## One Piece Chapter 202, pages 0-2: The Royal Crypt - Chapter: 202 - Pages: 0-2 - Characters: Hatchan, Crocodile, Monkey D. Luffy ### Summary Page 0: The title page displays "Chapter 202 'The Royal Crypt'". The illustration shows Hatchan, the octopus fish-man, falling spread-eagle from the sky towards the ocean surface. His six arms and two legs are outstretched as he plummets downward. A small fish pokes its head out of the water below, watching him fall. Text at the bottom reads: "HACHI'S OCEAN FLOOR STROLL VOL. 17 'IN SEARCH OF THE LEGENDARY TAKOYAKI RECIPE'". Page 1: Crocodile stands triumphantly over the desiccated, mummified body of Monkey D. Luffy. Crocodile holds Luffy by the collar, saying, "WHAT A PERFECT WAY FOR YOU TO DIE..." The scene shifts to the large clock tower in the city square, ticking ominously. Text boxes narrate: "This courtyard and the entire palace square will be engulfed by an explosion..." "And in just 6 minutes," Crocodile looks down from the high palace wall, a cruel smile on his face. "Celebrate the coming of the new king of this sandy country..." He releases his grip, letting Luffy's lifeless-looking body plummet over the edge. "And celebrate..." "Rest easy down here," Crocodile says as Luffy falls towards the ground far below. Page 2: Luffy's shriveled body tumbles down the side of the massive palace wall. Crocodile watches for a moment, saying, "Sorry, But I'm in a hurry..." He turns his back on the falling boy, his large coat billowing. "The royal crypt was West from here if I recall..." "...Now then, I should get going too." Crocodile grins, confident in his victory. Suddenly, a massive geyser of water shoots straight up from below, narrowly missing Crocodile as he leaps back with a shout of "DODGE!" The water splashes harmlessly onto the palace balcony, leaving Crocodile startled by the unexpected eruption.
