The title page reads "Chapter 17: HIGH LEVEL, LOW LEVEL". The illustration features Monkey D. Luffy laughing enthusiastically as he high-fives a giant penguin-like creature wearing a pirate captain's hat adorned with a skull and crossbones. In the background, Nami rests on a set of stairs near Buggy and several other smaller penguins dressed in various clothing and carrying items around the sunny outdoor setting.

In the middle of a damaged town street, Roronoa Zoro stands off against the acrobat swordsman Cabaji. Blood drips steadily from a severe wound on Zoro's side, hitting the ground with "DRIP PLIP" sounds. Large "DA" and "DOP" sound effects emphasize the tense atmosphere. In the background, Nami and Luffy observe the confrontation. Nami looks deeply worried, holding her face as she says, "I'M FEELING FAINT JUST WATCHING THIS!" Next to her, Luffy cheers loudly, shouting, "GET 'IM, ZOLO!!" accompanied by a "YEAH!" sound effect. A close-up focuses on Zoro, who has his bandana tied on and a sword gripped in his mouth. He states with determination, "I CAN'T LOSE, NOT EVEN ONCE..." The following panel shows a close-up of Cabaji glaring back, completing the thought: "...TO ANYONE WHO CALLS HIMSELF A SWORDSMAN!!"

Cabaji stands confidently with his sword resting against his shoulder, his checkered scarf blowing in the wind. He taunts his opponent, saying, "SO YOU INJURED YOURSELF AS INSURANCE FOR YOUR REPUTATION... WELL, DON'T WORRY..." He adds, "YOUR WOUNDS ARE SEVERE. THEY'LL MAKE AN EXCELLENT EXCUSE WHEN YOU LOSE." In response, Zoro takes a wide, grounded stance and draws his two remaining swords with a loud "GA-SHEEN!!" sound effect, now wielding three blades. A "SMIRK" sound effect appears next to his confident expression. Zoro fires back, "IT'S THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!" He continues, "IF I LOSE TO THE LIKES OF YOU WHEN MY WOUNDS ARE ONLY THIS LIGHT..." and finishes his declaration, "THEN I MAY AS WELL GIVE UP MY DREAM RIGHT NOW." Cabaji's confident demeanor cracks slightly; he sweats and glares, muttering, "...!!" and "YOU SCURVY DOG!!" A small panel below shows the lower half of Buggy's face, his prominent red nose visible, as he watches the exchange in silence with a "...".

This page is mostly blank white space, serving as a chapter end page. In the bottom right corner, there is a small, simple sketch of Monkey D. Luffy. He is smiling cheerfully with his arms crossed over his chest.

Nami calls out, "HEY!" to get Luffy's attention. Luffy looks at her, confused, saying, "HUH?" as Nami points past him with a "FWAP!" sound. She points toward a small building in the background, explaining, "THAT SHACK BEHIND THE RUINS OF THE TAVERN... THAT'S WHERE THEY KEEP THEIR TREASURE." An image of Buggy standing imposingly with his arms crossed appears with a "SHAADOO" sound effect, as Nami continues, "AND BUGGY'S PROBABLY GOT THE MAP OF THE GRAND LINE." Nami looks determined, thinking to herself, "I'LL GET THEIR TREASURE AND MAKE MY ESCAPE. I'VE GOT TO DO IT NOW, WHILE THEY'RE ALL KNOCKED OUT..." She then closes her eyes with a slight smile, telling Luffy, "WHETHER YOU GUYS WIN OR LOSE THIS BATTLE..." Luffy watches her as she finishes, "I DON'T REALLY CARE!"

Nami points confidently at Luffy, adding a condition: "BUT IF YOU DO GET THAT MAP FROM BUGGY... THEN-- AND ONLY THEN-- WILL I CONSIDER TEAMING UP WITH YOU AGAIN..." She turns and runs off toward the shack with a "TMP TMP" sound, calling back over her shoulder, "GOOD LUCK, BOYS! SEE YA!" Luffy smiles broadly and waves at her, replying, "WOW! THANKS!" The scene shifts back to the fight. Cabaji balances on his unicycle, holding his sword horizontally. Several tops are spinning rapidly on the blade with a "WHRR" sound. He shouts, "RORONOA ZOLO!! HAVE A TASTE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL MY CIRCUS TRICKS!!" In the background, Zoro stands ready in his three-sword stance, watching silently.

Cabaji launches the spinning tops toward Zoro with a massive "SWISH" sound effect. He yells, "AND NOW 'THE DANCE OF A HUNDRED KAMIKAZE TOPS'!!!" The tops fly through the air like projectiles. Zoro's eyes widen in surprise ("!") as the tops approach. He quickly swings his swords to deflect them. Meanwhile, Cabaji rides his unicycle straight up the vertical wall of a nearby building. A "ZOOM!" sound effect accompanies his rapid ascent, along with the "RERK RERK RERK RERK" sound of the unicycle wheel gripping the wall. He announces his next move: "CIRCUS TRICK: 'A HIKE IN THE MOUNTAINS.'"

Zoro rapidly deflects the barrage of spinning tops with his swords. Large "WAK WAK WAK WAK" sound effects fill the panel as the tops bounce off his blades. He grunts, "...!" while blocking the projectiles. Suddenly, Zoro notices something above him ("!"). He looks up to see Cabaji leaping high into the air from the roof of the building with a "FWOOSH" and a "BOUND!" Cabaji descends toward Zoro, announcing, "CIRCUS TRICK: 'FIREWORKS IN THE COOL SUMMER BREEZE.'" Zoro remains in a low, defensive stance, gripping his swords tightly as he watches Cabaji's aerial attack.

Cabaji is high up in the air on his unicycle, holding his sword ready. A large "ZWEEEN" sound effect accompanies his ascent. He announces his attack, "'STING OF THE UNICYCLE'!!" Luffy looks up, shielding his eyes from the sun, and exclaims, "WOW! HE'S WAY UP THERE!" Zoro, with his third sword in his mouth, looks up at his descending opponent, sweating slightly. In a small panel, Buggy watches silently with a "..." bubble, while a "SWAP" sound effect indicates movement near his body. The bottom panel shows a dynamic angle from behind Zoro as he looks up at Cabaji plummeting towards him. A massive "WOO" sound effect fills the air as Cabaji descends, and Zoro readies his swords to defend against the incoming strike.

As Cabaji plummets toward Zoro, a sudden threat emerges from the side. Buggy launches his detached hand, gripping a knife, straight at Zoro. Buggy yells, "LOW-FLYING CHOP-CHOP CANNON!!" accompanied by a massive "KA-BOOM!!" sound effect. Zoro notices the incoming hand with a shocked "!!" as it flies toward him with a loud "WOOSH". Buggy commands his subordinate, "I'LL HOLD ZOLO DOWN!! YOU FINISH HIM OFF!! CABAJI!!" Cabaji, still falling, smirks wickedly and replies, "WITH PLEASURE!" Zoro is caught off guard, looking back over his shoulder at the flying hand approaching his injured side, gritting his teeth and muttering, "DANG...!!"

A massive "STOMP" sound effect dominates the top half of the page. Luffy leaps into action, bringing his sandaled foot down hard on Buggy's detached hand, pinning it firmly to the ground and forcing it to drop the knife. A surprised "?!!" bubble emanates from the trapped hand. In the next panel, Buggy screams in agony, "ARRGHH!", feeling the crushing impact on his disconnected limb. Zoro looks back in surprise, calling out, "LUFFY!" Luffy is shown sitting casually on the ground, holding his straw hat, his foot still planted on Buggy's hand. In the background, Buggy is reeling in pain from the stomp.

Luffy looks up with a fierce, confident grin, a large "DOOM!" sound effect emphasizing his intense expression. He shouts angrily at Buggy, "KEEP YOUR MITTS OUT OF ZOLO'S DUEL!" Buggy, clutching his injured hand in the background, glares back and mutters, "YOU LITTLE..." Zoro, shown in silhouette with a "GRIN" sound effect, smirks and says, "HEH..." Cabaji lands his unicycle on the ground with a loud "FWOOSH" sound effect. He looks annoyed by the interference and declares to Zoro, "I DON'T NEED THE CAPTAIN TO LEND ME A HAND TO KILL YOU!!"

The top panel shows Cabaji riding his unicycle aggressively toward Zoro, his sword raised high to strike. Zoro is kneeling on the ground, looking up at the incoming attack with a sharp "!!" burst of surprise. In the middle panel, a close-up shows Zoro panting heavily, "HUFF HUFF...", with his heart pounding rapidly, indicated by "BA-BUMP BA-BUMP" sound effects near his chest. In the bottom right, Cabaji smirks confidently, uttering a dismissive "HMPH!". The bottom left panel shows Zoro still kneeling, catching his breath with "HUF HUF" sounds. He declares, "I'VE HAD ENOUGH... I'M TIRED...". In the background, Cabaji stops his unicycle, looking confused by Zoro's sudden admission, marked by a "?!" bubble.

In the top panel, Cabaji holds a hand to his face, laughing mockingly at Zoro's apparent surrender. He taunts, "YOU'RE TIRED? HEH HEH HEH... WHAT'S WRONG? ANEMIC?" He continues, "SO YOU'VE FINALLY GIVEN UP! WELL, I'M NOT SURPRISED... IT'S AMAZING YOU CAN STILL STAND IN YOUR CONDITION." The bottom panel explodes with action. Zoro suddenly lunges forward with incredible speed, a massive "THWACK" sound effect dominating the scene. He strikes Cabaji with a powerful blow, grunting "UNGH...!!!". Cabaji is caught completely off guard, his eyes wide in shock with a large "?!!!" bubble as he is knocked backward off his unicycle by the sheer force of Zoro's sudden attack.

The top panel features a close-up of Zoro's intense, determined face. A large "VEN!!" sound effect emphasizes his fierce expression. He corrects Cabaji, saying, "YOU'VE GOT IT WRONG. WHAT I'M TIRED OF... ARE YOUR STUPID CIRCUS TRICKS!!!" In the middle right panel, Cabaji recovers his footing, looking enraged. He grips his sword tightly with a "WSH!!" sound and declares, "...! VERY WELL! NO MORE TRICKS! I'LL FINISH YOU NOW... WITH MY REAL SWORDSMANSHIP!!!" Two small vertical panels show reactions: Luffy watches intently with a serious expression, and below him, Buggy looks on with wide, shocked eyes. In the bottom left panel, Zoro shifts into a low stance, crossing his two hand-held swords in front of him while gripping the third in his mouth. A "SWURP" sound effect accompanies his movement as he begins to call out his attack, "ONI...".

This page is a dramatic, full-page splash panel capturing the climax of the battle. Zoro is shown in the foreground from behind, having just dashed past his opponent with blinding speed. His arms are spread wide, his swords extended outward after delivering a devastating cross-slash. In the background, Cabaji is suspended mid-air, his body reeling backward as a massive spray of blood erupts from his chest. A huge "GIRI!!!*" sound effect fills the upper right corner, completing the name of Zoro's attack, alongside a sharp "!!!" burst near the wounded Cabaji. Intense speed lines radiate outward, emphasizing the explosive power and swiftness of the strike. A small note in the bottom left margin explains, "* ONIGIRI = 'DEMON SLASH!'".

In the top panel, Luffy smiles cheerfully. Next to him, Buggy looks shocked and furious, his eyes wide as he screams, "CABAJI!!!!" In the middle panel, Cabaji falls backward, blood spraying from his chest wound, his checkered scarf trailing in the air. He thinks to himself, "GGH...! HOW COULD THESE COMMON THIEVES HAVE BEATEN US? WE'RE THE BUGGY PIRATE GANG--THE SCOURGE OF THE SEAS!!" Another bubble near him reads, "HOW COULD THINGS HAVE GONE THIS FAR...?" In the background, Zoro stands victorious, holding his swords. In the bottom right panel, Cabaji hits the ground hard with a loud "FWUMP!!", kicking up a cloud of dust. Zoro stands nearby, looking down at him. In the bottom left panel, a close-up shows Zoro panting heavily with "HUF HUF" sounds and sweating profusely. He pulls off his dark bandana with a "FWOMP" sound and says, "WE'RE NOT COMMON THIEVES..."

A large top panel shows the aftermath of the battle. Zoro finishes his statement from the previous page, shouting, "WE'RE PIRATES!" Large sound effect letters fill the background. Cabaji lies face down and unconscious in the foreground. Zoro drops his two swords to the ground, producing "KLANK KLANK" sound effects. In the background, Luffy and Buggy stand watching. In the bottom right panel, Zoro collapses onto his back in the dirt, completely exhausted and sweating. He says, "LUFFY... I'M GOING TO SLEEP NOW." In the bottom middle panel, Luffy replies, "GO AHEAD AND SLEEP!" In the bottom left panel, Luffy smiles confidently, punching his fist into his open palm with a "TOING" sound. He declares, "I'LL TAKE IT FROM HERE!"

In the top panel, Buggy glares menacingly, his face shadowed under his pirate hat. He says, "YOU GUYS......CALL YOURSELVES PIRATES!?" In the middle panel, Luffy stands casually with his back to the viewer, facing Buggy in the distance among the town's ruins. Luffy holds out his hand expectantly and says, "THAT'S RIGHT! NOW HAND OVER THE MAP OF THE GRAND LINE!!" In the bottom right panel, a close-up shows Buggy smirking confidently. He mocks them, "SO THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE AFTER. WELL, A COUPLE OF LILY-LIVERED, NO-NAME PIRATES LIKE YOU WON'T LAST A DAY ON THE GRAND LINE!!" In the bottom left panel, Buggy continues his rant, yelling, "WHAT DO YOU PLAN TO DO THERE!? GO SIGHTSEEING!?"

In the top panel, Luffy looks straight ahead with a calm, serious, and determined expression. He states simply, "I'M GONNA BE KING OF THE PIRATES." In the bottom right panel, Buggy bursts into uncontrollable, mocking laughter, throwing his head back with "HURF ACK HAR" and a large stylized laughter sound effect. In the bottom left panel, Buggy suddenly stops laughing and yells furiously, his angry face dominating the panel. He shouts, "DON'T BE A FOOL! IF YOU'RE KING OF PIRATES, THEN WHAT AM I!? GOD OF THE PIRATES!? THE WORLD'S TREASURE WILL BE MINE! SO FORGET IT!"

In the top left panel, Buggy stands aggressively, holding three knives between the fingers of each hand. The blades gleam with a sharp "CHEENG!" sound effect. A large "FWOOSH!!" sound effect fills the background behind him. He glares and threatens, "YOU'LL SOON REGRET YOUR WORDS, RUBBER BOY!" In the top right panel, Luffy stands casually, cracking his knuckles with a "KRAK KRAK" sound. He looks completely unfazed and replies, "I'M GETTING BORED. OKAY, HURRY UP AND ATTACK ME." The bottom half of the page shifts to a tense exchange. In the bottom right panel, a close-up shows Buggy's face, his expression turning serious and slightly angry. He says, "YOU AND YOUR STRAW HAT REMIND ME OF HIM WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER..." In the bottom middle panel, Buggy continues, his mouth wide open in a furious shout, "THAT INSOLENT DOG WITH THE RED HAIR!!!" The bottom left panel shows a close-up of Luffy's face, his eyes wide with surprise and confusion. He repeats, "...RED HAIR!?" At the very bottom of the page, text reads, "TO BE CONTINUED IN ONE PIECE, VOL. 3!"

This page is a bonus craft activity titled "Let's make a Sproingy Luffy!". It features a line drawing of Luffy standing on a rolled-up mat, labeled "Part I", with a dotted line around him indicating where to cut. Next to him is a separate drawing of his clenched fist, labeled "Part II". On the right side of the page are two long, vertical rectangular strips labeled "Part III" and "Part IV".
22
This page continues the bonus craft activity with the title "How to make a Sproingy Luffy:". It lists the required materials: "Scissors - Glue or paste - Crayons, markers, or colored pencils - Stiff paper - The strong will to make Sproingy Luffy". Below are the first five steps of the instructions. Step 1 says to color the parts, suggesting flesh color for Parts II, III, and IV, and notes that people who don't want to mess up their books can use a photocopy. Step 2 instructs to cut out the parts along the dotted lines. Step 3 says to paste Part I onto a piece of stiff paper. Step 4 advises waiting for the glue to dry, adding humorously, "Act cool. You can dance while you wait, too." Step 5 instructs to cut out Part I again, following Luffy's outline this time, and to carefully cut slots around his legs to make him stand up. Small diagrams accompany the steps, showing the cut-out pieces, the pasting process, and how to assemble the base to make the figure stand with a "Ta-Da!"
23
This page concludes the instructions for the "Sproingy Luffy" craft. Step 6 explains how to glue Part III and Part IV at right angles and fold them over each other repeatedly "like you're weaving" to create a springy piece. Detailed diagrams show the folding process step-by-step. Text points to the finished folded paper spring, saying, "You should get something sproingy like this thing," and instructs to glue the other ends together. Step 7, titled "Assemble (Rise, Luffy, Rise!)", shows how to glue the square part of the springy bit onto the paper Luffy's right shoulder, and then glue Part II (the fist) to the other end of the spring. Step 8 shows the final result with the text "COMPLETION!" and a "boiii-iing!" sound effect as the paper Luffy's fist extends outward on the spring.
24
This page is the back cover of One Piece Volume 2. The top displays the series logo 'ONE PIECE' with 'volume 2' next to it, under the 'EAST BLUE' and 'SHONEN JUMP' banners. A large illustration features Monkey D. Luffy running forward with a wide, cheerful smile, holding up his hand in a prominent peace sign that dominates the foreground. The left side contains a summary text block titled 'EAST BLUE Part 2'. The text reads: 'As a kid, Monkey D. Luffy vowed to become King of the Pirates and find the legendary treasure called the "One Piece." The enchanted Gum-Gum fruit has given Luffy the power to stretch like rubber—and his new crewmate, the infamous pirate hunter Roronoa Zolo, strikes fear into the hearts of other buccaneers! But what chance does one rubber guy stand against Nami, a thief so tough she specializes in robbing pirates... or Captain Buggy, a fiendish pirate lord whose weird, clownish appearance conceals even weirder powers? It's pirate vs. pirate in the second swashbuckling volume of One Piece!' The bottom section includes the website 'onepiece.viz.com', pricing information, a barcode, and publisher logos for VIZ Media.
