Buggy the Clown, smoking and furious, yells “GODDAMN IT! WHY THAT FLASHY RUBBER BRAT WITH THE LUCK OF A DEVIL…!” while riding a large cannon-like contraption. Alvida stands nearby shouting “CAPT. BUGGY! YOU SURVIVED THE LIGHTNING!I” and “DAMN RIGHT I DID!” In the next tier, Buggy’s crew reacts in panic as one marine-like figure says “WHO JUST SAID MY NOSE IS SNOT-NOSED!I” and another notes “HMPH, AS IF PATHETIC SNOT-NOSED MARINES COULD EVER…” Buggy warns “WE’LL BE IN A TIGHT SPOT IF SOME BIG-NOSED MARINE SHOWS UP!” while spotting Tashigi and marines. A large bottom panel shows Buggy from below dramatically declaring “IT AIN’T OVER YET, BOYS! THAT RUBBER BRAT WON’T BE ABLE TO LEAVE THIS ISLAND!” and “HE AND HIS CREW PROBABLY HAVE NO CLUE THAT THEIR SHIP HAS BEEN BURNT TO ASHES BY NOW!” as his men cheer “SO LET’S FINISH’EM OFF AND HAUL ASS OUTTA HERE!” with the giant sound effect “おおーっ!!”.

Buggy’s crew speeds away in the “BARA BARA CAR!” Buggy shouts “HEAD FOR THE WESTERN PORT!” while laughing “ギャハハハハハ”. A crewman replies “MOTOR!” and “YES, CAP’N!”. On a steep slope, pirates flee as marines shout “DON’T LET THE PIRATES ESCAPE!” and “LEAP!”. Alvida slides down yelling “HERE YOU GO, LADY ALVIDA!” and “THE SLOPE HAS BEEN SET!” with sound effects “ばばっ” and “すべっ”. The final panel shows the Bara Bara Car launching with “BOMB ENGINE!” and “SLIDE! SLIDE SUBMARINE SKIING!” as Buggy yells “ZERO FRICTION!” amid smoke and motion lines.

Smoker engulfs the area in thick white smoke from his Moku Moku no Mi powers. Pirates scream in panic as the smoke grabs them. One pirate yells "AGHH!" while another shouts "WHA... WHAT'S WITH THIS SMOKE!I" A massive explosion of smoke erupts with the sound effect "ボォウン!!!" as bodies fly everywhere. Buggy Pirates tumble through the air, one crying "GYAAA!" Another pirate yells "I'M... CAUGHT BY THE SMOKE!" Smoker emerges from the smoke, glaring, and declares "I DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO DEAL WITH YOU RUNTS. BRING OUT MY BILLOWER BIKE!" A marine calls out "CAPTAIN SMOKER!" as smoke billows around him with SFX "モク モク モク".

In the town square, a woman exclaims "HE CAUGHT BUGGY'S ENTIRE CREW IN AN INSTANT...!" Marines stand guard over the captured pirates piled in a cart. A marine shouts "DAMN THAT SMOKER!" while another adds "WE'VE ALL BEEN ROUNDED UP, CAP'N!" Tashigi reacts in shock: "S-SO STRONG! SO THAT'S THE MOKU MOKU DEVIL FRUIT ABILITY...!" Smoker speeds down the street on his massive three-wheeled Billower Bike with roaring engine SFX "ゴォオオオオ" and tire spin "ギャリリリ!". A narration box explains "SINCE MOST OF THE BIG-NAME CROOKS ARE DEVIL FRUIT USERS, THE MARINES HAVE SPECIALLY DEVELOPED THESE 'IMPRISONING ROUNDS' TO DEAL WITH THEM!" A marine questions the iron net: "WHAT'S WITH THIS WEIRD IRON NET THAT THEY SHOT OUT FROM THEIR GUNSI"

At the outskirts of the western port, a ship burns as a snake-like figure clings to it. A voice panics "EVEN THOUGH I'M SUPPOSED TO BE BURNING THIS SHIP DOWN RIGHT NOW...!" and questions "WHY!I WHY DOES THERE HAVE TO BE A DOWNPOUR NOW OF ALL TIMES!I" with SFX "ゴォオオオオ". Richie the lion roars "GRRR" while Mohji yells "HEY YOU! GET AWAY FROM THAT BOAT!" Smoker appears, shouting "THIS IS BAD, RICHIE! WE CAN'T START A FIRE LIKE THIS!" with his weapon making "CHK CHK CHK!" sounds. In the next panels, a figure leaps as someone yells "HM!I WHO'S THAT!I" with impact SFX "つるん!!" and motion lines.

The fight continues with a large impact SFX "パキャッ!!" as someone misses: "CRAP, I MISSED!" A voice declares "CERTAIN KILL 'FRESH EGG STAR'" while another notes "L-LOOK! I FINISHED HIM OFF!" and "THE LION'S STILL LEFT, YOU KNOW!" with SFX "ガバーン!!". On the ship, a character shouts "NOW'S OUR CHANCE!" as Richie licks his paw with "LICK LICK" and growls "GRRI". In the street, Sanji says "DON'T, THERE'LL BE NO END TO THEM. MORE IMPORTANTLY, NAMI TOLD US TO RETURN TO THE SHIP AS FAST AS POSSIBLE." Zoro replies "SHOULD WE JUST STOP AND FIGHT THEM OFFI" while a voice adds "JEEZ, THESE GUYS ARE SO PERSISTENT. THE WIND'S GETTING WORSE." with running SFX and motion lines.

Roronoa Zoro strides down the Loguetown street with his swords at his side. A voice cries out, "RORONOA ZORO!" Nearby, Sgt. Major Tashigi gasps, "AH!" with a heart-shaped bubble. Tashigi confronts him, shouting, "YOU INTEND TO TAKE THIS SWORD TOOI" and "YOU WERE JUST TOYING WITH ME ALL ALONG!" She adds, "DOES THAT MEAN... TO THINK THAT YOU WERE RORONOA ZORO! AND A PIRATE AT THAT, TOO!" Zoro replies coolly, "...JUST TRY IT." Tashigi declares, "I SHALL TAKE BACK THAT WADO ICHIMONJI!" Enraged, she yells, "YOU BASTARD! WHAT DID YOU DO TO THAT LADY!I" and "NEVER THOUGHT YOU WERE A MARINE..." Zoro smirks, "SGT. MAJOR TASHIGI!" while Luffy watches from the background with a question mark overhead.

Luffy urges, "GO ON AHEAD." Zoro answers, "OK." The two clash violently in the rain-swept street as massive impact lines and "ドギャギーン" SFX explode around them. Zoro swings his swords while Luffy watches the fierce exchange. Tashigi smirks, "HEH." From afar, onlookers remark, "STILL NO SIGHT OF'EM." and "I WONDER IF THEY'RE ALL RIGHTI" Waves crash higher as someone shouts, "THE WAVES ARE CRASHING HIGHER AND HIGHER! ARE THEY STILL NOT BACK YETI" Luffy and a companion yell, "LET'S GO!" and "THAT BRUTE DARES HARM A LADY!I"

Tashigi refuses, "NO MATTER WHAT! I CAN'T HAND OVER THIS SWORD TO ANYONE..." Their blades clash with a loud "CLANG" and "ドギャギーン" SFX. Zoro presses, "WHY DIDN'T YOU CUT ME DOWN!I" Tashigi responds, "I'LL BE GOING ON AHEAD THEN." Panic spreads as voices cry, "SGT. MAJOR TASHIGI LOST...!" and "IT CAN'T BE!" Tashigi questions, "WHY ARE YOU SO LUCKY TO BE A BOY, ZORO... I'M A WOMANI IS IT BECAUSE..." while Zoro stands ready with his swords.

Tashigi continues, "BUT KNOW THAT I DIDN'T PICK UP THIS SWORD FOR FUN!" and "OF COURSE, I SHOULDN'T EXPECT SOMEONE LIKE YOU TO EVER UNDERSTAND WHAT WISHING TO BE BORN A MAN WOULD FEEL LIKE!" She accuses, "YOU DARE GO EASY ON ME IN A SERIOUS DUEL JUST BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT WOMEN AREN'T AS PHYSICALLY POWERFUL AS MEN!I HOW SHAMEFUL!" Zoro retorts, "YOUR FACE IS EXACTLY LIKE MY FRIEND WHO DIED LONG AGO!" and "IT'S YOUR DAMN EXISTENCE THAT BOTHERS ME, NOT YOUR GENDER!" Tashigi screams back, "WHAT DID YOU SAY!I" and "I HAVE NO IDEA WHO THIS FRIEND OF YOURS EVEN IS! IN FACT, I SHOULD BE THE ONE WHO'S COMPLAINING HERE! I'VE ALWAYS LIVED BEING ME AND ONLY ME MY ENTIRE LIFE! WHAT!I I'VE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING SO CHILDISH IN MY LIFE BEFORE! SO STOP COPYING HER, YOU RIP-OFF! AND NOW YOU GO ON SPOUTIN' THE SAME THINGS SHE DID!" A background figure mutters, "LIHH, SGT..."

In the rainy streets of Loguetown, Smoker stands alone as rain pours down. A voice calls out, "STRAW HAT LUFFY." Smoker turns slightly and says, "SO YOU'VE COME." Nearby townspeople notice the commotion: "SOMEONE'S UP AHEAD!" "ANOTHER ONEI" Smoker faces Luffy directly in close-up, declaring, "I'M A CAPTAIN OF THE MARINE HEAD-QUARTERS. THE NAME'S SMOKER." Luffy stares in shock and yells, "WHO'RE YOU!I" Without hesitation, Smoker transforms his lower body into billowing white smoke and launches a powerful strike, shouting, "AND I WON'T ALLOW YOU TO SET SAIL FROM HERE!" The impact sends smoke exploding outward as Luffy is hurled back.

Smoker presses the attack, smoke swirling violently around Luffy. Luffy shouts, "WHY YOU..." as he is slammed by the dense white cloud. "W-W-WHAT!I" he cries in surprise. "AHH!" Luffy yells as another blow lands with a loud "バフッ!!" Smoker glares coldly and states, "FREAK OF NATURE!" In a flash, Luffy stretches his rubber body and counters with a spinning kick, the impact marked by massive "ゴクッ...!!" sound effects. Smoker remains unfazed and replies, "I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR RUNTS." Tashigi appears at his side, her glasses reflecting light as she glares and exclaims, "WHAT!I"

Luffy is sent flying through the air by another smoke blast. He calls out desperately, "SANJI!" while yelling, "WHY YOU...!" Smoker unleashes his technique with the words "WHITE BLOW!" Luffy stretches his arm back and fires, shouting, "GOMU GOMU PISTOL!" The rubber fist rockets forward and connects. In the next moment Luffy stares in disbelief, asking, "ARE YOU REALLY WORTH 30 MILLION BELI!I" Smoker, unfazed, simply exhales smoke and mutters, "HUHI" as more smoke drifts from his body.

23
The fight intensifies as Smoker grabs Luffy mid-air. Luffy yells "GRAB" while twisting his body. Smoker is struck hard, grunting "AGHH!" and "DOOF!" as he is slammed down with a loud "ベチャッ!!" Recovering, Smoker reaches out again and says, "HMPH, LOOKS LIKE YOUR LUCK'S COME TO AN END. OR PERHAPS NOT...I" Luffy reacts with wide-eyed surprise marked by "!!!I" and "!I" as the two continue their fierce exchange of blows amid swirling smoke and motion lines.

In a rain-soaked Loguetown street, Smoker lies sprawled on the ground, his jitte fallen beside him. A towering figure in a black cloak looms over him, one hand raised. Smoker growls, "YOU'RE...!" A massive question mark bubbles above his head. The cloaked man's face fills the next panel, revealing a stitched X-shaped scar across his left eye as dramatic speed lines emphasize his presence. The cloaked man declares, "THE WORLD AWAITS OUR ANSWER...!" In a smaller panel, a spiky-haired figure with a long nose shouts, "THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT IS AFTER YOUR HEAD, YOU KNOW." A close-up of the spiky-haired man's wide eye reacts with "WHAT!I WHO'S THERE!I"

A sudden violent gust erupts across the docks, sending debris, weapons, and people flying. The cloaked figure's arm stretches forward amid swirling wind lines as the blast hurls Smoker and others backward. "IT'S A GUST!" someone yells amid the chaos. Luffy's crew reacts in panic: "LUFFY! RUN FOR IT OR WE'LL BE TRAPPED ON THIS ISLAND!" a fish-man-like crewmate screams, "A HUGE-ASS STORM'S COMING IN!" Another panel shows the cloaked man grabbing at the wind while a crewmate cries "AGHHHHH!" Below, Smoker and Tashigi sprint through the rain; Smoker exclaims, "SO THIS IS WHAT NAMI WAS TALKING ABOUT!" while Tashigi shouts "WHA, WHAT'S GOING ONI" and another voice calls "I SAID MOVE IT!"

The cloaked man raises an open hand as wind swirls around it, declaring, "IF THAT IS YOUR DESIRE!" He continues with a laugh, "GO ON THEN, HAHA..." In the next panel his scarred face appears in extreme close-up, asking, "WHAT REASON DO YOU HAVE FOR PREVENTING A MAN FROM SETTING SAILI" A side panel shows Smoker glaring upward, shouting "DRAGON!" and "WHY YOU HELP HIM ESCAPE!I" Massive onomatopoeia "ゴロゴロ ゴロ..." rumbles across the bottom of the page as heavy rain lashes the town rooftops below.

The Straw Hat crew scrambles aboard their ship in the pouring rain. Nami yells, "HURRY UP AND GET ON BOARD! WE'RE SETTING SAIL IMMEDIATELY!" Usopp shouts from the deck, "NAM! I'M BAAAACK! LOOK AT ALL THIS RAIN!" while another crewmate warns, "HURRY UP! THIS ROPE WON'T HOLD FOR MUCH LONGER!" Luffy calls out. Sanji states, "I'LL GO TO GRAND LINE AS WELL." Smoker, bandaged and furious, growls, "I'M CONTINUING MY PURSUIT FOR STRAW HAT. TAKE OUT OUR SHIP." Marines apologize, "FORGIVE US, SIR! BECAUSE OF THAT SUDDEN GUST, THE BUGGY PIRATES HAVE MANAGED TO ESCA..." Tashigi glares forward, declaring, "I SWEAR I'LL BRING HIM DOWN WITH MY OWN TWO HANDS!" and "I CAN'T FORGIVE THAT RORONOA ZORO!" A marine behind her answers, "SGT. MAJOR! I'M COMING TOO, SIR!"

A furious marine officer with a cigar clenched in his teeth snaps back, "DON'T ORDER ME AROUND!" while another marine pleads, "BUT SIR! THIS TOWN IS UNDER YOUR JURISDICTION...! WHAT WILL THE HIGHER-UPS SAY IF THEY HEAR YOU ABA..." Inside a dimly lit hall, Buggy the clown pirate growls, "SO WE MIGHT AS WELL GO RIGHT IN. AND I STILL HAVE TO SETTLE THINGS WITH THAT RUBBER BRAT." Alvida stands nearby with arms crossed as the crew reacts. Someone exclaims, "YES, NOW'S A GOOD TIME." A sudden realization hits: "G... GRAND LINE!I" Buggy's face fills the panel in manic glee, shouting "GRAND LINE!" and "O' HOW LONG I'VE MISSED YOU..."

The Going Merry sails through rough seas toward a towering lighthouse. Nami notes, "IT'S KNOWN AS THE 'LIGHT OF GUIDANCE.'" The crew spots the beacon: "YOU SEE THAT LIGHT OVER THEREI" "YAHOO! THE SHIP FEELS LIKE IT'LL FLIP RIGHT OVER!" Nami asks, "SO WHAT SHALL WE DOI" as the lighthouse looms. "IS JUST UP AHEAD OF THAT LIGHT. THE ENTRANCE TO THE GRAND LINE." Usopp panics from below deck, "SO WE'VE REACHED GRAND LINE, HAVE WEI WELL THIS CALLS FOR A CELEBRATION! GUYS!I" Sanji warns, "D-DON'T YOU GUYS THINK THAT ENTERING GRAND LINE IN THE MIDST OF THIS STORM IS A BIT..." The crew stands together on deck. Zoro declares, "TO BE THE GREATEST SWORDSMAN..." Luffy roars, "TO BECOME THE PIRATE KING!" Sanji adds, "TO FIND ALL BLUE."

Luffy continues his dream, "T... T-TO BECOME A BRAVE WARRIOR OF THE SEAS!" Nami smiles and taps, "TO DRAW A MAP OF THE WORLD!" The ship surges forward past the lighthouse as a massive impact shakes it: "CRUNCH!" The crew cheers, "OFF TO GRAND LINE WE GO!" Enormous stylized sound effects and motion lines fill the page as the Going Merry crashes through the waves into the unknown sea.
