The One Piece title logo dominates the top of the page with the chapter heading below it: CHAPTER 975: "KIN'EMON'S PLAN". In the main illustration, a bearded man in a dark vest and hat sits on stone steps outside a brick building while a woman with long flowing hair leans in close to him, her dress billowing. A large speech bubble near the man reads "!I". At the bottom of the panel, text reads: "GANG BEGE'S OH MY FAMILY: VOL.23: 'I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, BUT THANKS FOR SAVING ME.'" The author credit "EIICHIRO ODA" appears beneath the scene.

Explosions rock the area as a massive cyborg-like figure with cannons yells, "THIS SHIP IS MADE FROM 'ADAM WOOD', IT'S THE SHIP THAT WILL SAIL A THOUSAND SEAS!!" and "REALLY, WHAT KIND OF IDIOTS WERE THOSE... TO THINK THEY'D SINK THE SUNNY WITH THOSE PUNY BOMBS! SO NAIVE!!!" Nearby, another character shouts, "IT TOOK US A WHILE TO FIX UP THE SAILS!! SORRY ABOUT THAT KIN'EMON!!" Luffy appears in the foreground, fist raised, declaring, "KIN-!! THE SITUATION IS A BIT DIFFERENT TO WHAT I HAD HEARD, BUT I CAN DESTROY THAT BATTLESHIP FOR NOW, RIGHT!I" A frantic voice cries, "SO THE PLAN FAILED!! KIN'EMON, EVERYONE, WE'RE HERE!!" while another adds, "ALL THOSE ALLIES WE GATHERED DON'T SEEM TO BE HERE!!" A large sound effect "どんっ!!" punctuates the chaos.

A blond man in a dark coat states, "THERE SHOULD BE 200 YAKUZA FROM ALL OVER WANO!!" while a small armored figure notes, "NOT HERE, IT SEEMS." Another voice asks, "WHERE ARE THE 3500 MEN FROM THE PRISONER MINESI" In the next panel, a masked figure with curly hair says, "WE FIXED UP DOZENS OF SHIPS WITH THOSE GUYS, I THOUGHT THEY WERE COMING HERE!!" while others report, "THERE WERE 200 MEN FROM INUHARASHI'S FIRING SQUAD AT PORT ITACHI!! AND ANOTHER 280 FROM THE ATAMAYAMA THIEVES." A woman with a flower in her hair exclaims, "WAS THERE SOME KIND OF TROUBLE!I" as a skull-faced figure and a blond man discuss, "AND ALL THOSE WEAPONS WE WERE BRINGING FROM RINGO... TO SUPPLY EVERYONE...!!"

A spiky-haired figure grins while narration reveals, "OUR PLAN HAS COMPLETELY LEAKED TO THE ENEMY....!!" Luffy reacts with shock, "!I WHAAAA AAA---!!I" and a voice pleads, "FORGIVE ME." On the damaged ship deck, characters shout, "WE DON'T KNOW THE DETAILS EITHER!!" "NO WAY...!!" "WE DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO EVERYONE ELSE EITHER!!" A large bird-like creature declares, "WE EVEN DESTROYED THE GREAT BRIDGES... THAT CONNECTS TO THE COUNTRYSIDE UNDER MASTER OROCHI'S ORDERS!!" while another figure adds, "EVEN THOUGH WE FAILED TO DESTROY THAT LION SHIP... WE SUNK ALL THE SHIPS THAT WERE DOCKED AT PORT ITACHI LAST NIGHT!!" A large sound effect "ゴロオオ" rumbles across the scene.

Stormy seas batter Onigashima's shores as massive waves crash against the rocky coast. A scarred Beast Pirate subordinate snarls with fury, "WITHOUT ANY SHIPS THEY HAVE NO WAY OF LANDING ON ONIGASHIMA!!! IF THEY MISS THIS CHANCE TODAY, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ONE!!" Nearby voices add, "EVEN IF ONE OF THEM UNEXPECTEDLY FOUND THEIR WAY HERE... THAT'S WHY NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS SHOWING UP!!" Queen, the feathered, masked Beast Pirate commander, grins widely beside a tall woman in a revealing outfit, declaring, "ALSO I'D HATE TO RUB SALT IN THE WOUND, BUT TODAY'S BANQUET WILL CELEBRATE... THE OFFICIAL ALLIANCE BETWEEN THE BEAST PIRATES AND THE BIG MOM PIRATES!! ALL YOU REBELS WILL BE... SLOWLY AND PAINFULLY MASSACRED STARTING TOMORROW!!" In the lower panels, shocked rebels and samurai react in horror: "AN ALLIANCE BETWEEN EMPERORS!I BIG MOM AND KAIDO!!!I BIG MOM...!!I"

Beast Pirate ships loom through the raging storm. A voice commands, "IN THE NAME OF EMPEROR KAIDO... GET THIS OVER WITH AND SINK THEM!!!" Another taunts, "SO WHAT IF THESE THREE PUNY PIRATE SHIPS CAME TO SAVE THE SAMURAI!I WE'VE ALREADY CAUGHT ALL THESE SMALL FRY BEFORE IN WANO COUNTRY!!" On deck, a spotted-hat fighter yells, "DON'T GET IN MY WAY!!!" while another retorts, "IDIOT, YOU'RE THE ONE THAT SHOULD STAND BACK! WHY ARE THESE UNDERLINGS GETTING SO COCKY!! THEY'RE LOOKING DOWN ON US, STAND BACK!!! CANNONS AT THE READY!!!" Below, chaos erupts as crew members shout, "WHOA THEY GOT ON DECK!!! LEFT-OVERS!I YOU TWO SLOWPOKES CAN GET THE LEFTOVERS. AND YOU'RE SAYING I CAN'TI HEY, DON'T FOLLOW ME, I CAN FINISH THEM OFF IN ONE HIT!!!"

A massive mechanical arm labeled "PUNK ROTTEN!!!" (TL: MAGNETIC DEMON) smashes forward with explosive force. Trafalgar Law appears in close-up, eyes fierce, as he activates his power: "BOUND-MAN!!!" In the next sequence, Law's hand stretches dramatically while he shouts, "ROOM!!!" The panels show rapid ability activation amid flying debris and intense motion lines, with Law's determined expression and the glowing technique effects dominating the page.

Panic spreads among the Beast Pirates as they raise their hands in surrender. Voices cry, "DON'T BE SCARED, THESE GUYS AREN'T ANYTHING TO BE-...!!! WAIT!! THEY LOOK REALLY PISSED. W-W-WAIT JUST A SECOND." A massive explosion erupts on the sea, sending ships flying amid huge waves and smoke: "GYAAAAA AAAAAHHH!!!!" Below, more fighters open fire, yelling, "SHOOT THEM TO DEATH-!!! THOSE CAPTAINS ARE BAD NEWS!! DO SOMETHING ABOUT THEM!!" The final panels show continued cannon fire and chaos on the turbulent waters.

The Kyoshiro Family ship arrives amid the chaos, its black flag with the "狂" crest flying high. Crew members shout in relief, "BOSS KYOSHIRO IS HERE!! WE'RE SAVED!!" and "IT'S THE SHIP OF THE KYOSHIRO FAMILY!!!" Kyoshiro's men confront the enemies, with one yelling, "YOU GUYS LOOK LIKE YOU'RE IN A PINCH!!" Kyoshiro himself declares, "SO YOU WANT ME TO SINK THE ENEMIESI OKAY, LEAVE IT TO ME!!" and receives orders: "O-ORDERS FROM MASTER OROCHI!! IT SHOULD BE FINE IF YOU SINK THEM ALL!!" In a sudden twist, Kyoshiro turns his cannons on his own allies. A shocked subordinate screams, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING BOSS!!!" as the ship erupts in flames and smoke. Victims cry out, "GYAAAA AAAHHH HHHH!!!" while a blade flashes with "CHING!" in the foreground.

Kyoshiro stands calmly as his ship looms. He explains, "SORRY, I DIDN'T MEAN TO SINK YOUR SHIP, I ONLY DISABLED THE CANNONS THAT WERE AIMED AT US." An observer notes, "THAT'S THE SUCCESSOR TO BOSS HYOGORO, THE CURRENT BOSS OF THE CAPITAL'S UNDERWORLD...!!!" Kyoshiro continues, "WE AREN'T THE ENEMY, WHY WOULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!" He then reveals himself in close-up panels: "HE IS A VERY COMPETENT SWORDSMAN!!!" "PEOPLE CALL ME 'NAPPING KYOSHIRO'!!!" "I AM A YAKUZA OF THE FLOWER CAPITAL," and finally, "NOBLE SAMURAI OF THE RED SCABBARDS!!!" His subordinates react in shock: "WHAT KIND OF LOGIC IS THAT!!!" "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS, BOSS!I" Kyoshiro bows deeply and declares, "HUMBLY ASK TO JOIN YOUR ARMY!!! OUR 200 MEN FROM THE KYOSHIRO FAMILY," as the battlefield erupts with impact sounds and confusion.

Kin'emon clutches his head, recalling, "KIN!! SOMETHING I OFTEN RECALL IS THE 'MOUNTAIN GOD INCIDENT' THAT OCCURRED IN THE CAPITAL 40 YEARS AGO." He accuses, "THAT INCIDENT WAS CAUSED BY YOU, WHO WAS YOUNG AND GREEDY BACK THEN!!" while a whip cracks "WHIP!" and "KACHIK!" sounds ring out. Denjiro replies, "I OWE AN IMMENSE DEBT OF GRATITUDE TO THE KOZUKI FAMILY!!" and questions, "BUT THAT WASN'T IT, RIGHT!I" as "KIN"I echoes. The scene shifts to chaos with Denjiro shouting, "DEN-JIRO!!!I" and others yelling, "ARE YOU....!!!" "WHA-!I" "WHAT THE...!I" A background figure states, "THIS IS BAD, IT'LL BE MY FAULT THAT THE CAPITAL WILL...!!!I" and notes, "THERE SHOULD ONLY BE ONE PERSON WHO KNOWS THE TRUTH OF THAT..."

Denjiro stands revealed in full samurai attire, sweat flying as he says, "IT WAS JUST AS I THOUGHT, IF I REVEALED MYSELF..." and "I WANTED TO REVEAL MYSELF TO YOU GUYS AS SOON AS I COULD, BUT I PREPARED FOR THE WORST CASE SCENARIO AND CONTINUED ON AS AN ENEMY!!!" Others react with "DENJIRO!I" and "NONE OTHER!!" He continues, "AS I THOUGHT, YOU DIDN'T RECOGNIZE ME..." and explains, "I KEPT OROCHI'S TRUST UNTIL THE VERY END, AND AS A RESULT.... AND OROCHI WOULD HAVE DISPOSED OF ME...!!!" In a dramatic wide panel, Denjiro pleads, "PLEASE ALLOW ME TO ADD THESE 1200 SOLDIERS TO YOUR ARMY!!!" while announcing, "THE 1000 SAMURAI TRAPPED IN THE 'RASETSU TOWN PRISON' HAVE BEEN FREED!!" Massive "バン!!" and "ドドドドド" sound effects shake the scene as ships rock on the waves and allies react in awe.

One of the Nine Red Scabbards exclaims in shock as the group realizes Boss Kyoshiro was the contact who sent the altered message to Onigashima. The day has finally come and they will also be joining the fight. Lord Yasuie altered the original code of Port Habu with two lines through the belly of the viper. These two lines carried the meaning of erasing the belly, in other words cutting out the middle. Kin'emon reacts with surprise as the plan is revealed. You purposefully told only your closest comrades the incorrect message of Port Tokage. The traitor then perfectly conveyed the message of Port Tokage on to Orochi. You sent out the message of only two lines to everyone. If one was to cut out the middle of Port Habu they would read the message as Hato and therefore... However you had guessed that Orochi has an informant within the core of your ranks so...

The enemies made their move last night but by that time it was already too late. Orochi misjudged the distance between the various cities of Wano. This was the result of the foolishness of a ruler who stayed in his capital for too long. A shocked reaction echoes What!! And all the ships we needed had set sail. The ships destroyed last night were ones we didn't need. All the troops had crossed the great bridges. So... are the 4200 troops that you gathered just as planned at the wharf of Port Habu. They've been waiting patiently for exactly this moment. Everyone is safe. Hidden within the beautiful view of the maple forest that Lord Yasuie loved...

If we join that army with our group of 1200 we have a total of 5400 men. Is proceeding as planned. The Raid on Onigashima begins with a massive splash of ships charging forward amid roaring waves and battle cries. 20 years have gone by but we have not forgotten Master Oden's legendary death. We have lived to this day believing in the revival of the Kozuki family. Everyone let's go quickly onto Onigashima. Let's go together samurai of the Red Scabbards. Fate is on their side. And not Tokage. So it was supposed to be read as Hato. Kin'emon confirms the plan worked. What is with those numbers. Wow what a view. Not sure what's going on but seems like everything's fine. Luffy stares in awe at the massive allied fleet.
