The chapter title page displays the One Piece logo above the text 'Chapter 940: The Spark of Rebellion'. A wild-haired man with a fierce grin and raised middle fingers dominates the center, surrounded by large Japanese characters. Below him, a circular display holds candy figures of the Straw Hat crew at a summer festival stall, including Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, Robin, Franky, and Brook. Lanterns labeled with 'あめ細工' hang on both sides. A caption at the bottom reads: 'FRONTISPIECE REQUEST: "BARTOLOMEO MAKING VERY HIGH-QUALITY CANDY ART OF THE STRAW HAT CREW AT A SUMMER FESTIVAL STALL BUT THEN REFUSING TO SELL IT TO ANYONE." P.N. I LOVE ROMEO'. The signature 'EIICHIRO ODA' appears at the very bottom.

A colored splash page shows Monkey D. Luffy in a straw hat and blue vest leaping forward on a tiger-striped creature while pointing ahead with a stick. Beside him stands a woman with dark hair in a pink fur-trimmed jacket, waving with a slight smile. In the background, a bright waterfall cascades through a lush jungle as several figures tumble through the air. Large text reads 'ONE PIECE CREATED BY EIICHIRO ODA AND PRESENTED BY mangastream.com'. Credits list: 'CLEANED BY PROSTYLE, 2B', 'REDRAWS BY SENGOKU', 'TYPESETTING BY DYLAN, ZERO, RTS0', 'TRANSLATED BY VOXANIMUS', 'PROVIDED BY FRIEDRICH'. A notice box states the chapter should be read at the source and encourages buying official volumes.

Trafalgar Law stands with a serious expression, sword over his shoulder, declaring, 'THERE'S NO WAY I CAN HAVE SOMEONE I DON'T TRUST WATCHING MY BACK ON THE LINE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH!' and 'DON'T FORGET THAT YOU DOUBTED MY FRIENDS TODAY.' In the middle of a crisis. Below, a woman with curly hair says, 'I MEAN, I UNDERSTAND WHERE SHE'S COMING FROM, THOUGH. THEY REALLY HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY FOR 20 YEARS.' A headband-wearing man shouts, 'WHY'D SHINOBU HAVE TO SAY ALL THAT STUFFI! AAARRGHH! TRAFFY GOT ALL PISSED AND STORMED OUT. I HOPE HE COMES BACK.' In a ruined town street, voices continue: 'YEAH, WELL... YOU'D TALK TOO.' 'AND SO WOULD YOU!' 'I WOULDN'T BLAME 'EM.' 'EVEN IF BEPO AND THE OTHERS LEAKED OUR PLANS,' while one figure wonders, 'HMM... TORTUREI I'D LAST MAYBE THREE SECONDS.' Someone yells, 'THAT'S ITI!'

In Ebisu Town, townspeople react to a newcomer. One says, 'HE WAS JUST KICKED OUT OF THE CAPITAL YESTERDAY. HE'S ORIGINALLY FROM THERE, APPARENTLY. THAT'S A NEWCOMER.' Another snaps, 'QUIT IT. THERE YOU ARE! YOU'RE THE CRAZY SPIRIT LADY.' A long-nosed man shouts, 'I WON'T HELP LOWLIFES LIKE YOU LOT! GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!' while reacting to 'HUHI AN ANGRY VOICE IN EBISU TOWNI' Laughter erupts: 'WAHAHA HAHA!' 'KYAHA HAHA!' 'KICKED OUT OF THE CAPITALI!' 'WHAT'RE YOU LAUGHING ATI!' A wild-haired man rants, 'HE WAS PAYING OFF OFFICIALS, SO HE NEVER WAS CAUGHT OR PUNISHED. AN ARSONISTI! WHY WAS HE PAYING OFF OFFICIALSI!' Another explains, 'NIGHT AFTER NIGHT, THE UNDERLING, BUNGO, WOULD SET FIRE TO BUILDINGS AROUND TOWN.' A grinning figure adds, 'ONLY PEOPLE FIERCELY LOYAL TO THE SHOGUN AND THAT CAN BASICALLY PULL MONEY OUT OF THEIR REAR END ARE ALLOWED TO LIVE IN THE FLOWER CAPITAL. BUT THOSE GUYS WERE UP TO SOME PRETTY BAD BUSINESS!'

An elderly horned man growls with rage, "THAT LOST LOVED ONES IN THE FIRES AND CHARGE THEM EXORBITANT PRICES. AND BINGO THE MONK AND MORTICIAN WOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF GRIEVING FAMILIES." Another horned figure snarls, "BONGO RAN A LUMBER STORE THAT SOLD WOOD BEAMS USED IN HOUSE REPAIR. SO HIS FRIENDS COULD MAKE MONEY OFF THE FIRES." The narration continues about three men who seemed good on the surface but were rotten, bribing officials in cahoots with Bongo and Bungo. A beautiful woman named Komurasaki appears in flashbacks as townspeople react with hearts and shock. A young woman with pigtails exclaims, "I BET THAT COURTESAN KNEW ALL ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE DOING! AMAZING! WHO IS SHEI!" An old man laughs wildly, "THAT'S A PRETTY SPECIFIC RUMOR! IT'S ALL TRUE, ISN'T ITI! OR SO THE RUMOR GOES. I GUESS SOMEONE REALLY IS WATCHIN' UP THERE! SO MUCH SO THAT THEY BANKRUPTED THEMSELVES PATRONIZING HER."

A man with a long nose and headgear shouts, "I KNEW I'D SEEN THEM BEFORE! THOSE GUYS WERE GOING WILD DURING THE COURTESAN'S PROCESSION! THAT'S WHY!" Others discuss Tonoyasu helping people despite being bad to the bone, and the three men staying in the house Yasu lives in. Inside a room, a woman in a spotted hood says, "YOU'RE PLAN'S FALLEN APART. THE ENEMY'S AWARE OF IT NOW. I SYMPATHIZE. WE LEARNED ABOUT THE DAY OF THE FINAL BATTLE, WHETHER OR NOT THAT WAS INTENDED. IT'S TRUE, THANKS TO THIS LITTLE CARD." A small girl replies, "MM... YOU'RE RIGHT." The spotted-hood woman continues, "BUT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT THIS REVERSE CRESCENT MOON ON THE ANKLE THING. THAT'S THE KIND OF ALLIES YOU HAVE. AT THE MOMENT, YOU COULD JUST SAY 'TEEHEE, IT WAS ALL A LIE!' BUT YOUR ALLIES MIGHT BELIEVE THAT TOO."

The group continues planning as one says, "THINGS ARE GOING TO GET BUSY NOW! AFTER ALL, MOST OF US MIGHT NOT MAKE IT THROUGH THE WEEK RIGHT BEFORE THE FINAL BATTLE WITHOUT DROPPING DEAD! AHAHA! WE'LL FIGHT ALONGSIDE Y'ALL! BE SURE TO TELL KIN'EMON AND THE OTHERS, TOO!" Outside, the spotted-hood woman laughs wildly while declaring, "AND THE TOWN GIRL! I'M ON MY WAY OUT! A HANDSOME MAN, A BEAUTIFUL LADY, YO YO! AND NOW I'M OFF!" Others react with hearts and excitement. Inside again, a woman with a bun states, "YES. HE CERTAINLY IS A VERY CHEERY MAN, THAT TONOYASU. WHO IS HEI" The spotted-hood woman replies, "SAME HERE. EVEN AFTER LISTENING TO WHAT THAT OLD MAN SAID, I STILL DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW HE'S RELATED TO YOU ALL." A voice answers, "SO..."

A white-haired man clutches his head yelling, "WHAAAAI! WE DON'T KNOW EITHER." The pigtail girl sweats and says, "I DON'T REALLY... THING I IS..." The woman with the bun explains, "I SUPPOSE BECAUSE HE'S EASYGOING... AND BECAUSE HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN SOME IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE PAST, ASKING WOULD BE RUDE, SO... AND HE WAS ADDRESSING US SO CASUALLY, ER, WELL, BECAUSE IT WAS SO ONE-SIDED, EVEN THOUGH YOU DIDN'T KNOW, YOU JUST LET HIM TALK ON AND ON LIKE THATI!" The white-haired man roars, "HOW COULD ANYONE FORGET A GUY LIKE THATI!" Outside on the street, a voice calls, "OH, TONOYASU. GRAMPS, GRAMPS, HOW'S YOUR NAUSEAI" Townspeople react in shock as someone screams, "NNNGGHHH! WHO IS HEI! WHA AAAI!"

A large close-up shows a grinning man in a spotted outfit laughing heartily. He says, "LOOK, I'LL LEAVE SOME MILLET AND WATER HERE, TRY TO EAT, ALRIGHTI" and "LYING IN BED SURE SUCKS! SUCKS MORE THAN WORKING, I'LL TELL YA!" In the town of Ebisu, the same man, Yasu, interacts with elderly residents. An old woman asks, "OI, SEAWEED GRANNY! DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH MEDICINEI" Yasu replies, "YOYO! WHY, YOU'RE QUITE THE SILVER-TONGUED HEARTSTEALER!" and "YASHI, I DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT, SO... YOU SHOULD GO AHEAD AND EAT WHATEVER YOU BROUGHT." The woman laughs, "AHAHAHAHA... YOU REALLY ARE SUCH A GOOD PERSON." Yasu offers, "I'LL GIVE YA TWO EXTRA GRAINS OF MILLET FOR THAT!" Children and townsfolk gather around Yasu, calling out, "HERE YA GO. IT'S NOT MUCH, BUT YOU SHOULD EAT UP," "HANKO! HOW'S MOM'S SICKNESSI" "O-SAKI! HOW'S THE BABYI" "OH! YASU!" and "MR. RETIREE! HOW'S THE KNEEI" Yasu responds cheerfully, "YASU! LET'S PLAY!" as the scene shows the lively, impoverished streets.

Townspeople discuss Yasu in flashbacks. One says, "INTO THE CAPITAL, SHE WORKS THERE NOW. HE HAD TO SELL HIS ONLY DAUGHTER, TOKO." Another notes, "HE DOESN'T. LABOR WAGES ARE BASICALLY ZIP." A man adds, "I DIDN'T THINK HE'D BE GOING AROUND GIVING EVERYONE FOOD." and "LOOKS LIKE TONOYASU'S GOT SOME EXTRA CASH." The narration continues, "HE FEELS BAD KEEPING IT ALL TO HIMSELF. HE SPREADS IT AROUND TO PEOPLE THAT CAN'T WORK. THAT'S HOW HE SPENDS HIS DAYS." A woman explains, "BECAUSE OF ALL THE TROUBLE TOKO GOES THROUGH TO SEND IT TO HIM, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT HE GETS TO EAT." A small girl smiles while handing out food. Yasu laughs wildly in the present, declaring, "HE'S THEIR BUDDHA." A child remarks, "HIS FACE AND BODY DON'T LOOK THE PART, BUT THAT MAN'S BEEN LOVED BY EVERYONE HERE FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER."

At the Udon Prisoner's Mine, chaos erupts as prisoners and guards clash. Voices shout, "GET HIM, MADILLO-MAN!" "CRUSH 'IM!" and "OLD MAN HYO'S GOT SPUNK!" A translator note reads, "T/N: KANJI READ: FLOWING CHERRY BLOSSOMS." Luffy, in his prisoner's uniform, clashes with a massive opponent. Narration explains, "THE WORD SIGNIFIES THAT IT 'FLOWS.' IS CALLED RYIO IN WANO. THE THING YOU ALL SEEM TO CALL HAKI." Luffy's strikes land powerfully with "STRONG" effects. The opponent reels back as Luffy thinks, "THE HAKI FLOWS THROUGH ME..."

Luffy continues his fierce battle. A voice advises, "DON'T FORCE IT! ALLOW THE PARTS OF THE HAKI IN YOUR BODY TO FLOW INTO YOUR FIST WHERE IT IS NOT NEEDED!" Luffy yells, "DAMN IT! NO!" Multiple fighters shout "NO!" as impacts and clashes fill the panels with sound effects. Luffy is struck and reacts in pain. A guard warns, "OI, OI! YOU'RE BEATING TOO MANY OF 'EM, YOU IDIOT!" while Luffy roars, "NOOOO OOO!" The fight rages on with explosions, weapons, and Haki-infused attacks throughout the mine.

In the ruined prison yard, hungry captives complain from their cells. "I'M SO HUNGRY... I HOPE THEY FEED US SOON!" one shouts. Another groans, "OR I'LL BE A MUMMY BY TOMORROW!" A voice from the side snaps, "DAMN IT! SO THIS IS GOING TO CONTINUE TOMORROWI!" and another urges, "LET US KEEP GOING!" while a final one yells, "BED-TIME! GO TO SLEEP!!" A massive growl echoes from the central arena where two tiny figures fight inside a chained ring. Below, a swordsman guard eyes the prisoners warily. Luffy, arms crossed, asks a cloaked figure, "WHY DO YOU WISH TO FIGHT KAIDOI" The figure replies, "I HEARD YOU ALREADY LOST ONCE IN KURI." The cloaked one then asks, "CAN I ASK YOU SOMETHING, STRAW HATI" Luffy answers, "HMI" The guard mutters, "HMM... WITH THESE GUARDS AROUND, I CAN'T REALLY TALK ABOUT THE OTHERS." In the next moment Luffy strikes the cloaked man, sending him flying with a loud impact as he declares, "GOOD. THAT SHOULD DO IT."

Luffy stands with arms crossed while a bald man in a headband asks from behind, "PIRATE KINGI LIKE ROGERI" Luffy answers firmly, "I'M THE GUY THAT'S GONNA BE PIRATE KING, SO I'VE GOTTA BEAT 'EM ALL!" A voice inquires, "D'YA KNOW WHO THE YONKO AREI" Luffy replies, "NOT REALLY." The speaker explains, "THEY'RE THE FOUR BIG-TIME PIRATES KNOWN AS THE EMPERORS OF THE SEA. KAIDO'S ONE OF 'EM." The bald man slurps and realizes, "AH... KIN'EMON MENTIONED THAT, NOW THAT I THINK OF IT." The cloaked figure reacts in shock, "KIN'EMONI! HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT NAMEI!" Elsewhere, the cloaked man recognizes someone and cries, "RAIZOI!" A monstrous figure with wild hair and a single eye bursts forward, roaring "GRRRRR" and laughing "KEHI HIHIHI HIHI!" while shouting, "ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN, HYOGORO!" The cloaked man stammers in terror, "R-RAIZOI!" as the monster looms over him.

Hyogoro's massive face fills the panel as he stares with intense eyes, saying, "THAT YOU WERE HYOGORO HIMSELF... I ALSO WOULD NEVER HAVE BELIEVED." The prisoners react with disbelief. One shouts, "COME NOW, DON'T SAY SUCH A THING, STRAW HAT!" Another exclaims, "I DON'T BELIEVE YOU, CARIBOU!" Caribou laughs "KEHI HIHI!" while others cry, "INDEED! THANKS TO LADY TOKI'S MAGICAL POWERS..." and "SO ARE YOU SAYING THAT ALL OF YOU CAME FROM TWENTY YEARS AGOI! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!" Raizo pleads, "C'MON, RAIZO! I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE KEY TO MY HANDCUFFS, BUT IT TURNS OUT IT'S FOR HIS!" Luffy stares in surprise. Caribou grovels before Luffy, begging, "OH, SO YOU CAN'T GET HOMEI DON'T HATE ME SO! I PROMISE YOU, I CAN HELP YOU! I'M YOUR SUBORDINATE NOW! IN EXCHANGE, TAKE ME WITH YOU ON YOUR SHIP!" He continues desperately, "I'M SO SORRY FOR WHAT I DID IN THE PAST! I'VE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART!"

Luffy considers the situation while Hyogoro watches from the ground. Someone notes, "HMI HYOGOROI" Another remarks, "HE COULD BE OF USE TO US!" Luffy decides, "MM, LUFFYTARO, THIS MAN USES QUITE INTERESTING MAGIC." Caribou panics, "WHA-I! TH-THANK YOU!" Luffy accepts, "ALRIGHT, SURE! IF YOU'VE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART, THEN YOU'RE GOOD NOW." Hyogoro's face fills with emotion as he realizes, "THE RED SHEATHS ARE ALIVE! ODEN'S SON, MOMONOSUKE IS ALIVE! THE FIRES OF REBELLION... STILL BLAZE ON!" He continues, "I DON'T BELIEVE IT... I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE A DOG'S DEATH HERE... I'D ACCEPTED IT! AND IF THINGS HAD HAPPENED JUST A MOMENT LATER, I REALLY WOULD HAVE DIED. IN THE DARK." Kin'emon urges, "THIS MAN WAS ONCE THE GRAND BOSS OF ALL THE YAKUZA IN WANO! YOU COULDN'T ASK FOR A BETTER ALLY THAN HIM, LUFFY!" Hyogoro pleads, "STILL HAS A THING OR TWO HE NEEDS TO SEE DONE! PLEASE, ALLOW ME TO JOIN YOU TOO!" Luffy reacts with shock as the old man declares, "RAIZO, STRAW HAT... NOW THAT IT'S COME TO THIS, THIS OLD MAN STILL HAS A THING OR TWO HE NEEDS TO SEE DONE!"

In the Udon prison mine, a large-headed prisoner with wild hair and a flame-like topknot speaks to Luffy while pointing at a map labeled "CURRENT LOCATION." He explains, "BY THE WAY...IT SEEMS YOU ALL ARE SEARCHING FOR ALLIES IN THE FLOWER CAPITAL AT THE MOMENT. BUT I BELIEVE THE FACT THAT YOU CAME HERE, TO UDON, MUST HAVE ALSO BEEN FATE!" He continues, "HAS FOUR OTHER PLACES THIS MINE... THAT ARE THE SAME SIZE AS THIS ONE!" Luffy reacts with wide eyes and shock as the man adds, "WAS REBELLION AGAINST OROCHI! THE CRIME OF THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE PRISONERS HERE. BUT NOT ALL OF THEM WERE ARRESTED FOR STEALING OR ASSAULT. THERE ARE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PRISONERS HERE IN UDON." The prisoner declares, "THE YAKUZA BOSSES THAT UPHELD THIS COUNTRY FROM THE SHADOWS... THEY'RE HERE TOO! THE ANGER OF THE ENTIRE COUNTRY FESTERS HERE! I SHALL SPEAK TO THEM! THEY WILL GLADLY FIGHT FOR THE KOZUKI NAME!" Luffy realizes, "I SEE! WE TOTALLY OVERLOOKED THAT!"

The large-headed prisoner continues planning, "FIRST THING! I WILL RELEASE HIM. I HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN WITH KAWAMATSU. I KNOW. ONE LAST THING, RAIZO! THAT CELL..." Luffy shouts excitedly, "EVERYONE'LL BECOME OUR ALLIES! I SEE! SO AFTER WE DESTROY THIS PLACE," while being hushed, "LUFFY! DO NOT SPEAK SO LOUDLY! AND I DO NOT EXPECT IT TO BE SO EASY..." The scene shifts to a snowy wasteland labeled "UDON, WASTELANDS" where a group travels on a sled pulled by a creature. A voice notes, "IT SEEMS THIS CROCOSHARK IS RATHER TIRED TOO, BUT... WE'VE ALREADY REACHED UDON!" Another complains, "HOW MUCH LONGER TILL THE OSHIRUKO, O-KIKUI I'M SLEEPY AND HUNGRY AND SLEEPY AND HUNGRY." A small figure asks, "ARE YOU SURE THAT IS A GOOD THINGI!" Luffy peeks out smiling as the narration box states the chapter end: "THUNDERCLOUDS GATHER! NEXT WEEK, A COLOR COVER!"
