Chapter Summaries

Luo Han survived Hawk’s life-draining Devil Fruit attack and killed the elderly CP0 agent who confronted him. After ordering Elles back to the ship, he and Cole flew off to strike back at the World Government, while the Gorosei learned that their surveillance team had gone silent.

• Luo Han told Cole and Elles that Hawk’s gray mist had cost him more than thirty years of life, then charged the elderly CP0 agent.
• The elderly CP0 agent activated his life-burning mode and attacked Luo Han, but Luo Han’s Perfect Armament Haki reflected the force and destroyed him.

• Luo Han ordered Cole to use his full strength and sent Elles back to the ship before flying away with Cole to punish the World Government.
• A CP0 intelligence officer reported to the Gorosei that everyone monitoring the ship had gone silent and that Hawk and Luo had not answered their Den Den Mushi.

The Gorosei concluded that Blue Demon had survived Luo’s Curse Fruit attack and worried about his retaliation. Above Sabaody Archipelago, Cole transformed into a colossal Kun and gathered seawater into his mouth, while Sister Shaku stopped Aixi from rushing to help; the chapter ended with the water compressed to its limit.

• The Gorosei reasoned that Blue Demon had blocked the Curse Fruit attack himself and discussed the threat of his retaliation.
• Luo Han and Cole flew above Sabaody Archipelago, where Cole transformed into a ten-thousand-meter-long Kun.
• People across Sabaody Archipelago panicked at Cole’s enormous form, and Sister Shaku explained his transformation to Aixi.
• Aixi tried to go help Luo Han, but Sister Shaku stopped her and urged her to trust Luo Han and become stronger.
• Cole opened the Kun’s layered mouths and drew seawater from around Sabaody Archipelago into them, disrupting currents and wrecking ships.
• After about ten minutes, Cole compressed the gathered seawater to its limit, and the water stopped flowing toward his mouth.

Luo Han and Cole attacked Holy Land Mary Geoise with a barrage of Golden Spears and a massive water column, causing devastating destruction before the Gorosei redirected part of their assault. They escaped aboard Luo Han’s ship as the Gorosei ordered the Marines to pursue them.

• Luo Han and Cole launched their attacks at Holy Land Mary Geoise, while pirate crews near Sabaody watched and resolved to enter the New World.
• Cole’s water column tore through Mary Geoise, and Luo Han’s Golden Spears blasted the city around Pangaea Castle as its barrier deflected and redirected the attacks.
• The Gorosei ordered the long-bearded old man to bend the attacks toward the sky, but the assaults still devastated much of Mary Geoise and killed or injured many residents.
• After the attacks ended, the sword-wielding old man ordered CP0 to contact the Fleet Admiral and send an Admiral to Sabaody to capture Luo Han.
• Luo Han and Cole returned to the ship, where Elles, Sola, and Chiyue reacted to Cole’s power, and Luo Han flew the ship toward the Calm Belt while amplifying the commotion with Illusion.

After Luo Han and Cole attacked Mary Geoise, the World Government mobilized its forces to capture them while they fled aboard ship with Sister Shaku and Aixi. The pursuers reached Sabaody and examined the aftermath of Luo Han’s fight, but Garp remained puzzled by the power behind his devastating punch.

• Pirates and wanted criminals fled Sabaody after concluding that someone had attacked Mary Geoise, and the Fleet Admiral ordered Steel-Bones Kong and Garp to intercept Blue Demon.
• Garp and Steel-Bones Kong raced toward Sabaody as the World Government ordered Blue Demon captured dead or alive and dispatched its forces to pursue him.
• Luo Han took Sister Shaku aboard, explained that the attack on Mary Geoise made Sabaody unsafe, and comforted Aixi about his aged appearance.
• Elles told Sister Shaku that CP0 agents had used a special Devil Fruit ability on Luo Han, while Sister Shaku suspected the World Government wanted something connected to Ring Tree Island.
• Luo Han changed the plan and headed for Ark Island with the others, traveling toward the Calm Belt and the New World.
• Garp, Steel-Bones Kong, and CP agents inspected the pit and CP0 Luo’s remains; Garp questioned how Luo Han had delivered a punch powerful enough to destroy an Admiral-level fighter.

After Luo Han and Cole escaped, the Gorosei decided to use enormous bounties to draw attention and followers toward them, hoping to tie Luo Han down in the New World while waiting for information about the Infinite Fruit.

• Newspapers revealed the devastation at Mary Geoise and announced bounties of 10 billion Beli for both Luo Han and Cole.
• Pirates and bounty hunters across the world set sail for the New World, and Bondi World began his journey to conquer it.

After the Mary Geoise attack, Luo Han regretted that civilians had died and resolved not to target them unless provoked. Meanwhile, Whitebeard prepared to sail, Roger’s crew set out to investigate the Poneglyphs, Golden Lion avoided Warship Island, and Silver Axe and Ochoku planned to build ships there before Luo Han returned.

• Luo Han saw a photograph of a grieving girl among the Mary Geoise ruins and decided he would no longer attack civilians unless they provoked him.
• Marco showed Whitebeard the newspaper and bounties, and Whitebeard said his crew would sail once their ship was finished but told Marco to stay behind.
• Roger told Rayleigh and Gaban that he wanted to investigate Poneglyphs in the Four Blues before completing a voyage around the Grand Line, and the Roger Pirates set course for the Four Blues.
• Golden Lion decided not to go to Warship Island and redirected his crew toward another island where they could build ships.
• Silver Axe and Ochoku discussed the risk of Luo Han returning to Warship Island, then agreed to build ships there and leave before he came back.

Luo Han and his companions traveled to Water Seven to commission a large ship from Tom, who discovered Luo Han was the notorious Blue Demon but agreed to help under the cover of Luo Han’s ability. Tom explained that Adam Tree wood was the finest material, and the group prepared to seek it on Adam Island.

• Luo Han left Ark Island with Sola, Elles, and Chiyue, then traveled through Fish-Man Island and flew to Water Seven.
• At Dock One, Luo Han’s group approached Tom, who recognized Chiyue as Princess Akatsuki and learned she had left with her father’s permission.
• Tom recognized Luo Han from his bounty poster as Blue Demon, and Luo Han assured him that his ability would keep others from seeing them together.
• Luo Han asked Tom to build a large ship with a lawn, aquarium, and refrigerator, and Tom recommended Adam Tree wood.
• Elles asked about Adam Tree wood, and Tom said merchants had permanent log poses for Adam Island; Luo Han found one in a hotel and prepared to take it.

Luo Han obtained Adam Tree lumber for Tom’s ship and then led Elles, Sola, and Chiyue to Jaya Island to pursue the Sky Island and the Thunder Fruit. The group reached Jaya Island exhausted, while Luo Han remained intent on finding Pure Gold to counteract the years of life lost to a CP0 agent.

• Luo Han took the Adam Island Eternal Log Pose from merchants in Water Seven, and he, Tom, Elles, Sola, and Chiyue set off for Adam Island.
• Elles communicated with the Adam Tree, which agreed to provide a branch; Luo Han stopped a falling branch before it hit Chiyue.
• The Adam Tree sent a huge branch with the group back to Water Seven, where Tom praised the lumber and promised to build Luo Han a great ship.
• Luo Han revealed that he planned to visit Sky Island above Jaya Island and produced an Eternal Log Pose pointing toward it.
• After flying for two days, the group reached Jaya Island, where Elles insisted they find food before continuing toward Sky Island.

Luo Han searched Jaya Island for the Sky Island and learned that the Upward Sea Current could reveal when it would return. He reached the Vinsmoke Family’s territory and challenged a man’s claim that the Sky Island was only a legend.

• Luo Han’s Observation Haki confirmed there was no Sky Island above Jaya Island, and Sola explained that Sky Islands drift with the White Sea and may return within a year.
• Luo Han remembered that Jaya Island’s Golden Land had been blasted into the sky and decided to seek people who knew when the Upward Sea Current would arrive.
• A group of pirates tripped over Chiyue’s invisible tail, and Luo Han’s group vanished after he flung the approaching captain against a wall, spreading a story about four hungry ghosts.
• Luo Han and the women waited near a strange half-house, where a salvage ship brought a chestnut-headed man back the next day.
• The man warned Luo Han that attempts to ride the Upward Sea Current to the Sky Island had ended in disaster, and Luo Han asked whether he also considered the Golden Land a legend.

Luo Han revealed that the Golden Land had been carried to Sky Island by the Upward Sea Current, giving the chestnut-haired man hope of fulfilling his family’s quest. He then asked Chiyue to help find a giant Lanternfish, but learned her limited ability to communicate with fish would not make the search easy, while Chiyue insisted she wanted to become his woman to tie him to the Fish-Man Race.

• Luo Han told the chestnut-haired man that the Golden Land was on Sky Island, and the man realized the circular landform near Jaya Island supported the theory that it had been carried there by the Upward Sea Current.
• The chestnut-haired man asked to join Luo Han’s group, but Luo Han refused; the man decided to sail to Sky Island himself when the current arrived.
• Luo Han asked Chiyue which fish species she could communicate with and learned she could only give them simple commands, making it nearly impossible to use whales to find the Lanternfish.
• Chiyue insisted she wanted to become Luo Han’s woman, believing marriage could bind him and the Fish-Man Race together and help her people establish themselves on land.

Luo Han accepted Chiyue as his woman after she reaffirmed her decision to help the Fish-Man Race, then focused on improving his Illusion ability. A week later, he experimented on Jaya Island by making Young Master Kester Qikang mistake a signpost for a beautiful woman, while Sola still had not contacted CP0.

• Chiyue explained that female mermaids’ tails split into legs at age thirty and insisted she had chosen to become Luo Han’s woman despite her hopes of helping the Fish-Man Race.
• Luo Han promised that the Fish-Man Race would be protected on his territory, then agreed that Chiyue would become his woman and told her to keep their relationship and the Lanternfish secret.
• Luo Han returned to Elles and the others, explained that his plan had changed, and began developing a new ability while Chiyue tried to communicate his intentions to the whales.
• After a week, Luo Han noticed that Sola had not reported his location to CP0 and suspected she had been given a more important mission.
• Luo Han reasoned that perfecting Illusion required influencing a person’s subconscious, then tested his developing ability on Jaya Island.
• Young Master Kester Qikang mistook a signpost for Xiao Yueyue, kissed it until he collapsed, and briefly realized it was a tree trunk.

Luo Han perfected his Illusion by using Mind Power to make people subconsciously perceive Chiyue’s enormous body and avoid it. He realized his abilities could also implant temporary thoughts and attractions, then returned with Chiyue to the Kester villa, where Elles reached out to him.

• Luo Han reasoned that mental resonance and implanted ideas could explain how the previous Mermaid Princess Poseidon had influenced minds, and he suspected she might return in some form.
• Luo Han tested his improved Illusion with Chiyue on Jaya Island, and pedestrians subconsciously walked around her while believing they had seen an ordinary-sized woman.
• Luo Han concluded that his perfected Illusion worked and realized he could record and implant thoughts to influence people’s perceptions and behavior, though the effects would eventually fade.
• Luo Han and Chiyue arrived at the Kester villa, where Sola and Elles had prepared a feast.
• Elles reached out toward Luo Han as he entered the house.

Luo Han and his companions watched the Upward Sea Current blast into the sky, rescued a salvage ship that nearly fell, and flew through the clouds toward Sky Island. They reached the White-White Sea, ten thousand meters above the ground.

• Luo Han, Elles, Chiyue, and Sola waited on the shore as the Upward Sea Current erupted from the sea.
• The chestnut-headed man and his crew rode their salvage ship into the current, but the ship flipped and began falling.

• Luo Han's group passed through the White Sea and broke through the Island Cloud with his Telekinetic Shield.
• Luo Han and his companions arrived at the White-White Sea, where Sky Island was located.

Luo Han arrived on Sky Island with Elles, Chiyue, and Sola, then set off alone for Bika Island to find the Thunder Fruit. Meanwhile, San Long learned that Eydas and others were moving to capture a huge red-haired mermaid and rushed to stop them, fearing that Luo Han might be with her.

• Luo Han told the women he had come to Sky Island for the Thunder Fruit, and Elles and Sola assumed Toki had revealed its location to him.
• Elles, Chiyue, and Sola chose to explore the Sky Island town while Luo Han used a mental suggestion to learn the direction to Bika Island and flew off.
• The three women explored a shop full of Dial devices as San Long woke from a nightmare about surviving a fiery disaster after eating a Zoan Devil Fruit.
• A young Sky Islander told San Long that Eydas and others had gone to capture a huge red-haired mermaid, prompting San Long to fear she was the princess of Fish-Man Island.
• San Long rushed toward town in Beastman form, hoping to stop Eydas before the mermaid's companion could retaliate.

Elles, Chiyue, and Sola confronted Sky Island youths who tried to capture Chiyue, then met San Long, who feared Luo Han because he had once spared his life. When Luo Han arrived, he used a seed of will to make San Long absolutely loyal to him, leaving Elles impressed by how much his ability had developed.

• Elles and Sola beat more than a dozen Sky Island youths who tried to capture Chiyue, and Elles sensed a powerful figure approaching.
• San Long arrived, knelt before Elles and the others, and begged them to spare his hometown while offering to punish the youths.

• San Long rose and obeyed Luo Han, while Elles recognized that Luo Han had mastered an ability similar to the one used on the little blond Fish-Man girl.

Luo Han made San Long the ruler of Upper Yard and charged him with guarding the Golden Land, then returned to Water Seven with Elles, Chiyue, and Sola. At Dock No. 4, Rear Admiral Victor tried to seize Luo Han’s ship, but a fat merchant claimed it as his order, with Luo Han apparently intervening through a message to Tom.

• Luo Han knocked out Upper Yard’s guards and its current God with Conqueror’s Haki, then declared San Long its new God and ordered him to protect the Golden Land.
• Luo Han gave San Long an Innate Aura Flame and left him to guard Upper Yard before rejoining Elles, Chiyue, and Sola in Shandora.
• Luo Han reassured the women that San Long would protect the gold, took some of it with Mind Movement, and set off with them for Water Seven.
• Rear Admiral Victor accused Tom of using Navy funds to build Luo Han’s ship and ordered the shipwrights to take it away.
• A fat merchant stepped forward and claimed to have ordered the ship, and Tom confirmed the claim after hearing a message from Luo Han.

Luo Han claimed a giant ship from a merchant in Water Seven and named it the Penguin, nicknamed QQ, before flying toward the New World to search for the Lanternfish. Meanwhile, the Gorosei discussed Blue Demon's disappearance and grew concerned about Roger's search for a special stone in the East Blue.

• Luo Han frightened Rear Admiral Victor unconscious, then took the merchant's giant ship and declared it his own.
• Luo Han named the ship the Penguin, with the nickname QQ, and flew away from Water Seven with Elles and the others aboard.
• Luo Han headed for the New World and decided to develop the complete Amaterasu so he could control Sea Kings and search for the Lanternfish across the seas.
• The Gorosei discussed Blue Demon's month-long disappearance and chose not to contact Viper.
• The elder with the curved mustache warned the Gorosei that Roger had withdrawn from the New World and was searching for a special type of stone in the East Blue.

The Gorosei ordered Roger watched and considered eliminating Ohara after learning he might decipher Poneglyphs, then received word that Blue Demon had collected a ship at Water Seven and flown away. Four years later, Luo Han and the three women were living peacefully aboard their ship, while a flashback showed Elles beginning to confess her growing desire for intimacy with him.

• The Gorosei ordered CP0 to track Roger, warned Garp to watch him, and discussed wiping out Ohara to prevent anyone there from deciphering Poneglyphs.
• An intelligence officer reported that Blue Demon had appeared at Water Seven, scared a Marine Rear Admiral senseless, and flown away in a newly built Adam Tree ship.
• More than a month later, Luo Han and the three women returned to the New World and began searching for Lanternfish while developing the complete Amaterasu.
• Four years later, Luo Han woke beside Chiyue, and he and Elles, Sola, and Chiyue shared breakfast aboard their ship.
• Luo Han recalled that Elles had held a joint adulthood celebration with Chiyue two years earlier, then entered his room drunk and described her growing desire to experience human intimacy.

After a night with Elles, Luo Han gave Chiyue the Thunder Fruit and an Innate Aura Flame to strengthen her, then discovered Elles had caught him giving the flame to others. Over the following two years, he continued searching for Lanternfish and experimenting on Sola while Elles trained Chiyue and kept Luo Han occupied.

• Elles teased Luo Han on her coming-of-age night and spent the night with him, leaving him exhausted and sore the next day.
• Luo Han visited Chiyue to give her a late coming-of-age gift, and she chose to take both the Thunder Fruit and the Innate Aura Flame.
• Luo Han fused the Innate Aura Flame into Chiyue, then found Elles waiting in his room; she confronted him about giving the flame to San Long and Chiyue before they spent another night together.
• Over the next two years, Elles trained Chiyue in Haki and the Navy's Six Powers while she and Luo Han continued sparring, and the group returned to Ark Island monthly as they searched for Lanternfish.
• Luo Han used Sola as a test subject for his Amaterasu research by repeatedly planting thoughts of falling in love with him; Sola eventually fell in love, but her unwavering conviction resisted his control.

Luo Han used his Mind Fruit ability to uncover Sola’s origins and develop Amaterasu, transforming her loyalty from the World Government to himself. Sola submitted to him and offered to reveal the Gorosei’s mission and the World Government’s secrets.

• Luo Han took Sola to Crescent Island alone and warned Elles and Chiyue not to interrupt them.
