Chapter 389 summary
Luffy's shout reaches the Tower of Justice, where Spandam learns that Strawhat Luffy has arrived on the courthouse roof after defeating Blueno. Luffy eats a bento to restore his strength and shouts across the gap while Spandam orders CP9 to annihilate the entire Straw Hat crew. Spandam pressures Robin about the rescue attempt and has her and Franky moved toward the Gates of Justice. Franky triggers a self-destructive explosion that breaks their chains and carries them to a balcony overlooking the battlefield. Luffy calls to Robin and prepares to jump, but she rejects the rescue and declares that she wants to die. Spandam laughs at the collapse of the attempt while Franky strikes him down. CP9 members assemble on the scene as Spandam notes that the Straw Hats are beginning to fall apart.
