## One Piece Chapter 30, pages 5-7: GREAT!!! - Chapter: 30 - Pages: 5-7 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Jango, Black Cat Pirates, Usopp, Nami, Roronoa Zoro ### Summary Page 5: Luffy looks surprised as he notices the stirring pirates, exclaiming, "AH! THEY'RE STILL ALIVE! THEY'RE PRETTY TOUGH!" Jango, looking serious, addresses his crew: "LISTEN! WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO WASTE HERE! SINCE THE OPPONENT IS STRONG, WE MUST BE STRONGER..." Jango then holds up his ringed pendulum by a string, instructing them, "COME! LOOK AT MY PENDULUM. AFTER I SAY '1, 2, JANGO' YOU GUYS WILL BECOME STRONGER!" The battered Black Cat Pirates stare blankly at the swinging pendulum as Jango continues his hypnotic suggestion: "YOUR WOUNDS WILL HEAL! AND YOU WILL BECOME MUCH STRONGER THAN BEFORE!!" Watching this bizarre display, Luffy asks, "WHAT'S THAT GUY DOING?" Usopp, standing next to him, replies, "I DUNNO..." Nami realizes what is happening and says, "IT MUST BE HYPNOTISM! HE'S TRYING TO MAKE THEM THINK THEY'RE STRONGER!" Usopp, sweating, adds, "THIS IS ABSURD!" Page 6: Jango begins his countdown while the battered Black Cat Pirates stare at the swinging pendulum. "ONE..." he says, as the pirates stagger weakly. "TWO..." he continues. Then, Jango suddenly pulls the brim of his hat down over his eyes with a "TAP" and shouts, "JANGO!!!" Nami, Usopp, Luffy, and Zoro watch in silence, with Nami uttering a confused "EHH..." Suddenly, the Black Cat Pirates erupt with explosive energy. They roar "UWOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!!!" at the top of their lungs. Their bodies bulge with newfound muscle, veins popping on their faces and arms as they brandish their swords, completely transformed from their previously weakened state into a frenzy of aggressive power. Page 7: Nami looks on in sheer disbelief, exclaiming, "NO WAY!? THEY WERE STILL SHAKY JUST A WHILE AGO!" One of the hypnotized Black Cat Pirates, bulging with unnatural muscle, yells "HEAH!" and throws a powerful punch directly into the solid rock face of the nearby cliff. Usopp watches, uttering a stunned "UH..." as a loud "CRACK!!" echoes. The impact of the pirate's punch causes a massive explosion of rock and debris, completely shattering a large section of the cliff wall. The pirates continue to roar "UOOOOO-OOOOOH!" in their frenzied state. Usopp is left wide-eyed and terrified, sweating profusely as he stammers, "HE CRUSHED THE WALL... HOW DID THEY GAIN SO MUCH STRENGTH!?"
