Summary
Three other ships, along with the Moby Dick, infiltrated the bay. Whitebeard himself from the deck of the Mody Dick, commenting that it would be better if his son, Fire Fist Ace, is alright.

Ivankov asks Luffy if Monkey D. Dragon will come and save Ace, as he would never let his son get killed. Luffy replies that although his father is Dragon, Ace's father is in fact Gol D. Roger.

Ace then remembers all the events that led him to being the Whitebeard pirates Second Division commander. (Parting with Luffy, his days of him as the captain of the Spade Pirates], a meeting he had with Shanks in a winter island, etc.)

Anime and Manga diferences

 * In this episode, Thatch and Ace are seen fighting the Decalvan Brothers, that didn't happen in the manga.
 * Even though it is mentioned that Thatch was killed by Teach, how exactly he killed him was never mentioned in the manga, in the anime, Teach stabs him in the back.

Trivia

 * When Ace meets Shanks, it can be seen that Shanks still has his two arms, even though he lost his left arm to the Lord of the Coast. This however, appears to be an error.
 * In earlier episodes, Whitebeard doesn't laugh as in the manga (his Gurarara laught). This is the first time he laughs as in the manga.
