Luffy laughs happily, shouting, "HEY! YOU'RE ALIVE!" while Nami stares in utter shock, thinking, "HOW COULD ANYONE LIVE THROUGH THAT!?" Meanwhile, the destruction of the building pushes Mayor Boodle past his breaking point. He grinds his teeth in fury, declaring, "THAT TEARS IT! I CAN'T TAKE ANY MORE! I WON'T LOSE A SECOND TOWN TO THOSE SEA RATS!" He brandishes his spear and charges forward, yelling, "THESE PIRATES SHOW UP, THINK THEY CAN DO AS THEY PLEASE... BUT I WON'T LET 'EM WRECK FORTY YEARS OF HARD WORK!!! I'M THE MAYOR!!! I WON'T TAKE THIS SITTING DOWN!

Nami runs after Mayor Boodle and grabs him from behind, trying to hold him back. She pleads, "MAYOR! WAIT, PLEASE!! GETTING YOURSELF KILLED WON'T ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING! YOU'RE BEING RECKLESS!!" Boodle struggles against her grip, shouting, "LET ME GO, GIRLIE! IT'S TIME TO FIGHT!" He turns back with a fierce, tear-streaked face and roars, "I KNOW I'M BEING RECKLESS!!!!" Luffy and Zoro watch him in silence, deeply moved by his resolve.
