Under a crescent moon, a miniature Buggy sits inside a treasure chest next to Gaimon on the Island of Rare Animals. They are surrounded by various hybrid animals and a large pile of fruit, sharing a peaceful moment together. Inside the Baratie, chaos erupts as customers and cooks scream in terror. Don Krieg stands tall in his heavy dark cloak, surrounded by defeated cooks lying on the floor. Outside, people panic, shouting, "Get on the boat!" and "We've gotta get out of here before we're surrounded!" Patty, recovering on the floor, groans, "What's with all the noise...?" while Zeff lies nearby, also groaning in pain. Patty realizes in horror, "I told you so! This is the real Krieg! And now he's gonna take over our ship!" Gin kneels on the floor, sweating and trembling as he pleads, "Don Krieg... what about your promise..." Luffy calls out to him, "Hey Gin! Are you alright!?" while Sanji and the other cooks watch in suspense. Patty gasps in shock as Don Krieg removes his heavy cloak, revealing his massive golden armor underneath. Krieg coldly declares, "My ship's all worn out, so I've been wanting a new one. Once my business is done with you, I'll have you get off of this ship..." Don Krieg points out toward the sea, where his massive, heavily damaged flagship is anchored. He explains, "Right now, I have around a hundred subordinates on my ship, and they're all starving and critically wounded." The scene shifts to the deck of his ship, where battered, starving pirates lie helpless, weakly groaning, "Wa... ter..." and "Water...". Krieg demands, "So prepare enough water and food, to feed all 100 men of mine. So make it quick...! There are a few who've already starved to death." Patty angrily rejects the demand, shouting, "You're asking us to willingly feed a hundred pirates, knowing that they're going to attack us and steal our ship later!? We refuse!" Krieg glares back, replying, "Refuse...? Seems like we have a little misunderstanding on our hands. I wasn't asking whether or not you'd do it... I'm ordering you. And nobody obeys my orders!" Gin, filled with guilt, apologizes to Sanji, "Sanji... I'm sorry... I... never intended for things to turn out this way..." Carne yells, "Sanji, you bastard! It's because of you that we're in this m..." as Sanji silently begins to walk away. Luffy calls out, "Hey! Where do you think you're going!?" Sanji calmly lights a cigarette and spits, stating his destination: "To the kitchen, in order to prepare enough food for a 100 people." Everyone is stunned. Carne and another cook yell, "What!?", Gin cries, "Sanji!?", and Krieg smirks, "Wise choice..." while Luffy watches quietly. Suddenly, several cooks draw their pistols and point them directly at Sanji, the sound of cocking guns echoing through the room. Carne and the other armed cooks block Sanji's path, shouting, "Who the hell do you think you are, Sanji? Krieg's secret agent or something? We ain't gonna let you take one step in to the kitchen. We've had enough, of your insane and reckless actions!" Sanji spreads his arms wide, completely unfazed, and challenges them: "Fine, stop me if you wish. Go ahead, shoot." Luffy watches, saying, "I know... I know that they're nothing but scum who aren't worth a dime saving..." Sanji continues, "But to me, none of that matters. Thinking about the consequences of feeding a person... it's all such a big hassle."
- Sanji declares his ultimate philosophy as a chef
A cook should freely be able to, feed anyone who's starving! Isn't that ideal!?" Suddenly, Patty blindsides Sanji, landing a powerful punch right to his face that knocks him to the ground. The other cooks yell, "Patty!" as Patty shouts, "Hold him down! Later page summaries: The cooks are blown backward, defeated and bleeding. Luffy and Sanji stare in disbelief, exclaiming, "Guns...!?" and "From all over his body...!" Gin covers his face in despair. Don Krieg laughs triumphantly, boasting, "You damn worms think you can defy me!? I'm the strongest! This body of steel, tougher than anyone else's! This steel arm, more powerful than that of anyone!" Don Krieg continues his arrogant boast, showing off his diamond-encrusted gauntlet: "And this diamond fist that can pulverize anything! My entire body is a finely tuned weapon! I'm the fleet admiral of 50 ships and the commander of 5000 men! I've won every single battle I've been in! There is no other man more worthy of the title 'Don' than I am!" He glares down at the restaurant staff, shouting, "So if I tell you to prepare the food for my men, then you shut up and do it! Nobody goes against Don Krieg!" Suddenly, a massive sack of food is dropped onto the floor with a heavy thud. A calm voice says, "There's enough food here for a hundred people. So hurry up and bring it to your men." Everyone turns in shock to see Zeff standing there. The cooks cry out, "Owner Zeff!" while Don Krieg is stunned, muttering, "Did... did they just say, 'Zeff'!?" The cooks protest, "Sir! How could you give them the food!? Just what's the meaning of this!? Once those pirates on that ship recover, they'll take over our restaurant!" Zeff replies, "That's only if, they still have any fighting spirit left at all..." Zeff looks directly at Krieg and asks, "Isn't that right, defeated warriors of Grand Line?" Luffy gasps, "Grand Line!?" while Gin sweats in silence. The cooks are completely shocked, whispering, "W-what!? Don Krieg defeated!?", "The pirate fleet admiral of 50 ships...!?", "The strongest man of East Blue...!?", and "Even he was utterly defeated by Grand Line!?" Don Krieg stares back at Zeff, sweating as he recognizes him: "You're... 'Red-Leg Zeff!'"
