Believe in Luffy! The Alliance's Counterattack Begins!

Through a Mary, Momonosuke broadcasts that he survived and that Luffy will bring Kaidou down, which sets the Live Floor cheering and fighting with fresh fire. Still hunted, he and Shinobu get hurled outside the Skull Dome, and Shinobu saves them at the brink by rotting the floor away so the two plunge into the sea. Bao Huang and Horseman move to announce the fall and break morale all over again.

Pushing toward the stage, Nami, Usopp, and Tama aim to let Tama command every SMILE eater who swallowed her dango. As they go, Nami's Clima-Tact suddenly speaks and rattles them. The voice belongs to Zeus, who explains that he got crammed into the baton after she tried serving him Black Balls and admits he cannot escape without Big Mom's power. Elsewhere, Law turns up beside Kid and proposes a short-lived partnership to topple the old Emperor. Meanwhile, in the Flower Capital, Hitetsu and Toko take in the Fire Festival, and he assures her that her late father is surely watching.

The CP0 agents add up the field, counting roughly five thousand fighters knocked out and a one-sided twenty thousand Beasts Pirates against seven thousand allies. Slipping onto the Live Floor right behind Bao Huang, the trio is noticed, and Ulti ambushes Usopp before snatching Tama. Nami and the now-reshaping Zeus hit back, Usopp wrenches Ulti off Tama, and Nami readies a lightning strike. Beneath the waves, the Heart Pirates catch Luffy's voice and rush to him, while Yamato gains the roof and informs Kaidou that he is severing their bond.

Momonosuke's message across the island rallies the alliance. Shinobu drops herself and the boy off Onigashima into the ocean to flee Kaidou. Zeus is revealed as the voice inside Nami's Clima-Tact and grants it new shape-shifting reach. Law offers Kid a partnership against Big Mom. The Heart Pirates find the sinking Luffy, and Yamato tells Kaidou he is cutting their ties.

This Wano Country Arc episode debuts Horseman and Nami's Third Sorcery Clima-Tact, Zeus. The anime adds an image of Yasuie on the moon after Hitetsu speaks of the dead looking down from heaven, and it lengthens the pair's flight away from Kaidou as Momonosuke and Shinobu break free.
