Flying monsters fill the sky above Elbaf as two horned figures stand on a stone bridge. A voice cries, "MORE MONSTERS!!" Another asks, "WHERE DID THEY COME FROMI!" A woman in a helmet gasps, "HUHI WHAT THE-I!" while someone shouts, "PRINCIPAL!!" and another declares, "NO ONE COULD CALL IT OVERKILL AFTER SEEING THIS..." Below, the same woman clutches her face in shock, yelling, "WHAT'S GOING ON!!" and "I DON'T UNDERSTAND!! HEY!!" as children collapse across the village. A man roars, "WHAT'S HAPPENINGI WAKE UP, EVERYONE! THE KIDS ARE PASSING OUT!!" In the chaos below, a giant carries a struggling figure who shouts, "PUT ME DOWN, SAUL! LET ME EXAMINE THEM!" while Saul replies, "OKAY!! HELP THEM WITH WHATEVER THIS IS!!" and another voice urges, "WE'VE GOTTA STOP THE OTHER KIDS AND GET THEM TO SAFETY!!"
In a fiery, mountainous landscape marked "REALM OF THE DEAD," a massive horned warrior grips a huge hammer. A voice taunts, "...WOULD BE ENOUGH TO SAP MY STRENGTHI HOW NAIVE..." and another warns, "DID YOU THINK JUST KEEPING ONE SEASTONE SHACKLE ON..." The giant declares, "REST ASSURED... EVEN IN MY CURRENT STATE, I'M FAR FROM HELPLESS!!" and threatens, "IF YOU CARE ABOUT KEEPING ELBAF SAFE, REMOVE THE LAST SHACKLE." Luffy stares in shock, shouting, "YOU...!!" while another figure asks, "WHAT'S HIS DEALI" The warrior continues, "I'D HURRY IF I WERE YOU. IF I STRIKE... THE FLAMES WILL RAGE!!" and asks, "YOU KNOW ABOUT ELBAF'S GREATEST WEAKNESS, RIGHTI!" as smaller figures watch from below.

Loki swings his massive hammer with a furious cry, "STOP IT, LOKI!! I WILL WIPE YOU ALL OUT!!" The impact creates a massive shockwave marked by large SFX and motion lines.

A teacher with long black hair and glasses smiles warmly while holding up the papers. "EACH OF YOU HAS A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE, AND YOUR IMAGINATIONS ARE AMAZING! BUT THESE DRAWING AND WRITING EXERCISES REALLY LET YOUR PERSONALITIES SHINE!" A young girl in a straw hat looks worried and says, "MISS... THINKING ABOUT THIS STUFF......IS GONNA GIVE ME NIGHTMARES." The teacher replies gently, "HEHE, SORRY, YLVA." In the final panel a monstrous horned figure looms as others react in shock: "THAT'S CRAZY!!" "...ARE THE THINGS THE KIDS FEAR THE MOST!" "ALL THE BEASTS..."
