Luffy ### Summary Page 9: Chopper sits exhausted after Monster Point and explains the cost: "After I use Monster Point, my whole body goes so numb I can't walk for about two or three hours. I can still treat the injured, though! Is anybody hurt?" Sanji immediately uses the moment to collapse across Robin's lap, saying, "Robin-chan! I used my ultimate technique and my whole body aches as well! Rest me on your lap!" Robin answers, "Yeah, you are, idiot." Chopper adds, "Man, that's one freaky doctor!!" Then the crowd sees Shirahoshi descending: "It's the princess!! Look, over there!! The king as well!!" Below, Hody and Van der Decken are dragged into view, chained and defeated. Page 10: Shirahoshi returns to the plaza and cries to her father, "Father! I must apologize for worrying you." Neptune answers, "...I'm just glad you're all right." The crowd recognizes the prisoners: "Hody...!!" and "Vander Decken!!" Shirahoshi looks at Hody in silence, remembering the terror he caused. The royal guards present the captured men to the citizens: "Citizens of Fishman Island, have no fear!! These men... will roam free no longer!!" Hody and Van der Decken sit bound together in heavy chains, their rebellion reduced to a public display of defeat. Page 11: The people stare at Hody's monstrous face and shudder. Someone says, "I was so scared... to think a guy like that was living so close by, just down in the Fishman District..." Others whisper, "C... Captain Hody...!!" and "He looks like a monster..." Then attention snaps to the returning heroes: "...and Princess Shirahoshi!!" "It's Straw Hat Luffy..." and "Why, that must be Luffy-san coming back!!" But Shirahoshi is crying in terror, not celebration. She begs, "Please, somebody help!!! It's Luffy-sama!!! His bleeding just won't stop!!! He pushed himself so hard for our sake...!!!"
