K.O.

Chapter title "第317話 「K.O.」" appears at the top. In a chaotic open-air laundry area, Nami stands prominently in the foreground holding up a black polka-dot skirt with both hands, smiling confidently. Behind her, the scene erupts into disorder: Luffy tumbles through the air with his straw hat flying off, Sanji struggles with laundry while being splashed, Usopp flails wildly, and Zoro yanks at a large piece of clothing. Robin sits calmly on a rock watching. A large crocodile thrashes in the water nearby, biting into fabric and debris. Clotheslines sag under the weight of hanging sheets and garments, some torn loose and fluttering in the wind. Bubbles, splashes, and scattered laundry fill the foreground as the crew's washing day descends into mayhem.

Color splash page repeating the chapter title "CHAPTER 317 「K.O.」". Nami stands in the foreground with orange hair, holding a bright red garment with golden buttons and smiling at the viewer. The same chaotic laundry scene unfolds behind her in full color: Luffy's straw hat sails through the air, Sanji wrestles with soapy laundry, Zoro pulls at dark fabric, Usopp tumbles, and Robin observes from the side. A vivid orange crocodile snaps at clothing in the water while sheets and garments flap wildly on the lines. Trees, ruins, and a partly cloudy sky form the bright tropical backdrop as the Straw Hats' washing spirals out of control.

Luffy stands tall once more amid explosive impact lines and dramatic speed lines. "STRAW HAT LUFFY STOOD BACK UP!!!" "WHAT AMAZING STAMINA!!" The crowd erupts. Usopp and Chopper stare in shock from the stands, shouting "LUFFY~~~~!!" and "LUFFY...". "HE KEEPS STANDING BACK UP AGAIN AND AGAIN!!" SFX: WOW--- and YEAAAAAAAH. Below, Nami and Zoro watch tensely as Luffy's legs tremble. "HE'S OUT OF BREATH, YET HIS EYE IS STILL SO KEEN... HIS LEGS ARE SHAKING," the narration notes. SFX: ZEH ZEH---. An enraged spectator leans forward, yelling "WHY WON'T YOU JUST STAY DOWN....!!II" while Luffy remains upright. "AS HE KEEPS STANDING BACK UP..."

A towering boxer with an afro and boxing gloves strikes a dramatic pose. "THAT IS THE TRUE SPIRIT OF DAVY BACK FIGHT!" "FOR THE SAKE OF HIS NAKAMA!!" he declares as tears stream down his face. "MY... TEARS ARE POURING OUT. I CAN HARDLY SEE ANYTHING!!" SFX: DON!! WAH WAH WUOOOOO!! The arena erupts with cheers. Usopp, Chopper, and the crowd scream "LUFFY!" repeatedly. Luffy's battered form appears in close-up, mouth open wide. SFX: WAH--- WAH--- and うおおおおおす. The entire audience chants his name in unison.

The arena shakes with deafening cheers. "THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANOTHER MAN WHO COULD SURVIVE AGAINST OUR BOSS TO THIS EXTENT!!" a narration box proclaims. "LUFFY!" echoes from every direction. SFX: わああああ and WUOOOOOOH!! Bellamy's crew reacts in fury from their seats. "BOSS! BOSS! BOSS!" they shout. Bellamy snarls, "IDIOTS!! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU CHEERING FOR THE ENEMY!I" SFX: WAH--- WAH---. In close-up, the boxer readies his gloves. "WATCH CAREFULLY BECAUSE THIS IS THE END!!"

The boxer lunges forward. "NORO NORO BEAM SWORD!!" he yells, swinging a massive glowing blade. SFX: POPON! BIH!! BIH!! WUUH HOI!! The attack slashes through the air. "HOI HOI... IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO RUN FROM ME!!" Luffy is struck hard. SFX: DOUNT...! PULL (GAKON!!) BOOM!! The boxer declares, "TIME FOR THE FINISHER!!" A desperate voice cries, "DAMN! HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH STRENGTH TO RUN... I CAN'T BEAR TO SEE LUFFY LIKE THIS!!" The crowd watches in horror.

Foxy's massive glider, the Foxy Fighter, hurtles forward with a cannonball lodged in its front. The crew shouts, "BOSS IS ON THE OFFENSIVE!! FIRST HE SLOWED DOWN THE CANNONBALL..." as the Noro Noro beam effect lingers. Foxy grins from the cockpit, declaring, "USING THE SPEED OF THE CANNONBALL THIS MEGATON PUNCH WILL K.O. YOU FOR SURE!!" Multiple <SFX> NO---RO </SFX> effects trail behind. The glider closes in on the target ship while narration warns, "SOON THE FOXY FIGHTER WILL CHARGE AND OBLITERATE THE TARGET!!" and "THERE IT IS!! IT'S BOSS' ULTIMATE CANNON-RIDING ATTACK!!"

Foxy laughs "FUEHEHE-HEH... HEH... HEH..." while Luffy, freed from the beam, shouts, "LUFFY!! HE GOT YOU A MOMENT EARLIER THAN THE GLIDER! START RUNNING AS SOON AS YOU ARE FREE!!" Nami watches anxiously. Luffy lands on the deck with <SFX> VROOM!! </SFX> as he regains speed, exclaiming, "...AH I CAN MOVE NOW!" Foxy yells, "IT'S USELESS!! YOU WON'T GET AWAY!!" while the glider barrels forward. A voice notes, "STRAW HAT GOT FREE FROM THE EFFECT OF THE BEAM FIRST!!"

Luffy's massive punch collides head-on with Foxy's glider in a huge impact. <SFX> BYU </SFX> and <SFX> BAM! </SFX> ring out as the glider shatters. Foxy is sent flying backward with a shocked expression, <SFX> GON!! </SFX> exploding around him. Debris and motion lines fill the air while Luffy's fist dominates the center panel.

Luffy yells, "LUFFY! INCOMING!!" as the glider crashes into the ship in a massive explosion. <SFX> BYUN---!! </SFX> <SFX> BAM!! </SFX> and <SFX> BOOOM!! </SFX> shake the deck. Foxy, bloodied and defeated, mutters "FUEHEHE" before being blasted away. The final panel shows the wrecked glider and ship with the huge text "GAME OVER!"

A massive explosion rocks the arena as the crowd erupts. Someone yells "PERFECT HIT!! THERE IS NO WAY HE COULD'VE SURVIVED!!" while another laughs "FUEHE-HEHE!!" A long-haired fighter points desperately and screams "LUFFY!!" and "NOOO~~" as smoke and debris fill the air. SFX shake the page with "YEAH~!!" and "WAH--". In close-up, a battered face grins with "HEH... HEH..." A shocked spectator cries "GOING A LITTLE TOO FAR!!...ISN'T THAT..." The ground trembles with "SHAKE SHAKE" as a tiny figure rises amid clouds. A voice shouts in disbelief "H... HE... HE STOOD BACK UP AGAIN!!! HE'S NOT HUMAN!! IMPOS-SIBLE!!" The small silhouette of Luffy stands firm against the sky while the arena erupts in shock.

The afro-haired fighter staggers with sweat flying, muttering "HEH... HEH..." and "AH!" while wobbling under "KARAN" and "WOBBLE" effects. From afar Luffy declares "GOING TO WIN!" and "I'M..." The opponent roars "MEGATON NINE TAIL....!!!" and vows "I'LL KEEP HITTING UNTIL YOU DROP!!" Luffy retorts "IF YOU WANT TO DIE SO BADLY..." The fighter snaps "BULLSHIT! YOU CAN HARDLY STAND!!" Massive punches land with "PAH!" and "RUSH~~ ~!!!!" as Luffy stretches forward shouting "GOMU GOMU....!!" The arena shakes under the rapid barrage.

Luffy unleashes a furious barrage labeled "GOMU GOMU GATTLING GUN!!!" Fist after fist pummels the opponent in a storm of impacts and "!!!!" SFX. The arena explodes with "WUOOOOOOH!!" "BAM" "BAM" and massive "ザギギギギギギ" lettering. Below, the crowd goes wild, fists raised, shouting "うおおおおおお!!" while the battered fighter groans "MUU....!!!" and "WUUU....!!!" amid the continuing onslaught.

The arena narration declares "THE FIGHTERS HAVE ENTERED A PUMMELING RAGE!!" and "AMAZING!! THE FIGHT IS SO FIERCE EVEN THIS LATE IN THE GAME!!!" Luffy and his opponent trade blows with cries of "POWER!!" "AHHH!! SUCH..." "NOT STOPPING!!" Chopper yells "LUFFY! GO, LUFFY~~~~!! SMASH HIM UP GOOD!!" and "SMASH!!" Spectators marvel "THEY DON'T SEEM TO BE STOPPING ANY TIME SOON!!" and "HOW CAN THIS DYING MAN HAVE SO MUCH STRENGTH LEFT!!!" Foxy's power activates with "NORO NORO..." as the clash intensifies under "THIS IS....!!!!" and "WHOOOOOOOH!!!" The fighters continue their relentless exchange.

A massive spiraling shockwave erupts from the center of the arena as Luffy stands tall amid swirling clouds and debris. SFX: *TON TON TON TON...* BEE~... Four black impact marks flash on the left. The narration box reads <SFX> POWAWAWA.... In the stands, the crowd stares in shock. Nami and a blonde woman gape as someone shouts, "THEY'RE NOT MOVING..." Usopp yells, "WHAT HAPPENEDI" while others react with "HUHI" and exclamation marks. Below on the wooden deck, Luffy and Bellamy lie sprawled on the ground, smoke rising around them.

The crowd erupts in panic. A voice screams, "D... DOWN!! STRAW HAT IS DOWN... NO... WAIT!! THAT'S NOT RIGHT!! STRAW HAT IS STILL MOVING!!" Bellamy grins widely, "HEH... HEH..." Luffy remains crouched as SFX *GUKUN...* and *GOMU GOMU* echo. Nami cries out, "B... BOSS!!" Bellamy snarls, "WHAT!I WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED!!I" and "DAMN~~~~" while a small voice says "YOU~~~~" Bellamy explains, "WHEN... I WAS IN YOUR MIRROR ROOM... IT GOT STUCK ON MY AFRO... STRAW HAT HAD A PIECE OF MIRROR IN HIS HAND!! A MIRROR!!" SFX: *WAAAH HEH HEH*, *KARAN!!*, *GURURURU!!*

Luffy stretches his arm wildly, shouting "GOMU GOMU" as he launches a barrage of punches. Bellamy recoils, yelling "LITTLE~~~~ YOU~~~~" and "SHIT~~~~" while dodging. SFX: *GACHIN GACHIN*, *GUKUN*, *NO---RO*. Bellamy's face twists in confusion as Luffy's fist connects. A massive overhead view shows Luffy spinning Bellamy overhead with the declaration "FLAIL!!!!" SFX: *NO---RO*, *WUUU...*, *AAAAH~*, *OOOOOH!!!!*

Luffy walks away across the deck as Bellamy remains frozen mid-motion. SFX: *HEH... HEH...*, *ZURU... ZURU...* Bellamy's eyes widen in horror. "CAN IT BE...I" he mutters. Close-ups show his face twisting as he counts, "6...", "7...", "IS THIS THE END...!I" The crowd watches tensely. Nami and others stare as a voice counts, "... 8 MORE SECONDS." SFX: *TWIST*, *WAAH!!*, *HMPHI*, *GACHA*

The chaotic crowd erupts as the count begins. "5~~~!!!" someone screams while another laughs "WAHA-HAHA". A panicked voice cries "BOSS~~~!!" amid twisting motion lines and SFX. The scene shifts to a wide view of the arena where the count reaches "3" with the crowd roaring "ひゃほーう!!!". A voice questions "WHATI" while another exclaims "THAT SOUNDS FUN!!" and taunts "WHAT ARE YOU STARING ATI COUNT WITH ME!!". The count drops to "2" as a massive structure looms and a tiny figure stands on a ledge. SFX scream "WAAAAAAAH!!!". Close-ups show a spiky-haired man and Luffy's intense glare as the count hits "1".

Luffy is hurled high into the air above the massive arena tower. The crowd panics and cheers: "ALL RIGHT!!", "WAIT. THAT'S OUR BOSS FLYING!!", and "YEAH~~~~!!!!!". A massive impact SFX "ドーン" explodes across the page. The announcer declares "THE WINNER IS... LUFFY!!!". Luffy soars triumphantly with arms raised as the crowd below reacts in shock and excitement. SFX "BUBEEH!!" punctuates the moment.
