## One Piece Chapter 581, pages 10-11: The Approaching Future - Chapter: 581 - Pages: 10-11 - Characters: Emporio Ivankov, Monkey D. Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, Boa Hancock, Trafalgar Law, escaped prisoners, Jimbei, Heart Pirates, Kuja Pirates ### Summary Page 10: Ivankov explains how much Luffy had already endured before Marineford. He says the Strawhat boy was already injured so badly he could not stand at Impel Down, and that it is amazing he managed anything in that condition. He adds that Luffy did all of it so he could rescue Ace, only to have the brother he tried so hard to save die right before his eyes. Ivankov fears Luffy's spirit may be broken: "If I give up, I'll always regret it!!!" is remembered against Luffy's battered face. Hancock says it is tragic and wishes she could suffer in his place, while a wounded pirate shouts for Luffy to hang in there. When Hancock asks Law if he is Luffy's friend, Law answers, "No..." Page 11: Law says he had no obligation to help Luffy and asks Ivankov if he should make something up because Ivankov is uncomfortable with his kindness. Ivankov laughs that there are times when instinct moves the body, then suddenly calls, "Jimbei!!" Jimbei wakes, gravely wounded but alive, and thanks Law: "You're Trafalgar Law, from North Blue, right? You have my thanks for saving my life...!!" Ivankov warns Jimbei, "If you don't sleep, you'll die," but Jimbei says his heart will not calm down and that what he lost this time was too important to him. The aftermath leaves both Luffy and Jimbei physically alive but emotionally shattered.
