Chapter 636 summary
Hody's army watches as the Kraken Surume sides with the Straw Hats after Luffy orders it to protect Shirahoshi. Franky's vehicle falls into Daruma's pitfall trap, but Franky then docks the KuroSai FR-U #4 with the Brachio Tank #5 to form the Iron Pirate General Franky. General Franky fights the enemies with attacks including General Look-Out-Below and Franky Cannon. Nami uses her Sorcery Clima-Tact to strike Wadatsumi with Gust Sword and Take-Javelin. Chopper emerges in Horn Point to battle Daruma underground and explains that he can now access six of his forms without a Rumble Ball. Hody orders Surume to crush Shirahoshi while threatening the Kraken's brothers, prompting Luffy to offer help and then charge forward. Luffy slips through the officers using Haki and punches Hody directly, declaring that he is now really mad. The chapter closes as Neptune and the others react to the ancient ship Noah moving over Fishman Island.
