Main Characters (5)
Summary
Midway through the bid to recover Koby, Garp's group is set upon by a former comrade, Kuzan, now disclosed as one of Teach's titanic captains, leaving Garp no choice but to engage. A flashback fills in the path that led the former admiral into Blackbeard's ranks. Elsewhere, Teach has personally broken the Heart Pirates, and Bepo is driven to swallow one of Chopper's drugs, entering Sulong form to drag Law clear.
Key Events
Kuzan ices Hibari solid and will not thaw her, standing revealed as the tenth and last titanic captain under Teach. The flashback recounts that roughly a year past his clash with Sakazuki, Kuzan ran into the crew at a bar, froze the men who provoked him, then drank with them and recounted his loss against Akainu. The pirates question him about a flame-scarred man rumored to carry a Road Poneglyph, and Teach ultimately extends an invitation to join, which Kuzan accepts in time, since he no longer serves the World Government.

Notes
In the present, Kuzan freezes Garp with Ice Ball, but Garp shatters free, tells him only the weak lose their direction, and drives him into the earth with Blue Hole. On Winner Island, Teach has wrecked the Polar Tang and presses for Law to be slain and his heart carried to Hachinosu. Because Chopper supplied an experimental drug, Bepo can reach Sulong without a full moon and wins enough time to seize Law and dive into the sea. The narration then announces the Heart Pirates soundly beaten. This Egghead Arc chapter opens on a color spread of the male Straw Hats resting among squirrels.
