Volume 3 is titled "Things That Can't Be Faked".
==Cover and Volume Illustration==
The colored cover has a salmon pink background, with the title colored black, purple, and yellow. The author's name is printed in blue.
On the front, Luffy and Zoro are shown standing on a dinghy, with Zoro holding his swords. Luffy wears a large red coat on his shoulders, with his right sleeve holding on to it.
On the spine, Zoro is featured, and the skull on the spine is colored lavender purple. 
For the volume illustration, Luffy holds a small handheld telescope and poses with his thumb up and his mouth goofily shaped like a fish. There is a faded map in the background.

If I ever get to take a break for a whole entire year, there's something I'd like to do.
Polishing various drawing skills and drawing tool techniques.
Then, drawing would surely become a lot more fun.
I wonder who said that the earth is a narrow place.

==Pirate "Buggy the Clown" - Road to center stage!!==
Pirate "Buggy the Clown" - Road to center stage!! (海賊「道化のバギー」表舞台への軌跡！！) is a segment included in this volume. It is divided into 2 parts, with the title of part 2 being slightly altered to Buggy's crew - Road to center stage!! (バギー一味　表舞台への軌跡！！) instead, and can be located in between chapters on pages 46 and 156.
In this segment, Oda explains the evolution of Buggy in early One Piece. There are also pieces of concept art, provided on pages 26 and 136, to assist the content for this segment.
===Concept Art ===
===Context===
====Page 46====
*About the illustration on page 26.
Some people probably went "What do you mean Boogie!". However, that illustration was actually the original concept for Buggy and his crew. In other words, Buggy was originally supposed to be called Boogie.
*Why did he become Buggy?
One day, I was watching a movie. Suddenly, a dude who calls himself Boogie is introduced. "Aghck. Same name. Damn, I won't use Boogie then. (0.2 seconds later) I'll use Buggy."
*Why did Buggy's nose end up being so round?
It's a lot more clown-esque.
*Who's the dude on the far left side?
I forget. Rather, at this stage, none of the three in the background even had names. 
All I really had in mind was
from left to right: strongman, an animal trainer, and some kind of weird swordsman.
That was a page from back in their raw days, with still a long ways to center stage.
====Page 156====
*About the illustration on page 136.
That was the concept for Buggy and his crew in its second stage. At this point, Buggy already looks like his current self, so I decided to just go without including him in the crew. 
*Why is Zoro there?
Why, indeed. That is because, in this set up from at the time, it was planned for Zoro to be introduced as the shipguard for Buggy's ship. Though after thinking through it a lot, I decided against it.
*"Hachi the homer"
He's a homing bird. In charge of flapping around, transmitting information amongst Buggy's crew. He is a bird that is categorized in a species called "Opo". Apparently, the Grand Line is their natural habitat.
*Mohji.

==Volume Extras==
*Titled Coloring book segment [ぬりえコーナー], a self-colorable drawing of the Straw Hat Pirates on a deck (Nami drawing a map and Luffy and Zoro) having drinks in the background is provided on page 116.
*On pages 196-197 the author adds an extra segment titled Let's Make the "Discovery! The great treasure!" Corner ["発見！大秘宝！"を作ろうのコーナー], where he provides an illustration of another small toy that can be cut out with scissors. He explains how to assemble the toy on the next 2 pages, and as a side note, adds an apology for not being able to start the newly announced SBS segment in this volume as planned.
==Trivia==
*Though the SBS series was planned to start in this volume, it was pushed back a volume due to problems caused by the volume release date.
