Under the main One Piece logo, the title of Gedatsu's cover story continues with "Gedatsu's Carefree Life in the Blue Seas Vol. 23: 'A tunnel to "Carefree Hot Springs" opens in the desert country'". The illustration shows the mole-like digger, Dirt Boss, standing triumphantly in front of a grand wooden archway labeled "UKKARI hot-spring island". He wears a hard hat and bandages, raising his hands in peace signs. A large crowd of desert dwellers stands before him, cheering and raising their hands in celebration. Page 1: The story begins with a haunting memory of Nico Robin. Her face is shown in close-up as she speaks her parting words: "AFTER TODAY... WE WILL NEVER MEET AGAIN. THE SITUATION WILL WORSEN." On a windy rooftop in Water 7, the Straw Hat Pirates discuss her warning. Zoro, sitting with his swords, asks Chopper to confirm if she really said those exact words. Chopper, looking downcast, quietly replies, "UH HUH." Zoro analyzes the situation, noting that by saying they won't meet after "today," it sounds like she is announcing she is going to do something that will make things much worse for them. Page 2: Nami joins the discussion, pointing out that the attempt on Mayor Iceberg's life has already caused a massive uproar. She reasons that if someone wanted to make matters worse, there is only one logical next step. Her face is shown in a tense close-up as she delivers her conclusion: "THIS TIME... THE SUCCESSFUL ASSASSINATION OF THE MAYOR." Zoro agrees that it is the natural thing to assume. However, knowing that they are being framed, he warns that this could be a trap designed to lure them to the crime scene. If they are found there, they will automatically be blamed for the assassination. Page 3: Nami reacts defensively, shouting at Zoro for sounding like he already considers Robin an enemy. Zoro calmly replies that he is just exploring the possibilities and isn't taking sides. He places his hand on his sword hilt with a sharp "CHK" sound, explaining his philosophy: if he commits to believing one side and the truth turns out to be the opposite, the hesitation will slow him down when he needs to make a move. Luffy, listening quietly, looks up with absolute determination. He declares that if something is going to happen, it will be tonight. When Zoro asks if they are going to the crime scene, Luffy firmly answers, "WE GO." Page 4: Nami agrees with Luffy's resolve but brings up another crucial detail. She mentions that Sanji saw Robin walking with someone, and Iceberg also reported seeing a "masked person" who doesn't belong to their crew. She suggests this mysterious figure might be the reason behind Robin's sudden change in behavior. Chopper gasps, wondering if the masked man is controlling her. Zoro presents two possibilities: the optimistic guess is that she is being controlled, while the pessimistic guess is that Robin and the masked man are actually partners. Nami sighs, noting that knowing about a masked person doesn't help them much. She asks what their ultimate goal is, and Luffy shouts with fierce determination, "ROBIN!!!" Page 5: Luffy stands up, stretching his arms and declaring that sitting around and overthinking is just a waste of time; they will never find out the truth otherwise. Zoro points out the sheer difficulty of their task, reminding them that Robin is someone who has successfully evaded capture by the World Government for twenty years. Nami insists that going to the scene is their only option. Chopper pumps his fist, determined to do his best. With their minds made up, Luffy leads the way, shouting, "THEN... LET'S GO." Page 6: The scene shifts to the windy streets of Water 7, where shopkeepers are hurriedly closing up due to the impending Aqua Laguna storm. One shopkeeper, Happa Yamao, yells at a customer to go away and come back tomorrow because he needs to evacuate. A heavily bandaged hand reaches out, offering a small handful of coins. The bandaged customer, Usopp, desperately begs for whatever supplies he can get with his meager money: wood, tar, rope, nails, latches, and tin plating. Yamao tells him he is closing up, but Usopp continues to plead. Grudgingly, the shopkeeper relents, muttering that Usopp won't be able to buy much with such a small amount. Page 7: Usopp offers to trade some of his own tools to make up the difference, but Yamao angrily rejects the offer, stating they only sell and do not trade. Usopp weakly backs down. As he turns, he stumbles heavily, groaning in pain. Yamao notices his terrible physical condition and asks if he is okay, not...
