Nami is happily riding her waver across the cloud sea, leaving a trail of smoke. She exclaims, "FANTASTIC!" Conis, watching from a ship with Pagaya, calls out, "MISS NAMI, THAT IS AMAZING!!" Pagaya, with his hands raised, says, "YES, THE JET DIAL ON THE WAVER HAS BEEN EXTINCT FOR CENTURIES! I WAS SURPRISED MYSELF." Nami replies, "THE SPEED OF THIS WAVER IS A BIT FASTER TOO...!!!" and adds, "I LOVE THIS THING!" Pagaya responds, "YES, THANK YOU!...IT SEEMS I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY RESTORED IT. I WOULD NEVER HAVE GUESSED THAT YOUR BROKEN WAVER HAD SUCH A RARE THING!" Nami asks, "NONETHELESS, WHAT SHALL WE DO NOW?" Pagaya explains, "I WAS PLANNING ON TAKING EVERYONE TO THE BORDER OF SKYPIEA, BUT..." Conis suggests, "...HM, WE SHOULD GO TO THE BEACH WHERE WE WILL REGROUP." Nami confidently says, "I'M SURE THEY'LL GET THERE SAFELY."

Aisa is sitting on the deck of the ship, crying loudly. Conis looks surprised and says, "EH?" Pagaya states, "THERE ISN'T A 4-MEMBER GROUP ON THIS ISLAND!" Conis adds, "IF THOSE FOUR ARE TOGETHER, NO ONE CAN BEAT THEM." Aisa tearfully insists, "THERE ARE ONLY 2-MEMBER GROUPS, NOT 4. I'M SURE!" Nami asks, "THE MANTRA...?" Conis explains to Nami, "YOU ALSO HAVE THAT THING GOD AND HIS PRIESTS USE..." Aisa, still crying, says, "I'VE BEEN ABLE TO USE IT EVER SINCE I WAS BORN!!...THE SCARINESS OF... YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW SCARY IT IS WHEN ALL THESE VOICES DISAPPEAR..." Nami yells at her, "CR~~Y-BABY~~!" Aisa yells back, "I'M NOT CRYING, STUPID BLUE SEA WOMAN! STUPID!" Conis explains Aisa's situation: "MISS AISA'S WAVER WAS BROKEN AND SKYFISHES WERE ATTACKING HER WHEN WE FOUND HER ON OUR WAY HERE..." Nami asks Aisa, "WHAT WERE YOU PLANNING ON DOING COMING HERE?" Aisa replies, "I DON'T KNOW, BUT... I CAN'T JUST SIT STILL!!"

Conis looks worried, thinking, "...LAKI... EVERYONE..." Pagaya sits on the deck, hugging his knees. Conis continues to worry, "EVERYONE... ARE YOU SAFE?" The scene shifts to a dense, rumbling forest. Inside a dark, cavernous space filled with debris and bones, Luffy is walking with a stick. He complains, "AH... I CAN'T TAKE THIS... I LEFT MY BACKPACK OUTSIDE AND... THESE TREES ARE ROTTEN, SO THERE ARE NO FRUITS..." His stomach growls loudly.

Luffy continues walking through the dark, strange cave, looking distressed. He says, "I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO EATING MY BOXED LUNCH... BUT NOW, I'M LOST IN THIS STRANGE CAVE FOR NO REASON... AND I CAN'T FIND THE EXIT!!!" He wonders, "ARE THEY AT THE GOLDEN CITY ALREADY? IT MUST BE SO PRETTY~~ EVERYTHING MADE OUT OF GOLD! I HEARD IN A BAR THAT GOLD BOILED VEGGIE IS A WORLD-CLASS CUISINE..." The scene cuts to Zoro walking through the forest. A South Bird is following closely behind him, making a "CHOH" sound. Zoro turns around angrily and yells, "WILL YOU STOP FOLLOWING ME!!?" The bird replies, "CHOH...". Zoro points at the bird and says, "LISTEN UP! I'VE ALREADY FINISHED MY BOXED LUNCH AND I DON'T HAVE ANY MORE FOOD! EVEN IF I DID, I WOULDN'T GIVE ANY TO YOU!! UNDERSTOOD!? NOW, GO AWAY!" Zoro turns back around, asking, "YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME? HUH!?" The bird tilts its head, "CHOH?". Zoro glares at it, "WHAT'S WITH THAT FACE...? WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!" The bird looks startled, "CHOH!!?".

A narration box reads: "One hour before God Enel's predicted time..." Another box states: "Number of survivors: 25". Enel is seen sitting calmly on a fallen log in the forest, holding his staff. Kamakiri, hiding behind a tree, spots him and is shocked. Kamakiri thinks, "... THAT'S GOD ENEL!! WHY IS HE HERE!!? IMPOSSIBLE...!!" Kamakiri grips his spear, determination in his eyes, and declares, "I'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM...!!"

Kamakiri charges out from behind the tree, aiming his spear at Enel, who remains seated calmly on the log, sparks of electricity crackling around him. Suddenly, Kamakiri stops in his tracks, his eyes wide with shock and fear. He utters, "EH...?" A massive, blinding pillar of lightning strikes the forest with a deafening roar. A narration box updates the count: "24 remaining".

In the ruins, Yama is rampaging, smashing stone structures with immense force. He yells, "MEEEH!!!!" as he destroys everything in his path. Robin is seen running and dodging the falling debris, panting heavily, "HAA... HAA... HAA......!!" Yama spots her and demands, "WHERE ARE YOU GOING!?" He continues his destructive pursuit, shattering pillars and walls, causing massive explosions of dust and rubble.

Yama lands heavily on the ground, creating a small crater. He looks towards Robin and asks, "HAVE YOU HAD ENOUGH OF RUNNING AWAY...?" Robin has stopped running and is standing in a clearing, away from the ruins. She replies calmly, "YES... IT'S NO LONGER NECESSARY." Yama, confused, repeats, "NO LONGER NECESSARY?"

Robin glares at Yama with a fierce, determined expression. She declares, "NOW, EVEN IF YOU APOLOGIZE... I WON'T FORGIVE YOU!!" Yama scoffs, "YOU, FORGIVING ME...? THAT'S PREPOSTEROUS... YOU REALLY WANT TO PROTECT THOSE RUINS... BUT THOSE RUINS AREN'T EVEN YOURS..." Robin acknowledges, "TRUE. THE RUINS DON'T BELONG TO ANYONE, BUT... FORGET IT... I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU ANYMORE." She turns her back to him. "EVEN IF YOU WOULD WANT TO TALK, YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO, BECAUSE..." Yama looks puzzled, "HUH...? DON'T WORRY..."

Yama leaps high into the air, preparing to attack. He shouts, "I WILL CRUSH YOU HERE!!! 'DROP MOUNTAIN'!!!!" Robin watches him descend and says, "IS THAT ALL? CHARGING LIKE A BULL...? I WILL TEACH YOU THE SEVERITY OF DESTROYING HISTORY...!!!" She crosses her arms in front of her chest and states, "HERE, AWAY FROM THE RUINS, I WON'T HOLD BACK! 'TREINTA FLEURS'!!!" Suddenly, thirty arms sprout from Yama's large body as he falls. Yama is caught off guard and exclaims, "OH!?"

16
Yama crashes heavily into a large tree trunk, yelling, "WAH!!!" The impact is massive. Robin winces, holding her own arm, and says, "UGH... HE IS HEAVY...!!!" Yama recovers from the crash, rubbing his head and groaning, "...!! OUCH..." He glares angrily, growling, "GRRRRRR!!"

17
Yama charges at Robin again, yelling, "EAT THIS! '10-FOLD AXE'!! MEEEH!!!" He prepares to strike. Robin quickly crosses her arms again and says, "'AXE MOUNTAIN'!!!" She sprouts arms on Yama's legs, tripping him. Yama falls forward, exclaiming, "AH!!! MY EYES...!!" He looks confused, "HUH? WHAT...?" Then he realizes something is wrong, "OH!? AH!! WAIT... THE DIALS ARE UPSIDE DOWN... WAIT!! MY DIALS!!"

Because his dials are upside down, Yama propels himself headfirst into another massive tree trunk with a loud crash. He yells, "MEEEH!!!" Robin stands calmly, watching him. Yama falls to the ground, defeated and coughing, "WAH... *COUGH*". Robin looks down at him with a stern expression, blood on her face.

Robin sprouts multiple arms on Yama's head and uses them to forcefully pull him upright. Yama groans, "...!!" Robin tells him, "THE RUINS YOU DESTROYED ARE PRICELESS... EVEN THOUGH HISTORY IS ALWAYS BEING CREATED... MEN CANNOT RETURN TO THE PAST... DO YOU UNDERSTAND!!?" Yama, intimidated, stammers, "I... I UNDERSTAND. I WON'T DO IT... AGAIN... FORGIVE ME..." Robin coldly replies, "NO!!" Yama's expression turns to rage. He growls, "...!! GRR... IN THAT CASE...!! I'LL KILL YOU!!" He suddenly grabs Robin, laughing menacingly, "WUHEHEHEH...!!" Robin looks surprised, "!"

Robin quickly reacts, crossing her arms and shouting, "'CIEN FLEURS'!!! 'DELPHINIUM'!!!" A massive path of sprouted arms appears on the ground. The arms grab Yama and forcefully bend him backwards. Yama screams in agony, "AAAAA AAAAAAA AAAAAH!!!!! MY FINGERS...!!!!" Robin stands calmly as her technique takes effect.

21
The path of arms begins to roll Yama rapidly towards the edge of a cliff. Yama is disoriented and panics, "HUH? WHAT!!? STOP IT! WAIT!! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME!?" He is rolled continuously, screaming, "AAAAA AAAAAA AAHHH!!!!" As he reaches the edge, he pleads, "...!! ENOUGH... STOP...!!" He is thrown off the cliff by the arms.

22
Yama plummets down the cliff and crashes violently into the rocky ground below. He cries out, "!!! UNGH...! IT HURTS...!!!" Robin stands at the top of the cliff, looking down at him. She says, "IT'S TOO LATE FOR APOLOGIES..." She crosses her arms one last time and says, "'CLUTCH.'" Multiple arms sprout on Yama's fallen body and forcefully bend his back, breaking it with a loud crack.

A large panel shows Yama's unconscious body lying in the crater he created, smoke rising around him. In the foreground, Robin adjusts her cowboy hat, her face bruised but resolute. She declares, "THAT'S HOW BAD YOUR CRIME WAS...!!"
