Below, an illustration shows Jango dancing energetically on the bow of a small wooden boat. He is leaning far back, holding his signature hat with one hand and extending his other arm outward, his cape billowing behind him. The boat is sailing through choppy waters near a rocky coastline where a few small figures can be seen watching him. At the bottom of the page, a caption reads "JANGO'S DANCE PARADISE VOL. 5 'THE GETAWAY-DANCE'". Page 1: Snow falls heavily over the ocean as the Going Merry sails through the wintery waters. The wind howls around them. Usopp asks Zoro, "THE HECK ARE YOU ASKING, ZORO?" Zoro, looking out at the sea with a serious expression, replies, "CAN A PERSON STAND ON TOP OF AN OCEAN?" Usopp looks through his binoculars to see what Zoro is talking about and is stunned by what he sees. Sweating, he lowers the binoculars and asks, "THEN... HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT?" Luffy and Usopp both stare ahead with confused, blank expressions, uttering "WHAT?" and "HUH?" as they try to process the impossible sight before them. Page 2: Standing perfectly still on the surface of the freezing ocean is a strange man. He wears a thick winter coat with a dark vest, a bow slung over his shoulder, and a quiver of arrows. His face is highly unusual, featuring a distinct checkered pattern on the right side and a solid color on the left. Snow falls around him as he stands casually on the water, small splashes rippling at his feet with a "SPLASH" sound effect. Back on the Going Merry, Luffy and Usopp vigorously rub their eyes with a "rub rub" sound effect, completely in disbelief. Large exclamation and question marks appear between them as they wonder if they are hallucinating the man standing on the sea. Page 3: The Going Merry sails closer to the man standing on the water, the snow continuing to fall heavily around them. The man remains motionless as the ship approaches. A series of vertical panels shows the faces of the man, Usopp, Luffy, and Zoro, all staring in silence at the bizarre situation. Suddenly, the man speaks up in a casual tone, "QUITE COLD TODAY, ISN'T IT?" Luffy and Usopp jolt in surprise, completely caught off guard by the mundane greeting from a man standing on the ocean surface. Page 4: Usopp, sweating nervously and still trying to process the situation, replies to the man, "Y-YEAH, FOR REAL. IT'S FREEZING TODAY..." Luffy agrees, adding, "...YEAH IT IS PRETTY COLD TODAY." The man simply responds, "IS THAT SO?" Suddenly, exclamation marks appear over the heads of the man, Usopp, Luffy, and Zoro as they all sense something amiss beneath them. The Going Merry is shown continuing to sail through the snowy sea, but a low rumbling sound begins to emanate from the water. Page 5: From beneath the ocean's surface, a massive, dome-like structure begins to emerge right under the Going Merry. Inside the structure, a gruff voice commands, "INCREASING BUOYANCY!" and "RAISE THE SHIP!" The enormous vessel breaches the surface with a tremendous splash, lifting the Going Merry high into the air on its curved, metallic back. The sudden upheaval sends the Merry tilting violently, and Luffy screams "AHHHHHHH!" as he loses his balance and the ship is hoisted out of the water. Page 6: The Going Merry shakes violently as it is lifted out of the water. Luffy tumbles across the deck, yelling, "AGHH! WHAT'S THAT!? A WATERMELON!?" Inside the ship's cabin, Sanji struggles to stay upright while Vivi tends to a bedridden, sweating Nami. Sanji yells out to the crew on deck, "WHAT'S ALL THIS SHAKING!? HEY, HANG TIGHT TO THE HELM UP THERE! IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO NAMI, I'LL HAVE YOUR HEADS FOR IT!" Outside, Zoro grabs onto the railing to steady himself, looking down at the massive structure beneath them. "IS THIS THING... A SHIP...!?!" he wonders, as the Merry continues to tilt precariously. Page 7: The massive submarine fully surfaces, revealing itself to be a colossal, round pirate ship with large paddle wheels on its sides and a crown-shaped structure on top. The Going Merry is perched precariously on its massive deck, looking tiny in comparison. A booming voice laughs, "MAHA HAHAH AHA! SURPRISED!? HAS MY SUBMERSIBLE AMBUSH-SHIP 'TIN CAN KING' LEFT YOU SPEECHLESS!?" A large pirate flag unfurls in the foreground, displaying a skull wearing a crown and crossbones, signaling the arrival of a dangerous enemy. Page 8: Zoro looks annoyed, muttering, "WHY NOW OF ALL TIMES..." Luffy, clinging to the ship, exclaims, "A PIRATE SHIP!?" Usopp panics, yelling, "OH CRAP!" Inside the cabin, Sanji heads for the door, telling Vivi, "VIVI, I'LL LEAVE HER WITH YOU FOR NOW!" He bursts out onto the deck, demanding, "WHAT'S GOING ON OUT THERE!?" L...
