## One Piece Chapter 7, pages 4-5: Friends - Chapter: 7 - Pages: 4-5 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Koby, Roronoa Zoro, Ririka, Rika ### Summary Page 4: Luffy gives a massive, confident grin and declares, "WE'RE HEADED FOR THE GRAND LINE!" A shocked "!!!?" reaction bubble appears. Koby completely loses his composure, his eyes bugging out and sweat pouring down his face as he screams, "HUH!? THAT'S SUICIDE!!!" He leans in frantically, "THERE ARE ONLY TWO OF YOU! IF YOU GO THERE, YOU'LL JUST BE SAILING TO YOUR DEATHS! THE MOST BLOODTHIRSTY PIRATES IN THE WORLD ARE THERE!!!" Luffy just stares at him blankly. Zoro, looking calm and collected, remarks, "WELL, I GUESS IF WE'RE AFTER THE 'ONE PIECE'......THE GRAND LINE IS WHERE WE HAVE TO GO." Koby turns his shock toward Zoro, yelling, "ZOLO!? YOU AGREE WITH HIM!?" Zoro side-eyes Koby and replies bluntly, "WHAT'S IT TO YOU? YOU'RE NOT COMING WITH US." Page 5: Koby slams his hands down on the table with a loud "BAM SLAM", startling Luffy with a "!". Koby yells, "NO, BUT I'M WORRIED ABOUT YOU! IS THAT SO WRONG!? CAN'T I WORRY ABOUT... MY FRIENDS?" He immediately looks down, flustered, "THAT'S NOT WHAT I--" He continues softly, "LUFFY, WE HAVEN'T KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR VERY LONG, BUT......WE'RE FRIENDS, AREN'T WE?" Luffy gives him a wide, genuine smile and answers, "WE'RE GOING OUR SEPARATE WAYS......BUT WE'LL ALWAYS BE FRIENDS!!" Koby smiles back, tears streaming down his face behind his glasses. "YOU'RE THE FIRST REAL FRIEND I'VE EVER HAD... NO ONE ELSE EVER STUCK UP FOR ME!" In the background, Ririka and Rika watch them fondly. Zoro watches Luffy, who has already gone back to eating, and mutters, "EVEN I WOULDN'T STICK UP FOR ME!"
