## One Piece Chapter 5, pages 7-8: THE KING OF THE PIRATES AND THE MASTER SWORDSMAN - Chapter: 5 - Pages: 7-8 - Characters: Morgan, Roronoa Zoro, Koby, Marines, Shimotsuki Kuina, dojo students ### Summary Page 7: Captain Morgan stands imposingly, his massive axe-hand gleaming. He boasts to Zoro, "RORONOA ZOLO! PEASANTS AND PIRATES MAY TREMBLE AT YOUR NAME... BUT YOU'RE NO MATCH FOR THE GREAT ONE! YOU MAY BE A BARRACUDA... BUT I'M A GREAT WHITE SHARK!" The Marines line up and prepare their rifles, shouting, "TAKE AIM!" Koby watches in absolute terror, tears streaming down his face. Zoro, still tied to the cross, looks desperate. Sweat drips down his face as he thinks to himself, "I... I CAN'T DIE YET! THERE'S SOME-THING I HAVE TO DO..." Page 8: A flashback begins. A young Zoro is struck hard on the head with a bamboo sword and falls backward with a grunt. The other dojo students watch, announcing, "KUINA WINS AGAIN!! TWO-SWORD ZOLO LOSES!!" They note that Zoro is now 0 for 2000 against Kuina. Young Kuina stands over him, smiling confidently, and says, "PATHETIC... KIND OF WEAK FOR A BOY, AREN'T YOU?" The other students defend Zoro, arguing, "HEY! ZOLO'S NOT WEAK! YEAH! HE'S THE STRONGEST IN OUR DOJO! HE'S EVEN STRONGER THAN THE GROWN-UPS!" Kuina dismisses them, replying, "THAT SO? WELL, HE'S NOT AS STRONG AS ME! LOSERS SHOULD LEARN TO SUFFER DEFEAT IN SILENCE. EVEN IF HE CAN USE TWO SWORDS, HE'S STILL WEAK!" Zoro pounds the ground in frustration, thinking, "DARN! KUINA MAKES ME SO MAD! SHE THINKS SHE'S SO GREAT JUST BECAUSE SHE'S THE SENSEI'S DAUGHTER!" Meanwhile, the other boys blush and whisper, "SHE'S KINDA CUTE, THOUGH..."
