After riding Sodom to the courthouse, the King Bull decides to pass the time by telling the crew how he and Gomorrah met Franky through Chopper while Gomorrahand the Franky Family fend off the marines.

Sanji: Can you watch where you're going? You're making me nervous

Sodom: GROAR!!

Chopper: "I will follow Big Bro Franky until the day I die!" He says

Dino: Bet he's happy that someone can understand him

Sodom grunts while nodding in response.

Sodom: GROAR, GROOOAR, GROAR!!

Chopper: He said, "By the way, the masked guy that was with you never made it aboard my back. Is that okay?"

Upon hearing the question, the crew realized that Usopp was gone.

Chopper: *panicking* AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!! HE'S TALKING ABOUT SNIPER KING!! WHERE IS HE!!?

Nami: *crying* Why now? Why now?

Zoro: *irritated* That idiot. Did he fall off?

Dino: Chopper just said he was never on his back

Sanji: *irritated* He probably ran away again

Chopper: *panicking* What do we do?! What do we do?!

Chopper's panic turned into sadness as he clung on to Dino.

Zoro: It's too late now. Even if we wanted to, it's not like we can go back and pick him up

Dino: Hey, can you stop clinging on to me, Chopper?! You're getting snot all over my tunic!

Chopper: *crying* But... Sniper King!...

Sanji: Relax Chopper, I'm sure he'll figure something out

Nami: How? The whole island is swarming with marines. He's not like Luffy or Rimuru!

Zoro: Have faith in him. No one from our crew would die at a time like this

Chopper: *confused* "From our crew"? What're you talking about, Zoro? Sniper King may be here to help, but he doesn't replace Usopp

Dino was relieved that Chopper got off him but is still confused that Chopper still hasn't realized Usopp is Sniper King.

Dino: Usopp is not part of our crew anymore, remember?

Chopper: I know... But still...

Sanji: He'll be fine. He is a superhero, after all

Chopper wiped his tears and made a brave face.

Chopper: You're right. Sniper King would never let evil triumph

Dino: (But aren't we technically the bad guys, since we are pirates?)

Sodom: GROAR!!

Sodom and Gomorrah moved faster, trying to reach the courthouse as fast as possible.

As they were getting closer, a blast from a mortar came out of nowhere and stuck Sodom with a powerful explosion.

Sodom: *coughed blood* GROAR!!

Sanji: We've been hit! No!

Franky Family: SODOM!!

Chopper: This is bad! He needs my help!

Zanbai: Grit those teeth and hold on, Sodom!

The marines cheered while Gomorrah and the Franky Family moved next to them.

Zanbai: Guys, you're gonna have to jump quickly! That mortar hit Sodom straight in the chest. He can't go on!

Sodom: GROAR!! GROAR!! GROAR!!
