The title page for Chapter 184, titled "Molehill 4th Street". The cover illustration shows Hachi the octopus fish-man enjoying an underwater stroll. He is sitting on the back of a large, multi-legged starfish-like creature, smoking a cigarette. Beside him swims a large "panda shark"—a shark with the black-and-white markings and round ears of a panda. The caption at the bottom reads, "HACHI'S UNDERWATER STROLL VOL. 3 'HACHI RESCUES A PANDA SHARK'".

The scene opens at the South-eastern gates of the desert ruins. Text boxes announce the matchup: "Usopp & Chopper v.s. Mr. 4 & Ms. Merry Christmas". A massive explosion erupts in the distance among the ruins, sending a huge plume of black smoke into the sky. In the aftermath, a close-up shows Chopper's hooves and Usopp's hand resting on the sandy ground. Chopper asks, "Are you alright, Usopp!?" The two are lying flat on their stomachs, panting heavily. Usopp, sweating and trembling, asks, "What the hell was that though!?" Chopper replies between breaths, "Whew, that was close. huff... huff..." Usopp angrily yells, "I told you already! Mr. 4's a clean up hitter who fights with his dog!" Chopper yells back just as loudly, "YES, AND I TOLD YOU I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!"

Usopp and Chopper look up, startled. Usopp says, "HM!?" while Chopper panics, "AHH! IT'S HIM AGAIN!" In the distance, the large, round figure of Mr. 4 stands with his bat. Usopp looks confused, asking, "A dog?" A close-up shows the face of a dog with a runny nose, a drop of snot hanging from it with a "DROOP..." sound effect. The full creature is then revealed: it's a bizarre, metallic dog-like entity that resembles a cannon or gun with dog features, panting heavily with an "AH... PANT". Usopp screams in shock, "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?" An introductory text box labels the creature: "Mr. 4's Beloved Gun Gun-Dog Lassoo (Has a cold)".

The gun-dog Lassoo suddenly sneezes violently, "ACHOO!", and fires a baseball out of its mouth with a loud "BOM!" sound. The baseball rockets towards Usopp and Chopper. Usopp panics, yelling, "AGAIN!?" while Chopper screams, "WHAAT!? HERE HE COMES!" In the distance, Mr. 4 winds up his baseball bat. The flying baseball emits a ticking sound, "tic toc tic...". With a powerful swing, Mr. 4 strikes the ticking baseball, producing a sharp "CRACK" sound as he hits it right back towards them.

Mr. 4 follows through on his massive swing, sending the baseball flying at high speed. The ball lands near Usopp and Chopper, and a colossal explosion detonates, sending a towering pillar of smoke and debris into the air. Chopper yells out a warning, "NO, USOPP! YOU CAN'T JUST DODGE IT! YOU'VE GOTTA RUN FAR AWAY!" The baseball is shown rolling on the ground, still ticking "tic toc...". Usopp is seen cowering on the ground, covering his head as the explosion goes off nearby.

Chopper, now transformed into his large, muscular Heavy Point form, carries Usopp away from the blast. Chopper explains the danger: "The balls are ticking time-bombs! They'll still explode even if they don't hit you! He even takes into account the time limit for the bombs as he hits them!" Usopp coughs from the dust. Chopper continues his analysis, "On the other hand, that also means they won't explode until the internal clock reaches zero. I tried exploiting that fact by throwing the bombs back, But they're heavy as cannonballs! It's not something you can just catch and throw back! And yet if Mr. 4 can hit back these cannonballs at those speeds... Then he's monstrously strong!" Meanwhile, Mr. 4 stands impassively. He rests his heavy bat on the ground, the sheer weight of it cracking the stone beneath it. He taps the bat lazily.

Usopp stares in disbelief, sweating profusely. "HOLY MOLY, JUST HOW HEAVY IS THAT BAT...!?" he wonders, adding, "IS HE REALLY HUMAN!?" He tries to call out, "HEY, MR. 4! MR. 4!" Suddenly, Ms. Merry Christmas begins screaming at her partner. "YOU DUMB SLOWPOKE! DUMBPOKE! What're you slackin' around for!? HURRYTHEHELL UPANDFINISH THEMOFF! KILL'EMNOW! KILL'EMQUICK!" Mr. 4 slowly responds with a confused "Hmm...?" and a drawn-out "Diiiid...". Ms. Merry Christmas continues her rapid-fire rant, "Yooouuu.... YOU DUMPOKE! YOU DOKE! Caaaaaall Mmmeee...?" Mr. 4 just stands there, holding his massive bat, completely unfazed by her yelling.

Ms. Merry Christmas continues her tirade, yelling, "YOU NINCOMPOOPS! NINPOOPS!" Usopp and Chopper react in terror. Chopper screams, "AGHH! IT'S THE HUMAN-MOLE! SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE A REAL MOLE!" Usopp yells back, "I HAVEN'T EVEN TRANSFORMED YET!" Chopper then tries to bail out, saying, "CHOPPER, I'LL LEAVE THE REST TO YOU... LET MY CORPSE REST IN THE SEAS..." Usopp furiously grabs him, "WHAT HAPPENED TO BACKING ME UP!?" Chopper defends himself, "THAT WAS BEFORE I REALIZED I HAD TO FIGHT THAT BIZARRE DOG-LIKE LIFEFORM FROM PLANET X AND ITS FREAKISHLY STRONG MONSTER-OWNER!" Usopp argues, "I'M ONLY HUMAN! YOU CAN'T EXPECT ME TO FIGHT NON-HUMANS!" Chopper retorts, "HEY, I'M JUST A HUMAN TOO!" Usopp snaps back, "NO, YOU'RE A MONSTER TOO! WELL YOUR NOSE IS TOO DAMN LONG TO BE HUMAN THEN!" Meanwhile, Ms. Merry Christmas pets the gun-dog. She explains, "Its name is Lassoo. He's a gun, That ate the Inu Inu Fruit, Model: Dachshund".

Chopper is shocked by the revelation, exclaiming, "A GUN!?" Usopp, looking knowledgeable, explains, "It's the latest technology in Grand Line! You can make objects eat devil fruits now!" He then questions the logic, "That's ridiculous! How could a gun ever move around on its own? It's not as if the devil fruit has a will of its own!" Ms. Merry Christmas angrily interrupts him, "Shutyourpiehole! What'sittoya anyways!? Yergonnabe deadsoon! This gun here moves and that's that!" She turns to her partner, "RIGHT, MR.4!?" Mr. 4 slowly replies, "Yyyeeeeessss...." Ms. Merry Christmas declares confidently, "In any case, you two ain't getting outta here alive. This is our territory you've step foot in!" Lassoo pants happily beside them.

Ms. Merry Christmas begins to transform, her body expanding. She threatens, "Have fun if you can... AT OUR MOLEHILL 4TH STREET!" Usopp watches in horror, stammering, "S-she's transforming into a...!" Ms. Merry Christmas fully transforms into her human-mole hybrid form, growing massive claws on her hands and feet. She proudly declares, "I'M A MOLE FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD!" Usopp, confused by her appearance, asks, "A penguin?" Chopper just screams, "GOD!" in terror.

Ms. Merry Christmas quickly burrows underground, disappearing from sight. Usopp notes, "They went back underground..." Seeing an opportunity, Usopp turns and starts running away across the desert ruins, saying, "Good. Now's my chance!" Chopper yells after him, "WAAAIT!" Suddenly, Lassoo the gun-dog sneezes again, firing another baseball bomb. Chopper spots it and screams, "WATCH OUT!" The bomb flies towards the fleeing Usopp.

Usopp runs frantically, looking back over his shoulder at the incoming baseball bomb. He notices its strange trajectory and yells, "IT CHANGED DIRECTIONS! A CURVE BALL!?" The ball curves sharply, flying right past Usopp's head. Usopp flinches, crying out, "AGH!" He stops and looks relieved, thinking he dodged it. However, Chopper points upwards and yells, "NO, LOOK ABOVE, USOPP! IT'S A FLY BALL!" Usopp looks up, confused, saying, "HUH!?"

The baseball bomb is shown flying high up into the sky, ticking ominously "tic toc tic...". Usopp laughs confidently, "Haha! I guess even a great cleanup hitter, Can't bat 1.00 all the time!" Suddenly, the ball drops straight down towards him, spinning rapidly. Usopp realizes, "A spin ball!?" He easily steps aside as the ball hits the ground, boasting, "I can dodge this blindfolded!" The ball lands behind him, still ticking. Chopper screams in panic, "BEHIND YOU, USOPP!"

Just as the bomb explodes, Chopper, in his Heavy Point form, grabs Usopp and dives out of the way of the massive blast. From a hole in the ground, Ms. Merry Christmas peeks out and observes, "Oh, a zoan-fruit user? I suspected he wasn't a normal human...!" Mr. 4 is seen standing nearby. Lassoo fires two more baseball bombs in rapid succession. Chopper continues running, carrying Usopp, and yells, "Aghh! Here comes the next pitch! Usopp! Consider yourself done for if you stop dead in your tracks!" The bombs explode behind them as they flee.

Chopper sprints desperately, dodging explosions. He thinks to himself, "Right! Gotta keep my legs moving or I'll be hit over and over again! IF I CAN JUST TAKE YOU OUT...!" He charges directly towards Mr. 4, preparing to attack. Mr. 4 looks slightly surprised, "WHA!?" Suddenly, Ms. Merry Christmas bursts out of the ground right in front of Chopper, blocking his path. She taunts, "Hold your horses! The game's no fun without a batter!" Chopper is forced to skid to a halt to avoid her claws.

Usopp screams Chopper's name, "CHOPPER!" Chopper yells in alarm, "AGHHH!" as Ms. Merry Christmas swipes at him with her massive mole claws. Just in time, Chopper uses his powers to shrink down into his small, cute Brain Point form, easily dodging the attack. He sighs in relief, "Whew, I almost forgot I could do this." Ms. Merry Christmas is furious and swings again, yelling, "YOU UGLY MOLE! Try again! TAKE THIS!" Chopper swiftly dashes away from her strikes.

Chopper, still in his small form, assesses the situation. "DAMMIT! IF THEY KEEP RUNNING CIRCLES AROUND ME LIKE THIS, THRE'S NO WAY I CAN FINISH THEM OFF IN 3 MINUTES WITH A RUMBLE BALL!" He then notices something is missing. "Hm? Where'd that other one go!? The one with the long nose! Where'd he go!?" He looks around frantically, calling out, "USOPP...!? Let me just say..." Ms. Merry Christmas looks up, confused. Chopper finishes his thought, "That you guys aren't the only ones, WHO CAN USE THESE TUNNELS!" Suddenly, Usopp leaps out of one of the mole holes in the ground, wielding a weapon.

Chopper cheers excitedly, "WAY TO GO! USOPP..." Ms. Merry Christmas is completely caught off guard, exclaiming, "He was inside our tunnels!?" Usopp swings a gigantic, black hammer with "5t" (5 tons) written on it. With a mighty swing, he smashes the massive hammer directly into Mr. 4's face with a loud "POUND!" Ms. Merry Christmas watches in absolute shock, screaming, "MR. 4! A 5 TON HAMMER!? WHERE'D A SCRAWNY BRAT LIKE HIM GET THE STRENGTH TO USE SOMETHING LIKE THAT!?"

Usopp stands triumphantly, resting the massive 5-ton hammer on his shoulder. He boasts confidently, "The number of ships I've sunk? Too many to count... The people call me, THE LORD OF DESTRUCTION." Chopper looks at him with stars in his eyes, completely amazed. "J-just who the hell are you!? 5 tons... YOU'RE AMAZING!" Usopp smirks and introduces himself, "My name's..." In a dramatic pose, pointing at himself, he declares, "CAPTAIN USOPP."

An SBS (Shitsumon o Boshū Suru) question and answer corner. A reader asks Oda to scold middle school boys for talking about Nami's chest. Oda replies that he can't help it because they are middle school boys. Another reader asks what happens if a person eats the Hito Hito (Human-Human) fruit. Oda jokingly answers that they "BECOME HUMAN", meaning they might become an adult or find their true spirit, before running away from the question. Finally, a reader demands to know about Sanji's hidden left eye. Oda brings out Sanji to reveal it, but the reveal is cut off with Oda shouting "WHOAAAAA!!! FOR REAL?!! WOW...!! THE SBS IS OVER!! SEE YOU NEXT TIME!!"
