The cover story continues with "CARIBOU'S KEHIHIHIHI IN THE NEW WORLD - VOLUME 15 - I WOKE UP TO AN OLD HAG." The illustration shows Caribou lying in bed under a spotted blanket while an old woman sits beside him with food or medicine, continuing his separate New World side story after he washed up on another island. This page is useful because it confirms the chapter title and cover-story installment, but it is separate from Luffy's fight with Caesar and Law's move against S.A.D. Page 1: The chapter opens immediately after Luffy's attack on Caesar. Caesar's men scream, "MASTER!!!" and Caesar himself cries out, "...MA...!!!" as the blow sends smoke and debris bursting through the room. Luffy lands in the cloud of dust, battered but standing, while Momonosuke's small dragon head appears nearby and Brownbeard lies injured on the floor. The silence after the impact is heavy: Caesar's own broadcast had just revealed the scale of his crimes, and Luffy has answered by reaching him in person. No explanation is needed from Luffy's side. His stance in the dust says that the chase through Punk Hazard has finally reached the man responsible for the children, the soldiers, Shinokuni, and the hidden underworld operation. Page 2: Caesar staggers after the hit, sputtering strange curses and gasps: "POGABE BAPPU," "TCHT!!" and "FUGABAW!!" A translator note renders the outburst as "SHIT!!" He is furious that Luffy survived and that his intimidation failed. Caesar says, "DYOU!!! DERE DYOU DEVEN LISTENING? I'DE GOT... PRODECTING ME..." and names the backers behind him: "...DHIM!! DAT INSANE PIRATE!! DOFLAMINGO!!" He insists that Doflamingo controls the New World's underworld: "DAT GUY, DHE'S ALL I NEED!! DA MAN WHO CONTROLS DA NEW WORLD'S DUNDERGROUND...!!" Caesar lists the businesses protected by that power: "WEAPONS... ARMS... DRUGS!! DALL DOSE DERRIBLE DINGS..." He offers Luffy a way out, saying, "I'M DILL WILLING DO FORGIB DYOU...!! IF DYOU APOLOGIZE NOW!!" but also warns that laying a hand on him will bring "DA WRATH OF DOSE MONSTERS!!" Luffy listens without being moved. Caesar is trying to make himself untouchable by naming larger criminals, but Luffy has already crossed that line with his fist. Page 3: Caesar escalates from threats to attack. Luffy watches as Caesar shouts, "GASTILLE!!" and fires a concentrated gas blast. The spectators recognize it in terror: "THERE IT IS!! THE GAS BURNER THAT CAN EVEN MELT IRON!!!" Caesar laughs, "SHURO RORORO RORO!! EAT DAT!!" The blast tears across the floor in a massive white surge, hot and destructive enough to make everyone nearby panic. The attack shows why Caesar is dangerous even when cornered. He is not merely a scientist hiding behind Doflamingo; his Gas-Gas ability lets him weaponize the room itself, producing a beam that can melt metal and erase anyone caught in front of him. Page 4: Caesar believes Gastille has finished Luffy. He laughs, "HE'S GONE FOR GOOD... GYAHHHH!!" and then mocks the idea that there is any stronger threat inside the laboratory: "BUT THERE'S ALREADY A 'MONSTER' IN THIS LAB... VERGO!!" He continues, "HA... THAT'S IT, ISN'T IT! YOU JUST DON'T GET IT!! THE CONVERSATION WENT RIGHT OVER YOUR HEAD!!" As he forms more gas around himself, Caesar boasts, "SHURORORO!! NOBODY CAN MATCH HIS COLOR OF ARMAMENTS. SMOKER... AND EVEN LAW WILL DIE!! YOU AND YOUR CREW AS WELL, YOU'LL ALL..." Luffy cuts through the speech with action, driving a "D-BLL ARRGGHHHH!!" strike into Caesar's body. The page keeps Caesar's pattern consistent: every time he hides behind a name or a weapon, Luffy answers by closing the distance and hitting him. Page 5: The narration shifts to Shinokuni, the deadly gas that hardens and kills its victims. A map shows that it is seeping into the laboratory and filling B-Block, where the Straw Hats, Marines, and children currently are. The countdown is nearly over: "B-BLOCK: TIME UNTIL SHINOKUNI SATURATION" is now "5 MINUTES!!" Someone shouts, "WHAT-EVER!! SHUT UP!!" while another says, "WE SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT UP TO THEM ALREADY IF YOU WERE JUST RUNNING STRAIGHT." The survivors are running through the only possible escape route, heading for the first floor of R-Block, where Luffy and Caesar are fighting. One child says, "I'M STILL A LITTLE HAZY... IT'S LIKE COMING OUT OF A DREAM..." and a voice urges, "HURRY UP EVERYONE!! DO YOUR BEST TO KEEP RUNNING!!" The page reminds the reader that the fight with Caesar is...
