Chapter 360 summary
At Blue Station, government officials escort a silent Robin onto the final Sea Train bound for Enies Lobby while Sanji watches from the crowd in disguise. CP9 members including Lucci, Kaku, Kalifa, and Blueno board with the captured Franky and Usopp as Spandam taunts them. The train prepares for departure amid warnings of the approaching Aqua Laguna, forcing an earlier schedule. At Galley-La headquarters, Nami and Chopper learn Robin does not hate the crew and rally to rescue her before the train leaves. Iceburg explains the tight deadline and the workers, led by Paulie, shift from suspicion to aiding the search through the flooded streets on yagara. Nami races toward the station calling for Robin while the others shout for Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp. Sanji reaches the platform alone as the train begins to move. Luffy remains trapped between buildings, hearing the calls but unable to free himself as the final train departs.
