Cover page for Chapter 713, "Usoland." The cover story continues as "Caribou's Kehihihihi in the New World - Volume 31 - Running away from a superior adversary, Pirate Scotch!!" Caribou is shown fleeing from the cyborg-like pirate Scotch, whose huge body and weapons dominate the scene while Caribou scrambles away in panic. The page is not part of the chapter's main present-time action, but it is useful extra material because it continues the cover serial and identifies the chapter title.

On Green Bit, the hostage exchange collapses into open hostility. Caesar Clown, still trapped in Law's control, screams toward the approaching Donquixote Doflamingo: "Joker!! Hurry up! This bastard, take him d--" Law cuts the situation off with cold refusal, making it clear that he will not surrender Caesar anymore: "There's no way I'm handing this guy over...!!" He accuses Doflamingo directly, saying, "Because you haven't stuck to our agreement in the least!!" Law faces the former king and declares, "Doflamingo! You've brought these dealings back to square one!!" Caesar, terrified that his rescue is slipping away after coming this far, howls, "Gyahhh!! What are you saying, you ass!! After coming this far...!!" The page turns the meeting from negotiation into a standoff: Law has Caesar, Doflamingo has arrived, and the agreement has lost all meaning.

Doflamingo responds with amusement rather than surprise, laughing, "Fuffuffu!!! Is that any way to talk to your old boss after not writing for ten years!?" He demands Caesar back at once: "Hand him over!!! Caesar is my precious underling!!" Caesar weakly reaches for him with "...Jo..." while the Marines identify the prisoner: "Issho-san, the one with Law is Caesar Clown." Fujitora recognizes the name as the scientist from the poison gas incident, but the loophole around the Shichibukai system becomes the problem. If Caesar is serving under a Warlord, then he may be treated as protected, with a full pardon. Doflamingo then turns his attention to Fujitora himself, noting that he received a special appointment as admiral through the "world conscription." He says that Fujitora and Ryokugyu are spoken of as certified powerhouses of monstrous proportions. Fujitora answers modestly, "You honor me too greatly..." while the tension makes Doflamingo snap, "Hmmmph!! Don't play the fool, you bastard..."
Fujitora, still presenting himself as a newcomer to the Marines, says that he is having trouble understanding Doflamingo's actions. He admits, "We don't have all the evidence yet..." but adds that the information he has received suggests Doflamingo may have broken rules as a Shichibukai. Doflamingo does not shrink from the accusation. With another "Fuffu..." he warns the Marines that if they want to come after him, they had better be prepared with nothing less than a heap of evidence. Fujitora then focuses on a detail from the conversation: Law called Doflamingo "Joker." He asks whether that is some sort of nickname. Law redirects the matter toward his own status and asks if Fujitora has decided how to deal with him. Fujitora explains the logic: because the newspapers reported an alliance between Law and the Straw Hat crew, Law is "black" if the alliance is real, but "white" if the Straw Hats have merely become Law's underlings.

Fujitora finishes laying out the condition: depending on Law's answer, the Marines' mission may become the arrest of both Law and the Straw Hat crew. Law thinks the standard is strange, but understands the trap immediately: if he lies here, it is all over. Doflamingo recognizes that the gears have truly gone awry and realizes that he himself was the target all along. Law calculates that bringing the fight to Dressrosa would only worsen the situation, so he chooses the answer that preserves his own plan and buys time. He states plainly, "Strawhat and I are equals in this matter!! Just as the report said, it's an alliance!!" Doflamingo laughs at the foolishness of the move, but Law's choice is deliberate. He sacrifices the protection of his Warlord title in order to keep Doflamingo occupied and keep the larger operation moving.

The answer changes the battlefield instantly. The Marines prepare to evacuate and call across the ships: "All ships confirm!" and "We are ready to evacuate." Above Green Bit, the danger appears in the sky. A Marine shouts, "Meteorite sighted!!" followed by horror at its size: "What an enormous..." Panic spreads with "Run for it!!" Fujitora has drawn down a meteor, using his power not as a warning but as a direct test of the three dangerous men before him. Law refuses to let the situation end with escape, while Doflamingo and Fujitora stand ready inside the same impossible moment. The page is not a calm description of an attack; it is the instant before disaster, with a blind admiral casually turning the sky itself into a weapon and forcing Law and Doflamingo to react at once.
The meteor falls into range and the confrontation becomes a three-way display of power. Fujitora's gravity has brought the massive body down, but Law and Doflamingo do not simply run from it. Law opens his surgical space and Doflamingo's strings slice through the air, their attacks crossing the falling rock as the meteor tears toward Green Bit. Caesar is caught in the chaos, helpless beside powers far beyond his own control. The composition makes the scale clear: the meteor is vast enough to dwarf the fighters, yet the three men answer it without hesitation. This page is the impact point of Fujitora's test, showing why none of the people gathered here can be treated as ordinary combatants.
The meteor breaks apart under the combined responses of the fighters, but the destruction still crashes down over Green Bit. Stone, smoke, and force swallow the ground as the island surface is carved away. Law's power, Doflamingo's cutting strings, and Fujitora's gravity all meet in one violent exchange, and the page emphasizes the aftermath of their decisions rather than any single clean blow. The meteor does not simply vanish; its fall tears the landscape open, proving that Fujitora's casual move has created a disaster zone around them. Caesar survives only because he is trapped in the middle of monsters who are busy measuring one another.
When the smoke and shock settle, Caesar is left gasping, "Wheeze gasp...!!" Doflamingo is also breathing hard, laughing through the strain with "Haa... haa...!!" The Marines stare at the cratered battlefield in disbelief and ask, "What the?! What happened?" Another voice can barely process the speed of the exchange: "In that instant they did what?!" The ground has been almost completely destroyed. The result is not a normal battlefield with fighters standing apart, but a gouged-out ruin where only small islands of land remain. Fujitora's meteor, Law's response, and Doflamingo's counter have reshaped Green Bit in seconds, leaving everyone else to understand the damage after it has already happened.

The Marines finally grasp the result: "Those three... their footholds are all that's left!!!" Law, Doflamingo, and Fujitora each stand on a separate surviving piece of ground, surrounded by the devastation caused by the meteor and their counters. Fujitora calmly says, "You honor me... but truly... I was just testing my ability..." Law studies him and concludes, "...Looks like it really doesn't matter whether he's blind or not..." Doflamingo is less restrained. He insults the admiral's lack of discipline and snarls, "That fleet admiral didn't train you very well!! You're nothing but a wild dog!!" The scene establishes Fujitora as unpredictable even to Doflamingo: the admiral is powerful enough to make a casual test look like a natural disaster.
The scene shifts to Dressrosa at Franky's location. Franky speaks by Den Den Mushi and grumbles, "Where are you exactly, off dandling around, Sanji..." When he hears the destination, he blurts, "Flower Fields!? You going on a picnic or something!?" Sanji, distracted by Violet, answers with romantic absurdity, "I'm in love," and Franky can only respond, "Oh, well that's nice." Franky then reports the serious part: "Really!? By the way, it seems I've found the factory." But the factory cannot simply be smashed and abandoned. He says it is a much bigger job than they imagined. Around him, the city keeps moving: someone complains, "Hey, you can't just put that on a tab!" and another shouts, "Someone catch that toy!!" Franky has read the special edition and knows Doflamingo may get Caesar back, so he wants to strike back by destroying the factory.

Sanji tells Franky to come to the Flower Fields immediately, but Franky still cannot accept the name of the target: "Like I said, why the hell is our target such a fairytale sounding place!" Sanji is more worried that he cannot contact Nami on the Sunny. Franky asks whether Nami is all right, and Sanji refuses to treat her as helpless: she has Brook and Monster Chopper with her. Then Violet shows Sanji a broadcast from the colosseum. The screen displays a powerful masked fighter, and the announcer praises, "This mysterious gladiator!! This Lucy is a strong one!!" Sanji recognizes the truth at once and bursts out, "Luffy!!" He cannot hide his exasperation and admiration: "That little guy sure is something." The Straw Hats' separate threads collide through the broadcast, revealing that Luffy has wandered into another crisis.

Sanji warns Franky, "Franky, don't be alarmed, but Luffy is..." then admits the absurd truth: "Ah... he's participating in a fighting tournament." Franky erupts, "You let him do what!?" and Sanji fires back that Franky was supposed to keep an eye on him. Franky calls that rich, coming from Sanji. Violet interrupts because her pursuers are coming, but she still gives Sanji the key information: the secret factory is labeled "Toy House" on the front. Sanji hesitates because helping him will make her betrayal worse, yet Violet says it has surely already been reported to the higher-ups. She tells him the rendezvous is the western harbor and orders him to hide there until she arrives. Sanji vows, "You...!! I'll do everything I can to help you escape this place!!"

Before Sanji can leave cleanly, Kin'emon appears and shocks him into shouting, "Uoh!! Where the hell'd you come from!!?" Kin'emon apologizes for interrupting and says, "You appear to be in the middle of something, but excuse me!! You shame of a man!!" Sanji is still thinking of Violet, but Kin'emon has his own desperate request. Enemies close in with "There he is!!" and Sanji snaps that Kin'emon should take care of small fries like this himself. Kin'emon explains why he cannot simply strike: these men have Kanjuro as a hostage. He asks Sanji to come with him to the "Toy House," because Kanjuro has been captured there and Kin'emon does not know where it is. The factory, the toys, and the missing samurai all point toward the same place.

The story returns once again to Green Bit, beneath the forest, in the Tontatta Kingdom. The rumbling from above reaches even this hidden place, and Usopp panics, crying, "Awawawa, shit, I don't want to die here" and "Gyahh." Robin asks, "What's all this rumbling about!" The dwarves are startled to see their supposed hero frightened: "Eh!? The hero is flustered!!" Usopp immediately turns cowardice into performance. He claims, "Well... the thing is... that shaking just now was actually my Haki!!" The dwarves accept the lie with complete faith, connecting it to the legend they have heard: "Haki!? The technique with which you defeated 50,000 foes at Fishman Island!? That's our hero!!" Usopp's false identity as Usoland grows stronger with every lie.

The Tontatta Kingdom welcomes Usopp and Robin with food, treating Usopp as the great Usoland. The dwarves explain that the meat is "Fighting Fish," a relative of the giant goldfish, and it is so large that it will feed everyone in the kingdom for months. Usopp realizes with alarm that these tiny people really caught the fighting fish from earlier and wonders how insanely powerful they are. The meal is delicious, tasting like monster meat, and the dwarves urge him to eat his fill because he is a big human. Gancho even says that one member of their Usolanders squad, Luffyland, could eat it all in one bite. Then Robin notices a familiar statue and directs Usopp's attention to it, connecting it to the picture book they saw on Jaya.

Robin identifies the statue: "That statue... is it of Montblanc Noland!?" Gancho confirms it. He explains that Noland was a big human botanist who visited the country 400 years ago. At that time, the Tontatta ancestors were suffering because bad big humans were wrecking their island, and Noland appeared, fought those enemies, and led the dwarves to victory as the legendary hero of Tontatta. Leo proudly points to his chestnut-shaped head as proof of his lineage, insisting that this connection is real. Usopp has exploited the story by claiming descent from Noland, and the dwarves were moved when he guessed the name and explained his supposed bloodline. Robin quietly judges him: "You're really a bad person..." Usopp answers that she is welcome, since the lie saved her too and earned them food, souvenirs, and a way onward. Gancho calls it fate.

Gancho and the Tontatta declare that 400 years have passed and that on this very day they have sworn to bring their war with Doflamingo to an end. To them, another legendary hero has appeared at the fated moment. Usopp only manages a confused "Hmm?" before the dwarves explain the plan. As soon as he is done eating, they will take the underground passage and head for the Flower Fields. There, on the fated final battlefield of Dressrosa, the commander of the Riku Royal Fighters and his men are waiting. The Tontatta will crush Donquixote Doflamingo, and with Usoland backing them up, they believe they will be unbeatable. They beg Usopp to take the lead and guide them into battle. The page ends with the dwarves chanting "Usoland!!" while Usopp realizes that his lie has become a command position in an actual war.
