Mb | Oct 3, 2025 | Reading Time: 2 Min.
The episode begins with Dr. Vegapunk's pre-recorded voice suddenly being heard all over the world. The broadcast reaches both civilians and key figures in all seas via the Marine's Transponder Snails. Vegapunk announces his intention to reveal the "truth of the world" and grants the world a 10-minute preparation period to set up video Transponder Snails for the full picture signal. This announcement triggers various reactions from the population worldwide, ranging from curiosity to sheer terror.
While the world waits, the battle on Egghead continues. Luffy in Gear Five continues his fight against Saint Saturn and Admiral Kizaru. Despite Luffy's determined attacks, including a Gum-Gum Dawn Cymbal attack, Saturn proves to be extremely resilient due to his regenerative abilities. The World Government's determination to stop the broadcast at any cost grows with each passing minute.
In the final scene of the episode, the World Government realizes that the current threat posed by Luffy and Vegapunk's message can no longer be controlled by Saturn alone. In response, Saturn initiates a summoning, accompanied by the same black lightning that heralded his own arrival. This dramatically hints at the arrival of the remaining Five Elders on the battlefield of Egghead, raising the threat level for the Straw Hat Pirates and their allies to an unprecedented level.
