Chapter Summaries

Burufatt and his pirates fought the marines and World Government agents while preparing to escape Fish-Man Island aboard the coated Taurus. He stayed behind to cover their retreat and faced the CP0 agent as the ship departed.

• The white-clad agent revealed that the World Government had attacked because the pirates stole property belonging to the Celestial Dragons, but the pirates celebrated Burufatt's feat instead of losing morale.
• Burufatt spotted the Sea God Army approaching, then saw the flare signaling that the Taurus's coating was complete and ordered his pirates to retreat.
• The pirates used tear gas to incapacitate the marines and reached the Taurus, where Burufatt ordered his men to take the unconscious Blond Fish-Man and infant to the surface without him.
• Burufatt stayed behind to stop the CP0 agent from striking the departing ship, and the two prepared to fight.

Lahel escaped Fish-Man Island aboard the Taurus after Burufatt stayed behind to cover their retreat, and he learned that Burufatt had been searching for him for years. As the ship surfaced, three Marine warships surrounded it, leaving Lahel and the crew trapped.

• The Taurus crew worried about Burufatt but trusted that he could escape into the sea.
• The ship’s doctor accidentally turned on a light while watching Lahel, and the crew feared it would attract sea beasts.
• Lahel woke, learned that Burufatt had rescued him and stayed behind, and reflected on their friendship and his child’s importance to him.
• The Taurus surfaced, and the crew prepared to wait for Burufatt before returning to Fenrir.
• Three Marine warships emerged and surrounded the Taurus as a Marine Vice Admiral challenged the crew.

Vice Admiral Mien surrounded the Taurus and ordered the Marines to destroy it, despite CP0's instruction to capture Lahel alive. As the ship came under heavy fire, Lahel shielded his infant son, then offered to surrender if the Marines spared the others, but Mien ordered the bombardment to continue.

• Mien and two Marine warships intercepted the Taurus as it surfaced, and he confirmed with the White-Clad Agent that Lahel was aboard.
• Mien ordered the Marines to sink the Taurus, and the three warships began a close-range bombardment that set the ship ablaze and killed and wounded its crew.
• Lahel protected his infant son from the explosions and soothed him until the child stopped crying.
• Lahel stood and asked the Beasts Pirates squad captain to care for his child, then offered to surrender in exchange for the crew's safety.
• Mien refused Lahel's plea and ordered the Marines to keep shelling the Taurus.

Lahel and the Taurus crew abandoned their burning ship after Mien’s Marines refused their surrender, while Burufatt’s Acting Captain stayed behind to ram the warship. Mien unleashed a devastating sword technique against the Taurus, but Lahel’s fate and the collision’s outcome remained unresolved.

• Mien’s cannonball destroyed the Taurus’s ram and blasted Lahel across the deck.
• The Acting Captain gave Lahel the baby and ordered the crew to abandon ship, then stayed at the helm.
• Lahel and the other crewmen jumped into the sea as the Acting Captain activated the Taurus’s underwater propulsion device and aimed it at Mien’s warship.
• Mien slowly drew his blade and unleashed Secret Sword: Wrath, tearing apart the Taurus’s bow as the Acting Captain refused to leave the helm.
• As the crimson slash closed in on the Acting Captain, someone used Ultimate Technique—Water Heart: Sea God.

Mien stopped Burufatt’s massive Fish-Man Karate attack and revealed his hatred for the Beasts Pirates before engaging him in a sword fight. The battle continued with Burufatt injured and Mien pressing his advantage.

• Burufatt unleashed Fish-Man Karate: Heart Water: Sea God, forming a gigantic fist of seawater that crashed toward Mien’s ship.
• Mien used Two Sword Style: Sword Net to cut the water fist into rain, then faced Burufatt and revealed his grudge against the Beasts Pirates.
• Mien attacked Burufatt with swift sword strikes, while Burufatt countered with Fish-Man Karate and briefly trapped Mien’s blade in his teeth.
• Mien escaped Burufatt’s grip and noticed five puncture wounds on his abdomen, which Burufatt said came from a CP agent’s ambush.
• Mien judged Burufatt weaker than Oshi and said he would take him down first.

Wounded Burufatt fought Mien, but a Golden Token from Ra blocked Mien’s killing strike and saved his life. Burufatt seized a Marine warship to escape while Alberich let the Beasts survivors go, leaving Mien to take the blame for the failed mission.

• Burufatt, badly wounded and exhausted, prepared to finish his fight with Mien using Demon Tile Straight Punch.
• Mien used Secret Sword: Karma to evade Burufatt’s punch and aimed both swords at his heart, but a golden barrier stopped the blades and blasted Mien back onto his warship.
• Burufatt recognized the nearly depleted Golden Token Ra had given him as the source of the barrier’s protection.
• Burufatt leapt into the sea, cleared the nearby warship with a Sea Current Shoulder Throw, and ordered the Beasts survivors to board it.
• Alberich declined to attack the escaping Beasts crew, ordered only a few symbolic shots, and left Mien to bear responsibility for the failed mission.

After Burufatt escaped the Navy with Lahel and Lahel’s infant son, CP0 learned the fugitives were heading toward the route of Saint Natania’s ship and rushed to intercept them. Natania’s attendants then spotted the pirate ship and Burufatt, prompting the Celestial Dragon to order his capture.

• CP0 learned that Burufatt had escaped aboard a stolen warship, and Alberich blamed the failure on a strange golden-light ability.
• After learning Burufatt had fled southeast, CP0 realized he might cross paths with Saint Natania and ordered the Marines to pursue at full speed.
• Saint Natania abused his newly bought slaves while complaining that CP had not recovered his escaped fish-man slave.
• Burufatt and Lahel agreed that Burufatt would be the infant’s godfather and planned to ask the pirate crew’s scholars to name the child.
• Natania’s agent identified Burufatt’s ship as likely pirate-controlled and reported that the escaped fish-man slave was aboard, so Natania ordered the Marines to capture him.

Burufatt ordered his crew to attack an approaching Celestial Dragon ship, hoping to protect his companions and godson. Meanwhile, Ra and Kaido tracked Zayn to a hidden laboratory on Primal Island, where Kaido confronted him for failing to report as agreed.

• Burufatt realized his injured crew could not escape the Celestial Dragons and ordered them to open fire before the pursuing marines caught up.

• Ra found a disguised wall in the ruins and knocked on it, but no one answered.
• Kaido smashed through the false wall and exposed a hidden laboratory inside the mountain.
• Kaido found Zayn on the toilet and demanded an explanation for not reporting as agreed.

• Kaido demanded to know why Zayn had not come to find him, and Zayn struggled to come up with an excuse.

• Ra revealed she had accompanied Kaido from the start and had heard Zayn planning his escape.

• Zayn nervously insisted that he wanted to join the Beasts Pirates, and Ra assured him that he could research freely with the crew’s funding.
• Zayn accepted a golden officer’s seal engraved with QUEEN and became a Great Poster, then became absorbed in studying the feather.
• Ra waited on the island while Kaido traveled alone to West Blue.
• As the Celestial Dragons’ ship overwhelmed Burufatt’s damaged warship with cannon fire, Burufatt urged Lahel to escape with his child and gave him his JACK feather seal.
• The child grabbed the feather and stopped crying, and Burufatt chose to stay with his crew while Lahel agreed to flee for his child’s sake.
• Burufatt gave Lahel a prepared gift for a red-haired girl named Oshi and said farewell as Lahel escaped with the child.

Lahel escaped underwater with the child while Burufatt and his exhausted crew confronted the Celestial Dragon’s agents. Burufatt was badly wounded by a White-Clad Agent as Marines approached, and Lahel was caught by Alberich at the Taurus wreck.

• Lahel left Burufatt’s ship with the child and swam toward the wreckage of the Taurus to find supplies and a Log Pose.

• Lahel surfaced beside the Taurus wreck and found Alberich and his Marines searching it; Alberich threatened him and the child if he tried to escape.

• Saint Natania ordered Mien brought along as bait, and Mien agreed to search for Alberich before noticing the darkening sky.

Natania’s cruise ship and Mien’s Marine warship were caught beneath supernatural black clouds and golden lightning as a powerful enemy approached. The sky tore open, and an enormous unknown creature descended, terrifying everyone below.

• Golden lightning blasted the sea beside Natania’s ship, and an unknown creature roared as it descended through a tear in the sky.

A colossal Crimson Dragon descended from the storm and attacked the ships, revealing itself to be Oshi and recognizing Mien as the man who had killed him. Mien’s strongest sword technique failed to harm Oshi, whose second mouth began charging an attack as everyone sensed death approaching.

• A thunderous roar from the Crimson Dragon shattered the ships’ decks and incapacitated many soldiers, while Mien and a white-clothed CP0 agent shielded those nearby.
