The outside colored cover is pink, and the title logo is gray fading from white, dark gray, and purple. The author's name is written in purple.

Luffy stands in the center in a fighting pose. Behind him are Buggy, Galdino, and Bentham, who strike various other fighting poses. Behind them, from left to right, are Minokoala, Minozebra, and Minorhinoceros. The bottom half of the background is torn away, revealing part of Ace's face.

Author's Notes

Author's Notes I heard that when you don't have enough oxygen in your body, your body says "gimme oxygen" and makes you yawn. When you yawn and the person next to you yawns as well, I personally think it's because the earth's oxygen suddenly decreases when you yawn. You know, the Law of Conservation of Mass and all. Thinking back, I yawned that day. ...yes, that day of the dream of all humanity, the space shuttle went to space. Half of that was a lie. Volume 55 is starting-!!
