• Chinjao apologized for his subordinates’ anger, admired his restored reflection, and praised Oran’s medical expertise.

Chinjao tested his restored strength by destroying pirates attacking Firefly Island, while Oran examined the island’s rivers and sought hydroelectric expertise in another dream world. He returned with a complete theoretical power-station design and planned to travel to West Blue with Chinjao.

Oran and his companions traveled with Chinjao to Glacier Continent, where Chinjao opened his treasure vault and paid Oran for his medical work. After parting ways, Oran followed an ancient map to the ruins of Ice Country, where he uncovered the frozen figure of Country Carrier Oz.

• Ginny told Brand that Oran had left to handle his own business and that the Crown Princess could act as regent in his absence.

• The group heard grave diggers telling Absalom to leave because he had no right to dig graves in their contracted cemetery.

Lyliana stopped a cemetery bully from abusing Absalom, who revealed that he had gained invisibility through the Transparent Fruit and asked Oran to make him strong. Oran brought Absalom aboard and decided to have Brand give him basic training after their arrival at Ohara.

• Oran identified Absalom’s power as the Transparent Fruit and agreed to let him follow the group in exchange for his service.
• Oran took Absalom aboard and told Kate that they would observe him before trusting him with important matters.
• Oran decided Absalom would receive basic training from Brand rather than train alongside Lyliana.
• The group reached Ohara after several days at sea, and Absalom was impressed by the ship’s first-class accommodations.

Oran visited Ohara to search the Tree of Knowledge’s library and met Vegapunk, who agreed to give him a replicated Azure Dragon Devil Fruit for Lyliana. After leaving Alabasta, Oran changed course for Little Garden to find Lyliana a new teacher.

Oran brought Lyliana and Absalom to Little Garden to meet the giants Brogy and Dorry, hoping they would teach Lyliana Elbaf’s combat techniques. After watching the captains’ duel, Oran awakened his Book-Book Fruit and turned the island into the contents of a book as he prepared to make his move.

• Oran reached Little Garden with Lyliana, Absalom, and Kate, and explained that the island still held dinosaurs and other ancient inhabitants.
• Oran used a fragrant seasoning to draw out Brogy, then offered him alcohol in exchange for a feast and introduced him to Lyliana as a potential teacher.

• Oran explained that Brogy and Dorry had fought for seventy years after a dispute over whose prey was bigger, and that he wanted them to teach Lyliana Elbaf’s techniques.
• After Brogy and Dorry ended their 51,426th duel in a draw, Oran awakened the Book-Book Fruit and made all of Little Garden’s environment into content within a book.

Oran used his awakened Book-Book Fruit to make Dorry and Brogy experience a duel ending in one giant’s death, forcing them to confront whether their warrior’s honor was worth losing each other. They ended their long-running fight and agreed to teach Oran’s daughter the Elbaf Spear.

• Oran told Lyliana to act as though nothing had happened and created an illusion to hasten Dorry and Brogy’s duel.
• Brogy shared food with Oran’s group and explained that he and Dorry had fought for seventy years over a forgotten dispute, guided by Elbaf warriors’ ideals of honor.

• Dorry and Brogy sailed toward Elbaf as Lyliana promised to challenge them after growing stronger, and Oran's group set out on their return journey.

Oran returned to Piltover, where Brand reported the kingdom’s progress and Oran assigned Absalom to his training. Because Absalom remained physically weak, he chose Oran’s painful direwolf-gene enhancement, beginning his transformation into an invisible werewolf.

• Brand briefed Oran on the trained security force, approaching dry season, and Piltover’s continued development.
• Oran introduced Absalom to Brand for physical training, but Absalom struggled to keep pace with the security force.

• Oran offered Absalom a direwolf-gene enhancement to address his poor physical strength, explaining its risks and painful process.
• Absalom accepted the alchemical treatment, which Oran said would strengthen him without making him lose his reason.

• Shanks and Buggy proposed making Roger catch an illness that weakened his immunity, but Oran warned that the toxins would only compound the damage.
• Oran proposed transferring Roger’s thoughts and consciousness into a new bionic body so he could survive, but Roger laughed and refused the treatment.

Oran then traded information for a display of Roger’s fighting technique and revealed that Garp was coming to Firefly Island, leaving Roger preparing to depart.

• Roger rejected the treatment, explaining that he wanted to finish his life’s voyage in the body that had carried him this far.
• Oran offered Roger suppressive medicine and invited Croccus to work for him, but Croccus declined because he still needed to care for Laboon and search for the Rumbar Pirates.
