The son of Oden has finally met the daughter of Kaido.

After Yamato clashed with Ulti, she managed to find her way to Momonosuke and Shinobu. Both of them were understandably suspicious of Yamato, but Luffy managed to vouch for her abilities.

There is an amusing moment in One Piece Episode 999 where Yamato declared herself to be Oden. Momonosuke and Shinobu thought otherwise, as they made their escape via a smoke technique.


3) The Numbers make themselves known

Jaki, Juki, and Goki made their way into the Live Floor of the castle. Their very appearance struck fear into several characters such as Carrot and Nami.

While this was going on, Ussop and Chopper used the Brachio Tank V to move around Onigashima. Unfortunately for them, the Numbers seemed to notice their presence. Jaki ended up catching them before Franky made the save with his Radical Beam.


2) Big Mom fights the Straw Hat Crew

Big Mom is not someone who believes in an honorable fight. While Franky was dealing with the Numbers, she tried to strike him down with Napoleon. However, before she got the chance, Jimbei and Robin made the save.

The latter used his Fishman Jiu-Jitsu to overthrow Big Mom, while the latter rolled her away with Mil Fleurs. Jimbei and Robin used teamwork as they took Big Mom out of the battlefield. The fisherman couldn't help but chuckle at the situation.

The Straw Hat Crew decided to regroup and figure out their next game plan. The scene transitioned to the final part of One Piece episode 999.


1) Luffy finds an opening to Kaido

The confrontation between the Straw Hat Crew and Yonko is about to get more heated in One Piece. For someone like Luffy, this mission has become very personal. Everything is at stake for Wano County and the entire world.
