• The old man told Jie Jian that Kaido's crew had made Onigashima their base and that Kozuki Oden had returned to rally the samurai.

• Jie Jian picked a Beasts Pirates member with a 500,000 bounty who guarded a nearby mine and decided to raid it that night.

• The leader transformed and claimed to wield the Mythical Zoan Genbu-Genbu Fruit, but Jie Jian checked the bounty poster and accused him of being a Turtle-Turtle Fruit user.

Jie Jian reflected on his lack of Haki and considered ways to develop the Shadow-Shadow Fruit. He managed to create a Shadow Mage, but discovered it had no autonomy and only followed his commands.

• King accepted Kaido’s approval, left the hall, and flew away with his black wings spread.
• Jie Jian hid in an uninhabited cave after his sneak attack and realized his Shadow Spike struggled against durable targets without Armament Haki.
• Jie Jian considered learning Haki through future battles and explored possible uses of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, including Shadow Mage, Shadow Revolution, and cutting away enemies’ shadows.
• Jie Jian formed a humanoid Shadow Mage and tested its movements, then realized it could only act when he gave it direct commands.

Jie Jian discovered that he could awaken his own shadow into an autonomous Shadow Mage that followed simple commands. At the mine, King examined the slain pirates and confidently concluded that dissatisfied Wano samurai were secretly attacking the Beasts Pirates.

• Jie Jian realized that shadows carried their owners’ personalities and combat abilities, so he tried drawing out his own shadow rather than manually shaping a clone.

Kaido ordered Oden to hand over the samurai who attacked the Beasts Pirates or lose their agreement, forcing Oden and the Nine Red Scabbards to consider how to respond without plunging Wano Country into war. Kanjuro proposed faking a culprit’s death with his drawings, but the others doubted his artistic ability.

• King convinced Kaido to demand that Oden surrender everyone responsible for attacking a pirate base, threatening to void their agreement.
• Kin'emon told Oden that Kaido blamed samurai under Oden's command and had given them a deadline to find the attackers.
• Cat Viper and Inuarashi urged the retainers to fight Kaido, but Oden refused to risk Wano Country in an all-out war.

• Kin'emon and Denjiro told Kanjuro that his drawings did not look convincing.

Oden stalled Kaido’s demand for the samurai who had ambushed him while secretly sending the Nine Red Scabbards to find and protect the man. After three days without the Beasts Pirates tracking him down, Jie Jian decided to return to their mine and provoke them, where the pirates were being offered a strange muscle-building injection.

• Kanjuro concealed his identity as Kurozumi Kanjuro, an undercover agent who had diverted Kozuki military funds and reported intelligence to Orochi.
• Oden and Kin'emon failed to find a way to satisfy Kaido, so Oden sent his retainers on a false search and secretly tasked the Nine Red Scabbards with finding the loyal samurai.
• Jie Jian wondered why the Beasts Pirates had not found him and, tired of living on unseasoned grilled meat, decided to go back to the mine and force a confrontation.
• Jie Jian reviewed his Shadow-Shadow Fruit abilities, including Shadow Mage, Shadow Person Swap, Shadow Ejection, and Shadow Suit, then raced toward the mine.
• At the mine, a pirate leader finished training his recruits and offered them syringes of a dark green substance called the Nine-Dragon Muscle-Building Needle, developed by Plague Queen.

The Beasts Pirates eagerly prepared to use Queen’s Nine-Dragon Needles, despite one pirate’s warning that the injections were veterinary medicine. Just as the boss ordered the scrawny pirate to receive a barrage of shots, Jie Jian fell from the sky and attacked, leaving the stunned pirates to face his question about whether they belonged to the Beasts Pirates.

• The pirate boss injected himself with a Nine-Dragon Needle and showed off the resulting swelling to the eager crowd.
• A scrawny pirate questioned whether Queen’s injections were safe for humans, and the boss accused him of wanting more shots.
• The boss ordered his men to give the scrawny pirate nine shots, and they pinned him down as he pleaded for help.
• The scrawny pirate spotted a figure falling from the sky, and Jie Jian struck the boss with a Giant Shadow Fist.
• Jie Jian stood over the crater containing the boss and asked the stunned pirates whether they were from the Beasts Pirates.

• Jie Jian realized he had attacked a mine without confirming who controlled it, then learned from its furious guard that it belonged to the Beasts Pirates.
• The guard transformed with the Hound-Hound Fruit, Model: Hound, and charged Jie Jian.
• Jie Jian summoned a shadow dog named Bruce, which enveloped the guard and bound him with shadow spikes.
• Jie Jian hurled a shadow spear at the guard, but the guard broke free and used Armament Haki to stop the spikes and deflect the spear.
• The guard taunted Jie Jian for lacking Haki, and Jie Jian recognized that his shadow attacks could not penetrate the Zoan user's defenses.

Jie Jian fought the Beasts Pirates' leader, using his shadow abilities to overcome the man's Armament Haki and finish him with a surprise attack. The leader fell dead, leaving Jie Jian standing after the battle.

• The pirate leader stopped his subordinates and challenged Jie Jian to fight him himself.
• Jie Jian used Shadow Propulsion and a compressed Shadow Spike to test the leader's defenses, but Armament Haki blocked his attack.
• Jie Jian summoned Shadow Mage and fought alongside the clone, but the leader easily endured their attacks and drove Jie Jian into a corner.
• As the leader threw a finishing punch, Jie Jian swapped places with Shadow Mage and moved above him.
• Jie Jian plunged two Shadow Spikes into the leader's eyes, piercing his brain and killing him.

Jie Jian defeated the pirates attacking the mine and let a survivor escape to summon Kaido’s forces. The survivor reported to King, who rejected his claim that the attacker used the Shadow-Shadow Fruit because he believed Gecko Moria was dead.

• Jie Jian used Shadow Mage position swaps and his Shadow Spike to kill more than a dozen pirates who charged him.
• Jie Jian spared the last fleeing pirate and told him to inform Kaido that Jie Jian was waiting at the mine.
• The skinny pirate reached another Beasts Pirates encampment, where King arrived and questioned him about the attack.
• The skinny pirate identified the attacker as a Shadow-Shadow Fruit user, and King slapped him for claiming Gecko Moria had returned.

King questioned the scrawny pirate about the mine attack, but rejected his account and forced him to claim the attacker was a Wano Country samurai. King decided Jie Jian belonged to the Akutami Family and flew to Onigashima to warn Kaido.

• King asked the scrawny pirate how he escaped the mine and what message the attacker had given him.
• The scrawny pirate said Jie Jian was waiting at the mine for Kaido, but King accused him of lying and slapped him repeatedly.
• King demanded to know who attacked the mine, and the scrawny pirate finally agreed to say it was a samurai from Wano Country.
• King connected the name Jie Jian to the Akutami Family and concluded that the family was seeking revenge on the Beasts Pirates.
• King told the scrawny pirate to recover, transformed into a Pterosaur, and flew toward Onigashima to inform Kaido.

King warned Kaido that the mine attack was a provocation and urged him to confront Oden about the Akutami Family retainer instead. Kaido flew to Snake City, attacked Oden during his naked dance, and demanded to know why Oden had sent people to strike his territory.

• King told Kaido that the attacker at the mine had deliberately stayed behind to lure him there, and advised him not to fall for the scheme.

• Kaido demanded to know why Oden had sent people to attack his territory.

Kaido confronted Oden over an attack by a supposed Akutami Family retainer, but Kurozumi Higurashi prevented a fight by urging both sides to stand down. After Kaido gave Oden three days to find the attacker, Kanjuro revealed the Akutami Family were manga artists who should already have died in an earlier accident involving Kaido.

• King accused Oden of secretly protecting the Akutami Family retainer who had attacked Kaido’s stronghold, and Oden denied knowing anything about the family.
• Kin'emon and the other Nine Red Scabbards arrived with Oden’s swords as Kaido prepared to fight.
• Kurozumi Higurashi intervened, warned Oden about endangering Wano’s people, and persuaded Kaido to leave the fight for another time.
