No this is not an incorrect upload!! Instead of Udon, we rewind to a detour where the Straw Hats clash with the Cider Bounty Group in an anime original lead in to Stampede. Manipulated by Buena Festa, Cider hunts the crew across a fizzy island base before Luffy reunites with Hancock. Together they crush the guild, proving Cider was never ready for the Pirate Festival’s true monsters.

Justin will return in SpoilerMan 2~

The focus tightens as Luffy pushes his prison training further, taking down Gifters while experimenting with a new Haki technique, until Hyogoro recognizes it and demonstrates its true form. Elsewhere, Law breaks off to rescue his crew amid accusations of betrayal, Yasu inserts himself into the rebellion, and Zoro battles assassins on a snowy bridge. He collapses after the fierce clash and awakens to Komurasaki’s revelation: she is Hiyori, Momonosuke’s sister.

Santiago Claws is my middle name~

Sanji daydreams over his raid suit, Perospero stages a takeover of the Big Mom Pirates, and an amnesiac Big Mom heads for Udon. There, Luffy bonds with Hyogoro before being crushed by the vice warden, right as Queen arrives. Elsewhere, a bathhouse mission implodes thanks to invisible Sanji, and Zoro hunts down the thief who stole Ryuma’s legendary sword.

Real clowns of genius frfr~

Zoro gambles away his savings and teams up with the oddball Tonoyasu, Sanji runs a wildly popular soup stand, mostly serving women, and effortlessly swats away Kyoshiro’s men. Franky discovers his work was for nothing, Robin gains access to Orochi’s chambers, and we finally meet the thumb-shaped Shogun himself alongside Komurasaki, the mysterious Oiran who charms and ruins men with ease.
