## One Piece Chapter 897, pages 9-11: Pekoms' Cacao Island Escape Plan - Chapter: 897 - Pages: 9-11 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Pekoms, Charlotte Katakuri, Sanji, Charlotte Raisin, Charlotte Oven, Pedro ### Summary Page 9: The army spots Luffy and erupts. The cry spreads through the plaza: "It's Straw Hat, kill him...!!!" Luffy is seen exhausted and breathing, "Huff... huff..." while some enemies celebrate, "Yeeessssss!!" Others realize Pekoms had been hiding him and admit, "It's almost worth some praise that he was able to outwit big brother Katakuri and make it out here..." Luffy jumps away, but the soldiers spot him over the rooftops: "He's over the roof!!" Sanji prepares to intercept him, but someone warns, "You should know... That jumping makes you an easy target!" The page turns Luffy's escape into a shooting gallery. He has reached Cacao Island, but his body is spent and every enemy can see him. Page 10: Raisin moves to cut Luffy down. He unsheathes his blade and says, "Now, let's make this simple...!!" Luffy, barely moving, groans, "Ugh...!!" as Raisin closes in. Before the blade can finish the job, Sanji arrives and kicks Raisin away in a single clean strike. The sword flies loose, and the soldiers cry out in surprise. Luffy calls, "Sanji!!" while the crowd asks, "Who is that guy!?" Someone identifies the attacker as "Big brother Raisin!?" The page is direct: Sanji reaches Luffy at the crucial instant. Pekoms' plan did not fully protect Luffy, but it bought enough confusion for Sanji to cross the killing zone and take Luffy into his arms. Page 11: Sanji leaps away through the sky with Luffy slung over him. Luffy asks, "So you won," and Luffy answers simply, "Yep." Sanji says, "As expected of you!" but the enemies are ready for aerial escape. One warns, "How naive... We were prepared for something like this... Anyone can... use something as simple as Moonwalk-yu!!" Fighters launch after them through the air, and Oven gives a cruel order: "Gouge out his eyes, so that he'll never be able to see a full moon again!!" The soldiers attack Pekoms while he screams, "Stooooooppp iiiitttt, Gaoh!!" and Luffy calls out, "Pekoms!!" Sanji and Luffy are getting away, but the cost is immediate: Pekoms is being brutalized for trying to repay Pedro's sacrifice.
