The mist of Elbaf clears, revealing a legion of giant soldier clones blocking Luffy’s path. Vegapunk’s final technology has activated the ancient weapons guarding the island.

With a former ally turned into a lethal enemy, Luffy faces his most heartbreaking trial yet. The battlefield shifts to the heart of Elbaf, and the era of the pirates teeters on the brink of total collapse.
