⚠️ #ONEPIECE1197 - FULL SUMMAY: PART 1 ⚠️ One Piece Chapter 1197: "Love is Defense" English Translation by yours truly: 🍍 ----------------------------- Cover Page Request: “Zoro laughing out loud at Sanji, who has been turned into a child by Bonney’s ability.” We can see Bonney eating meat at a table while Zoro hands out candy to kid Sanji, laughing out loud. Kid Sanji is clearly annoyed and is trying to kick Zoro, LOL. TL NOTE: On Zoro’s shirt, there’s a quote written in Old Irish: Rop tú mo chathscíath, rop tú mo chlaideb. This translates into English as: “Be thou my battle-shield, be thou my sword.” These lines come from the fifth stanza of Rop tú mo baile, the Old Irish Christian poem traditionally associated with the beloved hymn Be Thou My Vision. The poem is traditionally dated to the 8th century, although some scholars suggest it may have been composed later. --------------------------------------- Beginning Note: VS. St. Killingham!!! Sanji, confronting his own "self," is…?! Killingham: “Stop acting so high and mighty”*...?!! Hey, you lowly commoner, Sanji... (TL NOTE: I'm using my personal translation from the previous chapter. VIZ' TL of this line from the last scene of the previous chapter is : "Get off your high horse.") Killingham: What’s wrong? Have you finally come to admire us “Celestial Dragons”...!? You must be glad that your nightmare has vanished...!! What the heck happened to you in such a short time...!? Sanji exhales a puff of smoke. Killingham: OK!!! how utterly insolent!! Pierce him!! “LONGINUS”!!! (Killingham launches a laser beam attack towards Sanji.) (Sanji flicks his cigarette away.) (Sanji gets behind Killingham instantenously.) Sanji: I’ll go with "Defense"... by making these legs harder than anything else!!Iva…!! You were right all along…!! IFRIT JAMBE!! COLLIER...!! Sanji's inner monologue: I... (Sanji gets behind Killingham to deliver a powerful kick, but Killingham turns the tip of his spear toward Sanji’s leg to intercept the attack.) Killingham: Gahahahahaha!! Sanji's inner monologue: I wanted to die!!! I wanted to kill this body!! Because I thought it would be better to die than become scum like them* someday...!! (Referring to his father and brothers.) You were the only one who realized that's how I felt...!! (Ivankov: HEE-HAW!!!!!!) Sanji's inner monologue: You were right all along. Maybe I really did see this body of mine as something filthy...!! (Sanji’s leg clashes with the tip of Longinus, causing it to crack. He shatters the spearhead, and his powerful kick continues straight through, hitting Killingham right in the face. At this moment, his eyebrow curls to the left, resembling those of his Vinsmoke brothers. The same thing happened during his battle with Queen, when his Germa exoskeleton awakened. Killingham is sent flying backward, smashing through giant houses along the way.) Sanji: “FORTRESS”!!! [TL NOTE: The kanji reads 要塞 (yōsai), meaning “fortress.”] Sanji’s inner monologue: No!! I MUST protect it!! Killingham: Whoa, that was close! I almost fell...!! (He's saying he almost fell in the flood water created by the MMA Zaza) Killingham: Ow, ow... IT HURTS～～～!!! That bastard!! He broke right through “LONGINUS”...!! This is an insult to the Rimoshifu Family...!! [Sanji thinks about Zeff, Ivankov (although Iva is barely visible in the panel, LOL), and then Reiju.] Sanji’s inner thoughts: This body doesn't belong to Germa...!!! It was trained by that damn old man... and trained in the Kamaba...!!! (Trained in the Kamabakka Kingdom...) (TL NOTE: LOL, Sanji was about to say “Kamabakka Kingdom” but stopped halfway through the thought. Oda included the full phrase anyway so readers would understand. Sanji really doesn't want to remember his time there anymore, LMAO.) Flashback thoughts: Reiju: You were protected by Mom’s desperate struggle, even at the cost of her own life. And that child was you, Sanji!! A child born with “emotions.” Sanji’s inner thoughts: This body that my late mother gave her life to protect...!! These legs...!! If I can't even protect them, then how am I supposed to protect anything...?! (At this moment, Sanji’s eyebrows curl back to their original position, pointing toward the right.) Sanji: First of all, I have a body right here that I need to protect!!! This is my body that’s fought its way through countless hardships!!! (Sanji remembers his past adversaries: Mr. 2 Bon Clay, Jabra, Absalom, Wadatsumi, Vinsmoke Judge, and Queen.) (Killingham is lying on the ground.) Killingham: Hah... hah... What the heck...? Am I imagining it, or is my regeneration slower than usual?! And yet, I can't seem to use anything... against a nobody like him... Ow, ow... Hm? (Sanji closes in on Killingham from above.) Sanji: “COLLIER FORTRESS”!!! (Sanji kicks Killingham hard in the face again, LOL. His neck gets twisted in a weird way.) Killingham: FUOGEHHH!! Gah...!! Sanji’s inner thoughts: “Armament” alone is not enough...!! I’ll defend by making these legs harder than anything else!!! (Sanji prepares to kick Killingham in the neck again.) Killingham: Huh...?!!! (Sanji keeps kicking Killingham in the neck, LOL. “COLLIER” is the French term for the neck cut of meat in butchery, a reference to the French culinary terminology used in Sanji’s attacks.) Sanji: “COLLIER”!!! Killingham: GAAAH!!! Sanji: “COLLIER”!!! Killingham: GEEHH!!! Sanji: “COLLIER”!!! Killingham: AGHAAH!!! Sanji: “COLLIER”!!! Killingham: GDEH...!!! *CRACK...* HAH...!!! AAAAAHHHHHH～～～!!! Killingham: YOU BASTARD...!! Have you ever had your neck bones broken over and over and over again in your entire damn life?! Huff... huff... Sanji: I get what you were saying about “Conqueror’s Haki,” but... To put it simply, I just need you to “want to die,” right? (Killingham makes a funny shocked face, LOL) Killingham: What the heck is this guy talking about...?!!! (TO BE CONTINUED ON FULL SUMMARY PART 2)
