A Race Against Time to Uncover the Truth and Defeat Powerful Foes

In the Starting scene from the Chapter, Stussy informs Sentomaru that Admiral Kizaru is on his way to Egghead, and that CP0 should wait for his arrival after taking out Dr. Vegapunk and his Satellites. Sentomaru acknowledges the gravity of the situation, and Stussy explains that this event may be even bigger than the destruction of Ohara. This is because Vegapunk continued the research of Ohara, and Egghead has the ability to defend itself, which Ohara did not. Stussy emphasizes that communication has been cut off in the Labophase and asks Sentomaru to contact her if anything unexpected happens. Sentomaru immediately urges the islanders to flee before the Marines arrive, as they cannot afford to hesitate. This intense scene highlights the high stakes and serious consequences involved in the conflict between the World Government and their enemies.

Franky demands that S-Snake undo the petrification that she inflicted upon him, Lilith, and Usopp. Despite his plea, S-Snake ignores him and turns her attention to Pythagoras. Franky persists and asks who ordered her to do this, but his question goes unanswered. Suddenly, S-Snake stomps on Pythagoras, resulting in a massive explosion. Undeterred, Franky calls out to her again, hoping for a response. 

Meanwhile, on the second floor of Building A, Chopper, Robin, and Atlas are flying around in search of Vegapunk. Robin has deduced that the Seraphim are on a rampage and that someone is trying to fend them off, effectively immobilizing the team. Atlas suggests a lead on the location of the Stella, and the trio follows her lead. On the third floor, Nami attempts to help Edison while Brook decides to embark on a search for Vegapunk. Meanwhile, Sanji is still engaged in a fierce battle with S-Shark. This action-packed scene highlights the intense battle between the protagonists and their foes, as they navigate their way through the enemy stronghold in a race against time.

As the battle rages on, Zoro becomes aware of a concerning fact – the flames of S-Bear and S-Hawk do not seem to be extinguishing. While Luffy realizes that S-Hawk has left the room, Lucci reveals his strategy of targeting weaker crew members first, hoping to sow confusion and weaken their morale. In response, Zoro takes off in pursuit of S-Hawk, enlisting Kaku’s help. Luffy continues his struggle against S-Bear, but Lucci warns him that this opponent cannot be defeated through sheer force alone. The tension mounts as the crew faces ever more formidable foes, and their determination is put to the ultimate test.

Several months ago, a shadowy figure tipped off the Five Elders to the fact that Dr. Vegapunk was delving into the forbidden knowledge of the Void Century. The government dispatched CP5 to investigate, but they returned empty-handed, and the ship they departed on vanished without a trace. CP7 and CP8 were sent next, only to suffer the same fate. Convinced of Vegapunk’s betrayal, the Five Elders authorized his assassination, and CP0 was assigned to carry out the mission. 

One of the elders even went in person, anticipating a fierce retaliation. As the tension mounted, the Marines mobilized for an all-out war. However, the sudden appearance of the Straw Hat Pirates has thrown a wrench into the government’s plans, leaving them uncertain and anxious about the outcome of these events. Regardless, one thing is certain – the revelations that may emerge from this conspiracy will rock the very foundations of the world.

The hidden laboratory is suddenly infiltrated by a dark figure who Vegapunk demands to identify themselves. It turns out to be York, a woman who harbors a sinister desire to become a World Noble. Vegapunk is outraged and questions her sanity, reminding her of the atrocities she had witnessed at Mary Geoise. However, York is unfazed and mocks Vegapunk, claiming that she knows better than him and that his ally, Shaka, is now dead. York then declares that the world needs only one Vegapunk, and that she is the one who deserves that title.
