They are both dressed in simple Marine chore uniforms, complete with headbands, and are vigorously mopping a wooden floor in a hallway. They look exhausted and annoyed as they work. A small bird flies nearby. The caption at the bottom reads, "COBY AND HELMEPPO'S DIARY OF THEIR HARSH STRUGGLES VOL. 26 'CHORES, CHORES, CHORES AT THE MARINE HQ!'" Page 1: The story begins with a sudden flurry of action. In the first panel, someone's hands abruptly grab onto collars with a surprised "WHA?" and "HM?". In the next large panel, Luffy is sprinting at top speed, forcefully dragging Zoro and Sanji behind him by their shirts. Zoro and Sanji are flailing wildly, caught completely off guard by the sudden movement. Zoro yells in confusion and anger, "W-WHAT!? WHAT'S GOING ON? THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, LUFFY!? HEY!" while Luffy simply shouts forward, "LET'S GO!" Sanji screams in panic, "AGHHHHHH!" As Luffy continues to drag them roughly across the ground in the bottom panels, Zoro complains, "YOU'RE BREAKING MY NOSE!" and Sanji demands, "LET GO OF ME! WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA!?" Page 2: Back in the town of Whisky Peak, Vivi looks around anxiously, noting, "CARUE'S NOT HERE...!" Nami runs past her, urging, "HURRY VIVI!" A wide shot shows the town's buildings and the Straw Hat ship docked at the riverbank. Nami calls out, "HEY!" and sighs, "WHEW." Meanwhile, Zoro is still being dragged by Luffy, grunting, "NGH!" Luffy finally hauls Zoro and Sanji onto the ship's deck, dropping them unceremoniously. Luffy asks, "ARE YOU GUYS STILL SLEEPING? WE DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO GO LOOK FOR HIM!" Zoro, rubbing his head, replies, "HUH?" Sanji, dusting himself off, says, "GOOD, NOW GET ON. WE'RE READY TO LEAVE AT ANY MOMENT NOW." Luffy proudly announces, "I BROUGHT THE GUYS!" Page 3: On the ship, Nami angrily confronts Zoro and Sanji, yelling, "THAT'S WHERE YOU WERE!?" Sanji points to a large duck on the deck and asks, "YOU MEAN HIM?" Zoro adds, "HE GOT ON THE BOAT EVEN BEFORE ME." The duck, Carue, quacks. Vivi explains that Carue was missing and would not come even after whistling, but she could not leave him behind. Nami asks, "WHAT'S WRONG?" The ship's sail is suddenly unfurled with a loud flap, and Luffy declares, "WE'RE OFF!" Nami takes charge, ordering, "WE HAVE TO LEAVE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE! TURN THE BOAT AROUND TO HEAD DOWN THIS RIVER AND WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO REACH THE OCEAN!" Later, Luffy asks, "HEY, SO HOW MANY GUYS ARE GONNA COME AFTER US?" Vivi explains, "I CAN'T SAY FOR SURE. THERE'S REPORTEDLY 2000 PEOPLE WORKING FOR BAROQUE WORKS," adding that towns like Whisky Peak are not uncommon and that it is possible considering how serious knowing the boss' real identity is. Nami reacts, "YOU MEAN WE COULD HAVE A 1000 PEOPLE AFTER US!?" Page 4: A massive, fiery explosion erupts on the water, sending thick black smoke billowing high into the sky with a loud roar. The wreckage of a ship is seen burning intensely and sinking beneath the turbulent waves, leaving debris scattered across the surface. In the foreground, the dark silhouette of a woman wearing a cowboy hat is shown against the bright flames. She smirks confidently and says, "THINKING A DECOY WOULD WORK... HOW FOOLISH..." Page 5: On the Straw Hat ship, Usopp and Sanji are throwing a tantrum, complaining loudly to Nami. Usopp cries, "I MEAN, THE SUN HASN'T EVEN RISEN YET! COME ON, LET'S GO BACK! SO LET'S TAKE THINGS NICE AND EASY! WE ARE PIRATES, YOU KNOW! THAT'S RIGHT YOU HAVE NO IDEA IF WE'LL EVER COME ACROSS A TOWN AS NICE AS THAT ONE!" Sanji adds, "CAN'T WE STAY AT LEAST ONE MORE NIGHT!? THEIR PARTY WAS A BLAST AND THEY HAVE SO MANY CUTE GIRLS! WHAT'S GOING ON!? WHY DID WE HAVE TO SET SAIL SO SOON!?" Nami, looking calm and collected, simply says, "CONSIDER IT DONE." Zoro, looking annoyed, tells her, "I THINK YOU OUGHTA GO EXPLAIN TO THEM WHAT HAPPENED..." The ship sails away from the island as the sky begins to lighten. Someone notes, "IT'S ALMOST MORNING," and another adds, "THE FOG IS LIFTING." Page 6: A close-up reveals the woman in the cowboy hat, smiling confidently. She says, "BE CAREFUL NOT TO CRASH YOUR SHIP INTO THE ROCKS NEAR THE SHORE. AND CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ESCAPE. <3" The crew reacts in shock, turning to see the woman sitting casually on the railing of their ship. Usopp yells, "WHO'S THAT!?" The woman remarks, "WHAT A NICE SHIP THIS IS." Zoro immediately draws his sword, gripping the hilt tightly, ready for a fight. Page 7: Luffy yells at the intruder, "HEY! WHY'RE YOU ON OUR SHIP ANYWAYS!?" Vivi looks terrified, sweating profusely as she asks, "ARE YOU SAYING... IT WAS YOU WHO DID THAT TO IGARAM...!?" The woman smiles and replies, "I MET UP WITH MR. 8 JUST A LITTLE WHILE...
