## One Piece Chapter 638, pages 11-12: Runawayhoshi - Chapter: 638 - Pages: 11-12 - Characters: Vander Decken IX, Shirahoshi, Noah, Manboshi, Ryuboshi, Hoe, Neptune ### Summary Page 11: Vander Decken revels in Shirahoshi's helpless position. He asks how she likes her freedom now that the walls of Shell Tower that protected her for ten long years cannot help her. Then he turns the threat into a marriage proposal again: "So which will it be?!! Will you die from blood loss as the life spurts forth from your wounds?! Or will this mighty ship crush you first?!" He offers one last chance to escape death if she says yes and marries him. Shirahoshi apologizes but begins her answer: "You're just not my -!!!" before the others interrupt. Page 12: Shirahoshi's brothers arrive between Decken and their sister. They shout, "Shirahoshi is our beloved sister!! You are not laying a single finger on her, Decken!!!" and warn him that if he thinks they will let him marry her, he has another thing coming. Shirahoshi calls for Manboshi, Ryuboshi, and Hoe. Decken is furious that they interrupt just as Shirahoshi was about to give him her answer. Shirahoshi insists she is not angry, but explains that everyone below was trying to save her, and according to their father Noah absolutely must not be harmed. Therefore they must ensure it returns to the ocean floor without hitting anything.
