Long Summary
Chopper was running around scared and Robin is seen in what appears to be the ruins. Zoro on the otherhand, is seen talking to himself about his Flying Blade attack and he tried it out on a bird attempting to attack him. although he said the attack wasn't ready, he was looking forward to testing it out. Chopper running scared is actually being chased by the Enforcers. Robin still at the ruins, is approached by an Enforcer who tells her to go back because that route led to God's shrine. Robin, upset at the Enforcer for breaking some part of the ruins, asked what the Enforcer wanted. Upset that Robin disregarded him, the Enforcer intended to defeat Robin with his axe dial but Robin defeated him with Seis Fleur: Twist.

Zoro, still making his way through the forest is attacked by a shandian warrior and Zoro punched him, knocking him out. In that moment, Braham killed an Enforcer and proceeded to fight Zoro. Zoro initially tried to ignore the fight since Braham was not a priest however, when Braham's attacks continued, Zoro prepared to fight him saying, he is glad Braham is not a second-rate flunkie. The Shandian warriors and the Enforcers are now engaged in battle, so is Braham and Zoro. Zoro, was initially having problems with fighting Braham because of the skate-like waver and light shining pistols that Braham has, making it a long-range battle. as the fight continues, Zoro decides to try his new technique. With Ittouryu - Sanjuuroku Pound Hou, Zoro defeated Braham and commented to himself about accepting the survival game.

Chopper, wailing about being left by the others found himself at the ruins and congratulated himself on being smart. Meanwhile, Gedatsu was in the same area and Chopper did not notice him. Luffy and Wiper continue their face-off and Wiper was shooting cannons at Luffy which Luffy rebounded using Gomu Gomu No Fuusen. Enel has visited the SH ship and Sanji attempted at attacking but was defeated by Enel's blast of lightning. Enel stated he had come without the intention of fighting and refered to Sanji as a foolish man. Gan Fall asked what his purpose of visit was, but Enel just told him it's been long since they met, as a way of greeting him.
