## One Piece Chapter 1030, pages 1-2: The Impermanence of All Things - Chapter: 1030 - Pages: 1-2 - Characters: CP0, Scratchmen Apoo, X Drake, Inbi, Fuga, Zanki, Kaido, Samurai, Komachiyo, Tama, Nami, Usopp, Beast Pirates ### Summary Page 1: Away from the battle, a CP0 agent reports by Den Den Mushi that the target is a Navy spy from what he can gather. In the Iwato Room, he says that is not important now and that all he cares about is whether the pirates and samurai want to take Kaido down. No matter how the war ends, he says, the winner is not coming out unscathed and the survivors will be easy pickings. Elsewhere, Scratchmen Apoo approaches Drake with Numbers Inbi, Fuga, and Zanki behind him. Apoo proposes, "How 'bout it? We could team up, swoop in and steal victory at the last moment!!" Drake answers that neither of them has a horse in the race and there is no point in going at each other. Apoo says opportunities like this only come around once in a lifetime. Page 2: Drake says he is speechless and asks whether Apoo honestly thinks Drake would trust him. Apoo snaps that trust has nothing to do with it and argues the arrangement would be mutually beneficial. The scene then shifts to the stairs between the first and second floors, where allies cough through spreading smoke and fire. Someone urges Komachiyo to hang in there, while others shout that the fire is spreading fast and they need to hurry. The page moves from opportunistic scheming to the immediate survival problem inside the burning castle.
