## One Piece Chapter 357, pages 3-5: Cutty Flam - Chapter: 357 - Pages: 3-5 - Characters: Tom, Franky, Iceburg, Kokoro, Yokozuna, Spandam, Jorge ### Summary Page 3: Franky, Iceburg, Kokoro, and Yokozuna watch Tom fight back. Franky screams, "TOM-SAN!!!" Iceburg shouts, "STOP IT, TOM-SAN!!! IF YOU REALLY GET INTO THIS --" Yokozuna cries, "GERO!!" and Kokoro can only ask, "WHAT IS..." Tom's answer cuts through the panic: "DO YOU UNDERSTAND HIS PAIN!!?" He is talking about Franky, the boy whose creations have been twisted into proof of a crime. Tom grabs and throws another man, yelling, "YOU!!!" and the guards respond with force. A command rings out: "FIRE--!!!" Rifles and cannons blast toward him. The page holds the contradiction of the scene: Tom is being treated as the attacker, but his rage comes from watching the World Government crush the child he raised as an apprentice. Page 4: The armed response escalates. Bullets and cannon fire hammer Tom's body while Franky screams, "TOM-SAN---!!!" The authorities fire a "TRANQUIL-IZER PELETE---!!!" and Tom is finally brought down under the eyes of the whole plaza. The sound of impact and smoke fills the square, and the people around him stare at what has been done. Franky rushes to him and asks, "TOM-SAN!!! WHAT IS THIS--" Spandam, delighted by the spectacle, laughs, "WAHAHAHAHA!!" and mocks him: "HA---!! LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE, YOU STUPID MERMAN!!" Tom, Franky, and the townspeople are all forced to watch the trap complete itself. The government has not simply caught Tom; it has made his resistance look like further proof of guilt. Page 5: Spandam seizes control of the public narrative. He orders, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, MEN?! CAPTURE HIM, QUICKLY!!!" and then, "TAKE ALL OF THESE FELONIOUS WORKERS OF TOM TO ENIES LOBBY!!!" The crowd turns on Tom almost immediately. "...THAT TOM IS SUCH A DANGEROUS GUY!" one person says. Another asks, "WHAT THE HELL WAS HE THINKING?!" Others decide his past must have been a lie: "JUST AS I THOUGHT, HE SOLD HIS SOUL TO THE PIRATES!!" and "BUILDING THOSE SHIPS!! HE WAS JUST WAITING FOR THIS CHANCE!!" Franky cannot endure it and shouts back, "YOU ASSHOLES...!! YOU SAY THAT AGAIN TO TOM-SAN'S FACE...!!" But Tom stops him gently: "KNOCK IT OFF... IT'S ALRIGHT, FRANKY..." Then he turns to the judge: "YOUR HONOR ..." The judge answers, "HM?"
