Chapter Summaries

Big Mom discovered that Apollo bombs had devastated Biscuit Island, and she confronted Doflamingo by Den Den Mushi. The two agreed to negotiate in the Hysse Waters with Red Hair as arbitrator, while Su Xiao learned the meeting would take place the next day.

• Big Mom woke to the explosion and found Biscuit Island engulfed in flames, with much of her cake supplies and weapons destroyed.
• Big Mom’s children reported that Smoothie had not found Root and that the battle at Dressrosa had not secured the island.

• Doflamingo and Big Mom agreed to meet the next day in the Hysse Waters, with Red Hair arbitrating the negotiations.
• Doflamingo told Su Xiao that Red Hair and Big Mom would attend the meeting, which would take place outside Big Mom’s territory.

Katakuri ended Big Mom’s attack on Dressrosa and planned to return to Whole Cake Island as the crisis in their territory worsened. Su Xiao opened two legendary Treasure Chests, gaining the Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit, and considered who might use it.

• Big Mom ordered Katakuri to end the war in Dressrosa and return to Whole Cake Island, though Katakuri insisted Cracker’s death needed an explanation.
• Su Xiao received Bubu Wang back at the villa after his trip to Totto Land and prepared to open two legendary Treasure Chests.
• Su Xiao opened Spero’s Treasure Chest and received only Legendary Honor and Paradise Coins, disappointing him.
• Su Xiao opened the second Treasure Chest and obtained Legendary Honor, Grandmaster's Strength, Soul Crystals, and the Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit.
• Su Xiao considered the fruit’s weaknesses and its potential uses, while Bubu Wang refused to eat it and A'Mu could not safely consume it.

Su Xiao prepared to trade Cracker's Biscuit Fruit with Charlotte Linlin and joined Doflamingo's party as they sailed toward the Hysteria Sea alongside Katakuri. At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku learned that Charlotte Linlin, Red Hair, Doflamingo, and Katakuri were all heading there and suspected the rival factions had made peace.

• Su Xiao recognized that Charlotte Linlin would pay dearly for the Biscuit Fruit because her territory depended on Cracker's biscuits, but he worried that showing her the fruit might provoke her before they could negotiate.
• Sugar told Su Xiao it was time to leave, and Doflamingo's pink ship departed Dressrosa with Su Xiao, Pica, and more than two hundred loyal pirates aboard.

• At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku fed a classified file mentioning the Itmira Plan, weapon construction, Pluton, and Dre to his goat.
• A Marine messenger reported that Charlotte Linlin, Red Hair, Doflamingo, and Katakuri were heading toward the Hysteria Sea, and Sengoku suspected the factions had made peace.

Sengoku and Garp discussed Ace’s capture, the danger posed by the gathering Emperors, and the Marines’ plans for the New World. At the Xies Sea negotiations, Su Xiao ignored Doflamingo’s change of mind and boarded Red Hair’s ship to speak with Big Mom.

• Sengoku refused to let Garp visit Ace until the capture became public, then offered to arrange an inspection of Impel Down’s sixth level.

• Doflamingo and Big Mom fired warning shots as their ships arrived, then the four crews gathered aboard the Red Force.
• Doflamingo asked Su Xiao to join the negotiations, changed his mind, and told him to stay aboard their ship, but Su Xiao leaped onto the Red Force anyway.

Red Hair mediated negotiations between Big Mom and Doflamingo, who each tried to use the war’s losses to demand compensation. Big Mom pushed for a large share of Doflamingo’s profits, and the chapter ended before they reached an agreement.

• Big Mom demanded that Su Xiao join the negotiations, and Doflamingo agreed after Red Hair arranged a seat for him.
• Red Hair opened the talks as mediator, and Big Mom blamed Doflamingo for starting the conflict.
• Doflamingo proposed calling the conflict a mutual dispute and offered his Sabaody Archipelago businesses in exchange for Mahabaise.
• Big Mom could not produce Mahabaise, who had been tortured to death, and Doflamingo recognized that she still intended to take compensation.
• Big Mom demanded half the profits from Doflamingo’s Sabaody Archipelago businesses and at least half of his underworld profits.

Doflamingo and Su Xiao offered Big Mom the process for manufacturing artificial Zoan Devil Fruits, then used a confidential document and information about inherited scientific abilities to persuade her to accept. The deal left them risking retaliation from the Vinsmoke family in the North Blue.

• Doflamingo refused to hand over the Sabaody auction house or his underground-world profits and offered Big Mom artificial Zoan Devil Fruits instead.

After Doflamingo and Big Mom finalized a deal, Su Xiao confronted Charlotte Linlin aboard Red Hair’s ship with the Biscuit Fruit and an unstable Apollo. Katakuri foresaw that Su Xiao truly dared to detonate it as Big Mom approached.

• Doflamingo convinced Big Mom that Vinsmoke Judge’s Lineage Factor research could lead to artificial Devil Fruits, making the Vinsmoke Family her next target.
• Doflamingo and Big Mom finalized their negotiations, including a promise of five billion Beli in weapons that Doflamingo planned to fulfill with empty crates.

• Big Mom agreed to negotiate with Su Xiao aboard her ship, while Red Hair refused to get involved in their private transaction.
• Su Xiao walked toward Big Mom’s ship with Apollo and warned Red Hair that Portgas D. Ace was due to be executed soon.
• Su Xiao gave Red Hair a cryptic hint about what he knew, then leaped onto Big Mom’s ship.
• Red Hair asked Benn Beckman about Su Xiao, and Benn explained that Byakuya had worked on secret World Government projects and defected after causing trouble at Enies Lobby.

Su Xiao used the Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit as leverage to negotiate a costly deal with the Big Mom Pirates, then gave Red Hair information about the planned execution of Portgas D. Ace. The Big Mom Pirates sailed off to retrieve the agreed payment while Red Hair learned that the execution was at least half a month away.

• Su Xiao explained that he had mentioned Portgas D. Ace to Red Hair to secure protection, and Red Hair stayed behind to learn more about Ace.
• Su Xiao put away Apollo and told Big Mom he would sell the Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit to the Marines if she showed no sincerity.
• Su Xiao demanded valuable blades, Devil Fruits, antique jewelry, and Soul Crystals, prompting Big Mom to erupt in anger before Katakuri continued negotiations.
• Su Xiao and the Big Mom Pirates agreed that he would hand over the Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit in exchange for five Supreme Grade Blades, at least two antique jewels, and twelve large Soul Crystals.
• The Big Mom Pirates sailed away to retrieve the payment, and Su Xiao told Red Hair that the Marines planned to publicly execute Portgas D. Ace and would summon the Shichibukai beforehand.

Su Xiao completed his exchange with Big Mom’s Pirates and helped end the siege of Dressrosa, but the Fourth Ring of his promotion quest left him facing a mission he believed would be nearly suicidal.

• Doflamingo agreed to keep working with Su Xiao despite suspecting his schemes, and Bubu Wang returned from exploring the sea.
• Katakuri delivered twelve Soul Crystals, five famous blades, and ornaments in exchange for the Biscuit Fruit, then sailed toward Dressrosa.
• Su Xiao chose two pendants from the ornaments while Katakuri collected the remaining treasure and left without speaking to him.
• Doflamingo announced the war was over as Big Mom’s ships withdrew from Dressrosa, completing Su Xiao’s third-ring quest.
• Reincarnation Paradise announced the contractors’ standings, named Su Xiao the pirate reputation leader, and sent him the Fourth Ring quest, which he feared would get him killed.

Su Xiao activated the final stage of his Promotion/Main Quest, which required him to kill Saint Charlos and Saint Roswald and survive the World Government’s retaliation for 12 hours. He began preparing for the mission in Sabaody in 15 days, while planning to collect the blade Doflamingo owed him and upgrade Dragon Slayer Flash.

• After Katakuri left, Su Xiao completed the third quest stage and activated the final stage of his Promotion/Main Quest.
• Su Xiao reasoned that Kutu, Qian Meng, Man Rock, and three other Tier Five Contractors were likely members of the Wutong Tree Adventurer Team, whose power and actions were restricted in the One Piece World.
• Su Xiao learned that he had to kill Saint Charlos and Saint Roswald in Sabaody and survive for 12 hours, with forced execution as the penalty for failure.
• Su Xiao decided to use his remaining preparation time before the Celestial Dragons appeared in 15 days.
• Su Xiao headed toward the King's Plateau to collect the supreme-grade blade Doflamingo owed him so he could try to improve Dragon Slayer Flash.

Su Xiao received Moon Severer from Violet and used his nine Gold-quality blades to advance Dragon Slayer Flash. After devouring all nine weapons, the blade's Edge Value reached only 91%, leaving its advancement unfinished.

• Su Xiao finished preparing six Apollos for use in the One Piece World and planned to leave Dressrosa after receiving a supreme-grade blade.
• Violet delivered Moon Severer to Su Xiao and hurried from the villa, frightened by him and Aum.
• Su Xiao added Moon Severer to his collection of Gold-quality blades and began using Supreme Edge to feed them to Dragon Slayer Flash.
• Dragon Slayer Flash devoured eight blades and reached 77% Edge Value.
• Dragon Slayer Flash devoured the final blade, White Fish, but its Edge Value stopped at 91%.

Su Xiao promoted Dragon Slayer Flash to legendary quality, then arranged to leave Dressrosa with Doflamingo's help. Before dawn, the Big Mom Pirates surrounded him, and Su Xiao prepared to fight his way out.

• Su Xiao fed nine gold-grade blades and his Slaughtering Short Blade to Dragon Slayer Flash, raising its Edge Value to 100% and promoting it to legendary quality.
• Su Xiao tested Dragon Slayer Flash's immense sharpness and agreed with Doflamingo to continue their Apollo cooperation while arranging a ship and a Den Den Mushi.
• Doflamingo gave Su Xiao a Den Den Mushi after Su Xiao said he was heading to the North Blue, though Su Xiao had no intention of revealing his real destination.
• Two hours later, Su Xiao woke and learned from A'Mu that the Donquixote Family was retreating toward the underground port; Bubu Wang then warned him to run.
• Bubu Wang reported that more than a thousand elites and several dangerous unknown forces had surrounded them, and Su Xiao recognized the Big Mom Pirates' retaliation and drew his blade to fight.

Su Xiao fought his way through Marines surrounding the villa and tried to escape, while Admiral Kizaru arrived at the port to stop Doflamingo from interfering. After Garp struck Su Xiao through the villa and sent him flying into the courtyard, Kizaru intercepted him.

• Doflamingo confronted the Marine operation, but Kizaru arrived and told him to stay out of it.
• Su Xiao fled down the villa stairs, using explosions and Dragon Slayer Flash to cut through waves of Marines.
• Garp charged into the villa and pursued Su Xiao through the bloodied stairwell.
• Su Xiao used Dragon Shadow Flash to evade an attack, but Garp's punch shattered his Energy Shield and blasted him through the villa into the courtyard.
• Su Xiao charged out of the courtyard, but Kizaru appeared in front of him, and Su Xiao prepared to activate Demon Hunter's Moment.

Surrounded by Kizaru, Garp, and Vice Admiral Tsuru, Su Xiao decided he could not escape Dressrosa by fighting and surrendered to preserve his strength for a chance to break free at sea. Kizaru kicked him down, and the Marines restrained him.

• Kizaru, Garp, and Vice Admiral Tsuru surrounded Su Xiao and warned him that he could not escape.
• Su Xiao weighed his chances against the three Marines and kept Demon Hunter's Moment ready while Bubu Wang watched nearby.
• Su Xiao stored his equipment, including Dragon Slayer Flash and Apollo, then told Kizaru he surrendered.
• Kizaru used Light-Speed Kick to send Su Xiao flying, and the Marines rushed in to shackle and chain him.

Su Xiao was captured and taken aboard a Marine warship, where Garp, Tsuru, and Kizaru mistook his protective suit and apparent weakness for signs of a Devil Fruit ability. Imprisoned under heavy Seastone restraints, he asked Tsuru what would happen if the ship sank, while Bubu Wang signaled that it could sink the vessel.

• Marines shackled Su Xiao and discovered a transparent protective film covering his clothes, which Tsuru tested and collected.
• Garp, Tsuru, and Kizaru concluded that Su Xiao was a weakened spatial-type Devil Fruit user, and Tsuru ordered the Marines to restrain him with Seastone.
• Kizaru searched for Bubu Wang, who was nearby, and the Marines escorted Su Xiao to five warships with Bubu Wang aboard.
• The Marines locked Su Xiao in a Seastone-reinforced cell, where Tsuru and Kizaru kept watch.
• Su Xiao asked Tsuru what would happen if the ship sank, and Bubu Wang signaled that it could sink the vessel within ten minutes.

Su Xiao learned that the Marines were taking him to Enies Lobby and endured three days of imprisonment under Vice Admiral Tsuru’s watch. As the ship docked at an island beside the Red Line, the Marines fitted him with a mechanical exoskeleton to control his movements.

• Su Xiao used Bubu Wang to learn that the Marines were not heading to Mary Geoise or Impel Down, but to Enies Lobby.
• Su Xiao provoked Vice Admiral Tsuru and hinted that Doflamingo’s trade network was valuable to the Marines.
• Su Xiao refused the Marines’ food and spent three days conserving his strength while Bubu Wang monitored the ship.
• At dawn on the fourth day, the ship docked at an artificial island connected to the Red Line.
• The Marines fitted Su Xiao with a Vegapunk-made exoskeleton and led him off the ship with rods and chains controlling his movements.

Su Xiao was escorted across the Red Line to the first half of the Grand Line, where he escaped from the Marines’ warship by cutting through his Seastone restraints and the hull. He dove into the sea and headed toward the nearby Sabaody Archipelago.

• Vice Admiral Tsuru’s forces escorted Su Xiao across the Red Line, while Bubu Wang secretly blended in with the female Marines and passed inspection.
• Kizaru left the escort, leaving Vice Admiral Tsuru and Garp to guard Su Xiao aboard the warship.
• Su Xiao sensed his Alchemy Bombs explode beneath the warship and used Dragon Slayer Flash to cut through his Seastone shackles.
• Su Xiao slashed through the hull, flooded the cell, and used the seawater to escape Vice Admiral Tsuru.
• Su Xiao put on his diving equipment and swam toward the Sabaody Archipelago.

Su Xiao escaped into the sea and used his legendary Dragon Slayer Flash to damage the warship while Garp pursued him underwater. Garp realized Su Xiao was trying to outlast his breath, but when he turned back toward the surface, Su Xiao wounded his arm and left the chase unresolved.

• Su Xiao slashed at the sinking warship from underwater, injuring marines as Vice Admiral Tsuru emerged and ordered them not to jump into the sea.
• Three female marines jumped overboard, and one resurfaced in terror after mistaking Bubu Wang for a shark.

• Garp understood that Su Xiao was waiting for him to run out of oxygen and turned toward the surface.
• Su Xiao reversed course and slashed Garp's arm, cutting through his Armament Haki with Dragon Slayer Flash.

• Garp attacked Su Xiao underwater, but the seawater weakened his punches while Su Xiao's slashes cut through his defenses.
• After taking repeated slashes, Garp fled toward the surface as Su Xiao pursued him; Garp warned Vice Admiral Tsuru that the others should not fight Su Xiao.
• A three-masted pirate ship approached, and Su Xiao's Blade Glow split it apart and sent it beneath the sea.
• Garp vented his anger on the pirates who swam toward the nearby boats while Su Xiao escaped with Bubu Wang.
• Su Xiao surfaced, inflated a life raft, and lay down exhausted after days without water and his fight with Garp.
