Raid on Onigashima

The Raid on Onigashima was a battle that took place on the island of Onigashima in Wano Country during that year's Fire Festival. The invading forces were led by the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance, with the objective of defeating the Beasts Pirates, led by Kaidou of the Four Emperors and his allies, including Shogun Kurozumi Orochi and recent ally, fellow Emperor Big Mom.

They succeeded in their goal after many epic battles and with their victory Wano was finally free from 20 years of tyranny and totally ruined Kaidou's sinister plot thanks to one of the alliance's main leaders Monkey D. Luffy.

Battling after 20 years of waiting
The Nine Red Scabbards fought valiantly on the roof of the Skull Dome, but the samurai ultimately fell before Kaidou's superior might, so their leader Kin'emon begged his ally and friend Monkey D. Luffy captain of the Straw Hat Pirates to carry the weight of 20 years of Wano's suffering and defeat Kaidou in their stead, which Luffy agreed to without hesitation. To the surprise of both Kaidou and Big Mom Luffy's attack actually did sufficient harm to the Governor-General of the Beasts Pirates and to their anger Luffy once again declared he would be the next Pirate King. Despite being infected by the artificial virus Ice Oni, the former yakuza boss Hyogoro defeated all the members of the Orochi Oniwabanshu and the Mimawarigumi, being cured shortly afterwards by Chopper the Straw Hat's doctor. The All-Star Queen's callous sacrifice of their lives and Chopper's benevolence in saving them from Ice Oni caused many of the Waiters and Pleasures of the Beasts Pirates to switch sides, giving the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance some much-needed support. Though they landed a few hits and caused some significant damage, Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Trafalgar Law, Eustass Kid and Killer realized that Kaidou and Big Mom were too powerful together and their only chance at winning was if they could separate the two, so they separated Big Mom from her special Homies and throw her off the roof.Napoleon and Prometheus manage to save Big Mom from falling into the sea and she returned to the Skull Dome to hunt down her enemies for revenge. Big Mom then created a new special Homie named Hera to replace Zeus because she was tired of his constant failures lately.

Rampage of the Numbers
The enormous Numbers, with their monstrous physical strength, proved to be a great problem for the alliance. Eventually, Zanki, Jaki, Goki, Rokki, Nangi, Hatcha, Kunyun and Juki were all defeated, while Inbi and Fuga defected thanks to the influence of Scratchmen Apoo, who desired to take down the one who won the war and Yamato, the son of Kaidou, respectively.

Confronting Kanjuro for his treachery
After Kurozumi Kanjuro was exposed as the spy, Kiku asked him if there was any real companionship from their time together; Kanjuro took what she said as a complement to his acting skills, showing he had no remorse in betraying the Scabbards. This hurt Kiku even more as she fights Kanjuro. The rest of the Scabbards join in and knock him out Kanjuro recovered shorty then tormented his former comrades by using his paint powers to create a fake Kozuki Oden, resulting in the death of Ashura Doji, but he was critically injured by Kin'emon. Before passing out, Kanjuro painted a fiery creature called Kazenbo that was sent to detonate all the explosives in the Skull Dome's basement. However, this plot was foiled thanks to the interference of Yamato.

Fighting the Tobiroppo
A rampaging Big Mom severally wounded two of the Tobiroppo Page One and Ulti, the former being defeated,but Ulti got back up and attacked Usopp, and Nami and Tama, however, Nami knocked out Ulti after Zeus permanently fused with her weather-controlling staff, giving her the extra power, she needed to defeat her. Tama with the help of Nami, Usopp, Speed, Gazelleman and Daifugo, all the SMILE users who ate her special dango became the child's obedient servants and, on her order, attacked their ex-crewmembers. This act played a key role in turning the tide of the battle in the alliance's favor. The Tobiroppo member and highly skilled former CP9 agent Who's-Who, despite all his strength and ferocity, was ultimately defeated by Jinbe the former Warlord and the Straw Hats' new helmsman. The Tobiroppo Sasaki proved to be a worthy adversary for Franky and even managed to heavily damage the durable mech-suit General Franky, but in the end, Franky emerged victorious when he fired a laser beam at Sasaki's major weak spot: his large belly. The Tobiroppo Black Maria underestimated Nico Robin and it cost her dearly, as Robin saw through all of Black Maria's tricks, penetrated her defenses, and after using new fighting techniques she learned from her friends in the Revolutionary Army, she eventually wore Black Maria down then finished her opponent off with Grand Jacuzzi Clutch. Brook did his share by defeating all of Black Maria's subordinates and help kept CP0 from capturing Robin.

Taking on the All-Stars
Marco, the former 1st Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, fought bravely, but even he had difficulty fighting two All-Stars at once. Marco then decided it was about time to let the next generation of pirates take the stage, so he let two Straw Hats take his place while went to protect his other allies. Just when it seemed all hope was lost for Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, the clouds cleared up due to a Haoshoku clash between Kaidou and Luffy, and the full moon allowed them to transform into their Sulong forms once more, allowing them to simultaneously defeat the All-Star Jack and the Charlotte Family's eldest son, Perospero, avenging the death of Pedro on Whole Cake Island caused by Perospero's interference. Queen, a brilliant scientist and a cybernetically-enhanced warrior with a brachiosaurus Devil Fruit met his match in Sanji after he fully awakened the same genetic modifications as his super-powered siblings by wearing his Raid Suit multiple times. By combining his massively increased strength & speed, new exoskeleton, and Busoshoku Haki to create a powerful new technique called Ifrit Jambe, Sanji was able to overwhelm the All-Star and send him flying off of Onigashima. The strongest All-Star and Kaidou's right-hand man King, proved a formidable opponent for Zoro due to his pteranodon Devil Fruit, fire-controlling abilities, and the immense toughness and vitality provided by his lunarian heritage. However, thanks to the properties of the legendary Haki-powered sword Enma and his recently discovered Haoshoku Haki, Zoro was finally able to defeat King with his newly developed King of Hell Three Sword Style and cut off his right wing in the process, causing the All-Star to fall off Onigashima.

Doing what they can to help
Knowing he could not do anything to help as a child, Oden's son Kozuki Momonosuke asked Shinobu to use her power to turn him into an adult. This allowed him to transform into a giant pink dragon so he could fly Luffy back to the battlefield after he was temporally indisposed and then use his new power to create flame clouds to prevent Onigashima from landing on the Flower Capital and instead change its course to have safely land near the city. Thanks to a miscalculation from his opponent, Killer defeated Basil Hawkins as revenge for his earlier betrayal, slicing off his left arm in the process. Izou, the former 16th Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, and Maha, an elite agent of CP0, engaged in a dual which ended in a double knockout, causing the former's death and causing CP0 to fail at capturing Robin. Raizo won his duel against fellow ninja veteran Fukurokuju through his remarkable endurance. Despite being exhausted by the fight, he recruited the help of Jinbe and mustered enough strength to flood Onigashima with water through the power of his scroll-based Devil Fruit ability, which prevented the deaths of their allies by extinguishing the fires caused byKurozumi Orochi, Kazenbo, and King.X Drake dealt serious damage to a CPO agent but was then incapacitated by a Shigan, while Apoo realized he was no match against the might of two CPO agents and retreated. In a final attempt to take his revenge, Orochi attacked Oden's daughter, Kozuki Hiyori, but was stopped by the timely arrival of Denjiro, who sliced off Orochi's last remaining head.

The final clash with the Emperors
After lengthy and difficult battles, against all odds, what was thought to be impossible happened; two of the Four Emperors, Kaidou and Big Mom, were defeated by three pirate captains of the Worst Generation, all of whom achieved Devil Fruit awakening. Kid and Law pushed themselves beyond their limits during their battle with the queen of Totto Land. Still, they found a way to exploit the weakness of her Soru Soru no Mi and attacked Big Mom with every ounce of power they had left to send her crashing into the ground with tremendous force. Luffy chipped away at Kaidou's legendary durability after he became an advanced user of all three forms of Haki and using his new powers in creative and unpredictable ways. Despite all of Kaidou's powerful, unrelenting attacks, he was finally able to land a mighty punch with his giant fist, causing Kaidou to fall so hard the collision made a massive crater leading into an underground chamber filled with magma, where both Kaidou and Big Mom’s unconscious bodies ended up. This event caused a volcanic eruption where Onigashima once stood, signifying both their defeat and the official end of their era as rulers of the sea.

Progress
The following is a list of status updates provided by CP0 with the help of the Mary network.

Aftermath
In the end, the raid was a total victory with Kurozumi Orochi being dethroned and presumably deceased, meanwhile the Beasts Pirates' regime was officially over because of the leader Kaidou being defeated at the hands Monkey D. Luffy, causing many of the Beasts Pirates to flee or be imprisoned in Udon and some of them had defected  to the alliance's side during the battle either because of Chopper saving them from the biological weapon Ice Oni or because they were tamed by Tama. Also, CP0 agent Guernica also retreated via Geppo so he could report to the World Government everything that happened during the battle. Kaidou's precious New Onigashima Project that he had been working on for decades was now totally in shambles and Onigashima itself had landed near the Flower Capital instead of on top of the city as Kaidou intended thanks to the power of Dr. Vegapunk's Artificial Devil Fruit and Kaidou's once mighty fortress, the Skull Dome was now in ruins. With all enemy forces vanquished, the rightful heir of Wano, Kozuki Momonosuke became the new shogun and announce to his subjects that Kaidou and Orochi will no longer terrorize them. After hearing this the people of Wano rejoiced at their regained freedom.

Kaidou's son Yamato, who had defected from the Beasts Pirates and is both a great admirer of the legendary samurai Kozuki Oden and a good friend of the late Portgas D. Ace desires to join the Straw Hat Pirates.

Days later, the children of Wano receive new school teachers who told them the true heroic tales of Kozuki Oden, everyone in Wano heard about of the warrior Joy Boy and the tale of how he defeated Kaidou (As Luffy asked Momonosuke to not give his name to the people of Wano) with the citizens compering his heroism to Shimotsuki Ryuma, shrines were planned to be built so that Oden could finally be laid to rest, along with the members of the alliance that gave their lives for the rebellion, including Shimotsuki Yasuie, Ashura Doji and Izou. Everyone in Wano also soon learned of Komurasaki and Kyoshiro's true identities as Kozuki Hiyori and Denjiro. Naturally, news of Kaidou and Big Mom's defeat soon spread across the seas; it was then before the banquet to celebrate the alliance's victory that Scratchmen Apoo arrived and showed those present the newspaper, which named the new Emperors of the Sea as well as an update on everyone's new bounties. It was announced to the whole world that "Straw Hat" Luffy and Buggy the "Star Clown" had replaced Big Mom and Kaidou as Emperors. Additionally, Luffy, Trafalgar Law and Eustass Kid had been assigned bounties of 3,000,000,000 each. To the dismay of the Five Elders, Luffy also got a new picture in his wanted poster showing the whole world his awakened form, and the Marines did not receive the order to remove the initial D in his name. Luffy's new status as an Emperor also involuntary helped increase his sworn brother Sabo's influence on to his many increasing number of followers.

After revealing himself to still be alive, the former shogun Kozuki Sukiyaki confirmed to Nico Robin that the ancient weapon Pluton was indeed in hidden Wano as she learned in Arabasta 2 years ago, he took her and Law several hundred feet below the capital to show them a sunken part of Wano and explained that as soon as Wano opened its borders, the power of Pluton would be unleashed. With this new knowledge Law asked why Oden wanted to open the country to begin with Sukiyaki simply saying he did not know as he had no idea what Oden learned during his journey in the outside word. Marine Adrmiral Ryokugyu came to Wano to capture Luffy who was still recovering from his extraordinary fight with Kaidou, so Momonosuke, the Scabbards, Shinobu and Yamato intercepted him. Just as Ryokugyu was about to win, he decided to retreat for now because he sensed the powerful Haoshoku Haki emitted from "Red-Haired" Shanks who was just outside Wano's borders who then also left after the crises was averted.
