Chapter 1017

Queen demands to know who Tama is and where Bao Huang went, and the frightened girl faints before Usopp and Nami rush to revive her. On the fourth floor, Jinbe holds his own against Who's-Who, explaining he never expected a fair duel given the alliance's smaller numbers. As Franky and Inuarashi struggle with reinforced opponents, the Gifters surge toward the Live Floor to punish the defectors. Roused by her friends, Tama broadcasts to every Gifter she fed kibi dango, declaring them allies of Luffy and Momonosuke and urging them to bring down Kaidou.

Across the island, tamed Gifters like Briscola, Hamlet, and Poker turn on the remaining Beasts Pirates, baffling CP0 and the crew alike. Realizing Tama caused it, Queen tries to blast her group but is stopped by Sanji, whom he recognizes as Judge's son and a fellow link to the old MADS research team before shifting to his hybrid form. Nearby, Miyagi and Tristan tend to Zoro alongside a Rumble Ball side effect that has shrunk Chopper into the elderly-talking "Babyjiji" form, and Miyagi offers Zoro a Zou medicine that heals instantly but doubles later pain. Below, Jinbe identifies Who's-Who's Six Powers techniques, and the Tobiroppo confirms he is a former CP9 agent who lost everything twelve years ago when the Gomu Gomu no Mi was stolen on his watch.

Luffy is being resuscitated aboard the Polar Tang. Tama orders the kibi dango Gifters to switch sides, and they begin attacking their former crewmates. Queen is stopped by Sanji and transforms to fight him, and it is revealed Queen once belonged to MADS alongside Sanji's father. Miyagi and Tristan treat Zoro, whose new Rumble Ball side effect has reduced Chopper to the Babyjiji form. Who's-Who fights Jinbe with Six Powers and is exposed as a former CP9 member imprisoned for failing to guard the Gomu Gomu no Mi.

The chapter ties Who's-Who's history directly to Luffy's Devil Fruit, planting a thread that pays off later. The cover request shows a chimpanzee solving puzzles using Buggy's detached body. The installment is part of the Wano Country Arc.
