The chapter title page displays in bold lettering: Chapter 442: "DEMON SEA ADVENTURE". Below it, a dramatic splash illustration shows Luffy clinging to a massive, whale-like sea creature amid stormy waves and debris under a starry sky. Luffy wears his straw hat and patterned outfit, gripping a staff-like object as the creature thrashes. A caption at the bottom reads: ENEL'S GREAT SPACE MISSON VOL. 12: "DIVINE JUDGEMENT TOWARDS THE INSOLENT ONE".

In their new ship, they head for the seas! The Thousand Sunny sails across open water as Luffy yells from the deck, "I GOT OOOOOONE ~!!!" with "YEA YEA" and "KU KU" sound effects around him. On the ship's deck, Usopp and another crew member haul in a large shark with nets and poles while shouting "PUT IT IN! PUT IT IN!!" Inside the dining area, Nami sits at a table holding a cup as a shark bursts through the window with a loud "SPLOOSH". Sanji, seated on the couch, remarks, "HEY! IS THIS ROOM GOOD OR WHATI" while a voice notes, "...THERE'S ANOTHER ONE. A SHARK, HUHI" Sanji adds, "THIS ROOM'S GOOD, SURE, BUT A SHARKI THOSE MORONS!!"

Luffy, grinning widely, declares, "YOOO!!" and "LET'S GO SEE IT!! LET'S LOOK AT IT IN THE FISH TANK!!" as the crew reacts to the shark. Nami smiles slightly while a large fish tank shatters with "ばんっ!!" and "SPLOOSH" effects. Brook and Franky appear, with Brook saying, "THINK OF WHAT CAN LIVE TOGETHER, IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!" and Franky yelling "GYAAAAAAAH!!!" as the shark causes chaos. Sanji complains, "ALL THE FISH YOU CAUGHT UP TO NOW HAVE DISAPPEARED, YOU SEEI" while another voice notes the fish are gone. Luffy and others react with hunger and frustration: "NM AHOOO ~!!! I'M SO HUNGRY NOW!", "TEMPURA WOULD BE TASTY, TOO.", "HOW ABOUT SUSHI...I WE CAN MAKE IT INTO YUZARASHI... PUTTING IT IN SPICY VINEGARED MISO WOULD BE GOOD.", "HOLD UP, YOU AMATEUR... THIS IS FRESH FISH WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE.", and "GODDAMMIT!! WE'RE HAVING THAT BASTARD FOR DINNER!! BARBECUE THIS STUPID SHARK!!" A note explains Yuzarashi preparation. The ship continues its voyage with the Thousand Sunny shown sailing onward.

Nami relaxes in a bath, sighing "HAAA... WHAT A NICE BATH!" while commenting on the rocking ship. A panel shows the ship exterior with "GACHA..." as someone says, "WAIT UNTIL TONIGHT!!!" and "WELL, LET'S EAT IT AS A SNACK." Inside, a spacious bathroom is described: "IT'S THE BEST!" with a heart, and narration notes, "A HUGE BATHTUB ROCKED BY THE WAVES." Sanji stands in a doorway looking thoughtful with "HMMI" as a sign reads "Medical Room". Chopper lies happily on a medical bed with musical notes, while a porthole view shows something floating in the water and a voice calls, "Hey!!" Another panel warns, "Something's floating in the water!"

The Straw Hats spot a floating barrel marked with a black banner reading "SEA GODS HOUZEN" and the note "former treasure." Luffy leans forward excitedly, "WHAT IS IT!I" Nami examines it and says, "A BARREL!I LOOK!! IT'S GOT 'TREASURE' WRITTEN ON IT!!!" The crew debates its origin: "TREASURE!I" "SOMETHING DROPPED BY A 'TREASURE SHIP'!I" "COULD IT BE!I" "PROBABLY ALCOHOL OR RESERVES." "DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT." On deck they continue, "WHAT THE... THEN PICKING IT UP WAS POINTLESS." "SO THEY MADE AN OFFERING TO THE GUARDIAN DEITIES OF THE SEA. 'HOUZEN' MEANS 'TO THE GODS.'" "THAT'S A 'FLOATING BARREL.' SOMEONE WAS PRAYING FOR A SAFE VOYAGE." "IT SAYS 'SEA GODS HOUZEN' ON IT, RIGHTI" "HOW CAN WE TELL WITHOUT LOOKING!I" Someone suggests, "HEY, IT'S PROBABLY ALCOHOL. LET'S DRINK IT!"

The crew argues over the barrel. "WE SHOULD TASTE IT!! ALRIGHT EVERYONE, A TOAST!!" "BUT ALCOHOL MASSAGED BY THE WAVES IS ESPECIALLY DELICIOUS." "I DON'T PRAY TO NO GODS." "IT'S ALRIGHT IF WE PRAY BEFORE WE DRINK IT, RIGHTI" "IDIOT! YOU'LL BE CURSED!!" Zoro muses, "A CERTAIN SOMEBODY SENT 'GOD' FLYING BACK IN THE LAND OF THE SKY..." They pry it open with cries of "HEY, GOOOOD!!! GIMME SOME SNAAACKS!!!" "OPEN IT ALREADY, HURRY UP!" "PUTTING A NEW OFFERING IN AND SENDING IT OFF IS THE CUSTOMARY THING TO DO." "WE'LL STILL HAVE AN EMPTY BARREL ONCE WE'VE DRANK IT." The lid bursts off with a massive "GURURURURUA" and "SOMETHING WENT FLYING!!!" Luffy stares in shock as the barrel flies open.

A bright red flare explodes in the sky with a loud "PAAN!!!" The crew reacts in alarm: "RED LIGHT...!I" "WHAT'S THAT!!!I" "...!I" Robin wonders, "... NO PROBLEM IF IT'S JUST A PRANK, BUT..." Someone suggests, "HA HA HA, A CURSE OF THE SEA GODSI" The flare is identified as "A 'FLARE.'" "THE ALCOHOL FLEW UP, LIT UP, THEN DISAPPEARED." "...!!! WHAT!I WHAT'S GOING ON!I" Tension rises as the mysterious light fades over the sea.

Chopper yells from the crow's nest, "CAN YOU SEE ANYONE ANYWHERE!!!I" The crew realizes, "COULD IT BE... IS IT SOME KIND OF TRAP TRIGGERED BY OPENING THE BARREL!I" "SOMEONE MAY NOW BE TARGETING THIS SHIP." "WE JUST ALERTED SOMEBODY TO OUR PRESENCE HERE!I" Nami checks the weather and shouts, "WE'RE FLEEING SOUTH-SOUTHEAST!!" "EVERYONE TO YOUR POSTS!!" "I CAN'T SEE ANYONE, BUT..." "THIS BAROMETRIC PRESSURE..." Luffy calls out, "I CAN'T SEE IT, BUT IF SHE SAYS IT'S COMING, IT'S COMING FAST." "IN FIVE MINUTES!!!" "A 'RAGING STORM' IS ON THE WAY!!!" "BEAR TO TWO O'CLOCK, NAMI!!!" The ship races ahead as dark clouds gather.

The Thousand Sunny battles massive waves under a stormy sky. Franky grips the wheel and yells, "OHHH!! THINGS ARE COMING OUT!!! UOOOOOH!! IT'S SO COOL, I LOVE IT. LET'S DO IIIIT!!!" Nami shouts in alarm, "HEY!!...!!! NO GOOD, IT'S ALL HEADWIND!!!" Usopp cheers wildly as the crew raises the sails. Franky declares, "THAT'S RIGHT! EVERYONE, TAKE UP THE SAILS!! THE 'PADDLES' ARE COMING OUT!!" The ship transforms as Franky activates the mechanisms: "'PADDLE SHIP' SUNNY-GO!!! CHAA-ARGE!!!" "COLA ENGINE!" "ALRIGHT, RELEASE!!" "SOLDIER DOCK SYSTEM"!!" Panels show the paddle wheels deploying with loud SFX: GAKON! ZUBABABABA!! WHIRRRR CHANNEL "0"!! GACHUNK!! The vessel surges forward through the raging sea.

The Sunny emerges from the storm into calmer but ominous waters. A crew member notes, "WE'RE THROUGH..." Another replies, "THAT'S GOOD, BUT... WHAT'S WITH THIS SEAI" The ship sails on as the crew discusses their location. Franky warns, "THAT'S RIGHT. DON'T RELAX JUST YET... NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. THIS AREA IS... THAT SEA WHERE MONSTERS APPEAR!!" Luffy exclaims, "OH!I WE'VE ALREADY ARRIVED AT MERMAID ISLAND!I" Sanji adds, "MY HEART'S NOT READY YET...!!!" Robin questions, "... COULD IT BE WE'VE... ENTERED THAT PART OF THE SEA ALREADY..." Zoro observes, "IT SHOULDN'T BE NIGHT YET... THE FOG'S SO THICK, IT'S EERILY DARK." A narration box states: "THE STRANGE SEA WHERE ALMOST EVERYTHING DISAPPEARS, SHROUDED IN MYSTERY." Large bubbles label the area: "TRIANGLE." "FLORIAN"

On deck, the crew reacts to eerie surroundings. Someone says, "THERE'RE LIVING SKELETONS HERE." Usopp panics, "DON'T SCREW WITH MEEEEEEE~!!! WHY'S EVERYONE ACTING LIKE THEY KNEW!I I NEVER HEARD ABOUT THIIIIIS~~~~!!" Luffy laughs excitedly at a grotesque monster, "MONSTERS SHOW UP HERE. EH... MO... MONS... MON-NUH-NUH... MONS..." Robin reassures, "THAT'S JUST YOUR IMAGINATION. DON'T SCARE HIM LIKE THAT." Usopp cries, "PREPARATIONS!! I'D FORTIFY MYSELF WITH STUFF THAT WARDS OFF EVIL SPIRITS!!" Zoro stays calm while discussing ghost ships and vanishing vessels. Brook's voice echoes, "YOHO HOHO~" with musical notes as he appears playing, "WHAT THE... MUSIC...I" SFX include <U HI HI HI> <GACHI GACHI GACHI> <GYAAAAA> <GO GO GO GO GO...>

A massive, tattered ship bursts from the mist and collides violently with the Sunny. Brook's voice rings out repeatedly, "YOHO HOHO~ ♪" The impact shakes the vessels with huge SFX: <DOON!!!> <GYAAAAAAA> <GO GO GO GO GO GO GO...> A large narration bubble exclaims, "IT CAME OUUUUT ~~~!!!!" The skeletal ship looms over the Thousand Sunny as debris flies and the sea churns beneath them.

The Straw Hats stare in horror at a massive ghost ship looming through the fog as a chilling voice wails "GHOST SHIIIIP!!!" accompanied by the massive SFX "ギャアアアアア!!!" and "ギシ...". Crew members clutch their heads while someone shouts "EVEN IF THE GHOST SPEAKS, PAY HIM NO HEED!!! IF YOU ANSWER, YOU'LL BE DRAGGED INTO THE SEA!!!" and "DON'T LISTEN!! COVER YOUR EARS, YOU'LL BE CURSED!!!". A sailor warns of "A SAILOR'S DEITY OF THE DAMNED!!!" as eerie singing drifts over: "YOHO HOHO ~". Nami asks "WHAT IS THIS SONG...!I" while Robin notes "THE EVIL SPIRIT IS LOOKING FOR A TRAVELING COMPANION!!!". Close-ups show Nami, Robin, and Zoro listening tensely; Zoro mutters "SOMETHING'S THERE" and declares "IF IT'S AN ENEMY, I'LL JUST CUT HIM DOWN" as the song continues "YO~HO HO~ HO~" and "...IN THIS SHIP... IS THERE SOMEONE RIDING IN IT...I".

Luffy's face twists in shock as a shadowy figure on the ghost ship sings "...GO AND DELIVER..." with musical notes and SFX "ゴゴゴゴゴ". The skeleton raises a cup and sings "BINKS' BREW..." while the massive onomatopoeia "ドン!!" and "ゴク ゴク ゴク" echo. Crew members react with terror: "!!!I" and "WHAT IS THIS SONG...!I". The ghost ship rocks violently amid waves and lightning as the haunting melody "ゴゴゴゴゴ" and "ゴクゴク" continues, the skeleton drinking deeply from the barrel.

The Going Merry pitches wildly in the storm while Luffy yells "I TOLD YOU I WAS FINE BY MYSELF" and Nami snaps "WHY ARE WE GOING!I WE SHOULD TURN BACK!!" and "NO WAY, IF YOU DO SOMETHING STUPID AND OUR SHIP GETS CURSED, THEN WHATI". The crew spots the moving skeleton on the ghost ship; Luffy exclaims "NO WAY, THIS IS THE 'TREASURE SHIP,' YOU SAW IT, DIDN'T YOU!I THE MOVING SKELETON!" and "THAT'S THE GUARDIAN OF THE TREASURE, LET'S SEARCH FOR HIM FIRST!!". Nami retorts "YOU WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO THE 'TREASURE SHIP,' WEREN'T YOU, NAMII" while Sanji flirts "DON'T WORRY!! I'LL PROTECT YOU, NAMI-SAAAN!" and Franky adds "LUCK OF THE DRAW, HUH...". The skeleton chants "BEGONE FOUL SPIRITS, BEGONE FOUL SPIRITS, REST IN PEACE, LUFFYYYYY~" as the crew reacts with shock "GYAAA...!!!" and "!!!" amid crashing waves and lightning.

The tall skeleton in a top hat and suit strikes a dramatic pose and bows, apologizing "PARDON MY EARLIER BEHAVIOR!! I MET EYES WITH YOU BEFORE, YET COULD GIVE NO GREETING!!!" while greeting "HOW DO YOU DO!! YOHO~ HOHO!!!". The crew stares in disbelief: "LOOK, HE'S TALKING!! THE SKELETON WITH AN AFRO IS TALKING!!", "WHAT A SURPRISE!! IT'S BEEN DECADES, PERHAPS", and "SO SCARY!!!". Nami blushes as the skeleton compliments her "WHAT A LOVELY YOUNG WOMAN!! OVER THERE!! NNN-BEAUUUUUTIFUUUL!!!" and exclaims "MY, MY!!" and "I'VE NEVER SET EYES ON SUCH A BEAUTY!!" while dancing and singing "YOHOHO HOHO!!". A sign reads "The Gentleman Skeleton: BROOK". Brook continues "'CAUSE SKELETONS DON'T HAVE EYES!!" as the Straw Hats react with surprise and confusion.

He declares, "LIKE I'D SHOW YOU!!!" and adds, "PERHAPS YOU'D BE SO KIND AS TO SHOW ME YOUR PANTIESI" A long-haired woman snaps back, "THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK BEFORE THAT ONE!!!" while a straw-hatted boy grins beside her. The skeleton retorts with laughter, "UHA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!" as the woman yells, "SHUT UP!!!" and the boy chimes in about feeling it down to his bones. The skeleton continues, "JUST DOWN TO MY SKELETON!!!" The scene shifts as the straw-hatted boy questions the skeleton, "WHAT HAPPENED ON THIS SHIPI WHAT THE HECK ARE YOUI WHY ARE YOU HEREI" The long-haired woman demands, "TELL US EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON IN THESE WATERS!!!" The skeleton replies, "FIRST!! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT BONES, SO HOW CAN YOU WALK AND TALKI" and "DON'T ANSWER, WHATEVER!!!" while the skeleton admits, "INDEED, I DO POOP."

The skeletal figure in a top hat stands tall amid the ruined deck of a massive ship and calmly states, "YES, VERY WELL THEN." He points forward and commands, "BEFORE THAT, BECOME MY NAKAMA!!!" The straw-hatted boy, long-haired woman, and suited man react with shock, the suited man shouting, "UOOOH, HEYY!!!" as large impact letters "F" and "E" dominate the foreground. Debris and broken railings litter the foreground while the towering ruined structure looms behind them.
