That time is here! Credit goes to AP's NoxDraz for the info:
-Chapter title is "Samurai's Mercy". Splash page features Eneru.
-The shogun is a wielder of the Mythical Zoan
Hebi Hebi (Snake) no Mi, Model Orochi! It seems that each of his eight heads has their own distinct personality. He angrily demands an apology from Komurasaki for smacking him, but the courtesan stubbornly refuses. Despite his rage, he still loves the woman for her beauty, so he redirects his wrath towards his own men instead! Nonetheless, he still decides to punish the courtesan by
swallowing her up!
-One of the Oniwabanshu ninja spots Robin, and apparently summons weapons called
Fuujin and
Raijin to capture her! However, Brooke suddenly appears, and the ninja are scared off by the skeleton! Nami and Shinobu are about to join the action as well, but they notice an enemy ninja behind them, who's named
Hanzou. Hanzou remembers how pretty Shinobu looked in her younger days, and is put off by her current appearance. This angers the kunoichi, who strikes him in the crotch, heh. She then uses her ninjutsu to rot the ceiling, which ends up falling on Orochi's heads, forcing him to spit out Komurasaki!
-Immediately after she's spat out, Kyoushirou approaches Komurasaki, blade drawn, and asks her if she's prepared to face punishment. The courtesan responds "yes", and thus
the yakuza boss STABS her!!! Upon doing so, the gangster notices that she's holding Kinemon's drawing in her hand, and takes it from her after she collapses. A heartbroken Orochi asks Kyoushirou why he did what he did, and he responds that he was showing mercy as a samurai. The shogun becomes even more enraged than before, and targets both Toko AND Robin! However, before he swallows up both girls, Nami appears, who uses Zeus to zap him with thunder....!!!
-At Okobore Town, Kinemon's wife Otsuru offers Big Mom some food. The empress, who seems to have reverted to a childlike state due to her memory loss (acting much like her younger self from her earlier flashback), happily accepts the meal.
Only nine days remain until the decisive battle begins.....!!!!
