Luffy, Usopp, and Nami sought repairs for the Going Merry at Water 7, while Kaku inspected the ship and Wu Biao unsettled Zoro by recognizing Geppo. Kaku became suspicious of Wu Biao, and Zoro was left wondering how he had never heard of Rokushiki; the chapter ended with an author’s note about taking time to plan the story.
