Teach and the Blackbeard Pirates defeated a giant carrying the Mythical Zoan Titan Giant Fruit on a ruined island. Teach created the fruit by killing the giant and began eating it, as its power started to awaken within him.

Natsu dismissed concerns about the Uchiha clan’s declining birth rate and prioritized educating its children. Meanwhile, King found the gravely wounded Kaido and brought him back to Wano, where doctors treated him and declared him temporarily out of danger.

• Setsuna told Natsu that the Uchiha birth rate had fallen by more than seventy percent since the clan gained ten-thousand-year lifespans, despite its population exceeding twenty thousand and seven thousand children being born.

• King carried Kaido to a warship, which raced back to Wano Country while ship doctors treated him through the night.
• The doctors finished treating Kaido and said he was temporarily out of danger.

King concealed Kaido’s condition after Madara Uchiha left him gravely injured, then went alone to stop Barossa from exploiting the Beasts Pirates’ weakness. King’s fiery assault engulfed Barossa’s fleet, though the battle’s outcome remained unknown.

• The ship’s doctor warned King that Kaido’s injuries might leave lasting effects on his state of mind, and King ordered Onigashima sealed and all information about Kaido classified.

Meanwhile, the Marines assessed the destruction of G2 Branch by the mysterious Second Golden Lion and set his bounty at 1.9 billion Beli, while Sengoku blocked a proposal to send an admiral after him.

• King displayed the defeated pirate captain’s head at Wano’s border, warning other crews not to invade the Beasts Pirates’ territory.

• Marine intelligence identified the unknown attacker of G2 Branch as the Second Golden Lion, whose fleet used the Float-Float Fruit to lift the fortress into the sky.
• Marine Headquarters set the Second Golden Lion’s bounty at 1.9 billion Beli, and Sengoku suppressed calls to send an admiral to eliminate him.

• Pirates across the New World reacted to Kaido's defeat, King’s efforts to stabilize the Beasts Pirates, and the Second Golden Lion’s destruction of G-2 Marine Branch.
• Natsu read Setsuna’s report about the Second Golden Lion and ordered the Intelligence Department to search the East Blue for clues about Shiki’s giant beast experiments and hidden traces.
• Natsu considered whether the Second Golden Lion had inherited Shiki’s legacy or was merely using his name, and chose to wait and observe.
• Tetsuka reported that a lone, unaffiliated blind swordsman had appeared along the coast of Spirit Awakening Island.

Natsu learned that the blind swordsman Issho had chosen to seek out the Uchiha Clan rather than join the Marines, and he arranged for Issho to come to Origin Island as an honored guest. After arriving, Issho sensed the island’s immense strength and recognized the foundation behind the Uchiha Clan’s order.

• Tekka reported that Issho had waited on Spirit Awakening Island before requesting a meeting with the Uchiha Clan’s leader.
• Natsu identified Issho as the powerful swordsman who had abandoned the Marines and ordered Tekka to bring him to Origin Island without searches or weapon inspections.

• The Uchiha powerhouses sensed Issho’s Observation Haki but withdrew their scrutiny when they recognized Tekka escorting him.
• Issho understood that the Uchiha Clan’s strength surpassed any active Four Emperors and reflected that his decision to seek them had not been impulsive.

Issho met Natsu to learn whether the Uchiha order in the West Blue could endure, and Natsu revealed that he had built it to establish his clan as the world's sole divine authority, not to save the people. Issho accepted a role defending the Divine Domain while keeping his personal vow to protect the innocent.

• Tekka escorted Issho to meet Natsu in the courtyard.

• Yaoyu and Yakumi returned to Origin Island and told Natsu that Monkey D. Dragon wanted to discuss cooperation between the Revolutionary Army and the Uchiha.
