Short Summary[]

Smooth seas stretch out before the Straw Hats as they leave Punk Hazard far behind—but while they fear Doflamingo's return and prepare to face him, another foe lies in wait, whose powers could be their downfall!

Long Summary[]

The Thousand Sunny is still in the water as a massive sea creature arises from the waters, carrying Breed. As the rest of the ship's residents sleep, Usopp, Franky, and Chopper keep on the lookout for Doflamingo, when all of a sudden, Breed and his army of Sea Lapahns attack the Thousand Sunny and everyone on board. In response, the Straw Hats and everyone else begin fighting off the Sea Laphans when Breed suddenly calls off the attack, revealing himself atop the Thousand Sunny.

With Breed having kidnapped Caesar, Luffy attacks him, but he is stopped by a Kung Fu Dugong using a Busoshoku Haki-infused fist. Breed escapes with Caesar, while Law tries to use his abilities to stop him. When Law tries to use Room, he is interrupted by Sea Lapahns rocking the boat. When everyone turns around, they see a massive ship the size of an island, with Sanji noticing a Jolly Roger resembling Breed. Law, Luffy and Chopper decide to board the Shark Submerge III to go after Breed.

As they leave, Chopper askes Luffy if he recognizes the Sea Lapahns, noting they look identical to the Lapahns back on Drum Island. Law asks Chopper if that's why he joined them, proceeding to call him a tanuki. Chopper begins yelling at Law, but Law notices the Sea Lapahns entering Breed's ship. The pirates step out of the Shark Submerge III and into Breed's ship, with Law warning Luffy to be careful. Just then, Luffy decides to yell to Law that it's not as dark where he is. Law, Luffy and Chopper head towards the middle of the ship, but they are suddenly attacked by Sea Laphans, an Octopus Boxer, and other sea creatures.

They successfully fight off the sea creatures when the Kung Fu Dugong from earlier arrives and attempts to attack Luffy. Luffy defeats the Dugong, when the Dugong remembers losing to Luffy in a fight while in the Arabasta Kingdom. Excited, he jumps towards Luffy and begins hugging him. Meanwhile, Caesar is seen locked in a cage with Seastone handcuffs. He asks if anyone can free him as Breed enters the room. Caesar recognizes him and asks if he can be set free to see Doflamingo. However, Breed just tells him to stop whining and calls him worthless scum, causing Caesar to realize that Breed is not working under Doflamingo. Breed explains his plan to make a kingdom full of pets and that he needs Caesar's help to do it. However, Caesar refuses to help Breed, and Breed uses his ability on the scientist.

Elsewhere, Luffy is catching up with his Kung Fu Dugong friend and training him. As leader of the Sea Animal Pirates, the Dugong apologizes to Luffy for attacking him and explains his journey since leaving Arabasta. He explains that after arriving in the New World, Breed enslaved his crew. Suddenly, Breed began speaking into the intercom, commanding them to fall in line. Panicked, the Dugong tells them to run away quickly.

When Breed arrives and scolds the Dugong for not listening to him, he sees the Straw Hats and Law and explains that he is a pirate. He attacks Chopper with a green substance that, upon hitting him, transforms into a collar. Breed then commands Chopper to attack Luffy and Law, and Chopper eats a Rumble Ball, transforming into Monster Point. Powered up, he attacks his former allies, distracting them and allowing Breed to collar them as well.

Anime Notes[]

  • This is the first episode of the Caesar Retrieval Arc and the last to have its airdate in 2013.
  • Sanji and Kin'emon are not shown to be furious over Momonosuke sleeping with Nami and Robin like in the manga.
  • Breed ate the Peto Peto no Mi, which allows him to manipulate living things.
  • Caesar Clown is kidnapped by Breed.
  • Luffy, Chopper, and Law set out to Breed's base in order to recover Caesar.
  • Luffy reunites with a Kung-Fu Dugong from Alabasta, who has formed his own crew, the Sea Animal Pirates. It can also use Haki, making it the second animal to be capable of using this ability, the first being Alpacacino.
  • Breed puts a collar on Chopper, making him turn into his monster point form and attack Luffy and Law.
  • Breed manages to put a collar on Luffy and Law.
  • When Luffy, Chopper, and Law are in the Shark Submerge III, Law calls Chopper "Tanuki-ya", combining the running joke of people calling Chopper a tanuki (to which he always angrily responds that he is a reindeer, not a tanuki), with Law's habit of adding "-ya" to the end of people's names. However, according to SBS Volume 72, Law's nickname for Chopper is "Tony-ya".
  • Luffy mistakes Breed's power as a slime human because his Devil Fruit sounds like "Petopeto", or "sticky", which foreshadows Trebol's powers.
  • The preview for the next episode is shortened from its usual length.
