The Straw Hat Pirates have vanished from the sea. A massive explosion rocks the waves as the Sun Pirates' ship bursts through the surface amid debris and smoke. "WHEN DID THEY...!!I" "IT'S THE SUN PIRATES' SHIP!!!" someone shouts in shock. Below the surface, Wadatsumi swims powerfully through the water, carrying several figures on his back. "HURRY, WADATSUMI!!! CARRY THEM AWAY AS FAR AS YOU CAN!!!" a voice commands urgently. In the distance, the legendary ship built by Fisher Tiger is spotted. "THAT'S THE LEGENDARY SHIP THAT FISHER TIGER BUILT HIMSELF!!" "IT DOESN'T MATTER!!" "IS THIS REALLY OKAY!I" the crew debates as they flee.

Explosions erupt violently across the sea as the massive sea creature's hand smashes through the water. "HOT! HOT! HOT!" a shark-like fishman yells in pain. "WHAT!I WHAT'S GOING ON!I" another cries out. The creature's enormous mouth opens wide, swallowing ships and people whole. "GYAAA AHHH!!" screams echo as the group is pulled inside. "IT WAS JUST THAT BIG MONSTER'S HAND!!" a fishman realizes. "THEY'RE IN THE SEA!! I WAS WONDERING WHAT I SAW BEFORE, BUT..." "TIME TO ESCAPE!!" the crew shouts as they tumble deeper into the creature's maw.

"ALL FLEETS!! TURN AROUND!!" a voice orders as the ships are dragged into chaos. Inside the creature's mouth, the environment shifts to a hot, steamy volcanic caldera. "TORPEDO*!!!" "HOT SEA..." Kanji reads the signs noting "ATAMI" meaning hot ocean. "WE'RE INSIDE OF WADATSUMI'S MOUTH. WHERE ARE WE!I" the group panics. Wadatsumi's massive face looms angrily. "AS IF I'D LET YOU GET AWAY, YOU FISHMAN!!!" he roars with intense motion lines and bubbles filling the panel.

"WADAKICHI...!!!" a desperate voice calls out. In the chaos, Luffy and the crew are battered. "F-FOR THAT, I AM SO THANKFUL...!!!" a fishman cries. "THEN I WAS TAKEN IN BY BOSS JINBE... EVEN THOUGH I DID ALL THOSE THINGS..." "I'M SORRY...!!!" another apologizes. "STRAW HAT!! I... I DID BAD THINGS... ON FISH-MAN ISLAND..." Luffy glares back. "GET OUT OF HERE, YOU GUYS!!" he shouts as the fight rages on.

Big Mom Pirates crew members shout their resolve amid explosions and smoke on the sea. "...IS WHEN WE MADE UP OUR MINDS!! THE MOMENT WE DECIDED TO COME HELP BIG BOSS AND STRAW HAT..." A fishman-like crew member roars "HOOOO OOTTTT!!" and "OUT OF MY WAY, UMIBOUZU!!" Others debate their fate: "GYAHAA!! WE CAN'T ALL DIE. SOMEBODY HAS TO LIVE TO TELL THE TALE." "...IS ACT AS CAPTAIN JINBE'S SHIELD AND DIE IN THE PROCESSI!" "...IN OTHER WORDS, ALL WE CAN DO..." A blonde woman in a bun laughs "SHA SHASHA!! MAMA IS THE TYPE OF PERSON THAT WOULD KILL ANYBODY WHO TRIES TO LEAVE THIS COUNTRY." Another adds "THAT MAKES SENSE... HAHAHA HA!!" A scarred man with a topknot glares and declares "I WON'T LET THEM DELAY... PREPARE YOURSELVES!!!" and "...I WON'T BLAME ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO ESCAPE... BUT FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO STAY..."

The crew continues their desperate stand. "EVERY-ONE MADE UP THEIR MINDS!!" A massive fishman-like figure leaps with "YEAAAAA AHHHH!!" as the narration reads "JINBE'S DEPARTURE ON HIS NEW VOYAGE!!" On the burning ship, a crew member yells "STAND DOWN, WADAT-SUMI!!!" while another shouts "BUGH!!" A woman cries "ALADINE!!" and voices call "EVERYONE!!" as the ship erupts in smoke and debris.

YOU TOO, STRAW HATS!!" while the crew chants "WE WISH YOU A SAFE VOYAGE!!!" On a smaller ship, crew members patch sails: "PATCH THE HOLES IN THE SAILS SO THEY'RE ABLE TO CATCH THE WIND... WORK TOGETHER!" "THE SHIP IS BECOMING HEAVIER AND SLOWER." "QUICK, REMOVE ALL THE WATER!!" "A SAIL SHIP BECOMES VULNERABLE WHEN FLOODED..." "ESCAPE AT THE FASTEST SPEED POSSIBLE!!!" On the deck, Luffy asks "WHAT'S THAT EXPLANATION FOR!I" while Jinbe replies "IT WILL STILL TAKE A FEW HOURS FOR YOU TO GET OUT OF BIG MOM'S TERRITORY...!!!" as others react with shock.

A massive scarred man with topknot sweats and growls "I CAN'T... LEAVE THEM BEHIND!!!" with SFX "WHEEZE WHEEZE". Nearby, a crew member reports "THEY'RE GUARDING OUR REAR TO HELP THE SHIP ESCAPE!!" Luffy clenches his fist and shouts "...ALRIGHT!! I UNDERSTAND! THEN WE'LL ALSO...!!!" The scarred man insists "THE REAR GUARD!! PLEASE LEAVE IT TO ME!!" while another warns "WE WON'T BE ABLE TO MAKE IT OUT...!!!" "WE'VE MADE IT THIS FAR, BUT... IF THE FLAGSHIP AND FLEET CONTINUE TO CHASE US..."
