• Lin Qi spent eight million Points to unlock Human Life Technology, gaining ideas for experiments into the human body.
• Lin Qi saw that Eternal Energy Technology was available for seven million Points because West Sea had already developed its first stage.

Lin Qi and Robin tracked down Golden Lion’s floating islands and discovered his abandoned research and a crew of isolated, harmless old Pirates. They confronted the crew but had not yet revealed why they had come when the chapter ended.

• Lin Qi learned that Eternal Energy research would take decades and decided to let the West Sea staff continue studying it without spending his emergency Points.

• The Pirates mistook Lin Qi for a newcomer or Golden Lion’s relative, and Robin revealed herself and told them they were wrong.

Lin Qi found Golden Lion at a hidden research facility on Skypiea and tried to recruit him as a partner. Golden Lion rejected the offer until Lin Qi offered to heal his legs, prompting Golden Lion to leap off Skypiea.

• Golden Lion demanded proof that Lin Qi could regrow a severed leg, and Lin Qi offered to restore one for free.

• Lin Qi asked Golden Lion to help transport a tree, and Golden Lion boasted that he could move thirty islands with his power.

Lin Qi brought Golden Lion and the others to Elbaf to move the World Tree, then chose a permanent Kizaru template as his reward for pulling it from the island. As the group struggled to uproot the tree, Lin Qi transformed into a gigantic Kirin-like monster to help.

• Golden Lion agreed to travel with Lin Qi to Elbaf in hopes of getting his legs restored.
• Lin Qi flew to the World Tree's crown, discovered a freshwater lake, and learned from Robin that the tree erupted in powerful waterfalls every four months.
• Lin Qi selected the Kizaru Template, which would let him enter Kizaru form for one hour each day if they pulled the World Tree from Elbaf.

• Lin Qi transformed into a gigantic Kirin-like monster with a black-and-red halo behind it.

• Lin Qi, Golden Lion, Fujitora, Kuina, Tashigi, and the Candlelight Divine Beast pulled the World Tree from Elbaf, causing the island to split apart and sink.

• Diamante took TB23 Powder while leaving the more lethal TB24 Agent hidden, then slipped out of his room.

During interrogation, he revealed the World Government’s plan, and Doflamingo and Gion tried to contact Lin Qi, who could not hear his Den Den Mushi while transporting the World Tree in Candlelight Form.

• Diamante secretly mixed poison into the Kingdom’s lakes and streams, then entered the Royal Palace to poison its wells.

• Doflamingo and Gion tried to contact Lin Qi, but he could not hear his Den Den Mushi while transporting the World Tree in Candlelight Form.

• Lin Qi learned from Gion what had happened in the West Sea and told her not to alert the enemy while he hurried toward Dressrosa with Kuina.
• Gion, Mark, Robin, and the others agreed to hide the poisoning and secretly prepare an antidote rather than warn the citizens or the World Government.
• As the poison spread, more than ten thousand residents fell ill, and Diamante answered Saint Saturn's call while the officers listened.
• Diamante told Saint Saturn that the West Sea officers seemed unwell, and Saint Saturn revealed the poison would kill them after three days; Tom then drank the poisoned water.
• When the poison fully took effect, more than a million residents and the royal capital's soldiers became incapacitated, and Saint Saturn, Kizaru, an Army Admiral, and an unfamiliar man appeared nearby.

Saint Saturn led an attack on the fallen royal capital, but Kakashi and Moria trapped him and his companions and transported them to a deserted island, where Gion and the others prepared to fight. Saint Saturn summoned reinforcements, and Im sent Saint Nashuro and Saint Pete's extracted spheres of light to the Phantom House.

• Saint Nashuro gave the three men a chance to attack, and Gild Tesoro began their Combined Attack Technique by turning the ground into gold.

Tesoro, Doflamingo, and Moria joined their powers to create a colossal Golden Shadow Warrior, while the main battlefield split into separate fights against the World Government’s forces. Saint Saturn remained to face Robin, Hina, Loki, and Kuina, and Kizaru was chased through the streets by a cat, a mouse, and a dog.

• Tesoro, Doflamingo, and Moria built a three-hundred-meter Golden Shadow Warrior and drew Saint Nashuro’s eager attention.
• Ilulu charged Saint Eugene and apparently killed him, but he reappeared and led her away in pursuit.

• Gu Jian left to face Enel, while Saint Saturn stayed behind after the other high-level combatants departed.
• Robin and Hina confronted Saint Saturn and warned the others about his awakened Devil Fruit; Loki and Kuina remained with them as the less resilient fighters withdrew.
• Kizaru was chased through the streets by a cat, a mouse, and a dog, and wondered whether a second Glint-Glint Fruit existed.

Tom transformed into Kizaru and chased the real Kizaru across the sky, while Ilulu fought Saint Eugene in the forest and discovered the danger of his awakened Phantom-Phantom Fruit. Kizaru fled toward Saint Saturn and the others, and Ilulu stood back up after Saint Eugene’s shot struck her head.

• Tom copied Kizaru’s appearance and Glint-Glint Fruit abilities, forcing Kizaru to flee while Jerry and Spike rode along with Tom.
• Tom pursued Kizaru to the Royal Palace, where Kizaru used a Golden Den Den Mushi to locate Saint Saturn and the others, then escaped over the sea with Tom following.
• Ilulu tracked Saint Eugene through the forest by smell and punched him out of hiding.
• Saint Eugene revealed that his awakened Phantom-Phantom Fruit let his phantoms become real, then created five hundred copies that attacked Ilulu with sniper fire.
• Ilulu’s Dragon Scale clothes withstood the barrage, but Saint Eugene’s real body shot her between the eyebrows; she got back up, leaving him shocked by her toughness.

Ilulu and Saint Eugene fought in the forest, and Ilulu unleashed a vast magma-laced fire attack that destroyed his clones and their cover. Saint Eugene then fired a Conqueror's Haki-infused bullet through Ilulu's transformed dragon body, leaving her fate uncertain.

• Ilulu transformed into a dragon and slaughtered Saint Eugene's clones, but his chained bullets pierced her scales and wounded her.
• Ilulu unleashed Dragon's Roar, burning the forest and killing the clones while Saint Eugene survived beneath them.
• With the forest gone, Ilulu hunted Saint Eugene as he created more clones, and he decided to use his ultimate shot.
• Saint Eugene infused a bullet with Conqueror's Haki, destroying his rifle as the Phantom-Phantom Fruit turned the shot into countless bullet clones.
• Ilulu transformed into a huge fire dragon, but the real bullet pierced her body and left a ten-meter-wide hole.

Ilulu defeated Saint Eugene’s pursuit but failed to prevent him from escaping, while Galette survived his shot with her Butter-Butter Fruit. Elsewhere, Doflamingo, Moria, and their companion fought Saint Nashuro from inside their giant construct, but he remained too quick for their attacks.

• Ilulu shrank from dragon form to human form to survive Saint Eugene’s attack, then pursued him as he fled among numerous clones.
• Ilulu destroyed most of Saint Eugene’s clones with magma fireballs but mistakenly punched a fake, allowing him to escape her pursuit.
• Galette and Tashigi intercepted Saint Eugene, but his shot blew off Galette’s head before he escaped into the forest.
• Galette reformed her head and body with her Butter-Butter Fruit, and Ilulu treated her wound before leading the two women onward.
• Saint Nashuro failed to transfer Doflamingo, Moria, and their companion out of the giant construct, then attacked it with First Generation Kitetsu.
• Doflamingo, Moria, and their companion tried to strike Saint Nashuro with their giant’s sword and white-thread spears, but he teleported away from their attacks.

Doflamingo, Moria, and Gild Tesoro trapped Saint Nashuro inside a sealed island and sank it beneath the sea, hoping to neutralize his powers. Saint Nashuro broke the island open, but the flooding left him submerged and apparently helpless as he sank toward the seabed.

• Doflamingo, Moria, and Gild Tesoro combined their awakened powers to reshape the island into a waterproof sphere and drag it underwater with Saint Nashuro inside.
• Moria and the others believed Saint Nashuro was trapped, but he pierced the sphere with a sword aura and then cut it in half with a Flying Slash.
• As seawater flooded the island, Gild Tesoro led the three of them into a hollow boulder and sealed its entrance with stone and waterproof clay.
• Saint Nashuro was swept out into the ocean, where the seawater weakened him and he sank toward the seabed while apparently allowing himself to suffocate.
