Luffy, Chess, Kuromarimo, Sanji, Kureha, Wapol, Tony Tony Chopper ### Summary Page 9: Luffy stands confidently, grinning widely and cracking his knuckles. "But now I don't need to hold back anymore~! Shi Shi Shi Shi!" Chess and Kuromarimo yell angrily at him from across the bridge. "How dare you treat King Wapol of Drum with such disrespect and brutality!? That's right! Don't you realize you're in the presence of royalty!? This island and the lives of its inhabitants are subject to the very whims of his regal self!" Luffy casually picks his nose, completely unimpressed. "King? So what!? All I know is that you guys annoy the hell outta me." Page 10: Sanji steps forward, looking annoyed. "Well, I'm not gonna take their crap anymore! They even tried to eat my ship! Nothing but pests, the lot of'em." Kureha smirks, "Oh I know them alright. They're the 'pesty pirate posse.' You know those three, kid?" Sanji turns to Luffy, noticing his lack of winter clothing. "More importantly, aren't you cold with just that on?" Across the bridge, Chess and Kuromarimo are outraged. "Did they just say 'King!?' I thought they were pirates!" Sanji retorts, "You just realized that!?" The two subordinates yell, "THEY'RE IGNORING US!" Sanji suddenly shivers violently. "Holy cow, it's cold!" Luffy, also shivering, agrees, "Yeah, I know!" Sanji adds, "It's minus 50°C." Chess glares at them, "Fool... It seems you've only now realized the folly of your actions. But that is how it is. The man before you is none other than the rightful master of Drum Cast-" Page 11: Wapol suddenly rises from the snow, his face heavily dented from Luffy's kick. He roars in fury, "ARGGHHHHHH!". Chess and Kuromarimo yell, "YOUR MAJESTY!". Wapol glares menacingly at the castle. "Strawhat...! You've ticked me off big time... I swear I'll devour every last piece of you now... MAHAHA... MAHAHAHA." Sanji looks around, noticing Luffy is no longer beside him. "Hm? Did he... stretch just now...?" Chopper also looks around in confusion. Sanji asks, "If you don't mind me asking... HE'S NOT HERE!?" Kureha calmly replies, "Uhhh, might want to save the tough-talk. He's gone back inside to get a jacket."
