## One Piece Chapter 290, pages 16-17: Light of Shandora - Chapter: 290 - Pages: 16-17 - Characters: Mont Blanc Noland, Kalgara, Noland's crew, Shandia villagers ### Summary Page 16: Noland's crew members are confused and hurt by the sudden hostility. One asks, "It's like... They despise us all of a sudden! D... Did we stay too long?" Another angrily yells at the villagers, "HEY, WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA!? YOU WERE ALL STILL FRIENDLY JUST YESTERDAY!" Noland raises a hand to calm his men, saying, "Stop. Let's continue our work for now. There are still parts of the forest we haven't been to yet." Elsewhere, Shandia villagers are venting their anger. One shouts, "I CAN'T DO IT! I CAN'T PUT UP WITH THEM FOR EVEN ONE SECOND!" Another agrees, "I DON'T HAVE AN OUNCE OF GOOD WILL TOWARDS THEM!" A third villager tries to calm them, "You don't have to have any... Just be patient until they set sail." Noland is shown looking towards the distant golden city, thinking sadly, "Kalgara... So this is where you were..." A dramatic close-up shows Kalgara's face contorted in absolute rage as he declares, "I DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT BASTARD'S FACE EVER AGAIN... AND IF I DO... I WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP MYSELF FROM KILLING HIM...!" Page 17: Noland's crew members are talking among themselves. One notes, "The bell... Didn't ring today..." Another adds, "I think that's the first time I've seen a day go by without the bell ringing. Where's the admiral?" A crew member spots him and points, "Over there by the rock. Admiral..." Noland is seen walking through the forest, saying, "Just 2 more days and we'll be able to finish our inspection of the forest." A crew member replies nervously, "R... Right, sir..." Later, Noland is sitting slumped against a tree. He instructs, "Tell the men we're setting sail in 3 days, So they should enjoy their time on land while they can...!" A crew member expresses concern, "Admiral... I'm not sure if we should remain here any longer on such a hostile isl-" Noland interrupts firmly, "We've got to finish what must be done! Now go to sleep!" A large close-up shows Noland's face, his expression a mix of determination and deep sorrow.
