Title: A captain's orders
Chapter starts where we left off. Warcury does not recover from the robots punch. Robot sends him flying with another punch.
Luffy is still amazed by the robot More dialog of Joyboy: Emeth, when the time is right for me to return, you have to teach him - the one who will inherit my will…
Vegapunk broadcast continues: “Rocks and Roger were the closest to fulfilling the will of D! But why they chose not to remains a mystery even to me.. “
We see the reaction of buggy, he looks a bit sad:Rocks…
Ju Peter quickly swims through the water and tries to take a bite of the ship, but luffy catches him, ties him into a knot and throws him back to the island.
Luffy starts laughing. In that moment the ship gets hit by an attack from nusjoro. Sanj has to protect Bonney from the shockwave. Sanji: Luffy this is no time to be laughing!
The robot speaks directly to luffy: Joyboy had the same problem as you. If you want to fight seriously, you need to overcome the will of your devil fruit.
Luffys eyes bcome stars and pop out: The robot can talk?!
Luffy transforms into base and looks a bit more serious: so that's what I had noticed … Gear 5 is crazy strong but sometimes it feels like someone else is trying to take over.
We see chopper thinking of his monster point: Luffy, there are ways to control the will of your devil fruit! But it might take a lot of time.
Luffy is looking with a very serious face into the direction of the elders. We see two small flashback panels of Sentomaru and vegapunk getting attacked “I couldn't protect axe guy and apple guy while using gear 5. There is no time, I need to control this form no matter what! Otherwise I can't protect my friends!
The robot says that Joyboy was able to control his awakening by maintaining a state of complete calmness.
Luffy: I see.. shishi. He starts smiling and talks to the Strawhats:Guys, this is the captain's order: Sail ahead, I will keep these monsters busy. I'll come after you, I promise!
Shocked Strawhat and giants reactions
Luffy then quickly speaks to dorry and broggy: Hey giants, you remember the island where we first met? There was one moment where everything went calm and I felt as serious as never before…
The giants look at each other confused, not knowing what he is talking about
Luffy:I need to embrace this feeling right now. To save my friends, I need to go one step further!
We see a flashback to little garden, during the fight with Mr 3.
In the present, luffy starts transforming to gear 5,but he does not laugh and looks very serious.
Back to the flashback, we see the moment luffy gets hit by Miss Goldenweeks attack, Colortrap: Green, where luffy then calmly drinks tea
In the present, Luffy has finished his transformation but instead of white hair, his hair is now green and he has scales. Luffy: So this is my real peak.I think I will be able to fight seriously in this form. In honor of the color which helped me achieve this form, I will call it: Gear Green!
He proceeds to one shot all five elders. Chapter ends with all five elders drowning with a thought bubble: “Save us, Imu chan! We thought he was saving it for Red Hair! “
