Level 4

Viola stands with a serious expression, her thoughts shown in speech bubbles: "I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT THE TONTATTA PRINCESS MANSHERY BEING HELD CAPTIVE..." and "IN ALL MY COMINGS AND GOINGS FROM THE PALACE AS VIOLET." A sidebar reads "SEARCH FOR THE CAPTURED PRINCESS!" Below, she peers into stone corridors, thinking "I HAVEN'T PEEKED INTO THIS PLACE IN A FEW YEARS..." and asks "WHERE IS SHEI" A close-up of her eye appears. In a wide view of Flower Hill, a large man with a topknot exclaims "DAMN, I BET SANJI WOULD GIVE A LEG OR TWO TO HAVE THAT POWER!" while another figure says "YES...SHE HAS CLAIRVOYANCE*. SHE CAN, AT WILL, SEE ACROSS GREAT DISTANCES." A massive bearded man growls "THAT'S CRAZY... SHE CAN LOOK INTO THE PALACE ALL THE WAY FROM HERE!I" and demands "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TWO!I" A note explains clairvoyance as "thousand mile gaze."

On a plateau, Usopp points excitedly: "USOPP! IT IS I!" Kin'emon reacts with surprise. A small winged creature flaps nearby. A large man with horns and a topknot stares in shock. Dialogue continues: "STRANGELY, PITIFUL LOOKING CREATURE..." "WHOA, WHAT'S THAT" "SO YOU KNOW THIS GUY..." "KINE-MON!" The group discusses the climb. One character notes "THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO SAY! EVERYONE AND THEIR AUNTS ARE TRYING TO GET UP HERE!" Another observes "IT APPEARS A TRULY FEARSOME CONTINGENT OF CHARACTERS ARE MAKING THEIR WAY UP TO THIS PLATEAU!" and "MORE IMPORTANTLY, I'M SURPRISED YOU'VE ALREADY MADE IT UP HERE." A figure in a striped outfit says "THAT'S AN 'ESCAPE SPARROW.' I SHALL EXPLAIN MORE LATER." Below, the large man yells "SOON, THEY SHALL ALL ARRIVE HERE AS WELL!" while others react with "WHAT!I" and discuss using a net to climb, referencing a tengu.

Chaos erupts at a towering structure as characters climb ropes and scaffolding. A voice shouts "KING RIKU AND GOD USOPP ARE UP THERE!" Someone yells "THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT FOR, IDIOT!I" and "THIS ROPE IS SUPER HARD TO CLIMB!" A skull-marked speech bubble says "HUHI" Viola appears, declaring "I'VE FOUND HER!" while a man with a long nose protests "DISGRACEFUL! HOW DISRESPECTFUL!" and "I RESOLVE TO CUT OPEN THIS BELLY OF MINE AS RE-COMPENSE!" She demands "WHAT DID YOU FINDI" A close-up shows her shocked face: "IS THAT...MAN-SHERRY!I" as a large "ドン!!" sound effect hits. Kanjuro introduces himself: "FORGIVE ME FOR DOING SO LATE, BUT ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF AS KANJURO, THE SAMURAI!" Others react with "WAIT, WHATI" "W- WAS SUCH AN ACTION UNNECESSARY!I" "STOP IT, KAN-JURO!" and "SHUT IT! YOU BETTER CUT IT OPEN!"

High above the palace grounds, tiny figures tumble through the air as Leo shouts, "LEO!I I FOUND HER!!!" A large speech bubble declares, "PRINCESS MANSHERY IS IN THE PALACE!" Below, a frantic voice calls out, "MISS VIOLA! YOU WERE LOOKING FOR HER FOR OUR SAKEI" A side panel labels the scene "REBECCA AND ROBIN'S SIDE" and notes "CURRENT LOCATION: ABOVE LEVEL 2." In the next tier, Robin stares ahead with a bead of sweat, asking, "DO YOU REMEMBER ITI" Leo, clinging to a large round object, answers, "BEHIND THE CHAPEL...A SMALL ROOM!" Mansherry beams, "I'M SO GLAD! WHERE IN THE PALACEI" The bottom row shows Mansherry reacting with shock, "OF-OF MOTHER!I" as Robin recalls, "IT REMINDS ME OF MISS SCARLET..." A small figure cries, "AHH..." The final panel reveals Mansherry swinging on a rope, exclaiming, "THE TIMEOUT ROOM!I" Rebecca cheers, "YES! THAT'S IT!!!"

Mansherry continues reminiscing with a smile, "OH DEAR, YOU GOT IN TROUBLE AGAINI YOU JUST DON'T LEARN, HUHI" and "WHEN WE USED TO VISIT THE PALACE, WE WOULD OFTEN GET INTO MISCHIEF WITH MISS VIOLA AND GET SCOLDED BY KING RIKU..." She adds, "AND EVERY TIME, MISS SCARLET WOULD..." In the next panels, Mansherry offers, "I BROUGHT SOME FRUIT! I'LL COME WITH YOU GUYS TO APOLOGIZE LATER, BUT FOR NOW..." while a flashback shows young Viola and Mansherry kneeling before a broken plate as a child protests, "THAT'S NOT TRUE, SIS! LEO'S THE ONE WHO BROKE THE PLATES!" but Viola insists, "BUT MISS VIOLA SAID I COULD TOUCH THEM!" Back in the present, a large bubble warns, "THE PALACE IS NOW THE ENEMIES' BASE! BE CAREFUL, LEO!" Leo swings away shouting, "ROGER THAT! I PROMISE YOU, I WILL SAVE THE PRINCESS!" Mansherry replies, "AH... I REMEMBER THE PLACE WELL. THANK YOU!" as the group cheers, "WE ALL ABSOLUTELY LOVED MISS SCARLET!" and "AREN'T YOU HUNGRYI"

Rebecca cries out, "CHICKEN-KUN! LOOK OUT!!" as a massive black form erupts upward. A voice wonders, "HMI THE STRAW HAT CREW IN THE FLESH ARE JUST UNBELIEVABLE..." while another notes, "SOMETHING'S FLOATING UP FROM BELOW." The group ascends rapidly; Rebecca calls, "WE'RE ABOVE LEVEL 3 NOW, REBECCA!" Robin responds, "GOT IT, ROBIN! JUST A LITTLE MORE AND WE'LL BE AT THE FLOWER FIELDS!" as the floating objects are labeled "FLOAT FLOAT." Suddenly a huge explosion erupts with the sound effect "ババババババン!!!" and the attack name "PUNCTURE PARLOR!!" The Straw Hats react in shock: "WHOA AAAAA!" "KYAH!" and "WHA!I"

The blast sends figures flying as Robin screams, "AAA AH!" and "ROBIN!" while a voice yells, "NO! MY YELLOW KABUS..." Another declares, "THIS POWER... CHICKEN-KUN! IT'S THE PAMU-PAMU NO MI!" In the next spread, Robin uses her powers shouting, "DEUX FLEUR!" as Gladius appears and attacks with "PUNCTURE PARLOR!!" Rebecca shouts, "REBECCA! GET THE KEY TO THE FLOWER FIELDS!" while Robin reassures, "I'LL BE FINE!" A narrator notes, "I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT A GROUP TRYING TO MAKE IT TO THE PALACE THIS WAY!" as the group continues their desperate ascent amid the explosions.

A close-up shows Sugar's shocked face as she screams, "AHHHH!!" and "IT GAVE ME THE CHILLS!" In the next panels, a man with a sword sits on rubble near Flower Hill, saying, "AMIDST THE CLOUDS AND FIGHTING, I THOUGHT I SAW SOMETHING THAT LOOKED LIKE A TOY... JUST NOW..." while another figure on a higher perch asks, "ARE YOU LOOKING FOR SOMETHING AGAINI VIOLAI" A large man with a spiked collar reacts with a question mark. Suddenly, a close-up reveals a wide-eyed observer shouting, "THERE SHE IS! SUGAR IS AWAKE! WHAT HAPPENED!I" Reactions flood in: "SHE'S REVIVED! THIS IS BAD NEWS FOR LUFFY AND THE REST OF THEM!" and "SHE WON'T BE BACK ON HER FEET FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 2-3 DAYS...!" A swordsman declares, "WITH MY SURE-KILL FACE JACK-IN-THE-BOX SHE GOT KNOCKED OUT COLD!" Someone retorts, "OI! I TOLD YA, DIDN'T I!I" as another yells, "WHAT!I" The final panel shows a massive shocked face screaming, "WHAAAAAAT!I" while narration notes, "STRAW HAT AND THE OTHERS DON'T KNOW ABOUT HER, DO THEYI"

Sugar screams in terror, "KYAA AAA AAAH!" with the SFX "ビクゥ!!" A sign reads "NEWLY-FORMED ROYAL PLATEAU." People react with shock. A long-nosed man sweats, "...WHAI" while another figure taunts, "PEOPLE WITH LONG NOSES SHOULD JUST GO AND DIE!" and "P- PEOPLE WITH LONG NOSES BETTER NOT STAND NEXT TO ME!" Sugar snaps back, "WHAT!I MISS SUGAR, I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE HUNGRY, SO I BROUGHT YOU SOME SAUSAGES... DON'T BRING ME THOSE LONG THINGS! YOU KNOW I ONLY EAT GRAPES, RIGHT!I WHAT ARE YOU RETARDED!I" She glares through sunglasses and declares, "JUST BECOME A HEADCRACKER DOLL AND GO FIGHT! HIS ENTIRE STRAW HAT CREW... BACK INTO TOYS! AND I'LL START WITH THAT BLOODY, STUPID, LONG-NOSE AND... I MUST MAKE THIS UP TO THE YOUNG MASTER! I'LL TURN EVERYONE IN THIS COUNTRY..." The panel ends with a victim screaming, "GYAAAH!!" as the SFX "CLACK!" sounds.

A wide landscape shows the plateau with SFX "ゴゴゴゴゴ..." and labels "LUFFY'S SIDE" and "THE PLATEAU CONTAINING THE ROYAL PALACE." On Luffy's side, a horse neighs loudly, "NEIGH!" while Cavendish shouts, "RUN, FARUL!" A massive armored figure with a spiked helmet charges forward, clashing violently. The impact sends debris flying with SFX "ドゴォォ!!" and "ガシャァン!!" as Luffy and others are knocked back. The armored warrior swings a massive weapon, creating explosive force and motion lines while characters tumble through the air.

Luffy strains, "GOMU GOMU NO..." with SFX "ビュルルル!!" as he stretches. An ally yells, "THAT BASTARD!" and "HORSEY!" The armored warrior attacks with "JET PISTOL!" landing a crushing blow that sends the horse flying with massive impact SFX. Observers react: "WHAT A JAW! SKULL'S BEEN CRUSHED..." and "FARUL! HANG IN THERE!" while another shouts, "FARUL, YOU HANG IN THERE!!!" The horse lies injured amid rubble as the fight rages on the plateau.

A massive, toothy creature lunges forward with a wide-open maw as a top-hatted figure clings to its back. The creature twists violently, SFX ガチャ... and ムクリ...! marking its sudden movement. In a dramatic close-up the beast roars while the rider shouts "ROUND TABLE"!! A split panel shows an enraged swordsman glaring upward, yelling "WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR DEAL! I JUST PUT A FRIGGIN' HOLE IN HIS STOMACH!" The creature continues its rampage, prompting the swordsman to brandish his blade and declare "YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO FARUL!" before unleashing the technique "BEAUTIFUL BLADE" in a powerful slash.

The top-hatted creature reels from the strike, SFX ガチャ... and ドゴッ...! echoing as it staggers. In the next wide panel Luffy stands between a blonde swordsman and a hooded fighter, all three looking shocked. The creature rises again alongside two similar figures; the hooded man exclaims "ARE THEY IMMORTAL!I" while another voice cries "THESE GUYS!" The three fighters brace themselves as the strange beings loom over them.

Luffy reacts in alarm as something descends from above. Law, still cuffed, mutters "I COULD MAKE SHORT WORK OF THESE GUYS..." and "SHIT... IF ONLY WE HAD THE KEYS TO THESE CUFFS..." A massive impact erupts in the center; a winged figure flaps past while the group is sent flying amid cries of "WHOA!" and "GUAH!" Below, Rebecca runs forward shouting "LU-LU-LU-LUFFY-SENPAI..." and "NICO-YA! WHERE'S MY KEY!I HAND IT OVER, QUICK!" Robin appears, prompting Luffy to yell "ROBIN!" as Law notes "IT'S CHICKEN-HEAD!" and someone groans "OGHH... SHIT, WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I LET MY GUARD DOWN...!!"

A cloaked figure declares "SHE MAY MANAGE TO MAKE IT TO THE ROYAL PALACE, BUT SHE WON'T BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING! I'LL HUNT HER DOWN AND PUT AN END TO HER!" and "THAT LITTLE GIRL, ALL BY HERSELF..." while another notes "REBECCA'S SLIPPED THROUGH MY FINGERS..." Gladius rises dramatically, announcing "THE NAME'S GLADIUS! AND I'M GOING TO START BY DISPOSING OF YOU TRASH!" with a swelling arm. Rebecca shouts "REBECCA'S WAITING THERE WITH THE KEY!" and "HELL YEAH!" as Robin calls out and Luffy yells "QUICKLY, GO! THE SUNFLOWER FIELDS ARE ON LEVEL 4!" and "LUFFY! TRAFFY-KUN! AND SOLDIER-SAN!" while the group charges forward.

In the sunflower fields before the palace at Level 4, a massive warrior with flowing hair and a crown-like helm stands holding a huge sword, his black cape billowing. Rebecca, wide-eyed and tense, stares up at him as motion lines and debris fly. She gulps, "GULP..." The warrior grins fiercely through blood and tears, replying "YOU...I" as Rebecca sweats in shock. Nearby panels show the group reacting amid the flowers. A voice wonders, "HMM... I GUESS YOU'RE RIGHT!" Another says, "I WONDER IF ROBIN AND THE OTHERS ARE ALRIGHT..." Someone declares, "WE'VE MADE IT!" A caption reads, "IN FRONT OF THE PALACE LEVEL 4 SUNFLOWER FIELDS." Rebecca urges, "MISS REBECCA, WE'VE GOT TO GO SAVE PRINCESS MANSHERY!" A reply comes, "I'LL BE FINE! LUCY AND THE OTHERS ARE GONNA BE HERE ANY MINUTE. DO ME A FAVOR AND GET BACK HERE QUICK!" The warrior answers, "YOU'RE GOING TO BE ALONE; IS THAT OKAY!I" "YES." Rebecca is warned, "THIS BATTLEFIELD... MISS REBECCA, PLEASE, BE CAREFUL!" She nods, "GOT IT!" A small figure rustles nearby as Rebecca thinks, "FATHER'S GOTTA BE STANDING SOMEWHERE ON IT..." and notes, "SIGH... SO SOMEONE'S FINALLY SHOWED UP, EHI"
