The animals form a playful vertical tower beside carved poles and half-buried objects, while Chopper balances at the top in his hat. The page does not continue the Thriller Bark battle, but it clearly gives the chapter title and a separate cover image. Page 1: Oars lies smashed into the ruins of Thriller Bark, and the crowd erupts in disbelief and relief. "Awesome, Strawhat!!!" someone shouts, while another cries, "You beat Oz!!!" Lola and the Rolling Pirates rush toward Luffy, calling, "Luffy!!" and "Hey, Luffy!! Hang in there!!" One of them worries aloud, "We made you do something pretty reckless! Are you okay!?" Luffy has used the strength of one hundred shadows, and even Lola understands the cost: "He must be totally exhausted. He was using the strength of 100 shadows, after all." But the victory is not complete. The victims remember the real condition of their survival. "Anyway, we've got to return all of the victims' shadows quickly!!" someone says. "That's right!! Hurry!!" Another points toward the brightening sky: "The eastern sky is getting bright!! Morning is coming!!" Usopp adds the panic that makes everything urgent: "We've got four people without shadows, too!! But how do we get the shadows back!?" Page 2: The fallen Oars still sprawls across the wreckage, but the victims realize the rule has not changed. Someone says, "That really is a problem... We wanted Strawhat to do it, but..." Another observes, "It looks like he can't even move." The only one who can release the stolen shadows is Moria: "Moria controls all of the shadows that were put in the zombies... Unless he gives the order 'return to your original owners,' the shadows won't return!!" The conclusion is bitter and immediate. "Standing around won't do us any good!! We have to wake Moria up somehow and force him to say it!!" one victim declares, while another groans, "Unless we get our shadows back, there was no point in beating him!" Then the ground shakes. Debris shifts around Oars, the crowd stiffens, and a terrified silence turns into screams: "... ?" "Eh..." "Uwaaaa aahh!!!" Page 3: Against every expectation, Oars rises again. His huge, battered body pushes itself upright with a low "Giku," and the crowd stares up at him in horror. Someone gasps, "...!!?" Another can hardly believe what they are seeing: "O... Oz is standing again!!!" The ruined mansion looms behind him as Oars stands over the tiny figures below, his chest torn open and his face dark with rage. A victim shouts the obvious impossibility: "He took such a beating! He shouldn't even be able to move!!" Yet the giant demon is moving. The earlier victory over Nightmare Luffy's final attack suddenly becomes only a wound, not an ending, and the people who thought they had survived realize that the zombie body can still fight without feeling pain the way a living body would. Page 4: Fear washes through the crowd as Oars stands again. The shadowless victims cry, "How could this be...? It's over...!!" and "The entire Strawhat crew has already been beaten...!!" One adds, "The shadows that we collected have all been used, too...!! We don't have enough power left to beat him!!!" Moria's zombie grins through the damage and growls, "That didn't hurt one bit...!!" The victims despair: "There was just no way we could win against zombies... He really is... immortal!!!" The night is nearly gone, and panic breaks their courage. "We're at our limit...!! Night is almost over...!!" someone says. "There's just no way out of our life in the darkness..." Others start to flee: "Let's give up!!! Staying here would just mean death...!!! Let's hurry... back to the forest!! That dark forest... where the light doesn't reach... let's go back..." Then a sharp "Za!!" interrupts them as someone arrives in their path. Page 5: Zoro steps out of the dust, battered but upright, swords in hand. Behind and around him, the victims stare in disbelief. Zoro says, "I don't know what happened to Luffy, but... he did plenty." A panicked survivor warns him, "H... Hey, wait a second! If you move around with those wounds, you'll die!!!" but Zoro keeps walking. The crowd looks from him to Oars and cannot understand the strength still left in the Straw Hats: "He took an attack from that giant head-on... and he's still standing...!?" Lola adds, "I can't tell which one is the zombie...!!" Meanwhile, others notice the wounded crew they had moved away are gone. "Hey!! Where did the people we moved over here go!?" someone yells. Another answers, "Eh!? I don't know!! They weren't even conscious." "There's no way they could've gone anywhere, right!?" A final voice asks, "Where did...
