The next day, the sky was clear and cloudless!
Gottat Island!
After making their preparations, Sakazuki and his group were ready to leave today.
He had originally planned to kill the Sun King, but Marineford had sent word for him to escort the prisoner to Impel Down, so he was preparing to head back.
The Marines had restocked their supplies and were boarding the warship in an orderly fashion.

The entire warship suddenly lurched violently. Coffee spilled across the floor, and Sakazuki's expression
