## One Piece Chapter 948, pages 3-5: Kawamatsu the Kappa Appears - Chapter: 948 - Pages: 3-5 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Babanuki, Kaido, Kurozumi Orochi, Kozuki Oden, Shimotsuki Yasuie, Daifugo ### Summary Page 3: Babanuki calls out to the prisoners, ordering them to use their strength to hold Luffy down because their friend Luffytaro is running amok. Luffy is confused, asking why they would do that, but the prisoners grab him anyway. One tells him, "I'm on your side, guys! Don't you want to get out of here?" and another answers that they do have grudges, but they saw him fight and it brought smiles to their faces. Then they ask the harder question: where could they run, when Kaido and Orochi control all of Wano? Luffy can fight and flee because he is a foreign outsider, but they have nowhere free to go. Page 4: The prisoners explain the defeat that has crushed them for twenty years. They fought to avenge Lord Oden Kozuki's death at Kaido's hands, but they lost their friends and families and were bruised, beaten, and broken. Seeing Lord Yasuie's execution only brought back despair they thought they had forgotten. Even if they escape Udon, they say, they have no homes, no food, and no patch of soil in the country where they will ever be free. To Luffy, they shout, "You're just some foreign outsider! You can fight and run. All you want! Just keep us out of it!" Page 5: Daifugo fires plague bullets into the crowd. Prisoners immediately begin to burn and scream, "So... hot! My body's burning! Save me!" and "Oi! What's the matter! Wait, what's this weird bruise on his neck?!" Babanuki laughs and reveals that it is a highly contagious plague: touch the infected, and the disease will spread. The guards call them plague bullets and warn everyone to get away from the victims. Babanuki adds that if Luffy tries any funny business, he will shoot him too.
