The Revolutionary Army swept through Wano, easily overcoming Orochi’s forces and organizing the forced relocation of villagers from places made unlivable by generations of oppressive rule. As Tamura Nichigetsu and his family joined the growing tide of displaced people, Leo’s plan left the Revolutionary Army acting as the power reshaping Wano’s population and settlements.

• The Revolutionary Army advanced across Wano in three army groups, splitting into specialized teams to map the land and relocate residents.
• Tamura Nichigetsu and his parents were ordered from their home and gathered with other frightened villagers at the village entrance.
• Revolutionary Army interpreters directed the villagers toward the harbor as people from nearby settlements joined the organized relocation.
• Leo’s approach used the Revolutionary Army’s outsider status to force residents from harsh, impoverished regions to begin new lives elsewhere.

Tamura Nichigetsu and his family reached a Revolutionary Army settlement, where wary Wano Country villagers were organized and told they would receive food and work. As Tamura and his starving parents watched others eat bread filled with ham, they wondered whether everyone would get some or have to earn it.

• Tamura Nichigetsu and his parents arrived at the Revolutionary Army settlement after a long journey, refusing help because they feared being accused of siding with the army.

• Tamura Nichigetsu and Tamura Takao watched villagers eat bread filled with ham and wondered whether they would receive food too.

Tamura Nichigetsu and his family entered a Revolutionary Army camp, where a ham sandwich and comfortable tent made them feel less afraid of their unfamiliar hosts. After receiving supplies they did not know how to use, Nichigetsu’s father worried that the army might be preparing to send him to battle.

• Tamura Nichigetsu devoured a ham sandwich while his parents watched, then his family wondered whether they would ever get another one.

The Revolutionary Army continued its campaign to conquer Wano, while Jozu, Vista, and the other former Whitebeard Pirates delayed their offensive to give Inuarashi a chance to persuade Oden's retainers. The retainers faced dwindling support and had to choose a course before sunrise, with Hiyori still absent.

• The Revolutionary Army maintained its determination to conquer Wano because of its strategic position and Seastone production, and Leo regarded Inuarashi as a major threat because of his Haki and marksmanship.
• Jozu, Vista, and the others delayed their attack for a day and urged Inuarashi to gather Oden's retainers, drawing complaints from Revolutionary Army soldiers that Sabo dismissed.
• Denjiro, Inuarashi, Kikunojo, Ashura Doji, and Kawamatsu met in the main hall and lamented their depleted forces and the loss of most of the samurai they had recruited.
• Denjiro asked whether they should wait for Hiyori, but Inuarashi said they could not delay and demanded a decision before sunrise.

• Momonosuke and the retainers knelt before Luffy and asked him to help reclaim Wano Country.

• The Tamura Family received food, assigned labor, and night-school lessons from the Revolutionary Army, while Tamura Nichigetsu enjoyed his new life as a student.

Leo met with Hiyori and the Nine Red Scabbards alongside Shimotsuki Koshiro, then told them the Revolutionary Army was dismantling Wano Country’s old ruling order. The chapter left Hiyori furious after she learned that the nobles were being relocated, preventing Momonosuke from ruling through the former nobles and samurai.

• Leo introduced Shimotsuki Koshiro to Hiyori and the Nine Red Scabbards as a Revolutionary Army swordsmanship instructor from Wano’s Shimotsuki Family.

• Hiyori crumpled the newspaper and angrily demanded to know how Leo could do this.

Hiyori watched the Revolutionary Army remove Wano Country’s nobles and samurai from power, while Luffy refused Momonosuke’s request to help reclaim the country. Kin'emon restored Momonosuke’s confidence, and Momonosuke set off to ask Luffy to take them back to Wano Country.

• The Revolutionary Army forced Wano Country’s nobles and samurai to leave, offering compensation for their property, and Hiyori realized its new rule had eliminated the old order.
• Luffy refused Momonosuke’s request for help, explaining that he would not support a war against the Revolutionary Army to reclaim the Kozuki Family’s power.

• Momonosuke regained hope and ran after Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates to ask them to take the group to Wano Country.

Leo confronted Hiyori Kozuki and the Nine Red Scabbards over their plan to restore the Kozuki Family’s rule in Wano Country, arguing that the Revolutionary Army’s ability to improve people’s lives had undermined their claim to legitimacy. He left them speechless and challenged them to see for themselves whether people would still support monarchy after experiencing prosperity under the Revolutionary Army.

• Leo told Hiyori Kozuki and the Nine Red Scabbards that the Revolutionary Army would not let them reclaim Wano Country for the Kozuki Family.
• Leo explained that he had recognized their plan to drive out the Revolutionary Army and had agreed to their terms only to spare their lives.
• Leo argued that the Kozuki Family’s legitimacy depended on improving ordinary people’s lives, not on bloodline, and that the Revolutionary Army could offer the same or better prosperity.
• Denjiro objected, but Leo asked whether people would still accept the Kozuki Family’s bloodline claim if the Revolutionary Army gave them a better life.
• Leo invited Hiyori Kozuki and the Nine Red Scabbards to travel through Wano Country and other Revolutionary Army territories, then test whether prosperous people would support monarchy.

Leo dismantled Hiyori and the Nine Red Scabbards’ defense of Kozuki rule by challenging its legitimacy and explaining why feudal power had survived. The Scabbards settled near Revolutionary Army Headquarters to await Momonosuke, where they saw the merchants gathering to trade in Wano Country.

• Hiyori and the Nine Red Scabbards realized they could not argue against Leo’s case for ending feudal rule.

• Hiyori and the Nine Red Scabbards took Momonosuke to a private room, where Hiyori began explaining what had happened in Wano Country.

Momonosuke struck Hiyori for surrendering Wano Country to the Revolutionary Army, then considered gathering forces to fight back. Hiyori warned that the Revolutionary Army controlled the Dragon Ascent Path, leaving the Kozuki Family unable to return to Wano Country easily.

• Momonosuke slapped Hiyori and angrily accused her of surrendering on behalf of the Kozuki Family.

• The Nine Red Scabbards and Momonosuke fell silent as they realized how completely the Revolutionary Army controlled Wano Country.

• Leo stood aside and reminded Hiyori that the Revolutionary Army did not like kneeling.

Hiyori went to Leo to ask him to spare Momonosuke, having judged that her brother and the Nine Red Scabbards could not defeat the Revolutionary Army. Leo recognized her gamble and entrusted her to Bartholomew Kuma, while Hiyori reflected on how deeply Momonosuke had disappointed her.

• Hiyori concluded that Momonosuke was unreliable and that she had to save his life herself.

Leo ordered the Vice Admirals to assemble after Hiyori’s attempt to trade her obedience for Momonosuke’s life confirmed the split between their sides. He then told Hiyori about Tama’s Devil Fruit, leaving her alarmed that the Revolutionary Army might exploit the girl’s power and strip her of her freedom.

• Leo concluded that the Nine Red Scabbards had sided with Momonosuke and ordered Robin to summon the Vice Admirals.

He invited Hiyori to enter Revolutionary Army politics and rise through its government, leaving her to consider his offer as he showed her a map.

• Leo asked Hiyori to enter Revolutionary Army politics and work her way up to his position.

• Robin reflected on Leo’s efforts to cultivate successors and on the challenges Sengoku and Tsuru faced exchanging Beli for the Revolutionary Army’s new currency.
• Leo led Robin and Hiyori into the map room, which held the Revolutionary Army’s vast library and secret survey charts and hydrographic maps.
• Leo told Hiyori she had to help some places escape poverty before she could bargain with him over Momonosuke’s life.
• Hiyori asked what she should do, and Leo told Robin to take her to change because the Revolutionary Army had no need for clothes like her kimono.
