Shanks and his crew anchor near Wano Country, and the red-haired captain senses the presence of a Marine admiral with his Haki. Meanwhile, the Nine Red Scabbards are celebrating a joyous festival when they suddenly feel an eerie presence. Denjiro takes the lead and gathers the samurai to confront the mysterious intruder, deciding to keep Luffy and his friends out of the fray for now.
Soon, they encounter Marine Admiral Ryokugyu, who casually states his intention to capture Luffy. The Red Scabbards go on the offensive, but the admiral effortlessly dodges their attacks. Ryokugyu then reveals his Forest-Forest Fruit powers, transforming into a massive tree and declaring that since Wano Country is not affiliated with the World Government, he can do as he pleases.
Just as the tension peaks, Yamato appears and delivers a powerful Haki-infused club strike to the admiral. Yamato vehemently rejects Ryokugyu's arrogant stance, adding a new layer of complexity to the confrontation.
Aboard the Red Force, the crew debates whether to meet up with Luffy or not. Shanks reminisces about the day Luffy ate the Gum-Gum Fruit and how he sacrificed his arm to save the young pirate. The newer crew members wonder about the personal connection between the big shots and Luffy, but the conversation shifts to Bartolomeo's recent actions against their territories and the shocking news that Sabo has killed King Cobra.
At Marine Headquarters, Admiral Sakazuki discusses the urgency of capturing Sabo, acknowledging the increasing activity of the Revolutionary Army. The mention of King Cobra's assassination and the disappearance of Princess Vivi hints at a world on the brink of upheaval.
Back in Wano Country, Ryokugyu, having recovered, battles Momonosuke, who attempts to attack in his dragon form but struggles to maintain his flame breath. Momonosuke, trapped in Ryokugyu's roots, insists that Yamato not interfere, adding an emotional weight to the high-stakes fight.
Sakazuki reflects on the burden of his responsibility as Fleet Admiral, resolved to face any challenge head-on. Meanwhile, Shanks sips sake aboard the Red Force, hinting at an impending monumental decision—it might be time to claim the One Piece.
