• Longinus explained that advanced Armament Haki let him isolate and redirect the eruption of Kuma's Devil Fruit ability.
• Kuma recognized the strength of Longinus's technique but refused to end the battle.

Longinus defeated Kuma after allowing him to use Yin Healing Bullet, a technique that expelled wounds and fatigue. He then revealed that he had engineered the fight to obtain the technique for himself as a way to break through his strength bottleneck.

Longinus endured Kuma’s accumulated pain to push his Observation Haki’s range, while Minos guarded him. A pink-haired girl found Kuma unconscious and began sneaking toward him, unaware that Minos had spotted her.

He retrieved the Golden Bell and brought it to the Sanctuary, where the Chief rang the Lamp of Shandora, signaling the end of the war and renewing a four-hundred-year-old promise.

• The vision cut off before revealing Sky Island’s fate, and Longinus said the future had changed since he arrived.

Longinus convinced Gan Fall and the Skandia Chief to search for Devil Fruits and bring Bika under their attention as the supposed source of Sky Island’s future disaster. In Bika, a wingless young man who had been abused by the locals witnessed the arrival of Longinus’s forces and saw that Longinus had no wings either.

• Longinus told Gan Fall and the Skandia Chief that they could not stop the coming disaster and ordered them to find Devil Fruits for him to identify.

• The young man noticed that Longinus had no wings and wondered whether he was not alone in being abandoned by God.

Longinus conquered Bika by overwhelming its people with his Aura and left Gan Fall to take over and spread their beliefs. After a fruit search came up empty, Longinus summoned Enel and judged that his Rumble-Rumble Fruit skills made him worth training.

• The bearded God of Bika rejected Gan Fall and the Skandia Chief’s proposal, while Longinus claimed he had come to prevent Bika’s destruction in nine years.

• Longinus assessed Enel’s powerful Rumble-Rumble Fruit abilities and considered him worth training, while Enel nervously wondered why he had been summoned.

• Longinus told Enel that he understood his hatred and had seen him destroy Bika and rule surrounding Sky Islands brutally in the future.
• Enel asked whether Longinus intended to punish him, and Longinus said he would make him study and learn reason instead.
• Longinus presented Enel with books on his theories, justice, history, law, and world affairs, and Enel felt overwhelmed when he tried to read them.
• Longinus promised Enel strength and a chance to return triumphantly if he mastered the books, but threatened to destroy him if he failed.
• After struggling with doubts about his intelligence and longing for revenge, Enel fell to his knees and declared that he wanted to study.

Longinus traveled with Vice Admiral Giandor to Elbaf, learning about the island’s harsh seas, its War Trees, and the Giants’ warrior traditions.
