MY RANK IS THE HIGHEST ON THIS BASE... WHICH MAKES ME SUPERIOR TO EVERYONE ELSE HERE..." He continues, "RANK MEANS EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD, REMEMBER THAT! THAT MEANS EVERYTHING I DO IS RIGHT!!! IS THAT CLEAR?" The Marines salute frantically and yell, "YES SIR!! YOU ARE THE GREATEST, SIR!" The giant statue of Morgan is pulled upright with a loud "BAM". Morgan proudly declares, "THIS IS A MONUMENT TO MY RANK AND POWER!!! IT TOOK YEARS TO BUILD, BUT TODAY IT IS FINALLY COMPLETE. RAISE MY STATUE! PUT IT AT THE HIGHEST POINT OF THIS FORTRESS AS A SYMBOL OF MY GREATNESS!!" Page 12: Luffy is wandering around the base courtyard. "THAT'S FUNNY... THERE AREN'T ANY SAILORS AROUND... MAYBE THEY'RE HAVING A MEETING OR SOMETHING..." He looks around, "NO ONE TO HELP ME FIND ZOLO'S SWORDS......OR THE IDIOT SON..." On the roof, Marines are pulling the ropes to secure the statue. "HEAVE!! HEAVE!!" One Marine slips and bumps the statue with an "UNH!". The statue makes a "KLUNK" sound. Morgan notices immediately, "WHAT WAS THAT!? DID YOU JUST BUMP IT!?" The Marine panics, "SORRY, SIR! WE WERE CARELESS, SIR!" Down below, Luffy hears the commotion. "HUH? I THINK I HEAR VOICES UP THERE. I'LL JUST CHECK IT OUT!" He grabs the wall and stretches his arms far back with a "RRCH!!". Page 13: Luffy hooks his stretched hands onto the fortress above him and pulls his body taut like a slingshot. He says, "GUM-GUM..." The tension builds with a loud "GWOING" sound effect. He launches himself upwards towards the roof of the fortress, yelling "...ROCKET!!!" He flies rapidly through the air with a "FWUP!". A Marine on the roof looks over the edge, surprised by the incoming figure.
