## One Piece Chapter 1036, pages 1-3: Bushido is the Way of Death - Chapter: 1036 - Pages: 1-3 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Brook, Nico Robin, Franky, Jinbe, Tony Tony Chopper, Roronoa Zoro, King, Kaido, Kuina, Dracule Mihawk ### Summary Page 1: A color spread shows the Straw Hat crew in a snowy town setting, with the One Piece logo and vertical Japanese promotional text about the Onigashima battle and volume 101. Luffy swings forward from a large pink structure, while Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Brook, Robin, Franky, Jinbe, Chopper, and Zoro appear in winter outfits around the town. This is official color art and release promotion rather than direct chapter narrative, so it is kept as useful extra material. Page 2: King falls after Zoro's final slash, with the narration saying that Zoro has clipped King's wings. The chapter title appears: "Chapter 1036: Bushido is the Way of Death," with a note that it references Hagakure, a guide to being a warrior. Zoro and King both huff from the decisive clash. As King falls, he remembers Kaido and asks, "Kaido-san... you still believe that, King?!" The page ties King's defeat directly to the promise he made with Kaido and to Zoro's own resolve. The battle is no longer only about strength; it is about whether King still believes in Kaido's dream even as he is cut down. Page 3: In King's memory, Kaido asks whether King thinks he is Joyboy and whether the world he is making is really the world King wanted. King answers that legends are legends and that it no longer matters what Kaido does, because King owes him his life. He tells Kaido to just keep being the strongest, and promises that he will make sure never to lose until Kaido is King of the Pirates. In parallel, Zoro remembers his promise to Luffy and Kuina: he will never lose again until he beats Mihawk and becomes the greatest swordsman. Luffy jokes that being the future King of the Pirates means he has a problem with that. The page mirrors King and Zoro as warriors bound to their captains by vows.
