Episode 876 uncovers the hull-swap that spared the crew and tracks the helmsman as he resolves to stand with his former comrades, guarding the rear so the Sun Pirates can raise a towering current that sweeps the Straw Hats past the armada and out of Totto Land.
The burning hulk the Big Mom Pirates crow over turns out not to be the Straw Hats' vessel after all. Acting on Aladine's command, Wadatsumi had traded the crew's ship for the Sun Pirates' own, gulping the genuine one down and slipping off below the surface. Oven's heat tendrils unmask the trick and make the fish-man cough the ship back up, yet his old comrades surge upward to defend it again. Unwilling to forsake the men he once led, the helmsman requests his captain's permission to hold the rear. Luffy agrees on a single term, that the fish-man rejoin the crew once they arrive at Wano Country, and the Sun Pirates together raise a mighty current that hurls the Sunny well past the pursuing fleet.
Away on Funwari Island, a contented, shrunken Big Mom lies in a daze, oblivious to Perospero's news about the Fire Tank Pirates slipping away. Grasping that the wreck was a feint, the enemy fleet resumes the chase, with Wadatsumi absorbing cannon fire and apologizing for his old misdeeds on Fish-Man Island. Aladine wrestles Oven and is beaten down, so the helmsman plunges in to catch his comrade and insists they all live through this. As the Yonko speeds toward Cacao Island longing to harvest Luffy's soul, Bege's group sails off aboard a Tarte. The fish-men then whip up a whirlpool and a swelling current, and from his vantage overhead, Morgans cheers, certain a Pirate King will emerge from one of the Worst Generation.
