The break is finally over, so let's get down to business! Credit goes to T for the summary and CCC from APforums for trans:
-Seems that the chapter title is "Biscuit Room". The ministory apparently involves Perona, who returns to Thriller Bark and discovers her old servant Kumacy (whether or not this refers to the original shadow's owner is unclear).
-It seems the giant children are delighted by Franky's appearance. They ask the crew if they're familiar with a boy named "Momonosuke", then request to be rescued. Nami decides to help the kids and decides to stay and fight, though Sanji tries to convince her otherwise. He and Franky then decide to take on the enemies instead. Meanwhile, in the room the Straw-Hats escaped earlier, the PH staff inspect the destroyed wall and note that only Vegapunk's pacifistas are known to have that kind of advanced laser technology.....
-Elsewhere, the bird-human from last chapter is talking on a denden mushi, and the people on the other line say they're taking care of the 4 intruders (probably referring to Nami's group). Meanwhile, we see a different denden conversation between Luffy's group and Brooke. Apparently, the skeleton has discovered an interesting-looking building. It's then revealed that the bird-person has companions, both of whom being centaur-like creatures (one with a leopard's lower half, the other with a giraffe's). However, the two mutants are taken down by Luffy and Robin, and it's revealed that the denden phones they held have "CC" written on them.....
-We then cut to Smoker, who tells his group about Punk Hazard. It seems that it was originally a worn-down, stinking island at first, but the climate went through a dramatic change after the battle between admirals Aokiji and Akainu....!!
Hmm.... looks like those people who guessed that PH was the site of the admirals' battle were right, after all. That still doesn't explain the incident from 2 years prior that Tashigi mentioned before, though. I guess this DOES mean that PH was abandoned from a separate event prior to the battle, then. BTW, something interesting to note is that the PH staff talk about Vegapunk in a rather derogatory manner, so it seems they're not affiliated with him even if they're familiar with his work.
Anyways, looks like we got the name of the dismembered samurai's son, huh. And I wonder how many people jumped to the conclusion of CP9 after hearing about leopard and giraffe-themed centaurs? :p Still, I guess that "CC" would be the initials of this arc's main enemy, most likely that Shichibukai.....
Still so many mysteries for this storyline.... naturally, I love it! Can't wait for the full chapter's release now! ;)
