Titled "Shandia Rhythm," the chapter shows Enel crushing the last resistance in the ruins. Wyper rises again and again on sheer ancestral will, Zoro falls, and a frightened Nami makes a choice meant to keep her alive a little longer.
Summary
Shaken that his foe survived the Reject Dial, Wyper struggles upright while the recoil tears at his arm. Enel mocks him, then knocks him flat with his staff, shattering the Jet Dials holding the Seastone. By striking the drums on his back, the god conjures enormous beasts of pure electricity, a thirty-million-volt bird that runs Wyper through and a giant wolf that savages Zoro when the swordsman lunges for the Kairoseki. With both warriors down, Enel unleashes God's Judgement, blasting a crater into the ground. Terrified of sharing her crew's fate, Nami begs to be taken along, and Enel agrees, noting he despises those who refuse to yield to fear.
Key Events
Enel defeats both Zoro and Wyper, the latter revealed as a direct descendant of the Shandia warrior Kalgara. A childhood memory shows the Shandia Chief telling Wyper that Kalgara carried a hidden reason for wanting their home back, a reason tied to his greatest regret and to his people's centuries-long struggle to reclaim Shandora. The drums on Enel's back are exposed as tools for shaping huge animals out of electricity. Nami surrenders herself to Enel to survive. Elsewhere, Conis nears Angel Island on her waver while the White Berets brand the Straw Hats and Gan Fall as fugitives.
Notes
The cover continues Ace's Blackbeard search as he mistakenly attacks a local doctor, Kurotsuru, who shares Blackbeard's build and epithet. The chapter was adapted across Episode 181 and the start of Episode 182. The title fits the arc's recurring music motif.
