Summary

King's earlier strike has wiped every recollection from Charlotte Linlin, leaving her unable to recall even who she is. Tony Tony Chopper, eager to keep her from learning that she once ruled as an Emperor, feeds her a made-up identity and tells her she answers to Olin, a story she accepts without question.

Far away inside the shogun's mansion, Orochi entertains his guests with Wano's old ghost legend and the prophecy attached to it. With two decades passed since Kouzuki Oden's execution, he warns, the Nine Red Scabbards are fated to rise again as vengeful spirits and reclaim power for the Kouzuki line. He already knows that outsiders named Zorojuro and Sangoro have slipped into the country and links them to Kin'emon. His audience privately judges him unhinged and chokes back their laughter to avoid provoking him.

Key Events

Young Toko breaks the tense silence by laughing openly and unrestrained, ignoring everyone's attempts to quiet her. Furious, Orochi moves to harm the child, only for Komurasaki to intervene with a slap to his cheek. The oiran then declines to kneel before him and announces that she was born the daughter of a samurai.

Enraged that his prized beauty has betrayed him, Orochi shifts into a towering eight-headed serpent through his Devil Fruit. Komurasaki still refuses to beg forgiveness. The shogun loses all control, lashing out at helpless guests with his extra heads before sinking his fangs into Komurasaki and crushing her in his jaws. Nico Robin spirits Toko to safety but is hemmed in by the Oniwabanshu ninja, until Brook drives them off by posing as a phantom.

Notes

The adaptation expands several moments beyond the manga. Once Big Mom stirs awake, Chopper recalls their prior clash and silences Tama before she can blurt the name, then invents O-Lin on the spot. Orochi quotes Toki's dying words while cautioning his guests about the Scabbards, and Robin is shown catching Toko after the slap. The serpent transformation receives extended detail, and Kyoshiro, gripping his blade, flashes a sinister grin, cackles wildly, and slashes the frame to summon the To Be Continued card.
