Summary:
Kalifa and the rest of CP9 had just been informed by a government agent that the back two cars had been separated. Kalifa asks how they could do that, but the agent tries to defend himself, saying that T Bone was beaten too. The Caliph wants a status report and the government agent says there are five cars left, but the Marines and World Government agents were taken out in the fifth car. He says Wanze is guarding the fourth car, Nero in the third car, Nico Robin in the first car, and everyone else in the second car. Rob Lucci suddenly speaks up and says that their enemy shouldn’t be considered likely, but Lucci says that the only problem now is that Franky is on the run. Lucci says that Robin and Franky will be transported safely to Enies Lobby and he doesn’t care how many men they lose. Kalifa asks if the intruders have been identified, and the agent says that two of them were prisoners, but one of them now has a special mask. He also says there’s a blond guy in a suit he’s never seen before. Kaku concludes that the intruder is a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, knowing that he is trying to save Robin and that Franky is helping them out. Blueno offers to watch over Robin, but Lucci says it’s not necessary and that they should focus on capturing Franky. Lucci then says that saving Robin will not happen.
In Car 4, Sanji tells Sogeking and Franky to continue as saving Robin is the top priority. However, Wanze is not going to let them go so easily and eats a lot of flour. Sogeking is afraid of more nose noodles, but Wanze fires a bunch of sharp noodles (Ramen Beam) at Sogeking and Franky, who both barely dodge. Sanji tries to attack Wanz, but the noodle chef dodges it. Sogeking and Franky then move to the next wagon, but Wanze says that Nero will be waiting for them. Sanji tries to attack Wanze with Flanchet Shoot, but Wanze keeps dodging his attacks. Meanwhile, Sogeking’s theme plays again and he stands on top of Franky, trying to figure out how to get to Robin’s car quickly. Angered, Franky tells Sogeking to go, calling him “Stupid Slimy Squid King.” Sogeking yells at him, but hearing the “slimy squid” gets an idea and tells Franky he has a plan. Sanji and Wanze continue their fight, but Sanji is getting fed up with Wanze dodging all of his attacks. Wanze then activates his Men-Kiri Hono Hocho and tries to attack Sanji with a fire kick, but Sanji blocks it with several kicks. Wanze suddenly cried out in pain after being hit twelve times by Sanji. Wanze wonders if Sanji is strong, but says that Sanji’s curled eyebrows made him dizzy. Wanze then eats a lot of flour and uses Ramen Kenpo Ogi: Men’s Formal Suit to create a battle suit out of ramen. Sanji is angry at Wanze for using food to fight, but Wanze says that he is much stronger now. Sanji promises to make Wanze eat all the noodles.
On top of Puffing Tom, Franky is seen being confronted by Nero. Franky asks why Nero is waiting on the roof because he would come inside instead. However, Nero knew that Franky would just skip around the car. Knowing that Nero needs to be careful, Franky suddenly tells Nero to look away. Nero does so and Franky punches him from behind. Nero says it was a dirty trick and Franky says he’s not the king of the Water 7 underworld for nothing. On Rocketman, Luffy once again rises to the top. Nami wonders where Luffy went and Zoro is also at a loss. Nami, Zoro and Chopper wonder what happened to him as Luffy continues on the Sea Train. Luffy eats a piece of meat and says they’re going to get Robin (as does Usopp).
Sanji and Wanze prepare to start their fight and Wanze is attacked by Tonkotsu Spank. Sanji dodges and says it’s the same weak punch but bigger. Wanze attacks again, but when Sanji tries to kick the attack, his foot gets stuck in the noodles. Wanze starts beating Sanji around the room and mocks Sanji saying how effective his noodles are. Wanze stared dazedly at Sanji’s brow, but quickly snapped out of it and brutally knocked Sanji to the ground. Wanze then crushes Sanji with the Men Soul Press and proceeds to slam across the room. Sanji is out of noodles, but Wanze continues to taunt him and shut himself in. Wanze tries to attack Sanji with the Ramen Gyoza Set – Clapping, but Sanji ducks out of the way. Knowing that the only part can attack Wanze, Sanji aims for Wanze’s head with Escalope, but Wanze fires his Ramen Beam to knock Sanji back. Wanze then prepares to finish off Sanji with a Fukumen Spank, but Sanji picks up a pair of kitchen knives to chop up the attack. Wanze is angry that Sanji chopped his noodles. Sanji says that the cook must fight without using hands or knives, but Sanji says that since he and Wanze are in the kitchen and that Wanze is using food to fight, the rules change. Wanze tries to attack Sanji with Senmen Muchi, but Sanji dodges and Wanze yells at him. Sanji apologizes, but tells Wanza that he’s going to show how a real chef handles his kitchen knives.
Back on the roof, Puffing Tom, Franky and Nero continue their fight. Nero approaches with Soru, but when Franky tries to attack him with his Power Hammer, Nero dodges it with Kami-e. Nero uses Rokushiki/Rankyaku on Franky, but it doesn’t seem to affect him much, which surprises Nero. Franky strikes back with Fresh Fire, but Nero avoids it by jumping to the sea, but uses Geppo to get back to the Sea Train. Franky wonders how Nero jumped into the air like that, and Nero wonders how Rankyaku didn’t affect Franky. Franky and Nero then pounce on the other, both wanting to know what the other is. Meanwhile, Sogeking is seen on the other side of the Sea Train wearing acetic acid. Sogeking then knocks on Robin’s window and Robin, seeing Usopp through the disguise, is surprised to see him and demands to know why he is there. Sogeking smiles as his theme plays out.
