Chapter Summaries

The Sky Screen revealed why the World Government sought to exterminate the Buccaneer Tribe: its members could endure extreme pain, remembered a suppressed atrocity, and guarded the Ancient Kingdom’s records and artifacts. The chapter ended as young Kuma’s home was raided and the Sky Screen introduced the official eradication order.

• Bonney, Vegapunk, Sabo, Dragon, and others watched the Sky Screen ask why the World Government marked the Buccaneer Tribe for extermination.
• An old memory showed Kuma’s father telling young Kuma that Buccaneers carried others’ chances to live, even if they fell first.
• The Sky Screen revealed the answer was D: all of the above, explaining the tribe’s endurance, its knowledge of a suppressed event, and its role as Keepers of the Flag for the Ancient Kingdom.
• Bonney learned that Kuma’s people had carried the old flame and told him what the Sky Screen had revealed; Kuma touched her hair and quietly answered, “Mm.”
• In the memory, Kuma’s father gave him a patterned board and urged him to survive and help anyone who needed saving as the people in white began forcing open the door.
• The memory went black, and the Sky Screen displayed the heading “Buccaneer Tribe Eradication Order, official record.”

The Sky Screen revealed that the World Government systematically erased the Buccaneer Tribe because its members could endure pain, preserve forbidden memories, and pass on the Sun Will. Bartholomew Kuma remembered his father’s words, while the World Government’s silence left the truth exposed and the story returned to Kuma’s childhood as his family faced capture.

• Bartholomew Kuma told Bonney he remembered the markings on the board his father gave him, and Bonney begged him to live and remember her.
• Vegapunk explained that the Sky Screen was exposing the people responsible, and Dragon said the actual order-givers would be next.
• The Sky Screen revealed that the Buccaneer Tribe’s erasure was a long-running campaign ordered directly from the Holy Land.
• Saint Saturn warned that the tribe’s connection to the Sun Will must not be broadcast further, while Imu told them to keep watching.
• Kuma’s father told him the World Government feared the tribe’s memories and urged him to pass them on, then sent him away as the white-clad people broke into their home.
• The Sky Screen listed the tribe’s endurance, memories, and hope as grounds for execution, and Kuma realized the Government had wanted to erase even the memory of his people.

The Sky Screen revealed how Kuma’s family and the Buccaneer Tribe scattered their children to preserve them, and how Kuma was hunted even as a boy. The memory ended with Kuma being urged to find people who would share his burden, a promise Bonney connected to their own bond.

• Kuma recalled his mother telling him he had not been abandoned, and an old man explained that Kuma’s father had wanted him to see a bigger sea.
• The Sky Screen revealed that Buccaneer children came of age by leaving home so the tribe’s survivors could scatter and carry on.
• Teenage Kuma said he wanted to find people who needed help, then former World Government operatives arrived to capture him.
• A masked operative said the Buccaneers were dangerous because they remembered, felt pain, protected others, and could inspire people to overturn the rules.
• The old man told Kuma not to hate everyone and promised he would find people willing to carry burdens with him; Bonney recognized that Kuma had found her.

The Sky Screen revealed the World Government’s first draft of its order to eradicate the Buccaneer Tribe, including plans to isolate, experiment on, and erase its survivors. Kuma and Bonney learned more about Kuma’s childhood and his father’s sacrifice as the world watched.

• The Sky Screen displayed the extermination order, which authorized the dispersal and eventual purge of Buccaneer children and survivors.
• An old recording showed the Five Elders ordering the tribe’s members branded as threats and hunted under fabricated accusations.
• Vegapunk explained that Kuma’s modifications were partly tests of how much Buccaneer bodies could endure, and Bonney demanded to know what had been done to her father.
• The recording showed young Kuma learning that the World Government wanted the Buccaneers separated, while adult Kuma explained that obedience would not stop people from being taken.
• The final directive authorized apparent accidents, memory erasure, and evidence destruction, and Kuma revealed that his father had lured the pursuers away so he and other children could escape.

The Sky Screen revealed the Buccaneer Tribe’s destruction and how Bartholomew Kuma escaped with records of his people before later accepting modifications in exchange for Bonney’s safety. As a new memory of Saint Saturn on the night before Kuma’s modification began to load, a masked figure warned that the real danger had only just arrived.

• A memory showed Holy Land forces burning Kuma’s home, destroying his tribe’s records, and driving the survivors into hiding while Kuma escaped carrying old papers and a wooden board.
• Bonney wept as the Sky Screen confirmed that Kuma had been the child survivor, and Kuma said he had refused to forget his people.
• The Sky Screen showed Kuma agreeing to Pacifista Project modifications in exchange for Bonney’s life, the preservation of surviving records, and protection for Sorbet’s survivors.
• Bonney confronted Kuma for choosing to trade away his time without her permission, and Kuma said he had made the choice himself.
• The Sky Screen announced that its next memory would show Saint Saturn on the night before Kuma’s modification, while a masked figure warned Sabo that something was arriving at the door.

The Sky Screen revealed that Saint Saturn had used Bonney’s illness to force Kuma into a deal containing hidden clauses that stripped away his freedom and placed Bonney under surveillance. As a new quiz asked what Kuma had secretly entrusted to Vegapunk, a sealed door beneath Future Island began opening remotely.

• Kuma’s recorded negotiation showed Saint Saturn demanding his body, ability, Lineage Factor, obedience, and memories in exchange for Bonney’s treatment and protection.
• The public quiz revealed that Saturn’s hidden terms included erasing Kuma’s personality, extracting the Buccaneer Lineage Factor, and retaining authority over Bonney.
• Saturn threatened to keep Bonney from the sun and let her illness worsen unless Kuma accepted restrictions on what he could tell her; Kuma secured permission to write her birthday letters.
• The Sky Screen disclosed that Bonney would be surveilled, Kuma could not share his people’s history or memories of the sun, and his body and memory samples would go to Saturn’s project.
• A new quiz asked what Kuma had secretly asked Vegapunk to preserve, and a sealed door beneath Future Island lit up as it was accessed remotely.

Vegapunk revealed that Kuma’s letters, Buccaneer records, and a recording of his sun story were hidden in an old archive targeted by Saturn’s retrieval program. Kizaru, Kuzan, and Smoker recovered the materials despite a backup Seraphim’s attack, but Saturn’s observation mark inside the box threatened to expose anyone who opened it, and Bonney decided the whole world should read the contents together.

• Vegapunk explained that Kuma’s letters, wooden-board rubbings, and sun-story recording were stored in the old archive, and the Sky Screen confirmed that all of them were the correct answer.
• Vegapunk discovered Saturn’s retrieval program was destroying the archive, so Kizaru, Kuzan, and Smoker went to recover the materials while Dragon stayed to protect Kuma and Bonney.
• Kizaru found a backup S-Bear control unit guarding the archive, and Kuma, Bonney, and S-Bear briefly overrode its orders so the others could retrieve the metal box.
• S-Bear’s backup unit independently deviated from its command and deflected its blast, allowing Kizaru, Kuzan, and Smoker to escape with the box.
• The Sky Screen revealed Saturn’s observation mark inside the box, and Bonney said everyone should read the contents together so Saturn would know they were all watching.

Bonney and Kuma publicly read the letters Saint Saturn had withheld, revealing Kuma’s love and Vegapunk’s hidden backups. The Sky Screen invalidated Saturn’s observation mark, but a White Mask agent exposed an undisclosed command implanted in Kuma: the Sun-Triggered Suppression Protocol.

• Vegapunk explained that opening the marked box could expose the opener, so Bonney and Kuma chose public reading to protect the letters and share responsibility with all viewers.
• The Sky Screen revealed Kuma’s birthday letters to Bonney and showed that Saint Saturn had blocked them to prevent their bond and Bonney’s independence from growing.
• Vegapunk revealed hidden metal backups and a private note affirming that Kuma had not betrayed Bonney and had left behind more than the World Government destroyed.
• Bonney and Kuma listened to Kuma’s recording of the sun story, while the Sky Screen preserved the letters and records and invalidated Saint Saturn’s observation mark.
• A White Mask agent warned that Saint Saturn had planted another command in Kuma, and the Sky Screen identified it as the Sun-Triggered Suppression Protocol.

Bonney, Kuma, and Vegapunk learned that Saint Saturn’s Sun-Triggered Suppression Protocol was designed to make Kuma attack Bonney if he tried to pass on forbidden memories. Vegapunk began removing it with help from Bonney, S-Bear, and a backup control body, but the countdown neared its end as Kuma’s palm aimed at Bonney.

• White Mask explained that the protocol would force Kuma into suppression mode if he approached sun-related memories or tried to pass them to Bonney.
• The Sky Screen revealed the protocol’s purpose, and viewers across the world selected that it was meant to stop Buccaneer memories, suppress the sun story, and exploit Kuma and Bonney’s bond.
• A recording showed Saint Saturn ordering Vegapunk to install the protocol, and Vegapunk admitted that he had installed it but secretly wired it to allow an external override.
• Vegapunk said removal required Kuma to stay conscious, Bonney’s emotional authorization, and S-Bear and the backup control body to share the protocol’s impact.
• Bonney chose to help protect Kuma, while Kizaru guided the backup control body toward the maintenance bay and Sabo and Dragon prepared to face CP0.
• Kuma’s palm began glowing and pointing at Bonney as the countdown reached its final seconds, with the backup control body still approaching.

Kuma and Bonney challenged the hidden control protocols embedded in Kuma’s modification, disabling them with Kuma’s declarations of fatherly love and choice. The Sky Screen punished Saint Saturn and granted Kuma the right to question him, which Kuma used to ask about the true origin of Bonney’s Sapphire Scales.

• Vegapunk connected Kuma, S-Bear, the backup control unit, and Bonney to the Shared Burden Chain so they could disable the control protocol.
• Bonney rejected the World Government’s claim over her, and Kuma declared that he was her father despite the program’s objections.
• Kuma’s unrecorded promises to Bonney disrupted the emotional severance procedure, while S-Bear and the backup control unit asserted their ability to choose.
• The Sky Screen disabled the remaining protocols, invalidated Bonney’s surveillance clause, exposed Saint Saturn’s hidden commands, and granted Kuma one Reverse Accountability Questioning Right.
• At Bonney’s request, Kuma asked Saint Saturn about the true origin of Jewelry Bonney’s Sapphire Scales, and the Sky Screen began a forced-response countdown.

The Sky Screen forced Saturn to reveal that Bonney’s illness came from experiments conducted on her mother, Ginny, after the Holy Land abducted her. As the records exposed Ginny’s past and her bond with Kuma, Bonney demanded to learn how her mother returned, and the chapter ended with Ginny’s call saying she had escaped.

• Bonney demanded answers from Saturn as the Sky Screen began forcing him to account for her illness.
• Saturn revealed that an experimental drug in Bonney’s mother’s body caused her illness, and the Sky Screen identified her mother as Ginny, a Revolutionary Army member who had gone missing.
• The Sky Screen disclosed that Ginny was forcibly taken to the Holy Land, prompting Imu to order the destruction of the original records, which triggered evidence protection and an earlier public broadcast.
• The broadcast showed Ginny helping civilians during a Revolutionary Army mission before World Government forces seized her under a retrieval order.
• The Sky Screen revealed that Ginny endured involuntary drug trials and later left the Holy Land gravely ill with infant Bonney; Kuma said Ginny had called him to say she wanted to go home.
• The chapter ended with a recording of Ginny telling Kuma, “I got away.”

The Sky Screen revealed Ginny’s final moments as she brought Bonney to Kuma and told him the Sapphire Scales disease was not Bonney’s fault. White Mask then connected Ginny’s trial to a search for adaptable bodies, and Saint Saturn confirmed that Sapphire Scales was linked to the Holy Land’s Forbidden Energy adaptability trial.

• Kuma ran toward the coast while Ginny told him she might not survive and asked him to care for Bonney.
• Kuma reached Ginny’s boat, took their baby, and promised to protect her as Ginny explained that her disease was beyond treatment.
• Ginny told Kuma that Bonney did not belong to the Holy Land and that the disease was not her fault; Bonney heard the message and wept.
• Sengoku ordered the Navy to protect patients from Holy Land experiments, while White Mask revealed that Ginny had been part of the Jade Scales Adaptability Trial.
• Saint Saturn confirmed that Sapphire Scales was connected to the Holy Land’s Forbidden Energy adaptability trial.

The Sky Screen revealed that the Sapphire Scales Trial had harmed Bonney before birth and that Saint Saturn had approved Ginny’s use as a test subject. After Bonney asked who had ordered Ginny’s experiment, the screen exposed Saturn’s directive to keep Ginny and use her unborn child as a second-generation sample, then revealed how Ginny escaped with Bonney.

• Vegapunk explained that the Jade Scales Adaptability Trial sought people who could withstand forbidden energy, and Bonney learned that the experiment had caused her Sapphire Scales before she was born.
• Bonney asked who had directly ordered Ginny’s experiment, and the Sky Screen revealed that Saint Saturn had approved her selection and ordered her pregnancy to be observed for a possible second-generation sample.
• Ginny defied Saturn during her imprisonment, rejected his demand for cooperation, and vowed that someone would remember what he had done.
• The Sky Screen asked how Ginny had escaped with Bonney, and the group chose D, identifying the guards’ negligence, Ginny’s own plan, and inside help as factors.
• The Sky Screen showed Ginny fleeing with Bonney and a stolen communicator while a Holy Land maid guided her to a hidden passage because the maid’s child had died in the experiments.

Ginny’s escape and death were publicly recognized, while Bonney learned that hundreds more people had been victims of the Holy Land’s experiments. The Sky Screen then offered to play Ginny’s final message, and Bonney chose to watch it with Kuma.

• Mary helped Ginny escape with Bonney, then was executed the following day; the Sky Screen recorded her name as a victim.
• Ginny hid aboard a waste ship, calling Bonney by name and later sending a distress message to the Revolutionary Army.

• The Sky Screen corrected Ginny’s death record, named Saturn and others as responsible for the experiments, and revealed 372 additional victims.
• The Sky Screen found Ginny’s unsent message, and Bonney asked Kuma to watch it with her before it began playing.

Ginny’s recorded message comforted Bonney and Kuma, while the Sky Screen exposed a connection between the Sapphire Scales Trial and God Valley. The chapter ended as the Sky Screen prepared to access Garp’s memories about the incident.

• Ginny told Bonney to live freely and told Kuma not to blame himself, and Bonney and Kuma promised to travel together.
• Bonney cried with Kuma after the recording ended, while Vegapunk agreed to preserve the Sapphire Scales data and asked the Navy to protect Future Island.
• The Sky Screen restored Ginny’s name, granted Bonney permanent ownership of the message, and authorized the transfer of trial records to the Navy and Revolutionary Army.
• White Mask revealed that Sapphire Scales was connected to God Valley, and the Sky Screen previewed the incident’s associated parties.
• The Sky Screen asked what truth the World Government concealed about God Valley and assigned Garp a key observer’s seat before preparing to access his memories.

The Sky Screen forced a recollection of God Valley, revealing that the World Government staged a hunt using native people, enslaved people, and rare peoples as prey and test subjects. Garp admitted the Marines blockaded the island to keep both Rocks and the victims from escaping, and the chapter ended as Rocks arrived and Garp’s next memory was about to begin.

• Luffy, Robin, and the others chose D, while Kuma recalled his father warning him to avoid people from the Holy Land if he heard the name God Valley.
• The Sky Screen confirmed D as the correct answer and showed Celestial Dragons’ officials listing God Valley’s inhabitants, Buccaneers, other rare peoples, escaped slaves, and prospective test subjects as prey.
• The footage showed a Buccaneer man shielding two children from officials who treated them as numbered medical samples, while Vegapunk began searching the newly accessible records.
• Garp said he had gone to God Valley because Roger was there, and revealed that the Marines blockaded the sea both to stop Rocks from escaping and to prevent victims from escaping.
• Garp, Sengoku, Kuzan, and Kizaru chose D when asked why victims were registered as prey, while Bonney confronted White Mask about reducing people to numbers.
• Rocks’s ship broke through the blockade as the Sky Screen prepared to force Garp into a second recollection of the God Valley battlefield.

Garp’s memories and the Sky Screen revealed that God Valley’s hunting ground concealed experiments on enslaved people, including members of rare tribes, and that Rocks attacked for treasure, revenge against the Celestial Dragons, and secrets of the past. The chapter ended as the Sky Screen prepared to reveal whom Roger and Garp first joined forces to protect.

• Young Garp rescued a child fleeing the God Valley hunting ground and learned that the Marines were connected to the Celestial Dragons’ hunt.
• The Sky Screen exposed a medical trial seeking people capable of carrying Ancient Energy, and Sengoku ordered the evidence recorded in the Marine crime database.
• Roger, Rayleigh, and Gaban met Garp in the woods, where Roger revealed that Rocks had entered the inner island seeking treasure and answers.
• The Sky Screen asked why Rocks attacked God Valley, and Marine Headquarters and Luffy chose that Rocks wanted the treasure, the Celestial Dragons dead, and the secrets of the past.
• Rocks confronted Holy Land officials at the inner island palace while Roger and Garp raced toward it, and the Sky Screen announced its next question about whom they joined forces to protect.

Garp and Roger joined forces at God Valley to protect civilians and people being hunted, then fought the Holy Land fleet to get them off the island. The Sky Screen exposed falsified records and began showing the postwar erasure as a Holy Land recovery team arrived.

• Garp, Roger, Rayleigh, and the marines helped civilians and hunted victims escape while fighting Rocks and the Holy Land guards.
• Garp revealed that marine records falsely credited the rescuers with protecting the Celestial Dragons, and the Sky Screen began reconstructing their names.
• Garp and Roger blocked the Holy Land fleet’s cannon volley aimed at the evacuation boats.
• Garp, Sengoku, Akainu, Kuzan, and Kizaru chose that all three falsifications behind Garp’s hero title had occurred.
• Saint Saturn and Imu discussed the danger of Garp’s testimony as a recovery team arrived at God Valley with memory-cleansing agents and plans to erase the island from maps.

The Sky Screen revealed how the World Government buried God Valley’s postwar crimes and how Garp and the Marines accepted a false public account. As rescued victims’ names were restored, the screen raised a new question about an object secretly removed from the island, including a baby.

• Garp confronted the Holy Land Recovery Team and exposed its drugs, handcuffs, and lists for recovering victims as samples.
• The Sky Screen showed that Garp stopped the first recovery attempt, while the team took other victims back for experiments and disposal.
• A younger Five Elder ordered Garp’s actions recast as a heroic defense of the Celestial Dragons, and the present-day Marines acknowledged their role in keeping the false records secret.
• Garp accepted responsibility for his silence, and the Sky Screen listed his rescues and resistance alongside the Marines’ complicity while restoring victims’ names and records of the Roger Pirates’ rescue.
• Kuma recognized the name Saul among the restored victims, and White Mask hinted that more than names had been erased from God Valley.
• The Sky Screen asked which key object the World Government secretly removed from God Valley, offering an experiment core, national treasure records, a baby, or all three, and Garp reacted with alarm.

The Sky Screen revealed that the World Government had tried to take a red-haired baby from God Valley along with secret records and an experimental core, but the Roger Pirates took the baby instead. Garp publicly testified about the cover-up, and the chapter ended with a new question about who obtained the secret Rocks had sought.

• Garp admitted that the baby he saw near the evacuation ships had red hair, while Rayleigh confirmed the Roger Pirates later found a child aboard their ship.
• The Sky Screen showed Roger discovering a red-haired baby in a chest from God Valley and taking him in; the footage identified the infant as Red-Haired Shanks but left his lineage uncertain.
