Chapter Summaries

Sun Keiyun’s attempt to fuse Pure Yin and Pure Yang True Essence filled him with Death Qi and brought on the Five Decays of Heavenly Beings. As he faced death, he experienced a long vision of a successful life on Earth and remembered that he had been pursuing longevity.

• Sun Keiyun collided his Pure Yin and Pure Yang True Essence in his middle Dantian, producing uncontrollable Death Qi that spread through his body.

• Sun Keiyun watched his wife die of old age and wondered whether humanity could achieve longevity.
• Sun Keiyun remembered that he had always been pursuing longevity.

Sun Keiyun resolved the conflict in his Yin-Yang True Essence and formed a Golden Core, which transformed his body and granted him powerful abilities over souls, space, elements, and creation and destruction. After reaching the Golden Core Stage and realizing he could survive as long as a trace of his power remained, he wondered what had happened to the Sage of Six Paths.

• Sun Keiyun committed himself to immortality, allowing his divine consciousness to unify the colliding Yin-Yang True Essence and form a Golden Core.

• Sun Keiyun learned to manipulate space and elements instinctively, and discovered that his Golden Core's True Gang could create or destroy matter and life.
• Sun Keiyun concluded that the Golden Core could preserve his life's information and let him revive from a remaining wisp of qi, then questioned what had happened to the Sage of Six Paths.

Sun Keiyun used his transformed Spiritual Sense to scan the continent and decided to change his plan to unify the world. He visited Ōnoki in Iwagakure, explained his vision for peace, and then transported the leaders of several villages to a snowy pagoda for a meeting.

• Sun Keiyun scanned the continent with his Spiritual Sense and realized he no longer needed the Primordial Spirit Jade Edict to monitor it.
• Sun Keiyun appeared in Ōnoki's office and identified himself as the President of the Great Harmony Society.
• Sun Keiyun praised Iwagakure's governance, then explained to Ōnoki how war had shaped his desire to bring peace to the world.
• Sun Keiyun decided to gather the village leaders so he would not have to repeat his explanation to each of them.
• Sun Keiyun transported Ōnoki, the Raikage, Yagura, and other village representatives to a snowy pagoda, leaving Ōnoki bewildered by his power.

Sun Keiyun introduced the Great Harmony Society’s history and invited the five leaders to join it, then challenged them to a fight to prove his strength. On a snowy mountain arena he prepared for battle, and after A’s attack failed, Ōnoki launched Dust Release.

• Ōnoki used Dust Release: World Boundary Stripping Technique against Sun Keiyun.

Sun Keiyun survived Ōnoki’s Dust Release, defeated Yagura and the Grass Village Leader, then resurrected the Grass Village Leader and explained the Great Harmony Society’s cultivation and membership rules. The leaders of Takigakure and Kusagakure agreed to join, leaving the Kage of three great villages to decide whether to fight or surrender.

• Ōnoki’s Dust Release failed to harm Sun Keiyun, who then used a sudden spatial move and a light-speed kick to send Yagura and the Grass Village Leader crashing into a mountainside.
• The Grass Village Leader died from the impact, but Sun Keiyun restored him with Life Force, and the man woke up alive.
• Sun Keiyun told the Kage he had created a cultivation system for the Great Harmony Society and described its investigation and probation requirements for new members.

• The Grass Village Leader also declared Kusagakure part of the Great Harmony Society because Konoha had submitted to it.
• Sun Keiyun asked the remaining Kage of the three great villages whether they would fight or surrender.

Sun Keiyun forced Ōnoki, A, and Yagura to consider surrendering to the Great Harmony Society, arguing that their villages could prosper through specialized industries after unification. As night fell, the three Kage weighed the changed balance of power and the Society’s ideals, and each reached a decision.

• Sun Keiyun urged Ōnoki, A, and Yagura to surrender, describing how Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Kirigakure could contribute through construction, electricity, and waterworks.
• Sun Keiyun sent the leaders of Kusagakure and Takigakure back to their villages and stayed nearby to watch over the three Kage.
• Yagura argued that Kirigakure needed the Great Harmony Society’s protection, while Ōnoki and A recognized that their villages risked defeat if Kirigakure joined it.
• A said he had studied the Society’s newspaper and theories, found no flaw in them, and felt inspired by the prospect of joining its shared ideal.
• Ōnoki and A admitted their reservations, and the three Kage silently watched the stars until each reached a decision.

Sun Keiyun persuaded Ōnoki, A, and Yagura to pledge their villages to the Great Harmony Society, offering the chance to learn sage cultivation while laying out mandatory reforms. The three Kage accepted, and Yagura learned that Mei Terumi belonged to the Society and would replace him as Kirigakure’s leader.

• Sun Keiyun explained that he had reached the Golden Core Stage, or sagehood, and the three Kage asked how he had cultivated to that level.
• Sun Keiyun made discussing their villages’ allegiance a condition for sharing his teachings, and Ōnoki, A, and Yagura agreed to join the Great Harmony Society.

• Ōnoki accepted the reforms for Iwagakure, and A and Yagura followed by agreeing for their villages.
• Yagura admitted he might need help controlling Kirigakure, so Sun Keiyun said Mei Terumi would take power and revealed she belonged to the Great Harmony Society.

As the Great Harmony Society conquered much of the continent, Sun Keiyun realized his political and cultivation goals were nearly complete but that he had no clear path forward. After sensing a dangerous presence through a space rift into another world, he decided to send a reincarnated clone there instead of investigating personally.

• Iwagakure and Kumogakure withdrew their border troops, while Yagura consolidated power in Kirigakure and pulled it out of the war.
• The Uzuki Divine Army stalled amid internal struggles, and Shiyuan Shenming abandoned efforts to control it and indulged in gathering wives and concubines.
• Amegakure joined the Great Harmony Society, whose campaigns spread through the Lands of Earth, Lightning, and Water until it controlled a third of the continent.
• Sun Keiyun reflected that he had nearly unified and Sinicized Cloud Leaf Star and had already reached the Golden Core Stage, but could not see how to advance further.
• Sun Keiyun opened a space channel to another world, sensed a cold, powerful presence through a child's gaze, and quickly closed the channel.
• Sun Keiyun resolved to create a Primordial Spirit Jade Edict that could enter a soul and reincarnate as a clone, equipped with body-tempering, swordsmanship, chakra, and a leaf from the Ancient Star Tree.

Sun Keiyun awakened in the body of an eighteen-year-old prisoner in the One Piece World and considered how to remove the World Consciousness’s wariness so his powerful Main Body could enter. He discovered that he could not cultivate Chakra in this world and prepared to test the other abilities left to him.

• Sun Keiyun fused with the memories of a frail prisoner who had survived since birth in the Marine G-9 Fortress prison.
• Sun Keiyun realized he knew little about the current One Piece story and weighed ways to earn the World Consciousness’s acceptance, including winning people’s recognition, gathering law-bearing treasures, and altering the plot.
• Sun Keiyun decided to pursue all three approaches, but first needed to find out whether his Main Body’s cheat could help him.
• Sun Keiyun tried to refine Chakra through meditation, but found that this world’s rules did not allow him to sense Chakra or physical and spiritual energy.
• Sun Keiyun called out, “Stars, boot up!” to test his other cheats.

Sun Keiyun created a leaf-based system for his clone and planned to use it to recover his strength and escape prison. After identifying Marine Ron’s health problems, he warned him that his unbalanced training could kill him, leaving Ron shaken and silent.

• Sun Keiyun built a system from Ancient Starry Sky Tree leaves and selected body-focused techniques and practical skills for his clone’s early training.
• Sun Keiyun realized his malnourished body needed substantial food before he could safely begin training, but the prison offered little to eat.
• Marine Ron patrolled the prison and beat pirates who shouted for freedom.
• Sun Keiyun told Ron that his training had damaged his health and described the symptoms he was experiencing.
• Ron doubted Sun Keiyun’s warning but left quietly after hearing that he might die before getting revenge, while Sun Keiyun meditated to absorb Star Power.

Ron doubted Sun Keiyun’s advice but found his training performance worsening and suffered chest pain. Meanwhile, Sun Keiyun quietly worked to strengthen his body in prison, and a pirate began hoping to join his escape plans.

• After dinner, Ron secretly resumed his weighted training, struggled to match his previous performance, and stopped when sharp chest pain struck.
• The next day, Ron left Sun Keiyun’s serving of food untouched, then hesitated to ask the boy for advice before leaving.
• Sun Keiyun ate the poorly prepared rice carefully and tried to refine its nourishment through the methods he had practiced in his previous life.
• A pirate questioned Sun Keiyun about his strange behavior and threatened to expose him, but Sun Keiyun remained silent.
• The pirate gave up threatening him and decided to watch Sun Keiyun, hoping to join him if he attempted to escape.

Sun Keiyun developed the Golden Gate Lock Jade Art to preserve his strength in prison, while Ron’s body weakened from training beyond his level. Ron asked Sun Keiyun for help, adopted a dream of eradicating pirates, and became his disciple, leaving Sun Keiyun ready to teach him.

• Sun Keiyun used meditation and self-hypnosis to create the Golden Gate Lock Jade Art, which reduced his body’s energy use and helped him regain strength.

• Sun Keiyun agreed to teach Ron proper training methods.

Sun Keiyun learned about the North Blue and diagnosed Ron’s stalled progress as the limit of his body’s potential, then offered him a way to surpass it. He began teaching Ron the Golden Gate Lock Jade Art inside a secluded prison cell.

• Ron moved Sun Keiyun into a sealed cell reserved for high-bounty pirates and explained that he could not yet secure Sun Keiyun’s release.
• Sun Keiyun learned that it was 1519 and asked Ron about notable figures and pirate crews in the North Blue.
• Ron told Sun Keiyun that Akainu, Kizaru, and Tsuru came from the North Blue, while the Vinsmoke Family dominated the region and the Scarecrow Pirates and Red Flag Pirates had grown in prominence.
• Sun Keiyun told Ron that improper training had pushed his cells beyond their limits and that his body’s potential had been reached.
• Ron asked whether he could still take revenge, and Sun Keiyun explained that he could break through his limits by strengthening his body with his heart.
• Sun Keiyun began teaching Ron the Golden Gate Lock Jade Art to nurture his body and build a solid physical foundation.

Sun Keiyun taught Ron the Golden Gate Lock Jade Art to restore the energy his training consumed, and Ron’s strength and Sun Keiyun’s body grew rapidly. After explaining how far Ron still was from the Marines’ strongest fighters, Sun Keiyun began teaching him the next cultivation stage, Manifesting Strength.

• Sun Keiyun taught Ron a mnemonic chant for cultivating the Golden Gate Lock Jade Art and warned him that it would increase his appetite.
• Ron spent his savings on food, and after three days his training performance began to recover as he followed Sun Keiyun’s method.
• Sun Keiyun grew from 1.2 meters tall to 1.9 meters as he received enough food, while Ron’s strength continued increasing over the following months.
• In the year 1520, Sun Keiyun told Ron that his strength had doubled, but explained that Marines Vice Admirals had Doriki values of at least 3,500.
• Sun Keiyun reminded Ron to remain humble, then announced that he would teach him the next stage of cultivation, Manifesting Strength.

Sun Keiyun developed an internal Haki cultivation method and trained Ron, who eventually sought a transfer to a Marine combat unit. After Ron left, the prison was neglected, so Sun Keiyun escaped through a hidden underwater passage.

• Sun Keiyun created the Keiyun Thirty-Six Hands and Keiyun Six Yang Fist, teaching both methods to Ron.
• After two years of training, Ron asked Shilai to transfer him to a combat unit, and Shilai approved the request.
• Shilai reviewed the prison records but decided not to investigate further, leaving the prison without a replacement guard.
• Sun Keiyun realized that the neglected prison had stopped supplying food and decided he had to leave.
• Sun Keiyun uncovered a hidden passage beneath his stone bed, swam through it, and emerged outside the prison.

Sun Keiyun escaped Fort G9 and was pursued by Marines, then convinced Colonel Shilai to let him serve as a staff officer while he considered joining the Marines. He accepted Shilai’s invitation to stay at the fortress, where a welcoming banquet was arranged.

Sun Keiyun used a fabricated scholarly background and a story of tragedy to secure a place as Shilai’s adviser, then impressed him by warning against drinking on duty. Shilai saw promise in Sun Keiyun and resolved to train him, while Sun Keiyun remained cautious about fully committing to the Marines.

• Sun Keiyun recounted his invented history as a gifted scholar from Rebel City whose parents were killed by the Three Treasures Navy, and Shilai listened while probing his background.

• Shilai concluded that Sun Keiyun was talented, honest, and trainable, and decided to nurture him as a powerful assistant.

Sun Keiyun explained to Shilai how Germa 66’s pirate patrols had weakened the North Blue Marines’ public standing and proposed reforms to restore their authority. Shilai decided to submit Sun Keiyun’s plan to Marine leadership.

• Sun Keiyun and Shilai discussed how Germa 66’s work had reduced Fort G9’s importance and left its Marines with little to do.
• Sun Keiyun warned that people might stop trusting the Marines, creating a cycle of declining recruitment and rising piracy.

• Sun Keiyun urged the Marines to answer every distress call and enforce rewards and punishments for deployment failures.
• Shilai agreed to pursue the reforms and asked Sun Keiyun to write a North Blue Marines Reform Report.

Sun Keiyun’s report proposed reforms to strengthen the Marines in North Blue, impressing Tsuru with its analysis and emergency-response plan. Tsuru decided to convene a meeting, bring Gion along to oversee the proposal, and assess whether Sun Keiyun could become her successor in the Staff Department.

• Sun Keiyun finished his report on the trip back to the fortress, and Shilai read it with growing excitement.
• Shilai submitted the report through the Pokket Family, which forwarded it to Tsuru in Marine Headquarters’ Staff Department.
• Tsuru read Sun Keiyun’s analysis of North Blue’s hidden security problems and his plan for a unified 111 emergency hotline, a Sea Situation Affairs Hall, and a grid-based response system.
• Tsuru recognized Sun Keiyun as a promising talent and considered expanding his proposals beyond North Blue.
• Tsuru called for a meeting about the reforms and asked her secretary to summon Gion so she could help assess Sun Keiyun.

Gion visited Fort G9 and saw how Sun Keiyun’s Maritime Information Center and Appeals Department had transformed the Marines’ morale and improved the Navy’s standing with the public. She left with a strong first impression of Sun Keiyun’s ability to establish order.
