Impossible to Avoid!? Admiral Kizaru's Speed of Light Kick!!

Stepping into the open at last, Kizaru shows off his bewildering light abilities and then sets upon the Supernova Basil Hawkins, all while Urouge and X Drake trade blows with a Pacifista. A second cyborg keeps Kid and Law occupied, and a third planted itself directly in the path of the Straw Hat Pirates. As the episode winds down, an unidentified man hefting an enormous broadaxe lingers nearby, biding his time until a signal reaches him.

Among the pirates scrambling away across Grove 27, one tries firing on the admiral, yet the shot drifts harmlessly through Kizaru's glowing body. He materializes in front of the group asking after a man called Sentomaru, but the terrified pirates bolt before answering. Kizaru then snaps out a kick that sends a lance of light slicing between them and felling a mangrove, which earns grumbling from his soldiers; Apoo, watching from a distance, looks unmoved by the display. Across the grove, Bonney has reduced several Marines to elderly men or small children and devours a meal as she laughs at them, while Capone Bege simply informs the troops boxing him in that they have already been beaten. When Kizaru reaches Hawkins, the rookie's crew begs him to run, but he answers evenly that today is not the day he is destined to die. Meanwhile Usopp is still trying to steer Luffy away from the amusement park when a stranger plants himself before them, and Luffy demands to know who he is.

The trailer for the following episode runs shorter than the usual length. A character named Faust is drawn into the background of the original manga panels for this part of the story, yet the adaptation leaves him out entirely. The episode draws from chapters 507 and 508, and it introduces the Pacifista designated PX-4 along with Sentomaru.
