He is wearing a dark hat with his signature X mark, a light-colored button-up shirt, and dark boots. He holds a wooden bucket filled with food and is surrounded by several sheep and goats, feeding them. Birds fly in the sky in the background. Page 1: Inside the Rain Dinners casino, the giant Bananadile that swallowed the key suddenly burps loudly, "URP!", and spits out a large, round object. "Something came out!" The object, a massive sphere, splashes heavily into the flooding water of the room. Sanji, standing on top of the iron cage, looks down at it. "IS IT THE KEY!?" Inside the cage, Nami, Usopp, Luffy, and Zoro stare at the floating sphere in confusion. Nami asks, "WHAT IS THAT!?" Zoro replies, "THAT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ANY KEY I'VE EVER SEEN!" Page 2: The large sphere floating in the water suddenly cracks open. A voice from inside gasps, "W... water...! I'm saved, aren't I...!?" "Release! DORU DORU BALL..." Sanji looks at the opening sphere in shock, "WHAT THE HELL!?" To everyone's surprise, Mr. 3 emerges from the wax ball, covered in slime. Smoker, still trapped in the cage, asks, "What was he doing inside a bananadile!?" Nami exclaims, "Mr. 3!?" Luffy yells, "It's 3!" Zoro adds, "Hey, that's...!" Mr. 3, striking a pose, explains, "I used the last of my strength to make a Doru Doru Ball to hide safely inside, you see...! Just before I was eaten, Heh heh... You've underestimated me, Crocodile! I thought I was a goner for the longest time! AHHHH! I'M BACK, BABY!" Page 3: Mr. 3 notices something stuck to the side of his wax ball. "Hm? What's this odd key stuck to my Doru Doru Ball...?" He boasts, "Even for me, this was a most brilliant plan, if I must say so myself!" Suddenly, Sanji delivers a powerful kick to Mr. 3's face, sending him flying. "GIVE IT HERE!" Sanji shouts. Mr. 3 screams, "AHHH! THAT KEY! AGHHHH! YOU PIRATES ARE...!" Mr. 3 lands hard on the ground. "Hm? You want this key? Hold on..." Sanji stands over him menacingly. "A quickly-flooding room, An iron cage... And a key... Ah, of course!" Mr. 3 realizes. "I've now grasped the current situation, I believe..." Sanji demands, "So you're Mr. 3... Hand that key over already." Mr. 3 smirks and tosses the key away. "Fine, here you... GOOO!" Sanji watches in shock as the key flies through the air. "WHA!?" Page 4: The key splashes into the deep water, out of reach. Nami panics, "SANJI, WE DON'T HAVE ANY MORE TIME!" Usopp remarks, "Whoa, that guy's brain works fast!" Luffy growls, "That bastard..." Mr. 3 laughs triumphantly, "Hahaha! I don't know who you are, But you look like one of their pals! Go find the key if you can! But... I can't guarantee you'll have the time to search for it leisurely!" Usopp yells, "SANJI, WAIT!" Sanji glares at Mr. 3, "Son of a..." Mr. 3 continues to laugh, mocking them. Sanji then gets an idea. "I think it just might be possible, For Mr. 3 to create a duplicate key for us using his Doru Doru power..." Mr. 3's laughter abruptly stops, his eyes widening in horror as he realizes Sanji's plan. Page 5: Sanji forces Mr. 3 to use his wax powers to create a key in the cage's lock. With a "CREAK..." and a "CLICK!", the cage door unlocks. Mr. 3, battered and bruised with a lump on his head, sighs, "Aww, shucks. Eheheh." Sanji pats him on the shoulder, "Oh, pretty good, Candle-man." Inside the cage, Nami points out, "But the problem is it's still blocked by all those bananadiles!" Sanji replies, "I think the underwater passage they were planning to walk through is the way to Alubarna! Let's hurry!" Sanji then leaps into action, delivering a powerful kick to one of the giant bananadiles, sending it flying with an "UGH!" Page 6: Sanji continues to beat up the bananadiles, shouting, "HAHHH! ANY MORE LEFT THAT WANTS A PIECE OF ME!?" Nami, watching the defeated creatures, says, "...I don't think we need to worry about that anymore." Usopp reassures Vivi, "Don't beat yourself up, Vivi! It's these guys that are weird for being stupidly strong!" Vivi, sweating, replies, "EVEN RUNNING AWAY FROM ONE OF THOSE GAVE ME SO MUCH TROUBLE..." Mr. 3 struggles in the water, "Dammit, I can't use all of my power with all this water around!" Suddenly, the room begins to collapse further. "THE UNDERWATER PASSAGE COLLAPSED TOO!" someone shouts. "RUN! RUN THROUGH THE OTHER EXIT!" Vivi cries out, "AGHHH! THE WALL JUST CRUMBLED! IT'S YOUR FAULT FOR GOING OVERBOARD AGAINST THE CROCS!" Zoro is seen carrying Smoker through the water. "AGHHH!" "DAMN IT!" "GYAA!" Nami yells, "USOPP'S HIT HIS HEAD ON A ROCK!" Page 7: Outside the collapsing casino, Sanji pulls a waterlogged Luffy onto the dry ground. "You alive...
