Luffy and crew arrive on the mysterious island of Egghead

Vegapunk explains that Egghead’s futuristic inventions are derived from the technology of an advanced civilization that existed during the Void Century. He also reveals that the scholars’ research survived Ohara’s destruction and that Jaguar D. Saul carried the island’s recovered books to Elbaph. Because Vegapunk continued their forbidden investigation, the World Government has ordered his death, prompting him to request passage aboard the Straw Hats’ ship.

CP0 reaches Egghead and seizes control of the Seraphim after incapacitating Sentoumaru. Luffy clashes with Rob Lucci, while the Vegapunks attempt to prepare an evacuation. The situation shifts when Stussy betrays CP0 and reveals her secret connection to Vegapunk, but the laboratory’s defenses soon fail and the Seraphim begin attacking under an unknown command.

As the Straw Hats search for the missing Stella body, Jewelry Bonney discovers the physical manifestation of Bartholomew Kuma’s memories. Outside Egghead, Kuma attempts to climb the Red Line, Monkey D. Garp mobilizes to rescue Koby, and Shanks prepares to confront the Kid Pirates at Elbaph.
