## One Piece Chapter 637, pages 9-11: The Ancient Ark - Chapter: 637 - Pages: 9-11 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Hody Jones, Shirahoshi, Noah, Jinbe ### Summary Page 9: Luffy's counterattack sends Hody smashing into the ground. The enemy cries, "Captain Hody!!!" while Shirahoshi watches with admiration: "Luffy-sama... Such strength you have...!!" The people begin cheering, "All right!! Go Straw Hat Luffy!!" and even Hody's followers are forced to admit that this is the strength of a world-famous pirate. Then the mood changes. A vast shadow falls over the plaza, and someone asks, "What's this?! The whole plaza's gone dark..." Page 10: The source of the shadow appears overhead: the Noah, descending from the Fishman District. The enormous ark looms over Fishman Island while people stare up and scream, "Whaaaaaaaaap?!!" and "The Noah, from the Fishman District?!!" Its size dwarfs the plaza and the buildings beneath it. What had seemed like a battle between Luffy and Hody is suddenly overshadowed by an ancient ship large enough to threaten the entire island. Page 11: The people realize the danger immediately. They ask, "What's the Noah doing flying above Fishman Island?!" and shout that it is heading straight for the plaza. Worse, the Noah is trying to force its way through the bubble around the island. If that bubble breaks before the ship even hits the island, the entire residential area will be annihilated by water pressure. Luffy, Shirahoshi, and the others look up in shock as the ancient ark presses down from above.
