Blurb: “We’re in the middle of the qualifiers here at the colosseum!!”
Gats: “This has been Corrida Colosseum’s Battle Royale!!”
“At this time, there are three who’ve earned the right to challenge the Donquixote Family”
“The winner of A-block comes from the Blackbeard Pirate Crew”
“It’s the “Champion,” Jesus Burgess!!!”
“B-block gave us the captain of the Barto Club crew”
“ “The Cannibal,” Bartolomeo!!!”
“And then there’s C-block!!”
“It’s our gladiator, Lucy!!!”
“Only one more fighter will move on to the finals!!”
“But wait!! The ring has been heavily damaged”
“So we regret to inform you…”
Crowd: “Hurry up and fix it”
Gats: “That that starting time of D-block will have to be delayed by 15 minutes!!!”
Page 3:
Gats: “Hang in there! D-block is coming!!”
Someone: “Get the replacement ring”
Cav: “Strawhat!!”
“You’ve no longer anywhere to run!!”
Luffy: “Cabbage!!”
Cav: “Durandal!!”
Luffy: “Dahh!!!”
Page 4:
Someone: “Cavendish is going wild again”
(bottom bubble): “That bastard!!”
Guy: “What’s up with that?”
“He keeps calling that guy “Strawhat”…”
“Strawhat… isn’t that, uh, you know, that guy?”
“At the paramount war… the pirate who couldn’t save his own brother”
“Dahahaha if he just went there to fail, well, even I could have done that!!”
“Dobehho!!!… Wh…what’s happening!!?”
“Stop it!! You bastard!! I’m a noble from the country of Doelena!!!”
“Behaaa!! Cut it out!! You’re crushing me!!”
Barto: “You… just who do you think you were mocking so flippantly…!?”
Page 5:
Barto: “…Listen up. Strawhat Luffy-senpai will…”
“One way or another, he’ll stand and bear the weight of this generation!!!”
“He’s the future King of the Pirates!!!”
Guy (lower right bubble): “Eeep”
Barto: “I… I saw it. Two years ago, but also before that…”
Cav: “Let go”
Luffy: “As if!!”
Barto: “In the East Blue! In Loguetown!!”
“On that legendary execution platform where the Pirate King Roger met his end”
“Facing certain death, Luffy-senpai shouted out…!!!”
“I’m the man…!!!!”
“Who’ll be King of the Pirates!!!!”
Barto: “And at that instant!! A bolt of lightning dropped from the heavens!!”
“But it didn’t kill that man…!!! I witnessed nothing less than a miracle!!!”
Page 6:
“Since that time, I’ve read all the articles about the Strawhat Crew…!!”
“ “Alabasta,” “Enies Lobby,” “Impel Down”!!”
“And the fateful “Marineford”!!!”
“It was all so thrilling!! So much so that I, an underworld boss with 150 towns under my control back in my homeland at my peak…”
“Looked up to Luffy-senpai as an idol and role model”
“And at long last decided to set out to sea myself…!!!”
Flashback peon: “I’ve got your enemy’s pinky here, boss!”
Flashback barto: “Just toss it away”
“…Ok now. Just try saying something again. Try acting like you’re worth something.”
“Going on and talking about Luffy-senpai as if you’re better than him…!!”
Guy: “Nyoo!! Nyo!”
“Hol on…”
Barto: “You’re nothing compared to him, you stupid bastard!!!
Guy: “Dyahhhh!!!”
Someone: “Bartolomeo’s going wild, too!!!”
Cav: “Be a good boy and release my blade!!!”
Luffy: “Why do we have to fight now? I’m tired!!”
! Page 7:
Cav: “Kuu”
Someone: “Oi, somebody stop them!!!”
“We shouldn’t get close. They’re dangerous!”
Barto: “Th… that’s right, we shouldn’t get too close. Even now, how could I, after all this time? I’m so nervous… no way I’m going over there…”
Sfx: ba-dum
ba-dum
“That scar under his eye… it’s the real thing. It’s so freaking cool. Huh? I can’t see through all these tears”
“That rotten Cabbage asshole!! I’d tear you limb from limb to protect him, but…”
“O… oi, you”
“Cabi… Cabechi!!...”
“It’s no good… I can’t!!!”
Sai: “Hey, Strawhat!!”
Page 8:
Sai: Listen up!! My grandfather has got something he wants to say to you!!!”
Boo: “Hang in there, gramps!!”
Luffy: “Ehh!!?”
“Give it a rest! I won already, didn’t I?”
DC: “Haa… haa…”
“No, that’s not it…”
“I can no longer resent Garp… Now I must express my deepest gratitude”
“Please… accept my thanks for what you have done…!!!”
Sfx: bow
whack!!
All: “Uwahhh”
Page 9:
Luffy: “Owahhh”
Cav: “Ah!! Hold it right there!!”
DC: “Please don’t go… grandson of Garp…”
Barto: “Uwahh!! He passed by me! We were so close!! Um, excuse me… wait…”
Cav: “Oi!!! You can’t run away from a fight!!”
Barto: “Wh…wh… what do I do what do I do. I want to talk to him, but what would I say!?”
DC: “As thanks for restoring my head…”
“I hereby pledge to you…”
“The Happou Navy of my grandchildren…!!!”
Luffy: “Enough of this already”
“Why can’t I just find somewhere to relax!!”
Rebecca: “This way, Lucy”
Sfx: grab!
Luffy: “Hmm!?”
Page 10:
Luffy: “Ah, it’s you…! Uh, you’re…”
Rebecca: “It’s Rebecca. You’ve sure got a lot of people after you! Come this way”
Luffy: “Ah, thanks a lot”
BB: “Zehahaha come to think of it, the same could be said of Shiliew, right?”
Jesus: “But we’re talking about Aokiji here”
“No way we can trust him!!”
“Ah, hold on Captain”
“It’s Strawhat”
BB: “!?”
“Hmmmmm!?”
“….!!”
“He’s there, with you right now?”
“Strawhat”
Page 11:
BB: “Can you really afford to be here right now? It’s about to begin”
“Your brother’s execution, that is… zehahaha!!”
Luffy: “So it’s you, Blackbeard!!”
BB: “That’s right. It’s been a while… zehahaha”
“I heard you entered the tournament, “Lucy””
“But the Mera Mera no Mi…”
“Is going to my Burgess, here!!”
“I’ll be so happy… it’ll be as if Ace had really joined my crew…!!”
“You know, he turned down that offer way back when”
Luffy: “…!! Ace’s power…”
“I’ll make sure it goes to anyone except you guys!!!”
Jesus: “Wiihahahaha”
Rebecca: “Someone you know? That pirate just now?”
Luffy: “You could say that”
“If nothing else, I won’t let them win this thing…!!”
Page 12:
Luffy: “ ‘Scuse me lady, can I have another sample!?”
Lady: “You just had one! Are you going to buy something or not!?”
Rebecca: “Oh come on!”
“I’m sorry, ma’am!”
“Which would you like, Lucy?”
Luffy: “Eh!? You’re gonna buy one for me!?”
Lady: “Who’s this, Rebecca? A friend of yours?”
“Thanks for your business”
Rebecca: “Sorry, I didn’t have much money…!!”
Luffy: “No, no, thanks for treating me, Rebecca!!”
“But where are we?”
Rebecca: “This is where the gladiators of our colosseum are lodged…”
“Some call it the “prison dorms””
Page 13:
Rebecca: “Guest participants don’t come here”
“So you should be fine until you have to go out again”
Luffy: “Really? That’s great!”
Bottom right bubble: “That was an amazing match. You really surprised me with your strength, Lucy!”
Bottom right text: “Rebecca: Corrida Colosseum Fulltime Gladiator”
Back to middle left panels, Luffy: “Yeah, well…”
“But how is this Colosseum lunchbox so tasty!?
“And aren’t you hungry!?”
Flashback R: “Mommy…”
“I’m hungry…”
Rebecca: “I’m… fine. Don’t worry about me…!!”
Luffy: “Hmm? You’re acting like one of those Samurai”
Page 14:
Sfx: poke!!
Guy: “Alright!! I got him!!”
“If you’re gonna do it, do it now, Rebecca!!”
Luffy: “Wah”
Rebecca: “What’s going on!?”
Guy: “That’s why you brought him here, yeah?”
Luffy: “Eh?? What the hell!? Rebecca!!”
“Oi I’m gonna spill my food!!”
Page 15:
Guy: “Gyahhh”
“Gah!!”
“Argh”
Rebecca: “Hiyahhh!!”
Sfx: fwip!!
Luffy sfx: munch munch
Page 16:
Rebecca: “Ah”
“Haa, haa…”
Luffy: “Hmm”
Rebecca: “…Kuhh…!!!”
Page 17:
Guy: “He took down… Rebecca”
“How could he be faster than her…!?”
Rebecca: “…!! Do as you must with me…”
“I’ll accept my punishment…!!”
Luffy: “Why would I punish…”
“Someone who bought me food…!?”
Rebecca: “Because I tried to kill you!!”
Luffy: “It’s fine. I’m not dead. And besides, you weren’t really trying to…”
Prisoners: “Yowch… haa… to be forgiven that easily…”
“But all we’ve seen here is the true gap between your strengths… Rebecca”
“If only she could have taken out one top contender in advance…”
“Her odds would be that much better”
Page 18:
Luffy: “Eh… mummies?
Prisoners: “We’re not mummies!!!”
“We’re the gladiator prisoners”
“Rebecca, too… we’re made to keep fighting”
“Until we meet our deaths in the ring, as a show for the audience…!!”
“It’s because we’ve each opposed the Donquixote Family at some point”
“The King has proclaimed that should a gladiator reach 1000 wins, he would walk free, but…”
“Even the most skilled fighter is bound to croak after 100 or so deathmatches”
“And if we’re caught plotting to escape, they’ve promised to shoot every one of us”
“So we’re left with no choice…!!”
“Up until 10 years ago… before Doflamingo became king…”
“These gladiatorial fights weren’t deathmatches at all…”
“Under his rule, this land has seen unparalleled splendor, but also the worst kind of darkness”
Page 19:
Rebecca: “I decided that today…”
“I would win this tournament, at any cost”
“And obtain the power of the Mera Mera no Mi…!! So I can take revenge on Doflamingo!!”
“Today…!! In order to free us, the forces led by Soldier-san…”
“Will wage war against Doflamingo…!!!”
“He intends to sacrifice his own life… in order to bring it all down!!”
One leg: “Don’t you worry!”
“Soldier-san is brave!!”
“And he’s always by your side!!”
Rebecca: “But I’ll take charge and do it before he has to!!!”
“I’m sick of always being protected!!!”
“This time, I’m going to protect Soldier-san!!!”
Blurb: “This country’s darkness… her tears say it all…!!”
Looks like Rebecca has a quite saddening past.
