"Avalanche! Luffy and Sanji surf a tree down a mountain on a fast-moving wave of snow and just avoid being buried alive.

A friend who was just trying to kill him only hours before"--P. [4] of cover.

"With all the Officer Agents defeated, only Crocodile and his final plan to destroy the palace stands in the way of peace.
