• Lyliana told Sakazuki that she had not fought seriously in the earlier matches and that only three people outside her family had seen her at full strength.

As the final day's battle began, Kuzan and Borsalino dodged questions about their earlier staged matches while Sakazuki fought Lyliana in earnest. Lyliana's Dragon Flame vaporized Sakazuki's magma and left him defeated, while the island was damaged and reinforced by the clash.
