==Short Summary==
As Cobra is stunned by Imu's appearance as Imu reveals about the significance of the Will of D. and the spreading of the Poneglyphs across the world and the actions that have occurred since then due to Lili's actions. Knowing they will not let him live, Cobra reveals Lili's full name as "Nefertari D. Lili". Sabo attempts to intervene to save Cobra from Imu and the Five Elders, but due to being overpowered he is forced to flee alone, but not before Cobra tells him his final request. 
However, Wapol had witnessed this knowing his life is in danger and runs away. As the Levely is coming to an end, Vivi is being held captive by CP0. That is when Wapol bursts through wall allowing Vivi to escape by jumping into Wapol's mouth.
==Long Summary==
Imu says to a speechless Cobra that they have two things they wish to say to Cobra and only one thing to ask of him. Hearing Imu's name, Cobra comments how similar it is to one of the First Twenty. Imu, however, refuses to confirm his suspicions.
Imu tells Cobra that “D.” is the name of their opposers, but none of the people in the world that bear it know of its importance nowadays. Imu says that this recent development's roots goes way back then, which they say is because of a mistake Nefertari Lili made 800 years ago, on par with the scholars of Ohara investigating the Void Century. Imu says that it was all Lili’s fault the Poneglyphs were unleashed onto the world, and why pirates use them to search for treasure. Because Imu considers the release of the Poneglyphs the “worst possible outcome” for the First Twenty, they wonder if it was all part of some larger plan. As the Five Elders ready their weapons, Imu tells him that the truth exists in the letter Lili left, and they tell Cobra to address Lili by her full name as written on said letter. Realizing he will not leave the room alive, Cobra announces that Lili’s name is “Nefertari D. Lili”. In an instant, Imu stabs Cobra with what seems to be an arrow-shaped tail.
Just then, Sabo appears, having been eavesdropping on the conversation, and attacks the Five Elders with Hiken and follows up with Otebisha, but his attack is blocked by the Imu, having all transformed into large creatures. Sabo laments his inability to destroy all of them as a picture of him is taken standing above Cobra, which would be published in the papers. Cobra calls Sabo Luffy's brother and asks why he saved him, and Sabo replies that the Revolutionary Army's conflict is with the corrupt World Nobles. When Sabo asks how Cobra knows Luffy, he informs him that he helped him in the past. Imu and the Five Elders try to attack, so Sabo starts fleeing with Cobra, but he tells him to leave him behind. Sabo refuses, but Cobra explains he needs to be able to escape if he is to deliver a message to Luffy and Vivi. The message is that the Nefertari Family shares the moniker “D.”, and he knows what path Arabasta must take now.
A shocked Sabo thinks back to his childhood, and when he learned that both Luffy and Ace had “D.” in their names. He gets pulled out of his thoughts when Imu attacks Cobra again and Sabo, injuring both and forcing the latter to drop the former. As Cobra forces himself on his feet, he recites the words of Lili’s letter as Imu finally kills him, much to Sabo’s horror; Cobra's last wish was for Sabo to relay what he saw and live on. Sabo eventually escapes, but the Five Elder’s attention is turned to another eavesdropper, which turns out to be Wapol. Though he hated Cobra, he was absolutely horrified that he was murdered by what he considers the World Government's biggest skeleton in the closet. Wracked with fear, Wapol books it for his life.
Meanwhile, in the Grand Round Table, the kings are told that Cobra and Wapol will not be joining them, which some think is because Cobra exhausted himself giving his speech about abolishing the Seven Warlords of the Sea. As they move to the next topic, Shirahoshi's brothers decide to take her to the Red Port so they do not have to deal with anymore World Nobles, though Shirahoshi was sad she could not say goodbye to Vivi. Speaking of, Vivi ends up restrained by CP0, who she demands they let her free. Kalifa, who was watching over her, informs her that when her disappearance is made known, she’ll be living the rest of her life as a pet.
Vivi asks if Shirahoshi is okay, and Kalifa informs her that she emerged from her ordeal unscathed, much to Vivi’s relief. Jabra, who was also watching her, claims that the ones who attacked Saint Charlos, Leo and Sai, proudly proclaimed themselves as members of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet. He also reveals that Fujitora ended up helping several slaves escape, which angered Ryokugyu so much that they started going at it.
As Vivi ponders what to do, Wapol crashes through the wall begging to be spared, and Vivi takes the opportunity to escape by jumping into his mouth. The CP0 agents were left stunned by Wapol’s sudden action and eventually realize that Vivi had gotten away from them. As he runs, Vivi asks him how long he plans on running, and he says he will run to the edge of the world if he has to. The both of them then cross paths with Kinderella, who comes to believe that Wapol is eloping with Vivi.
