Long Summary
Underneath the ruins of the Corrida Colosseum in Dressrosa, Nico Robin asks Monkey D. Luffy via Den Den Mushi who he is with now, prompting Luffy to reveal he is with Zoro and Trafalgar D. Water Law as Viola introduces herself and her father, Riku Dold III. The mention of Riku causes the Dwarves present to react with excitement as Robin notes there are five people in Luffy's group before beginning to list who is with her, only to stop in shock upon seeing Sabo and Koala standing far away. Koala leaps down as a grinning Sabo begins moving toward the surface. When Luffy asks her what is wrong, Robin states she is going to move toward the palace with Usopp and Rebecca.

At Luffy's location, Law asks him if he knows what he is going to do and points out how their goal was to destroy the SMILE Factory in order to provoke a conflict between Donquixote Doflamingo and Kaido before claiming that Kaido will turn his anger at losing his SMILEs to them if they kill Doflamingo now. When Law proclaims that they will have to fight an angry Yonko in person, Luffy states that this is not an issue now, surprising Law, before demanding to know what will happen to Dressrosa if he stops now. As Zoro sheathes his sword, Law and Luffy glare at each other.

Meanwhile, in the streets, the citizens of Dressrosa, armed with various weapons, hunt for the people whom Doflamingo placed bounties on. A Marine runs away from two citizens being controlled by Parasite, only to be saved by another Marine who binds the two men with a large chain. As the Marines escort several captured citizens away from the rest of the soldiers, Bastille asks Issho if they should be trying to capture Doflamingo, only for Issho to order him to tell all units to restrain as many rampaging people as possible and focus on the Straw Hat Pirates-Law alliance, shocking Bastille.

Back at the plateau, Luffy grabs Law and Zoro in either arm and states they will go, only for Law to remind him that he is still in seastone handcuffs. When Luffy claims they will come off on their own, Law angrily denies this as Viola states she will get the key. Law asks her if she knows where it is, prompting Viola to reveal she saw it when they were falling and state it must be somewhere on this plateau before stopping mid-sentence in surprise upon seeing Luffy running toward the edge of the plateau. When Zoro asks him how they will get there, Luffy proclaims they will go straight, shocking Law and Viola, the latter of whom expresses disbelief at the idea of Luffy jumping off the edge, before doing exactly that.

Elsewhere, near the hole in the Corrida Colosseum, several Marines express shock at the large amount of people coming out of the Colosseum as one of them theorizes they were the ones being forced to work at the underground port. Cavendish emerges from the Colosseum and wonders where Luffy is. Meanwhile, Maynard runs up to Bastille, who admonishes him for fighting the tournament despite not being ordered to do so. However, Maynard reveals that this allowed him to see what was occurring here and claims that arresting Doflamingo will make the world a little better before asking him where Issho is.

At the underground port, Koala boards one of the ships and notes she is glad to be back because she can conduct investigations without interference. Looking around the ship, Koala finds a chest filled with firearms and rips off a skull-and-crossbones sticker to reveal the seal of the Kingdom of Biggschots, prompting her to note that this trading ship from the kingdom was disguised as a pirate ship. Koala takes a picture of the chest before stating that this port seems to hold the secrets of many countries. Hearing voices, Koala presses herself against a wall as several men walk past while discussing what they will do if the Marines find out about their trade with Doflamingo. When one of the men states that they just need to destroy the evidence along with the ship, Koala gasps in surprise.

As the men prepare to destroy the ship, Koala leaps on top of the deck and proclaims that she will not let them do this before assuming a battle stance. Running forward, Koala kicks one of the men in the small of the back before elbowing another out of the way and spinning on her foot to deliver a chop to the neck of a third. Koala uppercuts a fourth before clenching her fist and punching a fifth in the gut, causing him to collapse.

In the city above, the citizens and Marines continue to attack each other against their will as Maynard asks Issho why they will not arrest Doflamingo despite his inability to maintain his status as a Shichibukai after this. Listening to the cries of the citizens and Marines around him, Issho notes the Marines have been doing the same thing over and over and states Maynard has been a member for a long time before asking him if he has been listening to these cries of anger all this time. Issho demands to know if the World Government believes it is God, shocking Maynard, who falls back as Issho asks him to honor his decisions.

Meanwhile, at the palace, Diamante notes that the Straw Hat Pirates and Law's target is the SMILE Factory, prompting Trebol to ask Doflamingo if they should not be protecting the factory right now. Pointing out how they cannot open the doors because they are made of Seastone, Doflamingo reveals he has the keys to the factory with him before cutting the keys to pieces, which shocks Baby 5 and Trebol, the latter of whom asks Doflamingo if he knows what he is doing. Doflamingo states that the enemy does not need hope as Lao G claims that he cannot believe Trebol could not protect a little girl like Sugar. Trebol tells Lao G to shut up because Sugar is not really a little girl before apologizing to Doflamingo because he did not think that someone with his hands and feet bound would be able to knock her out. Diamante notes that the same applies to the Mera Mera no Mi because he did not expect the second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army to be fighting in the tournament. Lao G tells Diamante and Trebol to not make excuses and calls them disgraceful.

However, Doflamingo states he is willing to let the past lie because he cannot change it even if he blames the two of them. As Trebol reprimands Lao G for trying to get them in trouble, Diamante states he will let Doflamingo forgive him if the latter insists before pointing out how the Marines are an obstacle and asking what they should do about Issho, prompting Doflamingo to reveal that he already talked with him and that the Marines will not pursue them before stating that Issho will die once they are done using him. Stating that there is no advantage in keeping him alive, Doflamingo notes that taking him out will not be easy as he and his subordinates drink from their glasses of wine.

In the city, the Marines are ordered to restrain those who are still out of control as several of them learn of their orders to pursue the Straw Hat Pirates and Law. Watching the Marines run past him alongside Senor Pink and Dellinger, Machvise notes that the Marines are not antagonizing them, prompting Senor Pink to wonder if they really want to treat Doflamingo as a Shichibukai as Dellinger theorizes that they feel threatened by the Birdcage. When Senor Pink expresses disbelief at Franky having still had the energy to run away and wonders where he went, Machvise points out how badly injured he was and claims he must have been taken out by the Parasite-controlled citizens and Marines by now. However, Senor Pink proclaims Franky was not that weak and asks Dellinger and Machvise if they did not feel his iron will. As Machvise and Dellinger express surprise, Senor Pink states that they must take him down for sure this time, prompting the women at his feet to proclaim he is hard-boiled. Elsewhere, Franky runs through the city with his shirt pulled over his head and notes that what he sees in the distance must be the SMILE Factory before proclaiming that it is almost asking to be shot at while laughing.

Falling from the sky, Luffy begins sucking in air as Machvise notices him. Luffy crashes into the ground and bounces off, prompting those present to leap back as Senor Pink catches the ladies surround him in either arm before telling them to stay back if they do not want to get hurt. As Luffy hurtles away, Machvise sees Law in his arm and yells his name while Senor Pink demands to know how Law could show his face around here after everything that has happened, with Dellinger noting that he barely remembers him. Luffy lands as Zoro leaps onto his feet, prompting the Marines and Donquixote Pirates subordinates to recognize them and Law. When Luffy notes this was the worst spot to land in, Law claims he will kill Luffy first once he gets out of these handcuffs as Zoro states there is no good place to land in this country because everyone is their enemy before telling them to run, prompting Luffy to agree.

Luffy and Zoro begin running away from the assembled soldiers, with several changes in direction along the way. Dellinger catches up to Luffy, who is carrying Law on his shoulder, and states that it is nice to see Law once again, prompting Luffy to ask Law if he knows him. As Law begins to explain why Luffy should not underestimate him, Dellinger disappears from sight before kicking at Luffy, who manages to leap away in time. However, Senor Pink catches Luffy by surprise by swimming in the ground underneath him and grabbing his legs before telling Machvise to attack. When Machvise appears in the air above them, Law tells Luffy to run because Machvise is a super weight human, prompting Luffy to tell Senor Pink to let go of his legs as Machvise uses 10-Ton Vise. Luffy manages to stretch himself far enough away for Machvise to miss his body, though his feet become pinned as he attempts to drag himself away.

Appearing near Luffy, a manically-grinning Dellinger proclaims that he will not miss this time before using Pistol High-Heel, only for Zoro to kick him in the back, causing Dellinger to stumble forward before accidentally kicking Machvise instead, which forces him off of Luffy's feet. As Zoro tells them to go, they are confronted by several warriors who intend to take their heads for Doflamingo's bounties. As they begin opening fire, Zoro rushes forward and effortlessly defeats those in his way while Luffy defeats the others with Gomu Gomu no Gatling. When more men and women confront them, Zoro wonders if it is okay to attack them because there are civilians present as well, prompting Luffy to attempt to use his Haoshoku Haki to incapacitate them. However, they are interrupted by Issho, who claims that he who shoots often will not hit the mark as several Marines follow him. As Issho stands before the trio, Zoro states he is the Marine admiral as Luffy recognizes him as the old gambling man.
