The One Piece logo dominates the top of the page with the chapter title below it: CHAPTER 983: "THUNDER". A massive splash illustration fills the rest of the page. Big Mom towers in the foreground with an enormous open-mouthed grin, her hands planted on the ground as tiny figures scatter around her feet. To the left, a group of characters in dramatic poses reacts with shock; one points forward while others stare in alarm. A tall ship with a tattered sail and a black top-hat Jolly Roger is visible behind them. At the bottom of the page, narration reads: GANG BEGE'S "OH MY FAMILY!!!" VOL. 29: "HEY! IT'S THE OLD MAN FROM THE HARBOR!"

Page One's allies react in alarm: "HUH!I" "I KNOW! I KNOW, PAY-PAY!!" "HEY! SIS...!!!" Ulti stands atop her massive transformed brother, now a towering Spinosaurus labeled "DRAGON DRAGON FRUIT ANCIENT MODEL: SPINOSAURUS" and "PAGE ONE". She herself has transformed into a Pachycephalosaurus, labeled "DRAGON DRAGON FRUIT ANCIENT MODEL: PACHYCEPHALOSAURUS" and "ULTI". A voice cries "PAGE ONE-SAMA!I WHY DID YOU TWO TRANSFORM!I" Ulti glares down and growls, "IT'S 'CAUSE THIS GUY'S THE REAL DEAL. I ACKNOWLEDGE HIS SKILL!!!" "SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTHS..."

Ulti's dinosaur form rears back, roaring "THAT HUUUURT!!" as she senses something: "THEN WHOSE HAKI AM I SENSING!I" Allies panic, shouting "NO WAY! YOU DEFINITELY SPLIT THAT GUY'S HEAD OPEN! HE'S DEAD!" Page One charges forward in his Spinosaurus form. Ulti declares, "I'VE GOTTA GET IT TOGETHER. I'M IN AN EMPEROR'S CASTLE!!" while a masked ally thinks "I THINK I UNDERESTIMATED YOU."

A massive dinosaur-like creature lunges forward with jaws wide open. A terrified voice cries "SIS!" as another screams "KYAAA!" The beast is struck hard, its head snapping back from a powerful blow. "Awsh!!" rings out as the dinosaur reels. In a blur of motion, a spiky-haired fighter in a dark outfit delivers a rapid series of punches.

Luffy looks surprised, muttering "HUHI" and "!I" as Ulti charges. "ULTI METEOR..." she yells, swinging her massive fist. Luffy braces himself, thinking "NOT HAPPENING!
