Jigoro of the Wind

A massive armored knight stands in a stone corridor as a voice asks, "WHERE DID THEY DISAPPEAR TO...". Nearby, another armored figure exclaims, "WHAT ON EARTH ARE THEY...I!" while impact sounds "ギャン.." and "ゴゴゴゴ" echo. In a flashback panel, Sanji yells at a knight, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT SUCH A TIMEI!" as the knight replies, "DAMN ZORO AND SANJI." The knight adds, "KOSS". Sanji questions the armored figure: "YOU GOT YOUR HANDS ON A BODY OF STEEL... DID YOU LOSE YOUR HEART AT THE SAME TIMEI" The knight retorts, "HEY!! THERE WAS AN ARMOR JUST STANDING THERE!! AND IT'S A MAN'S ROMANCE TO WEAR ONE!" Sanji reacts, "ROMANCEI!...WELL, MAYBE." while pleading, "PLEASE FORGIVE ME!! I DIDN'T PLAN TO CHANGE MY HEART INTO A HEART OF STEEL, TOO!!" The large knight looms with motion lines and "ギャアア" effects.

Inside a grand hall, Brook plays a guitar and sings, "--THE MELODY THAT BLOWS THROUGH MY HEART WHEN I LOSE SOMETHING IMPORTANT... PLEASE LISTEN, 'THE CYBORG STEEL MOOD'." while declaring, "ALRIGHT!! SING!!" A voice worries, "DON'T THEY UNDERSTAND THE SITUATIONI" and another says, "WE GOT INTO THE HALL..." Usopp's group appears in the background. Nami asks, "ARE USOPP AND THE OTHERS THEREI" while replying, "I DON'T KNOW." A small panel shows a pig-like creature labeled "BUHIHI" with number "298". Nami stares silently with "...". Below, the group reaches a massive stage-like arena with curtains and banners; someone shouts, "WHAT IS THATI!" and another exclaims, "IT'S LIKE AN ARENA...!!!" A voice notes, "IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE OUTSIDE, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HALL."

A knight reacts with shock, "!I" as a figure crashes through a wall with impact effects "ガアア" and "ゴゴゴゴ". The pig-like creature warns, "BUHIHIHI, IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE, BUHI." In a dynamic panel, a horned armored warrior clashes swords with another fighter amid debris and motion lines, shouting "WHOA!!!" A close-up shows a wide-eyed, gritted-teeth expression with "!I". Below, a woman with dark hair stands near a broken structure with "..." and "ジャジャン..." sounds. A voice cries, "...!! WHO IS ITI!" as Franky bursts onto the scene yelling, "FRANKY!!!" with dramatic speed lines and impact effects.

A towering armored knight stands with multiple spears piercing its body. Onlookers react in shock: "... IT'S DEFINITELY A ZOMBIE...!!!" "WOOO!! IT'S A MOVING ARMOR!!" "HE'S MOVING EVEN THOUGH HIS BODY IS STABBED WITH SPEARS..." The figure grips a sword and shield as sound effects ring out. Franky charges forward and unleashes his attack, shouting "STRONG RIGHT"!!! The armored zombie counters, "DON'T SURPRISE ME!!!" and "THAT ZOMBIE HAS SOME NICE ARMOR...." Franky's massive fist collides with the knight in a burst of impact lines and debris as the zombie reels from the blow.

The armored zombie swings its massive sword with a fierce "GIRAA!" Franky dodges the strike, eyes wide as he yells "HAAI!" The blade slams into the wall with heavy impact sounds. Franky counters with a powerful upward swing, sending the zombie flying backward amid motion lines and debris while shouting "WHOA!!!" The zombie recovers mid-air. Close-ups show the knight's helmet and shield as Franky notes, "HIS SWORD SKILLS ARE PRETTY GOOD...!!!" The armored figure crashes through the wall, shattering stone as someone exclaims "...!!! THE WALL WAS...!!!"

Franky launches his next technique, roaring "WEAPONS LEFT"!!! A barrage of punches and mechanical strikes pummels the armored zombie, creating massive explosions and smoke. The zombie is hurled back, its body twisting from the force. In smaller panels the knight staggers, shield raised, as smoke and impact effects fill the air. Franky presses the assault with rapid strikes while the zombie blocks desperately. The sequence ends with a massive clash as the zombie is driven into the ground amid flying debris and the sound effect "キィーン!!!"

The armored zombie reels from the onslaught, helmet cracked and body smoking. Franky continues his assault with heavy blows as the zombie grunts "UGH!!!" In close-up the knight's face is visible beneath the helmet. Franky declares, "... I WON'T BE BEATEN...!!!" The zombie struggles, its sword clashing against Franky's attacks. A woman watches from the side with concern. Franky lands a final devastating strike, sending the zombie flying as he shouts "BY SUCH A CORPSE!" The impact creates a huge explosion of debris and motion lines.

In a ruined stone hall, a Straw Hat crew member stares in shock at the armored figure still standing amid rubble. "IT'S STILL UNSETTLED...!!!!" "...HE'S STILL STANDING...!!!" "HE'S TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE ZOMBIES WE'VE FACED SO FAR." The armored general zombie looms, unmoved. "HE DOESN'T FEEL PAIN AT ALL!! THE ARMORED GENERAL ZOMBIES ARE FIRM WARRIORS WHO EACH HAD A NAME WHILE THEY WERE ALIVE!! BUHI!!" A voice taunts from the side, "AH! HE'S SO FAR AWAY. BUHIHIHIHIH!! YOU SHOULD HAVE REALIZED IT BY NOW!! THAT'S THE TERROR OF A REAL ZOMBIE, EVEN IF HE HAS HIS FAULTS!!" The massive pig-faced zombie leader fills the panel, eyes wild, declaring, "THE LEADER OF THE KNIGHTS OF SOME KINGDOM, A BRUTAL CRIMINAL. A LEGENDARY SAMURAI!! A PIRATE!! A MARTIAL ARTIST!! THERE IS NO WAY FOR YOU TO WIN!! BUHIHIHI!!! NONE OF YOUR NAKAMA ARE SAFE. YOU'RE GONNA REGRET THIS!! THINK ABOUT THOSE GUYS BECOMING IMMORTAL!!!"

The hallway shakes violently. "WHOAA!!...SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE......IT'S NOT JUST THE WAY BEHIND US THAT WAS SEALED." Explosions and impacts erupt as "ZUUUN!!" and "ZASHAN!!" sound. "THE HALLWAY WAS SEALED!!" "YES" "WALL ZOMBIE!!" "YOU BASTARD!!" A fish-like zombie reels from a blow, "BUHIH!!!" while another cries "AH!!" The Straw Hat fighters face a massive armored horde. "TOO STRONG...!!!" "THEY'RE COVERED IN ARMOR!!!" A towering armored general zombie with a cannon arm and the number 889 advances alongside knights and a horse-like zombie. "THAT IS DEFINITELY..."

Nico Robin assesses the situation calmly. "IF WE ESCAPE THIS HALL... WE CAN GET TO THE COURTYARD." A crew member replies, "--I SEE, THAT'S RIGHT, TOO. THIS ISN'T THE FINAL MATCH." Another warns, "THEY ARE ALL OPPONENTS THAT WILL ONLY EXHAUST US!!" "IF WE FACE THEM ONE BY ONE, WE WON'T BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND EVEN ONE ATTACK." The fight erupts as a Straw Hat fighter charges, "TAKE THIS!!!" An armored zombie grunts "FUFU... THAT'S RIGHT." The leader shouts, "ALRIGHT! SO THE THREE OF US WILL MEET THERE. MAKE SURE NO ONE DISAPPEARS!!" With fierce expressions, the group yells together, "HERE WE GO!!!"

Chaos explodes in the hallway. Swords clash and debris flies as "ORAAAA!!!" rings out. Nico Robin launches an attack, "ITORYUU...!! '36-POUND CANNON'!!" A massive impact sends armored zombies flying. "MOVE ASIDE!!!" A crew member is hurled back, "WAH!!" while another cries "THAT TECHNIQUE!!...ZOROI!I!" Impact lines and shattered armor fill the panel as the Straw Hats press forward through the zombie knights.

A towering General Zombie looms in the foreground, his face scarred and bandaged, eyes blazing with fury. He roars, "A WOUND ON ONE'S BACK IS A WARRIOR'S SHAME!!!" The words "YOUR SONG" are emblazoned across his chest. In smaller panels a masked figure stares up in shock: "HUHI! WHO ARE YOUI!I! AREN'T YOU ZOROI!" The zombie grips the smaller figure by the collar. "DAMNIT, LET GO OF ME." "WAI!!" the captive cries. The zombie declares, "MY NAME IS JIGORO." A massive sound effect erupts as the captive is hurled through the air: "WHAAAAAAA". A framed caption identifies the warrior: "General Zombie Jigoro of the wind. A legendary stubborn old man. A master fencer who killed 7,000 pirates to protect his family (Died at the age of 54)."

Nico Robin unleashes her powers amid a chaotic melee. Multiple arms slam down with a "SLAM"!! while she calls out "ONZE FLEUR"!! A zombie howls "GUA!!!" Robin's voice rings out, "GET THE BUCKETS READY!!!" A cannon fires with a thunderous "FIRE!!!" and the blast "FRESSSSHHH" engulfs several armored zombies. One zombie shouts "THIS FOR ZOMBIES!!" The remaining zombies reel in confusion: "WHATI!I!"

Sanji and Robin stand amid the ruined stone courtyard. Sanji growls, "EVEN IF YOU GO BACK, YOU WON'T FIND HIM BECAUSE THAT MORON IS ALSO WEARING AN ARMOR. IT SEEMS LIKE HE'S NOT OUT YET." Robin, sweat on her brow, asks "WHAT ABOUT LUFFY...I" A distant figure sprints away while someone bellows "HEEEEEEEEEEY!!! STRAW HAAAAAT!!!" and another voice howls "UOOOOOAAH". Robin warns, "!!!! BUT WE ALSO CAN'T STAND HERE AND WAIT... THE ZOMBIES WILL CATCH UP TO US SOON."

A chained coffin rattles violently as a voice inside screams "DAMN, LET ME OUT!!" A woman with long hair peers at it in alarm. "GYAAAAA AAAAAA" echoes from within. Nearby, a wide-eyed man yells "OPEN THE LID!! LET ME OUT!!" while another figure cries "WHAT'S THAT...I A COFFIN...I" Robin gasps, "...I! THAT VOICE JUST NOW...!!!" and "HUHI! ARE YOU TELLING ME STRAWHAT IS IN THEREI!" In the distance a frantic figure runs while shouting "I WON'T LET YOU GO BACK... HAHAHAHA..." Robin calls after him: "WE'RE CHASING AFTER HIM, NICO ROBIN!!" Sanji bellows "WHAT IS HE DOINGI HEY!! THAT MORON WAS CAUGHTI!"

A massive spider-like General Zombie crashes through the stone hall, its striped limbs smashing walls as debris flies. Small panels show shocked reactions: "IT'S BEYOND THE LEVEL OF A BUG!! IT'S A MONSTER SPIDER!!" and "A HUGE SPIDER...!!!" A frantic voice yells, "DAMN, THE COFFIN...!!!" while another demands, "WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING TO DO WITH HIMI!" The spider looms over two figures below, one in armor and a woman in a dark outfit. A voice reassures, "YOU SHOULD WORRY ABOUT YOURSELVES RIGHT NOW...!!!" and "REST ASSURED THAT WHATEVER WE DO WITH HIM, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE IT AS WELL...!!" From the front and behind, armored warriors close in. A close-up reveals wide eyes as someone declares, "--WITH THIS, YOUR CREW IS FINISHED!" The giant spider laughs "HAHAHA HAHAHA!!" and proclaims, "THE RUMORED SPIDER MONKEY IS ME!!!" A sign labels it "General Zombie Spider Monkey Talleran" as the creature towers with swirling impact effects and the taunt "HEY, HEY!!! MONKEY MONKEY MONKEY!"
