Give the Signal for a Counterattack

A masked figure with goggles and a striped headband reacts in shock, sweat flying as large sound effects explode around him. Below, chaos erupts near a massive ruined building as a small winged creature flies past. Speech bubbles show frantic thoughts: "BUT THOSE SHIPWRIGHTS ARE INCREDIBLE...", "WHA-WHA-WHA-WHAT SHOULD I DOI I'M GETTING LEFT BEHIND!", "I MISSED GETTING ON THE KING BULL...". In the next panel the masked man continues thinking, "EITHER WAY...I'M OUT OF THE GROUP... I SHOULD ESCAPE...!!" while distant figures tumble amid debris and the sound "わああああああ" echoes.

Narration states "ROBIN OFFERED HERSELF TO PROTECT US, SO THIS IS SERIOUS!!" and "I'VE GOTTA FIGHT NO MATTER WHAT!!!" while Usopp shouts "NO, NO, NO WAY, NO WAY, I CAN'T JUST RUN!! I'M NOT A MAN, USOPP!! YOU WENT AS FAR AS TO HIDE YOUR IDENTITY TO COME WITH THEM!!". The masked man, now revealed in close-up, declares "THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO GET TO EVERYONE... WITH THE 'DISGUISE-MYSELF-AS-A-GOVERNMENT-OFFICIAL AND-PASS-THROUGH-THE-GOVERNMENT-MOB EPIC STRATEGY'!!" and "OKAY...!!" as water splashes. Below, the same masked figure stares in horror at a massive water spout labeled "MIZUSAME: CUTTING OFF A CASTLE'S WATER SUPPLY" while voices cry "WO—!! WHAT THEI WHAT'S THIS MIZUSAME!I", "ENEMY RAID!! ENEMY RAID—!!", and "HUH!I".

The masked man screams "I AM MORTIFIED...!!!" as a giant figure rises from the water with a massive splash, prompting cries of "GYA—!!! THE GIANT WOKE UP—!!!". Close-ups show the masked man’s shocked face and a long-nosed figure yelling "E...!!! ELBAF...!I...!...!I WHO THE HELL ARE YOU......DID YOU REALLY COME FROM THE WARRIOR VILLAGE OF ELBAF!I". Other voices lament "WE FAILED IN OUR 50TH YEAR... WE'RE A DISGRACE TO ELBAF...!!!", "WE'RE SORRY, BOSSES... WE'RE SORRY... UOOO...!!!" amid the towering castle backdrop.

In a flashback over the ruined cityscape, a giant warrior screams in anguish, "わあああああああ" as an explosion erupts, "ドゴォン!!" A voice recounts, "I GUESS IT WOULDN'T HURT TO TELL SOMEONE LIKE YOU, BUT..." The giant continues, "...AND I RAMPAGED AROUND THE WORLD. WE BECAME PIRATES 100 YEARS AGO." Another giant lies injured, crying out, "KAASHII..." and "わあああああ" The story unfolds: "AND I..." "ONLY THE WINNER OF THE LIFE OR DEATH WARRIOR'S DUEL WAS EXPECTED TO RETURN HOME. THE TWO BOSSES BEGAN TO DUEL. ONE DAY, HOWEVER, ON SOME ISLAND, ALTHOUGH WE WAITED MANY YEARS, NEITHER OF THEM CAME BACK. THE GROUP DISSOLVED AND ALL OF OUR SHIPMATES DECIDED TO RETURN TO OUR HOMELAND." Later, the giant explains their capture: "BUT ON THE WAY, WE WERE CAPTURED BY THE MARINES, AND THEY FORCED INFORMATION OUT OF US. THAT'S WHEN THEY SURPRISED US WITH THE TRUTH! WENT OUT TO SEA TO GET THEM... 50 YEARS HAD PASSED AND IT WAS STRANGE, SO... KAASHII AND I..."

A small creature reacts with shock, "EHHII" and "II" as narration continues, "...THAT WAS ABOUT 50 YEARS AGO..." The giant explains, "THEY TOLD US THAT THOSE TWO BOSSES ARE BEING HELD IN A HUGE GOVERNMENT PRISON...!!!" The giants accept the deal: "THEY'LL RELEASE THE BOSSES AND LET US RETURN TO ELBAF TOGETHER...!!!" "IN OTHER WORDS, IF WE GUARD THE GATE OF ENIES LOBBY FOR 100 YEARS, IF KAASHII AND I WORK FOR THE GOVERNMENT FOR 100 YEARS... BUT THE GOVERNMENT GAVE US THIS CONDITION...!!!" "A GIANT'S LIFESPAN IS 300 YEARS... 100 YEARS IS NOTHING, SO WE ACCEPTED THE CONDITION AND WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING FOR THE PAST 50 YEARS." In the present, one giant roars in despair before the destroyed gate, "DAMNIT! NOW THE BOSSES WILL ROT IN JAIL FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES...!!! UOOO...!!!" "I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD TURN OUT THIS WAY...!!! BUT TODAY...!!! THE GATE WAS DESTROYED BY PIRATES...!!!"

The giant protests, "NO NO, NOT THAT KIND OF FUNNY! WHAT'S FUNNY ABOUT IT!! IF YOU LAUGH AT OUR PRIDE... I MEANT IT'S STRANGE!!" Another figure yells, "HEY, HEY, WAIT A MINUTE!! THAT STORY'S FUNNY!!" as a massive "UOOOOO OOO...!!!" echoes. The giant declares, "THOSE ELBAF WARRIORS YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, DORRY AND BROGY, HAVE BEEN ON THAT ISLAND FOR 100 YEARS, AND CONTINUE TO FIGHT IN THAT ENDLESS DUEL!!! BECAUSE WHILE WE WERE SAILING HERE, WE MET THOSE TWO!!" In a close-up, the giant insists, "I KNOW ALL OF IT BECAUSE I REALLY MET THEM!! THE WAY THEY LAUGH!I THEIR WEAPONS!I TECHNIQUES!I IF YOU WANT MORE PROOF, I'LL GIVE YOU AS MUCH AS YOU WANT! THEM BEING CAPTURED 50 YEARS AGO WAS ALL A BIG LIE!!!" A small figure questions, "...EHI...NO WAY, IT CAN'T BE... YOU... HOW DO YOU KNOW THEIR NAMESI"

Panic spreads as someone shouts, "AND EVEN THE 10,000 'HOUBANTAI' WERE OVER-TAKEN...!!! THE 'HOUBANTAI' FAILED IN THEIR DUTY....!!I YOU'RE SAYING THEY'VE ESCAPED THE CENTER OF THE MAIN ISLAND AND ARE HEADING THIS WAY!!!I" A map labels "ENIES LOBBY MAIN ISLAND COURTHOUSE". An official in ornate robes commands, "THE STRENGTH OF THE KING BULLS IS MORE POWERFUL THAN WE EXPECTED...!!! WE... WE HAVE NO EXCUSES. THERE'S ONE MORE, BUT IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT...!!! YOU BUFFOONS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GUARDS IN CHARGE OF THIS GOVERNMENT ENTRYWAY, YOU KNOW!! HAVE SOME SHAME!!!" Guards react in horror: "...!! YOU CAN'T MEAN...!!! YOU WANT TO RELEASE THEM IN THE CITY!!!I" "...WE'RE DOWN TO OUR LAST RESORT...!!! CALL THOSE GUYS!!!" "ALREADY LACK CREDIBILITY!!!" "QUIET, YOU FOOLS!! YOUR WORDS" as a massive "どんっ!!" impact sounds and "ビリビリ!!" rips through the air. One figure affirms, "THAT'S RIGHT...!!!"

A stern authority figure in a tall hat and ornate robes glares forward as subordinates react in panic. "YOU..." he begins, then roars, "NOW!! SEND THEM OUT!!" A close-up shows his furious face: "PRECISE-LY!!! THE PUNISHERS OF JUSTICE ISLAND!!!" He follows with "I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANYMORE USELESS INFORMATION!!!" and "JEEZ, SHUT UP ALREADY!!!" Orders fly: "RELEASE THE JUST 'II JURYMEN'!!!" and "THE TIME FOR JUDGEMENT HAS COME!!!" A soldier protests, "ARE YOU REALLY SERIOUS!!I THE CITY WILL BE DECIMATED!!!" while another begs, "WAI...!! WAIT A MINUTE, PLEASE!!" The authority figure commands, "CALL THEM!!!" Background voices add, "WE ALSO LOST SIGHT OF STRAW HAT. NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT, YOUR HONOR."

On a rooftop overlooking Enies Lobby's main island, a Marine aims a massive mortar. "LOCK ON. AIM CAREFULLY." The weapon fires with a deafening "BA HIHI!!!" and massive explosion "ボカーン!!!" A striped creature, Gomorrah, is struck amid smoke and debris. Someone yells, "IT'S A MORTAR! DODGE IT, GOMORRAH!!!" Marines scatter as Gomorrah reels. "BA RU RU!!" one Marine cries while another shouts, "WE'RE CHANGING OUR ROUTE!!! THEY'RE AMBUSHING US WITH ALL SORTS OF THINGS!!" A close-up shows a determined face: "THIS CENTRAL ROAD IS BAD NEWS.....!!"

A striped creature with goggles reacts with repeated "PURU PURU" sounds while a top-hatted figure clutches his head, "MUGU...!!" Nearby, a small creature is grabbed violently, "BAG YAA!!!" A girl with long hair answers a tiny vibrating Den Den Mushi: "IT'S US!!" and "WHO IS THIS!I" The voice replies, "HELLOI" She identifies it: "THE MINI DEN-DEN MUSHI!!" An older woman appears, prompting reactions: "WELL, THERE WAS SOMETHING IMPORTANT I FORGOT..." "WHAT'S WRONGII" "THANK GOODNESS! IT SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE ALL STILL ALIVE. NGA GA GA!!" "IT'S OLD LADY KOKORO." Onlookers ask, "WHAT'S SHE WANTI"

A blond man studies a map of Enies Lobby. "I WAS GOING TO ASK ABOUT IT. THAT'S RIGHT..." The map labels "TOWER OF JUSTICE" and "COURT-HOUSE," with a note: "PALLIE'S MAP SHOWS THAT THERE'S NO ROAD..." A massive splash panel reveals the towering Courthouse with two flanking towers. "LOOK AT THE COURTHOUSE!! THERE ARE TWO TOWERS, ONE ON EITHER SIDE, RIGHTI" "YES, THERE ARE!" Discussion continues: "THERE'S A LEVER IN THE UPPER LEVEL OF EACH TOWER... IF WE PULL THOSE," interrupted by frantic Den Den Mushi calls, "HELLO—!I CAN YOU HEAR ME, PIRATE LADY—!!I" "WA!! WHATI CHIMNEY!" "AND THEN CHIMNEY..." "BACK IN THE DAY, I CAME WITH TOM TO FIX THE BRIDGE-!!!" "GRANNY, HOW'D YOU KNOW SOMETHING LIKE THAT!I" "IT'S THE STUPID GOVERNMENT THAT FORGOT THIS FAVOR!!! WHY ARE YOU ANGRY AT ME...!!"

Onlookers spot activity on the courthouse roof. "IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S SOME KIND OF FIGHT GOING ON!!" one shouts. Another reports, "AFTER THAT, I SAW SOME STONES ON THE ROOF CRUMBLE." A third exclaims, "REALLY!I LUFFY DID!I" and "I SAW HIM CLIMB TO THE TOP OF THE COURTHOUSE ROOF!!" Someone yells, "HEY!! THAT RUBBER PIRATE GUY..." A woman in a dark dress and hat confirms, "ON THE ROOF!I...GOT IT, THANKS!" Nearby stands a tall, horned figure in black. Below, Sanji, Usopp, and allies gather. Sanji declares, "NOW WE KNOW WHERE TO GO...!!!" Usopp adds, "SO SHE SAID!!" and "SO WE KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON OVER THERE." Franky advises, "ONE MORE THING, YOUNG LADY! KEEP THE DEN-DEN MUSHI ON." The group rallies: "ALRIGHT!!!" "WE'LL SPLIT INTO TWO PARTS AND LOWER THE DRAWBRIDGE!!!" "HEAD FOR THE COURTHOUSE ROOF AND MEET UP WITH STRAW HAT!!" "OKAY!! YOU GUYS GO FIRST."

A striped, long-necked beast named Gomorrah charges forward with a rider. "BA RU RU RUA!!!" it roars amid "BA HI HI!!" and "!!!!" A massive explosion erupts with the huge SFX "ゴオオオオ!!" The rider shouts, "IT'S UP TO YOU, GOMORRAH!!! UNTIL WE REACH THE COURTHOUSE!!!" The beast smashes through debris and structures in a cloud of smoke and impact lines as allies cling on. A massive chained weapon swings wildly in the chaos, sending figures flying.

Gomorrah rampages with "OO!!" and "GOMO RRAH!!!" A dark silhouette taunts, "...SO YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD GET BY EASILYI YOU PIECES OF TRASH..." Marines react in panic: "WHO ARE THOSE GUYS!!!" "SHIT...!!!" Orders ring out: "SURROUND AND ARREST ALL OF THEM!!!" "THE PIRATES DON'T HAVE A LEG TO STAND ON ANYMORE!!!" "THEY DID IT!! THEY TOOK DOWN THE SECOND ONE—!!!" The beast and its crew smash through the Marine line amid heavy impacts and debris.

Enies Lobby erupts in alarm. Orders blare: "ALL PERSONNEL CONvene AND CLOSE OFF D-BLOCK COMPLETELY!!!" "THE KING BULL RIDDEN BY THE PIRATES HAS BEEN STOPPED!!!" "IN THE CENTER OF THE SOUTHEAST D-BLOCK, CALLING ALL ENIES LOBBY PERSONNEL!!" "THEY'RE AIMING THEIR MORTARS." "THEY'RE COMING FROM THE FRONT, TOO!!!" A terrified face screams, "THIS IS AWFUL!! THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THEM!!" Sanji notes, "THE GUARDS WE OUTRAN BEFORE ARE CATCHING UP!!" "THIS IS BAD!" From above, the view shows the massive beast charging through the city blocks. "IF WE GET SURROUNDED HERE... WE'LL BE DONE FOR!!!" with huge SFX "ドドド" and impact effects.

Inside the Tower of Justice at Enies Lobby, a chained woman sits on the floor and mutters, "Oh, I'm not sulking or anything, just 'cause my guys aren't coming to save me, okI" A bearded man wrapped in chains beside her replies, "They don't usually come to save you, you know... You should be happy... You've got really good friends." A sign reads "-TOWER OF JUSTICE- ENIES LOBBY". In the main island front gate area, Oimo and Kaashii suddenly awaken with a roar. Marines panic as the giants stand, one shouting "OIMO AND KAASHII WOKE UP!!!" and "THEY DID IT!!" while the giants bellow "OH HH!!" and unleash massive attacks. Marines yell "NOW, KILL THOSE THREE, GIANTS!!!" and "HURRY UP AND TRAMPLE THESE GUYS!!!" One marine cries "HAA...HAA... WE DON'T HAVE ANY STRENGTH LEFT TO FIGHT THEM...!!!" Another gasps "HOW DID THIS HAPPEN.....!!!" and "SO THIS IS THE END...!!!" as the giants charge forward.

Chaos erupts as massive impact lines and debris fill the scene. A giant fist swings while characters react in shock. One voice shouts "WHAT THE-!I THOSE TWO HAVE TURNED AGAINST US!!!" Another yells "OO-WOA AAA!!!" A figure with a top hat and goggles exclaims "WHOA!!" while Franky appears amid the fray. Voices call out "BEFORE WE CELEBRATE OUR BOSSES' SAFETY... BEFORE WE MOURN ALL THOSE LOST YEARS..." "LET'S DO IT TOGETHER!!!" "KING OF SNIPERS!!!" "WE WILL RAMPAGE!!!" "UNTIL THIS ANGER IS SATISFIED........!!" A large figure bellows "HURRY TO WHERE OUR COMRADES ARE!!!" and "FEAR NOT!!! NOW'S THE TIME TO GIVE THE SIGNAL FOR A COUNTERATTACK!!!" On the right, someone roars "HOW DARE YOU DECEIVE US!!!I" as fighters clash and bodies fly.
