A narration box announces, "NOLAND'S PUBLIC EXECUTION IS STARTING!" Noland, looking bruised and battered but resolute, speaks firmly to the crowd, "6 YEARS AGO, ON THE ISLAND OF JAYA IN GRAND LINE, I SAW AN IMMENSE GOLDEN CITY. I SOLEMNLY SWEAR THE CITY OF GOLD EXISTS." The massive crowd murmurs in uncertainty. An official announces, "We now call to the stand one of the sailors who accompanied Noland's voyage 6 years ago." The official asks the sailor, "Tell us. Are Noland's claims, True...?" The sailor coldly replies, "No. They are but bold-faced lies." The crowd erupts in shock and anger. People in the crowd yell, "What!? So Noland was... Nothing but a liar!?" "Then... Were all of his stories until now... Also lies!?" "THAT SCOUNDREL! HOW DARE HE DECEIVE THE WHOLE COUNTRY AND PLAY A FALSE HERO!" Page 8: Chaos breaks out in the crowd as Noland's original crew tries desperately to push their way to the front to save him. They shout, "THIS WAY, GUYS!" "Aghh! Our admiral's up on the execution stand!" "STOP! I'VE NEVER EVEN SEEN THAT SO-CALLED WITNESS OF YOURS!" "WHO THE HELL IS HE!? HE WASN'T A PART OF OUR CREW!" "Clear the way!" "ADMIRAL!" The King watches coldly from his balcony and orders his guards, "Restrain them." A guard replies, "Yes, sir." Noland, kneeling on the execution block, looks back at his struggling men, thinking, "My men... What happened!? Were you not able to meet Kalgara and the Shandia!?" The executioner raises a massive blade. An official reads the final sentence: "THE EXPLORER MONTBLANC NOLAND, IS HEREBY SENTENCED TO DEATH BY BEHEADING FOR HIS GREAT LIES!"
