One Piece Chapter 1093: Luffy vs. Kizaru

00AI-written

Cover request page. Chapter 1093: Luffy vs. Kizaru. The printed caption says: "Cover request by Black Bean: 'Tarsier' brothers steal Koby and Helmeppo's glasses." Koby and Helmeppo are shown flailing and chasing after small tarsier-like brothers who have snatched their glasses, turning the Marine pair into the subject of a gag illustration. This is a reader-request cover illustration rather than part of the Egghead battle narrative.

In the Labophase, the crew stare in disbelief as Gear 5 Luffy has Admiral Kizaru trapped in one huge hand. Luffy laughs, "Shh-shishi!! Luffy!! Free as can be!" while others shout that he really caught Kizaru. The admiral, squeezed in Luffy's fingers, says, "Heeey now..." and Luffy answers, "Well, this is a pickle..." Luffy begins spinning Kizaru around at high speed, calling out "Whoo-hoo!!" and telling him, "Be gentle..." as if the admiral were the one handling him. The page turns the deadly Navy pursuit into a bizarre cartoon contest, with Luffy using his awakened body and giant scale to reduce Kizaru's light-speed pressure to something he can physically grab and throw.

Luffy completes the windup and hurls Kizaru away, yelling "...with meeeee!" as the admiral is launched across the sky. The others realize this is their opening and shout that they should use the chance to get out, leaving Kizaru to Luffy. Atlas announces that she is going to the lower stratum to override the Pacifistas' current objective. When someone asks where she is going, she explains that if they do not change the orders, the second the barrier drops the Pacifistas will fry them with lasers. Vegapunk and the others understand that whoever controls the Pacifista units effectively controls the battle on the island, because no one present has higher command authority over them than the Vegapunks.

Franky stops Atlas and says, "Just a second, I'm coming too!" The group learns that Bonney was knocked down to the lower stratum, and someone asks whether they can confirm if she survived. When they hear she is alive, they are relieved, though they also remember that Kizaru kicked her face-first into the barrier. Franky apologizes for letting that happen to "a strapping young lad like you" and says he will help get her back. Sanji calls from the second floor of Building A and says he wants in on the Bonney rescue mission. He has everything Vegapunk asked him to bring aboard and will head for the back exit, while Jinbe says they should rendezvous there. Their escape plan shifts into a rescue and command override operation.

Down in the Fabriostraterm, Marines sweep the lower level for Jewelry Bonney. They warn each other to stay away from the city center and say she must be close by, hiding anywhere. One Marine reminds the others to be on guard because she can age-warp them, while another asks where that "whippersnapper" ran off to. Bonney, injured and alone, hides nearby as the soldiers close in. The search party then finds Sentomaru lying burned and defeated, and they react to his condition with alarm. Bonney sees him too and cries out, "Sentomaru!!" The page shows how exposed she is after Kizaru's kick: separated from the Straw Hats and Vegapunks, surrounded by Marines, and confronted with the cost of Sentomaru's stand.

Bonney watches the Marines and the wreckage from cover, shaken by Sentomaru's condition and unsure how to escape. Explosions and debris continue to fill the Fabriostraterm as the Navy operation pushes forward. Sentomaru, still alive despite being badly burned, tells her to get out of there because the Marines are coming. Bonney says his name in distress, but she has little time to help him. She thinks through her options and wonders what she should do now, considering whether she can keep hidden until the heat dies down. The page keeps Bonney's fear grounded and immediate: she is not dueling an admiral anymore, just trying to survive a hostile island full of soldiers while an ally lies wounded.

Back in the Labostraterm, Roronoa Zoro and Rob Lucci clash violently, Lucci in his awakened leopard form and Zoro holding him off with swords. From above, Luffy spots the fight and calls, "Ohh, Zoro!! You guys are really going at it down there!" Someone asks whether Zoro needs a hand, but Zoro tells them, "You just focus on Kizaru!" Lucci tries to needle him by saying that if this is the best Zoro has, it should not fall to the captain to handle him. Zoro refuses to be baited and makes it clear he understands the hierarchy of threats: Luffy must keep the admiral busy, and he will handle Lucci himself. Their blades and claws grind together as the battle between an emperor's crew and CP0 continues below the main chase.

Lucci laughs, "Heh heh... is that so?" and Zoro answers that if Lucci cannot reach Luffy, then the head of an emperor's No. 2 is still a decent consolation prize. The two fighters continue trading heavy blows, showing that Zoro has accepted Lucci as his responsibility and will not let him interfere with the escape. Meanwhile, far away from the Labophase, the spinning Kizaru streaks through the air after being thrown by Luffy. He notes that at this rate he will take a dip in the ocean, then regains control of his light-speed movement instead of crashing. The page cuts between two fronts: Zoro containing Lucci on the ground and Kizaru calmly recovering from Luffy's absurd throw before returning to the hunt.

Kizaru stops his flight above the sea and turns his momentum back toward Egghead. With his body shining, he raises his hands and unleashes "Yasakani no Magatama!!" A flood of light bullets pours across the sky, streaking from his position toward the island and Luffy's location. The attack fills the page with bright lines and explosive pressure, making it clear that simply throwing Kizaru away is not enough to remove him from the battle. Luffy has bought a brief opening for the others, but Kizaru's range and control over light let him counter from afar. The admiral is already changing the rhythm of the fight from a comic grab-and-throw into a long-distance bombardment.

Luffy watches Kizaru's light barrage approach and asks, "What the?!" The attack does not simply strike as scattered beams; it resolves into a swarm of Kizaru-like light figures surrounding him. The glowing copies hang in the air with the admiral's outline and expression, turning the sky around Luffy into a ring of possible attackers. Luffy's cartoonish confidence is briefly replaced by confusion as he tries to understand whether he is looking at afterimages, holograms, clones, or the real admiral. The page shows Kizaru using his Devil Fruit in a more deceptive way than straightforward speed, forcing Luffy to defend against a formation of light bodies rather than a single opponent he can grab.

The light copies close in, and Kizaru manifests a glowing sword while calling "Ame no Murakumo!" Luffy prepares a counter with "Gum Gum..." as the admiral's doubles swing at him from every direction. Luffy answers with "Booming Dawn Whip!!" and lashes out through the formation, smashing apart the light bodies. Even after knocking them away, he wonders whether they are more Holo-Holo ghosts and asks which one is the real one. A translator note explains that Luffy seems to be conflating holograms he encountered on Egghead with the Horo Horo no Mi ghosts. The page keeps the fight playful and dangerous at once: Luffy's attack is powerful, but Kizaru's light tricks keep him uncertain about where the true threat is.

Luffy follows up with "Booming Dawn Stamp!!" and drives a giant foot through the Kizaru copies, sending light bodies and debris scattering. He wonders aloud, "Did I take out the real one too?" but immediately sees that Kizaru is not among them and says, "No way, he's back there?!" The real admiral has slipped past the decoys and used the confusion to move toward Vegapunk instead of continuing to fight Luffy head-on. Luffy reacts with a startled "Hm?" as an explosion goes off behind him, realizing that the opponent he is supposed to pin down has escaped his reach. The page reveals the purpose of Kizaru's clones: not to beat Gear 5 directly, but to distract him long enough for the assassination mission to continue.

The real Kizaru reaches the Vegatank 8 as Vegapunk's group moves out. Someone screams, "Gyaaaah, he got me!!" while another calls, "Gwush... Luffy!!" Luffy, realizing he was tricked, shouts "Huh?!" Kizaru notices that something is strange and says Vegapunk is not here, because the Stella has already left the immediate area. Inside the Vegatank, Atlas drives with determined focus while Vegapunk yells at her that she looks like she is going to burst a blood vessel. Atlas snaps at the Marines, calling them no-good marine brigands and telling them not to lay a finger on Bonney. Vegapunk, moved by the danger to her, declares he will be damned if he stands by while a little girl gets murdered. He yells, "Hang on, Bonney!! I'm coming!!"

Luffy warns, "Apple Gramps!! Don't go down!! You're gonna get yourself killed!!" but Vegapunk's group continues the descent. Kizaru appears in their path and asks, "And where do you think... you're going, Vegapunk?" Before he can stop them, Luffy stretches in from behind and catches him with a quick "Wip!" sending the admiral flying off course. The Vegatank 8 drops toward the lower level while Vegapunk shouts that he is tagging along. From the control side, someone calls to Lilith to use General Franky to get the ship out of danger, and Lilith answers, "Okey dokey!!" The action splits again: Luffy has to keep grabbing Kizaru away from Vegapunk, while the escape team scrambles to move the Sunny and rescue Bonney before the Navy tightens its grip.

At Egghead Port, the Navy receives an urgent update: Dr. Vegapunk is attempting to leave the Labostraterm and head down. The Marines immediately report the movement, confused by the sudden shift. Another Marine explains that he is standing by to deactivate the Frontier Dome so it can be resealed in a jiffy right after the fugitives pass. Vegapunk's override command reaches the Pacifista units, and Atlas orders, "All Pacifista units, come in!!" A Marine recognizes it as an override command from Vegapunk, and the command is accepted with a "Bzzt." Luffy then shouts the new mission: "Your new mission is... to eradicate every last Marine on the island!!" The chapter ends as command of the Pacifistas flips, turning the Navy's own weapons against the occupying force.
