Garp, Gonbe, Yokozuna, Sodom, Gomorrah, Galley-La Company ### Summary Page 0: Chapter 437 opens with the title page, "HADAKA HYAKKAN," with a note explaining it as an idiomatic phrase meaning that even if a person has no money, he himself is a great asset. Enel's Great Space Mission continues with Vol. 8, "FORMER BATTLEFIELD." On the moon, Enel stands over fallen little soldiers and the ruined lunar ground, carrying his staff beneath the dark sky. It is cover-story material and not part of the Water Seven departure. Page 1: At Shipwreck Island, Water Seven's citizens shout at Franky from above: "PUT YOUR PANTS ON!" "PERVERT!!" "YOU WRECKED THE TOWN AGAIN!" and "GET LOST, PERVERT!!" Franky only wants the one thing Luffy is holding. "GIVE ME BACK MY PANTS, STRAWHAT!!" he yells. Luffy repeats the invitation instead: "THEN BE OUR NAKAMA!!!" Franky insists that Luffy is being silly and says, "DON'T ASSUME YOU CAN MAKE ME YOUR NAKAMA JUST BY TAKING MY PANTS!!" Around them, Iceburg, Kokoro, Chimney, and the Franky Family watch, while the new ship waits beside the ruined dock like the answer Franky refuses to say aloud. Page 2: Franky makes a desperate display of manliness. Standing naked against the waves, he strikes a heroic pose beneath the words, "Stand like a lion, brave against the waves, even if behind the mask you have nothing." His coat flaps in the wind, and the crowd screams that he has made his usual pose without anything covering his lower half. Luffy is stunned: "I UNDERESTIMATED HIM...!! HE'S SO RESOLUTE." The citizens scream that Franky is horrible, yet Luffy calls him "THE MAN OF MEN!!!" and decides, "IF I'M ALLOWED TO BE A LITTLE VIOLENT, I CAN HELP YOU OUT." Robin quietly offers a more direct solution. Page 3: Robin crosses her arms and activates her Devil Fruit: "DOS FLEUR," then "GRAB." Her hands sprout at the exact worst place for Franky. Kokoro smiles, while the men around Franky tense in sudden horror. Franky's body locks up, his face twists, and he screams, "HOBU-UAAA-AAAAH!!!" and "AAAA-AARRG-GGGH-HHHH!" The attack stops his stubborn pose instantly. In one ruthless motion, Robin proves she can end the pants standoff without needing to chase him at all. Page 4: The entire crowd panics for Franky. Nami screams, "HEY, ROBIN!!!" and Chopper wails, "SHE GRABBED THEM!!!" and "THEY'LL BE SMASHED, ROBIN!!!" Robin keeps her grip as Franky screams that they will come off, "JUST LIKE MIKANS!!" The spectators can barely watch. Chopper begs, "HEY, ROBIN, I WANT HIM TO BE OUR NAKAMA AS A MAN!!! DON'T MAKE THEM COME OFF, OKAY!?" Nami says it hurts just looking at it, while others call Franky pitiful even though he is a pervert. Robin's method is terrifying, but it forces the truth to the surface. Page 5: Robin tells Franky that if pirates are asked to back off in front of a "treasure," they had better have a good explanation, otherwise there is no way they will retreat. Under the pain and pressure, Franky finally says what he has been hiding: "I... I... I SAID I WANT TO STAY ON THIS ISLAND!!" He admits he is really thankful to them, more than he can imagine, but he wants to go with them and still has things to take care of in Water Seven. He says that is why he gave them the ship: first, he quit being a shipwright already, and second, he wanted that ship to be the last one he ever made. "IT WAS MY WISH... THAT IS THE 'DREAM SHIP'!!!" Page 6: Iceburg refuses to let Franky call the ship finished. "THIS SHIP HASN'T BECOME YOUR SO-CALLED 'DREAM SHIP' YET," he says. Franky stares, shaken, and remembers what that dream really meant. A ship earns the name only after it sails off, crosses many seas, overcomes battles and hardships, and finally arrives at the end of the sea. Only then can the builder call it a "DREAM SHIP." Franky once imagined getting on such a ship as a shipwright and seeing its destined day with his own eyes. By then, the ship would be rugged and worn, but brighter than any other ship. His own memory betrays his excuse. Page 7: Kokoro laughs that Franky may exceed Tom if he becomes a sailor, while someone jokes, "I WONDER IF IT'S THE PIRATE BLOOD." Franky snaps that a dude like him can never exceed Tom-san. Kokoro, however, tells him he is still young, just doing the same stubborn thing as Tom with a don. Iceburg cuts deeper. Franky says he changed his mind about what he wants to do, but Iceburg replies that whatever Franky is doing on the island now is all just atonement. Tom was taken away that day, but Tom already forgave Franky and directed him to the new road. Franky's duty to Water Seven has become a chain he forged for himself. Page 8: Iceburg lays out everything Franky has done since then. He brought the backstreet punks together, called himself a bounty hun...
