The main illustration features Wapol standing proudly in the foreground. He is wearing a dark suit and a large, thick coat with a fur-lined hood shaped like a bear's head. He has a wide, toothy grin and is raising one hand in a wave. Behind him is a massive, multi-story building designed to look like a hippopotamus head, complete with a crown on top. A large sign on the building reads "BAKUBAKU FACTORY". A large crowd of people, all dressed in suits, is gathered in front of the factory, cheering enthusiastically with their arms raised. In the bottom left corner, a small dog with a boxy, square-shaped head is looking forward. A caption at the bottom of the page reads "WAPOL'S SNACK BANSAI VOL. 20: BAKU BAKU FACTORY". Page 1: The page outlines the paths of the Straw Hat crew members. The top panel shows four vertical portraits of Nico Robin, Chopper (who is screaming in panic), Zoro, and Luffy (who is smiling). Text boxes narrate: "Luffy, Zoro, Chopper and Robin are forming the exploration team." and "Upper Yard is the place of a terrible survival game." The middle panel displays a map with a compass rose. A large arrow points from a drawing of a "Sacrificial altar" to a drawing of "Ancient ruins". Text boxes explain: "Starting from the sacrificial altar, their path is clear." and "Their destination is the ancient ruins that may contain a massive amount of gold." The bottom panel shows a more detailed map of their individual routes diverging from the sacrificial altar. Zoro's path wanders erratically upwards. Chopper's path goes straight to the right. Robin's path goes straight down. Luffy's path wanders downwards and to the right, accompanied by a musical note. Text boxes state: "Towards the south." and "They merely have to go forward..." Page 2: In the dense forest of Upper Yard, Chopper is running for his life. In the top panel, the large, round priest Yama and several Divine Soldiers are chasing him through the giant roots. Yama leaps through the air, yelling, "MEH!!!" The large central panel shows a close-up of Chopper running frantically towards the viewer. Tears are streaming down his face, and his mouth is wide open in a terrified scream. He cries out, "SOM'BODY, PLEAAASE HE'P ME!!!!" and "AH! SOM'BODY HE'P ME!!!!" Around him, the shouts of his pursuers echo: "MEH-!!" and "HAA-!!" Chopper looks back in confusion with a "?". The bottom panels show Chopper continuing his desperate sprint through the jungle foliage, with the sounds of "MEH-!!" and the rushing wind "WIIISH!!!" following closely behind him. Page 3: Chopper continues his frantic escape through the giant roots of the forest, panting heavily, "HAA!! HAA!! HAA!!" He looks back over his shoulder, hearing the ominous sounds of "TADAM!! TADAM!!" echoing behind him. In the middle panel, three Shandia warriors burst onto the scene, running fiercely. In the center is Braham, wearing a mask and wielding dual pistols. To his left is Kamakiri, holding a spear and a shield, and to his right is Genbo, carrying a large bazooka. Seeing even more intimidating figures joining the chase, Chopper's panic reaches a new extreme. In the bottom panel, he screams at the top of his lungs, "AAAA AAAAA AAAAH!!!!" with his tongue hanging out and tears flying from his eyes as he desperately tries to run even faster to escape the chaotic situation. Page 4: The Shandia warriors clash with the Divine Soldiers in mid-air. One of the soldiers yells, "THE MILITIA!!!" while another shouts, "SHANDIANS...!!!!" as they engage in combat. Suddenly, the chaotic battle is interrupted by a massive roar. The giant blue snake, Nola, rears its enormous head among the trees, its mouth wide open, letting out a deafening "GYAAA AAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAH-!!!" The sheer size of the snake dwarfs the surrounding forest and the combatants. In the bottom panel, the priest Yama is seen leaping away from the massive creature, his arms outstretched as he tries to put distance between himself and the giant serpent, while the sounds of destruction echo around them. Page 5: The chaotic battle continues amidst the giant roots. In the top panels, Braham fires his flash guns, while Kamakiri thrusts his spear. Chopper is caught in the middle of the madness, his eyes wide with terror as explosions go off around him. In the middle panel, Yama lands heavily on the ground, crouching low with his arms spread, looking serious and ready for combat. In the bottom panels, Chopper, completely overwhelmed by the fighting and the giant snake, resumes his frantic running. He cries out, "I SHOULDN'T 'VE COME HERE-!!!" and "...!!!" "HELP ME!!!" as he dashes away from the battlefield, leaving a trail of dust...
