## One Piece Chapter 550, pages 0-1: Marine Headquarters - Chapter: 550 - Pages: 0-1 - Characters: Usopp, Masked Boin Archipelago inhabitant, Civilians, Whitebeard, Marines, Portgas D. Ace ### Summary Page 0: Chapter title page: Chapter 550, "Marine Headquarters." The cover begins Usopp's short focused serial, "Usopp's 'I'll Die If I'm On My Own' Disease," with Vol. 1 titled "The Forest of Gluttony on the Boin Archipelago." Usopp sits in an impossible forest of oversized, tempting food-plants, eating while strange fruit, flowers and vines crowd around him. A masked local figure watches nearby. This is a separated-crew cover story rather than part of the Marineford countdown, but it sets Usopp's new Boin Archipelago situation in motion. Page 1: Around the world, civilians wait for Ace's execution and Whitebeard's possible arrival. In the South Blue, people say, "There are only three hours left..." and wonder whether Whitebeard is already there. In the East Blue, others ask if he will really show up, saying even Whitebeard is getting old and has not made major news in years. An older man calls him "a pirate from another age" and asks whether the Marines could lose. Another voice says that win or lose, there will be many deaths, and that it would be best if Whitebeard never showed up and the execution simply ended.
