Five older men are gathered in a grand room. Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro, holding a sword, says, "More importantly, we must appoint another member to the Shichibukai to fill Crocodile's absence. Even a single hole must not be overlooked." Shepherd Ju Peter, with blonde hair, adds, "A rupture in the 'Three Great Powers' can cause a tremor that will shake the entire world. We must maintain the balance." Topman Warcury, with a large mustache, suggests, "We should observe the situation for now instead of acting hastily." Jaygarcia Saturn, holding a cane, argues, "But he's not a man bent on trying to change the world. If we just allow Red-Hair to run amok unchecked, it will be difficult for us to contain the possible consequences." Marcus Mars, standing tall with long white hair, agrees, "Hmm... True, indeed..." Page 16: A marine reports, "Yes, an invitation has been sent to all Shichibukai members for that purpose, but... It is difficult to say how many of them will show... They are pirates, after all, a rather unruly and fickle bunch..." The scene shifts to show two massive figures arriving. The marine announces, "MARINE HQ REPORTING TO MARIE-JOIE: THE ROYAL SHICHIBUKAI MEMBERS, DONQUIXOTE DOFLAMINGO, AND... BARTHOLOMEW KUMA HAVE ARRIVED...!" Doflamingo stands tall in his feathered coat, while the towering Kuma holds a Bible. Back with the Five Elders, one says, "Crocodile... What a mess you've left for us... And the man who took him down... He must also not be allowed to run loose for long... Monkey D. Luffy..." A hand is shown holding Luffy's wanted poster.
