Long Summary
Luffy calls the Five Elders and introduces himself while simultaneously confirming that he and his crew are allies of Dr. Vegapunk, and if they care about York’s safety, they should withdraw their fleet from the shore. Mars asks Luffy who is currently alive with him in the Labophase, but just as Luffy is about to tell him, Robin forces him to stop, telling him that they can’t give the enemy any information about their status. Luffy apologizes and asks if they will back down, but Usopp tells him to quit dreaming.

Saturn says that they need to protect three things: York, Punk Records, and the power plant needed to produce the Mother Flame; everything else is expendable. Doberman reminds Saturn that several of their Cipher Pol agents are still on the island, but Saturn explains that he is considering the worst case scenario and that they need to prioritize the safety of the most important things to them. He does add, however, that Doberman should consider humans no different from insects; if their numbers shrink, they will replenish over time. Ultimately, Doberman accepts Saturn’s wishes.

Back in the Labophase, York tells everyone that if they hurt her now that she’s made a deal with the World Government, Egghead will be completely destroyed just like Ohara. Her words, however, earns her a smack on the head by Nami, who Zoro tries to calm down. Chopper asks Robin if her injuries have recovered and she confirms. While that is going on, Kaku is seen resting from his own injuries, Luffy and Bonney are eating, and Usopp is trying to get in contact with the underground basement. Lucci notes that both Shaka and Pythagoras have been destroyed while Lilith, Edison, and Atlas are heavily injured. Kaku asks him what he’s doing and Lucci simply says he’s talking to himself.
