Monster vs Kumadori is the 408th chapter of One Piece, revealing Kalifa's soap-based Devil Fruit as she drains Nami, showing a berserk Chopper crush Kumadori in Monster Point, and ending with Luffy finally cornering Rob Lucci before Robin reaches the Bridge of Hesitation.
When the smoke from Nami's lightning clears, Kalifa emerges unharmed from a dissolving egg-shaped shell. Nami pieces together that her foe ate the Awa Awa no Mi, a soap fruit that lets her conjure bubbles from anywhere on her body. Kalifa wraps herself in a Soap Sheep and launches Hitsuji-gumo at Nami, the bubbles sapping the navigator's strength just as the earlier bath floor had. A few brushes of soap leave Nami's legs too slick to stand, anything Kalifa touches turning smooth and shiny.
Across the way, the rampaging Chopper hammers Kumadori into the floor again and again, then hauls his unconscious body to the balcony and hurls him toward the neighboring building. Franky recognizes the beast's hat as Chopper's own, but the monster simply tries to crush him. Kumadori's limp form crashes down among the agents in the square below.
In the undersea passage, Spandam berates Robin and orders Lucci to drag her along toward the Bridge of Hesitation and the Gates of Justice beyond. A distant voice calls Robin's name, unsettling Spandam, and she smiles. Lucci stays behind as Luffy kicks through a set of doors into a storage room, where Lucci greets him at last.
Kalifa's Devil Fruit is identified as the Awa Awa no Mi. Chopper, no longer in control of his Monster Point, involuntarily defeats Kumadori. Luffy catches up to Rob Lucci, setting their rematch in motion as Robin nears the Gates of Justice.
The chapter confirms Kalifa as a soap human via the Awa Awa no Mi and shows Chopper losing himself to his transformation while still beating Kumadori. Luffy's arrival before Lucci sets up the coming duel. The cover continues Miss Goldenweek's Operation: Meet Baroque Works with the dreams of Crocodile and Mr. 1.

When I first decided to commit to watching One Piece seriously, I knew I was embarking on one of anime's longest and most beloved series. With over 100...

The transformation everyone knows, the follow-up question nobody would touch. Why we made a smooth R&B track about the golden glow Dragon Ball never talks about....
