Summary:
Trafalgar Law and Donquijote Doflamingo begin their duel by slamming the iron bridge while the escaped Straw Hats are already on their way to Zou. On the ship, Momonosuke talks about how he was traumatized by Doflamingo’s cruelty and was afraid of what he might do to Kanjuro.
Meanwhile on Dressrose, Violet is seen heading towards the palace on her steed. Zoro and Kin’emon are with Bartolomeo, who agrees to find Luffy for them only if Zoro gives him his autograph.
In a battle royale, Rebecca knocks out fighters by kicking them out of the ring without injuring a single one until Rolling Logan confronts her.
Doflamingo wants to know what Law plans to do with Giolla, as his family will do anything to help their captain. Law simply rocks her and allows her to escape, which she doesn’t wait for. Doflamingo claims that Law’s grudge is just his pettiness from his past loss, but Law disagrees, stating that he plans to fulfill the devotion of a person he knew. So the two begin to clash on the bridge, with Law using his powers to create an explosion.
Out at sea, Nami’s group tries to get back to Dressrosa while searching for Dolflamingo. Chopper worries about Law while Sanji calls Usopp and finds out he is with Robin and Franky. As he hangs up, he notices that Momonosuke is quite upset about something. Momonosuke tells him that he witnessed Doflamingo cruelly torturing a subordinate for his failure in the arena when he visited the island with his father and their friend Kanjuro earlier. Afterwards, Kanjuro suggested that they flee the island, but was captured in the process, causing Momonosuke to fear for his safety.
Sanji listens passively as he thinks about Violet. Flashback showing that while they were riding the toy horse, Violet tells him that she has someone in the government waiting for her to take her off the island and thanks Sanji for his help. He tried to get her to kiss his cheek, but she saw in her visions a school of Fighting Fish attacking Sunny, causing Sanji to take off to go help the others.
Back in the present, Violet drives past several people watching the fight for D-Block on a monitor. She shoots and destroys him with the pistol before asking the toy horse to take her back to the palace.
At the Colosseum, Bartolomeo gained the attention of Zoro and Kin’emon. He cries with joy and is later told to inform Luffy that they are looking for him. He agrees and asks for Zoro’s autograph as a reward for the request.
In the ring, Rebecca manages to hold her own as she stays near the edge of the arena and knocks down opponents who try to challenge her. The announcer reveals that this is how she has managed to win all her battles without harming her opponents. However, she is soon confronted by Rolling Logan, who sets his sights on her and threatens to break every bone in her body.
In the manga, Giolla immediately fled the Iron Bridge after Law released her. In the anime, Giolla stayed until Doflamingo told her to run.
As Law and Doflamingo begin their battle on the bridge, the anime shows that the Fighting Fish were caught in the crossfire.

Zoro and Bartolomeo’s conversation is extended:
At first, Zoro tried to deny his identity.
Rolling Logan depicts an attack that was not shown in the manga.
The anime adds more flashbacks of Rebecca’s training under the Thunder Soldier.
