• Little Black Cat said Fanxin was holding back because civilians were nearby and began directing them toward the shore so Fanxin could fight without restraint.

• Fanxin defeated Liu Bahu’s subordinates with Diamond Spikes, gave Su Mei Flight Armor, and sent the sisters to safety before returning to watch Ren Fang fight.

Ren Fang defeated the whip-wielding woman with Xiaojin’s help, while Fanxin’s crew settled in after Liu Bahu’s defeat and Banana Island celebrated its freedom.

• A bounty hunter boarded the ship, introduced himself as Aluo, Mountain-Cleaving Blade Aluo, and challenged Fanxin.
• Aluo’s broadsword severed the mast, so Fanxin ordered Little Black Cat to protect the pirate flag as Little Black Cat warned that the ship could not withstand the fight.

Fanxin defeated Aluo by destroying his boat and fighting him underwater, taking his mountain-cleaving blade before returning to his crew. While Little Black Cat repaired the ship, Fanxin and the others gathered fruit trees for Wolf Valley and continued caring for the sleeping sea serpent.

• Fanxin attacked with Diamond Spikes, but Senior Black Man vanished and struck from above; Fanxin sensed him with Soul Perception and dodged the blow that split the ground.

Fanxin fought the retired senior Black Man, whose Haki overwhelmed him until Diamond Beast spikes managed to hurt the old man. After learning Fanxin belonged to the Soul Clan, the senior Black Man stopped fighting and insisted he stay on the island to train, leaving Fanxin and his crew to prepare for a forced period of training.

Ren Fang settled the group inside Wolf Valley while Fanxin learned why the senior Black Man felt responsible for the Soul Clan’s destruction and accepted his offer to teach him Haki. The senior Black Man also ordered Fanxin to drive the Marines from the island, and Fanxin led his crew toward the Marine branch as Major Mengtian prepared to defend it and call for reinforcements.

• Ren Fang moved everyone into Wolf Valley and had Langyue create wolf packs to guard it while Fanxin went to speak with the senior Black Man.

At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku learned that Fanxin might be the surviving Soul Clan child from a past operation, and Akainu urged a Buster Call to eliminate him before he grew stronger.

• Akainu identified Fanxin as the infant who survived the past Soul Clan operation and proposed a Buster Call on Twin Island.

Akainu proposed destroying Twin Island with a Buster Call to kill Fanxin, but Sengoku hesitated over the civilians and the risk of provoking Li Kecheng. He sent Garp toward Twin Island while Fanxin and his companions began training under Senior Black Man.

• Akainu urged Sengoku to order a Buster Call on Twin Island, while Aokiji opposed killing its civilians.

• Senior Black Man sent Little Black Cat to buy breakfast for separate training and ordered the others to run around Twin Island carrying sandbags without using their special abilities.

Fanxin and his crew trained under Black Man Li Kecheng, who tested Little Black Cat’s abilities and urged it to develop Haki and fight for itself. He then moved their combat practice to Wolf Valley’s vast sixth level, where he overwhelmed the crew and deliberately battered Fanxin to provoke the others.

• Fanxin led the crew on a weighted run around Twin Island while Li Kecheng monitored them and Little Black Cat brought him breakfast.

• After Fanxin brought Li Kecheng to Wolf Valley’s sixth level, Li Kecheng began training the crew to dodge and quickly knocked them down.
• Li Kecheng singled out Fanxin, overwhelmed him with speed, and struck him repeatedly while warning that slowness could be fatal.
• Ren Fang and the others rushed to help Fanxin, while Li Kecheng revealed through his actions that he meant to enrage them and awaken their potential.

Li Kecheng pushed Fanxin through a brutal training fight, using his injured companions to provoke him and urging him to rely on his own strength.
