Jango's Dance Paradise Vol. 6: "Getaway Dance"

Jango escapes his pursuers by boat.

Quick Summary
Wapol appears.

Long Summary
Zoro scouted someone standing at the sea surface. After an awkward moment following this strange apparition, a submarine ship surfaces. The Straw Hat have been attacked by the Bliking's pirates and their captain Wapol. He asks first the Straw Hat if they have an Eternal Pose leading to Drum Island. Since the Straw Hat have never heard of this country, the pirates decide to steal their treasures instead. That said, Wapol, in front of bemused Straw Hat, starts to eat the deck of the Going Merry. Pissed that someone dares damage his ship, Luffy starts a fight against the pirates. Sanji and Zoro understand it as an agreement to enter into action. Luffy attacks Wapol directly but his Baku Baku no Mi seems to make him able to eat everything and he swallows Luffy's head. However, rubber seems difficult to masticate, leaving Luffy time to attack Wapol with a Gomu Gomu no Bazooka sending the hungry pirate flying away. Meanwhile, Vivi, intrigated by all the noise, has left Nami's bedside. She barely has time to notice Wapol, but he seems familiar to her.
