## One Piece Chapter 321, pages 8-10: MANO A MANO - Chapter: 321 - Pages: 8-10 - Characters: Luffy, Aokiji ### Summary Page 8: Luffy leaps high into the air above Aokiji. He inhales a massive amount of air, inflating his torso like a giant balloon. "INHAIL...!!" he shouts, followed by a forceful "EXHAIL!!!" as he twists his body. He unleashes a rapid-fire barrage of punches downward at Aokiji, yelling his attack name: "GOMU GOMU ~~~~ STORM!!" The punches rain down in a furious blur of motion. Page 9: Aokiji effortlessly catches one of Luffy's flying fists in his hand. He exhales a breath of cold air, "PHUF..." In an instant, ice rapidly spreads from Aokiji's grip, engulfing Luffy's entire body. Aokiji calmly declares his technique: "ICE TIME". Luffy is completely frozen mid-attack, encased in a thick layer of jagged ice, his expression frozen in a yell. Page 10: Luffy is shown completely immobilized, a solid statue of ice with his fist still extended. Aokiji stands before him, scratching his head thoughtfully. He recalls Luffy's words: "LET'S SETTLE THIS... JUST YOU AND ME. MANO A MANO." Aokiji realizes the implication, muttering, "... HM... I GOT TRICKED." He sits down on the frozen ground, looking at the frozen captain. "I AGREED TO SETTLE THIS, ONE-ON-ONE... AND I WON... BUT... IF I ATTACK ANY OF YOUR CREW, I WOULD BE BREAKING A PROMISE... RIGHT, CAPTAIN?"
