Smoker followed Garp's pointing finger.
His face darkened like the bottom of a pot.
In Loguetown's central square.
Atop the steel tower that had just been split in half by lightning.
Stood a figure.
Zhao Hai wore an unranked grunt's uniform.
One foot rested on the wooden platform where Roger had once knelt.
In his hand was a Visual Den Den Mushi he had no idea where he had gotten.
He was shouting at a battered pirate below.

Baskis did not even have the strength to hold a sword now.
He could only serve as a temporary photographer against his will.
He stared at the teenager striking an arrogant pose in the frame.

One punch had shattered the swift blade he had been so proud of.

Zhao Hai flicked the photograph.

He would send it to Old Qian later. It
