• An Elbaf Roc Bird seized the Red Force and flew it away from Bohr’s warship, while Crocus watched the escape and News Coo recorded the battle.
• Half a day later, the battered Red-Haired Pirates docked on Little Garden Island, where Shanks called for a feast despite their losses and Benn Beckman remained troubled.
• Two giants arrived dragging a dinosaur, recognized the Roc Bird, and heard Shanks invite them to join the feast.

After Bohr wounded Shanks, the Gorosei ordered the Marines to leave Shanks alone because he secretly retained Celestial Dragon status. Elsewhere, Garp met Dragon in East Blue and learned he intended to bring change to the world, but Dragon departed without seeing Luffy.

• Shanks and the Red-Haired Pirates shared a meal with Dorry and Brogy on Little Garden and discussed Bohr's unusual strength.
• Morgan's newspaper reported that Bohr had defeated the Red-Haired Pirates at Reverse Mountain and Shanks had lost an arm, pleasing Zephyr and troubling Kong and Sengoku.

• Garp met Dragon on a mountain in East Blue, and Dragon said someone had to bring change to the world before disappearing without visiting Luffy.

Wang Gao and the researchers uncovered how the Rainbow Mist Space formed and found Black Magnetic Crystals capable of storing immense energy and generating unusual magnetic and gravitational fields. The chapter ended with Wang Gao naming the newly identified material.

• Wang Gao's team traced the Rainbow Mist Space to a seabed fissure, where siphon vortices drew living creatures into a crashed spaceship reactor that released enormous energy.
• The released energy stimulated N-series Matter in the surrounding seabed and destabilized spacetime, creating the Rainbow Mist Space.
• Wang Gao's team salvaged the spaceship wreckage and collected mineral and geological samples for study.
• Dr. Nicola showed Wang Gao a black crystal extracted from the seabed minerals that absorbed 27,000 kilowatt-hours before releasing a powerful magnetic and gravitational force.
• Wang Gao and Dr. Nicola determined that repeated Quantum Lever Effects had created the crystals over time, and Wang Gao named them Black Magnetic Crystals.

Wang Gao and Dr. Nicola activated the Rainbow Mist Space and studied its unstable time flow and connection to different points in the Timeline. Their tests confirmed that events within the Timeline were fixed, leaving Wang Gao to continue toward an unknown future.

• Wang Gao, Dr. Nicola, and the soldiers charged the Black Magnetic Crystal vein beneath the seabed until the Rainbow Mist Space appeared.
• Wang Gao and Dr. Nicola sent monitoring equipment and three test soldiers into the space, confirming it contained visible matter, Dark Matter, and a force field that connected different times.
• The scouts entered and exited five times, encountering their past and future selves as the flow of time shifted unpredictably.
• Wang Gao and Dr. Nicola concluded that attempts to change the past would trigger the universe's repair mechanism and erase relevant memories, preserving the Timeline.
• Wang Gao accepted that knowledge of the future could not change established events and chose to keep moving toward the unknown.

Wang Gao and Vegapunk planned to use Black Magnetic Crystal to develop a time-accelerated testing field while Wang Gao continued researching the Underworld. His ghost soldier discovered an abandoned palace in the Underworld named Pluton Palace, whose architecture matched Alabasta’s royal palace.

• Wang Gao’s ghost soldiers discovered an ancient palace deep in the Underworld that resembled Alabasta’s royal palace.
• Wang Gao cautiously sent a ghost soldier inside, where it found a Moon Script inscription naming the building Pluton Palace and empty rooms with only wandering Soul Bodies.

Wang Gao uncovered the history of Pluton Palace and learned how Nigel secretly weakened the Enki God Kingdom, while discovering that the Vessel of Creation was likely the Ryugu Kingdom’s Pot of Life. The records left him with the origins of Joy Boy and Imu’s marriage alliance as the Enki God Kingdom declined and the Giant Kingdom rose.

• Wang Gao learned from the palace murals that Pluton Nigel had built Pluton Palace and survived for 734 years as a soul after his body died.
• Wang Gao discovered that the Supreme Scepter could disable Devil Fruit abilities, and that the Red Soil Incident had damaged Treasure Tree Lilith and the Vessel of Creation.
• Wang Gao connected Dumz’s damaged Vessel of Creation to the Pot of Life given by Sea King to Joy Boy, which could stimulate potential, alter genes, and modify bodies.
• Wang Gao learned that Nigel had secretly spread Demon Blood Potion through the Enki divine race’s water, causing mutations that prevented the God King from controlling Uranus and other national treasures.
• Wang Gao learned that the weakened Enki God Kingdom had sought an alliance with the rising Giant Kingdom through the marriage of Joy Boy and Imu.

The chapter recounts how Imu's grief and jealousy drove her to seize control of the Heavenly Sphere and turn against both the Enki Kingdom and God's Country. After Blue Sea Star's forces defeated God's Country, Imu led the Twenty Nation Allied Army to take its base in the Sabody Archipelago.

• After the Enki Kingdom fell, Imu learned its secrets from her father and altered her genes to pass the Heavenly Sphere's verification.
• Imu used the Heavenly Sphere to devastate the Enki Kingdom, then allied with the nineteen kingdoms descended from the fifth God-King to supply the Life Furnace with sacrifices.
• Imu attacked Rusukaina and Water 7, then convinced Joy Boy that God's Country was using Uranus to destroy Blue Sea Star's other powers.
• Imu gathered an allied army that joined forces with the Giant Kingdom and Joy Boy's coalition to defeat God's Country, though the war caused heavy casualties.
• While Joy Boy, the mermaid princess, and the Giant Kingdom's forces withdrew from God's Country's capital, Imu led the Twenty Nation Allied Army to capture God's Country's base in the Sabody Archipelago.

Wang Gao learned the history of the Great War, Joy Boy’s defeat, and the origins of Raftel and the D. lineage from the murals in Pluton Palace. He also discovered that Grand Line Era Year 1 began when Enki’s attempt to reactivate Uranus ended in disaster.

• Imu framed Joy Boy as a threat who had acquired Uranus, turning the Twenty Nation Allied Army against the Giant Kingdom and forcing Joy Boy into war.
• Imu used Uranus to manipulate the conflict, while a fake Pot of Life made the mermaid princess and the Merfolk Royal Family doubt Joy Boy.
• In Grand Line Era 712, Imu and the Twenty Nation Allied Army destroyed Atlantis Island; Joy Boy escaped to Raftel, where he died and left his final wishes to his companions.
• Joy Boy’s allies preserved his ideals, created the Poneglyphs, and adopted the D. as a mark opposing the gods; Wang Gao learned Raftel held a climate controller intended to help destroy the Red Line.
• Wang Gao traced Grand Line Era Year 1 to Enki’s failed attempt to reactivate Uranus, which damaged the Enki God Kingdom and sent the Heavenly Sphere’s magnetic attack toward the moon.

Wang Gao learned that the Gexi Civilization had unleashed a universe-devouring creature by breaching the Golden Can, and that its destruction had created the Moon People Civilization. He kept the creature’s existence secret and, four days later, Dr. Turing’s team decoded the complete Wall Breaker technology.

• Dr. Turing showed Wang Gao and Lucifer records describing how the Gexi Civilization opened the Golden Can and released a creature that devoured life across the universe.
• The Gexi Civilization’s final battle ended with its extinction and the creature’s exile beyond the universe, while a memetic attack and energy blast devastated the Moon People’s homeworld.
• Wang Gao ordered Dr. Turing to continue decoding the database and classified the creature’s existence as top secret.
• Wang Gao concluded that few civilizations in the present universe could surpass the Human Reform League, but worried that the creature might threaten them from beyond the universe.
• Four days later, Dr. Turing’s team decoded the complete Wall Breaker technical data from the Gexi Civilization’s archived ship records.

Wang Gao and Vegapunk completed the Human Reform League’s replica Wall Breaker on Potato Star and prepared it for its first experiment. By January 1505, the machine and its safeguards were ready, though the dangers beyond the Cosmic Crystal Wall remained unknown.

• Dracula reported that the Wall Breaker had been completed, and Wang Gao used a Space Gate to reach Potato Star.
• Wang Gao inspected the massive pyramid and its Dark Matter and N-series Matter ring, then asked whether Soul Fuel was ready; Dracula said Lewen had raised enough mice for one use.
• Wang Gao ordered Dracula to arrange defenses, special operations teams, exploration equipment, and precautions against repeating the Gexi Civilization’s final exile parameters.
• Dracula arranged forced shutdown and self-destruct systems and aimed weapons at the Wall-Breaking Ring so the machine could be stopped if necessary.
• By January 1505, all preparations for the Wall Breaker’s first experiment had been completed.

Wang Gao opened a Crystal Wall Tunnel to the Nameless Universe No. 002 and sent robotic scouts through, but discovered its rules resembled those of the dangerous Demon Universe. The scouts encountered a huge eyeball, and Wang Gao ordered them shut down.

• Wang Gao discovered that drawing zero-point energy weakened the surrounding space as the Wall Breaker activated.
• Dr. Nicola and Dr. Lorenz observed the Wall-Breaking Ring pierce the Cosmic Crystal Wall, and Wang Gao chose the Nameless Universe No. 002 as the Human Reform League's target.
• Wang Gao sent a robotic reconnaissance team through the Crystal Wall Tunnel, where the scouts found a sparsely populated savanna and adapted to the universe's rules unusually quickly.
• Dr. Lorenz reported that the Nameless Universe's rules closely resembled those of the Demon Universe, so Wang Gao ordered the Scout Robots to turn back.
• Two Scout Robots lost contact after a huge eyeball appeared in their footage, and Wang Gao ordered the remaining robots shut down.

After the Horse King's strike tore through the Crystal Wall Tunnel and devastated part of Crater Star, Wang Gao sealed the connection to the likely Gourmet Universe. He then turned to studying the few organisms recovered from the other universe before its rules were assimilated into This Universe.

• A shockwave from the other universe destroyed the Scout Robots, pierced the Wall Breaker's defenses, and carved a rift over four thousand kilometers long across Crater Star.
• Wang Gao identified the giant horse as likely the Horse King and ordered the dangerous universe sealed off, while the team preserved rule data and samples brought back by one Scout Robot.
• The Horse King's attack killed more than 734 people across three mining zones and one base, and the Underworld Bureau retrieved their souls for resurrection.
• Wang Gao continued discussions about the Wall Breaker as another clone began examining the recovered soil, weeds, and beetle with Indigo and the biologists.
• Wang Gao and Indigo carefully studied the organisms' cells and memes in the Biology Laboratory on Potato Star before the Gourmet Universe's rules could be assimilated.

Isaac Netero exposed Flevance’s rulers and the World Government for hiding the deadly effects of lead amber, then organized the kingdom’s residents to resist an impending crackdown.

• The Gorosei and neighboring kingdoms moved to suppress Flevance, as the Human Reform League prepared for a larger decisive battle.

Netero and the Hunter Corps treated Flevance’s residents while the World Government tried to suppress news of the crisis and sent an allied army to seize the country. Netero defeated the army and its CP0 agents, then evacuated everyone to the moon, leaving Flevance City empty as the larger conflict remained ahead.

• Trafalgar, his wife, and Law implanted Mecha Seeds in Flevance’s residents, and Law helped operate the Blood-Cleansing Chambers.
• The Hunter Association stripped Netero of his vice-chairman position as secret newspapers spread news of Flevance around the world.
• The World Government sent two CP0 agents, Raiu and Hennessy, to join the allied army, and Netero ordered the evacuation of Flevance’s residents and production camps.
