A wide view of Ebisu Town shows a lively settlement with pagodas and wooden buildings. Narration boxes read: "THIS IS THE TOWN THAT LIVES OFF THE LEFTOVERS OF THE FLOWER CAPITAL. EBISU TOWN." and "LET US TURN BACK THE CLOCK A LITTLE." Laughter echoes throughout: "どわっはっはっはっは!!" "ぎゃっははっは!!" A crowd of smiling townspeople greets a returning figure. One shouts "GYAHHAHAHA! I'M STARVIN' TO DEATH OUT HERE!" Another calls "YASU! WELCOME BACK, BUT WE STILL DON'T GOT ANY FOOD!" Voices ring out: "OH! YOU'RE BACK, HUH, TONOYASU!" and "TONOYASU!" In the lower panel a serious man with a topknot and kimono stands with arms crossed while a man in polka-dot clothing gestures wildly and declares "IT'S JUST THAT AMONG ALL THE ANIMALS ON THIS GREEN EARTH, THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN SMILE IS MAN!" The polka-dot man continues "IY O! WHAT AN EYE YOU'VE GOT, MISTER! EVERYONE DOES SEEM TO BE HAVING FUN, DON'T THEYI" and "MAKES YA FEEL LIKE SMILIN', DON'T ITI" The serious man thinks "THE ATMOSPHERE'S A BIT DIFFERENT THAN LEFTOVER TOWN IN KURI." More laughter fills the air: "はっはっは!!"

Townspeople continue reacting to the serious ronin. One exclaims "HE'S GOT THREE SWORDS IN HIS BELT!" Another asks "TONOYASU! WHO IS THIS RONINI!" The polka-dot man laughs "DAHAHA! I'M SO NUTRIENT DEFICIENT THAT MY TEETH ARE FALLIN' OUT!" while a woman cries "MOM! I'M HUNGRY!" and a child shouts "ME TOO!" The polka-dot man addresses the ronin: "COME, COME NOW! THIS MISTER'S FALLEN IN LOVE WITH ME AT FIRST SIGHT!" and "OI! ARE YOU SOME KINDA COMEDIAN! THIS IS PRETTY FUNNY! WAHAHA!" A hooded figure warns "OH, MY! THAT'S DANGEROUS, YOU KNOW. HANGING AROUND THIS STRANGE MAN!" while another claims "OI, OI! I'M THE ONE AND ONLY GRAND TATKO DRUMMER, YOU KNOW!" A woman points and yells "HE CAME BACK LAST NIGHT! THE OX-THREE BOY!" The ronin finally speaks with a flat "はは" as townspeople react with "THAT'S RIGHT! GUESS WHAT, TONOYASU!" and "WHATEVER YOU SAY! LOOK AT THIS SCARY FACE! COME ON NOW, SMILE! SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENED TO THIS TOWN TODAY!" Laughter and sound effects continue throughout the scene.

In Ebisu Town at night, townsfolk recount the legend of a mysterious thief: "Steals money from the evil, rich people of the capital, and scatters it around the longhouses of the poor district! He appears in the dead of night, at the third hour of the ox." A grinning old man adds, "We don't know who he is or where he's from, but..." Zoro smirks and asks, "Oxf-freeI" Villagers laugh and feast, explaining, "That's why we all went and bought a feast today! They say fortune comes to a smiling family, don't theyI! I wish I could thank him, hahahaha! Who in the world is he, thoughI!" Zoro stares at a cup of clear water with a question mark. A smiling woman in a kimono offers, "Here, a glass! Have some, Mr. Ronin!" Below, people celebrate: "We bought it with that money! Clear water!" Laughter echoes as the town parties under the stars.

The woman insists, "So you must be a good person! Drink up! Everyone's got the right to have some!" A man hands a cup: "Yasu brought you here. Your tummy won't hurt after, I promise!" Zoro refuses, "No, I..." Townspeople cheer with clear water. A note reads: "T/N: Ebisu is a god often depicted smiling." Villagers explain, "We ain't gonna lose to poverty! They call it the Ebisu smile, mister! If you don't smile, fortune'll never come your way." One adds, "It's yummy, isn't itI Soaks into ya! Come on, not that boring face again!" Zoro remains stoic. "Even if we cry, we gotta smile for good! That's why this place is Ebisu Town." The scene shifts to the present at Onigashima as Big Mom's ship approaches through stormy seas.

At Onigashima in the present, a massive horned ship sails through rough waves. Voices shout, "Shoot 'em full of holes! Don't you dare let her enter this country! That bloody hag! They're approaching from the southeastern seas!" On deck, a man with a long tongue yells, "We knew these idiots were coming! Sink them already!" Another snaps, "Shut it! I don't care! Big Mom's information network's the best in the business! Who told them how to get up the waterfallI! They've tied ropes to the koi and are being towed in!" Explosions and cannon fire erupt. Big Mom's laughter rings out: "Mamamama! Hahahahaha!" Her ship charges forward amid massive splashes and debris.

Big Mom Pirates clash with defenders. A woman with a parasol yells, "It's no use! They're reflecting our cannonfire!" Explosions and "Luchi!!" ring out. Big Mom stands tall on her ship, arms spread: "Just you wait, Straw Hat! I'm here, Kaido! Haaaaa hahaha haha! Zeus! You're comin' back with me, too!" Her massive form dominates the panel with "BIG MOM PIRATES" emblazoned below. Allies and enemies tumble amid cannon smoke and waves as the assault intensifies.

Big Mom's massive ship surges upward against the roaring waterfall as her crew clings to the hull. "ARE LINLIN'S LITTLE BRATS WITH HERI! QUITE A FEW, IT SEEMS!" one pirate yells while another shouts, "SHE'S ACTUALLY GOING UP THE WATERFALL! WE DIDN'T EXPECT THIS!" Big Mom's furious face fills a panel as she roars, "WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS DOINGI! DON'T LET HER IN, DAMN IT!" Perospero urges from the side, "CLIMB THAT WATERFALL!" The ship bursts through the water with explosive force. "WE'RE HERE! WANO COUNTRY!" the crew cheers. Big Mom laughs wildly, "HAH HAH HAH HA! MAAAA MAMA MAMA!" as Perospero warns, "IF SHE COMES ASHORE, IT'LL BE ALL-OUT WAR! HER KIDS ARE HER COMMANDERS! BUT WE'RE NOT EQUIPPED TO LAUNCH A COUNTERATTACK AT THE TOP OF THE FALLS!" A fish-like subordinate gasps, "I NEVER THOUGHT FISH COULD CLIMB A WATERFALL! IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE, PERORIN!" while distant cries echo, "WOOA ARRGGHHH!"

A colossal pteranodon silhouette erupts from the mist with a thunderous "K KING" label. "DRAGON-DRAGON FRUIT ANCIENT TYPE MODEL PTERANODON" reads the caption as the beast shrieks "UWA AAGG GHH!" King glares down, "HMPH! JUST ONE SHIPI HAH!" Below, Big Mom's crew panics. "HMI" "!I" "SCREECH!" they react as the flying form dives. "THAT'S- A PTERANODONI!" Perospero cries. The creature slams into the ship, sending pirates flying amid massive impact lines and debris. "LORD KING KICKED THEM OFF!" the crew shouts in terror. "DON'T TELL ME- KINGI!" someone yells as the vessel tilts violently. "HUHI!" echoes across the chaotic deck.

ELSEWHERE FLOWER CAPITAL reads the caption over a distant view of the ornate city. In the streets a cloaked figure warns, "NO MATTER THE PRETEXT, IF ANY OF YOU ARE FOUND, THEY'LL TURN THE WHOLE ISLAND UPSIDE DOWN LOOKING FOR EVERYONE ELSE! THAT'S BAD! NAMI AND ROBIN WILL BE IN DANGER!" Another replies, "BUT THE SOBA SHOPOWNER'S THE ONE THEY'RE AFTER! YOU KNOCKED ONE OUT, DIDN'T YAI WHY DO WE HAVE TO RUN TOOI!" Wheezing figures flee past a samurai as "WHEEZE WHEEZE HAA-HAA-" sound effects trail them. In close-up a helmeted man with a frog-like companion snaps, "YOU'RE INSANE! LUFFY WOULD NEVER SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" while Law, face shadowed under his spotted hat, declares, "I'M A BIT DRIFTER. EVERYONE! IF THEY CATCH YOU, DON'T YOU DARE SAY A WORD ABOUT THE SAMURAI OR THE MINKS! DIE WITHOUT DIVULGING A SINGLE SECRET!"

Law continues heatedly, "YOU'RE OFFICIALLY THE WORST CAPTAIN EVER! IF THEY CATCH ME, I'M GOING TO SPILL THE BEANS MYSELF! A SINGLE WOUND COULD REDUCE OUR STRENGTH AT THE FINAL BATTLE! DON'T FIGHT NOW! IF YOU'RE 100% SURE YOU CAN WIN!" Usopp panics, "WHAT ABOUT HIDING OUR FACES AND THEN FIGHTINGI" A woman's scream "KYAAAAAH! A LADYI!" rings out as Nami appears shocked. "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU TWOI!" Usopp yells while a figure retorts, "YAY! ARE YOU SERIOUSI! FINE, I'LL JUST PROTECT YOU!" Suddenly an explosion rocks the Flower Capital. "WHAT'S GOING ONI!" Nami cries. "HUHI! A HOUSEI!" the group shouts as a building erupts in smoke and debris with the giant sound effect "ドゴォ".

In the streets of Ebisu Town, a massive scaly beast rampages through the soba stalls, smashing buildings and sending debris flying. Townspeople scream in panic. "WE'VE GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS!" one man yells while another shouts "STOP IT!" The creature looms over terrified vendors. "OUR SHOP... WE'LL BE KICKED OUT OF THE CAPITAL!" cries one. "YES, WE SELL SOBA, BUT... YER A SOBA STALL!" another retorts in terror. The beast snarls and demands, "CALL OUT FOR THE IDIOT THAT RAISED HIS HAND AGAINST THE KYOSHIRO FAMILY! OR SCREAM OUT 'SANGORO' AS LOUDLY AS YOU CAN! TELL US WHERE THE OTHER SOBA STALLS ARE!" A desperate voice yells "SANGORO! GET OUT HERE, DAMN IT!"

The chaos continues as voices ring out: "COME OUT, SANGORO! TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE! SANGORO! GET OUT HERE!" A figure in a black outfit appears, prompting "OI! WAIT! SANJI!!" From above, someone mocks, "AHH... LET'S GO EAT SOME FRUITS NEXT. HIHIHI! THAT COWARD'S GOING TO NEVER SHOW HIS FACE." The beast rampages further while bystanders plead, "STOP, PLEASE! WE'VE GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS EITHER! THEN BRING HIM OUT! SANGORO THE SOBA SELLER!" Suddenly a powerful voice declares, "I'M RIGHT HERE!" as a dramatic impact shakes the street.

The crowd reacts in shock: "SPECIAL SOBA SANGORO! IT'S HIM! HE REALLY SHOWED UP!" The dinosaur-like creature, Page One, snarls and confirms, "TARGET CONFIRMED, 6TH STREET, 2ND DISTRICT!" A tall figure in striped clothing stands before the beast and says, "ROGER. ON MY WAY. A DINOSAUR FRUIT USER, EHI" Page One replies, "HIHIHI! SO HERE YOU ARE. DON'T WASTE MY TIME." Elsewhere, "ONCE DRAKE AND HAWKINS GET HERE, IT'S CURTAINS!" someone warns. Sangoro retorts, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, SANGOROI! DON'T FIGHT HIM!" and another voice shouts, "DAMN YOU! WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONGI! I'M FINISHED!"

Sangoro stands ready, declaring, "I CAN DEAL WITH AN IDIOT LIKE THIS BEFORE YOU KNOW IT! INCREASING OUR STRENGTH IS A GOOD IDEA." Allies urge, "GO ON AHEAD, GUYS!" while one notes, "BUT REDUCING THEIR NUMBERS AIN'T BAD EITHER!" Page One growls nearby. Sangoro, now clearly Sanji, holds up a black canister and reflects, "THE POWER OF THE SCIENCE HE ONCE HATED SO MUCH! WHO I REALLY AM. IT'S FINE AS LONG AS THEY DON'T FIND OUT, RIGHTI" The page ends with the chapter title and "HIATUS NEXT WEEK."
