Long Summary
Happy to see each other, Whitebeard and Roger began to clash, and their crews also started battling each other. The battle lasted for a total of three days after which a ceasefire ended the battle. A gift exchange was carried out on the fourth day, and Shanks and Buggy appeared frightened by Teach, who had allegedly never slept in his life.

Roger meets with Whitebeard and Oden, amazed that Oden could read a Poneglyph. Roger originally thought that he had reached the end of the Grand Line on Lodestar Island, but since his Log Pose stopped working on the island, he deduced that there was a final island after that. He heard that the location of the final island was written in the Poneglyphs. Roger asked to borrow Oden for a year to reach the final island.

Whitebeard originally refused, but Oden agreed, determined to find the final island of the Grand Line. He decided to part ways with Whitebeard and join the Roger Pirates with Toki and his baby children. Izou stayed with Whitebeard while Inuarashi and Nekomamushi snuck onboard Roger's ship as stowaways.

The Roger Pirates stopped at Jaya and Oden stole food from the stores, unaware that it was a lawless town filled with violent criminals. The townspeople retaliated against Oden and blew him up with a grenade, but Oden managed to fight them off. At the end of the day, Oden used the stolen ingredients to make oden stew for his crew, who enjoyed the dish.
