Quick Summary
The Galley-La continue to attack Luffy until Franky intervenes and destroys the shipyard.

Long Summary
The chapter opens with Sanji and Chopper yelling information about Aqua Laguna near the Going Merry an attempt to let Usopp know and prepare without telling him directly. As the pair charge back to the town, Usopp is seen to have heard this but not identify the voices.

Back at the shipyard, Nami continues to struggle from the angry citizens trying to reason with them. However, the citizens and Galley-La members fail to listen and declare that both them and the citizens of Water 7 now see them as enemies. The Galley-La members, now knowing of Luffy's Devil Fruit abilities, continue their attack. Luffy still refuses to attack and is blasted by a bazooka. The crowd cheer as a concerned Nami cries Luffy's name. She then notices Franky, Mozu and Kiwi sitting watching and drinking at a table. Still in a rage that the Galley-La members interupted his fight, he throws the table to catch their attention. The members tell him simply to back off which infuriates him even more. The crowd begin to warn the Galley-La as Franky prepares to attack using his arms like a cannon. He reveals that it will shoot an air bullet which he used earlier and destroy the crane.

A huge ship is destroyed by the blast and the Galley-La members are thrown into the air. The crain falls and many of the citizens flee as Dock One is ruined. Nami manages to escape the crowd as Luffy emerges from the smoke unharmed. The pair decide to go confront Iceburg and to find out the truth. Mozu and Kiwi question Franky on what they will do next and he admits that that last attack was his last as shown by his hair which is flopped down on his face. He says that once he has refueled, he will go after Luffy although he admits that it will be tough. The Galley-La all appear unharmed and discuss what they will do next. Since the Aqua Laguna is due that night, they conclude that the only way off the island is the two trains since the Going Merry is in no condition to sail. As Kokoro, Chimney and Gonbe arrive in the city, the Galley-La states that this would be over by dawn.
