Chapter Summaries

Wu Biao amused Sengoku and Tsuru with his irreverent nicknames and behavior while Garp tried to keep him in line. After Sengoku asked about his missing sheep, Garp realized Wu Biao had bundled it inside his cape, and Wu Biao fled with it to make hotpot lamb as the Marines gave chase.

• Wu Biao dodged Garp's punch, mocked him, and called Tsuru "Old Grandma Tsuru" after she invited him to call her Grandma Tsuru.
• Tsuru gave Wu Biao senbei, while Garp blamed Aokiji for eating Sengoku's missing crackers and stopped Wu Biao from sitting on the sofa.

Wu Biao fled Garp and Sengoku through Marine Headquarters after stealing Sengoku’s sheep, unaware that it contained classified intelligence and reports. He ducked into a room to roast the sheep and encountered a powerful, tattooed middle-aged man.

• Wu Biao hid the sheep in his cape and tried to evade Garp and Sengoku, smashing through walls as they pursued him.

• The middle-aged man paused and asked Wu Biao who he was.

Wu Biao barged into Akainu's room while fleeing Garp and Sengoku, intending to roast the Navy's sheep. He bit through its horn before Sengoku and Garp separated them, and Garp dragged him away as Sengoku was left with the injured sheep.

• Wu Biao asked Akainu for a light and prepared to roast the sheep he had stolen, but Akainu warned him not to eat it.

• Garp showed Wu Biao Monkey D. Luffy’s 100-million-Beli wanted poster and proudly described Luffy’s defeat of a Seven Warlord.

• Garp wondered whether Wu Biao had caused trouble again, then went to see Sengoku and told Koby and Helmeppo to train with the little baldy.

Wu Biao joined T-Bone and the recruit camp trainees for a mission to exterminate the Sword Tiger Pirates, whose captain Orlande had massacred the residents of three islands. As the Marines discussed possible routes and recruits formed groups, Bertrand revealed a fierce personal hatred of Orlande, while Odo confronted Bertrand over stolen underwear.

• T-Bone briefed the trainees on Orlande’s atrocities and vowed to kill him if their extermination mission failed.

As the Marines sailed toward the Grand Line’s route junction, Koby questioned the training camp’s decision to pursue the Sword Tiger Pirates to Bora Island. He argued that the pirates’ damaged ship and the newest Log Pose’s charging time made that route unlikely, leaving the group’s chosen course in doubt.

• Wu Biao demonstrated the Crushing Punch for Koby and offered his usual instinctive, unreliable advice.
• Helmeppo introduced Bertrand, who said the training camp had chosen Bora Island as the route to pursue the Sword Tiger Pirates.
• Koby argued that the pirates’ damaged ship could not safely cross the Raging Waves Sea on the way to Bora Island.
• Koby explained that the pirates could not have repaired their ship at Honda Island because it lacked professional repair facilities and they stayed outside the harbor.
• Koby consulted a book showing that the newest Log Pose needed six days to charge at Honda Island before pointing toward Bora Island.

Koby deduced that the Sword Tiger Pirates were heading to Harry Island, and the Marine trainees changed course to follow them.

• Koby and Helmeppo woke Wu Biao, who said he would leave the Sword Tiger Pirates’ captain to the recruits because he considered him trash.

Wu Biao led the Marines onto Harry Island, where he robbed and beat the dockside thugs while insisting he was not a Marine. Elsewhere, pirates planned to kill the Marine unit and use its defeat to establish their alliance’s reputation.

• Wu Biao arrived at Harry Island with Colonel T-Bone, Koby, Helmeppo, and the Marine recruits, then complained that he had no money for a meal.
• When dockside thugs mocked the Marines and claimed to be honest citizens, Wu Biao broke their leader’s hand and declared himself a robber.

• A liaison officer told Sengoku that the Five Elders had shown little concern about Shanks contacting Whitebeard but wanted Crocodile’s Seven Warlords vacancy filled quickly.
• Brannew reported that Marine Headquarters still could not contact the recruit camp, and Sengoku worried they had already landed on the island without support.
• Wu Biao ate at a tavern while other patrons whispered that the Marines were bullies, and Basile reported that nobody had seen pirate ships at the docks.
• Wu Biao offered the tavern owner the money on the table for information, and the owner said strangers had bought large amounts of food before disappearing into the woods behind town.
• T-Bone realized the pirates had likely avoided the official port, while Wu Biao explained that Koby’s warning and his instinct to eat after landing had led him to suspect pirates were nearby.

The recruit camp searched for the missing Bertrand and found him aiding the Sword Tiger Pirates. Brice tried to rescue him, but as Koby prepared to join the fight, Wu Biao stopped him.

• Brice showed Basile Bertrand’s pendant and said he had disappeared near the forest, prompting Basile to organize a search.
• Wu Biao sensed hundreds of people in the forest and headed toward them, followed by Colonel T-Bone.
• The Marines found Bertrand bound among the Sword Tiger Pirates, where he offered to help their captain, Orlande, escape the recruit camp.
• Orlande revealed that he had used Bertrand for information and aimed a gun at him, so Brice attacked and fired a signal flare.
• Koby resolved to help Brice despite his fear, but Wu Biao pressed him back down before he could rise.

Seven years after a pirate raid destroyed their village and left Brice maimed, Brice confronted Orlande, the pirate they had once rescued. Orlande shot Brice and offered him a place on his ship, but Brice attacked him and refused to join.

• As children, Bertrand and Brice rescued Orlande after finding him drifting at sea, and Orlande recovered before leaving the village.
• After Bertrand's parents returned, a pirate crew led by Orlande raided the village during a storm; Brice hid Bertrand, and Marines later found Brice alive but badly wounded and missing his left eye.

• Brice charged Orlande, who shot him in the thigh and arm before offering him the position of first mate on his ship.
• Brice refused the offer and bit Orlande's ankle; Orlande kicked him away and continued attacking him.

Wu Biao stopped the recruit camp from intervening while Brice was being beaten, arguing that Brice was a sinner for saving someone who caused many deaths. Bertrand admitted that Brice had changed, but Wu Biao rejected Bertrand’s attempt to explain his motives and ended the conversation with a blunt claim about how he dealt with people who grew apart.

• Bertrand apologized for his part in what happened and asked Brice to knock sense into him if he ever changed; Brice agreed.

Bertrand and Brice were nearly overwhelmed by the Sword Tiger Pirates until Basile and the New Recruit Camp opened fire under Wu Biao’s mistaken warning about hundreds of hidden enemies. Their shooting exposed the Marines’ position, and a large pirate force charged them, leaving Basile unable to explain how Wu Biao’s words had caused the disaster.

• Bertrand carried the badly wounded Brice while the two fought off Orlande’s pirates, and Brice urged Bertrand to escape without him.
• Wu Biao told the trainees that hundreds of people were hiding across the forest, and Basile used the claim to rally them into firing at the pirates surrounding Bertrand and Brice.
• The New Recruit Camp’s gunfire wiped out most of Orlande’s men but alerted the hundreds of pirates in hiding, who charged toward the Marines.
• A Marine rescued Bertrand and Brice and ordered the trainees to retreat while fighting, as Bertrand cursed the Marines for provoking the larger pirate force.
