Orders

On the dome interior live floor, chaos erupts around the stage as Otama stands exposed in the middle of a battlefield. The caption says it is "time for Otama's counter attack!!" Queen, still in dinosaur form, glares down and asks, "What is a brat doing... in this warzone?" Another enemy shouts, "Where is Bao Huang?!" while the long-necked dinosaur head snarls, "Who the hell are you?!" Otama panics with "Kyaaa!!" but Usopp, down below after the previous blow, yells, "Otama!!" and "Keep it together, Tama!!" A body hits the floor with "Thud" as smoke and wreckage fill the hall. The page sets the stakes sharply: Otama has reached the microphone network that can control the Gifters, but she is now standing in plain view of Queen and the enemy army.

On the castle interior fourth floor, Jinbe faces Who's-Who amid cracked floors and fallen fighters. Who's-Who fires with a pistol and laughs "Kyahaha!!" then asks, "You're not going to start making excuses now, are you, Jinbe?" Jinbe, bleeding but calm, says nothing at first. Who's-Who explains that they went into this battle knowing it would be the enemy's 5,000 against their 30,000, so he never expected this to be a one-on-one duel. He says it is only natural that the enemy would exploit the chaos, and laughs that Jinbe has dug himself into a hole. Around them, Beast Pirates complain that the grunts keep coming and that it is their job to deal with officers like Jinbe. One says, "There is no end to these grunts!!" The page shows Jinbe surrounded not by one opponent, but by the numbers game Kaido's side expected to dominate.

The live floor turns into total war as Otama's power begins to pay off. Enemies shout, "We're at total war!!" while one of the Beast Pirates, panting, says, "You can't hold this against me...!!" Others realize the disaster spreading through their own ranks: "The pleasures and waiters on the live floor have betrayed us!! Those lousy ingrates!!" A fighter asks what they should do, and the answer comes back viciously: "What do you think?! We're gonna make an example out of them! Beat them till they can't walk!!" The order escalates to "Eliminate all the traitors!!" as former allies collide. Someone screams, "Gyaah!! It's the Gifters!!" while Gifter fighters smash into Beast Pirates with heavy blows. The page shows Otama's command cracking the enemy army from inside; the Gifters are no longer just defectors, but active counterattackers protecting the rebellion.

Nami encourages Otama from the stage, shouting, "Otama! You can do it," while Usopp yells in support nearby. Otama begins her broadcast, struggling to speak over the roaring battlefield: "Every... everyone who ate my kibi dango... please listen to me!!" Below, enemies point up at her and shout, "She's still making a racket up there!!" and "What is that brat's deal?! Knock her off the ledge!!" In a wide view of the live floor, the stage rises above smoke, rubble, Queen's long body, and fighters still clashing on every side. Otama cries out the names of those she is trying to help: "Big bro Luffy and his friends, Momonosuke-kun and his retainers..." Then she gives the decisive order through tears and resolve: "You're on their side now!!" Her voice carries over the battlefield through Bao Huang's stolen transmission network.

Otama's command lands across Onigashima. She trembles and pants as allies shout, "Stay with us, Straw Hat!! Don't die!!" and others cry over Kin'emon and Kiku, saying, "Waaah!! We were so high up!! Kin'emon!! Kiku!!" Otama pushes through the fear and calls, "Let's do it together!!" From the floating island itself, the broadcast echoes as Onigashima flies through the sky. She follows with the simple battle cry: "Let's take down Kaido!!" Gifters who ate the dango immediately accept it. One says, "All right!! We have our orders!!" while another Beast Pirate asks, "Wha--what's wrong? Briscola-san?!" A Gifter roars that the brat does not know her place and must be crushed, but Briscola turns against his former side. The page captures the instant obedience changes the battlefield: Otama's words turn scattered Gifters into a coordinated rebel force.

The converted Gifters attack at once. A Gifter smashes a Beast Pirate with a heavy "Pow" and declares, "Your wish is my command, master!!" More transformed fighters charge through the live floor while enemies scream, "What's with the Gifters?!" and "Why are they obeying that brat?!" One loyal Beast Pirate shouts, "Hey! What are you doing?!" as former allies turn on him. Daifugo takes command on the rebel side, shouting, "We're gonna take down Kaido!! Daifugo-sama?! Everyone follow me!!" The chaos spreads so fast that enemies can barely understand it. They yell, "They're fighting each other!!" and "What the devil?" while another Gifter attacks through the smoke. The page shows Otama's order functioning like a command chain: every dango-fed warrior now treats her wish as an order, and their sudden loyalty shatters the enemy formation.

The rebellion spreads floor by floor. Hamlet, the giraffe-bodied Gifter, rushes into battle while someone screams, "Waaah! Hamlet-sama has lost his mind!" and he answers, "Understood, master!!" A report from the fourth floor warns, "Poker-sama, the headliner, has turned on us!!" as Poker, another Gifter, fights beside Jinbe. Poker shouts, "I'll take care of these bums. Jinbe, Knight of the Sea!! You focus on Who's-Who!!" Jinbe's opponent snarls, "Poker, you bastard!!" Reports continue from elsewhere: "This is the second floor... We're here to back you samurai up!!" and "The Gifters have switched sides!! The Straw Hats have to win!!" On every level, the converted fighters begin protecting the alliance and clearing lesser enemies away from the main battles. Otama's order has not just shifted numbers; it has freed the officers and samurai to focus on the real threats.

Reports pile up across the Mary network as the castle descends into confusion. On one floor, someone says, "This is strange... what in the world is happening? Gifters are tearing through the third floor too!!" A Mary reports, "This is the right brain tower!! They're running wild!!" Another voice adds that the basement has also been compromised. From the live floor, the report becomes blunt: "What the hell is happening?! Onigashima has fallen into chaos!!" Enemies stare in disbelief as converted Gifters rampage through the smoke. Nami, Usopp, and Otama finally see the plan succeed. Usopp grins, "The plan went perfectly!!" and Nami tells Otama, "Nice work, Otama!" Otama, exhausted and relieved, leans in their arms with a sigh. In the lower corner, a Beast Pirate looks at the upheaval and asks, "Don't tell me... this is all because of that brat?!"

Back on the live floor, Sanji dives toward Queen and calls, "Collier..." Queen yells, "Get down!!" as Sanji's flaming kick slams into his long dinosaur neck with the finishing shout, "Strike!!" Queen cries "Guoh!!" under the impact while the huge head snaps aside. Sanji is still carrying the injured Zoro's burden from earlier, but his attention is fixed on Queen. Queen recognizes him with rage: "...Judge's son?! You bastard!" Sanji snaps back, "Quit saying that name!!" Queen then asks whether Sanji was also part of that insane research team, while Sanji bristles at the association. The page brings the Germa history into the battle: Queen is not only fighting Sanji as a Straw Hat, but as the son of Judge, someone tied to Queen's own past in scientific research.

Queen elaborates while shifting into his hybrid form. He says, "You mean MADS? That's ancient history." Then he boasts, "Now, check me out!! I'm a cyborg, so I've got a whole bunch of tricks up my sleeve!!" His huge brachiosaur body rears up with mechanical parts clanking, and fighters shout, "Obviously!!" while someone warns, "Aah!! This is bad!! It's Queen's hybrid form!! Get back!!" Queen's dinosaur neck, human torso, mechanical armaments, and massive bulk crowd the live floor as he faces Sanji. Sanji calls to Chopper, asking, "Chopper, you holding up over there?" Queen laughs that the knowledge will not save him. The transformation raises the danger after Sanji's rescue: Queen is no longer merely swinging dinosaur size around, but revealing the modified body and weapons that made him one of Kaido's highest-ranking monsters.

Nearby, the medical team tends to Zoro, who is still wrapped in bandages like a cross. Miyagi says, "You betcha!! My right as rain... just keep your eyes on the prize!!" and Chopper, now shrunken into a tiny elderly baby-like form, reacts with surprise: "Miyagi, my boy." Tristan admits, "I had no clue you had this sort of remedy on Zou!!" Chopper, labeled "Baby Gramps Chopper, a side effect of the new Rumble Ball," says it is a super recovery drug but he cannot administer it by himself. He warns, "Taking this can cause one's pain to double after it wears off." Zoro, barely conscious, does not care. He says, "There's no time to worry about that, just give it to me already!! Huff... huff... I don't care what happens to my body after this. It won't even matter... if I can't fight now!!" The page shows Zoro choosing the brutal short-term chance to return over any concern for the later cost.

On the castle interior fourth floor, the Gifter betrayal reaches Jinbe's fight. Enemies scream, "Damn Gifters!! Why...?" and "Gyah!!" as the converted fighters tear through the floor. Who's-Who sees the battlefield changing and says, "I don't get what's going on, but... I guess I can't afford to go easy on you now...!!" He draws a blade and attacks Jinbe with a flying slash technique, shouting, "Blade Pistol!!" The cutting shots tear across the floor with "Pew pew" while Jinbe braces himself and begins, "Fishman Karate..." His fist tightens with a heavy impact mark as he prepares his counter. The page re-centers the duel after Otama's order: Who's-Who has lost the luxury of support from Kaido's grunts, so he shifts into full offense against Jinbe himself.

Jinbe answers Who's-Who's speed with Fishman Karate. Who's-Who lunges with cutting Six Powers techniques, calling "Shave!!" as he vanishes and reappears, then "Tempest Kick!!" as a sweeping air blade slices toward Jinbe. Jinbe, steady in the middle of the smoke, counters with "Arabesque Brick Fist!!" The impact bursts outward and forces Who's-Who back, shocking him with a sharp "!!!" as the attack breaks through the momentum of his assault. The page is a clean exchange of styles: Who's-Who uses the evasive and cutting arts of government agents, while Jinbe's karate turns the surrounding air and water-like force against him. With the lesser fighters being cleared away, their duel becomes more technical and more personal.

Jinbe recognizes the techniques. He says, "'Iron Body,' right? Those are the Six Powers used by government officials!!" Who's-Who stands revealed in a saber-toothed, masked form, and Jinbe remembers hearing about a rogue member of CP9, the secret intelligence agency, breaking out of prison. The idea of an official being arrested struck him as odd. Who's-Who laughs that Jinbe knows such an old story and says, "Well, it's true!! Back then, we never made direct contact, huh..." The conversation turns the fight into a hidden history lesson. Who's-Who is not just a Tobiroppo; he was once a promising government agent from the same era as CP9, and his fall from that world is somehow tied to why he now fights as a pirate under Kaido.

Who's-Who explains his past while continuing to attack. He says he is pretty happy with how things turned out, but that he used to have it rough because of a mistake he made twelve years ago. Back then, he says, he was considered a bright prospect, "a rival to the genius, Rob Lucci!!" Then he launches another technique: "Fang Pistol!!" A sharp, fang-shaped shot tears toward Jinbe, who dodges aside with a burst of motion. Who's-Who presses the attack, still framed by his saber-toothed features and black mask. The page sharpens the stakes of his grudge: his identity as a pirate officer is built on a failed government career, and he measures that former promise against Rob Lucci's success even while trying to prove himself against Jinbe.

Jinbe sees through the fighting style and says, "I can see your talent, you use variants on the Six Powers I've never seen before." But he adds that Who's-Who's unfortunate situation does not seem to have anything to do with him. Who's-Who disagrees, saying Jinbe is a proud member of the Straw Hat crew, and that the name always reminds him of his bitter past. He finally reveals the reason: "12 years ago, I failed to guard a Devil Fruit that was being transported on a government ship... I was shocked when 'Straw Hat' Luffy came to prominence two years ago... That's when I learned... that the stolen Gomu Gomu Fruit... had been eaten by him!!" A footnote emphasizes that the fruit was important enough for the World Government to guard. The chapter ends on Who's-Who's fanged mask filling the page as Luffy's fruit becomes the center of a much larger mystery.
