Summary:
Sengoku and Tsuru arrive on Dressrosa three days after the battle and meet Fujitora. Mansherry arrives at the Marine camp, wanting to help heal the injured citizens. Marines are easily swayed by her and donate blood to create healing flowers.
Meanwhile, the people of Dressrosa prepare to celebrate the return of Riku Dold III to the throne and Rebecca becoming the crown princess. However, Kyros begins to spread rumors that she is the daughter of a distant prince who died in war to prevent her from connecting with him and his checkered past.
Tsuru rolls a six on Fujitora’s die, allowing the marines to go after the Straw Hats and their allies. Luffy wakes up and Bartolomeo enters Kyros’ house to reveal that the marines are coming for them. The pirates are preparing to escape from the island.
Three days after Doflamingo’s fall, Vice Admiral Tsuru and Inspector General Sengoku arrive on Dressrosa with marine reinforcements. Tsuru asks if Luffy is still in the country, which the marines confirm, but reveal that they have placed patrols everywhere and have defenses all over the country. Sengoku notes that Tsuru is resentful, which angers her as she heads to the Marine camp. They reach the camp where Fujitora is sitting and eating. Tsuru asks him why he doesn’t go after the pirates, but Fujitora reveals that Luffy has providence on his side; for the last two days he had been rolling the dice with the condition that they would come after him if the die landed on anything other than a one, but both times the die landed on a one. He thanks Tsuru for helping transport Doflamingo, but reminds her that he’s in charge, and she accepts his decision, but says they can’t let the pirates go free forever. Mansherry then arrives at the camp and asks the marines to be donors, and they stare at her cute appearance. Sengoku also remarks that she is cute, but is spurred on by Maujii, who scolds him for not treating the princess with respect. Mansherry says that the dwarves shouldn’t show themselves to anyone outside of the royal family, but they still wanted to heal the citizens, which piques Sengoku’s interest.
At the royal palace, Viola is walking around wondering where Rebecca is as she remembers Rebecca’s confrontation with Riku Dold III earlier. Rebecca asked Doldo why Kyros was lying like that, but Doldo replied that it was what he wanted. Downtown, Gatz excites the citizens by announcing that today will be Dold’s return to the throne and Rebecca will be crown princess. Upstairs in the palace, Elizabello II remarks to Dold that everyone wanted him back after being fooled by Doflamingo, as he is ready to stake his future on his pacifist ideals. As Doldo remembers looking at Dressrosa while inside the Birdcage, he wishes he could be a god-like king who could ward off natural disasters, though a horrified Elizabello says he’s only joking. He says they will continue their efforts until the day Rebecca inherits the throne, but Elizabello wonders if it will turn out well because she remembers how stubborn Scarlett was when she was young.
Inside, Rebecca is dressed in a yellow attendant’s dress, but is speechless by her reflection. The servants recall hearing about her father and reveal that they heard he was a prince from a faraway land and that Scarlett ran away with him, forcing her to be declared dead. Hearing this, Rebecca’s expression turns sour and she clutches her dress as Viola looks on. In the center of town, people discuss the story of Rebecca’s father and how he died in the war, leaving her as the true, pure-blood heir to the throne. Kin’emon and Kanjuro overhear this while riding Kanjuro’s sparrow carrying groceries and are confused, knowing that Kyros is Rebecca’s father. Sitting by Scarlett’s grave, Kyros remembers spending time with Rebecca when he was a toy, and how he would drop a flower petal into her house every night to let her know he was still there.
Meanwhile, citizens line up at the Marine camp to receive glowing flowers that heal their wounds. Kin’emon and Kanjuro notice this as well as the increased presence of marines as they fly higher so as not to attract attention. At the Marine camp, Mansherry uses the Marines’ blood to create flowers, and Sengoku heartily offers many gifts, creating a competition between him and the Marines to see who can give the most. When this happens, Fujitora tells Tsuru that he can roll the dice and as always, they’ll go after the Straw Hats if anything other than a 1 comes up. Kin’emon and Kanjuro bring groceries to Kyros’ house, causing Luffy to wake up and wrap the food. Kin’emon and Kanjuro tell the others about the rumors about Rebecca’s father, surprising Luffy as he sleepily eats his food, though he also rushes to get back to Sanji’s group, causing Zoro to tell him to calm down. . Luffy is angered by the story, but Kyros reveals that he was the one who made it up. He says he did it because he used to be a criminal and should never have been in contact with royalty like he was, so he wants Rebecca to live happily without the shadow of his past behind her. However, Luffy doesn’t buy the explanation.
Just then, Bartolomeo runs to Cyrus’s house as Cyrus takes a call from Leo, and Bartolomeo is entranced to see the five straw hats together. He reveals to them that Sengoku and Tsuru are on Dressrose, and at the sailor camp, Tsuru rolls a six with Fujitora’s die. Fujitora now sets out to capture the Straw Hats and the criminals residing in the palace. The marines are mobilized, even as they question breaching the royal asylum, but Fujitora says he will take all responsibility. The pirates at Cyrus’ house then prepare to escape the island.
