## One Piece Chapter 255, pages 3-5: The Python and the Explore Team - Chapter: 255 - Pages: 3-5 - Characters: Giant snake, Luffy, Zoro, Nico Robin, Chopper, Usopp, Nami, Sanji, Gan Fall, Pierre ### Summary Page 3: A massive, terrifying giant snake suddenly looms behind the group in the forest. The snake has dark stripes, long fangs, and a huge open mouth, hissing loudly with sound effects "TSS RARA RARA...". The sheer scale of the snake completely dwarfs Luffy, Zoro, Robin, and Chopper, who are standing on the giant roots below, unaware of the danger right behind them. The snake's long, forked tongue flicks out as it approaches them, accompanied by ominous rustling sounds "BA GI BA GI BA JI..." and "PA GI PAH GI". The snake's thick, scaled body coils through the trees, sliding forward with a "SU SU..." sound. Page 4: Back on the Going Merry, sailing along the Milky Road. Usopp stands confidently on the deck, declaring, "The wind is perfect!! The direction is perfect!! Ar~~~this is great. Our cruise is going nicely. Although it is a bit slow... Oi, navigator! Speed us up." Nami, sitting nearby, replies calmly, "There's nothing we can do, 'Captain' Usopp. The current of the milky road is too rough, so we can only rely on the dial boat to push us along." Sanji stands near the railing and shouts, "Alright!! Go Karasu-maru!!" as the small dial boat pushes the Merry from behind. Nami adds, "By the way, Sanji, you need to be my bodyguard. This forest is too creepy." Sanji instantly swoons, doing a little dance, "Shut up. I am a bodyguard exclusively to Nami-san." Nami then turns her attention to Gan Fall, who is resting on the deck. "Hey, it's time for the strange knight to get some medicine. Where did Chopper say he put it in?" Gan Fall corrects her, "My name would be Gan Fall. It's Gan Fall." Nami remembers, "Oh, the medicine is in the cupboard beside the refrigerator." Page 5: Gan Fall sits up on the deck of the Going Merry, looking serious. He says, "Please allow me to tell you... a little bit of the history... of this country... The 'God' of this island... I was... until six years ago..." Usopp's jaw drops in shock, his eyes wide. Sanji, smoking a cigarette, looks at Gan Fall skeptically and asks, "Did you fall on your head, old man?" Gan Fall continues his story, "...The first appearance of this Upper Yard in Skypiea was... like you said before, roughly 400 years ago." Pierre, the large bird, reacts with extreme shock, his eyes bugging out and beak wide open in a comical expression of disbelief.
