Cover Page: The Stories of the Self-Proclaimed Straw Hat Grand Fleet Vol. 37: Orlumbus Arc - "The 56 ship fleet Thief - A Tearful Departure 'Thank you For everything'"

Orlumbus and his fleet depart the Standing Kingdom as the king and his army attack them with cannon fire for stealing the fleet's ships.

In the New World, Big Mom contacts Kaidou and tells him that she intends to be the one to kill Luffy, saying that Kaidou still owes her a debt. Kaidou vows to kill Luffy before she can as the Marines intercept their conversation.

In Mary Geoise, Sterry is guided to the Empty Throne and told to make a pledge before it. Elsewhere, Charlos has one of his slaves attempt to capture Shirahoshi so he can make her his pet, with CP0 preventing anyone from intervening. Just then, Charlos is struck by another World Noble, none other than Donquixote Mjosgard, who states that he intends to repay the debt he owes the Neptune Family and the late Otohime no matter what.

Meanwhile, the Five Elders meet with a man resembling Shanks, who wishes to talk to them about a certain pirate.

At Whole Cake Island, Big Mom contacts Kaidou via Den Den Mushi, telling him to stay out of her way as she goes after Straw Hat Luffy, saying that she will be humiliated if she isn't the one to kill him. Kaidou refuses, citing his own grudge against Luffy and threatening to kill Big Mom if she interferes. Linlin then says that he owes her a great debt from a long time ago and insists that they cooperate on this like the "good old days".

At New Marineford, it is revealed that the Marines intercepted the two Emperors' conversation, with their signal being completely unencrypted, which they interpret as a challenge to come and stop them. Kizaru offers to head out to deal with the situation, but Sakazuki tells him to wait, as the strength of the armies of the samurai of Wano Country is unknown. At Red Port, Garp laughs off the threat of two Emperors meeting together even after mentioning that they both are going after his grandson Straw Hat Luffy, saying that the only ones who could stop it are all at the Levely. Gion tells him that Sakazuki said not to interfere, as Wano is outside their jurisdiction, but Hina remains worried. Hina then mentions that Big Mom and Kaidou are the reason why Garp is the Hero of the Navy. She also mentions "Rocks", who Garp states came from before Roger's time, and that if they were to return, it would be trouble. Garp then smiles and says that the current situation is going to be bigger than anyone can imagine.

At the Pangaea Castle in Mary Geoise, Sterry is brought before the Empty Throne and told to symbolically make a pledge before it. Sterry says that he wants to sit in it, but an aide says that none may do so, pointing out that the twenty weapons were the pledges of the "First Twenty" who founded the World Government. The First Twenty declared that none may sit in the Empty Throne, and that the world may not have one king. Sterry thinks that if he were to sit on it, he would be king of the world.

At the Mingling Plaza, Charlos has a giant slave grab Shirahoshi in front of everyone, planning to make her his pet, as Rebecca and Vivi shout at him to stop. Leo and Sai attempt to stop Charlos, only to be stopped by Rob Lucci and CP0, saying that whatever a god wants, they will get regardless of whether or not it makes sense. Neptune, enraged, prepares to attack CP0 and Charlos while declaring that he cannot bring his people to the surface, tearfully apologizing to Otohime in the process while Vivi says that the World Nobles are not humans at all. Just then, a figure appears and bashes Charlos' face in with a mace before apologizing and orders that Shirahoshi be set free. The figure then states that as a fellow World Noble, he is embarrassed by Charlos' actions and for allowing him to pollute the plaza with fear. The figure then states that while Neptune may not remember him, he owes the Ryugu Kingdom a great debt, especially to Otohime, revealing himself to be Mjosgard. Mjosgard then says that Otohime showed him the error of his ways and made him into a human. Thus, he will support their efforts with all his might.

Meanwhile, the Five Elders prepare to meet with a hooded figure alone and order their guards to leave. Their guest, who resembles Shanks, wishes to talk with them about "a certain pirate".
