiets for the first time in the fight. Kumadori's staff lies near him, the air thick with flames and dust, while Chopper stands over the aftermath of his desperate Arm Point attack and hopes the battle is finally over. Page 6: The victory lasts only a breath. Kumadori's mouth opens, and he says, "Yet no longer..." Chopper stiffens. Kumadori rises again with a massive roar: "Gar-rar-rah!!!" He charges through the kitchen and slams Chopper, who cries, "Gugh!!!" Kumadori shouts, "Yet no longer can I hold back!!! I shall thunder unto thee, roar of the lion~~~!!! Yoyoyoyo!!!" Chopper is knocked away, and the fight turns worse than before. His strongest attack has failed to finish Kumadori, and now Kumadori's rage is fully unleashed. Page 7: Kumadori's hair whips through the room, and he follows with "Rankyaku!!" then "Renge!!!" with the note "Lotus Flower." Chopper is caught in the storm of hair, kicks, and impacts, unable to mount a counterattack. He thinks, "This isn't good... I don't have any strength left for a counterattack...!!!" Far away in another room, voices call through the chaos: "Chopper...!!" and "Chopper, what have you done!!?" But Chopper has no strength to answer. The fight has passed the point where his normal courage and tactics are enough. Page 8: As Kumadori attacks, Chopper remembers the warning from Drum Island. In memory, someone says, "Don't think you can get out of this by just saying you don't remember!! You're lucky that you didn't kill anyone." They remind him, "While you were asleep, everyone in the country was in a panic about that night...!!" and, "You almost destroyed an entire village!!" The old doctor tells him, "I don't care if you like to experiment as much...
