The cover story panel, "Ace's Great Search for Blackbeard Vol. 21", is titled "The Marine who saved both the man and the intelligence is on fire". It shows Portgas D. Ace walking away from a burning Marine ship. He is carrying an unconscious Marine officer over his shoulder and holding a briefcase marked "Top Secret" in his other hand. Flames are licking at Ace's back and the Marine's uniform. In the foreground, a shocked Marine with a large mustache and glasses watches them. Page 8: Roronoa Zoro is shown mid-swing, his swords drawn, as he shouts, "MAKE THE GIANT JACK STALK, FALL OVER WESTWARDS." Below him, a massive section of the Giant Jack beanstalk is sliced through, debris flying as the huge plant structure shifts with a loud "DOOOM!!" sound. Someone cries out "AGHH!" in the background. At the bottom of the page, Usopp, Nico Robin, Wiper, Gan Fall, and Aisa watch in shock. Usopp, sweating and wide-eyed, yells, "WE'RE COUNTING ON YOU! YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE HERE WHO CAN CUT DOWN SUCH A RIDICULOUSLY HUGE THING!" He stammers, "I-I-IS HE... IS HE ALRIGHT!?"
