• Yas crushed the bullet to dust, and Van Augur saw him look up and silently say, “Found you.”

• At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku condemned Yas's declaration against the world, while Garp laughed and dared its enemies to challenge him.
• Yas arrived above Marineford, and a Five Elder praised his actions before assigning him a mission to retrieve the Time-Time Fruit from Kuraigana Island.

Yas revealed a divine power that silenced the island and summoned Heavenly Thunder Burial, leaving Big Mom and her crew frozen in terror as azure lightning began to fall.

• Big Mom used Soul Pocus to transform Kuraigana Island and the surrounding sea into tens of thousands of Homies, enlarging Zeus and Prometheus as well.

• A child's hopeful whisper of “Nika” briefly made Yas pause, but his killing intent soon returned.
• Saint Charlos ordered his guards to fire at Yas, and Yas's will stopped the weapons and knocked out the guards and weaker Celestial Dragons.
