“Enter, combatants!!!”
Fuji: “Shall we be going now?”
“That was quite a few notable names…”
Marine: “Now, how should we go about this…?”
“Oh… here’s your coat…”

Bartender: “Green Bit, huh…”
Text: “At a café in the northeast”
Bartender: “Can’t really recommend it…”
“You guys researchers? Or explorers?”
“Unless it’s something worth risking your lives for…”
“I say don’t go…”
Robin: “But the bridge is sturdy enough, yes?”
Page 9:
Bartender: “For sure. It’s an iron bridge.”
“But, well, look at the entrance…”
“As you can see, no one’s using it.”
“All around Green Bit…”
“There live swarms of “Fighting Fish”…”
“Seems like until they appeared, people came and went regularly”
“Started about 200 years ago, I hear…”
CC: “Shuroro… sir… just what are these “fighting fish”?”
Bartender: “Violent fish with horns. If a ship approaches…”
“Well, they’ll capsize it!!”
“For that reason, the bridge was strengthened with iron, but… it’s still no use”
Usopp: “No use? …Oi!! You saying that even an iron bridge could be brought down by these fish!?”
Page 10:
Bartender: “Well, as for what’s become of the bridge… only those who’ve gone can say”
“Although I don’t know anyone who’s returned…”
Usopp: “What!!?”
“Oi!! Tora-man!! Change the location of the exchange!!”
CC: “Indeed! The guy you’re exchanging agrees!! You fool!!”
Law: “We’re not changing anything.”
“We’ve come this far, so quit complaining”
“Rather than that… what I’m worried about is the current state of this country.”
“Even though their king just abdicated… this city is perfectly calm…!!”
“Even if it’s still a bit soon, this is far from what I expected…!!”
Usopp: “That’s what you’re worried about!!?”
“Hmm?”
“What’s up, Robi-…“
Page 11:
CC: “Ugeh!!”
Usopp: “Who the hell are they…!?”
Law: “It’s “CP-0”…!!”
“Why are they here…?”
Usopp: “Ehh…!? “CP”…!?”
Text box: “The World’s Strongest Intelligence Agency”
“Cipher Pol Aigis 0”
Usopp: “Could… could they be connected with “CP-9”…!?”
Robin: “They’re the highest ranking of the agencies…”
“When they appear, you can be sure nothing good is going on”
Law: “…That’s for sure…”

Chopper: “We’re playing “shogun””
Brook: “Playing… shogun!?”
Chopper: “That Momo… when we leave him alone…”
“He clams up and falls into deep thought”
“He hasn’t said anything, but at that age…”
“I’m thinking he must be dealing with something deep, in his heart…”
Brook: “…Really now. …So that’s how it is…”
Momo: “Hey, Boney!”
“Provide some entertainment on the side!”
Brook: “No way. I only take orders from Luffy-san…”
