Chapter 771

Zoro fights on against Pica with Elizabello II offering his King Punch, though the swordsman tells him to hold it for later as he reads Pica's true aim. Nearby, Lao G overwhelms Chinjao with his age-based Joi Ken style, but the old man is more fixated on Sai's supposed engagement to Baby 5. Sai protests that he is already promised to Uholisia of the Niho Navy, a quarrel that lets Lao G's soul nearly drift to heaven until Baby 5 calls him back. When Sai jokingly wishes Baby 5 would die, she turns her arm into a gun against her own head, declaring she will do anything he asks.

Baby 5 recalls being cast out in the mountains by her own mother's group as a burden, which left her desperate to be needed. As she prepares to shoot herself and Sai scrambles to stop her, Chinjao charges in to punish the shame Sai has brought the navy, only for Sai to bend the old man's legendary head with a kick. Rather than rage, Chinjao weeps with pride that his grandson has unlocked the full Hasshoken art, naming his leg Kiryu Kirikugi and ceding the Happo Navy to him. Lao G then strikes Chinjao down and reveals the secret of his Qigong-fueled strength, vowing to drag Baby 5 back to Doflamingo. Spurred on, Sai promises to marry her if he wins and lands a Haki-charged Kiryu Kirikugi kick that crushes Lao G into a crater.

Sai's Armament Haki is confirmed, and by bending Chinjao's head he earns the title of Don. Baby 5's past is revealed, her hunger to be useful rooted in her mother's abandonment. Lao G uses Jio-Ken to bulk up his muscle, defeats Chinjao, and is then beaten by Sai, who agrees to marry Baby 5 and leaves her unwilling to fight further.
