"Sabo Returns - The Shocking Truth to Be Told!" is the 1117th episode of the One Piece anime.
Short Summary[]
After Sabo makes his report about his mission to Mary Geoise, he begins his story to Dragon and Ivankov about what happened. As the flashback begins, the Revolutionary Army began their attack, freeing the slaves and dealing with the opposition from the World Government forces. Meanwhile, Charlos plans a second attempt to capture Princess Shirahoshi and King Cobra prepares for his meeting with the Five Elders.
Long Summary[]
While meeting with Dragon and Ivankov, Sabo celebrates their partial success at the Levely, stating that they have succeeded in prompting a revolution in eight different nations. Each of these nations have stopped paying their Heavenly Tributes, and the Revolutionary Army has additionally attacked World Government suppliers to lay siege on Mary Geoise. However, they lament the assassination of Cobra, whom they deemed a benevolent and competent king. First mention of the God's Knights is made by Dragon.
Sabo explains the events of the Levely. As Revolutionary Army attacked Mary Geoise, Karasu, Lindbergh, and Morley free the World Nobles' slaves, instructing them to meet at the east side of town to be evacuated out of the town. However, Karasu entered battle with Fujitora, and Ryokugyu similarly confronted Morley. While Fujitora and Ryokugyu each attempted to unleash attacks against them, they had to do so without harming the World Nobles. Jabra, Kalifa, Blueno, Kumadori, and Fukurou watched the chaos.
As the battle occurs outside, Sabo snuck inside Pangea Castle in search of the keys to the slaves' collars. However, he learned that Charlos is attempting again to enslave Shirahoshi, this time using Kuma to do his bidding. Enraged by this, Sabo immediately changed his objectives, setting out to rescue Kuma.
Meanwhile, Cobra prepared to meet the Five Elders. His bodyguards, Pell and Chaka, were denied entry in the meeting, with only Cobra allowed to attend.
