Chapter Summaries

Imu and the World Government captured the Island-Swallowing Lanternfish and discovered over five hundred tons of Pure Gold, while Aokiji rescued Dr. Misukina Aciér and his daughter Olga. The gold was sent to the Ark, and Kureha revealed that Olga’s supposedly incurable South Blue Emperor Fever had been cured decades earlier.

• Imu rejected Judge’s proposal for Germa Kingdom to join the Otherworld war but allowed him to redeem its former territory for twenty billion Beli.
• Kureha dropped her Pure Gold ring into the sea, and Aokiji froze the approaching Island-Swallowing Lanternfish before Marines captured it.
• CP0 searched the lanternfish’s stomachs, fought dinosaurs, and found Dr. Misukina Aciér and his daughter Olga.
• Aokiji gave Olga her father’s diary, and she learned that he had created Pure Gold to save her rather than out of greed.
• Dr. Aciér called Olga’s illness South Blue Emperor Fever, and Kureha said a specific cure had been developed fifty-four years earlier.
• The Five Elders reported finding a twenty-centimeter piece of Pure Gold and over five hundred tons inside the lanternfish, and Imu ordered it sent to the Ark.

The Five Elders obeyed Imu’s order to send the Pure Gold to the moon, where Imu discovered that its immortality would hinder his growth. As he considered how to use the vast supply, he recalled that only one person could retain the eternal life granted by the Perennial Youth Operation.

• Saint Topman Warcury ordered Alexander Watson to have the Air Force and Cipher Pol secretly escort the Pure Gold to Noah on the moon.
• Imu watched the Five Elders comply and decided to keep the Pure Gold’s distribution strictly limited and monitored.
• Kizaru delivered nearly six hundred tons of Pure Gold to Noah, where Enel introduced himself and challenged Kizaru as a future Air Force Admiral.
• Imu opened the steel sphere and learned that Pure Gold’s slowing effect would prevent his body from improving through training.
• Imu recalled the legend that the Perennial Youth Operation’s eternal life could belong to only one person at a time.

Kong received a Pure Gold ring from the World Government, while Sea Star accelerated its development by using labor and resources from other worlds. The chapter ended with officials launching plans for new infrastructure and airship routes to connect the seas.

• Stussy delivered Kong a diamond ring concealing Pure Gold, and Kong pledged himself more firmly to the World Government after learning he could keep it while serving.
• The World Government expanded construction projects across Sea Star and ordered another five hundred thousand laborers and renowned architects brought in from the Demon Slayer World.
• Tesoro proposed adapting the Demon Slayer Corps and the Kabane World into manga, and the Publicity Department approved a Manga Office to produce both series.
• Officials found that Reverse Mountain could not handle future traffic and chose to develop high-altitude airship routes using modified Hans Tiger airships.
• The Construction, Science, and Industrial divisions began preparing airship bases, researching the vessels, and gathering manufacturing materials from the Demon Slayer World.

On Marine Calendar 1500, Kagaya Ubuyashiki dreamed that Sanemi Shinazugawa died in an ambush after the Army entered another world through a Star Gate, and he warned Mihawk and Imu. Imu relayed the warning to the Five Elders and was left wondering whether the Army would be ambushed when the third Star Gate opened.

• Kagaya Ubuyashiki woke from a vivid dream in which Sanemi Shinazugawa and a dark-clad army entered an arid world through a Star Gate, came under artillery fire, and Sanemi's funeral followed.
• Kagaya told Amane that his dream might have shown the future through his changing Future Sight ability.
• Kagaya and Amane went to Celestial Dragon City, where Kagaya explained his warning to Mihawk.
• Mihawk thanked Kagaya, reported the dream to Imu, and relayed Imu's instruction to inform the Five Elders.
• Imu wondered whether the Army would be ambushed as soon as the third Star Gate opened.

The Five Elders and Imu took Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s prophecy of an ambush beyond the third Star Gate seriously and debated whether to proceed. They settled on opening it only after assembling a powerful force and defenses, while Imu began investigating how Kagaya could foresee another world.

• CIPHER POL agents questioned Kagaya Ubuyashiki, and the World Government accepted that his prophecy about an ambush beyond the third Star Gate might be true.
• The Five Elders discussed how the enemy could know the Star Gate’s location, defeat reconnaissance teams, and prepare artillery in advance.
• Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro argued that the Star Gate should still be opened after the World Government prepared troops, high-level fighters, aerial defenses, and fortifications.
• Saint Topman Warcury ordered the Construction Department to send Pica to build defenses at RL1558 Area, while the plan called for three hundred thousand soldiers and two thousand heavy howitzers.
• Imu used Star Fate to watch Kagaya Ubuyashiki and wondered whether the Ubuyashiki ability or its method of seeing the future had changed.

Imu reasoned that Observation Haki future sight relied on perception and calculation, while the Ubuyashiki Clan’s ability was a genuine time-based power, and he ordered the World Government to study and cultivate those with precognitive potential. The Five Elders then argued over which former Demon Slayer Corps members would be assigned to the military, CIPHER POL, and the Ministry of Police.

• Imu concluded that Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s visions might depend on Sanemi Shinazugawa and other Demon Slayer Corps members, so he ordered former members transferred to government agencies and Kiriya Ubuyashiki’s ability cultivated.
• Imu found seven-year-old Shyarly on Fish-Man Island and ordered her sent to the Ubuyashiki Clan along with the Ubuyashiki quadruplet sisters.
• Saint Topman Warcury dispatched officials to Wano Island and Fish-Man Island, while Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro and Saint Shepherd Ju Peter prepared files on former Hashira for reassignment.
• Saint Jaygarcia Saturn demanded that the Ministry of Police retain at least three Hashira as Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro assigned several to the military and Saint Shepherd Ju Peter claimed others for CIPHER POL.
• Saint Jaygarcia Saturn objected that some selected Hashira did not kill people and questioned CIPHER POL’s choices, but Saint Shepherd Ju Peter argued that their warning abilities and Breathing Techniques made them useful.

The World Government prepared Star Gate Camp No. 3 as a heavily fortified first battlefield and sent scouts and researchers through Star Gate No. 3. The first team was killed by sudden artillery fire, leaving the World Government with only basic air-quality data.

• The Five Elders assigned primary Breathing Techniques to departments according to their needs, while Sea Ninja Village abandoned Sound Breathing and sought Serpent Breathing and Insect Breathing instructors.
• Pica used his Stone-Stone Fruit to build fortifications, roads, and underground tunnels at the RL1558 region as three thousand workers dug trenches.
• After the defenses were completed, Akainu deployed three hundred thousand Army troops, while Kizaru and Azure Dragon led twenty Flying Warships into position.
• Six Cipher Pol agents and four researchers entered Star Gate No. 3 voluntarily to scout and test the air on the other side.
• Four scouts were killed by sudden explosions, and artillery fire struck the Star Gate side, leaving the World Government with evidence that the air and oxygen levels were safe.

After the first scouting party was destroyed, the Otherworld Strategy Committee sent twenty Cipher Pol agents through the Star Gate to assess the enemy’s weapons and forces. The new team was almost entirely wiped out, while Plan and Belloc’s final aerial footage revealed that the gate stood before a vast, heavily fortified military presence.

• Chairman Fernandez and Vice Admiral Kongming reviewed a report concluding that mines had killed the first four scouts and heavy howitzers had destroyed the agents near the Star Gate.
• Kongming advised sending more Cipher Pol agents with Haki and flight abilities, while keeping Vice Admiral-level fighters out of the reconnaissance mission.
• The next day, Plan led twenty agents through the Star Gate, and the team split up to locate the enemy’s artillery positions.
• Explosions from precisely placed mines quickly destroyed eighteen agents’ feeds as Plan and Belloc flew overhead and revealed a peninsula surrounded by the sea.
• Plan and Belloc’s footage showed hundreds of ironclad battleships, extensive trenches and bunkers, armored trains, tens of thousands of howitzers, and barracks stretching across the landscape.
• Two projectiles struck Plan and Belloc, and their screens went dark after showing white mist and capturing their screams.

Imu and the Five Elders assessed the heavily armed world beyond the Star Gate and debated how to break the military stalemate. Imu revealed that the gate could be expanded, but the Elders still faced the risk of exposing their forces to an enemy whose full capabilities remained unknown.

• Imu watched the enemy’s World War II-level forces and wondered whether they possessed nuclear weapons or other powers alongside their Future Sight.
• The Five Elders reviewed the costly footage and concluded that the enemy had millions of soldiers, vast artillery, and unusually powerful Future Sight.
• Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro identified the unknown enemy abilities, the danger of sending more fighters, and the Star Gate’s narrow size as the main problems.
• The Five Elders debated whether the enemy could attack through the gate, while Imu considered expanding it into a Medium Star Gate.
• Imu told the Five Elders the gate could be expanded to three hundred meters tall and two hundred meters wide, prompting them to weigh the increased access against the risk of enemy attack.
• Saint Shepherd Ju Peter argued that an Admiral would have to risk crossing the gate and enduring the bombardment to learn whether the enemy could kill Admiral-level fighters.

The Army tested the enemy civilization’s Future Sight by sending Brook’s soul and Gecko Moria’s shadow through the Star Gate after its artillery destroyed Cracker’s Biscuit Soldiers. The two began their mission to investigate the enemy’s abilities and gather intelligence.

• Charlotte Cracker sent three hundred Biscuit Soldiers through the Star Gate, but the enemy’s artillery destroyed them.
• Charlotte Daifuku noted that the enemy had waited until every Biscuit Soldier crossed before firing, suggesting its Future Sight could predict their numbers.
• Crocodile arrived with Brook and Gecko Moria and explained their tasks: test whether Future Sight detected souls, whether the enemy could affect souls or shadows, and gather intelligence.
• Brook separated his soul from his body, while Moria summoned his Doppelman.
• Brook’s ghost and Moria’s shadow entered the Star Gate to begin the experiment.

The World Government tried to identify the world beyond the Star Gate, but its forces blocked their reconnaissance and Brook could not understand the language there. Imu considered Hunter x Hunter as a possibility, then ruled it out after examining the characters Brook had copied.

• Moria sent Doppelman through the Star Gate, but the forces on the other side let it pass without firing.
• Doppelman returned with a Den Den Mushi, and two grenades destroyed the device before it could be brought through the gate.
• The Five Elders discussed why the other side was avoiding an attack, considering that they might fear being trapped if the Star Gate closed.
• Brook returned after five hours and reported seeing artillery, machine-gun bunkers, armored trains, and howitzers, but he could not understand the language or writing.
• Imu suspected the Hunter x Hunter World and ordered Brook to copy its writing, then rejected the possibility after reading the characters.

Army leaders and the Five Elders debated whether to send an elite force through Star Gate Number Three to test the enemy’s defenses. They agreed that the stalemate had to be challenged, but the question of who could risk losing a valuable Devil Fruit kept them from choosing a leader.

• Byrnndi World urged Marshal Raymond to stop hesitating and send fighters through the Star Gate, while Sakazuki warned that the enemy might have stronger attacks than Future Sight.
• Raymond said the main force could not pass through the two-meter-wide gate under the enemy’s artillery, but agreed to ask the Five Elders to authorize an elite squad.
• Saint Topman Warcury favored waiting for the enemy’s huge army to face supply problems, while Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro and Saint Shepherd Ju Peter argued that the World Government needed to establish a position beyond the gate.
• After Raymond’s request arrived, Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro proposed sending Byrnndi World with several Vice Admirals to test the enemy’s strength.
• Saint Marcus Mars pointed out that Byrnndi World’s More-More Fruit might reincarnate in the enemy world if he died, and the Five Elders reconsidered sending him.
• The Five Elders considered Sakazuki and Garp instead, but the risk to valuable Devil Fruits left them without a decision.

Imu ordered Byrnndi World to lead an assault through the third Star Gate, but an enemy nuclear strike destroyed the Biochemical Safety Station and killed him. The World Government found no radiation at the blast site, leaving Imu puzzled about the weapon’s effects.

• Imu decided that Byrnndi World would lead the force through the Star Gate, and the Five Elders relayed his order to Fleet Marshal Raymond.
• Byrnndi World led Jozu and fourteen other officers through the Star Gate toward the enemy positions.
• A nuclear explosion struck just after Byrnndi World emerged, destroying the Biochemical Safety Station and engulfing the surrounding area.
• Cipher Pol and protected researchers searched the ruins, found Jozu severely burned but alive, and detected no high-concentration radiation.
• Sakazuki saw Byrnndi World’s charred corpse beyond the Star Gate, while the other officers remained missing.
• Imu wondered why the nuclear blast had left no radiation.

After Byrnndi World's death, the World Government studied nuclear weapons and prepared a retaliatory strike against the Third Star Gate World. Garp hurled a shell packed with Dyna Stone through the gate, and the chapter ended before its effects were known.

• Marshal Raymond and Whitebeard called for retaliation, while Steel Bone Kong urged the commanders to learn how Byrnndi World had been killed.
• An Army Colonel delivered a report on nuclear weapons, and the commanders learned about their destructive power and radiation risks.
• After the Five Elders approved a counterattack, Army Headquarters built a shell packed with ten pieces of Dyna Stone.
• Garp threw the shell through the Star Gate as Brook prepared to observe the explosion from the other side.
• A purple flash appeared on the horizon, and the blast's shockwave swept back toward the observers.

After the World Government failed to breach the enemy’s defenses or capture a soldier, Imu considered publicizing the conflict. Meanwhile, the Otherworld Strategy Committee discovered that Star Gate Number Three had been sealed by a transparent crystal and a wax-like substance.

• Brook reported that a curved wall had shielded the enemy from Garp’s Dyna Stone attack, while Sengoku noted that Future Sight and the Star Gate’s narrow, fixed path made assaults difficult.
• Imu ordered the Five Elders to capture an Otherworlder and read his memories, but Gecko Moria’s Doppelman was repeatedly stopped by anti-tank rifle and machine-gun fire.
• Imu decided to have the Publicity Department make a video from recorded footage to inform Sea Star People about the Otherworld war.
• The Otherworld Strategy Committee received an urgent report that crystal and a white wax-like substance had sealed Star Gate Number Three.
• Sakazuki questioned the soldiers guarding the gate, learned that the transparent crystal had appeared at 2:34, and ordered them to accept their punishment.
• Dr. Anas examined the seal and found the crystal exceptionally hard and strong, comparing its properties to Vice Admiral Jozu’s ability.

After the Star Gate was sealed, the World Government debated what the move meant while Garp prepared to break through the barrier. Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s prophecy revealed that opening the gate would bring an invasion by armored giants, leaving Imu uncertain about the other world’s identity.

• Kongming argued that the other world had sealed the Star Gate because it feared the World Government, while Marlen Winfred and Burwell Gabriel offered other explanations.
• Cipher Pol delivered Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s prophecy to the Otherworld Strategy Committee, and Garp prepared to punch through the crystal barrier.
• An official stopped Garp after the committee ordered him to halt the attempt to break the crystal.
• The Authority Room learned that armored giants fifty to sixty meters tall would invade RL1558 Area and devastate the Army, including Kyojuro Rengoku and Gyomei Himejima.
• The Five Elders considered whether to prepare for total war or keep the Star Gate closed, while Imu wondered whether the giants were the Rumbling or armored machines.

Imu chose all-out war against the Attack on Titan world and ordered Star Gate No. 3 upgraded. The World Government mobilized its forces as the gate began to glow, leaving the invasion about to begin.

• Imu studied Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s drawing of the Armored Giants and weighed the risks of fighting an unknown civilization with Future Sight.
• The Publicity Department aired footage of the clashes and deaths at Star Gate No. 3, then began a worldwide broadcast with Morgans filming and Tesoro and Stella hosting.
• Imu decided to wage all-out war, and the World Government designated three areas as the combat zone and raised a wall around them.
• The military assembled a million soldiers, more than four thousand heavy howitzers, thousands of Giant warriors, and powerful forces across land and air.
• Imu chose to upgrade the Small Star Gate in RL1558 Area, and it burst into brilliant starlight.

Eren Yeager explained how he prepared Paradis and the wider world for an invasion from another world by uniting allies and gathering Titan powers. With a World Allied Force forming, he proposed eating the remaining three Titan inheritors to complete his Nine Titans Unification plan.

• Eren told Ymir that sealing the Star Gate would not stop the invasion and that he intended to bring the war to the other world.
• Eren recalled learning from Ymir and visions from his future self that an otherworldly army would invade in seven years, prompting him to gather all nine Titan powers and unite the world.
• Eren ate Bertholdt Hoover before Armin could inherit the Colossal Titan, then shared the future visions with trusted companions.
• In 852, Eren and his allies rebelled against Paradis's central government and crowned Historia Lenz, whose real name was Historia Reiss, queen of the New Eldian Empire.
• Eren later convinced Willy Tybur of the coming invasion, and Willy helped secure recognition for the New Eldian Empire and form the World Allied Forces.
• Eren proposed his Nine Titans Unification plan, which required him to eat Pieck, Zeke Yeager, and Lara Tybur.

Eren learned from Ymir that the World Government would enslave the world after defeating the Allied Forces, and he prepared to fight despite believing defeat was inevitable. After Eren left, Ymir revealed that she had lied, then the Star Gate opened before the Sea Star People and showed them an army of towering armored giants.

• Eren asked Ymir about the world's fate after his death, and she said the World Government would massacre the Allied Forces and enslave people around the world.
• Ymir told Eren that Mikasa killed herself beneath the tree after his death, and Eren accepted that she would escape enslavement.
• Eren said goodbye to Ymir and returned to fight for freedom, while Ymir admitted she had lied about the future and vowed revenge for her lost freedom.
• On Punk Hazard Island, Buggy excitedly watched the Star Gate grow on a virtual screen, and Ikoma scolded him for asking whether it had grown.
• Buggy and Ikoma saw rows of enormous armored giants beyond the Star Gate, leaving the watching Sea Star People stunned.

The Rumbling began pouring through the Star Gate as the Eldian alliance expected its forty million Wall Titans to overwhelm Sea Star. On the Red Line, Whitebeard stepped forward and unleashed an Airquake as the two worlds’ forces prepared to clash.

• The first armored Colossal Titans crossed the Star Gate, beginning the Rumbling’s invasion of the Red Line.
• Imu recognized the Titans as Paradis Island’s Wall Titans, while the Five Elders and the Otherworld Strategy Committee watched with grim expressions.
• Eren explained that he had used Future Sight to time the Star Gate’s expansion and planned to use the Rumbling as a spear while their armies defended it.
• Kaido celebrated the start of the world war, while King, Bullet, and Sir Crocodile prepared to fight.
• Whitebeard advanced to seek justice for his injured son and tore at the air with an Airquake.
