## One Piece Chapter 425, pages 14-15: The Bridge of Struggle - Chapter: 425 - Pages: 14-15 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Rob Lucci, Sanji, Nami, Tony Tony Chopper ### Summary Page 14: Luffy slams into the ground, but he understands the nature of the blow even while coughing blood. "IT'S JUST LIKE THE IMPACT DIAL FROM THE SKY ISLAND...!!" he thinks, and then realizes the difference: "BUT ITS POWER IS GREATLY AMPLIFIED...!!!" Lucci breathes heavily, "HAA... HAA..." and Luffy coughs "COUGH!!" before forcing himself back into motion. Lucci follows with "RANKYAKU" and a slicing kick screams toward him, but Luffy answers with "GAI-CHOU"!!! The counterattack tears through the rubble as both fighters keep choosing offense over retreat. Page 15: A cannon blast erupts near the bridge with a huge "KABOOM!!" and the people on the escape ship react in panic: "LUFFY!!!" Yet Sanji measures the fight with grim confidence. "LUCCI IS... REALLY STRONG...!!!" he says, and admits, "IF THE STRAWHAT HADN'T BEEN HOLDING HIM BACK IN THAT PLACE FOR A LONG TIME... HONESTLY, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OF US WOULD'VE DIED." Nami understands the same thing from another angle. Luffy has always known whom he should fight from the very beginning. He had said it himself: "I'LL DEFEAT THAT 'PIGEON GUY' FOR SURE!!!" Nami looks toward the battle and says, "...IT'S JUST THAT THIS ANIMAL INSTINCT FOR THESE THINGS IS GOOD. AND APPARENTLY HIS IS BETTER THAN YOURS."
