After his body’s defensive evolution, Luo Han learned that the Marines had mobilized against the Rocks Pirates and received orders to intercept Marine Admiral Steel-Bones Kong at Warship Island. Luo Han and his companions reached the island before the Marines and waited offshore for the coming battle.

• Luo Han and his companions reached Warship Island before the Marines and waited two kilometers offshore; the Marines arrived near noon.

• Luo Han and Cole flew out to meet the Marines, and Luo Han began a direct fistfight with Steel-Bones Kong while the other Marines attacked Cole.
• Cole overpowered the Marine Admiral candidate and battled him and an elite Vice Admiral, while Sister Shaku and the others suppressed the remaining Marines.
• Luo Han transformed his Psychic Armament to form extra arms and three Telekinetic Tails, then used them to clash with Kong and slash at him with waves of force.

• Kong returned to the air with a red mark on his chest, while Luo Han prepared to continue testing his attacks.

Luo Han fought Marine Admiral Steel-Bones Kong for ten days, relying on his newly strengthened Telekinetic Shield to withstand Kong’s attacks. The Marines and islanders remained away from the battlefield as the clash continued, and Luo Han’s allies discussed his mysterious Devil Fruit.

• Luo Han and Kong exchanged rapid attacks, and Luo Han’s stray laser blast tore through a mountain on Warship Island, prompting pirates and civilians to flee.
• Kong struck Luo Han’s Telekinetic Shield with a powerful punch, creating a massive sea crater and a tsunami that Cole split open to protect Luo Han’s ships.
• Luo Han realized his cells’ Steel Balloon defense had merged with his Psychokinesis, allowing his shield to endure Kong’s strongest blows.
• Kong repeatedly attacked Luo Han’s shield while the islanders sheltered in the mountains and the Marines retreated to their warships by the fifth day.
• On the tenth day, Luo Han and Kong were still fighting as Aixi, Sola, and Sister Shaku discussed Luo Han’s unusual strength and secret Devil Fruit.

Luo Han drove off Kong and learned that the Marines’ campaign had destabilized Rocks’ territories, prompting nations to join the World Government. As Luo Han sailed toward Wano Country with Tian Yue Shi, Rocks hinted at a coming event involving the Celestial Dragons, while the Gorosei revealed they had engineered the Marine campaign to expand the World Government’s rule.

The Gorosei discussed Luo Han’s unusual Devil Fruit ability while he and his companions searched the New World for clues to Tian Yue Shi’s home, Wano Country. A Log Pose led them to a dangerous, terraced island, where they spotted another pirate crew struggling to find a way ashore.

• The Gorosei ordered CP0 to identify Luo Han’s Devil Fruit after learning he had maintained his Psychic Armament Mode for ten days.
• Luo Han’s group admitted Tian Yue Shi had no idea how to return to Wano Country, so they decided to follow legends and search for clues.
• Luo Han and his companions traveled around the New World while Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr led campaigns against pirates, and newspapers suppressed reports about the Rocks Pirates and Luo Han.
• Sister Shaku used the Log Poses to locate a dangerous island, and Luo Han flew both ships toward it with his ability.
• The group reached a towering, layered island surrounded by cliffs and saw a small pirate crew searching for a way to land.

Luo Han landed his ship on an island where animals attacked in a frenzy, while Vitas and the Twin Blades Pirates planned to kill him and Cole. After the crew split up, Vitas's group was surrounded in the forest by enormous black mantises.

• Luo Han sensed that the island's animals were unusually frenzied and carried his ship onto the island, while Tian Yue Shi reluctantly agreed to go ashore.
• Vitas identified Luo Han and Cole and persuaded Jin Bing and the Twin Blades Pirates to attack them to make their name in the New World.
• Luo Han landed near a herd of goats, subdued them when they charged, and had the crew prepare them for a feast.
• Sister Shaku went to explore the island, Aixi joined the cooks, and Tian Yue Shi returned to the ship; Luo Han also went back aboard to conserve his energy.
• Vitas and his battered crew faced a pack of four-meter-tall black mantises emerging from the forest.

The Twin Blades Pirates fought through a swarm of mantises and reached Luo Han’s camp, where Luo Han tried to stage a dramatic confrontation. Vitas and Jin Bing attacked before he could speak, so Luo Han knocked them unconscious with Conqueror’s Haki and sent them away.

• Vitas led the Twin Blades Pirates through the mantis swarm, and the creatures turned back when the pirates neared Luo Han’s ships.
• Vitas and his crew reached the grassland and found Cole, Takk, Aixi, and Sola grilling meat while Luo Han was absent.
• Luo Han appeared before the pirates and silently planned an elaborate show of strength, but Vitas and Jin Bing attacked as soon as he laughed.
• Luo Han unleashed Conqueror’s Haki across ten kilometers, knocking out Vitas, Jin Bing, and their crew.
• Luo Han used Psychokinesis to put the unconscious pirates and their ship at a distance, then returned to grilling meat with Cole and Takk.

After a day of barbecue with the crew, Luo Han discovered that his Psychokinesis had grown stronger and began considering how to develop battle-ending attacks. The chapter left him answering Sister Shaku’s call aboard the ship.

• Sister Shaku found Luo Han and the others barbecuing and learned that his Conqueror’s Haki had knocked out the Green Fork Pirates and nearby animals.
• Tian Yue Shi asked Luo Han for wine, but he refused, so she took the roasted meat he had prepared and praised its flavor.
• The animals gradually woke and fled from Luo Han’s group, while the Green Fork Pirates later woke and were ordered by Takk to start grilling.
• At night, Luo Han tested his stronger Psychokinesis and Psychic Armament Mode, then considered using endless ultimate moves to make up for his lack of decisive attack power.
• Sister Shaku called Luo Han over as he was about to return to his cabin.

Sister Shaku warned Luo Han that a fragrant grass on the island seemed to make animals attack anything unlike themselves, and Luo Han investigated its effects. After confirming the cause, he realized he could combine the fragrance with his Illusion ability to make enemies frenzy.

• Sister Shaku showed Luo Han the fragrant grass and explained that herbivores became more irrational than carnivores when they encountered other kinds.
• Luo Han decided to investigate the island for traces of Wano Country and leave if he found none.
• Luo Han used his Divine Sense from the summit to watch a tiger and a stag turn frenzied and attack each other when they saw one another.
• Luo Han confirmed that the grass's fragrant substance triggered the animals' frenzy and realized he could use Illusion to reproduce and amplify its signal in enemies.

Luo Han left Ring Island after failing to find clues about Wano Country, but realized he could seek someone who knew its location and suggested finding Whitebeard. Tian Yue Shi refused, and the group sailed away while the battered Twin Blades Pirates waited for them to leave.

• Luo Han considered how to develop Illusion by implanting recorded auras into another person's brain, then searched Ring Island for clues about Wano Country without success.
• Tian Yue Shi asked Luo Han whether he had found any clues, and he suggested asking Whitebeard because Whitebeard had been to Wano Country.
• Tian Yue Shi firmly refused to look for Whitebeard, leaving Luo Han to wonder whether she had a reason to stay with him.
• Sister Shaku returned, and Aixi told her that Luo Han and Tian Yue Shi seemed to have argued about finding Whitebeard; the group ate quietly and packed the ship.
• Luo Han sailed past the stranded Twin Blades Pirates without attacking them, and Vitas vowed to protect his companions and eventually defeat Blue Demon.

After arguing with the girl about returning to Wano Country, Luo Han set course for Warship Island while secretly planning to find the Lanternfish. On the voyage, he worked out a possible method for guiding aura through Divine Sense and appeared to be developing a new ability.

• Luo Han refused to search for Whitebeard and ordered the ships to return to Warship Island, while telling Sister Shaku he had a quiet way to find the Lanternfish.
• Golden Lion and his crew also headed toward Warship Island, and Ochoku asked whether Luo Han had fought Steel-Bones Kong to a draw.
• Silver Axe complained that Luo Han’s absence had left the Rocks Pirates under pressure, while the crew reflected on the weakening force of Rocks’s orders.
• Luo Han reviewed how his Mind Fruit abilities worked and realized Divine Sense might provide a way to guide aura.
• Aixi and the others watched Luo Han slap himself as he struggled with the idea, while Cole suspected he was developing another ability.

Luo Han puzzled over how to make others share his excitement, then met Golden Lion and his crew near Warship Island. He taunted them into a fight, pushed his allies away from the clash, and challenged everyone to attack him.

• Luo Han abandoned his attempt to solve how to transmit aura and confused Sister Shaku, Aixi, Sola, and Tian Yue Shi with his private brainstorming.
• Luo Han spoke to Cole about his planned ability for an hour until Cole escaped and warned him not to slap himself again.
• Luo Han and his allies encountered Golden Lion and his crew aboard their badly damaged ship several hundred kilometers from Warship Island.
• Silver Axe blamed Luo Han for their condition, and Luo Han mocked him and Golden Lion for being weak.
• Golden Lion drew his twin swords and challenged Luo Han, who activated Psychic Armament Mode and declared he could fight them all alone.
• Luo Han pushed Sister Shaku and the others away with their ship, then taunted Golden Lion, Ochoku, Silver Axe, and the other pirates to attack him.

Luo Han and Golden Lion fought an escalating battle of Slash Waves over the sea, with their attacks endangering everyone nearby. Golden Lion’s strongest slash failed to break Luo Han’s defense, but Luo Han sensed the aura of a slash within it.

• Golden Lion and Luo Han traded Slash Waves, and their collision sent stray attacks across the sea as Silver Axe and Ochoku protected the others.
• Luo Han relentlessly pursued Golden Lion with countless Slash Waves while using Psychokinesis to shield Cole, Sister Shaku, and the others.
• After Luo Han called him “little lion,” Golden Lion erupted with Conqueror’s Haki and unleashed a powerful slash that cleaved through Luo Han’s attacks.
• Luo Han reinforced his Telekinetic Shield with the Steel Balloon Force Field and held off Golden Lion’s slash as the resulting shockwaves battered both groups.
• Luo Han sensed the aura of a slash within Golden Lion’s attack, which dissipated without breaking through his defense.

Luo Han returned to Warship Island after ending his battle with Golden Lion, then tested his new Slash Wave ability on the mountaintop. Meanwhile, Rocks learned of the fight and continued pursuing information about the Celestial Dragons.

• Luo Han ended his battle with the exhausted Golden Lion and flew back toward Warship Island, while Golden Lion sent Hank and several Rocks Pirates to retrieve the ships.
• Luo Han's sudden acceleration nearly sent Sister Shaku, Aixi, Tian Yue Shi, and Sola flying across the ships, so he apologized and brought them safely to the island.
• Luo Han returned to Warship Island, left everyone else at the harbor, and flew to the mountaintop to test his new ability.
• Luo Han activated Psychic Armament Mode and used a Slash Wave to cut off the mountain's summit, delighting the island residents who welcomed him as their guardian deity.
• Rocks learned from Hank that Luo Han had fought Golden Lion and ordered Pierce to keep searching for information about the Celestial Dragons.

Sister Shaku confronted Hank over her loyalty to the Rocks Pirates and explained that she wanted a life beyond piracy. After Hank told her Captain Rocks would not interfere, she left the crew and headed up the mountain with wine and glasses after hearing a voice.

• Hank accused Sister Shaku of helping Luo Han and letting island nations side with the World Government, while Sister Shaku said she could not control Luo Han or Golden Lion.
• Hank reminded Sister Shaku that the Rocks Pirates had saved her and Aixi, and Sister Shaku recalled that Rocks had rescued them after she used her special Observation Haki to sense the crew.
• Sister Shaku said she had never wanted to be a pirate, had already helped the Rocks Pirates many times, and had agreed to let Aixi go to sea because Aixi chose to leave.
• Sister Shaku told Hank she wanted to open a bar and live peacefully, and Hank said Captain Rocks had ordered them not to interfere before closing the door and ending her membership.
• Sister Shaku thanked Captain Rocks, left the shipyard, then heard a voice and went to a tavern for wine and glasses before heading up the mountain.

Luo Han reassured Sister Shaku that he would protect her and reminisced with her about how their bond had grown. At Warship Island’s banquet, he silenced the crowd of admirers and hinted that he had developed a powerful new Devil Fruit ability.

• Luo Han tried to comfort Sister Shaku by joking that he had been forced to abandon his dream of becoming an interior designer, then promised to protect her.
• Sister Shaku recalled how she had first met Luo Han and Cole and explained that she had come to regard Luo Han as her younger brother.
• Luo Han and Sister Shaku chatted over wine before Cole summoned them to the banquet on Warship Island.
• The crowd cheered and made suggestive remarks when they recognized Luo Han as the Blue Demon, so he used his pressure to drive them away.
• Tian Yue Shi teased Luo Han about his popularity, and he silenced her with a telekinetic slap.
• Cole accidentally raised the subject of Luo Han’s new ability, and Luo Han said it was no longer a secret and promised everyone would see its power in a few days.
