The chapter started in the concert of Brook while the Marines are blocked the crowd, preventing them from arresting Brook. Brook was rescued by Rosy Life Riders and they said it was an order from Shakky.

In the Grove 46, Fake Luffy was thinking on what to do to real Luffy but was intercepted because the Marines surrounded them. Fake Luffy ordered Caribou to open a path for them but Caribou thinks its too tall for an order and he killed a Marine. Fake Luffy angered saying Caribou didn't obey his orders, while Real Luffy is confused that why everyone is calling him boss. The Pacifistas suddenly appeared, the pirates were shocked that the Pacifistas came and said those are the human weapons in the Marineford War. Lip "Service" Doughty worth 88 million bounty is then crushed by a Pacifista. A crew then proclaimed that even Captain Doughty didn't stand a chance against the Pacifista.

The pirates were shocked because of the Pacifistas and said those are the human weapons in the Marineford War. Fake Luffy runs with his crew admitting that they can't defeat those highly armored Pacifistas. Sentoumaru suddenly appears in front of Fake Luffy. The crew of Fake Luffy was cheering for him calling "Boss 'Luffy' is gonna fight for us! Show us the power of 400 million!". Sentoumaru is confused on why they called that man Luffy, while Fake Luffy nervously asking Sentoumaru to give him a way out by telling him his heritage. Sentoumaru did not believe any of this and smashed Fake Luffy with his axe, while saying "'Straw Hat' isn't some piece of shit like you!". The pirate crew was shocked and Sentoumaru let PX-5 identify the person. He was "Three-Tongued" Demaro Black with 26 million bounty. The crew was shocked and angered Albion said that if that didn't happen, they will all be underling of the 26 million bounty rookie. Sentoumaru tells everybody that they were idiots to believe in the Fake Luffy and he will arrest them all. He also notices the real Luffy and let the PX-5 to attack him. With that attack Monkey D. Luffy was revealed to all people and they were shocked. Luffy was attacked again by PX-5 by laser, he dodged and claimed that it is "SLOW". He activates his Gear Second followed by an attack "Gomu Gomu no Jet Pistol" defeating PX-5 in one hit. Then he escaped and saw the real Zoro and Sanji which were then attacked by Pacifistas, but they easily defeated them. Luffy was glad that they are reunited.
