One Piece Chapter 1145: “Secret of the Crater Sea” Cover Story (1 page)
Cover Request: “Franky and Usopp racing snail cars through a maze-like coral reef, with Chopper cheering them on from the sidelines.”
Page 1-2
Chapter begins on the outskirts of the “Crater Sea” (introduced last chapter as the place where the strange phenomenon occurred).
Franky, Reiju, and Chopper are sailing in a small vessel built by Franky for quick maneuvering. They are discussing the bizarre sightings of a giant “Scorch Whale.”
Reiju senses something odd in the air—she detects a faint chemical presence that reminds her of the poison-laden environment of Punk Hazard.

Cut to a flashback of Reiju and Franky from earlier that morning.
Franky reveals he’s used scrap metal from the abandoned Marine facility to construct an amphibious mini-sub.
Reiju hints that the hidden lab under the crater might contain experiments related to “artificial weather manipulation.” She suspects it’s the cause of the “heat bursts” the area experiences.

Scene shifts to Marine Base G-19 where Vice Admiral Smoker and Tashigi are investigating a battered warship that drifted into port.
Survivors from the ship mention they saw “Blackbeard’s silhouette” near the Crater Sea.
Smoker, furious at the lack of clear intel, decides to head there himself to confirm if Teach is really involved.

Back to Franky’s group: They navigate the Crater Sea’s edges.
Suddenly, a giant geyser of scorching water erupts, nearly capsizing them.
A monstrous shape appears below, but vanishes before they can confirm if it’s the rumored “Scorch Whale.”
Chopper wonders if the extreme heat is natural or if something is “heating the sea from within.”

Meanwhile, in the “Undersea Lab” that Reiju suspected existed:
A shadowy figure wearing a lab coat is seen adjusting a large device labeled “Thermionic Pulse Generator.”
The figure murmurs about a “Grand Test” that will occur soon, referencing “Project Avernus.”

Cut to Garp, Luffy, and Brook still traveling from last chapter.
They’re in a small rowboat, having parted ways with part of the Straw Hat crew.
Luffy is impatient, wanting to see if this “monster rumor” is strong enough to challenge. Brook cracks a joke about a “hot bath” in the scorching sea.
Garp, ever carefree, warns Luffy not to underestimate “science gone wrong,” recalling incidents involving Vegapunk’s old experiments.

Scene returns to the mini-sub:
Franky, Reiju, and Chopper submerge underwater to get a closer look at the crater’s depths.
They discover a massive metallic structure embedded in the sea floor. Strange cables run from the structure into pockets of magma vents.
Reiju confirms the cables are pumping something into the vents—likely fueling the intense heat surges.

A sudden attack:
A swarm of mechanical sea beasts, reminiscent of the “Pacifista prototypes,” rush the sub.
Franky activates a new weapon he calls the “Coup de Shock,” sending out an electromagnetic pulse to disrupt them.
Chopper, noticing the sub’s hull is cracking under the heat, panics.
Page 13-14
High above the crater:
Blackbeard’s ship is revealed on a rocky outcrop, with Van Augur peering through a telescope.
Teach grins, saying, “Zehahaha! So this is the ‘Weapon of the Old World’ that the Marines tried to hide! If I can harness that power, the seas will boil under my command!”
The camera zooms in on a large control panel, where a faint insignia of the World Government can be seen.

Cliffhanger:
Franky and Reiju manage to drive off the mechanical sea beasts but are forced to surface.
As they break through the waves, they come face-to-face with Blackbeard’s crew on the shore.
Teach stands ominously, the “Thermionic Pulse Generator” blueprint in his hand, mocking them: “You’re too late, Straw Hat allies. This power is mine now!”
The final panel shows Chopper’s shocked expression, with Reiju’s eyes narrowed in determination. Franky readies his gauntlet, steam rising from it.
End of Chapter 1145. Next issue: “Stolen Fire!” The fate of the Crater Sea’s secret weapon lies in the balance.
