Houka and Rocks planned to drive the World Government and Marines out of the New World rather than fight an all-out war, and they set out for Elbaf’s treasury so Loki could claim its inherited power. The chapter ended as Loki approached Tirei Ragnir, the hammer inhabited by the Ice Squirrel Ratatoskr, while Vegapunk prepared to study it.

• Houka argued that the Rocks Pirates should use their flying fleet and mobile tactics to wear down the World Government, and Rocks approved the plan to expel the Marines from the New World.

• Harald and Jarul led Loki and the Rocks Pirates into Elbaf’s treasury, where Harald explained Tirei Ragnir’s power and Loki stepped forward to challenge it as Vegapunk prepared to take notes.

Loki fought Tirei Ragnir over the Nidhogg Devil Fruit, lost the warhammer Houka had given him, and then accepted Ragnir as his new weapon before eating the fruit.

• Rocks called for the war to begin, Golden Lion Shiki declared that their forces could defeat the World Government and Navy, and Vegapunk celebrated the wealth of research materials available to him.

Loki’s early acquisition of the Nidhogg Black Dragon power triggered several Devil Fruits to awaken and seek new hosts, while Houka’s desire altered the Azure Dragon fruit. Meanwhile, the World Government fleet advanced toward the New World Alliance, with Tsuru trying to protect the Marines and Imu planning to use them to exhaust Pluton’s energy.

• Vice Admiral Tsuru advised Fleet Admiral Kukulkan to spread the World Government fleet farther apart and secretly leaked warship positions to Houka, hoping Pluton would target Cipher Pol and the Celestial Dragons.
• Kukulkan rejected Tsuru’s advice because Imu and the Four Elders intended to use Marine casualties to bait Pluton into firing and deplete its remaining energy.

The World Government changed its plan after learning the Rocks Pirates and Pluton were absent from Elysium Island, deciding to provoke them and capture Kozuki Houka’s family. Vice Admiral Tsuru secretly informed Houka that Garp and Sengoku were being sent to Egghead Island, and Houka agreed to help her capture them.

• The Four Elders ordered the Navy to surround Elysium Island and send Garp and Sengoku ashore to kill pirates and provoke the Rocks Pirates.
• Vice Admiral Tsuru proposed sending Garp and Sengoku to capture Shimotsuki Furiko, Stussy, and their children on Egghead Island, hoping to draw Houka away and split the Rocks Pirates.

Rocks and his allies celebrated the apparent blow against the World Government, but the Four Elders and Holy Knights returned to the battlefield through teleportation circles.

• Imu saw that Kozuki Houka had found Pluton and the Nidhogg Fruit, then the Four Elders and Holy Knights teleported away and abandoned their escort fleets.
• Pluton and Loki’s Nidhogg form attacked, engulfing the warships and leaving a vast abyss in the sea.
• Shiki celebrated the apparent deaths of the Four Elders and Holy Knights, while Xiong and the others discussed Pluton’s destructive power and the danger of Ancient Weapons.
• Rocks said he would save Pluton’s remaining shots for Imu and Mary Geoise rather than waste them on the Marines.

• Garp and Sengoku told Imu they could already see Egghead Island as they ate rice crackers, while Tsuru watched them with a faint smile.

Kozuki Houka and Vice Admiral Tsuru ambushed Garp and Sengoku with Seastone powder and drew them into the Lost World, severing their contracts with Imu. Enraged and unsettled by the loss of the two Marines, Imu possessed Kong on the battlefield, where Rocks recognized the change and called for Harald.

• Rocks attacked Imu with an Advanced Conqueror’s Haki slash, but Imu recovered instantly and pursued him with black tentacles.
• Harald broke away from Fengxi and rushed to aid Rocks, while the other fighters struggled against enemies that rapidly regenerated or possessed immortal bodies.

• Eisen D. Oars JS and the giant warriors prepared to defend Pluton as Kalleras hesitated to fire its main cannon toward the battle.

The giants aboard Pluton repelled Gunko, but Imu turned to the other battlefields and used Black Turn Domination to transform Dorry and Brogy into demons. Rocks and Harald tried to resist Imu’s provocation without exposing themselves to transformation, as the fighting spread to their allies.

• Jarul rallied the giants aboard Pluton, whose combined attack shattered Gunko’s withering wind and blasted her giant eagle form apart.

• Rocks ordered the pirates to retreat to Pluton and told Shiki to gather the flying fleet as Nidhogg tore off much of Kukulkan’s wing and blasted him away.

• Silver Axe Xiong called for Oscar to teleport him away, and the fighters on the Rocks Fury prepared to flee or defend themselves as Ganzi realized he had no means of escape.

Ganzi and Malone were captured by Imu, while Eisen D. Oars JS sacrificed himself to let Kalleras blast Feathered Serpent and Vedfolnir with Pluton’s main cannon. The monsters began regenerating, leaving Loki furious and the battle unresolved.

The arrival of a massive Marine fleet threatened to break the alliance’s resolve, but Loki rejected Imu’s offer to betray his allies, leaving everyone to face the approaching reinforcements while still hoping Kozuki Houka would arrive.

• Rocks, Harald, and Loki battled Imu while Kukulkan pursued Loki and Kalleras fought Kukulkan; across the other battlefields, the pirates and Giants continued fighting the World Government’s monsters.

• The Giants and pirates grew increasingly anxious as the fleet drew near; Golden Lion Shiki considered fleeing, Silver Axe Xiong prepared to teleport away, and Fugetsu Kizaburo continued fighting Malone.

Kozuki Houka arrived at the glacier battlefield just as the Marines were about to overwhelm the pirates and giants. He brought Whitebeard Newgate and other allies from the Lost World, turning the tide and leaving Copper Skin Admiral and Iron Hand Admiral facing him.
