Chapter 478 summary
Only three Straw Hats remain standing before Oars and Moria. Nami and Usopp despair at the ruined battlefield until Usopp creates an opening by baiting Oars with a fake hammer. Zoro closes in and repeatedly slashes Oars's damaged right arm with Santou-Ryuu techniques, carving deep cuts into the frostbitten joint. Usopp then hurls the last of Brook's salt into Oars's mouth, but Moria's shadow catches the sack and hurls Usopp away. Moria orders Oars to stomp Usopp and Nami into the rubble while the rest of the crew lies unconscious. Nightmare Luffy appears beneath Oars's foot and stops the giant's stretching Rifle punch with one hand. He declares that he is the only Luffy and sends Oars flying across the battlefield. Oars crashes headfirst into the ground as Luffy lands nearby.
