## One Piece Chapter 796, pages 7-8: Soldier-san's Decision - Chapter: 796 - Pages: 7-8 - Characters: Gats, King Riku, Elizabello II, Dressrosa citizens, Rebecca, Scarlet ### Summary Page 7: In the central district, Gats announces, "Today, on this day, our king returns!" The crowd roars, "King Riku!" and he explains that after a span of ten years, King Riku has declared he will return to the throne. Elizabello laughs that Riku was tricked by a pirate and then tricked the king in turn, but the people cheer anyway. The narration says the country is amped up, and Riku reflects that although the people endured poverty and pain after facing the horrors of death, they now wish with all their hearts for peace. Page 8: King Riku wonders whether he has it in him to make the people happy, wishing he were "a godlike king that could sweep aside even storms with a wave" of his hand. Elizabello responds that no one could find the situation funny if it were not so tragic, and Riku says, "In all honesty, I'm so glad they managed to make it through all of that." Elizabello tells him not to get ahead of himself; Riku replies, "I will continue giving it my best. That is all I know." He admits he will not give the throne over until the day comes for Rebecca, asking whether Elizabello remembers how strong-willed Scarlet was.
