Summary:
After hiding under Robin’s cloak for several episodes, Sogeking finally shows up. They stumble upon a room with CP9 and meet Sanji and Franky. Sogeking creates a smoke screen. The four head to another car, disconnect it, and escape. It doesn’t take long for Blueno to tow their car back. Franky knocks down a wall to escape, but ends up on top of an enemy car. Blueno opens the door in the Straw Pirates car.
Sanji and Franky have just defeated their opponents and enter train car 2 where the CP9 agents are. Kalifa comments on how loud it was, and Blueno and Kaku say how they underestimated the intruders. Franky warns Sanji that CP9 is using some “weird moves” and Rob Lucci walks towards Nero and kicks the unconscious Wanz away. Lucci demands to know who the man is, and Kaku says that according to Corgi, he is the newest member of CP9: Nero. However, Kaku says that Nero only knows four of the six powers, and Nero stands up and says how he will take down Franky. Lucci speaks and Nero recognizes him. Nero apologizes for not introducing himself, but decides to kill Franky. Lucci says that Franky has to stay alive and that Nero let his emotions get the better of him. Lucci says he’ll give Nero three seconds to try to escape, but Nero nervously says he doesn’t know what’s going on.
Lucci hits the “3” and Nero tries to escape with Soru, but Lucci quickly catches up with Nero and stabs him in the back with Shigano. Lucci says that in order to become a member of CP9, one must master all six abilities and sends Nero crashing out of the window into the water. Lucci then tells Kalifa in their report that Nero was too weak to be a member. Sanji is surprised by what just happened and Franky says he can’t tell which side is evil. In carriage 1, the Corgi continues to sniff at Robin. Robin comments on how Corgi has bad things, but Corgi says he’s just doing his job. Corgi notices a pair of legs and tells the pirate to get out. Sogeking comes out and pulls his gun on Corgi’s face. Sogeking introduces himself and Corgi says he won’t get away with it. Corgi tries to escape and calls out for Lucci’s help, but is shot down by Sogeking. Lucci knows Sanji is there to save Robin, but says it’s a mistake. Lucci then says that some people are better born dead and also says that there is a sleeping devil. Lucci pleads with Sanji that even though this person is an eight-year-old child, she should be put to death. Sanji tells Lucci to get to the point and Lucci says that was Robin’s story he was just telling. Lucci says that the only good thing Robin can do is die because her life is a curse. Lucci says she should have died twenty years ago, but her early death is good enough. Sanji angrily kicks at Lucca who easily blocks it and Sanji doesn’t want to hear any more. Lucci adds that the World Government will probably spend several years interrogating and tormenting Robin to extract and erase all her secrets. Sanji says he won’t allow it, but suddenly Robin and Sogeking enter train car 2. Sanji is excited to see Robin again and says that they will beat up CP9 and they can escape together. However, Robin uses her powers to send Sogeking flying and Sanji questions why she did that. Robin continues to stare blankly after telling Sanji that her words mean nothing to him.
Sanji, Franky, and Sogeking are shocked by Robin’s reaction and Lucci begins to laugh ominously. Sogeking suddenly tells Franky to disconnect the wagons and tells Franky and Sanji to run. Sogeking throws down a smoke bomb that actually stuns CP9. Taking advantage of the distraction, Sogeking grabs Robin and runs to the previous wagon. Sanji and Franky praise Sogeking’s plan and Sogeking gets into the wagon with Robin. Luffy can be heard saying “turn back” aboard the Rocketman. Everyone inside is confused as to why Luffy wants to come back and wants him to explain himself. Luffy said he wasn’t talking about them and he was talking to a big frog hopping around the tracks. Kokoro recognizes Yokozuna and wonders why he is out there. Luffy keeps telling Yokozuna to get out of the way, but Yokozuna stands his ground and prepares to take down Rocketman.
Back at Puffing Tom, Sogeking happily says how they got Robin back. However, Franky doesn’t like to run away and Sanji says how the smokescreen was so stupid that it caught CP9 off guard. Sogeking says the plan of not fighting CP9 worked, but Sanji and Franky say it was too easy. Suddenly, the wagon is caught by Kalifa’s thorn whip and Blueno pulls them inside. Lucci reminds Bluen not to kill any of the Straw Pirates as per the deal. Sanji tells Sogeking to protect Robin and Sanji gives a swift kick to Bluen. However, Blueno uses Tekkai to block him. Sanji then spins on the ground and delivers a powerful kick (Concassé) that stuns Bluen. Kaku comments on how strong the kick was and warns Bluen that even though Sanji doesn’t have a reward, he is one of the Straw Pirates’ main fighters. Suddenly, Robin knocks out Sogeking with the Ocho Fleur Clutch and tells him to leave her alone. Sanji looks away and Kaku, taking advantage of the distraction, furiously kicks Sanji away. Angered but moved by Sanji’s action, Franky uses his power to push the train cars away, leaving him with CP9. Kaku comments that it wasn’t wanted and Lucci questions why Franky would help the Straw Hats out. Franky says he couldn’t take it anymore and said Sanji and Sogeking won’t leave without Robin. Franky yells at Sanji and Sogeking that he has a plan, but tells them to find a way to get back to Luffy and the others. Robin says she’s not trying to escape, but Sanji doesn’t understand why she would continue to listen to CP9. Sanji says he knows why she did what she did, and even if it’s a Buster Call, they’re going to fight. Suddenly, Blueno appears behind Sanji using his Doa Doa no Mi abilities and tells Sanji that if there is a Buster Call, they will be wiped out.
