Chapter 387 summary
Spandam stares in shock at reports of chaos spreading through Enies Lobby. Inside the courthouse Baskerville attempts to open a trial, but the giant stone doors are already cut open and the rescue force pours inside. Zoro, Nami, Sanji, and Chopper charge forward while allies hold the entrance; Baskerville attacks with bending swords and forces the group to scatter up the stairs. Sanji clears a path and leads Nami ahead, though Zoro briefly runs the wrong way, and the Franky Family stays behind to block Baskerville so Nami and Chopper can continue. On the courthouse roof Luffy faces Blueno, dodging Shigan, Soru, and Rankyaku while recovering from earlier blows. Luffy explains that defeat by Aokiji made him decide he must grow stronger to protect his nakama, then his body begins releasing steam. Blueno watches in confusion as Luffy declares that all his techniques will evolve one step and activates Gear Second.
