Kaido and Yamato are still in battle. Kaido mentions that Yamato's Devil Fruit, a rare mythical wolf, is a Wano guardian spirit. He's still insisting that Yamato must rule over Wano on his behalf. Yamato refuses and says that he'll open the country's borders.

Black Maria used an illusion technique on Robin, with her subordinates posing as Robin's loved ones. It didn't work on Robin and she slapped the subordinates unconscious. The rest of the subordinates chase after her and Brook.

Black Maria catches up to them. With her flaming Wanyudo weapon, she sets the floor on fire—but Brook successfully freezes her weapon. Brook leaves Robin to handle Black Maria while he handles the subordinates.

Luffy is still pretty weak. Momonosuke is crying over Kinemon and Kiku—Luffy tells him to worry about it later once things are finished. Luffy also tells him that he has to transform back into a dragon and fly him back up to Onigashima.

There's a lot of new techniques from Robin. One of them changes her giant form into a demon.

Luffy is slowly recovering and eating meat. Momonosuke asks Shinobu to use one of her techniques on him. He was referring to her technique that can turn someone into an adult—however, the process is irreversible.
