## One Piece Chapter 521, pages 2-3: Hoof of the Soaring Dragon - Chapter: 521 - Pages: 2-3 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Boa Hancock, Marguerite, Sweet Pea, Aphelandra, Boa Sandersonia, Boa Marigold ### Summary Page 2: Luffy presses Hancock about the petrified women: "You can do something like that, right? Turn these guys back to normal!!" He insists, "They were just helping me out. They didn't do anything wrong!!" Hancock's eyes narrow, but she answers, "I certainly can undo the petrification." Then she reveals the condition: "But... you said there's somewhere you want to go by boat, right? I will take only one of your requests...!! Either I change them back or I let you leave the island!! Choose one and abandon the other!! Show your true nature, you man...!!" Luffy stares at her as she makes the test explicit. Hancock expects him to reveal selfishness, forcing him to choose between his own escape and the lives of Marguerite, Sweet Pea, and Aphelandra. Page 3: Luffy answers without hesitation. He drops forward with a huge grin and says, "Okay!! Thanks!! Then please save these guys!!" Hancock, Sandersonia, and Marigold are shocked by how quickly he abandons the chance to leave. Luffy even bows deeply, saying, "Thank you very much!!" The sisters stare in silence, sweating and wide-eyed. Sandersonia reflects, "... A man with that kind of Haki... in order to help those who saved him... is willing to lower his head..." and another thought completes the point: "Without a moment's hesitation..." Luffy's simple choice overturns Hancock's test. He chooses the women who helped him over his own urgent journey, revealing a loyalty and humility the sisters did not expect from a man or an enemy.
