Sanji vs. Jabra

East Blue, the sea restaurant Baratie.

"Tch! Sanji got to show off!"

"Who knows how long he'll be smug about this!"

"But to be fair, Sanji looked really cool coming to the rescue!"

"You bet! Everyone who comes out of Baratie can hold their own."

"Get him, Sanji! Beat that wolf so badly even his mother won't recognize him!"

"That's right! Go, Sanji!"

"Go, Sanji!"

"..."

"..."

Hearing his subordinates in the restaurant below cheering Sanji on, Red-Leg Zeff's lips curved upward slightly. He joined in, saying, "Go, Sanji!"

New World, Germa Kingdom.

"This pisses me off! He's just Sanji! Who does he think he is, trying to look cool?" Yonji said angrily.

"Sanji, could it be that you're actually a little useful?" Judge narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

"Well done, Sanji. You really are a little handsome when you get serious!" Reiju murmured, her eyes smiling.

Grand Line, somewhere at sea, aboard the Thousand Sunny.

"I'm so cool I'm almost impressed with myself! Who knows how many ladies are going to fall for me now!" Sanji said smugly.

"Hmph! You looked cool when Kalifa beat you to a pulp, too!" Zoro mocked.

"You damn Moss Head, at least I wasn't handcuffed by Usopp—and to him, no less. That was hilarious! But it suits you!" Sanji shot back.

"You damn cook, are you looking for a fight?" Zoro challenged.

"Bring it on! You think I'm scared of you?"

"..."

"..."

And so, as Sanji and Zoro argued, they came to blows.

Seeing this, their crewmates all thoughtfully and naturally stepped aside, silently making room for them.

After all, they were already used to this sort of thing!

Unlike in reality, the moment Zoro saw that the newcomer in the video was Sanji, a relieved smile appeared on his face, and he focused on fighting Kaku.

Meanwhile, Usopp coughed up blood as he apologized to Sanji, saying that if he hadn't been so weak, things wouldn't have...

But Sanji cut him off, saying that everyone had things they could and couldn't do, and he shouldn't take it too much to heart.

Then he told the two of them to look outside. Usopp and Nami immediately looked through the huge hole Monster Chopper had made earlier.

Out at sea, the enormous, imposing Gate of Justice was slowly opening. If Robin was taken through it, they wouldn't be able to bring her back.

After all, the gate led to only two places: Marine Headquarters and Impel Down.

"Didn't Luffy make it in time?" Nami immediately asked.

As soon as she spoke, the video briefly cut to Luffy. Rob Lucci had him pinned down, and he had no way to get past him and reach Robin.

Next, it also showed Franky, who was making his way toward Luffy and the others through a secret passage, with Chimney guiding him.

The video then returned to Sanji and the others.

Sanji told Usopp and Nami that the situation was dire, but even in dire situations, there could be a turning point, and that turning point would be Usopp. Sanji would handle what Usopp couldn't do, and Usopp would handle what Sanji couldn't do. So he should leave Jabra to Sanji!

Usopp was confused for a moment, unable to understand what Sanji meant, before Nami forcibly dragged him away!

Jabra immediately attacked Sanji, blasting a Iron Body Fist: Wolf Bullet at him. Sanji blocked it with his foot at once, but was still sent flying outside and crashed into a wall, filling the air with dust.

Jabra immediately followed him outside. Just then, Usopp, who had been dragged along by Nami, understood what Sanji had meant. He got up from the ground, called to Nami, and ran off excitedly.

His action immediately caught Jabra's attention. Jabra had just started to turn his gaze back to them when Sanji burst out of the dust and kicked him in the face, sending him crashing into the wall hard enough to dent it and fill the air with dust.

Jabra rubbed his face as he emerged from the dust, glaring venomously at Sanji. He then used Ten-Finger Guns, but Sanji dodged it easily and immediately countered with Troisième Hachis. Jabra endured the blow with Tekkai, but still dropped to one knee, gasping for breath. Clearly, Sanji's kicks were quite effective against him, but he refused to admit it, stubbornly insisting that they had no effect on him at all.

Sanji remarked that their ability to turn into iron really was troublesome.

Jabra said nothing more and used Rankyaku: Lone Wolf against him. A slash surged toward Sanji like a wave, but he leaped high into the air and easily dodged it.

He then unleashed a series of kicks named after cuts of meat, striking Jabra and driving him back more than ten steps before finishing with Veau Shot. But Jabra endured it with Iron Body Fist, and the kick only sent him back several more steps.

Jabra glanced at Sanji disdainfully, mocking his attacks as useless while using Iron Body Fist: Wolf Fang against him. He sent Sanji flying into a nearby wall, filling the air with dust.

Jabra boasted smugly that, of all the Six Powers users, he was the only one who could fight while maintaining Tekkai over his entire body.

Sanji didn't want to listen to his rambling. He darted out of the dust and struck Jabra with Deuxième Hachis, sending him flying into a nearby wall and filling the air with dust.

This time, Jabra didn't get up immediately. Instead, he leaned against the gaping hole he had made and tossed out the key. Shamelessly, he told Sanji a story about Robin being his biological younger sister and asked Sanji to help rescue her.

Clearly, he intended to trick Sanji with the same method he had just used on Usopp.

Sanji initially looked surprised, then walked toward the key on the ground, assuring Jabra that he would definitely help rescue Robin.

When Sanji bent down to pick up the key, Jabra attacked him, just as expected.

But Sanji hadn't fallen for it at all. When Jabra appeared in front of him, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked him into the wall above.

Looking at Jabra hanging above him, Sanji said that if he dared claim Robin-chan was his sister, he should at least come up with a better lie.

Jabra soon fell down and glared viciously at Sanji.

The next second, he saw Sanji playing with the key and instantly lost his composure, declaring that the key was his.

Sanji, however, said that Jabra had given it to him, and asked if he wanted another beating.

Jabra immediately assumed a fighting stance, facing Sanji with an "iron fist" move.

Sanji glared viciously at him as well, as though the two were about to start fighting again.

But the next second, Sanji did something Jabra had never expected: he suddenly turned and ran.

Jabra froze for a moment, then used Soru to chase after him, shouting that lying was his specialty.
