One Piece Chapter 860: The Party Begins at 10

On Whole Cake Island's east bay, a scarred man growls, "SORRY, MAN. TRY TO GET FOUND BY SOMEONE SOONER RATHER THAN LATER." Pekoms roars in protest, "WHERE IN THE HELL ARE YOU LOT PLANNING ON GOINGI GAOH!" A sign reads WHOLE CAKE ISLAND, EAST BAY. In the larger scene aboard a ship, a voice declares, "ALL WHO LEAVE, DIE!" THAT'S BIG MOM'S MODUS OPERANDI, ISN'T IT! Someone retorts, "OF COURSE NOT! WE'D BE IN DEEP WATER IF SHE DID!" Another shouts, "WHAT THE HELLI! DOES MAMA KNOW ABOUT ALL THISI!" Jinbe states, "JINBE WAS GRATEFUL TO YOU, YOU KNOW." Pekoms reacts with shock, "!I" At the bottom, a close-up shows a fish-man exclaiming, "BUT TO KNOW THAT BIG MOM WAS PLANNING HER OWN GERMA ASSASSINATION PLAN... OUR BIG MOM ASSASSINATION PLAN MIGHT NOT GO OFF. IT'S HONESTLY A MIRACLE THAT I WAS ABLE TO HEAR PEKOMS' STORY LIKE THIS!"

Jinbe continues passionately, "AND I CAN'T JUST SIT IDLY BY AND LET THEIR LIVES BE PUT IN DANGER! I'M GOING TO HELP THEM!" A silhouette replies, "IF LUFFY AND THE OTHERS FIND OUT ABOUT THIS, THEY'RE SURE TO TRY SOMETHING CRAZY TO SAVE SANJI." The scarred man declares firmly, "AND BETRAY BIG MOM!" Nearby, a woman with an elaborate hairstyle states, "WHICH MEANS, I AM GOING TO COMMIT FULL-ON MUTINY." In a dramatic panel featuring a roulette wheel marked with numbers and a crown, the scarred man explains, "THERE WERE NUMBERS WRITTEN! EACH NUMBER REPRESENTED THE NUMBER OF CREW MEMBERS THAT'D BE SACRIFICED WITH ME SHOULD THAT NUMBER BE CHOSEN! AT FIRST, I TRIED TO DO THE HONORABLE THING AND INFORM HER OF MY DEPARTURE FACE-TO-FACE. BUT SHE DRAGGED OUT THAT BLASTED ROULETTE WHEEL, AND ON IT... BIG MOM INTENDS HER SETTLEMENT PRICE TO BE MORE THAN JUST MY LIFE ALONE! AN ABSOLUTELY DRACONIAN PUNISHMENT!"

A massive rocky outcrop rises above the sea as a determined voice declares, "THE SECURITY FOR THE REST OF HER TERRITORY WILL BE LIGHT! AND IF SOMETHING HAPPENS AT THAT TEA PARTY, EVERYONE'S ATTENTION WILL BE EVEN MORE FOCUSED ON THE PARTY! AND THERE'S YOUR CHANCE! WHICH IS WHY I WANT YOU ALL TO RUN! ON THE DAY OF THE TEA PARTY, MAMA'S HORS D'OEUVRE INTERCEPTOR SHIPS WILL ALL BE TIED UP ESCORTING GUESTS!" Jinbe stands firm with Aladine and the fish-men crew. Aladine shouts back, "NO YOU DON'T, DAMN IT! YOU'RE GEARING UP TO DIE IF YOU HAVE TO! I CAN TELL!" Jinbe replies calmly, "YEAH. I KNOW." He continues, "WE'RE PREPARED TO DO ALL THAT. I DON'T MIND, JINBE. WE WILL DO WHAT WE CAN TO ENSURE THAT YOU CAN BE FREE." Turning to another crewmate, Jinbe adds, "AND, ALADINE...WHETHER OR NOT I DO THAT IS NOT A QUESTION OF IF. IT'S A QUESTION OF WHEN! LET'S JUST SAY... THAT SOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE, I JOIN THE STRAW HAT PIRATES. I'D INTEND TO USE MY VERY LIFE TO PROTECT MY CAPTAIN, STRAW HAT LUFFY!"

Jinbe tells his crew, "TO PROTECT YOUR OWN LIFE, TOO! OKAYI BUT, AT LEAST TRY TO DO YOUR BEST." The fish-men agree, "FINE. DO AS YOU WISH." and "YES..." as they prepare to depart. One fish-man asks, "YOU'RE WORRIED TOO, AREN'T YOUI ABOUT THE RYUGU KINGDOM." The crew boards their ship and sets sail with cries of "WOAA-ARRGH-HHHH! HURRY! GET READY TO SET SAIL!" and "OI! HOLD IT, YOU BASTARDS!" as the vessel pulls away from the rocky shore. Jinbe watches them go, replying to a final question with, "WE'LL MEET AGAIN, ALIVE! RIGHT, JINBEI!" and "QUIT THAT! WE'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR YEARS, NOW, MAN!" while another voice calls out, "I'M SO SORRY!"

The clock strikes ten as festive music and cries of "IT'S TIME FOR MAMA'S TEA PARTY!" and "IT'S STARTING!" echo across Whole Cake Island. The pig-carriage arrives with excited shouts of "HERE COME THE BIG GUESTS! THE PIG-CARRIAGE'S ARRIVED!" and "BETTER HURRY! THEY ARE LATE, INDEED. WILL THEY MAKE IT IN TIMEI" Inside Whole Cake Chateau, Reiju confronts Sanji, who is bound in chains. She asks, "DOESN'T MATTER. YOU LOT WERE HAVING A BLAST TILL LATE ANYWAY, RIGHTI WHERE WERE YOU, REIJUI INSIDE WHOLE CAKE CHATEAU." Sanji retorts, "I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO HAVE THEM CHANGE MY ROOM IF I WISH, NOI LET'S GO. APPARENTLY THEY'RE HOLDING THE CEREMONY ON THE ROOF. QUIT INTERFERIN' IN THE BUSINESS OF AN ADULT, IDIOT." Pudding appears in a thought bubble as Sanji wonders, "WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, SANJII! YOU KNOW FULL WELL WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW! THE BRIDE AND GROOM ARE BOTH GETTING READY AS WE SPEAK. SANJI HASN'T RUN AWAY, HAS HEI"

Underworld VIPs gather for the wedding. Morgans, President of the World Economic Times, declares, "MY, MY, I'M SO GLAD TO HAVE BEEN INVITED FOR ALL THIS!" while Du Feld, the Black Market King, laughs, "GUGIGUGI! YOU STINK OF BLOOD!" Stussy questions him, "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE, YOU MORTICIANI YOU'RE A NITPICKY MAN, YOU ARE! SHUSH!" and "ARE MORTICIANS NOT ALLOWED TO CELEBRATE WEDDINGSI" Morgans replies, "INDEED INDEED INDEED INDEED! NO NEED TO SHOUT THIS NEWS!" as he notes, "BUT THIS NEWS IS WELL KNOWN IN THE UNDERWORLD! IT'S QUITE OLD!" and "THIS MARRIAGE IS BIG NEWS! THE GERMA AND MY COMPANY GO WAY BACK!" Other guests include the Shipping Magnate "Deep Ocean Current" Umit, Storage Industry Titan "The Concealer" Giberson, Great Mortician Drug Peclo, and Stussy of the Pleasure Quarter. The crowd buzzes with anticipation as the ceremony approaches.

A magnificent candy escalator spirals upward inside the castle as excited guests marvel at the edible architecture. "WHOA! AWESOME!" "NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I SEE IT, THIS CANDYWORK IS ART!" "THIS IS WONDERFUL!" cries one visitor. Perospero, dressed in a polka-dot outfit and tall hat, waves his candy cane staff and greets the arriving emperors of the underworld. "NOW, NOW, WELCOME!" he says cheerfully. "EMPERORS OF THE UNDERWORLD! WE MIGHT BE A BIT LATE IF WE TRY TO GO THROUGH THE CASTLE. PROSPERO!" A small group of late arrivals is urged forward. "MAMA HATES LATECOMERS, YOU KNOW. THANK YOU. LET US HURRY. YOU THREE ARE THE LAST GUESTS!" Perospero then turns to his subordinates. "SHALL WE SEND THEM ON THEIR WAYI LIKE THIS!" The candy structure glows and swirls dramatically as the guests ascend.

Chaos erupts as the underworld figures argue and react to past events. Organ-Dealer Jigra rants, "AND THAT'S WHAT I WROTE IN MY LETTER BACK TO BIG MOM! AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT SHE SENT MEI!" while flashbacks show gunfire and a funeral. "I HAD TO ATTEND MY MOTHER'S FUNERAL! BUT I SIMPLY COULDN'T ATTEND!" another guest exclaims. "I'M HERE TO GET REVENGE!" "THEN HE'D HAVE FIRED. 'BANG BANG!' AND TWO OF YOUR SUBORDINATES WOULD HAVE BEEN SHOT DEAD." Perospero smiles and urges the crowd onward. "IN THREE MINUTES, YOU CAN LICK THE CANDY COASTER TOO! PLAY NICE, KIDDIES!" "YAAAY!" the guests cheer as they surge forward. A guard at the gate refuses entry. "IS BIG MOM ALREADY INSIDEI! I'M SORRY, SIR, BUT WE SIMPLY CAN'T HAVE THAT. OPEN THE GATES! I WON'T SUBMIT TO THE BODY CHECK!" A sign reads "BEFORE THE PARTY HALL."

Charlotte Dogtooth (Katakuri) sits with his legs crossed, bounty poster visible: "1 BILLION 57 MILLION BELLY BOUNTY." He speaks calmly to Bege. "I THREW ONE OF MY JELLYBEANS AT HIM. TELL ME, WAS THAT MISTAKEN, ROOK BEGEI SO, BEFORE ALL THAT HAPPENED, TELL MAMA THAT THIS WAS MY DECISION. YOU WILL NOW REPLY 'I SEE... THAT'S FINE, THEN.'" Bege replies, "I SEE... THAT'S FINE, THEN." A narration box notes Dogtooth's advanced Observation Haki: "HE TRAINED HIS OBSERVATION HAKI SO MUCH THAT APPARENTLY HE CAN SEE A BIT INTO THE FUTURE... A MONSTER WITH A 1 BILLION-PLUS BOUNTY! OF ALL THE PEOPLE AT THIS BLASTED PARTY, THIS GUY'S THE MOST TROUBLE..."

Inside the party hall, guests react with delight and terror to the bizarre offerings. "KYAA-AAAH!" "GYAA AAAHA HAHA!" "WOW! WHAT A FRAGRANCE! DOOO OOOR~" "NOW, COME INSIDE!" A server offers drinks. "A GLASS OF THE GIRAFFE, PLEASE." "SURE THING. I'LL WRING THAT OUT FOR YOU RIGHT NOW." "A BEAUTIFUL MAIDEN THAT STABBED 100 MEN," "GIRAFFE THAT CRIES STRANGELY," and "LAVA FROM THE MAURI VOLCANO" are listed among the menu items. "OH, IT'S BIG MOM! IT'S ALMOST TIME!" Big Mom appears at the top of the stairs as the crowd cheers. "THE TASTE AND MOUTHFEEL ARE QUITE WONDERFUL, TOO! THIS IS AMAZING!" "GYAAH-HAHA! KYAAA-AAHHH!"

Big Mom towers at the center of the grand hall with arms flung wide, shouting with glee, "LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT! AND NOW YOUR LEFT!" and "THANK YOU FOR COMING FROM NEAR AND FAR!" A massive floating head-shaped structure looms behind her as sweets, cakes, and drinks rain down everywhere. "EVERY-ONE," she continues, "EVERYTHING YOU SEE IS A SWEET TREAT! EAT AND DRINK TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT!" Guests in fancy attire fill the room, raising glasses while candy and balloons float through the air. On the far left, a close-up of a wide-mouthed figure yells, "AND BE SURE TO ENJOY!" Below that, Sanji stands with a cigarette, glancing sideways as a voice declares, "ENJOY EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS HERE TODAY!" A large narration box reads, "FINALLY, THE PARTY BEGINS! WHOSE SCENARIO WILL WIN OUTI!" while dramatic sound effects explode across the bottom: "どん!!" and "くぅ!!" The page ends with the official stamp "ONE PIECE CH.860 END."
