After Squard received a gift that let him detect lies, Lin Qi began revealing the fourth regret, prompting a troubled Garp to stop in a Marine Headquarters corridor.

• The Sky Screen named Squard as the fifth regret and revealed that he would stab Whitebeard after believing Akainu's lie that Whitebeard had sold out his allied captains.

The Sky Screen revealed that Garp’s greatest regret was failing to save Ace, failing to stop Dragon from taking the path of revolution, and watching his family turn away from the flag he served. The first part of Garp’s regret analysis ended with a promise to reveal what he experienced during the thirty seconds on the Execution Platform.

• The Sky Screen named Monkey D. Garp as regret number four and asked what his greatest regret was.

• The Sky Screen named Whitebeard’s greatest regret and showed his lifelong desire to have a family, including his early conversations with children and Marco.

• Iceburg connected the wind that saved Luffy in Loguetown to Dragon’s Storm-Storm Fruit, while Luffy reflected that Dragon had never called him by name.
• The Sky Screen asked about Dragon’s greatest regret, and it revealed that the correct answer was all of the listed choices.

• The Sky Screen revealed that Dragon returned near the house three times within forty-eight hours, then sat beneath a tree until dawn after his final attempt.
• The Sky Screen moved ahead two years to Loguetown.

The Sky Screen revealed Dragon’s silent longing for Luffy through memories of Loguetown, the Paramount War, and a photograph he had treasured for years. After seeing the footage, Luffy said he wanted Dragon to call his name aloud if they met again, as the Sky Screen began announcing Dragon’s reward.

• The Sky Screen began determining a reward for Dragon based on his regret over twenty years of silence and absence.

• Lin Qi chose a special reward: a holographic broadcast of Roger’s final mental record for everyone he had not thanked.

After his projection vanished, Lin Qi ended the regrets series and announced a new countdown about hidden truths, beginning with an erased kingdom and forbidden century.

• Lin Qi started a new countdown series about the pirate world's hidden truths, previewing a revelation about a kingdom erased by the World Government and a forbidden hundred-year period.

The Sky Screen revealed that the World Government’s founders conquered and erased the Great Kingdom during the Void Century, then showed its advanced, egalitarian society and its final king carving the truth into stone. Rayleigh connected the king’s inherited letter, D, to what Roger learned at Laugh Tale as the screen previewed the king’s final decision.

• Lin Qi published a question asking what caused the Great Kingdom’s destruction, and the Five Elders feared that option C would expose the World Government’s founding as conquest.
• After no one answered, the Sky Screen identified C as correct and revealed that twenty kingdoms destroyed the Great Kingdom, founded the World Government, and burned records to erase the Void Century.
• Cobra realized that his ancestor, one of the twenty kings, had stayed behind in Alabasta because he knew what the others had done.

• The Sky Screen revealed that the last king’s letter, passed down through his bloodline, was D, and Rayleigh said Roger had learned what D meant at Laugh Tale.
• Luffy touched his chest as the Sky Screen previewed the last king’s final decision and the final passage he carved on the tablet.

The Sky Screen revealed how the Great Kingdom's last king divided the Poneglyphs and carved his final message before walking out to face the allied forces. After exposing the World Government's origins and the D. Clan's inheritance, the Sky Screen named Nico Robin as the reward recipient and announced that it would reveal the Ancient Weapons' true purpose.

• The Great Kingdom's last king ordered the craftsmen to distribute information about the Ancient Weapons and the kingdom's history, then kept one tablet for himself.
• As the city fell, the king carved the Great Kingdom's defeat, its ideals, and a plea to share its history onto the final Poneglyph, signing it with D.
