Luffy, Chimney, Gonbe, Kokoro, Rob Lucci ### Summary Page 0: Chapter 403 title page, "Mr. Kishido." The cover story continues: The name of Miss Goldenweek's strategy, "Meet Baroque," Vol. 34, "Refusing to escape, 'I don't feel like it.'" In the Baroque Works side story, the prison escape reaches someone who simply sits and smokes instead of leaving, making the refusal itself the joke and the new obstacle. Page 1: In Kalifa's room, the battle is Sanji vs. Kalifa. Kalifa keeps her composure and needles him with Robin's fate: "If you're wondering about Nico Robin," she says, "She's getting closer and closer to the Gates of Justice. Or should I say she's approaching 'hell'?" Sanji snaps back, "I'm perfectly aware of that!!! Right, Robin-chan's life is at stake!!!" His anger fills the ruined room as he warns her, "If you try to get in my way, I won't take into consideration that you're a woman!! Now, give me the key that you have, before you get hurt!!!" Kalifa only laughs softly. "... Hoo, hoo... Even with your yelling, the key won't appear that easily." Page 2: Kalifa steps into the fight without accepting any mercy. "You don't have to think of me as a woman..." she tells Sanji. "I don't live in such a lenient world. As long as I have the extermination order, I'll just take your life." Sanji answers that his life is not what she is getting: "I won't give you my life. What I want is the key to Robin-chan's handcuffs." Kalifa decides the polite pause is over. "Well then, shall we bring tea time to a close?" In the next instant she disappears with "Soru," closing the distance with CP9 speed before Sanji can force the conversation any further. Page 3: Kalifa's kicks come in sharp, clean lines, and Sanji is forced to guard instead of countering. He recognizes the truth of her power: "Indeed, she has super-human power." Their legs clash again and again in the air, Kalifa pressing him with the precision of the Six Powers. Even when Sanji keeps up with her speed, he still does not strike her. Kalifa lands a hit and calmly counts it: "One blow for me." Sanji reels with "Hawe...!!" as the blow crashes through him with a heavy "Hon-gah!!!" The page turns the fight into a one-sided test of Sanji's restraint, not his strength. Page 4: Kalifa makes her advantage plain. "Something like that would be 'one blow,' wouldn't it?" she says as Sanji is knocked backward. He hits hard enough to cry, "Owwie!" and "Orrrghh!!!" but still refuses to answer with a kick of his own. Kalifa rises with "Geppou," stepping through the air above him, and Sanji can only shout, "NGGG!!! You fiend~~!!!" The impact comes down with a brutal "Thump!!" It is not that Sanji cannot move; it is that the one move that would save him is the one thing he will not do. Page 5: Kalifa pins the fight beneath her heel. "I just crushed you with my leg...!!!" she says before shifting into "Shigan." Her finger pistol shoots toward Sanji as she declares, "You lost. Now gimme the..." But Sanji vanishes from under her hand fast enough to startle her: "He's so fast...!!" Kalifa answers with "Rankyaku," sending cutting arcs through the room. Sanji twists and survives, grunting "Ugh!!!" and "Whoa!!!" as the slashes tear past him. His speed proves he has not been beaten physically, but every dodge makes the same problem clearer: he can escape, block, and endure, yet he still will not attack her. Page 6: Kalifa sees through him. "You're a pirate... yet a terrible coward," she says, because his threats have no force behind them if he will not hit a woman. Sanji flares up, "Hey, shut up!!! Just give me the key!!!" Kalifa is finished playing along: "I've had enough of your empty threats. If you don't counter-attack... you won't survive it." Sanji still tries to talk his way to Robin's key instead of breaking his rule. Kalifa closes in and says, "Let's do something fun..." The danger becomes personal: she is not merely guarding the key, she is exposing the contradiction at the center of Sanji's chivalry. Page 7: On the first floor VIP room, Nami faces Kumadori. She realizes with relief, "He's not coming after me..." and thinks, "Good thing... if he were to catch me again, I bet my life would end right there...!!" Her plan is simple: "I'll just run..." But Kumadori's hair surges after her with "Woosh woosh." He uses "Seimei Kikan," noted as "Life Feedback," and the hair moves like living tentacles. Nami barely has time to cry, "Eh!?" before it wraps her up. She screams "WAH!!!" and "Kugh...!!!" while Kumadori sings out, "Ayoi yoi yoi yoyoyoi!!!" Page 8: Kumadori resumes his theatrical execution as Nami struggles in his hair. "Noooow, as we were~~!! Shall I stab you to death~~~? Or shall I strangle you~~?" Nami chokes out, "Shi---!!! I'm choking... Ugh...!!" Kumadori recites as if death were a s...
