The cover story reads, "From Shipdecks Around The World Vol. 27: Jaya - Southbird, Northbird -> Westernbird & Easternbird." Southbirds and Northbirds perch in Jaya's forest, and the cover story reveals related birds pointing west and east as well. This is world cover-story material and does not take place during the Fishman Island battle. Page 1: Fishman Island's citizens continue fleeing while Fukaboshi's broadcast spreads through the country. People ask, "What's going on up there above the island?!" and "The truth about Hody?!" Fukaboshi's words ring over the panic: the New Fishman Pirates have no experience of humanity, no reason or higher purpose behind their actions, and are driven by "blind and empty hatred alone!!!" Citizens cry, "Empty?!" but the shadow of Noah has already begun to blacken the sky. Someone shouts, "Run for it, people!! Can't you see?! The Noah is already starting to blacken the sky!!" Page 2: Above the island, Hody Jones laughs, "Jahaha hahaha...!!" as Noah falls. He has transformed again, becoming even more hideous under the power of the Energy Steroids, and his body throbs with "Dokun" as he pants. Shirahoshi sees it and says, "Hody-sama has transformed into an even more unsightly form...!!" Luffy remains with her inside the bubble while the gigantic ship keeps descending toward Fishman Island. Page 3: As Hody laughs, the voices that shaped him echo from the past: "Human beings are an inferior race," "Humans are evil," and "Don't forget this, Hody." The lesson is repeated through the Fishman District: since the Great Pirate Age began, more people die on this island every day, humans have gone wild, and they think nothing of kidnapping young mermaids. The conclusion forced into the children is absolute: "There's nothing left to do!! Fishman Island is surely doomed!!!" Page 4: The old stories turn hatred into worship. The children are told that Fisher Tiger blew up a human shop on the surface, wounded humans everywhere, and even died himself while taking eight humans with him. They toast Arlong for sinking a human pirate ship and call him a hero. The voices say, "Praise the hero who killed the humans!! His sacrifice won't be forgotten!!" and "This is a holy war!!!" Long ago, those humans looked upon fishmen, blessed by the heavens with superior strength, and were filled with envy and fear. Hody absorbs all of it as doctrine. Page 5: The propaganda continues: humans chose to persecute fishmen, ruled the world above like vermin, used numbers as their only advantage, and exiled fishmen to the ocean floor. Someone curses humanity with all his heart. Hachi tells the young fishmen, "There's a human man I've known for a long time. His name's Rayleigh. He's not like most humans - he looks at me without the slightest scorn in his..." Hody cuts him off: "I don't like listening to your stories, Hachi-san!! They make me feel sick." Later, the children are told not to forget those who came before them, to carry on their will, and to avenge them. Hody imagines humans as terrified because judgment will come. Page 6: News of Fisher Tiger's death reaches the Fishman District: "It's terrible!!! The hero who freed the slaves, Tiger-san... has been killed by the humans!!!" Someone says, "So even Tiger was not the true chosen hero..." The young Hody watches the hatred deepen. In another memory, a fishman threatens a child and says, "I hear you shared your blood with a human." The child cries, "Who are you people?! Go away and leave me alone!!" Hody answers without pity, "So what if I did?! He was about to die if I didn't-" and the man calls him contaminated by contact with a human. Page 7: The hatred grows around every political choice. Some say the royals are sick in the head because they want to forgive what humans have done, while others say Jinbe has joined the Shichibukai. They declare, "The Arlong Pirates are the only ones who still retain any sense of pride in their race...!!" Then Queen Otohime is murdered, and Hody twists even that tragedy into proof against humans: "You see?! This is what the humans are like!!!" He says the royals show no mercy to the queen, yet she was kinder toward them than anyone, and if the royals still refuse revenge, he has lost all respect for those in charge of the country. Page 8: Hody celebrates Otohime's death as heavenly punishment, saying, "Jahahaha hahahah!!! The woman who brought shame upon our nation... has been punished by the heavens!!!" Dosun calls it only right for human-loving fools like her to die. Hody then...
