Wang Hao used his awakened Xuanming Bone Spikes to strengthen the Nine Li Tribe’s wall and remove Sha Qi from vicious-beast carcasses, easing the tribe’s defenses and food shortage.

• Wang Hao read his missions and learned that he had to help Boa Hancock become the World Protagonist and make her fall in love with him.
• Xiao Mengmeng insisted that the system had chosen correctly and suggested that Z had an unknown grudge with Boa Hancock.

Wang Hao learned that Marine Headquarters had discharged disabled Marines to fund new warships and confronted Sengoku about the decision. He left declaring that he would take in the discharged Marines from Headquarters and the branches.

• Ain told Wang Hao that Sal and the other survivors of Whitebeard II's attack planned to return to their hometowns after losing their Marine posts.

• Sengoku explained that the cuts were meant to strengthen the Marines against the growing pirate threat and satisfy the World Government and its member nations.
• Wang Hao announced that he would take the discharged Marines from Headquarters and the branches.

After using a dangerous secret method to repair Z’s injuries at the cost of thirty years of his lifespan, Wang Hao presented his Navy One Hundred and Eight Powers to Fleet Admiral Sengoku in exchange for decommissioned warships and supplies. Sengoku and the gathered Marines were stunned by the cultivation system’s scope and value.

• Ain and Binz broke into Z’s office after he had stayed inside for three days, and the door struck Wang Hao, interrupting his cultivation and making him cough up blood.

• Wang Hao asked Sengoku to exchange the Navy One Hundred and Eight Powers for decommissioned warships and living supplies.
• Sengoku, Garp, Tsuru, and the admirals examined the manuscripts and were astonished by the cultivation methods Wang Hao had created.

Wang Hao secured the Marines’ support for his cultivation system despite his worsening lung injury, then went to the Science Department to obtain a Devil Fruit before leaving headquarters. There, Sentomaru tried to obstruct him, but Wang Hao chose the Golden-Furred Berserk Ape Devil Fruit and had Ain take it.

• Garp slapped Wang Hao on the shoulder, causing him to cough up blood and a fragment of lung, and Tsuru rushed to help him.
• Sengoku consulted the three admirals and agreed that the Marines would assist Wang Hao; Wang Hao gave Tsuru a youth-preserving Secret Method and left.
• Garp realized Wang Hao had coughed up part of his lung, punched Sengoku, and stormed away, leaving Kizaru shaken and isolated.
• Wang Hao entered the Marine Science Department and asked to see the Devil Fruits stored there.
• Sentomaru falsely claimed Wang Hao could no longer select a mid- or low-grade Devil Fruit, but Wang Hao chose the Golden-Furred Berserk Ape Devil Fruit and had Ain take it down.

Wang Hao swallowed an artificial Golden-Furred Berserk Ape Devil Fruit, healed his lungs, and gained a golden tail and a flashy but useless Bloodline Divine Ability. As he prepared to leave with Ain, Sengoku and the others blamed Kizaru for the fruit and threatened to make him spar, while Wang Hao encouraged them to do so.

• Wang Hao swallowed the artificial Devil Fruit and directed its vitality to heal his lungs, but it left him with golden hair and a tail.
• Wang Hao awakened a Bloodline Divine Ability that made his hair and eyebrows glow without improving his abilities, then adjusted his physique to his preferred combat height.
• Ain warned Wang Hao about the fruit's flaws, but he reassured her and left with her to take charge of his subordinates.
• Garp tugged Wang Hao's tail, so Wang Hao struck him with it and then used Armament Haki to send him flying.
• Sengoku, Aokiji, and Akainu assumed Kizaru had given Wang Hao the flawed fruit and challenged him to spar, while Garp restrained him.
• Wang Hao clarified that Kizaru was not responsible but suggested the others spar with him anyway, leaving Kizaru convinced everyone was against him.

Vice Admiral Tsuru regained her youth and great strength through Wang Hao’s Yin Seal, then revealed that cultivating it cost half a year of lifespan. Wang Hao sailed away from Marine Headquarters, leaving Tsuru to teach the method while she confronted Kizaru over his subordinate’s role in making things difficult for him.

• Vice Admiral Tsuru arrived looking young and powerful, stunned Sengoku and the other officers, and struck Garp down when he commented on her appearance.
• Tsuru credited Wang Hao’s Yin Seal, and Wang Hao explained its demanding Haki requirements and that both men and women could cultivate it at the cost of half a year of lifespan.
• Gion asked to learn the Yin Seal, and Wang Hao said Tsuru could teach it after each student adapted the method to suit themselves.
• Wang Hao saluted the officers and departed Marine Headquarters with more than a hundred warships, while Tsuru stayed behind to teach Gion.
• Tsuru blamed Kizaru’s deputy, Sentomaru, for obstructing Wang Hao and challenged Kizaru, who agreed to spar in hopes of learning the Yin Seal.
• Sengoku, Akainu, Aokiji, and Garp joined in restricting Kizaru’s Devil Fruit ability during their sparring, and Kizaru regretted boasting that he was unafraid.

Sengoku, Garp, the Admirals, and Vice Admiral Tsuru failed to adapt Wang Hao’s Yin Seal method and decided to send Kizaru after him for help. Meanwhile, Wang Hao reached Sabaody Archipelago and began arranging to seize its first twenty-nine mangroves and turn them into a mobile base, then confronted Kizaru with a pointed remark about his former expectations.

• Sengoku and the others spent a month failing to modify the Yin Seal method, while Vice Admiral Tsuru admitted she had made no progress either.
• Sengoku ordered Kizaru to catch up with Wang Hao after Garp suggested asking him for help.
• Wang Hao explained to Binz and Ain that he planned to take Sabaody Archipelago’s first twenty-nine mangroves for a home for disabled Marines and a mobile base.

• Wang Hao revealed that Kizaru had secretly boarded the flagship and told him he had once held the greatest hopes for him among the three Admirals.

Wang Hao persuaded Kizaru that he was the best candidate to lead the Marines and gave him a custom Golden Light Sword Canon, winning his renewed loyalty. He then revealed that the Yin Seal could develop into a system for storing and circulating Armament Haki, which he planned to use as bait in his effort to take control of the Sabaody Archipelago.

• Wang Hao praised Kizaru’s talent and wisdom, urged him to explain his dispirited attitude, and said he had hoped to groom him as the next fleet admiral.
• Kizaru promised to set himself right, and Wang Hao gave him the Golden Light Sword Canon he had prepared for him.
• Kizaru apologized and knelt, moved by what he believed was his teacher’s care; Wang Hao helped him up and asked why he had come.
• Kizaru explained that Sengoku had sent him to ask about the Yin Seal, and Wang Hao revealed that its later stages would store Armament Haki and circulate it through nodes and meridians.
• Wang Hao admitted that the later stages remained unfinished and planned to use the Yin Seal as bait to gain support for taking the Sabaody Archipelago.

Kizaru discovered that Wang Hao had created an immense cultivation method for him, then alerted Sengoku to the danger of a clash over Sabaody. Akainu, Garp, Aokiji, and other Marines rushed to join Wang Hao, while Tsuru stayed behind at Marine Headquarters.

• Wang Hao sent Kizaru to his office, where Ain showed him the eleven towering stacks that made up the Golden Light Sword Canon.
• Ain explained that Wang Hao had also begun writing cultivation methods for Aokiji, Akainu, Sengoku, Garp, Tsuru, and others, and Kizaru called Sengoku to report the Yin Seal's later stages and the danger on Sabaody.
• After Kizaru teased the others about receiving a powerful method, Akainu invented a crisis as an excuse to rush to Sabaody and seek a method of his own.
• Garp and Aokiji also fabricated reasons to support Wang Hao, and Gion and the other vice admirals hurried out after them.
• Sengoku asked Tsuru to go in his place, but she chose to stay at headquarters, believing Wang Hao would eventually make a method for her.

Wang Hao prepared to draw the Sabaody Archipelago’s dark forces into a battle at sea while Kizaru demonstrated his improved sword technique. A rescued fish-man named Feile challenged Wang Hao over his praise of Fisher Tiger, leaving their conversation unresolved.

• Kizaru used Excalibur to destroy a boat of underworld agents approaching the Marine fleet.
• Wang Hao told Kizaru to lure the Sabaody powers into revealing their forces so they could be fought at sea.
• Wang Hao reflected on Devil Fruit powers and the threat posed by the World Government before Ain brought him a rescued fish-man.
• Feile corrected Wang Hao, saying he belonged to the Sun Pirates, and Wang Hao argued that Tiger’s group was an adventure crew rather than pirates.
• Feile asked how Wang Hao, a human and former Marine admiral, could call Tiger a great hero.

Wang Hao agreed to help Feile rescue Fish-Man Island residents enslaved on ships near Sabaody and warned him that Queen Otohime might be targeted. As Wang Hao and Kizaru prepared for the coming confrontation, Rayleigh wondered why the Marines had arrived and considered meeting his old friend.

• Wang Hao defended Fisher Tiger’s rescue of his people and persuaded Feile to apologize for his hostility toward humans of the majority race.
• Feile asked Wang Hao to help rescue Fish-Man Island residents held aboard ships, and Wang Hao agreed that Feile could lead the operation while the Marines stayed away from the World Government’s CP agents.
• Wang Hao warned Feile of a threat to Queen Otohime and gave him a bottle of life essence to deliver to her.
• Kizaru reported that preparations were complete, and Wang Hao said seven admiral-level fighters were on Sabaody as Kizaru volunteered to face them.
• Rayleigh and a woman in a bar discussed the unusual Marine deployment, and Rayleigh considered visiting Wang Hao to ask what was happening.

Wang Hao waited at Sabaody Archipelago for its factions to respond to his planned assault on the lawless zone, while Steel Bone Kong arrived on behalf of the World Government to demand the Yin Seal method. After Wang Hao secured Kong’s cooperation, Rayleigh spotted Kong among the government forces and realized the operation was a trap.

• Wang Hao, Ain, Binz, and Kizaru waited near Sabaody Archipelago as Kizaru sensed several powerful opponents there.
• Steel Bone Kong arrived and asked Wang Hao for the Yin Seal method and information about the Navy One Hundred and Eight Powers.
• Wang Hao agreed to provide the Yin Seal method after a Buster Call destroyed the first twenty-nine tree islands, and Kong revealed that seven admiral-level fighters and over a hundred vice admirals were preparing to attack.
• Wang Hao told Steel Bone Kong to force the enemy fighters together, promising to handle them himself, and Kong returned to arrange cooperation.
• Dozens of ships carrying Sabaody Archipelago’s fighters approached, and Rayleigh recognized Steel Bone Kong aboard the government cruise ship and concluded that the operation was a trap.

Blackhearted One and six pirate leaders attacked the Marines after confirming no major ambush, but Wang Hao’s overwhelming presence shattered their combined Conqueror’s Haki and began awakening his own. As the battle spread across the fleet, Blackhearted One slipped past Kizaru and targeted Ain as a hostage.

• Blackhearted One confirmed with Wulu that the enemy fleet had no admiral-level ambush nearby, then challenged Kizaru and demanded the Marines withdraw.
• Wang Hao blasted apart the seven pirates’ combined Conqueror’s Haki with his presence, while Steel Bone Kong and Rayleigh reacted with disbelief.
• Wang Hao reassured Ain and Binz about his lost arm as his presence began to transform toward Conqueror’s Haki.
• Blackhearted One and the other pirates launched their attack, and Kizaru, Steel Bone Kong, and the CP powerhouses engaged the seven leaders while their crews threatened the warships.
• Blackhearted One used lightning to get behind Wang Hao while another pirate slowed Kizaru with a Slow-Slow Beam, then Blackhearted One targeted Ain to take her hostage.

Wang Hao captured Blackhearted One and unleashed a knockoff Kamehameha that devastated the sea and sent a tsunami toward the Sabaody Archipelago. After Aokiji Kuzan stopped the waves, Garp asked to learn the move, and Wang Hao wondered why the Marines had all come.

• Wang Hao seized Blackhearted One as he attacked Ain, paralyzed him with Haki, and ordered Marines to restrain him with Seastone shackles.
• Wulu and the other pirates retreated, but Wang Hao and the arriving Marines drove them together while Kizaru channeled sunlight into Wang Hao.
• Wang Hao fired his knockoff Kamehameha, and the Marines' long-range attacks shattered the Slow-Slow Beam and triggered a massive explosion.
• The blast created a towering tsunami, so Kizaru opened the energy sphere and Aokiji Kuzan froze the waves before collapsing from exhaustion.
• Kizaru and Garp asked to learn the Kamehameha, and Wang Hao explained the physical demands before asking why the Marines had arrived.

Wang Hao gave the Marines specialized cultivation methods while distracting the World Government with warehouses of Yin Seal material. He exposed Vergo as Doflamingo’s spy, and Sengoku ordered the suspected agents taken for interrogation.

• Gion asked Wang Hao to improve Vice Admiral Tsuru’s teachable Yin Seal method, and he promised to provide material to help her adapt it.

• Wang Hao used enhanced Observation Haki to transmit personalized cultivation methods and martial techniques to Sengoku, Garp, Gion, Kizaru, and the other Marines.
• Wang Hao refused to train Vergo and accused him of being Doflamingo’s spy; Vergo confessed, and Sengoku ordered him and the other suspected agents taken for interrogation.
• Gion realized Vergo’s betrayal had helped Doflamingo evade Vice Admiral Tsuru and looked at him with murderous intent.

Steel Bone Kong told the Five Elders that the Yin Seal information was genuine and that Z had at most a year of natural life left, while they focused on finding Roger’s Eternal Pose. At Sabaody, Wang Hao guided Navy officers in developing their Devil Fruits and left Steve’s metal body changing into unfamiliar substances.

• As Wang Hao spoke, Steve’s right hand turned dark black and his left hand turned brilliant gold.

• Illya’s vertical eye evolved into a golden-patterned Rinnegan, and she formed and then withdrew a giant Susanoo before thanking Wang Hao.
