Naito defeated Weevil and Buckingham Stussy, then used his Dream-Dream Fruit to break prisoners out of Impel Down and lead them toward the New World. The escapees evaded Zephyr’s Marines at Sabaody, while Naito received a place in Zephyr’s new Marine Guerrilla Unit and continued directing Luna from the Dream World.
Naito joined Zephyr’s Marine Guerrilla Unit, defeated Black Axe Leonard, and raided Punk Hazard with the escaped prisoners to claim Vegapunk’s inventions and a copied Azure Dragon fruit for Luna. After clashing with Doflamingo, Naito led the group toward Pirate Island as the Charlotte Family and Beasts Pirates closed in, while he continued training with the Marines.
Naito escaped the battle at Pirate Island, brought the Dunas Kingdom under his control, and went to Wano to recruit Kozuki Hiyori and Kozuki Sukiyaki for his plans. He negotiated with Kaido for Artificial Devil Fruit research and ended the stretch fighting Ashura Doji.
Naito strengthened his position by training with Garp, confronting Charlotte Linlin, and crushing pirate alliances while arranging allies in Wano. The arc leaves Yamato free and Kaido pursuing her, as Naito races to intervene in King’s assault near the Auguste Kingdom.
Naito defeated Paris and wounded King, then clashed with Kaido before returning to the expanding Dunas Kingdom and bringing Tesoro into his plans. As Naito headed toward the East Blue, Yamato reached Elbaf to find Scopper Gaban and tell the Roger Pirates Oden’s final story.
Yamato accepted that she could honor Oden while living as herself, while Naito ended a war, recruited Golden Lion Shiki as an ally, and took Sanji aboard his ship. The arc left Sanji awakening his Lineage Factor and testing his new speed, strength, and durability against Binz.
Naito infiltrated Mary Geoise during the Reverie, then used a staged attack and his Marine authority to bring down Doflamingo and free Dressrosa. After reporting the victory, he learned he needed one more major achievement for promotion as a golden-haired man approached the Moby Dick.
Naito defeated Golden Lion Shiki’s attack on G-14 Base and earned a promotion, while Luna’s giant beasts began conquering Affiliated Nations on World’s orders. The Marines and Ochoku prepared for conflict as Naito’s forces struck Hachinosu.
Naito defeated Ochoku, expanded his influence, and forced concessions from Elbaf and Kaido while developing Future Sight. When Golden Lion held a recruitment gathering in Naito’s territory, the two announced an alliance and invited the assembled pirates to choose between them.
Naito expanded his influence by recruiting pirates, gathering treasure and Pluton’s blueprints, and drawing Law into his personal world. The arc ended with Naito assembling tens of thousands of pirates at Hachinosu and preparing to expose hidden World Government agents.
Naito forced Boa Hancock to join the Marines’ campaign against Golden Lion, then became commander of the Marine Guerrilla Unit and left with the Shichibukai to pursue him. As the fleet set out, Hancock faced her fear of Mary Geoise while Naito was tasked with protecting Viola and concealing her tracking ability.
Naito helped Golden Lion Shiki escape the Marines’ pursuit and formed an alliance with him, then confronted Charlotte Linlin and Loki in Totto Land. After testing Loki’s strength and revealing Imu’s history, Naito persuaded Loki to join him in seeking Pluton at Punk Hazard.
Naito freed the Great Hammer Pirates and recruited allies while Loki confronted Imu’s forces. After escaping Impel Down with powerful prisoners, Naito declared war on Imu and withdrew from their first battle, leaving the final showdown ahead.
