Chapter 983 summary
Big Mom towers over the waves near Onigashima as the Big Mom Pirates approach on a ship and declare their intent to stand alone. Outside a brothel on the island the alliance members react in alarm to Big Mom chasing Nami and the others after she damages their tank. Inside the brothel Big Mom demands Zeus return to her while Nami and the women decide to abandon the prostitutes and search for Momonosuke after spotting Sanji. At the Skull Dome stage Orochi hangs in chains before the cheering crowd and reveals the bound Momonosuke as the son of Kozuki Oden. In the keep Zoro faces repeated attacks from Gifters who boast of their numbers and urge him to kneel before Kaido. A winged woman and masked fighter press Zoro to surrender as the horned man laughs and declares them all former pirate king aspirants.
