Chapter 390 summary
The allied force surges toward the courthouse entrance while Yokozuna fights through the defenders. The Guilty Jurors appear and declare everyone guilty as they smash through the towers with heavy weapons. Inside the courtroom Baskerville describes the island's justice system where condemned pirates serve as jurors and never issue a not guilty verdict. Zoro Nami and Chopper fight their way upward through collapsing floors while Yokozuna and the giants hold the entrance against the guards. Across the gap Luffy confronts Robin who says she wants to die and he rejects the idea insisting they will rescue her first. CP9 mocks the exchange from above but Luffy remains defiant as Zoro Sanji and Sogeking arrive on the roof amid further fighting. The Straw Hats gather together facing the Tower of Justice and Luffy demands that Robin make any choice about living or dying only after returning with them.
