Teach, Portgas D. Ace ### Summary Page 9: Rebecca pulls Luffy through the arena corridors. He recognizes her, "Ah, it's you...! Uh, you're..." and she explains, "It's Rebecca. You've sure got a lot of people after you! Come this way." Luffy thanks her, "Ah, thanks a lot!" Bartolomeo, still nearby, watches him go and murmurs, "Ah, hold on captain." The scene also lets Burgess confront Luffy directly. He laughs, "Zehahaha come to think of it, the same could be said of Shillew, right?" and says they are talking about Aokiji: "No way we can trust him!!" Then he identifies Luffy plainly: "It's Strawhat!" Luffy realizes who is in front of him as Burgess says, "He's there, with you right now?" and Luffy answers with a wary "Hmm!?" Page 10: Burgess confirms what he has guessed: "So it's you, Blackbeard?!" Luffy is forced into a Den Den Mushi exchange with Marshall D. Teach, who laughs, "That's right! It's been a while... zehaha!! I heard you entered the tournament, 'Lucy'." Teach twists the knife by invoking Ace: "Can you really afford to be here right now? It's about to begin. Your brother's execution, that is... zehaha!!" Luffy goes silent, then understands the target of the tournament. "...!! Ace's power..." he says, and declares, "I'll make sure it goes to anyone except you guys!" Burgess laughs that the Mera Mera no Mi is going into his own belly and that he would be happy as if Ace had joined his crew. Rebecca asks whether Luffy knows that pirate, and Luffy answers, "You could say that... If nothing else, I won't let them win this thing...!!"
