We're back, baby! Credit for the info goes to AP's Redon and co.:
-Chapter title is "Hard Aspect". Ministory involves Kinemon giving Yamato some money, as well as asking her a favor.
-Continuing from last time, V. Nasjuro takes down all of the Pacifistas on Egghead! Meanwhile, as Bonney's group take on the marines blocking their path, in the lab, York leads Mars to the monitor room. The elder proceeds to destroy it, but this still doesn't shut down the broadcast. York explains that the video is being played through a new invention of Vegapunk's, known as the "Haishin Den den mushi" (Distributor Transponder Snail), and that it's hidden elsewhere in the lab. Mars gets ready to blow up the whole place, but York stops him, saying that he'll risk destroying the power plant and weapons lab they originally sought. Soon, Mars hears a small voice coming from the Punk Records, and assuming it's coming from the snail, proceeds to follow it to its source....
-Back outside, we get a brief moment between Kaku (who's now awake) and Stussy. We then switch to Nami's group, where Usopp says he made escape preparations with the Coup de Burst.... however, without the Vega Force 1 robot, they won't be able to fly far enough to reach the sea. That's when Edison steps forward with a plan of his own, telling everyone to trust him. Meanwhile, Ju Peter tries to eat Luffy and the giants, but the rubber man throws a building into his gaping maw instead! However, this move causes Luffy to run out of power. Thankfully, the giants help him out with providing him with Hakarl, a dish of fermented shark meat! Though he doesn't like the smell, the dish does the trick: His strength has recovered! He proceeds to attack the incoming Warcury with a Gear 3 assault, but ends up hurting himself, instead! It seems the elder's haki is far more powerful than his own! At the same time, Saturn is about to reach Nami's group at the top of the Labophase....
-Back to Bonney, Nasjuro suddenly appears in front of her! Cutting back to Mars, he finally finds the snail, as one minute remains until Vegapunk spreads his message. He says that Vegapunk's luck has run out, but at that moment, some odd bubbling noises catch his attention, causing him to look up....!!!!
