## One Piece Chapter 155, pages 12-13: The Pirate Sir Crocodile - Chapter: 155 - Pages: 12-13 - Characters: Nami, Vivi, Sanji, Luffy, Usopp, Chopper ### Summary Page 12: Nami turns to Vivi, looking surprised. "CROCODILE IS ALABASTA'S HERO?". Vivi, sitting on the deck, confirms, "HERO?". She explains the situation: "TO BE A 'ROYAL SHICHIBUKAI,' MEANS THAT YOU'RE A PIRATE EMPLOYED BY THE WORLD GOVERNMENT ITSELF. SO WHETHER IT'S A SHICHIBUKAI WHO GETS RID OF THE RAIDING PIRATES, OR THE MARINES WHO DO IT FOR JUSTICE, THE PEOPLE ARE THANKFUL TO WHOEVER KEPT THEM SAFE. THE END RESULT IS THE SAME." The panel shows the crew relaxing on the deck; Sanji is sitting on a barrel smoking, Luffy is recovering on the floor, and Usopp and Chopper are still fishing. Vivi looks down thoughtfully as she explains the political reality of Crocodile's status in her country. Page 13: Vivi continues her explanation, her expression turning serious. "WELL I GUESS THAT'S TO BE EXPECTED... BUT TO THINK THE SO-CALLED HERO OF ALABASTA, WOULD BE SECRETLY PLANNING ON TAKING OVER THE COUNTRY... I DON'T THINK ANYBODY WOULD'VE IMAGINED THAT EVEN IN THEIR DREAMS." Luffy, having recovered from Sanji's kick, punches his palm enthusiastically and declares, "EITHER WAY, ALL I HAVE TO DO, IS KICK THAT GUY'S ASS, RIGHT!?". Vivi looks at Luffy and smiles, finding comfort in his straightforward determination. She says, "YES... IF WE CAN PUT A STOP TO THE CIVIL UNREST FIRST, AND CHASE AWAY BAROQUE WORKS, THEN ALABASTER WILL BE SAVED...".
