Luffy, Funkfreed ### Summary Page 5: On the bridge, Spandam tries to turn the exploding warship into proof that the pirates are finished. He laughs, "WAHAHAHA-HAHAHA!! HEY!! DID YOU SEE THAT!?" and declares, "THE STRAWHAT WHO WENT BERSERK ON THE WARSHIP HAS BEEN BLOWN UP INTO PIECES!! WAHAHA, TAKE THAT!! YOUR CAPTAIN IS DEAD!!!" Then he turns on Franky and Robin: "NOW!! HAND NICO ROBIN OVER!! THIS IS THE POWER OF THE BUSTER CALL I TRIGGERED!!" He boasts, "THIS IS JUSTICE, CUTTY FLAM!!! THEN MAYBE I CAN PARDON YOU FOR YOUR CRIME!!" Robin kneels, still shaken, while Spandam attacks her existence again: "BESIDES, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO PROTECT THAT WOMAN? YOU'RE NOT A PIRATE!! WOULD YOU TRUST A DANGEROUS WOMAN WITH OHARA BLOOD RUNNING IN HER VEINS OVER THE WORLD GOVERNMENT THAT PROTECTS YOU DAY AND NIGHT!?" Page 6: Franky answers Spandam with a fist to the face. The punch smashes Spandam backward as the soldiers shout, "CHIEF!!!" and one notes in disbelief, "HIS FACE CAN'T POSSIBLY SWELL ANY MORE THAN THAT!" Spandam refuses to stop. He draws his elephant sword, and the Marines panic, "HE DREW THE ZOUKEN 'FUNKFREED'!!" They warn, "THAT'S A STRONG ONE!!" Spandam commands the weapon to attack Robin: "LISTEN!! FUNKFREED, GIVE NICO ROBIN A FATAL WOUND WHILE SHE'S OFF-GUARD SO THAT SHE WON'T BE ABLE TO RESIST LATER...!!" The blade-elephant charges as he screams, "TAKE THIS!!!" Franky has knocked Spandam down, but Robin is still under immediate threat.
