"Catch Up with Luffy! The Straw Hat Pirates' All-Out War" is the 268th episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
The Straw Hat Pirates enter an all-out war to catch up with Luffy.

The Watchdog Unit of the Law show up to stop them and the foremen of Galley-La Company stay behind to fight.

Long Summary
Luffy being surrounded by thousands of Marines corner him on a cliff, the Big Bazooka units fire at Luffy making him fall off the cliff. The Marines find Luffy hanging off the cliff, trying to make him fall to his death by trying to step on his fingers. But the cliff collapses and Luffy starts running on top of the falling Marines. The Marine who didn't fall tries to shoot down Luffy while he runs away.

Zoro and Sanji are arguing which one of them is better. The Marines notice Sogeking and Chopper and shoot the Rocket Man, but stop firing once they find out that Kokoro, Chimney and Gonbe were hostages (to trick the Marines). Nami makes a cloud in the sky and uses Thunderbolt Tempo to take out the most of the Marines plus Zoro and Sanji. So the Straw Hats (excluding Nico Robin) try to catch up with Luffy. Luffy is still fighting with the Marines, and notice that some Marines are leaving to stop the pirates at the Main Island front gate. Luffy now knows that his crew, Franky Family and Galley-La Company have arrived.

Zoro noticed that they are being followed by the Watchdog Unit of the Law and then are surrounded by the Marines. Sodom and Gomorrah come barging in with the Galley-La Company and Franky Family. Using his ropes, Paulie helps the Straw Hats get on. Galley-La go and fight the Marines, so they let the Straw Hats focus on CP9.

Spandam explains how he knew that Robin was coming to Water 7 by Aokiji, also allowing him to use the Buster Call. Robin gets punched for asking Spandam why Aokiji gave permission for the Buster call. Robin is reminded of her past by Spandam.
