## One Piece Chapter 687, pages 16-17: Beast - Chapter: 687 - Pages: 16-17 - Characters: Tashigi, Monet, Roronoa Zoro ### Summary Page 16: Tashigi delivers the finishing cut. She raises her sword and strikes with "KIRISHIGURE!!" translated as "Drizzle Slice," cutting Monet with Haki while Monet remains shaken and exposed. Monet reacts in shock as Tashigi's blade passes through. Tashigi declares, "...THIS IS... YOUR LOSS...!!" Zoro watches without interfering. The action resolves the earlier argument between them in practice: Zoro created the opening by breaking Monet's will, but Tashigi is the one who lands the decisive Haki strike and claims the victory. The page closes the Monet fight while keeping both characters' positions intact. Zoro's strength made the outcome unavoidable; Tashigi's blade made it final. Page 17: After the fight, Tashigi challenges Zoro's behavior. She asks, "WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT!? IN THE END, YOU NEVER ACTUALLY DID DELIVER THE FINISHING BLOW." Zoro answers, "DON'T BE SO STUPID, WHEN YOU'RE THE ONE WHO INTERFERED. IF YOU HADN'T CUT HER JUST NOW, THEN I WOULD HAVE." Tashigi tries to call him out: "SO YEAH, IT'S JUST LIKE I SAID, YOU REALLY--" but Zoro cuts her off with "L-LIAR!!" and then, "THAT'S SNEAKY! OF COURSE YOU CAN SAY THAT AFTER I'VE ALREADY ENDED IT!!" She asks, "IS THIS REALLY NECESSARY?" Zoro dismisses the argument and says, "GOOD WORK, CAPTAIN FOUR EYES. YOU MADE SURE SHE WON'T BE GOING AFTER ANYONE. THE ACHIEVEMENT IS YOURS TO CLAIM." Tashigi snaps, "WHA!! WHY DOES IT SOUND LIKE YOU'RE TALKING DOWN TO ME...!!" Zoro answers, "BECAUSE YOU'RE BELOW ME." The page ends the chapter on their prickly rivalry: the mission is accomplished, but their argument is nowhere near settled.
