Below is a cover story titled "GADUS' LIFE IN BLUE SEA VOL. 14 'FLAWLESS VICTORY'". The illustration features Gedatsu standing triumphantly with his arms raised in the air, wearing his usual Skypiea attire. He is standing on top of a giant, defeated mole that is lying on its back with its tongue hanging out. A pickaxe is stuck in the ground nearby. Page 1: Nami is kneeling beside a heavily injured and bleeding Usopp in a city street. She looks concerned and says, "HE'S INJURED REALLY BADLY... BETTER NOT MOVE AROUND TOO MUCH..." She continues, "USOPP... WAIT HERE. I'LL GO BACK TO THE SHIP. I'LL GET HELP AND I'LL TELL CHOPPER TO TEND YOUR WOUNDS HERE." She stands up, adding, "I THINK THE FRANKYS' BASE IS JUST AHEAD, WE'LL DEFINITELY GET THEM BACK!!" Suddenly, Usopp weakly grabs her arm. He mutters, "DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE MONEY..." Nami gasps in shock, "<SFX> GASP", "!!!". She turns back to him, yelling, "DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE MONEY... CAN YOU HEAR ME, USOPP!? WAIT HERE!!" Usopp's face is battered, bandaged, and covered in blood as he lies on the cobblestone street surrounded by onlookers. Page 2: Nami runs away from Usopp, looking back over her shoulder as she yells, "I'LL BE RIGHT BACK!!" She then jumps onto a Yagara bull and speeds through the waterways of Water 7. She urges the creature on, "FASTER, YAGARA!! NII! NII!! NIII!!!" The Yagara splashes through the water, causing background citizens to panic and shout, "AH!! THAT BULL HAS GONE BERSERK!!" As she rides, Nami recalls a conversation with the Galley-La shipwrights. In a flashback panel, Iceburg, wearing his Galley-La hat, tells her, "WE CAN NOT FIX THAT SHIP. NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU PAY..." Nami looks distressed as she thinks, "WE WERE FINALLY... ABLE TO FIX GOING MERRY..." Page 3: Nami continues her frantic ride on the Yagara bull through the city's canals. She grips the reins tightly, thinking, "BE IT REPAIRING, REBUILDING, OR BUYING A NEW SHIP... WE'LL NEED THAT WHOLE 300 MILLION, IF WE WANT TO SURVIVE IN THE SEA BEYOND..." The Yagara speeds forward, crying out "NII NII!!" as it splashes water everywhere. Nami is determined, thinking, "WE HAVE TO... GET THAT MONEY BACK!!" The scene shifts to a wide view of the massive Galley-La headquarters at Dock 1, towering over the city. Nami's thoughts continue, "YOU'RE SERIOUS...!? THAT'S WHAT... THE CARPENTER SAID...?" Page 4: Back at the Going Merry, Sanji, Chopper, and Zoro are discussing the ship's condition. Sanji, smoking a cigarette, says, "THIS SHIP IS... THEY CAN'T REPAIR IT? EVEN IF WE PAY THEM?" Chopper looks devastated, crying out, "WHY... DID IT END UP LIKE THIS...?" Sanji replies, "I DON'T KNOW. I WONDER WHAT LUFFY AND THE OTHERS DECIDED... THOSE THREE PROBABLY CAME UP WITH A GOOD ANSWER AT THE SHIPYARD ALREADY." He looks at the ship and adds, "...ARE YOU SURE HE WASN'T JUST EXAGGERATING? JUST LOOK! THE SHIP LOOKS AS GOOD AS ALWAYS. DIDN'T IT MAKE IT ALL THE WAY HERE FROM EAST BLUE WITH US...?" Zoro, standing nearby, responds calmly, "THAT IS PROBABLY THE REASON WHY IT'S BROKEN. A PERSON GETS STRONGER WITH WOUNDS, BUT... FOR A SHIP, THE WOUNDS ONLY STACK UP AND WEAKEN IT MORE AND MORE." The Going Merry is shown docked, looking peaceful but worn. Page 5: Sanji looks frustrated and says, "I JUST CAN'T ACCEPT THIS... BUT I LIKE MERRY VERY MUCH!!" Zoro, sitting with his arms behind his head, replies, "...EVERYONE DOES... BUT THERE'S NO WAY TO SAVE IT..." Sanji thinks to himself, "I WONDER WHAT WOULD USOPP THINK IF HE HEARS THIS..." Chopper looks down sadly, thinking, "MERRY IS BROKEN... ROBIN IS MISSING... THIS AFTERNOON IS FILLED WITH TROUBLE..." Suddenly, Chopper spots someone approaching and yells, "!", "EVERYONE!!" Sanji turns and says, "EH? NAMI IS BACK!!" He then notices she is alone and asks, "HUH? WHY IS SHE ALONE? WHERE ARE LUFFY AND USOPP!? NAMI!! DID SOMETHING HAPPEN!?" Nami is seen running towards them in the distance. Page 6: The scene transitions to a new location, indicated by a caption box: "A CORNER IN WATER SEVEN NORTHEAST BEACH". Another box labels the area as the "SCRAP FACTORY". A large, eccentric building comes into view, with a sign above the door reading "FRANKY HOUSE". The building has a unique design, resembling a face with large circular windows for eyes and a star above the double doors. From inside the building, loud, excited voices can be heard shouting, "WOW!!!", "WOOW!!", "200 MILLION!?", "200 MILLION!!" Page 7: Inside the Franky House, the Franky Family is throwing a wild celebration. Zambai and other members are cheering enthusiastically. One member yells, "WHAT DO YOU THINK, BRO!!?...
