Bege's group reaches Dressrosa while continuing to search for Lola, making this cover serial material rather than part of the chapter's main plot. Page 2: Two days before the final battle, the alliance in Amigasa Village counts its strength: "Our forces are 4,200 strong!!" Kinemon praises everyone and orders them to use the time left to prepare before moving toward the rendezvous point. The gathered fighters shout that they will meet at the promised port. At Kuri's Port Itachi, the crews ready the ships. Franky insists they make sure enough ships are ready for 5,000 people, and the workers answer that he can count on them. Page 3: Franky says the Straw Hats will board the Sunny for the final battle and then head to Amigasa Village to meet up with the rest of the crew. The shipwrights thank the helpers, calling them amazing shipwrights, and the fighters cheer that they will crush the Beasts Pirates. Across Wano, more preparations continue. O-Chou is bringing weapons from Ringo, and the rebels gather anything that can serve as armor, including weapons that were once going to be exported. Page 4: The plan depends on timing. If the alliance gathers too early, they will draw unwanted attention, because on the day of the final battle Orochi's procession will march from the Flower Capital to Port Habu before he departs for Onigashima. Once Orochi leaves for the Fire Festival, the capital will begin celebrating and no one will pay attention to the rebels. Still, government officials will remain on the mainland, so the alliance must proceed carefully and avoid alerting Onigashima. In Amigasa Village, the crew tries on armor. Brook proudly says, "This armour is for true warriors!! Yohohoho!!" while others ask if they can really wear it. Page 5: The Straw Hats and allies dress for battle, though not everyone is impressed. Chopper, Usopp, and Luffy beam in samurai armor, and Luffy shouts, "Kaido, huh? Now there's no way... I won't cut him down!!" Brook says he feels much better about their chances, while Robin dryly comments that they look like insects. Sanji refuses armor because it would slow him down, and Zoro says he might need his own outfit to lower his bounty after all. When Zoro draws Enma, Sanji snaps, "Whoa!! You wanna go at it, then?! I'll kill you!" and the others panic over the two of them clashing before the raid. Page 6: The alliance discusses the weather. Orochi mentioned that Onigashima's entrance is always in winter, but Nami explains that the seasons are not very consistent on the mainland either. Wanda says that whether they can use Sulong will depend on luck; the weather conditions matter more than the climate itself. There will definitely be a full moon that night, but if clouds hide it, it will not be much use. Shishilian notes that if all the minks can fight the way Carrot did, it will be a major advantage. Regardless, Wanda says Master Nekomamushi and the Guardians must return in time. Luffy is quiet, troubled by something else. Page 7: Luffy is worried because Big Mom is in Wano, but Jinbe still has not arrived. He remembers leaving Whole Cake Island and entrusting the rear guard to Jinbe. Back then, Jinbe told him, "Don't forget... Jinbe!! I am your captain now!!" and Luffy answered that they would wait for him at Wano, shouting, "You must come!!" In the present, the others reassure him that Jinbe took care of his loose ends so he could join them and that he will be a welcome addition. Luffy insists, "He's definitely alive!!" and "He'll come!!" Page 8: Outside the gates of the Flower Capital, in Ebisu Town, the witching-hour boy had come the previous night. People wonder whether there was news of a robbery in the capital, but instead find money left behind. In Kuri's Okobore Town, hunger and suspicion mingle. The people know the mountain hideout of the thieves and brigands was burned to the ground, and ask why they would continue to steal food from the farm instead of coming for revenge. When Holdem, a Beasts Pirates headliner, appears, some villagers fear the rebels may be responsible for the missing food and cannot give them away, while others do not know what to do. Page 9: O-Tsuru steps forward and takes the burden herself. She tells Holdem, "Just do not lay another hand on these people!! I will show you the way!" Holdem seizes her, and she says he will see whether he follows her, though it will be a long journey. O-Tsuru thinks of Kinemon and refuses...
