## One Piece Chapter 1, pages 5-6: Romance Dawn - Chapter: 1 - Pages: 5-6 - Characters: Gol D. Roger, executioners, crowd, Nami, Shanks, Lucky Roux, Yasopp, Red Hair Pirates ### Summary Page 5: The first story page of Chapter 1, titled "CHAPTER 1: ROMANCE DAWN". The page opens with a narration box: "GOLD ROGER, THE 'KING OF THE PIRATES,' HAD ACHIEVED IT ALL." The top panel shows Gold Roger sitting on a wooden execution platform. His hands are bound in front of him, and his long dark hair and prominent curved mustache obscure his eyes. Two executioners stand on either side of him, crossing their long polearms in front of his chest. Another narration box reads: "NOT SURPRISINGLY, THE FINAL WORDS HE SPOKE BEFORE THEY LOPPED OFF HIS HEAD INSPIRED ADVENTURERS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD TO SAIL THE SEAS." The middle panel is a close-up of Gold Roger's face. He is smiling broadly, showing his teeth, with a "SMIRK" sound effect beside him. He speaks: "MY TREASURE? WHY, IT'S RIGHT WHERE I LEFT IT... IT'S YOURS IF YOU CAN FIND IT... BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO SEARCH THE WHOLE WORLD!" The bottom panel shows a massive, dense crowd of people viewed from behind, raising their arms and cheering wildly in front of the execution platform. A massive "RRROAR!!" sound effect fills the background above them. In the foreground, a raised fist wearing a wristband with a skull and crossbones is visible. Narration boxes frame the scene: "THE WORLD......IS ABOUT TO WITNESS A GREAT ERA OF PIRACY!" Page 6: One half of a double-page title spread for Chapter 1, with the title text "ROMANCE DAWN" and "THE DAWN OF ADVENTURE" across the bottom. The illustration shows a group of pirates celebrating in front of a large Jolly Roger flag while treasure, coins, jewels, swords, and barrels fill the background. Nami stands at the left with her arms raised joyfully, wearing a striped crop top and a skirt. Shanks sits near the center, smiling broadly, with a striped sash across his lap. Lucky Roux, Yasopp, and other Red Hair Pirates cheer and drink around them.
