Storyline
Onigashima, Main Hall: The fact that Zoro and Sanji were able to score a hit against King and Queen left everyone watching speechless. Nevertheless, the two “disasters” just rise again to take up the fight against the Straw Hats. King attacks Sanji with his sword, but Zoro is able to stop it in time. For this, Sanji blocks Queen’s “Bridal Grapper” with his Diable Jambe, which should apply to the swordsman, which in turn makes the Zoan user believe that the Cook has been “improved” by the Germa 66 equal to his siblings. However, Sanji corrects his opponent by directly continuing to attack with his burning legs. At the same time, Zoro has taken up swordplay against King when the Lunaria reveals his serrated blade, with which he manages to fling Zoro’s swords from the latter’s hands. However, the straw hat is able to counter the following fist strike of the “Forest Fire” with his third sword, whereupon he repeats to his enemy that he cannot afford to lose…
After Zoro was able to repeat his swords shortly after, including the Enma, which is sacred in Wano Country, Kawamatsu and Hyogoro realize that the pirate resembles the former daimyo Shimotsuki Ushimaru, a direct descendant of the legendary Ryuma, both in his appearance and his fighting style. Moreover, it was he who had brought back the lost Shuusui… All of this must be fate…
Meanwhile, on the second floor: The duel between Inuarashi and Jack is still going on when the Mink just grabs “the drought” and hurls it into a wall. To the Beasts Pirates Pirate’s horror, he then sees that the “Ruler of the Day” has transformed into his Su Long form due to a hole in the ceiling…
At the same time Charlotte Perospero is confronted with Nekomamushi in his Su Long form in front of the castle…
Meanwhile at Luffy’s harbor: The Heart Pirates has drawn their weapons, as a giant dragon has suddenly appeared, which they think is Kaidou. The captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, however, immediately recognizes that it’s none other than Momonosuke. As Shinobu explains it, she had let her lord “mature” to an age of 28 on his orders. Together, the two comrades-in-arms now want to win the battle for Wano Country…
