Summary

Three days after the warlord's fall, Tsuru and Sengoku land with reinforcements and find Issho seated and eating, explaining that twice now his die has spared Luffy by landing on one. Mansherry arrives asking the soldiers to donate blood for her healing flowers, and the smitten Marines line up eagerly, Sengoku among them. At the palace, plans move ahead to restore Riku to the throne and name Rebecca crown princess.

To shield his daughter from his criminal past, Kyros spreads a story that her father was a fallen prince from a distant land, leaving Rebecca shaken when she hears it from her attendants. Kin'emon and Kanjuro, ferrying groceries by drawn sparrow, are baffled since they know Kyros is her true father. Back at the camp, Tsuru rolls a six on the admiral's die, and the result frees the Marines to move. Luffy wakes, Bartolomeo bursts in with word of the assault, and the pirates ready their escape.

Notes

This Dressrosa Arc episode debuts Mansherry's Kenpopo technique and carries a Nami eyecatcher. It notably lacks a listed episode number in its infobox header.

Added material includes Kyros visiting Scarlett's grave alone, Marines confirming lookouts at every port, and a blood-donation rivalry between Sengoku and the soldiers. The anime also reorders the die roll to follow Sengoku's offer to help Mansherry rather than precede her introduction.
