Long Summary
Robin marches to Black Maria to fight her after Sanji called for help as Brook frees Sanji from Black Maria's webs by freezing the webs then cutting them with his sword. Sanji thanks Brook for his help then informs them he shall go help Kin'emon and the other Scabbards remarking he doesn't see himself winning this battle. As Sanji is leaving, Robin thanks him for relying on her to help him and it made her happy, Sanji's eyes turn into hearts, and he gets distracted and slides on the ice hitting a wall before getting up and heading to help The Nine Scabbards in the Treasure Repository.

Bao Huang announces she has spotted Yamato, Shinobu, and Momonosuke in the forbidden storehouse. Yamato finds and destroys the Mary mouse in the storehouse and tells Shinobu and Momonosuke the storehouse isn't safe anymore as a hoard of Kaidou's officers gather outside the entrance. Yamato hides Momonosuke in his clothes as he and Shinobu break the door and battle the officers looking for another place plain of sight.

Sanji finds out the location of Kin'emon and the others from a defeated officer and hesitates on whether to help Shinobu and Yamato or to help Kin'emon and the others before deciding to head down a random alley, so he doesn't have to choose.

Near the Skull Dome's entrance, Carrot gets visibly angrier after Perospero defeated Wanda. Perospero comments that they are all fighting for their lives, and she should stop holding unjust grudges against people like Pedro. Carrot vows to defeat him with the Electro Pedro taught her. Perospero taunts her with Pedro's death before she charges at him with Electro, Perospero blocks her attack with a candy shield, but she cuts through it. He then creates Candy Armor around him, but Carrot heats up the candy, melting it with her Electro before cutting him with her fangs. Perospero drops to the ground and as Carrot launches at him with her Electro, clouds block the moonlight making her unable to use her Sulong form. Perospero then defeats her and tells her if she never wanted Pedro to die, they should have stayed on Zou and walks away.

On the roof, Kaidou reveals his hybrid form to Luffy, Kid, Law, Killer and Zoro. Luffy informs Zoro he will need a minute rest to regenerate his Haki and goes to sleep. Killer attempts to cut Kaidou but notices that his skin has become harder than before as Kaidou launches him away.

Jack informs Black Maria he will head to kill the Scabbards and Black Maria decides to fight Robin in an attempt to capture her.

Anime Notes

 * The anime adds the following:
 * Yamato noticing and capturing the Mary mouse is seen.
 * Carrot fighting against Perospero before losing her Sulong form (due to the full moon being covered by clouds).


 * Kaidou's Human-Beast Form is fully shown earlier in the anime. In the manga it wasn't shown until after Luffy had recovered from Gear 4.
