After learning that Luffy had set sail, Luo Han went to Sky Island with Olvia to wait for Pluton, while the Straw Hat Pirates arrived and were crushed by Monk Sanlong. The crew left Sky Island stronger in resolve, and after Robin joined them at Water Seven, Ann defeated Aokiji when he came to confront them.

Meanwhile, the World Government changed plans and sent Ace to Impel Down, while Imu learned that someone had entered Pluton space and prepared to end the Great Pirate Era.

• Luo Han’s Mind World expanded across the World of Pirates, letting him sense Final Island and Pluton’s entrance, though he still could not find the Heavenly King or sense Imu.

• Whitebeard’s tremor summoned enormous tsunamis, which Aokiji froze with Ice Age before the fighting began.

• Mihawk attacked Whitebeard, Jozu redirected his slash, and Kizaru, George, and Akainu launched further attacks as the battle spread across Marineford.
• Ann burst out of the sea unharmed after using the impact of Akainu’s punch to disperse its force.

• Sengoku ordered the Marines to evacuate as Luo Han and Blackbeard’s battle shattered Marineford.

• Shanks found that Marineford’s foundation had been cleanly cut apart, then returned to his ship and ordered the Red Hair Pirates to head for the New World.

Ann survived and demonstrated both powers, while Luo Han discovered a third Devil Fruit ability within her; the chapter ended with him taking Ann and Ace’s body to Whitebeard’s hometown for the funeral.

• Vegapunk studied the incapacitated Blackbeard while Luo Han took the newly created Tremor-Tremor, Shadow Shadow, and Flame-Flame Fruits from the laboratory.
• Ann agreed to bury Ace alongside Whitebeard and asked Luo Han for the Shadow Shadow Fruit so she could eat it before Ace’s Flame-Flame Fruit.

• Luo Han teleported Ann, Ace’s body, and the Whitebeard Pirates’ eight ships to Whitebeard’s hometown, where everyone began the funeral for Whitebeard and Ace.

After Marine Admiral Kizaru left the Marines to join Ann, the loss of two Admirals pushed Sengoku to approve a World Military Draft. Ryokugyu and Fujitora filled the vacant positions, and the Marines regained enough strength to suppress the growing pirate threat.

• Sengoku and Garp found Marineford gone and returned to the G1 Branch, where Sengoku rejected Kizaru’s resignation and Kizaru left anyway.
• Luo Han let Ann choose Kizaru, Golden Lion, and little Jack to accompany her as she left Eternal City.

• Ryokugyu and Fujitora joined the Marines as Admirals, and the new Admirals helped the Marines contain the growing pirate threat.

Luo Han learned from Vegapunk that Blackbeard’s body carried an incomplete Devil Fruit ability that could weaken the rejection between Devil Fruits. The discovery suggested that a complete Nullify-Nullify Fruit could let one person wield countless abilities, leaving Luo Han wondering how its power had become associated with the Clan of D.

• Luo Han spent half a year developing his Psychokinesis after discovering it could control Seastone and bypass its effects.
• Chiyue asked Luo Han to have a child so the royal family could preserve its leadership over the Fish-Man Race, and Luo Han agreed.
• After their encounter, Luo Han sensed something unfamiliar in Chiyue but could not explain it.
• Vegapunk showed Luo Han Devil Fruit fluctuations found in Blackbeard’s body and explained that they could be transplanted, though they were too weak to prevent Devil Fruit rejection completely.
• Experiments showed that the Clan of D’s special fluctuations briefly weakened rejection between Devil Fruits, leading Vegapunk to theorize that a complete Nullify-Nullify Fruit could neutralize rejection between countless abilities.
• Luo Han asked Vegapunk how the Nullify-Nullify Fruit’s power had become distributed among the Clan of D, but Vegapunk had no answer.

Luo Han completed the projection of the World of Pirates into his Mind World, causing a vast increase in its power while an elusive fluctuation appeared within it. Two years after the Summit War, he and Chiyue went to Fish-Man Island to watch for Shirahoshi’s awakening, where Hody destroyed Luo Han’s statue and provoked his anger.

• Vegapunk proposed using Devil Fruit rejection-nullifying fluctuations to create machines with multiple Devil Fruit abilities, and Luo Han speculated that Pluton itself had consumed many Devil Fruits but refused to return to the dangerous moon base.
• Luo Han projected Wano Country into his Mind World, completing its globe-like image and discovering that living things, plants, and even the sea emitted Mind Power; he also sensed a vast, intermittent fluctuation he could not touch or identify.

• Chiyue told Luo Han that Luffy was heading to Fish-Man Island, and they flew there together while Aixi watched them leave.
• Hody captured Neptune and his sons, then smashed Luo Han’s statue during his uprising; Jinbe warned him of the consequences, while Luo Han watched in disguise and decided to wait for Shirahoshi’s awakening before punishing Hody.

Luo Han watched Luffy defeat Hody and stop Noah’s Ark, then became alarmed when Shirahoshi appeared to summon the Sea Kings without emitting any detectable signal. Yang Tree Eve’s puzzling call of “White Moon Princess” left Luo Han uncertain whether it referred to Shirahoshi or someone from the past as he and Chiyue teleported away.

• Madame Shyarly prophesied that Straw Hat Luffy, not Hody or Blue Demon, would destroy Fish-Man Island, and Hody responded by preparing to execute Neptune’s royal family.
• The Straw Hat Pirates arrived, and Luffy used Conqueror’s Haki to knock out fifty thousand of Hody’s followers before fighting Hody.
• Noah’s Ark threatened Shirahoshi, so Luo Han took Chiyue outside Mermaid Island and wondered why the ancient history required the Fish-Man Race to flee all at once.
• Four Super Giant Sea Kings stopped Noah’s Ark after Shirahoshi halted Luffy, but Luo Han sensed no communication from her and worried she could evade his Mind World.
• After the Sea Kings returned Noah’s Ark to safety, Luo Han controlled the nearby Sea Kings with Amaterasu and killed Hody and his group.
• Yang Tree Eve called out “White Moon Princess”; Luo Han questioned Chiyue about the name, sensed that she did not recognize it, and left with her still unsure whom Eve meant.

After a mysterious attacker killed Hody's group, Jinbe told the Straw Hat Pirates about the New World's upheavals and warned them about Eternal City and Princess Ann. The crew prepared to enter the New World, where Luffy's ambitions could bring him into conflict with Ann and other powerful forces.

• A hidden attacker killed Hody and his captured group in the plaza, and Jinbe concealed what he knew about Lord Blue Demon from Luffy.
• Jinbe explained that Kizaru had joined the Flame Emperor Pirates, Akainu had died, and Aokiji had become Fleet Admiral after the Marines strengthened through the World Military Draft.
• Jinbe told the crew that Princess Ann had acquired Blackbeard's Shadow Shadow Fruit and the Flame-Flame Fruit, defeated Kaido and Big Mom's attacks, and become one of the Four Emperors.
• Jinbe warned that Eternal City was a neutral power where anyone who caused trouble would die, and said Ann blamed Luffy, Marco, and the Whitebeard Pirates for failing to protect Ace.
• Luffy said he would pursue his goal despite any unavoidable clashes, while Jinbe planned to join the Straw Hat Pirates after leaving the Big Mom Pirates.

After learning that people from the past may have foreseen the future, Luo Han returned to training, then agreed to take Reiju as his woman and allowed Judge to pursue his plan to rule the North Blue. The chapter ends with Judge arranging a political marriage between Sanji and the Charlotte Family while Luo Han wonders whether events are returning to their original course.

• Luo Han returned from Fish-Man Island troubled by the possibility that his actions had been foreseen, and he resumed training to become strong enough to overcome any predicted future.
• Elles and Aixi teased Chiyue about her unchanged figure, and Chiyue explained that Fish-Man pregnancies involved a small egg.
• Judge brought Reiju to Luo Han, believing an old remark meant Luo Han wanted her, and Reiju willingly agreed to become his woman.
• Judge asked permission to pursue control of the North Blue and to take Sanji back for a political marriage with the Charlotte Family, and Luo Han agreed to both requests.
• Judge left Eternal City and began arranging the marriage, while Luo Han returned to training and wondered whether events were following the original plot again.
