Ch. 481Daily life: Masterful Go skills / Daily life: Off to kill some time
After leaving Jalle Island, Lin Mo headed toward Marineford, where he expected to arrive well before the major event he anticipated. He decided to take Rayleigh to Sabaody first, while Shusuke began adjusting to life aboard the Inkman.
- Kuina told Sendou she wanted to grow strong to protect her companions, and Sendou warned her that the path would demand great pain.
- Lin Mo saw Marineford as his next check-in destination and directed Kaku and Enel to steer the Inkman there.
- Kaku assigned Shusuke and Herald shipboard chores, then Rayleigh challenged Lin Mo to Go and lost all five games.
- Lin Mo decided to reward Rayleigh by taking him back to Sabaody, while Shusuke and Herald examined the fish Lin Mo had caught.
- A hailstorm struck the Inkman, and Shusuke was cut on the cheek while hurrying inside; he refused Herald's first aid, saying the pain made him feel human.
