While Brogy is trying to escape from his wax handcuffs, Mr. 3 stabs him by using his wax sword which pierces his hands and feet. He wants his future wax statues to express distress and pain. Nami and Vivi have more and more trouble moving while the wax covering them is increasing. Deciding not to die in such a stupid way, Zoro starts to cut off his own legs. Everyone is astonished by such a stupid idea except Brogy who finds new hope in an act of proof of a real warrior. Fortunately for Zoro's legs, Luffy, Usopp, and Carue make their apparition, deciding to avenge the giants.

He then increase the speed of his candle technique and explains that the Straw Hats will be turned into a group of wax statues, perserving the look of horro on their faces forever. Broggy then tries to get up once more but fails, and Zoro inspired by his attempt, resolves to cut off his own legs to escape, and his resolve inspires Broggy to try one last time to get up.
