## One Piece Chapter 12, pages 2-5: DOG - Chapter: 12 - Pages: 2-5 - Characters: Buggy, Mohji, Richie, Buggy Pirates, Chouchou, Roronoa Zoro, Monkey D. Luffy ### Summary Page 2: A large splash panel reveals a man wearing a furry, bear-eared headpiece and outfit, sitting cross-legged on the back of a massive, fierce-looking lion with a thick mane. The lion growls with a "GRRRRRR!!" sound effect. In the background, the pirate crew cheers wildly, chanting "MOHJI! MOHJI! MOHJI!" Buggy's voice announces, "IT'S TIME FOR MOHJI'S WILD ANIMAL SHOW!!" The man on the lion calmly responds, "...YOU CALLED? CAPTAIN BUGGY..." A crew member shouts, "OOOOH! IT'S MOHJI!" A caption box identifies the man: "BUGGY'S FIRST MATE MOHJI THE LION TAMER". At the bottom of the page, two close-up panels show an exchange between Mohji and Buggy. Mohji asks, "MAY I TAKE RORONOA ZOLO'S HEAD?" Buggy, shown with a sinister grin highlighting his red nose, replies, "TAKE ANY PART YOU WANT!" Page 3: The page is mostly blank white space, focusing entirely on a small, white dog sitting alone in the center. The dog has a few scuff marks or dirt patches on its head and side. It sits squarely on the ground, looking forward with a determined, slightly furrowed brow and its tongue hanging out slightly. Page 4: Zoro, sweating and panting heavily ("HUF HUF"), carries the heavy iron cage containing Luffy down a street. Blood drips from the wound on his side with a "PLIP PLIP" sound. He says, "WE SHOULD BE FAR ENOUGH FROM THAT TAVERN. THEY PROBABLY WON'T CATCH UP TO US TOO SOON..." Zoro sets the cage down in the middle of the street with a loud "KLANG KLANG". Luffy, sitting cross-legged inside, says, "WE GOT AWAY... FOR NOW..." Zoro asks, "BUT WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO ABOUT THIS CAGE?" Luffy shifts, the cage scraping the ground ("KRSS KRSS"), and complains, "I CAN'T DO ANYTHING STUCK INSIDE THIS THING!" Suddenly, Zoro collapses face-first onto the ground with a heavy "FWUMP..!!". Lying flat on his stomach with his swords strapped to his side, he weakly says, "IT'S NO USE... LOST TOO MUCH BLOOD......GOT TO... REST..." Page 5: A small white dog sits quietly on the wooden porch of a nearby building, right next to where Zoro lies face-down. A soft "PO-ON" sound effect accompanies its appearance. From inside the cage, Luffy notices it and says, "HUH!!" He looks at the dog, asking, "WHAT'S WITH YOU, DOG?" The dog simply stares back in silence. Luffy continues, "DOG? HEY, A DOG!" Zoro manages to sit up, looking back over his shoulder at the animal. He dismissively says, "WHO CARES..." Luffy asks, "IS IT REAL? IT'S NOT MOVING..." Zoro, sweating and holding his wounded side, replies, "IT'S HIS BUSINESS IF HE MOVES OR NOT. OUR BUSINESS IS TO GET YOU OUT OF THERE." Luffy reaches his arm through the cage bars and pokes the dog right between the eyes with a "DOINK". The dog gets a surprised exclamation mark above its head as Luffy says, "MAYBE IT'S DEAD." In a flash, the dog lunges and bites down hard on Luffy's face with a loud "CHOMP!!". Luffy recoils, yelling "YOW!!" in pain.
