Chapter 508 summary
In a bowling alley a long-haired figure hurls a bowling ball that triggers a massive black smoke explosion while onlookers react in shock and balls labeled 100 and 001 scatter across the lane. The scene shifts to a stone fortress under attack where soldiers scramble to ready cannons, open gates, and charge with cavalry as orders ring out amid cannon fire and explosions. A tall figure in a dark coat adorned with many faces stands amid the blasts smoking a pipe while Marines panic at the sight of something inside his body. Capone Bege remains still as horses and soldiers pour violently from his stomach in a stampede, and he declares that his military power is greater. At Grove 27 harbor people flee in terror upon learning that Kizaru has arrived. A massive figure grips a glowing beam of light as a bloodied man with a scar notes he was watching for the admiral and another remarks that escape will not be easy near Marine headquarters.
