Summary:
The naval ship that Luffy and Lucci were fighting on crashes, Luffy is shocked by it as he is running out of Gear 3. He shrinks to “Chibi” size. Luffy knows the Gear 3 is fun, but the side effects are too annoying and now he’s going to have to spend a minute like this because he spent a minute using it. He hides, but Lucci has already seen him.
Elsewhere, the Straw Hat Pirates’ allies are trying to get out of Enies Lobby.
As destruction rages around them, Spandam flaunts the power of his Buster Call. Spandam tries to reason with Franky about Nico Robin, but he mentions Franky’s mentor, Tom, which triggers Franky’s anger. Spandam draws Funkfreed and orders him to seriously injure Robin so she can’t fight back later. The elephant sword is stopped by Franky, who then calms the elephant attack with a threat and a reminder of what kind of animal Funkfreed is. Franky remembers why he is doing this and that it is only because of the Straw Hat Pirates that he is able to get what he always wanted; get rid of the guy who put Tom away. His rage seethes and he throws Funkfreed back at Spandam. Franky continues to take out the marines that are with Spandam. Robin joins in and says she is not alone and has no reason to be afraid anymore.
At the tower, Luffy is pulled out by Lucci, Lucci brags about how Luffy should accept the weaknesses of his power and let it end now. Luffy tries to hit Lucci after being pinned to the wall, but his attacks now have no power against Lucci. He is thrown against another wall, Luffy can only beg his body to come back before another attack kills him, but the damage from Luffy’s earlier attack suddenly hits Luccia’s legs unexpectedly. Luffy is relieved when his body returns to normal.
In the tunnel under Zoro, Sanji, Chopper, Chimney, Gonbe, Sogeking, Nami, and Kokoro are now all submerged in the water in the tunnel. He tries to hold his breath and do something, but all is lost. Someone grabs them and pulls them and they see a picture of a beautiful mermaid. Unfortunately, the dream is shattered when they see that the mermaid is actually Kokoro, causing them all to nearly drown in shock.
