Luffy, Sanji, Usopp, Baratie cooks, Krieg Pirates, Roronoa Zoro, Dracule Mihawk, Johnny, Yosaku ### Summary Page 4: The page opens with a large, dramatic panel of Monkey D. Luffy screaming in absolute terror and rage, his mouth wide open and eyes bulging as he yells, "ZORO! AHHHHHH!". Below this, a panel shows Sanji looking utterly shocked, his cigarette dangling from his mouth as he asks, "WHY...!?". Next to him, Usopp is in tears, screaming "BRO!" in despair. The bottom half of the page is a wide shot of the Baratie restaurant's deck. The cooks and the Krieg Pirates are all staring in stunned silence at the aftermath of the duel. One of the onlookers exclaims, "EVEN PIRATE HUNTER ZORO COULDN'T COME CLOSE!". Another person, sweating nervously, adds, "THIS IS THE POWER OF THE GRAND LINE... THE POWER OF THE WORLD...!" The sheer scale of Mihawk's strength has left everyone paralyzed with fear and awe. Page 5: Sanji is shown sweating and stressed, his thoughts racing as he watches the scene. He thinks, "THAT DAMN BASTARD'S OUT OF HIS MIND! HIS ENEMY WAS THE WORLD'S STRONGEST! THE RESULT'S OBVIOUS! IF IT'S GONNA MEAN YOUR DEATH, THEN JUST THROW YOUR DAMN AMBITION AWAY!". A flashback panel shows Zoro's determined face as he previously stated, "EVER SINCE I'VE DECIDED TO BECOME THE WORLD'S GREATEST SWORDSMAN, I THREW AWAY MY ATTACHMENT TO LIFE." Sanji, unable to comprehend this level of reckless determination, yells out loud, "IT'S SIMPLE! JUST THROW AWAY THAT AMBITION!". The bottom half of the page shows a dramatic silhouette of Zoro falling backward into the ocean with a large splash, his two remaining swords slipping from his grasp. In the background, Dracule Mihawk stands calmly on the floating wreckage of Don Krieg's ship, smoothly sheathing his massive black sword with a "TURN" sound effect. Page 6: Johnny and Yosaku, Zoro's bounty hunter friends, desperately dive into the ocean after him. Yosaku cries out "BRO!" while Johnny yells "DAMN IT!" as they plunge into the water to save their drowning friend. Meanwhile, Luffy is consumed by rage. He stretches his arms far back, preparing a powerful attack. He screams "DAMN YOU!" at the top of his lungs. In a dynamic wide panel, Luffy launches himself through the air like a slingshot, flying directly towards Dracule Mihawk, who is standing calmly on the floating debris of the destroyed galleon. Luffy's fist is pulled back, ready to strike the Warlord in retaliation for what he did to Zoro.
