ONE PIECE Vol. 65 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Hody Jones is a monster born of pure malice, devoid of any true ideological kinship with the island’s past heroes. Empowered by the lethal energy steroids, he forces Luffy into a brutal, suffocating underwater battle. Despite sustaining grievous wounds, Luffy fights with everything he has, driven by the desperate pleas of Princess Shirahoshi. The conflict reveals that Hody’s crusade was nothing more than a perversion of Fisher Tiger’s legacy, weaponized to destroy the island from within. Luffy’s Gear Third strikes serve as the ultimate judgment, crashing Hody’s delusions and tearing down the barriers of prejudice. By planting his flag, Luffy does more than win a fight; he paves the way for a future where fish-men can finally walk under the sun. As the tide turns and the carnage ends, the dawn of a new era begins to break over the deep sea.
