A voice narrates, "The day we arrived at Jaya! May 21, 1122." Laughter rings out, "GYAHAHAHA," as someone shouts, "NOLAND! NOLAND!" The scene shifts to Montblanc Cricket in the present, who is smoking a cigarette and holding a hand to his ear, continuing the story: "Upon arriving at the island, we were immediately greeted with a cry from a most unusual bird from the forest, and a loud bell-ring." Below him, a silhouette of a bird with a large beak sits on a branch. Next to it, a massive golden bell is shown ringing loudly. Cricket's face is shown in close-up, smiling around his cigarette as he recounts the tale. The narration continues, "The sound from this enormous golden bell..." Page 2: The narration continues: "...Reverberated throughout the entire island, as if proudly proclaiming, the former glory of its ancient city. When reminded of the civilizations that have risen and fallen throughout the ages across this vast sea, we, who barely live a few decades at most and yet act as if we know all there is to this world, were too awestruck to utter even a single word. And so we simply stood there, silently listening to the bell ringing..." As the story is told, the Straw Hat crew is shown captivated. Luffy chews on a piece of meat with a wide grin. Zoro smiles while holding a bottle, and Chopper looks on in awe. Below, a lively party is in full swing. The crew and the Saruyama Alliance are drinking, eating, and cheering. Usopp and Chopper have chopsticks stuck in their noses and mouths, dancing wildly on a table. Sanji sits back with a drink, laughing, "UHAHAHAHA." Nami and Robin sit at the table, smiling. Nami remarks, "Amazing, a giant bell made from gold!" and "What a poet, that Noland!" Sanji adds, "Ha, so you do like Noland after all, don'cha, mister!?" Masira and Shoujou are also seen enjoying the feast.
