Luffy, Marines ### Summary Page 8: A blast from deeper in the island answers the question. The group looks toward the smoke and Nami says, "We should start there!!!" Sanji, holding his weapon, says, "Now then..." Zoro answers, "Let's go!" and Chopper steels himself beside them. At the same time the Hou-Bantai seethe with rage. One snarls, "Grrr...!!! How dare these pirates cause a ruckus on Enies Lobby!?" Another declares, "Their actions here are definitely unforgivable!" The rescuers are ready to follow Luffy's trail, while the island's law-guard corps prepares to punish them for invading the sacred Government island. Page 9: At the Enies Lobby island center, Luffy is already fighting alone. He crashes through soldiers with the cry "Or-yaa!!!" and swings wildly through the crowd. A guard lands a blow with "Whack!!!" but Luffy pushes forward, grimacing with an "Un!" and striking back. His limbs stretch through the formation, smashing multiple enemies aside while the soldiers shout "Oh-waah!!!" and "Geh haa!!!" The page shows the same truth the Government reports keep failing to control: Luffy is not waiting for his crew, and he is not negotiating. He is forcing his way through the island by sheer persistence.
