• Sea Tiger pulled Charlotte Linlin's soul from her body, separated it from the old woman's soul, and destroyed the old woman's soul.

• Kung Fu Dugongs ordered the pirates and Marines to surrender, and Chopper reunited with his big brother among them.
• Dragon asked how Izumo would treat the Revolutionary Army, and Chopper’s big brother ordered their arrest; Dragon then attacked him with Dragon Claw Hand.

• Ling Donglai stabilized the artificial star track and made the mimic planets transmit electromagnetic waves of affection toward Sea Star.

As Ling Donglai prepared to attack the Celestial Dragons, Izumo rapidly seized the Four Seas and dismantled kingdoms, leaving the Red Line and Grand Line as its remaining obstacles.

• Akainu failed to break through the electromagnetic defenses and was killed, while Gan Fall summoned his soul with the Seven-Star Sword.

• Nami complained that Izumo’s new land and expenses had made its finances harder to manage, and Robin suggested creating a new currency.

• Slow Man used his Slow-Slow Fruit to halt the mechanical police, and Shu used his Rust-Rust Fruit to corrode them.
• The squad debated why Izumo kept finding them and worried that its weather weapon could flood the island and neutralize Devil Fruit users.

Ain’s squad hid underground from Izumo’s Lightning Storm and received orders from Kong to seize a Phoenix Fighter and attack Izumo’s headquarters. Izumo intercepted their communications and identified Ain’s Rewind-Rewind Fruit as a potentially terrifying threat.

• A Sand-Sand Fruit user dug a pit for the nine ability users to shelter in, and a Swamp-Swamp Fruit user concealed the entrance.
• Ain answered Kong’s call, learned that Mary Geoise was under attack, and received orders to fly a Phoenix Fighter to Izumo and kill Sea Tiger.
• Ain’s teammates reinforced the underground shelter with the Barrier-Barrier Fruit, while the storm and barrier disrupted her phone signal.
• Izumo intercepted the call and data packet, then ordered a Phoenix Fighter sent to the squad and used the blueprints to improve its own fighters.
• Izumo analyzed the squad’s abilities and discovered that Ain’s Rewind-Rewind Fruit could rewind targets by six years and potentially erase them from existence.

Ain and the other ability users escaped Izumo’s mechanical police and snipers aboard a Phoenix Fighter, then faced a massive Templar attack as they flew toward South Heaven Gate. The Slow-Slow Fruit user slowed everything within a thousand meters to protect them.

• The ability users waited for the storm to clear, then used quicksand, barriers, and the Slow-Slow Fruit to escape the mechanical police.
• Ain and the others boarded an unmanned Phoenix Fighter and evaded sniper fire as they took off.
• The group argued over whether killing Sea Tiger would restore peace, while the Rust-Rust Fruit user questioned whether his new world was so bad.
• Tens of thousands of Templar attacked the Phoenix Fighter with a magnetic field, and the Slow-Slow Fruit user slowed incoming attacks as they charged toward South Heaven Gate.

Ain and her squad fought through Izumo, where the Apostles and Templars tried to stop them with Words of Power and ranged attacks. The squad was overwhelmed, but Ain escaped toward the enormous vine after revealing that her ability could regress people by twelve years.

• A mirror reflected the slowdown beam and froze the aircraft, while the Ball-Ball Fruit user stayed behind to hold off the Templars as Ain's group fled.
• Ain and the survivors broke through the South Heaven Gate behind the barrier user, then split up to find Izumo's laboratory and cause a diversion.
• The Apostles used Words of Power and electromagnetic force to pin down the barrier user as the Sand-Sand Fruit user attacked the city.
• Enel woke to the fighting, and Templars arrived to subdue the squad after a light cannon dispersed the sandstorm.
• Ain ran toward the enormous vine while the other ability users covered her escape, and her flying slash regressed a Templar into a child by twelve years.

The ability users encountered Enel, who let the Bomb-Bomb Fruit user destroy his Seastone cuffs before turning on the group. Enel rejected the commanders’ attempt to claim the captured powers and used his lightning and magnetic abilities as the apple in his hand transformed into a Devil Fruit.

• Ain’s time-reversal attack erased a Templar, while the surviving ability users learned that their group had dwindled to four.

• The commanders tried to contact Enel through Kara Link, but he understood their desire to claim the ability users’ powers and refused to cooperate.
• Enel used Magnetic Field Rotation as electricity struck the Bomb-Bomb Fruit user, and an apple in Enel’s hand began transforming into a Devil Fruit.

Enel mastered Magnetic Field Rotation while the Templars overwhelmed the Navy and World Government ability-users, leaving Ain as the last intruder. Ling Donglai prepared to face her and used the Seven-Star Sword to release Sakazuki’s soul.

• Enel adapted Magnetic Field Rotation to his Rumble-Rumble Fruit and accepted the Devil Fruit the Templars had obtained.
• The Templars cornered the Navy and World Government squad, killing two ability-users as Ain fought to escape.
• Ling Donglai sensed Enel’s new power, learned about Ain’s Rewind-Rewind Fruit, and ordered the Templars to stop pursuing her.
• Ling Donglai summoned the Seven-Star Sword and ordered it to release Sakazuki’s soul.
• Sakazuki awoke before Ling Donglai, recognized him as Sea Tiger, and assumed a fighting stance.
