Tama is one brave girl for sneaking into Onigashima. Now that Usopp and Nami are safe for the moment, what is Tama planning to do?

Yamato manages to get away with Shinobu and Momonosuke, but aside from one-shotting a giant (which has been done many times already), is Yamato going to do anything significant aside from being Momonosuke’s babysitter? This chapter does hint that Yamato possesses a Devil Fruit power. Sasaki has yet to be fully incapacitated, so I guess it’s up to Franky to correct Denjiro’s error.

This chapter also shows the current whereabouts of Law, Kid, and Killer. Law finds a poneglyph, and Kid and Killer are ahead of Luffy’s group, which is fine because Kid and Killer can thin out the enemy forces. My question is where are the rest of the Heart and Kid Pirates?

As for the Scabbards, the fight is not in their favor and Kaido is turning the tables on them.

Big Mom is back in the Skull Dome and she plans to go to the roof, which is bad. Someone strong has to keep her occupied so it’s up to Marco to stop her. The alliance is nowhere close to stopping the Ice Oni virus, so how many chapters it will be before the Ice Oni threat is resolved?

Luffy, Jinbe, and Sanji have gone one step closer to the roof, but something has gotten Sanji’s attention. And why do I have a bad feeling about this?
