Summary:
In the new palace tower, the Colosseum fighters are still fighting the Donquixote pirates, allowing Luffy, Law, Kyros, and Cavendish to escape to level three to reach level four.
Kin’emon finally found Kanjur hiding in the walls of the scrap. After a brief reunion, Kanjuro uses his ability to create a poorly drawn sparrow to fly them to the surface, but the imprisoned citizens of Dressrosa and the soldiers beg to be taken with them as well, to which Kanjuro makes rather crude ladders for them to climb out of. Once Luffy and company reached the third level, the group ran into several giant puppet soldiers blocking their way to the fourth level.
Luffy’s arrival causes the Colosseum fighters to become more organized in their attacks, surprising Donquixote’s agents. The fighters unanimously agree to hold off Donquixote’s agents to get Luffy, Cavendish, and Kyros to Doflamingo. Elizabello, Blue Gilly, and Ideo block the soldiers, allowing Luffy and the others to move at Dagama’s command. Angered, Dellinger stabs Dagama in the head, shocking Luffy, but Dagama suddenly wraps around Dellinger and traps the Quixote agent. He yells at the four to continue and Luffy and Cavendish use Gomu Gomu no Jet Gatling and Biken: Saint Exupery to blast the Dressrosa soldiers.
At the Dressrosa junkyard, Kin’emon finds his friend Kanjur and sheds tears of joy at the reunion. The Dressrosa soldiers notice Kanjuro come out of the wall as Kin’emon apologizes for keeping him waiting. Kanjuro says there’s no need to apologize and says he knew she’d come back for him with the self-shredded cabbage in her hand. He offers some to Kin’emon, who declines, saying that the cabbage hurts his stomach. He tells Kanjuro that he has a lot to tell him and that he must leave immediately because of the situation at the top of Dressrosa. Kanjuro agrees and draws a bird on the wall, shouting “get out” as his drawing comes to life, much to the shock of the citizens and soldiers of Dressrosa. They note that despite the fact that the sketch is alive, his drawing is terrible and he seems to barely be able to fly. Before they leave, one of the imprisoned citizens asks the samurai that the others can accompany them, saying that they all have family on the island and want to be reunited with them. Kanjuro helped the trapped citizens and soldiers by pulling crude ladders to the surface (although they complain about how terrible the ladders were pulled up).
The scene changes back to the Dressrosa battlefield as members of the Donquijote family try to stop Luffy, Law, Cavendish, and Kyros (all on Farula) from moving forward, only to be kicked away by Blue Gilly. Dellinger then comes in from behind and kicks him with his Decapitation High Heel, defeating him. Luffy notices this, but is told not to be distracted by Cavendish. He goes on to say that Doflamingo’s entire Bird Cage game is a farce, and that even if he delivers all 12 people on Doflamingo’s hit list, he will never let anyone live when the knowledge of his weapons dealing and toy operation is gone. In other words, they are all guaranteed to be dead. He states that Doflamingo will stop at nothing to make sure this information does not get out, effectively isolating Dressrosa Island from the rest of the world. In other words, the only way to survive and get off the island is to take Doflamingo’s head. He states that although Doflamingo is one step ahead of everyone else, his grave flaw is having so many powerful fighters on the island, including Sai, Idea, and Hajrudin, who will clash with the Donquijot family officers. Once Cavendish states that he will take Doflamingo’s head, Luffy, Law, and Kyros all disagree and reply that they will take Doflamingo’s head. Luffy reminds Kyros that he wanted Diamond’s head, but Kyros replies that taking Doflamingo’s head would restore King Riku’s honor and pay off his 10-year debt. This prompts Law to state that he has a thirteen-year-old debt and Luffy to state that he has a thirty-year-old one, prompting Cavendish to snap at him for lying to make himself look good. Once they reach the third level, they are confronted by large puppets.
