The request reads, "Cover request by Akamine Aoi: Kawamatsu and Hiyori playing with origami." Kozuki Hiyori stands elegantly in a kimono while Kawamatsu smiles beside her, and paper cranes fly around them. This is a reader-request cover illustration rather than main plot action, so it is retained as useful extra material connected to Wano characters. Page 2: On Hachinosu, the Pirate Island in the New World, pirates shout that Captain Koby is on the loose. They panic because if they kill him, Commodore Cross Guild has no claim on them and the bounty is up for grabs. Someone asks how much they get for killing him, and another says Cross Guild is footing the bill. A reward poster reveals Koby has a five-star bounty, with each star worth a chest of booty around 500 million berries; the average Navy captain only fetches a single star. Pirates grin that they have his collection ticket right there and that the payout is huge, turning Koby's escape into a full-island manhunt. Page 3: The giant skull rock of Hachinosu speaks and says it feels a tickling sensation on the left side of its chest, around where the unsold slaves are kept, then realizes they may be escaping too. Pirates panic and ask whether this means open season on all of them, including Koby. Navy HQ Captain Koby, identified as a SWORD member, runs through the town in shackles and tells the escaped prisoners to keep going. He says he will act as a decoy and keep the pirates busy, while grateful prisoners call him a saint and beg him not to lose track of himself. The voice from the rock face appears to belong to Avalo Pizarro, who is monitoring the island itself. Page 4: Koby keeps drawing the pirates after him while the prisoners flee, and the pirates shout not to lose track of him. Shiryu of the Rain, an invisible man who ate the Clear-Clear Fruit, tells Avalo Pizarro that he could catch Koby himself. Pizarro, introduced as the "Corrupt King" and an island man who ate the Island-Island Fruit, laughs that Teach always gets mad at him for causing too much damage. Vasco Shot asks what he has in mind, and someone says "Then can I go?" as huge bubbles and floating objects appear near the town. The page introduces several Blackbeard commanders present on Hachinosu while Koby tries to buy time. Page 5: Vasco Shot, the "Heavy Drinker" and a booze man who ate the Glug-Glug Fruit, proposes burning the town down so there will be nowhere left to run. Pizarro says that is a perfect plan except for one thing: all the fire damage would still anger Teach. Sanjuan Wolf, the Colossal Battleship and a giant who ate the Big-Big Fruit to become a gigantification man, sleeps nearby while the others say they only just patched up the damage from the Rocky Port Incident. Pizarro says Wolf would do a better job than he would, but Vasco's and Wolf's suggestions both threaten to wreck the island more than capture Koby cleanly. Page 6: Koby realizes escaping on foot may be impossible, but says he can at least buy enough time for the others to set sail. Pirates spot him and shout that they found him. The scene cuts to a flashback with Blackbeard asking Koby whether he likes the idea of making Pirate Island a full-fledged nation, government-affiliated so long as he is king. Koby calls the idea delusional and says there is no way the Government would acknowledge a country of criminals. Blackbeard says the "Blackbeard Kingdom" has a nice ring to it, while Koby tells him the Navy and Government would collapse before they bowed to a cowardly terrorist like him. Page 7: Blackbeard says he is not nice enough to trample on someone's dreams and explains that keeping Koby alive gives him a bargaining chip against the Government. Koby interrupts, saying Blackbeard is wasting his time because he is a member of SWORD. The Blackbeard Pirates react in confusion, asking what SWORD is and whether Koby has already given up his Marine code. Former Marine Kuzan explains that SWORD members are Marines who have officially resigned their commissions on paper. That lets them ignore certain command protocols and fight Emperors without authorization, while the Navy can always disavow their actions and cut them loose at any point.
