Enel took control of Flevance and used robots to mine Platinum Lead, while Doflamingo brought Law to Alabasta to search for a Devil Fruit through his underground network. Meanwhile, Joker secretly cured Flevance residents, used them in experiments, and assembled a hidden army of madmen to target the World Government.

Two years after the seas appeared peaceful, Joker’s Joker Party terrorized the World Government while Buggy secretly struggled to maintain his role as Joker. When the Clown Pirates prepared a joint attack on Mary Geoise with the Sun Pirates, Buggy hoped the operation would bring them treasure.

• Borsalino continued pursuing the Sun Pirates without success as Joker Party members killed World Government officials and raised Joker’s bounty above two billion Beli.
• Buggy carried out Joker’s plans with uncanny success despite fearing the Joker Party’s insane worshippers, while Kanjuro and Williams secretly enjoyed watching him struggle.
• Joker and the Joker Party’s leaders approved a plan to liberate slaves in Mary Geoise, and Buggy panicked before becoming interested in the prospect of stealing treasure.
• A clown reported that someone from the Sun Pirates had arrived, and Kanjuro reminded Buggy that the Mary Geoise attack was a joint operation.
• Buggy went out to meet the Sun Pirates, deciding that he needed their fighting strength for the dangerous mission.

Buggy negotiated with Jinbe over the Sun Pirates’ plan to free slaves in Mary Geoise, while Doflamingo learned that Diez Barrels had found the Op-Op Fruit. Doflamingo discovered that Barrels had already reported the fruit to the World Government, complicating his plans.

• Jinbe met Buggy and explained that the Sun Pirates would handle the route into Mary Geoise while the Joker Party caused chaos there.

• Doflamingo learned that Diez Barrels had found the Op-Op Fruit and had been keeping him under surveillance.
• Doflamingo entered the Barrels Pirate Crew’s ship unseen and used his ability to make Barrels blank out.
• Doflamingo searched Barrels’ memories and discovered that he had already reported the Op-Op Fruit to the World Government.

Doflamingo replaced the Op-Op Fruit destined for the World Government with a counterfeit and returned to Alabasta with the real fruit. He gave the real fruit to Law, who rushed to him after hearing that it could save his family.

• Doflamingo created a counterfeit Op-Op Fruit, made it drive its eater insane, and altered Diez Barrels's memories before leaving the pirate ship.
• Baby5 cried to Doflamingo after telling Law that his sister should be euthanized because Platinum Lead Disease could not be cured.
• Doflamingo announced that the Op-Op Fruit had been found, prompting Baby5 to run to the training grounds and tell Law his illness could be cured.
• Baby5 and Yamato excitedly told Law the news, and Law rushed outside after learning Doflamingo had the fruit.
• Doflamingo showed Law the real Op-Op Fruit and told him that his whole family could be saved.

Doflamingo gave Law the Op-Op Fruit and began training him to develop its power so he could cure his sister and others of Platinum Lead Disease. Meanwhile, Doflamingo trained Hancock and her sisters as they prepared to leave Alabasta, and Hancock’s increasingly lovestruck behavior disrupted their practice.

• Doflamingo gave Law the Op-Op Fruit and told him to develop its abilities to treat Platinum Lead Disease.
• Doflamingo put Law to sleep, and after he rested, brought him into the Illusion Space to practice using the fruit on a patient.
• Doflamingo trained Hancock and her two sisters in the real world because Illusion Space training could not strengthen their bodies.
• Hancock let Doflamingo hit her during training and acted lovestruck, while her sisters complained that she had become worse since her fruit awakened.

Hancock returned to Amazon Lily with her sisters after Doflamingo confirmed her strength, while Law cured the remaining Flevance residents of Platinum Lead Disease. Hancock's reunion began warmly, but her Conqueror's Haki scattered the women who crowded around her.

• Doflamingo praised Hancock's awakened Love-Love Fruit and promised they could meet in the Illusion Space after she returned to Amazon Lily.
• Law developed the Op-Op Fruit enough to cure Platinum Lead Disease, treated his younger sister, and helped nearly twenty thousand Flevance residents recover before leaving.
• Hancock, Sandersonia, and Marigold arrived at Amazon Lily aboard a ship that could cross the Calm Belt without sea serpents.
• Mary and the other women recognized the returned sisters and welcomed Hancock, marveling at her beauty and asking where she had been.
• Hancock released a restrained wave of Conqueror's Haki that scattered the women gathered around her, knocking some to the ground.

Hancock arrived on Amazon Lily and awakened Conqueror's Haki, winning the island's women over as she prepared to become queen. Meanwhile, Doflamingo and Judge advanced their artificial Devil Fruit experiments using cloned animal souls and newly produced animal clones.

• Hancock's Conqueror's Haki astonished the older women of Amazon Lily, where queens with that ability had been rare for centuries.
• Hancock arrived on Amazon Lily aboard a ship full of small robots and quickly gained the shore women's admiration.
• Doflamingo delivered supplies to the Tontatta Tribe, collected their harvested fruit, and took it to Germa 66 for more experiments with Judge.
• Doflamingo explained that he had improved the artificial Devil Fruits by inserting animal souls, while Judge described how animal clones could reduce the risk of losing control.
• Judge presented cloned Silverback Gorillas and Velociraptors as cost-effective animals for the next stage of the experiments.

Doflamingo and Judge tested artificial Velociraptor and Silverback Gorilla Devil Fruits made by fusing beast souls with fruit embryos. Their successful transformations and combat results showed the fruits could strengthen mass-produced fighters, helping the Dragon Hunting Pirates narrow the gap with the World Government.

• Doflamingo infused a cloned Velociraptor’s soul into an artificial Devil Fruit embryo, and a clone ate it and transformed, retaining only minor dinosaur features after returning to human form.
• Doflamingo created a Silverback Gorilla Fruit in the same way, and a clone transformed and returned to human form with extra body hair, a beard, and powerful arms.
• Judge and Doflamingo tested the artificial fruit users and found their beast-form Doriki exceeded 200, with Velociraptor users averaging about 20 Doriki more than Silverback Gorilla users.
• Judge estimated the clones’ combat strength could roughly double with training, while Doflamingo wondered whether the artificial fruits could eventually awaken.
• Doflamingo concluded that the artificial fruits had narrowed the Dragon Hunting Pirates’ gap with the World Government’s mid-level fighters and advanced their effort to overthrow it.

Tiger, Williams, Morley, and the Clown Pirates traveled to Mary Geoise to free the slaves and reignite resistance against oppression. Morley carved a passage through the Red Line, and the group emerged on top of it, still some distance from the city.

• Tiger explained that he had come to Mary Geoise to free the slaves and that Jinbe would lead the Sun Pirates if he died.
• Joker recognized that Tiger had awakened Conqueror's Haki and had reached the peak of his strength through his convictions.
• Morley used his Push-Push Fruit to open a sloping passage through the Red Line, and the Sun Pirates, Revolutionary Army members, and Clown Pirates climbed through it.
• The group navigated the underground passage and eventually emerged atop the Red Line, a distance from Mary Geoise.

Joker, Tiger, and the Sun Pirates attacked Mary Geoise, battling its guards and forcing their way toward the city. Tiger engaged Akainu to hold him off while the others advanced.

• Joker, Tiger, and their companions approached Mary Geoise and were spotted by World Government agents and guards.
• Tiger charged through the first defensive formation, and Williams led the Sun Pirates into the fight.
• Joker unleashed viruses and bombs, throwing the guards into chaos as Tiger's men pushed toward Mary Geoise.
• Akainu attacked from above with magma, but Tiger blocked it with projected Haki and told the others to keep moving.
• Tiger and Akainu met in close combat while Joker and the Sun Pirates continued their advance.

The Sun Pirates and the Joker Party broke into Mary Geoise, where the Sun Pirates set out to free slaves and the Joker Party began causing destruction. Joker headed for Pangea Castle to uncover the truth about Imu and the Celestial Dragons’ past.

• Akainu and Tiger continued fighting outside Mary Geoise while the Joker Party and Sun Pirates broke through the Holy Land’s defenses.
• Morley dug a tunnel through the Sea Stone-reinforced walls, and Kanjuro’s puppets and the Joker Party’s bomb-wrapped members held off the guards.
• The Celestial Dragons hid in underground safe rooms, leaving ordinary guards outside as the Sun Pirates entered Mary Geoise.
• Joker and the Sun Pirates parted ways, and the Joker Party scattered through the Holy Land, causing explosions and releasing poison gas.
• Joker headed toward Pangea Castle to investigate Imu’s hidden power, the deaths of Celestial Dragons, and the disappearance of two Five Elders.

Joker’s assault on Pangea Castle began with a fake body that distracted the Five Elders, while an agent’s explosive attack damaged the castle’s armored guards. The Five Elders secured the gates and focused on protecting their master and the Celestial Dragons as the Joker Party continued freeing slaves.

• Joker confronted three Five Elders, but the blond Elder killed him with one punch and realized the body was fake.
• The bald Elder identified the fake as a creation of a Drawing Fruit user, and the Five Elders feared Joker’s real body had entered Pangea Castle.
• A bloodied World Government agent approached the castle gates, was speared by the armored guards, and detonated himself, destroying two guards.
• The Five Elders rushed to the gates, confirmed the other guards remained unharmed, and sent the sword-wielding Elder to attack the Joker Party.
• The remaining Five Elders discussed calling the Navy and the weakening control in the Celestial Dragons’ Lineage Factors while the Joker Party rescued slaves outside.

Joker used a bird carrying his split-off eye to secretly enter Pangea Castle and find Imu in the Flower Chamber. He realized she was hibernating while absorbing many powers, and considered what might happen if the process were interrupted.

• A bird slipped into Pangea Castle while the Five Elders discussed matters and searched the castle with faint Observation Haki.
• The bird reached the Flower Chamber and found a gaunt figure lying beneath flowers on a stone bed.
• At his Sabaody casino, One-Eyed Joe revealed himself to be Joker and laughed over discovering Imu's hiding place.
• Joker explained that he had sent a stand-in to Mary Geoise and controlled the bird through an eye split off with the Chop-Chop Fruit.
• Joker sensed that Imu's immense Haki contained many weaker auras being consumed by a dominant one, and reasoned that interrupting her digestion would likely only reduce her gains.

Doflamingo used Joker’s bird to draw Imu’s dream into the Illusion Space and tried to probe her memories, but Imu’s Consciousness Clone destroyed itself before he could learn anything. Imu awoke in the Flower Chamber, crushed the bird, and discovered the hidden eyeball watching her.

• Joker used the bird to mark Imu and pull her dream into Doflamingo’s Illusion Space.
• Doflamingo sensed Imu’s immense Dream Bubble and cautiously entered her chaotic dream with his Mental Energy.
• Imu awakened within the dream, recognized Doflamingo’s intrusion, and destroyed her Consciousness Clone to prevent him from obtaining her memories.
• The collapse of Imu’s dream woke her in the Flower Chamber, where her Haki crushed the bird Joker had used.
• Imu examined the bird, found its unnatural right eye, and removed the hidden eyeball.

Imu’s weaknesses became clearer, while Doflamingo concluded that she would be most vulnerable when her eight-hundred-year plan resumed. At Mary Geoise, the Joker Party’s sabotage drew the guards away as the Sun Pirates led the slaves to safety.

• Imu crushed the eyeball, and Joker sensed that her power drained when she acted, then stopped the bleeding from his own injured eye.
• Doflamingo reasoned that Imu could only be defeated when her plan resumed in around ten years and considered planting Hidden Moves among the Celestial Dragons.
• The Sun Pirates’ slave liberation proceeded as the Joker Party caused chaos with Bombs, Joker Virus, and Kanjuro’s drawings.
• A Five Elder knocked out infected Celestial Dragons and destroyed Kanjuro’s Killer Puppets as most of the Joker Party was killed or blew themselves up.
• Williams held off pursuing guards with venom while Molly opened a tunnel and the Sun Pirates directed the slaves inside.

Williams challenged a weapon-wielding Five Elder but was badly wounded after one exchange. Fisher Tiger intervened and defeated the Five Elder with his new Armored Bone Dragon Claw, leaving him dead as the slaves escaped.

• Williams sensed the bald Five Elder approaching and attacked him, but the Elder’s sword strike left Williams gravely wounded and unable to continue fighting.
• Fisher Tiger stepped between Williams and the Five Elder, then fought him as the escaping slaves neared safety.
• The Five Elder’s attention shifted when he sensed that Lord Imu had awakened and someone had entered Pangea Castle.
• Tiger seized the Five Elder with his Armored Bone Dragon Claw and struck him repeatedly with his tail club.
• Tiger released the defeated Five Elder, whose body collapsed and stopped breathing.

Tiger escaped through Morley’s tunnel with the freed slaves after defeating the Eyeglasses Five Elder, who soon regenerated and hurried back to Pangea Castle. Imu identified the Joker Party as the World Government’s greatest coming threat, spared the Five Elders, and returned to sleep.

• Tiger watched the Eyeglasses Five Elder collapse, then followed the escaped slaves into Morley’s tunnel with the Elder’s treasured blade.
• The Eyeglasses Five Elder regenerated, rushed to Pangea Castle, and left the guards to abandon their pursuit of the slaves and Sun Pirates.
• Imu heard the Five Elders’ account and learned that the Sun Pirates and Joker Party had jointly caused the chaos in Mary Geoise.
• Imu recognized Clown Buggy as the one who had disturbed her sleep and ordered the Five Elders to keep a close watch on Joker.
• Imu warned the Five Elders that another failure would bring dire consequences, then returned to sleep.
