"One Piece" Events:
"Ahh! That bastard!!" shouted one of the Flying Fish Riders upon seeing Luffy successfully kick Duval's iron mask away from his head.
"Duval-sama's iron mask got...!!!"
"This guy...!!" Zoro was shocked after seeing Duval's real face.
"Maa," Robin did not expect to find such a face in this world... The strange coincidence was even more shocking.
"Oh my." Even Brook felt that the situation couldn't get any weirder after seeing Duval's face.
"Uohh... I'm moved..." Franky could tell that the owner of this face had suffered a lot, so he was deeply moved to the point of tears as usual.
"I've waited for this day... In order to send you to hell, I set out to sea...!!"
"But finding you... has been a problem...!! Because the face on the wanted poster is different from the face of the person himself...!!"
Duval took out the wanted poster for Sanji while expressing his grievances: "Even if bounty hunters or the marines came across the real one, they might just pass him by!!"
"No, there's no way that could happen...!! They'll find you guys!!!"
Flying Fish Riders: "Head...!!"
Suddenly, Sanji jumped off the ship and swam towards the buildings.
"Oi, Sanji, where are you...!?" exclaimed Usopp.
"They'll find you and they'll say, 'Found You!!' 'Black Leg Sanji'!!! And then I..."
"I'M NOT HIM!!!!"
"I DON'T KNOW HIM!!!!"
"I'M NOT EVEN A PIRATE!!!!"
Duval's real face appeared, and to everyone's shock, it was the same face as the one on Sanji's wanted poster!
It turned out that the reason for his suffering was Sanji's existence.
Duval continued passionately speaking, tears never leaving his eyes: "Do you understand it?! The dread of one day, all of a sudden, being hunted down?!"
"... And then... I started getting chased by 'Marine Headquarters'!!!..."
"Famous bounty hunters started aiming for my life!"
"What did I do!!?"
"Give me back my life---!!"
When Sanji finally arrived, he kicked Duval in the face, shouting, "LIKE I CARE-!!!"
"BOBEH~~~!!!" Due to the force of the kick, Duval spat out blood.
It became clear that all of this was: The tragedy of the bounty face!!
Marineford Headquarters:
The marine soldiers awkwardly looked at each other, then burst into laughter in less than a second.
"Hahahahahaha!"
"Jajajajajaja!"
"Kahahahaha!! I'm dying!"
"Hahahahahaha! Oh my stomach!"
"Hahahahahahahaha! What a tragic story!"
"Shahahahahahahaha! I'm laughing and crying at the same time!"
A strange scene unfolded in different soldier resting quarters, with some clutching their stomachs tightly while laughing in the most peculiar ways.
Some filled the place with their tears, but the strange thing was that those shedding tears were laughing hysterically.
While some even fainted from excessive laughter... It could truly be said that no one expected such a hilarious tragic story behind the iron mask.
...
"..."
In the Fleet Admiral's office, the navy leaders looked at each other with eyes on the verge of bursting from shock.
"Bwahahahahahaha! Oh my stomach!"
"Bwahahahahaha!!!!! What an unlucky guy~!!!"
Only Garp, who usually acted casually, was currently laughing heartily, while both Sengoku and Zephyr stared at the manga page with disbelief.
"What a tremendous mistake... destroying an innocent person's life because of an incorrect wanted poster... This is a misjudgment on our part, sigh~!!!"
Sengoku sighed sadly, as the Fleet Admiral he couldn't bring himself to laugh at the tragedy of this man who had suffered blatant injustice because of them.
"Should we consider halting the authorization of manually drawn posters? I mean, if the person's picture is not available, we could just put the name and general description until the actual picture is obtained."
Zephyr made an excellent suggestion at this moment.
"It seems that's the right course of action to avoid falling into such a grave mistake..." agreed Sengoku.
While Tsuru also nodded in agreement, Garp continued to laugh fervently.
...
On board the Oro Jackson in the New World:
"Hahahahahaha!!!"
"Wahahahaha!!"
"Rahahahaha!!"
"Hahaha!! What a tragic fate!"
Laughter could be heard echoing, a scene reminiscent of the situation with Roger's crew on Laugh Tale at that time.
Both Buggy and Shanks clutched their stomachs and laughed as if there were no tomorrow... How could they not laugh when they read such a hilarious chapter?
The crew's reaction when they saw Duval's face only added fuel to the fire.
Roger wiped away tears of laughter before speaking, "Wahahaha! I never thought I would witness a story funnier and more tragic than Buggy's story when he ate the Devil Fruit due to Shanks' mistake."
"How dare you compare me, the great Buggy-sama, to a mere stuffing character, Captain!" retorted Buggy.
...
Ohara, Art Palace:
While enjoying grilled Takoyaki, Little Robin cast a sidelong glance at Sora and Toki, who were laughing to the point of tears streaming down their faces.
"Why don't you read today's chapters, Yamato-chan? They seem fun~!!!" Little Robin said with a smile.
"It's okay, I'll stop reading the manga and watch the anime with you~ It's more enjoyable to accompany you in watching anime than reading the manga," replied Little Yamato with an expression hinting at a lie.
"Oh? Really? Look at Mom Sora and Mom Toki, how they're enjoying... Look at Big Sister Hancock too."
"They are all laughing from the bottom of their hearts. My dad must have drawn an incredibly funny scene."
