My intelligence tells me that princess Nefertari Vivi, Chopper: Even if she can't stop the swarm of 700,000 rebels, Chopper: There's a good chance she'll cause the rebels to hesitate... Toto: We can't afford to let those two meet...! Nami: Many of our Billions have already infiltrated the rebel forces. Nami: The fact that I haven't received any updates from them yet means that Vivi and the Straw-Eat pirates have yet to take decisive action...! Nami: We have to ensure it stays that way by keeping Vivi away from the rebles! Miss All Sunday: Miss Miss All Sunday. Sanji: Yes? Koza: I don't care if you have to use a dender-mushi.

Luffy: They cannot be allowed to enter Katorea no matter what!
