Luffy, Marines, Whitebeard Pirates, allied pirates, Aokiji ### Summary Page 3: Ace and Luffy rush forward together while Marines warn, "Don't think you're safe now!!!" and "You'll both die right here!!!" Luffy answers with a Gum-Gum attack, and Ace tells the Marines, "That's my little brother, you know. Don't lay a hand on him!!" The brothers fight side by side, fire and rubber striking through the Marine lines. Their teamwork shocks the battlefield and immediately turns the rescue into a breakout. Page 4: Ace unleashes "Hiken!!!" or "Fire Fist," blasting Marines aside while Luffy fights beside him. The brothers cut through the soldiers with a mix of flame and punches. Marines are thrown into the air, shouting "Uwaaaahhh!!!" as the force of Ace's fire clears space around them. The page is mostly action and SFX, emphasizing that Ace is fully back in the battle now that his handcuffs are gone. Page 5: The Whitebeard Pirates cheer the brothers on, shouting, "Fufufu!! They work well together!" and "Open a path for them!!!" The Marines yell, "Kill them both! Fire Fist and Strawhat," but Luffy and Ace charge through the smoke side by side. Pirates and allies swing weapons and block Marines to keep the route open. The battlefield begins shifting from rescue to evacuation, with everyone trying to get Ace and Luffy out alive. Page 6: Ace praises Luffy: "You've gotten stronger, Luffy!" Luffy says, "I'll be better than you someday, Ace!!" Their reunion is interrupted when Admiral Aokiji appears and forms an "Ice Block" attack. Ace tells Luffy to get back because he is still covering for him. Aokiji launches "Pheasant Beak!!!" and Ace counters with "Kyoukaen!!!" or "Mirror Flame," meeting ice with fire in a huge collision that explodes across the plaza.
