Trump Card

Bartolomeo stands with arms crossed, shouting "BARRIER!" as he activates his power with a "SWISH!" A panel shows the barrier deflecting incoming black bullets with "Eee!!" and "fwoosh!" effects. Text labels the location: "PLATEAU ON WHICH THE ROYAL PALACE IS LOCATED - LEVEL 3". A massive explosion erupts from the ground with "Voom!!" and huge "バババババーン!!!" sound effects. Luffy watches in amazement from the side, yelling "WHOA! AWE-SOME!" The blast reveals newly formed stairs. Bartolomeo flicks his fingers and declares "BARRIER ABILITY!!!" as someone shouts his name: "BARTOLOMEO!"

Luffy leaps forward with a massive "はー..kull" impact, shouting "HELL YEAH!!!" Bartolomeo cheers from the side, "LUFFY-SENPAI! PLEASE, USE THIS!" while holding up a barrier platform. Someone warns Luffy, "YOU'RE FACING THE WRONG WAY, LUFFY'S OVER HERE." Luffy grabs the barrier stairs, exclaiming "THESE ARE GONNA COME IN HANDY!!" In close-up, Luffy grins and yells "GO!" while holding his arm out. Bartolomeo thanks him profusely: "NO, NO. THANK YOU! THANK YOU FOR BEING BORN. THANK YOU FOR EXISTING." Luffy replies, "THANKS, CHICKEN-HEAD!!" as the group prepares to ascend toward Level 4.

A soldier is kicked flying with a loud "WAHH!" as Bartolomeo attacks with "カバばっ!!" and "!!I" reactions. Close-ups show intense combat with impact lines and "!!" effects. The soldier shouts, "I'LL HOLD THEM OFF! HURRY, STRAW HAT!" while clashing weapons. Another voice calls out, "AH! WAIT, SOLDIER-SAN!" as the soldier is sent flying again. Luffy runs ahead, declaring "I'M GOING AHEAD!" amid the chaos of the staircase battle.

Cavendish roars in fury, gripping his sword as he declares, "I CAN'T GO ON WITHOUT GIVING THESE BASTARDS RETRIBUTION! GO!!" and laments, "MY BELOVED HORSE LIES FALLEN ON THIS FLOOR..." while a small figure yells "CABBAGE!" Explosions erupt as barriers shatter. Luffy dodges incoming attacks while a voice shouts "LUFFY! DODGE THEM!" A massive gloved fist smashes through the air with "GLINT" and "fwoom" effects. Cavendish demands, "THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR BARRIERS!I" as Bartolomeo yells "YAAAAA ARGH!!" and another voice insists "I'VE GOT IT COVERED!!"

Bartolomeo explains his barrier limit: "RIGHT NOW I'VE USED IT ALL ON THESE STAIRS... THERE'S A LIMIT... ON THE TOTAL SURFACE AREA OF BARRIER I CAN PUT OUT AT ANY GIVEN TIME..." Cavendish snarls "I HAD NO CHOICE!" Cavendish then urges, "UNTIL YOU CAN USE YOUR BARRIERS AGAIN I'LL FIGHT ALONGSIDE YOU! SO, KEEP IT TOGETHER!" while calling the enemy "THIS GUY'S UNBELIEVABLE!!" Bartolomeo vows, "IF I CAN BE OF USE TO LUFFY-SENPAI THEN I SHALL GLADLY GIVE UP EVEN THIS LIFE!!" A massive attack labeled "CINCO MANO, SPANK!" lands with heavy impact. Someone shouts "WHAT TACTLESS DOLLS!"

Nico Robin stands firm as a voice asks, "IS IT WORTH BETTING OUR LIVES ON!" and another replies "OUR CAPTAIN..." Robin tells someone, "I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL, CHICKEN-KUN." Cavendish continues fighting while declaring, "LUFFY HAS ALWAYS BEEN... THE WINNING TRUMP CARD!" Massive impacts and debris fly as fighters clash across the chaotic battlefield.

A spiky-haired fighter unleashes "MILLE FLEUR!" followed by a giant hand attack "GIGANTESCO MANO!!!" that engulfs the area. Cavendish shouts "DAMN STRAIGHT!" while a hooded figure with a scar declares, "I WON'T LET YOU LAY A HAND ON LUFFY!" Hearts and debris fill the background as the massive technique dominates the scene.

In the burning streets of Acacia, Dressrosa, panicked citizens flee as massive destruction erupts around them. "THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN GO AFTER THE STRAW HATS WITH ALL THIS COMMOTION!" someone yells amid the chaos. "WAA AAAA AH!!" screams another. The scene shifts to a ruined battlefield where Sabo, cloak marked with "GRAVITY," confronts Admiral Fujitora. Fujitora speaks calmly: "IF I CAN'T GET YOU TO SYMPATHIZE WITH ME EVEN A LITTLE, WELL..." Sabo replies with a smirk, "HEHE... I'M BLIND, YOU SEE..." Fujitora continues, "OH DEAR... YOU'VE CAUGHT ME, IT SEEMS." Sabo presses, "HOW LONG DO YOU INTEND TO PLAY THE FOOLI" Fujitora answers, "HAA... HAA... YOU'RE QUITE A STRANGE ONE... YOUR OBJECTIVE IS TO STOP THE MARINES, IS IT NOTI" A translator note explains the "GRAVITY SWORD" pun on Kanji. Sabo unleashes his attack: "GRAVITON!" He declares, "MY... THE REVOLUTIONARY ARMY'S SECOND-IN-COMMAND CERTAINLY ISN'T ALL TALK!" Fujitora retorts firmly, "I DON'T DISCRIMINATE!!"

Sabo swings his pipe with fierce force as Fujitora counters. "WHAT THE HELL IS HE PLOTTING!I" Sabo thinks while striking, the impact marked "LENCH" and "NGH!!" A massive explosion rocks the city with "Fierce Tiger!" as buildings crumble. Sabo questions the technique: "HORIZONTAL GRAVITYI" The fight intensifies with rapid strikes and debris flying. In the lower panels, a cloaked figure speaks in sequence: "THE GAME IS OVER BEFORE IT EVEN BEGINS!" "IF YOU LOSE YOUR DICE..." "YOU MUST BE PREPARED TO RISK YOUR OWN NECK." "COME HELL OR HIGH WATER..." Sabo lands a powerful blow, shouting, "I MUST GET YOU TO AT LEAST BE THIS SERIOUS!" as the ground erupts in a massive blast marked with huge SFX.

Rebecca stands amid the chaos near the Level 4 Sunflower Fields, her expression tense. "OI, OI REBECCA!" a voice calls out. "NO WAY! I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT THIS GUY!" she replies with "HAA..." A cloaked figure (Kyros) stands alone in the vast sunflower field as voices taunt from the stands: "WHY DON'T YOU FIGHT!I" "WHY DO YOU RUN!I" The figure remains silent amid rustling flowers. The scene cuts to the Colosseum stands where angry spectators yell, "BACK AT THE COLOSSEUM... YOU SOLD SEATS FOR US BUT YOU'VE LONG OUTLIVED YOUR USEFULNESS!!" "YOU'RE A GLADIATOR! HAVEN'T YOU COME TO KILL ME!I" A massive impact sends someone flying with "KYAH!"

The cloaked Kyros strikes down violently as Rebecca is knocked to the ground amid sunflowers. "YOU'RE LOOKIN' AT HIM!" someone shouts. "THE PERSON WHO SHOT DOWN YOUR MOTHER, SCARLET," another voice declares. Rebecca gasps, "I'LL SAY IT UNTIL YOUR EARS BLEED..." while struggling. Kyros yells desperately, "SCARLET DOWN!" Rebecca cries out, "SOLDIER-SAN!!!" A flashback panel shows her younger self pleading, "SINCE THAT'S WHAT I USED TO PUT..." Kyros responds, "A GUN WOULD BE MORE FITTING, HUH..." Rebecca screams, "SAVE ME..." as the confrontation reaches its peak in the sunflower field.

Kyros swings his massive sword in a furious overhead strike, the blade slamming into his towering opponent with explosive force. The enemy reels back, mouth open in a pained roar as debris and impact lines erupt around them. Rebecca watches from the side, eyes wide. The giant bellows, "GUAH!" A small figure below gasps, "!!I" Kyros's face twists in rage as he shouts, "TAKE AWAY TWO OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS!I" The opponent snarls back, "YOU THINK I'D LET YOU..." Kyros finishes the assault with a final cry of his own name, "KYROS!"

Rebecca's eyes widen in shock and tears stream down her face as she cries out, "FATHER!" Flashbacks show her as a child reaching toward a small figure in the rain, thinking, "I COULDN'T SAVE HER!" Narration highlights Kyros as "HE'S A LEGEND. THE STRONGEST GLADIATOR IN THE HISTORY OF THE COLOSSEUM." A soldier-like figure urges, "IF YOU WANT RICHES, BECOME STRONG!" Kyros, in profile, reflects, "DESPITE THE FACT THAT YOUR KIND-HEARTED SELF SO RESEMBLES YOUR MOTHER... I WAS BUT A FUTURELESS TOY. I..." Rebecca pleads, "FORGIVE ME, REBECCA!" Kyros concludes firmly, "BUT, TODAY, NO MORE. I COULD DO LITTLE BUT TEACH YOU HOW TO FIGHT..."

Rebecca gasps as the ground shakes with "RATTLE" and "!!!" Luffy, Law, and a hooded swordsman burst onto the scene. Luffy yells, "WE MADE IT! LEVEL 4! MINGO'S HERE!" The hooded figure declares, "FREE AT LAST!" Rebecca stares in disbelief. Kyros states calmly, "YOU NO LONGER NEED TO FIGHT." Rebecca's eyes fill with tears as she answers, "YES!" Luffy grins and shouts, "HELL YEAH!" The hooded man adds, "MY APOLOGIES, YOU TWO... IT SEEMS I'VE MY HANDS FULL WITH THIS GUY..." Rebecca calls out, "HURRY! GIMME THE KEY!!!" and "REBECCA! THE KEY!" as chaos erupts around them with sound effects like "ビビビ" and "ドドド".
