## One Piece Chapter 684, pages 3-5: Stop It, Vegapunk - Chapter: 684 - Pages: 3-5 - Characters: Smoker, Vergo, G-5 Marines ### Summary Page 3: Vergo arms himself for the duel, drawing a massive projectile-like weapon and stating the reason no witness can leave: "AT ANY RATE, I'VE NO CHOICE BUT TO ELIMINATE ALL OF YOU WHO KNOW MY TRUE IDENTITY." The two men clash amid the pipes and tanks. Vergo's attack tears through the room with a huge explosion, while Smoker twists into smoke and counters, the impacts ringing out with "CLANG," "BOOOM," and "FWIP!!" The fight is not casual punishment anymore; Vergo is openly trying to erase everyone who can expose him. Smoker, meanwhile, uses his smoke body to move through the production room, turning his anger over G-5 into direct combat. Page 4: The fight accelerates across the S.A.D. production room. Vergo strikes through Smoker's smoke, and Smoker sweeps around him, attacking from different angles with his jitte and body transformed. Vergo remains composed, his sunglasses and expression almost unchanged as Smoker comes at him again and again. Smoker presses with smoke-assisted movement, then hammers into Vergo from the side and behind. The page is mostly motion and impact rather than dialogue: Vergo's hardened body, Smoker's smoke trails, and the repeated collisions make the room feel like it is being carved apart by two high-level Marines fighting without restraint. Page 5: Smoker drives a blackened Haki-coated fist toward Vergo, and the two exchange more heavy blows. Vergo's counter lands hard, sending Smoker flying back, but Smoker keeps returning through the smoke. Vergo then explains the cruelty behind his betrayal: "NO MATTER HOW LONG YOU'VE BEEN WITH THEM OR HOW MUCH THEY ACKNOWLEDGE YOU AS 'BASE COMMANDER,' WHEN YOU LEAVE THE BASE, THE LIVES OF THE MEN ARE IN THE HANDS OF THEIR COMMANDING OFFICER." The line exposes his worldview. To Vergo, loyalty is not mutual responsibility; it is a command chain he can exploit. Smoker answers through the fight itself, refusing to let Vergo define what command over G-5 means.
