## One Piece Chapter 617, pages 6-8: Major Incident on Coral Hill - Chapter: 617 - Pages: 6-8 - Characters: Hody Jones, Roronoa Zoro, Neptune, Arlong ### Summary Page 6: Hody gathers seawater into his palm while the palace soldiers recognize the move. One shouts, "G - get down!! He's gonna do that!!!" Another says, "Crap... those water droplets...!!" Hody fires the technique: "Yabusame!!!" The explanatory note says the kanji means "arrow warrior shark" and is a homophone for "yabusame," horseback archery. The water droplets shoot out like arrows and rip across the palace. Guards scream "Aaa rghh hh!!!" as the attack spreads indiscriminately through friend and enemy. Neptune sees the danger from his bindings, and Zoro watches from the flooded hall, understanding that the water itself has become ammunition. Page 7: Zoro sees the attack's nature: "The droplets are... turning into arrows...!!!" Hody's Yabusame slices through the hall. Guards cry, "Aaah hhh!!" and Neptune roars, "Damn you...!! How dare you attack the elite soldiers of my army so carelessly!" Hody ignores the outrage and keeps firing. Neptune shouts, "Stop this at once, you fool!!!" and the palace shakes with the repeated impact of water arrows. The king cries, "Your majesty!!!" from the chaos, helpless to shield his own troops. The attack proves Hody's lack of loyalty: he does not care whether the victims are Neptune's soldiers, human prisoners, or anyone else, so long as the palace falls. Page 8: Hody turns Neptune's own criticism against him. He says, "You're the fool, Neptune!!! What kind of king takes a bullet for his servants?!! You really aren't fit for the throne at all!!!" Neptune's soldiers plead, "Your majesty!! Please, don't do this!!" while others cry, "That despicable!! Attacking defenseless prisoners!!" Hody's strength is described as "way beyond Arlong's!!" Zoro steps in before Hody can continue slaughtering. He says, "Ittoryu," then unleashes "Yakkodori," a one-sword flying slash that cuts through the water and crashes toward Hody. The page positions Zoro as the only immediate counterweight in the room: the palace is flooding, Hody is at full advantage, and yet Zoro can still answer with a compressed sword strike.
