• Xie Wen called Shanks, Whitebeard, and Morgans, proposing that the former two take in the Big Mom Pirates and sending Morgans footage of Uranus’s destruction and Pangaea Castle’s ruin.
• Kaido Meow brought Xie Wen the captured S-Shadow and S-Handsome, and Xie Wen ordered them confined and later handed over to Edison.

• Affiliated Nations and Marine Branches broke away from the World Government, while the Revolutionary Army and its allies worked to contain wars and suppress Marine warlords.
• Dragon and Xie Wen prepared for Imu’s retaliation as Meowrah, Ai Haibara Meow, Lindbergh, and Edison built more Valstrax and Paw-Paw Fruit users.

• Dragon said the Revolutionary Army could not locate Imu, but Xie Wen claimed Klee Meow’s Tail-Spinning Direction-Finding Technique could find him.

After the Big Mom Pirates split between Whitebeard, the Beasts Pirates, and their own surviving crew, Xie Wen and Dragon gained new allies against Imu. Borsalino reported the Marineford massacre, and Klee Meow and Touma Meow pointed in opposite directions while trying to locate Imu.

• Whitebeard and Kaido let the Big Mom Pirates choose their allegiances, and Katakuri, Perospero, Judge, and Reiju chose to preserve their crew rather than join either side.
• Shanks offered to escort former Big Mom Pirates who wanted to return to their homelands, while Perospero agreed to fight alongside the Revolutionary Army.

• Xie Wen taunted Imu and leaped at him with his Fire-Tipped Spear, using Spine-Scattering Ruinous Cyclone: Heaven.

Xie Wen fought Imu and the Five Elders after Imu’s destructive gambit, while Klee Meow and Shalmeow engaged the Elders. Xie Wen mocked Imu for lacking Conqueror’s Haki, provoking him to transform into a giant devil just as Xie Wen struck.

• A Five Elder wielding the Ice-Ice Fruit created an ice wall, but Klee Meow’s Heavenly Silk vaporized it as Fengxi blocked Xie Wen’s attack.
• Saint Mars, Saint Garling, Horse Bone, and the Ice-Ice Fruit user joined the attack, while Klee Meow and Shalmeow broke off to fight the Elders and their Ice Spirit Homies.

• Imu struck at Xie Wen with his hardened tail, and Xie Wen mocked him for lacking Conqueror’s Haki.
• Imu flew into a rage and transformed into a giant scarlet devil as Xie Wen launched his Crimson Heaven Dragon Vengeful Slash.

Xie Wen fought Imu, learned that the World King relied on powerful Devil Fruit abilities rather than combat skill, and realized Imu was trying to isolate him from the cats. When Imu and the Five Elders sprang a trap, Xie Wen teleported beside Klee Meow and escaped their attacks.

• Xie Wen adjusted to Imu’s teleportation and held him off while monitoring the battlefield with Observation Haki.

After Imu escaped using his teleportation, Xie Wen gathered allies to develop ways to stop him and limit his power. The group refined their plans and headed toward Gecko Moria's location.

• Imu killed the surrounding Homies and teleported away with the Five Elders, leaving Xie Wen unable to pursue him safely.
• Xie Wen decided to wait for his allies and considered countermeasures involving soul powers, spatial disruption, Seastone, seawater, and Conqueror's Haki.
• Dudu Valstrax brought Hua Mei Meow, Robin, and others to Xie Wen, who explained Imu's escape and his proposed plans.
• Meowrah, Brook, Whitebeard, and Shanks offered help with spatial disruption, soul abilities, spatial powers, and searching for the Dark-Dark Fruit.
• Hua Mei Meow proposed publicizing Imu's crimes to limit his ability to replenish his energy, while Robin suggested targeting the Five Elders.
• The group refined their plans and flew toward Gecko Moria's location based on information from Shanks.

Xie Wen tracked down Gecko Moria and his remaining companions while seeking help against Imu. He asked to borrow Perona, but Moria attacked to stop him from taking her.

• Xie Wen found Moria’s hideout using information from Morgans and Shanks about Absalom’s work as a journalist.
• The townspeople welcomed Xie Wen and the Felines as the Toot Toot Forward landed nearby.

• Moria realized Xie Wen had asked to borrow Perona from the start, then insisted on accompanying her, and Absalom joined them as well.
• Xie Wen brought Moria, Perona, and Absalom back to Baltigo, where Brook, Whitebeard, and the others had gathered.
• Shirahoshi and Jinx Meow arrived with Jinbe, Neptune's Three Brothers, and the Sun Pirates, who then headed out to intercept roving pirates.
