## One Piece Chapter 648, pages 0-1: The Path Towards the Sun - Chapter: 648 - Pages: 0-1 - Characters: Wyper, Sea Kings, Shirahoshi, Noah ### Summary Page 0: The chapter title page gives "The Path Towards the Sun." The cover story reads, "From Shipdecks Across The World Vol. 31: Skypiea - Defenders of God." In Skypiea, Wyper and the other warriors stand proudly before the city, presented as protectors after the changes in their homeland. This is cover-story material and not part of the Fishman Island scene. Page 1: As the Sea Kings hold Noah away from destruction, Shirahoshi listens to the voices speaking directly to her. They call, "Princess Shirahoshi... we have waited so long... for the day you would be born." Shirahoshi asks, "For me...?" and they answer that Noah "was created to be pulled by us." The duty has been known since long ago, and Shirahoshi wonders, "Is that why the Noah is so big?" The Sea Kings say they know only that, once every few hundred years, "our king is born in the form of one of the merfolk." The reason remains "a mystery," but they tell her plainly, "You... have been our true king from the moment of your birth."
