Chapter Summaries

The Navy launched a Buster Call against Bullet on Lime Island while Oran’s combat body, Shiki, fought him and helped wear him down. After Garp defeated Bullet, the Five Elders discussed how to bring Oran’s Origin Project under World Government control and considered the newly proposed Shichibukai system.

• Sengoku ordered Oran and his people to leave Lime Island before the Buster Call, and Borsalino relayed the warning while questioning Oran about Shiki.

• The Five Elders discussed gaining authority over Oran’s technology, and Saturn presented the proposed Shichibukai system as they considered what to offer him.

The Five Elders approved a plan to recruit Oran’s power through the Shichibukai system, while Oran’s robot helped defeat Bullet and attracted the World Government’s interest. In Mary Geoise, Oran negotiated funding for a mass-produced robot project modeled on Garp, leaving the details of Garp’s cooperation and Oran’s status to be settled.

• Saturn proposed making Oran a Shichibukai, and the other Five Elders accepted the plan.

• Saturn approved the project funding and promised Marine cooperation with Garp, then raised the matter of Oran’s identity.

Saturn offered Oran an immediate Shichibukai position, research funding, and membership for his nation after four years, and Oran accepted. After leaving Mary Geoise, Oran headed to Marine Headquarters while Bullet arrived at Impel Down, where he traded insults with Golden Lion.

• Magellan escorted Bullet into Impel Down’s sixth level, where Golden Lion mocked him and Bullet fired back.

Oran explained his decision to become a Shichibukai to Zephyr, while discussing the World Government’s plans to develop combat units based on the Origin Project. Garp arrived to bring Oran to a meeting with Kong, and Zephyr began applying to use a test unit at the Marine training camp.

• In Impel Down, Bullet told Golden Lion that Oran had used him as a template for a robot with much of his strength and Devil Fruit ability, and Golden Lion admired Oran’s ambition.
• Oran told Zephyr that becoming a Shichibukai would help him gain World Government funding and influence, and Zephyr suggested he could instead join the Marines.
• Oran explained that the combat unit’s prototype would resemble Garp rather than Shiki, and Garp burst into Zephyr’s home, bringing engineering soldiers to repair the door.
• Garp asked how long it would take to deploy the units, and Oran said the first stage would take five years while large-scale deployment could take twenty.
• Garp took Oran to meet Kong to discuss the combat units’ abilities, while Zephyr began writing an application to place a test unit at the Marine training camp.

Oran agreed to the Marines’ Pacifista research plans, including experiments with Kuzan’s Ice-Ice Fruit, while the news of his Shichibukai appointment spread across the seas. Doflamingo saw Oran as someone who had already claimed the position and influence he wanted, and considered avoiding him or cooperating instead.

• Zephyr asked Oran to improve the training targets and let Yeklik pilot the giant mech, but Oran said Yeklik was too short for it.

Oran used Garp and Kuzan to advance his bio-alloy research while managing Piltover’s security and undercover agents. As Alifa waited for orders from CP, Oran reunited with Vi.

• Oran welcomed Kuzan and Garp to Firefly Island, where Garp helped Oran collect data for a new combat body made with self-repairing bio-alloy.
• Garp left after the first round of tests, while Kuzan stayed to help test Oran’s weapon and drove pirates away from the island.

• Kuzan sailed away from Piltover, and local security officers discussed the need for the country to rely on its own strength.
• Gecko Moria and the Moonlight Pirates reached Piltover’s lighthouse, and Moria ordered his crew to apply for entry rather than start a fight.

• Moria’s crew realized they had spent nearly all their treasure on a sword, supplies, taxes, and a planned banquet, but Moria refused to cancel the feast.
• Moria’s crew encountered a powerful cat and asked whether all cats on the Grand Line were that strong.

Two cats in Blitz-type mechs stopped pirates from robbing a shop on Firefly Island, while Moria watched and became more eager to grow stronger. Bear sent the captured pirates flying to Marine G6 Branch, where recruits learned that pirates sometimes fell from the sky.

• Pirates tried to loot a prosthetic body shop on Firefly Island after refusing to pay, but the owner remained confident because the island was backed by Siderial.
• Two cats from the Cat Special Agent Team used Blitz-type mechs to defeat the pirates, and Moria watched the fight with excitement and resolved to become stronger.

Oran arrived at Merfolk Island with Ginny and Franky aboard Laboon and met Shak, who showed him underwater mineral prospects. At Ryugu Palace, Oran offered the Ryugu Kingdom a labor agreement and promised protection and a chance to address its predicament at the next Reverie, leaving Neptune eager to know whether the offer was genuine.

• Laboon carried Oran, Ginny, and Franky through the deep sea toward Merfolk Island, where Shak guided the whale through the island's bubble barrier.

• Oran recognized that they had reached the Devil Triangle Sea Area and asked Ginny to search for the person they were seeking.

Oran and his companions found Brook aboard the wrecked Rumbar Pirates’ ship in the Devil Triangle Sea Area and reunited him with Laboon. Brook joined Oran’s group as they left the sea area, while the old ship sank behind them.

• Ginny sensed a current fluctuation, and Laboon followed it through the fog until the group found the Rumbar Pirates’ battered ship.
• Oran, Frankenstein, and Ginny boarded the ship, where Ginny mistook Brook for a ghost and struck him with lightning.
