Chapter 642 summary
A few minutes earlier in the Ocean Forest, whales and fishes swim away as soldiers note the unusual phenomenon and suspect something is happening on the island. The Minister of the Left orders all citizens to evacuate Fishman Island while people react to news of Noah's near-collision and Shirahoshi's intervention. Neptune refuses to leave the Ocean Forest until the princes arrive and then heads to Gyoncord Plaza, where the defeated New Fishman Pirates lie scattered. Neptune grasps the situation and orders his army to aid Jinbe and the Straw Hats while civilians evacuate. Hody's remaining forces advance with the slave tank as Wadatsumi inflates massively with Mega-Nyuudou and crushes parts of the battlefield. Robin moves to free the human slaves while Franky battles Ikaros Much with a fireball attack that backfires. Chopper in his controlled monster form blocks Dosun's hammer strike and reflects on his form. Hyouzou charges Zoro with multiple blades, but Zoro states that the opponent is not even enough to keep him from getting bored.
