We've Gotta Do It!!

A massive black dragon-like shadow creature lunges through the air with a loud "HYUUN", its jaws open wide. Below, a Marine soldier screams in panic, "AHH...!!! WAIT, MORIA'S SHADOW!!" while another voice yells "DON'T GO!!" and "WHERE IS THIS PLACE!I" In a smaller panel, Luffy clutches his head in shock, sweat flying, reacting with "HI... HI..." A wide shot shows the shadow creature flying past a tall tower as someone shouts "HEEYYY!!" In the bottom spread, Luffy stands determined amid swirling shadows and debris, declaring "DAMN!! THIS IS BAD!! I TOLD EVERYONE I'D GET THEIR SHADOWS BACK!!" and "IT'S GOING TO BE BAD IF I DON'T HURRY!! WHAT'S A SHADOW!! WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME IF MY SHADOW'S GONEI" while a tiny figure warns "IF WE'RE LIKE THIS WHEN THE SUN COMES UP, THEN THE SUNLIGHT WILL DISSOLVE US!! I HAVE TO HURRY BEFORE THE SUN RISES... DAMN!!"

Explosive action erupts with massive sound effects "DODODODON!!!" and "BOGOCHA---N!!!" as a swordsman leaps across rooftops shouting "I GOT IT!! UOOOO!!!" and "COME ON, I'LL BE YOUR OPPONENT!!" In close combat, Zoro clashes swords violently with an opponent amid flying debris and impact lines "GARA GARA..." and "ZAG ZAG..." A close-up shows Zoro's intense glare. An ally warns "HEY!! ZORO, LOOK OUT!!!" Zoro swings his blade, noting "IT'S HEAVIER COMPARED TO MY OLD YUBASHIRI..." and "THE BLACK SWORD, SHUUSUI...!!!" while bracing against the heavy impact.

Chopper stares in shock, eyes wide, shouting "AMAZING!! HE PUSHED THE PUNCH ASIDE WITH HIS STRENGTH!!!" and "D-!!!" as Zoro is sent flying backward from a massive impact, blades flashing. In the next panel a giant stitched monster with horns and wild hair roars "UOO" while performing a powerful technique labeled "SANTOU-RYUU '108-POUND'". The creature swings its enormous arm, sending Zoro hurtling through the air. In the final panel Zoro spins mid-air and counters with a spinning sword strike labeled "CANNON!!!" as the monster reacts with "!!" and large impact effects.

A massive explosion rocks the battlefield as a huge bandaged arm swings down. "IT'S HUGE!!" someone yells. Ryuma, the zombie swordsman, unleashes a devastating slash that sends debris flying. "NOT BAD, FOR A MIDGET!!" he taunts. "IF I TOOK THAT, IT MIGHT HAVE CUT ME." The impact creates a massive crater. "ONE OF THE SLASHES SWALLOWED UP THE OTHER TWO...!!" A voice notes the power. Zoro stands firm, gripping his sword. "YOU LEFT ME SOMETHING GOOD... THE ATTACK POWER IS MUCH HIGHER... LOOKS LIKE THIS GUY ISN'T WELL-BEHAVED, EITHER. RYUUMA, THE MASTER SWORDSMAN...!!" He swings again, the blade carving through the air. "BUT THERE'S TOO MUCH POINTLESS DESTRUCTION AROUND THE CUT. I GUESS THAT PROVES I'M NOT USED TO THIS SWORD YET..."

Zoro clashes violently with the massive zombie. "YOU BASTARD, I'LL CRUSH YOU!!!" he roars as fists and blades collide amid flying rubble. "WHOA!!" The fight sends shockwaves through the ruins. Elsewhere, Franky watches the chaos. "THE ONLY SHADOW WE'LL GET BACK IS LUFFY'S!! WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR AND SANJI'S SHADOWS ARE!!" he shouts. "HEY, ZORO, DON'T BE RECKLESS!! EVEN IF YOU BEAT HIM..." A small figure adds, "BUT HE CAN'T DO EVERYTHING!!" Another voice replies, "I HAVE PLENTY OF FAITH IN LUFFY. LET'S JUST TRUST IN LUFFY AND CONCENTRATE ON SLOWING THIS ZOMBIE DOWN!! WE'LL GET BACK ALL OF THE SHADOWS!! BUT IF LUFFY DEFEATS MORIA, THERE'S NO NEED TO GET HURT BY AN UNDYING GIANT ZOMBIE!!"

Brook questions the odds. "WHO KNOWS IF THEY'LL FIGHT FAIRLY WITH LUFFYI" Sanji and others discuss the enemies. "THE PEOPLE GATHERED ON THIS ISLAND ALL HAVE ABILITIES THAT SCREW WITH YOU. AN INVISIBLE MAN, A GHOST GIRL, A MAN WHO CONTROLS SHADOWS... IT'S TRICKERY...!!" A hand grips a sword hilt. "WILL ALL BE UNABLE TO FIGHT!!! HIM, ME, AND THE COOK." Brook mutters, "IF LUFFY DOESN'T MAKE IT AND MORNING COMES..." "MUUU..." "YES, THAT IS TRUE." The giant zombie Oars looms over the group. "SO, BEFORE DAWN BREAKS, EVEN IF WE ONLY GET LUFFY BACK TO NORMAL, THEN IT'S NOT OVER!!!"

Sanji looks worried. "THE FOG IS OUR SAVING GRACE... HONESTLY, THINGS ARE LOOKING BAD... SO, IT'S FINALLY MORNING." Brook and the others stand tense. "WE DON'T EVEN HAVE 30 MINUTES UNTIL DAWN... THE FOG IS HEAVY ON THIS OCEAN. THE SUN WON'T REACH EVERYWHERE...!!" Suddenly the ground shakes violently. Oars staggers as the ruins tremble. "WHAT'S THIS SHAKING!!I" he bellows. "!I!!I" The massive zombie reacts in shock as debris flies. "UWAA! WHAT!I"

The fog begins to clear as the ship rocks violently in rough seas. Crew members shout in alarm: "I CAN SEE THE PRE-DAWN SKY!!" "LOOK!! THE SKY!!" "THE SHIP GOT CAUGHT IN A STRANGE CURRENT AGAIN!!" "GYAAA, WHAT'S GOING ON!I" "THE FOG IS CLEARING!!!" A massive sailing ship pitches wildly amid towering waves. Someone yells, "THIS MUST BE BECAUSE OF OZ SCREWING AROUND!!!" "THAT BASTARD, LOOK WHAT HE'S DONE!!!" Another voice wonders, "COULD IT BE THAT WE'VE LEFT THE 'FLORIAN TRIANGLE'!I" The ship is identified as Thriller Bark leaving the foggy waters. A figure cries out, "LORD MORIA!!" "SOMETHING TERRIBLE IS HAPPENING!!!" "BECAUSE OF OZ!!" Large sound effects echo across the turbulent scene: "うわあああ" "ゴゴゴゴゴ...!!" "はあぁっ!!"

Inside a grand ruined hall, Bartholomew Kuma stands facing Gecko Moria. Moria growls, "I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE PLOTTING... PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE ALWAYS THE MOST OMINOUS." Kuma replies calmly, "IF YOU WERE TO GO ON VACATION, I'M SURE THE GOVERNMENT LOVES YOU..." Moria retorts, "YOU WERE ALWAYS THE ONLY SHICHIBUKAI WHO DANCED FOR THE GOVERNMENT. ISN'T THAT RIGHT, 'TYRANT' KUMA!I" Kuma states, "I HAVE SOMETHING TO REPORT TO YOU. STATE YOUR BUSINESS... WHY DID YOU COME HEREI" Moria snaps, "HEY, CUT THAT OUT...!! I KNOW HOW YOUR POWER WORKS!! ARE YOU HERE FOR A FIGHT!I" A small fish-like creature warns, "MORE IMPORTANTLY... I'VE GOT AN UNEXPECTED GUEST RIGHT NOW, SO BE SILENT!" Moria adds, "WHAT ABOUT ITI AS LONG AS WE'RE ON THE OCEAN, I DON'T CARE!" Kuma remains silent with "..." and "ZU ZU..." while the hall crumbles around them.

Kuma continues his report: "REGARDING CROCODILE'S DEMOTION FROM THE SHICHIBUKAI... THE SUCCESSOR HAS BEEN DECIDED." He reveals, "THE SUCCESSOR'S NAME IS MARSHALL D. TEACH, ALSO KNOWN AS 'BLACKBEARD.' HE IS ALREADY BECOMING QUITE A DISTURBANCE IN THE WORLD... THOUGH THE NEWS MAY NOT HAVE PENETRATED THIS FOG." Moria reacts with shock, "I SEE, 'UNCERTAIN'... HE'S DONE WELL FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO RECOGNIZE HIM." "KISHISHISHI..." A crew member asks, "'BLACKBEARD'I HAVEN'T HEARD OF HIM. WHAT WAS HIS BOUNTY...I" Another mutters, "HE LEFT WHITEBEARD'S CREW... HE'S ALREADY SHOWN THAT HIS STRENGTH IS REAL." Kuma stands motionless as the conversation unfolds.

Moria responds, "NO, I SEE IT TOTALLY DIFFERENTLY... BUT THAT'S FINE. MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE GOVERNMENT SEEMS TO HAVE A CONCERN AT THE MOMENT." He continues, "WELL, IT'S GOOD TO HEAR THAT THEY'VE FILLED THE HOLE. THAT'LL RESTORE THE WORLD'S BALANCE OR WHATEVER, RIGHTI" The discussion turns to recent events: "AFTER THE ENIES LOBBY INCIDENT... THEY HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY MONITORING THE STRAWHAT PIRATES' MOVEMENTS. FOLLOWING THE LOG FROM WATER 7 TO THE MERMAID ISLAND, IT WAS HIGHLY LIKELY THAT THEY WOULD BE STOPPED HERE..." Moria concludes, "MAY BE TOPPLED BY THE STRAWHATs. THEY ARE AFRAID THAT ANOTHER SHICHIBUKAI..." Kuma listens silently with "..." and "!!!" as tension fills the ruined chamber.

A furious CP9 agent with a scarred face and tall hat glares with wide eyes, shouting, "IF THE NEED ARISES, I WOULDN'T BE OPPOSED TO COMING TO YOUR AID." Explosive impact lines and debris fill the panel as he roars, "DON'T FUCK WITH ME!!! THEY'RE WORRIED ABOUT ME!!I I CAME HERE TO GAIN CONTROL OVER THESE WEAK-ASS PIRATES, AND YOU'RE HERE FOR ME!!I" Another voice bellows, "WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE TALKING TO!!I" The scene shifts to a wide view of Enies Lobby's towering courthouse and drawbridge under dramatic speed lines and "KSSS... KSSS..." sound effects. Close-ups show the agent's enraged face as he yells, "TO BE DEFEATED AT ENIES LOBBYI WHO EXPECTED ROB LUCCII THERE IS NO CERTAINTY IN BATTLE. YOU THINK I MIGHT LOSE TO THAT TINY ROOKIE CREW!!I"

Gecko Moria looms in shadow, declaring, "I WAS NOT GIVEN ANY ORDERS... OTHER THAN GIVING YOU THIS REPORT..." A terrified subordinate sweats while replying, "SO YOU'RE SAYING... THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS THAT TERRIFIED OF THOSE BASTARDS BEATING TWO SHICHIBUKAI, HUH!I" Moria's massive silhouette fills the frame as he commands, "MADE INTO GECKO MORIA'S LOYAL ZOMBIES"!!!" and taunts, "WELL THEN, TAKE A GOOD LOOK!! AND YOU CAN TELL THOSE FOOLS IN THEIR GLASS HOUSE THIS!!! 'THE STRAWHAT CREW THAT OUTWITTED YOU... WERE EASILY..." The view cuts to the ruined battlefield where Usopp shouts in panic, "WHOSE CHEAP TRICK IS THIS, MAKING THE FOG CLEAR UP AT A TIME LIKE THIS!I THE SUN IS GOING TO SHINE RIGHT ON US." A crewmate cries, "THIS IS THE WORST...!!! OUR ONE HOPE WAS THE DEEP FOG...!!!"

The colossal zombie Oz towers over the battlefield, stitched and horned, laughing "KISHISHISHI...!!! THIS REFRESHING NIGHT AIR IS A PLEASANT SURPRISE... IT'LL BE DAWN SOON... CAN YOU REALLY AFFORD TO WASTE TIME...I" Straw Hat crew members stare up in shock: "MO... MORIA!!! THAT'S MORIA!!! WHY IS HE HERE!!!I WHERE'S LUFFY!I WAIT, USOPP, WHERE'S MORIA!I" Oz's massive belly is visible as voices realize, "HE... HE IS THERE!!! HIS STOMACHI HE'S IN OZ'S STOMACH!! HE'S HERE!! LOOK!!" Sanji and others react with horror while Luffy's tiny form is shown trapped inside. A small figure adds, "LUFFY WOULD NEVER GET BEATEN!! MAYBE...!!!"

Oz's grotesque face fills the panel as he boasts, "THAT'S SO COOL!! IT'S LIKE I'M A ROBOT!! OOH!! A COCKPIT!I MY STOMACH IS A COCKPIT!!I" Moria laughs "KISHISHISHI..." while the crew stares up in rising tension. Oz spreads his arms and challenges, "COME AT ME WITH EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT!!! BUT IF YOU DON'T BEAT OZ, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO GET TO ME...!!!! KISHISHISHI!!! I'LL GIVE YOU GUYS A CHANCE TO FIGHT ME. IF YOU BEAT ME, ALL THE SHADOWS CAN BE RELEASED." The Straw Hats stand together in the rubble; one shouts, "WE'VE GOTTA DO IT!!! BUT NOW, BOTH OF OUR TARGETS ARE HERE. BUT MORIA IS INSIDE OZ!!! WE CAN'T PURIFY OZ WITHOUT BEATING MORIA, THAT'S DIRTY, YOU BASTARD!!"

The crew scrambles to weaken the massive Oz before he reaches the mansion. "OKAY!! GOT IT!!" someone shouts. "WE'LL WEAKEN HIM AS MUCH AS WE CAN!!" "WE'VE GOT NO CHOICE BUT TO PURIFY OZ!!!" Usopp yells into his scope, "THEN GO FIND A MOUNTAIN OF SALT!!!" Franky adds, "USOPP, IF A LITTLE ISN'T ENOUGH..." From the ground, a voice confirms, "I'M PRETTY SURE THERE IS A KITCHEN IN THAT FIRST MANSION!! THERE SHOULD BE PLENTY OF SALT THERE. I'LL GO GET IT!!" A skeleton replies calmly, "YES, MASTER." Oz roars, "CRUSH THAT LONG-NOSE AND THE ENTRANCE TO THE MANSION!!" Another figure warns, "SALT...!!! DON'T LET THEM GET TO THE KITCHEN!!" Franky charges forward with a massive strike, sending debris flying as Usopp is hurled through the air. "HUHI" Usopp gasps in shock.

Usopp is blasted backward in a massive explosion of debris. "NO!!! USOPP!!!" someone cries. The others react in panic. "HE IS ALL RIGHT!!!" "USOPP!! SAY SOMETHING!!" A figure notes, "THIS IS BAD!! WITH MORIA INVOLVED, OZ HAS SOME BRAINS, TOO!!" Brook suddenly appears carrying an enormous sack labeled "SALT," shouting, "I THOUGHT A LARGE AMOUNT OF SALT WOULD BE NECESSARY, SO I WAS GATHERING IT!!! MY DEEPEST APOLOGIES FOR BEING LATE!!! BROOK!!!"
