Summary:
The episode begins with a previous flashback to the Block B match, including a display of the King Punch and Bartolomeo winning, much to the displeasure of the crowd. Luffy is seen still hanging and after seeing Bartolomeo win, he breaks into the building. He goes to the main entrance where the wounded warriors are being taken away. He talks to an injured Bellamy, who recognizes Luffy’s strength and use of Haki. When he calls Luffy “Straw Hat”, Bartolomeo hears it and is shocked. It is later announced that the Block C match will begin.
The scene changes to Law and his group about to cross the bridge. They are attacked by a school of Fighting Fish, but manage to make it safely to the Green Bit. Law is revealed to have Caesar’s heart, the latter is freed from his bonds for help. They also hear strange voices in a place on the bridge. Green Bit is shown as a dense jungle.
The story shifts to Sanji’s location where he and Violet arrive in another town. Sanji attacks some thugs in the warehouse and easily disposes of them. As the two recent lovebirds share a moment, Violet cuffs Sanji and is revealed to know Sanji’s true identity as Black Leg, much to Sanji’s astonishment.
After the B block battle royale ends, Bellamy is carried away on a stretcher and as he passes Luffy, he comments that he hasn’t changed a bit, Luffy on the other hand disagrees and that he has changed. Bellamy laughs at this and tells Luffy that he’s the one who changed, commenting on his exceptional Haki, then tells Luffy that the whole rooting for him thing has crushed his pride and calls him “Straw Hat” which gets attention. Bartolomeo, who is standing a few feet away.
At the bridge to the Green Bit, the “Caesar Exchange Team” is making their way across the iron bridge with 45 minutes left until the Caesar Clown exchange time. Unfortunately for them, they are attacked by a school of Fighting Fish, which are so large that the iron bridge easily bends under their weight, prompting Robin to wonder if they really are fish, to which Law replies that they are, though Usopp disagrees and Caesar says, that they are the same as sea monsters. But Law doesn’t seem too upset about the fish and notes that it’s not a problem that Usopp and Robin can’t handle, which confuses Usopp as he believes that since Law is the Shichibukai, he should be the one to deal with the fish. The school of fish begin attacking the bridge again, forcing Robin and Usopp to deal with them, much to Law’s happiness, but when they realize there are too many fish to deal with, they decide to make a run for it. Law also tells Usopp to remove Caesar’s handcuffs so he can help, saying that Caesar won’t run as long as he has Caesar’s heart, which angers Caesar. Caesar helps by defeating some fish while the other three run, Usopp then asks Law again why he isn’t fighting, to which Law replies that he has to save all his energy to fight Doflamingo to Caesar’s shock.
The group is then met with more bad luck as another part of the bridge has been destroyed by fish, as well as the fact that it is surrounded by fog and to make matters worse, another fighting fish jumps out of the water to attack the group. Luckily, much to the group’s surprise, the fish is stopped by some sort of fishing net, voices are then heard on the other side of the bridge, making the group wonder who it could be, and Usopp calls out asking if anyone is on the other side. and if they can help them overcome. However, this surprises and frightens the mysterious strangers. Law then gets Caesar to use his gas powers to fly the group to the Green Bit, much to Caesar’s anger.
Arriving at Green Bit, the group can find no sign of the people who caught the fish, and notices both a large number of shipwrecks and the giant, lush forest of Green Bit. Law then discovers that the southeast beach is just ahead, while Usopp notices a naval ship that has crashed into the island, and Robin uses his binoculars to confirm that the ship has recently damaged plants and trees. Robin also notes that the ship itself isn’t badly damaged, and Caesar becomes paranoid that the exchange has been compromised and complains to Law, who wonders what to do next. Caesar begs Law to call off the exchange because the marines are there and he is the enemy of the marines, but Law refuses, saying that since he is an ally of the Straw Pirates, the marines are now his enemy and that he will need Robin and Usopp’s powers to explore the forest and make sure that nothing strange is happening.
Meanwhile, Sanji is still with Violet and finds several of Doflamingo’s men attempting to attack Violet, which Sanji easily defeats. Just then, Violet takes advantage of Sanji’s affection and handcuffs him, revealing her true nature.
