## One Piece Chapter 638, pages 14-15: Runawayhoshi - Chapter: 638 - Pages: 14-15 - Characters: Hody Jones, Monkey D. Luffy, Vander Decken IX, Shirahoshi, Manboshi, Ryuboshi, Hoe, Neptune ### Summary Page 14: Hody attacks underwater with `Kirisame`, a technique glossed as "Slicing Shark." He slices through the water toward Luffy with the full advantage of a fishman in the ocean. Luffy sees the attack coming, but the water limits his movement and his air bubble makes every dodge dangerous. Hody crashes through the space around him, forcing Luffy to react inside an environment where he cannot breathe and cannot fight freely. Page 15: The princes intercept and scatter Hody's attack, keeping Luffy alive long enough to move. Luffy shouts, "Hey, take me to the deck of the ship, where I can fight!! I want to beat up that Hody and the other guy who throws stuff!!" He remembers leaving the tower with Shirahoshi and promising to protect her. The princes answer from their own shame: they promised the same thing, to become great warriors like their father and protect Shirahoshi with their lives, yet a mere drug allowed a common thug to stop them from standing up. They apologize to Luffy for ever doubting him and tell him to let them carry him to the deck.
