==Long Summary==
Chopper works on an antidote while Marco helps some of the infected with his flames. Although the Beasts Pirates do not want to attack Marco, Queen threatens them with death if they do not. Still, Marco transforms into his phoenix form and flies Zoro to the rooftop while Robin and Brook run to the castle. Zoro reminds Marco of his memories with Ace.
When Ace was in the Whitebeard Pirates, he begged Whitebeard to let him go to Wano Country to take Kaidou down. When Ace last visited the country, he promised he would make the country free from hunger. However, knowing that Ace would not stand a chance against Kaidou, Whitebeard did not let him go. Ace resolved to get stronger so he could battle Kaidou and fulfill his promises.
Nami reveals to Tama that Ace was Luffy's brother. Tama reflects on when Luffy told her about Ace's death; although Luffy spoke to her very bluntly, she regrets the way she reacted. Moving on, Tama's group decides to carry out a strategy Tama laid out. 
In the storehouse, Momonosuke hears from Yamato that Ace was Luffy's brother and Roger's son. He also hears that Luffy has the infamous initial D in his name.
On the way to the rooftop, the Mink soldiers struggle to defend the stairway from enemy Beasts Pirates. Just then, Luffy appears and defeats them, taking the stairs to the next floor.
Marco is pursued by King and Queen. Queen fires bullets at him from his mouth but the bullets pass through Marco's body. Keeping King and Queen in a chokehold, Marco flings Zoro out of the hole in the ceiling. On the rooftop, Big Mom meets with Kaidou and finds the samurai defeated on the ground. They discuss the New Onigashima Project; although the people are enjoying the Fire Festival in the Flower Capital, Kaidou will move Onigashima there, even if many will die. However, they start to bicker over the Road Poneglyph, where they both agree to negotiate further once the One Piece is acquired.
