- Allen rescued Lilith on Punk Hazard, freed Dressrosa from Doflamingo’s control, and gathered allied forces as Imu’s plans advanced.
- Allen and the Combined Fleet faced trials involving joy, taste, slavery, grief, consciousness, alternate timelines, music, silence, and judgment, gaining new allies and artifacts along the way.
