## One Piece Chapter 291, pages 11-12: We are here! - Chapter: 291 - Pages: 11-12 - Characters: Mousse, Kalgara, Doctor Honner ### Summary Page 11: In the top panel, Mousse continues pleading with her father. "DON'T LET THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE FRIEND YOU MANAGED TO FIND BY CHANCE... AND THE SAVIOUR OF SHANDIA LEAVE WITH A SAD AND HEAVY HEART...!" Kalgara is stunned into silence. In the middle panels, a flashback shows Doctor Honner explaining the situation to Mousse. Mousse asks, "What!?" The doctor says, "This may sound like just an excuse, but I'll say it anyway for the sake of our admiral's honour." In the bottom panel, the doctor explains the grim reality. "The sacred forest of yours, had already died. The truly fearsome aspect of tree fever is the fact that it can infect both plants and humans. From forest to human, and human to forest, the disease will spread and spread. There've been countless small islands like yours which have been wiped out entirely from it." Page 12: In the top panel, Doctor Honner continues his explanation to Mousse. "Its because our admiral knows well, of tree fever's true terror, that he so desperately tried to get your people to listen to him. Risking the lives of him and his crew is nothing compared to the death toll that tree fever can wrack up. It's because he stepped in when he did that your island was saved without further deaths." In the middle panel, the doctor explains their actions. "We cut down trees all over this island's forest, including your sacred spirit trees, because they'd already long been infected by tree fever and it was too late to save them. If they weren't cut down immediately, they would go on to infect other plants, and eventually, your entire island." Mousse is shocked to hear this. "IS THAT TRUE...?" In the bottom panel, the doctor finishes. "But don't you worry. Yesterday, we finished our inspection of the whole forest. But we apologize for cutting your precious trees without even an explanation... I'm not sure if you'd forgive us even if we explained, but... Just remember that a botanist doesn't go around cutting down trees for no reason. IT'S NOT THAT OUR ADMIRAL HATES YOUR GODS OR THE CONCEPT OF GOD..."
