The Weekly Shonen Jump cover for issue 17 features Monkey D. Luffy prominently in the foreground, wearing a red floral kimono with a purple sword at his side, grinning widely while holding the hilt. Behind him are large expressive faces including a fierce samurai-like man with gritted teeth, a close-up of an eye, and other exaggerated expressions. Prominent Japanese text reads "ワノ国編第一幕 絶好調巻頭カラー" alongside "ONE PIECE" in large green letters. Additional promotional elements include Boruto characters, cherry blossom petals, and the issue number 17 with date 4/8.

In Wano Country between Kuri and Udon, a map marks Kibi, Ringo, Hakumai, and Oni as Big Mom searches for food. Tama rides a large creature through rocky terrain shouting "OSHIRUKO TOO, O-TAMAI IS THAT SOI YOU LIKE OSHIRUKO TOO, O-TAMAI" while laughing "MAAAMAMAMA! HAHAHAHA!". She exclaims "MM! I THOUGHT MY CHEEKS WERE GOING TO FALL OFF FOR REAL!". Below, Big Mom laughs wildly "HAAAAAHAHAHA! REALLYI I'M SO HUNGRY~ I CAN'T WAIT TO EAT OSHIRUKO!" as she reaches for food, with Chopper and others nearby. A girl reacts with delight "RIIIIIIGHTI! AND THE GLIMMERING PEARLS OF MOCHI! JUST LIKE THE EYEBALLS OF A FROG!" while holding her cheeks, saying the red bean sweetness fills her cheeks. Chopper sweats in panic "WE'LL ACTUALLY END UP PUTTING LUFFY IN DANGER! WHAT HAPPENS IF SHE TURNS BACK INTO BIG MOM WHEN SHE FINDS OUT THERE ISN'T ANYI!" as Tama looks on excitedly.

The pleasures have all been defeated, too! They lost again! A map of Udon Prisoner's Mine labels the regions Kibi, Flower, Ringo, Kuri, Hakumai, and Oni. Below, Luffy stands with his arm extended after deflecting an attack. Someone exclaims, "RayleighI" Another voice wonders, "Straw Hat... what in the world..." A large armored figure with a sword remarks, "Hmm... that's not it! Rayleigh deflected that elephant without even touching it." Luffy, wide-eyed and sweating, clutches his face and declares, "Was crazy high-level! The Haki he first showed me... If I could just use that..." An older man with long hair gestures and says, "Picture yourself wearing invisible armor."

Queen, wearing a bib labeled "QUEEN," eats voraciously with chopsticks while declaring, "Time and numbers! Those are the only things that matter in a battle!" He laughs, "Muahahaha! Well done, Straw Hat!" and taunts, "If you let me do it, he'd be executed in a flash! Come on, Lord Queen!" Luffy shouts back, "You idiot! Oshiruko is like oxygen for me!" Queen retorts, "How many bowls of oshiruko have you had alreadyI!" while the crowd cheers wildly. Luffy pumps his fist, yelling, "Alright! Next!" Queen holds up a massive gourd and boasts, "I've brought a ton with me! And nobody else gets any! It's my favorite ♡" Sound effects include "CHEW CHEW CHEW," "MUNCH MUNCH," and "わああああああ."

A map labels "Wano Country Ringo Bandit Bridge" with regions Kibi, Flower, Kuri, Udon, Hakumai, and Oni. A hooded warrior monk named Gyukimaru swings a massive club, shouting, "DO NOT LIE!" and clashing with a sword. Narration describes an unparalleled swordsman who settled all his matches with a single flash of his blade. A figure in a kimono stands near a cart as Gyukimaru is identified: "Bandit Warrior Monk Gyukimaru." The opponent yells, "Impossible! Ryuhima the samurai lived and died hundreds of years ago!" Gyukimaru replies, "The soul of someone else was in his body, but, well... How could you have met RyuhimaI!" He attacks with "バババ" and "グググ" effects, declaring, "A fool like you could never know of the value of the Meitou Shusui!"

The flashback continues as a bearded man reacts, "GoldI!" Narration states, "Around the world as the Golden Country. Wano Country was known a very long time ago." Gyukimaru clashes swords with dramatic "CRACK" and impact effects. He recounts, "He showed the world that there are samurai in Wano! It is even said that he cut down a dragon that appeared in the skies above the capital. Pirates craved it! Nobles wanted to rule over it! And he showed his legendary strength by bringing them all down!" The bearded man replies, "Too bad none of that really matters to me. I see. Thanks for the heads up!" Gyukimaru roars with "ギィィィン!!" effects, "This is but one of the legends of Ryuhima the swordsman!" The bearded man demands, "I'm going to have you give Shusui back to me! Somehow things don't feel right if I don't have all three of my swords." Narration adds that after his death, Ryuhima was enshrined along with his Meitou Shusui as a sword god and treasure of the people.

Zoro glares sharply as a voice challenges him: "I AM ASKING YOU IF YOU ARE THE SORT OF COWARDLY BRAT THAT WOULD LUST AFTER SUCH A THING!" Another voice retorts, "SHUSUI IS A BLACK BLADE! IT GREW TO ITS CURRENT STATE ACROSS RYUMA'S MANY BATTLES!" followed by "HMPH! SO YOU JUST WANT IT ALL TO YOURSELFI!" Zoro reacts with shock, "GREWI!" and "!!I". Below, a woman and child flee in panic across a snowy bridge, screaming "HELP! SOMEONE!" and "KYAAAH!". The hooded swordsman presses Zoro, "OI, WHEN YOU SAY BLACK BLADE, YOU DON'T MEAN..." Zoro answers, "COME TO THINK OF IT, THAT WAS ACTUALLY BUGGING ME...". The hooded figure lunges with a massive scythe, shouting "WIDE OPEN!" as Zoro grunts "NGGH OOH!" under the heavy strike.

The woman and child continue to cry out desperately, "HELP US! OUR LIVES ARE IN DANGER!" and "SOMEONE!". The hooded fighter mocks, "DISTRACTIONS ARE WHERE VICTORIES ARE BORN! I AM AIMING ONLY FOR OPENINGS IN YOUR DEFENSE!" while yelling "HEY! CAN YOU NOT HIT ME WHEN I'M CLEARLY DISTRACTEDI!". The woman pleads directly to Zoro, "MR. SWORDSMAN! PLEASE SAVE US!" and "ARE YOU KIDDING MEI! I CAN'T TELL IF YOU TWO ARE BEING SERIOUS OR NOT!". The hooded figure laughs wildly, "AHA HAHA HAHA HA!" and "AH! A SAMURAI! OI! HELP US!". Zoro narrows his eyes, "HMI" and notes, "LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE NOT JOKING. BLOOD... DRIP DRIP" as blood trails visibly on the ground.

The woman gasps "HAAAH..." with wide eyes as the hooded figure spins his weapon, "FYU FYU!", sending the child flying with a scream "KYAAH!". The attacker strikes fiercely, "NNG GH!", while Zoro watches with "!!I". In close combat the hooded man grapples the woman, who struggles and cries out. Zoro reacts with surprise, "HMI!" as the woman pleads again, "WAIT A MINUTE!" amid heavy impact lines and motion effects.

Zoro shouts "GET A CLUE, DAMN IT!" and "OI!" as the hooded figure yells "UWAGH!" and "WIDE OPEN!". The attacker taunts, "YES, I'LL GET TO IT! HANG ON! YOU FOOL! OUR DUEL IS—". Zoro recognizes him, "YOU! YOU'RE ZOROJURO, THE CRIMINAL! WHY DO YOU COME TO THE AID OF THIS WOMAN AND CHILDI" and demands of the woman, "WOMAN! WHY DO YOU PROTECT THIS CHILDI!". The wanted poster reads "FLOWER CAPITAL WANTED MAN KAMAZO THE KILLER". Kamazo laughs "FAFAFA-FAFA!" and "FAFAFA!" while striking, with background text showing "LOOKS LIKE WE GOT ANOTHER WEIRDO...".

In a rocky, snow-dusted landscape, a tall cloaked figure with wild hair declares, "LAUGHING FOOLI KYAHHAHA!" while another hooded shape states, "I HAVE COME TO CLAIM HER LIFE!" A third voice adds, "I AM HERE ONLY FOR THAT LAUGHING FOOL OF A GIRL!" The scene shifts to close-ups of a heavily bandaged man with a fierce grin who shouts, "YOU CALL THE SHOGUN BY NAMEI! WHO IN THE WORLD ARE YOUI! FAFAFA!" Nearby, a dark-haired woman holding a small child reacts in shock as narration reveals, "BUT IT SEEMS YOU'RE ACTUALLY AN ASSASSIN OF OROCHI'S THAT'S MASQUERADING AS A KILLER! KAMAZO THE KILLER! YOU CUT DOWN MANY A PERSON IN THE CAPITAL." The bandaged man continues his manic laughter. The view widens to a misty valley with a wooden bridge and distant figures. The bandaged samurai says, "I'D NOT SAY NO TO SOME FOOD AND SAKE. OF COURSE. YOU'VE GOT A DEAL." He then adds, "WELL, I'M NOT ABOUT TO LET A WOMAN AND CHILD GET KILLED IN FRONT OF ME, BUT..." The woman and child cry out, "SAMURAI! PLEASE, SAVE US!" The samurai replies, "I WILL THANK YOU IN WHATEVER WAY I CAN."

The fight erupts as the bandaged Gyukimaru clashes with the assassin Kamazo. Gyukimaru growls, "KILLIN' SOMEONE WITH A BOSS USUALLY MEANS TROUBLE DOWN THE ROAD, BUT..." Kamazo retorts with a wide grin, "ALL WHO STAND IN MY WAY! IT MATTERS NOT! I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO KILL." Blades flash violently. Gyukimaru yells, "DO NOT WORRY! YOU WILL BE THE ONE TO DIE HERE!" Massive impact lines and motion effects fill the panels as the two warriors exchange fierce sword strikes on the bridge, their robes and bandages whipping in the air. Kamazo presses the attack while Gyukimaru counters with powerful swings, the clash sending debris flying.

The duel intensifies. Kamazo thinks, "THIS GUY'S PRETTY STRONG..." as Gyukimaru smirks, "SO YOU'VE DECIDED TO BECOME SERIOUS, EHI" Rapid blade exchanges produce sharp sound effects "ギャキン!!!" and "キン!! ギイン!!" The woman and child watch in terror from the side. Gyukimaru's strikes create massive shockwaves and dust clouds across the bridge. Kamazo is pushed back amid swirling smoke and flying debris. Background figures react with wide eyes as the fierce sword fight continues, every clash marked by bold impact lettering and motion lines.

Gyukimaru lands a devastating blow. Kamazo is sent flying backward with a massive impact "ズッ" as Gyukimaru shouts, "WIDE OPEN!" The woman covers her mouth in shock while the child stares. Kamazo tumbles through the air, robes billowing, sword still in hand. Blood and debris scatter as the powerful strike connects. The final panels show Gyukimaru standing over the fallen assassin amid swirling dust and motion effects, the bridge trembling from the force of the attack.

Zoro clashes fiercely with a bandaged, hooded opponent on a bridge. The swordsman declares, "THREE... SWORDSI!" as he draws his blades. The foe growls, "SANTORYU..." while gripping a massive weapon. Zoro bites down hard, "CHOMP," and resolves, "I'LL HAVE TO MAKE DO WITH JUST ONE, THEN..." He unleashes a powerful slash. The opponent recoils in shock, blood and sweat flying, as Zoro roars, "ONI GIRI!" A massive impact strikes, labeled "A BLOW OF RIGHTEOUSNESS!" The hooded figure staggers, muttering, "I CAN'T GET IT OUT!" while Zoro's attack sends debris flying amid dramatic speed lines and impact effects.
