The chapter title page displays the words Chapter 579: "A FEW SECONDS OF COURAGE". Below the title, three figures stand together outdoors under a cloudy sky. On the left, a smiling woman with long light hair wears an elegant flowing dress and holds a small object near her chest. In the center looms a massive, round creature with a wide striped mouth full of sharp teeth, wearing a large hat and a spiked collar. On the right stands another woman with messy light hair in a tattered dress, her expression neutral. Small debris and leaves scatter around them.

A marine shouts in alarm, "HE ESCAPED FROM SHABONDY ARCHIPELAGO AFTER THE TENRYUUBITO INCIDENT." Trafalgar Law appears with a fierce expression, gripping a nodachi, as another marine yells, "IT'S TRAFALGAR LAW!!! A ROOKIE FROM NORTH BLUE!!!" The scene shifts to a chaotic sea battle where a submarine surfaces near Marineford. A voice declares, "IT LOOKS LIKE REINFORCEMENTS HAVE ARRIVED ON THE SUBMARINE!!!" and "HE'S AN ACCOMPLICE OF STRAWHAT LUFFY!!!" Below, Law's crew reacts urgently. Law commands, "BRING BOTH OF THEM OVER HERE!!!" while a crewmate shouts "HURRY!!!" An enemy demands, "WHO THE HELL ARE YOUI"

Explosions rock the battlefield with massive sound effects "ドゴォン!!" and "ドシャア!!". A marine reports, "THE BATTLESHIPS ARE COMING BACK AROUND FROM THE SEA!" and "CAPTAIN LAW!!" Law's crew warns, "MORE MARINES ARE COMING!!!" and "THERE WAS AN UNDERGROUND PASSAGE-WAY!!!" Orders ring out: "AND TO TAKE DOWN THE BLACKBEARD PIRATES!!!" "CALLING ALL MARINES!!! SPLIT UP TO PURSUE THE WHITEBEARD PIRATES," Law shouts "ゴォォォォォォ!!!" as chaos erupts. A massive impact "ズドン!!" sends fighters flying. Someone grunts "HM!!I" amid the rubble and smoke.

Blackbeard laughs maniacally "ZEHAHA-HAHAHA-HA!!!" while taunting Sengoku and Garp. A subordinate yells, "HEY, CAPTAIN!! IF YOU'RE TOO RECKLESS, WE WON'T HAVE ANY PLACE TO STAND!!!" but Blackbeard replies he still can't control it. He mocks, "YOUR AGE IS OVER, SEAGOKU THE BUDDHAI! GARP, THE HEROI! CAN YOU STOP MEI!I" The island shakes violently with huge sound effects "ゴゴゴゴゴゴ" and "ズズズズン!!!" as a tsunami approaches. Onlookers panic: "WHAT'S BLACKBEARD GOING TO DO NEXT!I" "IT'S SO CREEPY....." "I'M SCARED....." An emergency broadcast warns of a tsunami and earthquake near Marineford. Blackbeard continues laughing "ZEHAHAHAHA!" as massive waves crash, "WAAAA-AAAHHH!!!" and "GYAAAHH, THE WAVES!!!"

Panic erupts across the shattered plaza as a voice shouts orders: "EVACUATE TO THE NORTH PART OF THE ARCHIPELAGO, EVERYONE!! GET TO HIGH GROUNDS NEAR GROVES 40 TO 50!!!" Another commands, "WAIT, EVERYONE!! CALM DOWN! IN ORDER NOT TO CAUSE A PANIC..." Massive fissures split the ground while Pacifistas advance. A massive explosion rocks the area with "UWAA- AH!!!" and "ドゴォォン!!!" A close-up shows a wide-eyed face crossed by impact lines as someone yells, "THE PACIFISTAS HAVE CROSSED OVER THE FISSURES IN THE PLAZA!!!"

A dark-haired woman clutches her head, thinking, "Inside my head... the voices... are disappearing, one by one!!!" Nearby, someone gasps, "Haa... haa... I don't know!!!! It's sad!!!!" and another shouts, "HEY, COBY!! WHAT'S THE MATTER!!I" A marine yells, "LEAVE HIM!! WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BATTLE!!!" while another urges, "HANG IN THERE!! YOU'LL LIVE IF YOU GET TREATED!!" The woman stares forward and declares, "THEY STILL WANT TO FIGHT!!! THE MARINES HAVE ACHIEVED THEIR OBJECTIVE, BUT THEY'RE FIGHTING EVEN HARDER NOW!!!" A marine captain roars, "CRUSH EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!! GO AFTER THE PIRATES!!!" She questions, "'JUSTICE'... 'EVIL'... WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE IN HEREI!!"

A bloodied, grinning man with a top hat laughs wildly amid the chaos. A massive figure engulfed in black smoke and flames screams, "BUT THEY THIRST FOR MORE!!! I WON'T FORGIVE THE EVILS OF PIRACY!!! THEY'VE WON..." A man with sunglasses remarks, "STRAWHAT LUFFY!!I" while another asks, "WHY DON'T YOU JUST DROP" and a voice cries, "IT'S KIZARU!!" The giant bellows, "NOBODY CAN STOP ME NOW!!! I'LL DESTROY EVERYTHING!!! ENGULF EVERYTHING!!!" Explosions and debris fill the battlefield as fighters clash.

A massive explosion rocks the battlefield as debris and smoke fill the air near the towering Marineford structure. A large ship looms in the background while fighters clash amid the chaos. Someone shouts, "STOP IT!!!" A cloaked figure stands amid the rubble as another yells, "!!I" In close-up panels, Trafalgar Law stares with a serious expression while a marine with sunglasses grins. Coby appears wide-eyed and terrified, shouting "COBY!!!" as impacts and smoke erupt around him. An unseen voice questions, "A MARINE!I" while another reacts with "Uuh!!" and "...I"

Amid the raging battle, voices cry out desperately. "WE CAN STOP FIGHTING NOW!!!" and "JUST STOP ALREADY!!!" A cloaked figure with a gun reacts as someone asks, "WHO'S THAT...I" and another mutters "SOMEONE..." In a massive close-up, a bloodied and tear-streaked Coby screams with all his might, "THE SOLDIERS ARE DYING! ONE BY ONE!! THEY HAVE FAMILIES WAITING FOR THEIR RETURN!!! STOP THROWING LIVES AWAY!!!"

Marines argue across the battlefield. "WE'RE FIGHTING A POINTLESS BATTLE!!!" "WE'RE CHASING PIRATES WHO DON'T WANT TO FIGHT!!!" "WE'VE DONE WHAT WE CAME TO DO!!!" Coby questions the logic: "THEN ISN'T IT AS IF THE SOLDIERS WHO FALL NOW... WE'RE ABANDONING THE SOLDIERS WHO COULD BE SAVED!!! WE'RE SACRIFICING EVEN MORE LIVES!!!" He breaks down further, shouting "ARE WE JUST IDIOTS!!I" and "OH GOD, I'M GOING TO DIE!! BUT I'VE SAID WHAT I NEEDED TO SAY!!! AAA-AHH-HH!!!" Other marines react with shock: "COBY...!I" "THE MARINES HAVE NO NEED FOR SOLDIERS WHO DON'T BELIEVE IN JUSTICE!!!" "YOU'VE WASTED... A FEW SECONDS..." "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!!!!" and "I HAVE NO REGRETS!!!"

Shocked marines react as Coby's words hang in the air. One marine says, "YOU DID WELL... YOUNG MARINE." The narration box reads, "THE FEW SECONDS OF COURAGE YOU WERE PREPARED TO GIVE YOUR LIFE FOR... WHETHER FOR GOOD OR FOR BAD... HAVE GREATLY CHANGED THE FATE OF THE WORLD!!" In a dramatic splash, a swordsman clashes violently with a powerful marine whose hat reads "MARINE," sending debris flying. Nearby figures shout "HURRY!" "TAKE HIM INSIDE!!!" and "..." while others react with "EHI" and "!!!!" The large impact text "LE" dominates the center as the clash intensifies.

Ben Beckman appears on the left, cigarette in mouth, warning with a raised hand, "OOHH, WHOA, WHOA THERE." In the center, he points sharply and shouts, "HOLD IT RIGHT THERE, KIZARU!!" while Kizaru smirks on the right. Below, the battlefield erupts in panic as Marines and pirates react to a massive ship approaching the plaza. Voices cry out, "THAT SHIP...!!! THAT'S...!!!" and "GO!!" while another exclaims, "EHH...!!I" The ship bears the unmistakable Jolly Roger of a skull with crossed bones and a wide grin. A Marine yells in terror, "WHY IS IT HERE!!I ONE OF THE FOUR EMPERORS IS HERE!!!"

Chaos spreads across the battlefield as Marines tumble and soldiers point in shock. A massive voice declares, "IT'S RED HAIR SHANKS!!!" accompanied by the sound effect "ズシャアアアアア!!!" Shanks stands tall in a large panel, gripping his straw hat with both hands, his expression stern. He declares firmly, "I CAME TO END THE WAR!!!"

Chapter 579 summary

The Marines spot Trafalgar Law's submarine surfacing and identify him as an accomplice of Strawhat Luffy. Law orders his crew to bring Luffy and Jimbei aboard while the battlefield erupts with renewed fighting as Blackbeard unleashes Whitebeard's power and creates massive waves. At Sabaody Archipelago an emergency broadcast warns of an approaching tsunami. Pacifistas advance across the plaza and fire on the pirates as Coby collapses in horror at the vanishing lives around him. Buggy passes Luffy and Jimbei to Law's crew on the submarine deck, but Kizaru targets the vessel. Coby rushes forward and screams for the fighting to stop, declaring the battle pointless now that the Marines have achieved their goal. Akainu advances to strike him down, but Shanks blocks the blow with his sword and tells Coby that his few seconds of courage have changed the world's fate. Ben Beckman halts Kizaru as the Red Force arrives, and Shanks picks up Luffy's fallen straw hat before declaring that he has come to end the war.
