Adventure in the Land of Mystery

In a bustling town, smoke billows as a fire breaks out. A horned warrior with long braided hair shouts, "HEY, DO YOU SMELL THAT AROMAI!" while another figure yells, "GET SOME SPRING WATER AND PUT IT OUT!!" A third voice cries, "THERE'S A FIRE!!" A large impact effect labeled "GIANT CONFUSION!!" erupts. In the next scene, characters look up at a massive burning tree. One warns, "IF THE FLAMES SPREAD TO YOGDRASIL, THEN THE COUNTRY'S DONE FOR!!" Another asks, "IS IT COMING FROM THE FORESTI!" A voice replies, "WE NEED TO REPORT THIS TO THE GREAT SUN GOD..." Below, two figures tumble from the sky onto giant striped insects. One exclaims, "THEY DON'T JUST FALL OUTTA THE SKY!!" while another wonders, "WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED TO THESE STINGERMOL...I" A large sound effect "ばん!!" marks the crash. Someone mutters, "SOMETHING'S WRONG WITH THIS..."

Inuarashi roars, "DON'T BE STUPID!! WHAT COULD HURT THAT ENORMOUS RABBITI!" while gesturing wildly. A horned ally responds, "PEOPLE IN THE FOREST REPORTED THAT THE TREMORS WE FELT EARLIER... WERE CAUSED WHEN THE MIGHTY EAR GOD COLLAPSED...!!" The scene shifts to Big Steinn Castle, where a sign reads "BIG STEINN CASTLE--". Explosions and cries of "GYAAAH!!" and "IT'S STILL ALIVE!!" fill the air with motion lines and sound effects "バン!!" and "バン!!". In the lower panels, a ship crashes into a stone plaza. Nami stands amid smoke and debris, asking, "MORNING, NAMI!! LAST THING I KNEW WE WERE STILL ON THE GIANTS' SHIP!!" A large "ばん!" impact sounds. Nami shouts in panic, "WHAT IS WITH THIS HUGE BEE THINGI!"

Nami screams desperately, "LUFFY!! ZORO!! SANJI-KUN!! I'LL EVEN TAKE USOPP!! WAAH! SOMEBODY SAVE ME!!" while clutching her head. Smaller panels show her exploring a grand castle corridor, thinking, "IT'S SOME KIND OF CASTLE...I" and reacting with "AM I DREAMINGI! WHERE IS THIS PLACEI!" A voice calls, "NAMI!!" and she replies, "HUH...I! USOPP'S VOICE!!" She stumbles as the floor shakes with "ど!!" and "CLATTER!" effects, crying, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE FLOOR...I IT'S ALL BUMPY." Usopp's voice shouts "YEOWCH!" as Nami falls and exclaims in confusion, "WHAT'S UP WITH MEI! I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER CHANGING!!"

Nami stares in wide-eyed terror, sweat flying as she shouts in alarm. Beside her, a massive fluffy bear-like creature trembles with a startled "ひた!!". In the next instant the bear swells into a gigantic spiky monster; Usopp is blasted backward by the impact, yelling "SHOCK!! SHREEEEI! IT'S HUGE!!" as debris explodes around them. From a lower ledge Nami calls desperately, "USOPP!! WHERE ARE YOUI!" Usopp answers from afar, "OVER HERE!!" A tiny horned monster bounces nearby, stammering "GYAAAH!! WAIT, I DIDN'T MEAN TO STARTLE YOU!" while its heart pounds "BA-DUMP BA-DUMP BA-DUMP" and it growls "GRRRR".

A colossal crowned monster looms over Nami, roaring "WHAT ARE YOU DOING THEREI! ANOTHER MONSTERI!" while she screams "SAVE MEEEE!!". Usopp swings in on a rope and yells "LEAVE IT TO ME!!" as he commands "ZEUS! EXTEND!". Nami, still dangling, cries "UGH!! I'VE GOT MY OWN PROBLEMS!! WHAT IS THIS! A MONSTER MANORI!" The black thundercloud Zeus fires a blast with a loud "ドズッ" while the bear monster growls "HRMMM!!" and Usopp shouts "CRAP!! I'M GONNA FALL!!" A furious bird-like creature appears, screeching "SHREEEE!!".

Explosions rip through the air as Usopp yells "JUST ZAP IT!!" The crowned monster's jaws snap shut with "SHREEE!! KYAAH!!" and "バリバリ!!". A massive bird monster lunges with "SHREEE!!" while Usopp is sent flying, crying "WHOOP!!" Below, the crowned monster bellows "WHAAAA AAATTTI!" as it smashes through structures with "BREOOOOO WWNNN!" and the bird shrieks "MREOW!!" Usopp plummets, shouting "WAH!!" amid the chaos.

Nami and Usopp glare at the crowned monster; Nami snaps "I'VE GOT A BAD FEELING!!" and Usopp echoes "DITTO!!" The monster growls while Usopp recalls, "I REMEMBER US DRINKING ON THE GIANTS' SHIP... NEXT THING I KNOW, I'M HERE WITH YOU!!" Nami shouts "HEY, USOPP!! DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACEI" as the monster roars "MREOWN!!" They both tumble downward with "WAAAAH!!" In the final panels Nami realizes, "WAIT, THAT BOOZE! IT'S CALLED ABSINTHE: 'THE GREEN FAIRY'!! DIDN'T HE SAY IT COULD CAUSE HALLUCINATIONSI!"

High above the blocky cityscape, the crew reaches a dead end. "WE'RE SO HIGH UP!!" "AH MAN!!" "IT'S A DEAD END!!" A small figure clings desperately to the wall. Below, Nami and Usopp face a massive, snarling cat-like beast. "IT'S PROBABLY JUST AN ILLUSION..." Usopp stammers. The monster roars "NYAAAH!" as Nami questions, "THERE'S A CHANCE THIS IS A HALLUCINATION RIGHT, NAMII" Usopp replies, "THEN... I MIGHT BE SEEING A CAT MONSTER, BUT..." Suddenly the beast lunges. "TURN!!" someone yells. "USOPP!!" Nami screams in terror as Usopp is struck hard, sent flying with a loud "BUFOH!!" amid swirling impact lines and debris.

The giant cat monster smashes through the tower in an explosion of bricks and blocks. "AAAAH!!" "NGYAAA AAAAH!!" it howls as rubble flies everywhere. Usopp plummets through the air amid the collapsing structure, screaming "K'AAAAH!!" Below, Nami and Luffy look up in shock. "USO--!!" Nami cries out as debris rains down around them.

Nami and Usopp lie battered amid skulls and rubble while the enormous cat monster looms overhead, growling "GRRRRRRRRRRR!!" "GYAAAAA AAAAAH!!" it roars. "WE'RE GONNA DIE!!" Nami shouts. "SNAP OUT OF IT, USOPP!!" she pleads. The beast declares, "IT SUDDENLY TURNED INTO A LION!! WE'RE DOOMED!!" Usopp suddenly revives with a heart-filled cry, "NAMI-SAAAN!!" The monster charges again with "RWOAAA AARRR!!" as Nami gasps in alarm.

The giant cat monster rampages as multiple fighters strike. Nami screams "K'AAAAH!!" while Usopp is hurled through the air. A powerful armored figure appears, declaring, "I SENTENCE YOU TO DEATH FOR MAKING MY BELOVED CRY." Attacks erupt in sequence: "ÉPAULE...!!" "IFRIT JAMBE..." "GEAR FOURTH..." "GUM-GUM..." "ELEPHANT...!!" "THREE SWORD STYLE..." "KALASUTRA: GREAT DRAGON...!!" The monster counters with "TWISTER!! WHIP!! STRIKE!!" and a massive "BROAA AARRR!!" "RWOAAA AARRR!!" echoing as the beast is struck from multiple angles amid flying debris and impact effects.

A massive roar echoes as a giant creature bellows "BRAAHHH!" Nearby, Nami clutches her head in panic, shouting "I WAS SO SCARED WHEN USOPP DIED, SANJI-KUN!" Sanji leaps dramatically, crying "NAMI-SAN!! I WAS REALLY WORRIED!!" while a fluffy creature laughs "SHI SHI SHI!! THAT RABBIT WE GRILLED UP EARLIER SURE WAS TASTY!!" Another voice wonders "I WONDER HOW THIS GUY WILL TASTE" as a horned beast looms. Someone questions "DID IT JUST TURN INTO A CATI" A fallen armored figure coughs "KOFF! I'M STILL ALIVE!! AND YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR THAT HUMAN SHIELD STUNT..." while muttering "NOT AGAIN..." In the lower panels, the crew reacts to their strange surroundings. A furious local yells "HOW ARE YOU GUYS TAKING THIS PLACE IN STRIDEI!" and "WHERE THE HELL ARE WE ANYWAYI!" as text declares "INTO THE UNKNOWN!! COVER AND COLOR SPREAD UPON RETURN!!" Sanji warns "IF YOU'RE GOING AFTER FOOD, DON'T FORGET THAT BEE BATTALION AND THEIR HIVE!! IT'D BE A SHAME TO WASTE THEM SINCE THEY'RE SO NUTRITIOUS." An unidentified crewmate stresses "WE NEED TO ESTABLISH THE CREW'S SAFETY. LET'S PRIORITIZE FINDING THE SEA AND OUR SHIP..." Luffy grins widely from under his straw hat, declaring "SOUNDS LIKE THERE MIGHT BE EVEN BIGGER ONES AROUND... IF THEY LOOK GOOD, I'LL GET US SOME!!" while impact effects "ドン!!" and "ビビビ" punctuate the scene. The page ends with the "ONE PIECE CH.1127 /END. BREAK NEXT WEEK" label and a tiny Chopper peeking from the corner.
