## One Piece Chapter 1026, pages 3-5: Tennozan: Turning Point - Chapter: 1026 - Pages: 3-5 - Characters: Kaido, Kozuki Momonosuke, Monkey D. Luffy, Yamato, Marys, Beast Pirates ### Summary Page 3: The Mary announces, "The two dragons are squaring off!!" Kaido, identified as the Azure Seiryu, is being challenged by the pink dragon ridden by "Straw Hat" Luffy. The dragon's identity is still unknown, but the broadcaster says there is no doubt it is hostile. Yamato, seeing Momonosuke's dragon form, thinks that if he could turn into a monster like that, he would actually be useful to the others. He also realizes that Yamato must have been the one keeping Kaido busy. The page frames Momonosuke's appearance as a battlefield shock: Kaido's dragon form is no longer unmatched in the sky. Page 4: Kaido prepares to use his fire breath. Luffy notices and shouts, "He's about to use his fire breath!" then orders Momo, "All right! Counter it with your own breath!" Momonosuke panics, "Whaaat?! I can't do that!!" Kaido unleashes "Blast Breath!!!" while Momo cries out in fear. After the blast, Momo insists, "R-remember... I'm in no position to fight right now!" Luffy simply calls, "Hey, Momo!!" and gets his attention. The page shows that Luffy is not treating Momo as a helpless passenger anymore; he is pushing him to act like a dragon and a future shogun. Page 5: Luffy takes over the attack, stretching his arm and calling, "Gomu Gomu no... Elephant..." Momonosuke protests, "What?! Luffy, wait!! I can't!! That's impossible..." Luffy finishes with "Gun!!" and drives Kaido into the ground with a huge blow. As Kaido reels, Luffy tells Momo, "Bite Kaido!!" Momo freezes and stammers, "No way, no way, no way, no way..." Luffy's strategy is direct: if Momo cannot yet breathe fire or fight like Kaido, he can still bite the man who has terrorized him and Wano for years.
