One's Own Ways

Luffy tells his crew to go after Nami who took off with their ship. Hawk-Eyed Mihawk tells the pirates of Krieg's fleet that he destroyed their ships because he was bored. Zoro challenges Mihawk to a duel. Meanwhile, Nami cries, saying she wants to be free.

Episode 51 (WJ #36, 1998)
Zoro Roronoa Falls on the Seas

Mihawk accepts Zoro's challenge with what seems like a fruit knife. None of Zoro's attacks even reach Mihawk. Luffy holds Yosaku and Johnny from helping Zoro. Mihawk calls checkmate by stabbing his knife into Zoro, but Zoro refuses to admit defeat - "I would rather die." Mihawk takes his large sword and defeats Zoro's strongest attack. Zoro faces Mihawk ("To have a wound on the back an embarrassing thing for a swordsman") and Mihawk delivers the last blow.

Episode 52 (WJ #37-38, 1998)
Vow

Yosaku and Johnny dive into the waters to save Zoro. Luffy springs over to the broken ship to attack Mihawk, but the grand swordsman tells the rubber boy that Zoro is still alive. Mihawk tells Zoro to become stronger and he will wait until then. Zoro swears to Luffy that he will never be defeated again until he defeats Mihawk. Luffy sends his four crew after Nami, and gets ready to fight the pirates of Krieg's fleet.

Episode 53 (WJ #39, 1998)
Sabagashira Number One

Krieg smiles that if he can get the restaurant-ship Baratie, he will be able to surprise-attack enemies. He also claims that Mihawk, like Luffy, is a possessor of the powers of the devil fruit. He then points to the restaurant, saying that Red-Footed Zeff was able to sail on the Grand Line for a year, and therefore his log must have some useful information. Luffy makes sure with Zeff that he can go if he gets rid of Krieg's fleet. Zeff says all right, because he doesn't want Luffy making a mess of his restaurant for a whole year. Sanji tells one of the workers to "open the fins", saying that Zeff would get more pissed off if the fight goes on in the restaurant than if the enemy had more foothold. Luffy launches himself towards the enemies, and takes quite a few into the ocean with his arms ("GumGum Scythe"). Krieg laughs that he knows Luffy can't fight in water, but Luffy counters that he can stretch. Pati and Carne start up Sabagashira (literally, "mackerel head") #1 - the little rowboat + cannon that dislodges from the restaurant's nose. Sabagashira #1 shoots cannons into the enemy ship remains, to the delight of the remaining restaurant crew. The "fins" open to reveal a fighting surface. Luffy thinks it's really cool, and Krieg notes that the he wants the ship more than ever before. Krieg catches and throws Sabagashira #1 towards Baratie, whee Sanji kicks it back into the ocean.
