Chapter Summaries

Uya faced Marine Headquarters vice admirals in a series of sword challenges and defeated them, including Doberman, Strawberry, Onigumo, and Momonga. After defeating ten vice admirals, his Sword Intent grew increasingly condensed and soared through Marine Headquarters.

• Uya's Sword Intent grew so powerful that even ordinary Marine soldiers sensed its sharpness across Marine Headquarters.

Sengoku reconsidered Uya’s potential after learning of his swordsmanship, while noting that his apparent weakness was Haki. Uya defeated every Marine Headquarters vice admiral in swordsmanship, leaving the Marines wondering whether he could rival an admiral.

• Sengoku learned that Uya had challenged the vice admirals to sword fights and worried that his strength across several areas could make him a rival to Whitebeard, though he thought Uya’s Haki was still weak.

• The Marines wondered whether Uya had reached admiral-level strength, while two defeated vice admirals said proficient Haki could let him rival an admiral.

Admiral Akainu arrived at the lounge and reprimanded the vice admirals for fighting there, then confronted Uya as the latter was nearing a breakthrough in swordsmanship. Uya provoked Akainu with his dismissive replies, leaving the furious admiral on the verge of attacking him.

• Uya absorbed the sword intents he had experienced and neared the realm of a great swordmaster before Akainu interrupted him.

• The vice admirals fell silent as Akainu's fury and heat filled the lounge, fearing he would attack Uya and damage Marine Headquarters.

Uya effortlessly blocked Akainu’s attacks with the Ame-no-Murakumo Sword, then struck him with a barehanded punch that blasted him through Marine Headquarters and into the plaza. The Marines realized Uya’s strength rivaled Garp’s, explaining his standing at Headquarters and his draw with Hawk-Eye.

• The watching Marines, including Vice Admiral Momonga, realized Uya’s strength could rival Garp’s and understood why he held such high standing.

Uya sent Akainu crashing through Marine Headquarters and into the plaza, leaving Akainu injured and the fortress badly damaged. Sengoku and the other senior Marines stopped them from fighting again, but Sengoku was left facing the difficult question of how to punish them.

• Uya reflected on how much his strength had recovered after punching Akainu into the plaza.
• Kizaru, Aokiji, Garp, and Sengoku arrived and saw the damage to Marine Headquarters and the crater below.

• Uya descended into the plaza, but Aokiji, Kizaru, Garp, and Sengoku stepped between him and Akainu.
• Sengoku rebuked Akainu for attacking Uya against orders, while Akainu argued that Uya was unfit to be a Marine.
• Sengoku wondered whether he should punish Uya, Akainu, or both.

Uya challenged Akainu’s claims about Marine justice and used Ain to name the Four Emperors. He ordered her to prepare a ship so he could visit all four, leaving Marine Headquarters stunned as she set off to arrange it.

• Uya announced that he would visit the Four Emperors, shocking the Marines and their leaders.
• Ain asked what kind of warship Uya wanted, accepted his answer that any ship would do, and went to prepare one.

After Uya announced that he would challenge one of the Four Emperors, Sengoku reported the situation to the Five Elders, who chose to wait and see. Uya set out with Ain for Whole Cake Island to face the Big Mom Pirates, then vanished from the warship as Ain resolved to follow him.

• Uya chose to begin with the Big Mom Pirates at Whole Cake Island, then vanished from the deck as Ain decided to follow him to the end.

Big Mom dismissed Uya’s announced visit to Totto Land and sent Charlotte Cracker to drive him away. Cracker intercepted the Navy warship carrying Uya and Ain, demanding that Uya come out to face him.

• Cracker taunted the Navy crew and called for Uya to come out of hiding.

Ain confronted Charlotte Cracker as Uya’s warship approached his pirate ship, using her time-based ability to erase his biscuit armor and soldiers. Cracker kept sending copies to attack, while Ain held her ground, leaving the Marines wondering how powerful Uya might be.

• Cracker leaped from his pirate ship toward the warship, and Ain struck his biscuit armor with peach-pink flames.
• Ain made the flames spread across the armor until it vanished, revealing Cracker’s real body as he retreated to his ship.
• Cracker created several biscuit soldiers, and Ain erased them as they charged her.
• Cracker continued producing soldiers, while Ain stood firm against his attacks.
• The Marines watched Ain hold off Cracker and began to wonder whether Uya could take on an emperor’s pirate crew.

Ain gradually lost ground against Cracker because she could not use Armament Haki, but Uya appeared in time to stop Cracker’s sword with two fingers. Uya broke Cracker’s Haki-coated sword and killed him with a tremor, then reflected on his recovery and plans to remain in this world until he was fully restored.

• The pirates prepared to attack Uya and Ain, then parted to reveal Charlotte Linlin and her officers.

• Uya blasted Charlotte Linlin deep underground with Evening Elephant, shattered Whole Cake Island, and returned to his warship as Ain realized Linlin seemed to have gone silent.
• Uya told the Marines aboard to leave, while the warship escaped the island's waves and the crew struggled to believe they had defeated an Emperor's pirate crew.
