Short Summary
The dragon Luffy encountered introduces himself as Momonosuke. It is revealed that he was transformed into a dragon after eating an imperfect Devil Fruit synthesized by Dr. Vegapunk. Momonosuke tells Luffy that he overheard Caesar Clown saying that the experiments he is performing on the kidnapped children will kill all of the children within five years if he is allowed to continue, and the two of them decide to escape the trash disposal area. Suddenly, Momonosuke sees a hallucination of Doflamingo and loses control of himself. He flies upwards by grabbing on clouds, while Luffy grabs on and rides him.

In section B, Usopp, Kinemon, and Brook are running around searching for Momonosuke, as well as seastone handcuffs at Robin's request. Usopp is worried about Nami and the rest of the group because he is not there to protect them. However he feels that they will be fine because Zoro is with them. In section D, Smoker appears to have the upper hand in his fight with Vergo, after landing another blow hardened by Haki. Outside Biscuits Room, Tashigi and the other G-5 Marines continue to run from Shinokuni, with Sanji helping by kicking away the Marines who are about to be caught in the gas.

In Biscuits Room, Nami and Chopper are being covered in snow from the blizzard created by Monet's Devil Fruit ability. Robin tries to protect Mocha from the other children, but is attacked by Monet, who impales her through the shoulder with a saber. Zoro says he will fight Monet as she is a Logia user, and asks the others to go on ahead and stop the berserk children.
