## One Piece Chapter 639, pages 3-4: I'll Protect Everything - Chapter: 639 - Pages: 3-4 - Characters: Hody Jones, Vander Decken IX, Noah, Straw Hat Pirates, Shirahoshi ### Summary Page 3: Hody explains exactly what he wants from Decken's death. Once the target ability disappears, "This ship will once more plummet down towards the island... destroying everything on it!!" To Hody, even thousands of his own allies are disposable if the Straw Hats die with them. He says, "The most important thing right now... is to ensure the destruction of that troublesome Straw Hat crew!! Thousands of my allies will perish alongside them... but slaves can always be easily replaced!!!" Decken realizes the scale of it and asks, "You mean to kill them all?" Hody answers that he likes the sound of that, but Decken's death comes first. Page 4: Decken panics, crying, "You can't be serious... No!!!" Hody closes in and unleashes the fishman-style strike "Gyoku Rukuruku" against him. The blow sends Decken helplessly away, his scream swallowed by the violence of the impact. Hody is not merely removing a partner; he is deliberately releasing Noah from the power that had kept it aimed at Shirahoshi.
