Cover
CP9's Independent Report Vol. 5: "Escaping Trainrail"

The CP9's are walking on the trainrail to get away from the ruins of Enies Lobby.

Long Summary
Sanji and Duval argues about why Sanji's bounty poster has the same hairstyle and face like Duval's. The Straw Hats (except Sanji) comments about the coincidence of Duval's hairstyle and Sanji's bounty poster. Sanji tells Duval to change his hairstyle, beard or something else. Duval proceeds to tell Sanji about his history and how he had to escape form the marines. Sanji then asks Duval why he attacked Nami and the others. Duval replied that the crew and ship was why Sanji could become a famous pirate, and he wants to get revenge.

Duval proceeds to attack Sanji by using his harpoon gun. Luckily, Sanji found out that the weapons were poisonous and manages to dodge them. Unfortunately, two other members of the Rosy Life Riders trap Sanji using a steel net, and drags him into the sea. The Straw Hats try to warn Sanji to get off the net but to no avail. Luffy tries to save him, but is stopped by Zoro. Hatchan tells them that he will go and save Sanji.

Duval informs the other Straw Hats that the two riders have air canisters so they can stay in the water as long as they can, and Sanji, without having any air canisters, will drown and by the time the Straw Hats see Sanji again, they would just see a drowned body.

Sanji's attempt to escape remains futile. Just as one of the riders tells Sanji to feel the warth of Duval, Keimi jumps into the water, attempting to save Sanji. Pappug compares the speed of fishmen to the Flying Fish, saying although the Flying Fish is faster than fishmen, but they would lose to fishmen when in the ocean. He also mentions that the merfolk is the only race that is the fastest in the ocean, and nobody in the world can swim faster than a mermaid.
