16x597 - An Intense Battle! Caesar Exercises His True Power!

[bunniefuu]

All the pirates who are after the One Piece...

...head for the New World, the second half of the Grand Line.

However, no one has ever fully explored it except for Gold Roger, King of the Pirates.

The New World has ruined many pirates' dreams and ambitions.

Now, Monkey D. Luffy, a boy whose body turned to rubber after he ate the Gum-Gum Fruit,

and his friends venture into that sea.

I'm gonna become the King of the Pirates!

After surviving a fierce battle,

the Straw Hats finally entered the New World, the harshest sea ruled by the Four Emperors.

After landing on Punk Hazard; an island with two parts, one burning, the other frozen,

they learned about the hideous experiments performed by Caesar Clown, the Master,

and headed off to investigate but as things got going,

they came to form an alliance with the Heart Pirates led by Trafalgar Law.

And Luffy finally encountered Caesar!

You shouldn't underestimate me.

Who is there?!

Why are you...

...here?!

It's been years.

You've grown up.

Law.

"A Samurai Who Can Cut Fire! Foxfire Kin'emon!"

Do you really think that he had no idea?

We don't trust Caesar, either.

That's why he was being careful and sent an undercover agent.

Monet is that agent.

You're a Warlord-sama now, aren't you?

You've done so well.

When did you come here?

Vergo!

Just arrived. Luckily, I was at Dressrosa.

I got a ride in an SAD tanker that was about to leave.

It was the right move.

The right move?!

Did I cause any harm to you guys?!

No but if you did, you'd be dead by now.

You can't fool grown-ups, Law.

In that case, I should just finish you!

Oh, I forgot to mention.

You've got to say it properly.

It's Vergo-san to you.

IN FRONT OF THE LABORATORY LUFFY'S GROUP

What just happened?

I have no idea.

What should we do?

Tashigi-chan!

It's Vice Admiral Smoker!

I can't believe I saw him get taken down twice a day.

Three of the Straw Hats got beaten, too!

Was it Conqueror's Haki?!

No way! There can't be that much difference in their strength!

Then what was it?! He beat all of them without even touching them!

That serves you right, Navy!

That was what our savior - Master is capable of!

Master! Master! Master! Master!

Master! Master! Master!

My strong soldiers!

Tie these five up!

Use Sea Prism Stone chains for the Devil Fruit eaters!

Leave the Navy soldiers here and get inside the laboratory.

It's dangerous out here.

Something strange is raining down but don't worry.

I'll protect this place where you belong!

Yes, Master!

Looks like the Cool Brothers blew it.

But it can't be helped.

Fighting against Straw Hat and Law must've been too much for them.

THE MIDDLE LAKE - ZORO'S GROUP

Gross!

Alright, Brook. Convince them.

That's impossible!

What kind of negotiation skill is going to work for these monsters?!

They're merging into one another!

Boy, they're merging into one another and getting bigger.

I-I-It got bigger!

Do I have a choice? It's my personal mission!

I'm Sanji, I'm a man! I've got to do it!

Sanji-san!

Do something about the Slimes behind you.

Please be careful!

What a pain in the a*s! That worthless chef!

Oh, it's coming!

Don't... Don't... Don't attack me!

It's big, it's big!

Oh no, you better not do that!

Whoa, don't! Help me!

You did it!

I knew you could do it, Zoro-san!

It's gas! Run!

I've had enough!

I-I-It's poison gas!

My eyes, my eyes!

Oh, I don't have eyes.

Hey, what's your problem?!

You jelly-ish body entity!

Poison gas, again!

What should we do, Zoro-san?! It's poison gas!

I did the same thing before!

Learn from observation, skeleton!

I thought you were just unlucky.

We're surrounded.

This is not good.

It's cold!

Where is the samurai's torso?

Alright. Let's use it!

Observation Haki!

We have nowhere to go now!

Oh yeah, they're jellies!

Why don't you eat and digest them?

No way!

Could you stop talking to me like a bully?!

I'm like years older than you!

I'm sorry, grandpa!

Who did you call "grandpa"?!

I'm still a lively skeleton...

What's the matter?!

Samurai-san?! T-T-Take it easy!

So cold!

Sorry, Nami-san.

Could this be the Slime's toxin?!

Whoa-whoa, I hope his torso is not engulfed by it!

I've been using Observation Haki for quite a while

but maybe the torso's getting weaker.

I can't distinguish its life force from that of the fish!

A shark?

No way!

A-Are you alright?

Hey, what's the matter?! What's going on?!

Wait, you shithead! Don't mess with me!

Stop chewing on it, shark!

I-I-It doesn't hurt at all! It itches!

What's wrong with him?!

Is he bluffing?

That hurts... Not really!

Maybe something happened to Sanji-san?!

You fool, let it go!

Now!

Joue sh**t!

Alright, I got the last piece safely!

The samurai puzzle will be complete!

I gotta go back now!

It's gonna close up!

Dammit!

The poison got this far!

sh*t! It's all around me now!

Can I do it with Nami-san's strength?

It's gonna put a strain on her body again...

This is not good!

The whole lake is turning to the color of the poison!

Sanji-san, hurry up!

Blue Walk!

Don't close up! Don't close up! Don't close up!

Don't close up!

Sanji-san!

Oh, he got it!

He really did it!

What can I say?!

I have never felt so happy to just have my own body!

THE SAMURAI FROM THE WANO KINGDOM FOXFIRE KIN'EMON

Oh, I didn't know you were so tall!

You're as tall as I am.

Oh yes! Excuse me for not introducing myself sooner!

My name is Kin'emon!

I was born in Kuri, Wano Kingdom!

Just do it already! I'm gonna freeze to death!

Yes! I'm sorry!

Poof!

It's still cold.

The coat will disappear once he takes it off, right?

Funny-eyebrow man, what is your honorable name, sir?

I'm Sanji!

Cut the "sir" crap!

Now you have your whole body back so you've changed your attitude!

But you were insulting me so much earlier

hiding behind the fact you were disabled!

I hope you're not forgetting what you said!

You people are pirates?!

No wonder you people are barbaric!

I don't like pirates! You make me sick!

Don't irritate me!

Why don't you just ask me to find your body?!

I don't wanna owe anything to pirates!

I wouldn't ask you even if it kills me!

Now, I'm not even capable of fighting back if someone hits me

so you can carry me if you want to.

I will never forget!

Ever!

I will never forget your kindness for the rest of my life!

I appreciate everything!

And please forgive me for having doubts about you all...

...until I got my torso back!

I'm begging you! I'm begging you!

I'm begging you!

I'm begging you...

Stop it, fool! Lift your head up!

Men shouldn't kneel on the ground that easily!

But if you, sir, weren't there, I probably...

Um, I'm sorry to interrupt you but, Sanji-san...

Looks like we're in big trouble.

Look. You see?

THE THIRD LABORATORY

The drug...

If only I could find out how he made the drug...

Is that...

Great! It's a book about drugs!

Now I gotta look for sedatives.

Master, the airship is ready.

Okay.

Then let's go pick them up.

It's about time for them to have these.

Put Straw Hat and the others in a cage and carry it to my chambers.

Yes, Master!

We have nowhere to run now!

Hey, guys! Didn't I tell you to do something about them?!

It can't be helped because we couldn't do anything.

That's right.

Don't be such children, you idiots!

I can't cause any damage to Nami-san's body!

This body...

Th-This body, I have to...

You're not gonna return it, are you?

Of course not!

Why don't we burn them down?

What?

People call me Foxfire Kin'emon.

I can burn and slice an enemy with my sword.

Let me burn them down and clear the way to escape!

You can burn and slice an enemy?

It sounds like magic!

He cut the fire!

Now I cleared the way.

I'm coming for you, Momonosuke!

Huh?! I'm still alive!

I thought we were engulfed by the fire from the expl*si*n!

K-K-Kin'emon-san? What just happened?

I just cut the expl*si*n.

The expl*si*n?!

My Foxfire Style

allows me to cut something with fire and then cut flames.

There is no flame that I can't cut!

Now I'm going to go to the laboratory to save Momonosuke!

If you'll excuse me!

Wait!

I'm intrigued by a samurai's fight.

I'll go with you to rescue your son!

A mysterious man suddenly appears and hurts Law with his immense power.

His identity causes quite the shock,

and the identity of the powerful enemy that stands behind

Caesar and the mysterious man finally comes to light!

On the next episode of One Piece!

"Shocking! The True Identity of the Mystery Man Vergo!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
