In the previous chapters, we witnessed Kuma’s final sacrifice for Bonney and discovered how he lost his memories. But, the flashback is now over and in this chapter, we’ve returned to the present timeline with the Egghead War.

Before the Kuma flashback began, it became evident that Bonney found herself trapped in a life-or-death situation. Saturn transformed into his Devil Fruit state, crushing her in his hand, restraining the other Straw Hat Pirates as well, while Luffy remained down after his fight with Kizaru. Meaning that Kuma is the only person (well, cyborg) who’s able to swoop in and save her.

The chapter will begin where the last one ended. Bonney reverted into child form and apologized to Vegapunk, who gave her a sun necklace made of sapphire as a 10th birthday present from Kuma.

Then, back to the present, where Bonney is engaged in a battle to the death with Saturn. In this chapter, Bonney uses her Nika-like Future attack against Saturn, which is one of the most powerful attacks in all of One Piece. However, in this chapter, her attack doesn’t work and she finds herself in a weakened state.

Because of this, Saturn realizes that Bonney’s understanding of Nika is different from his real powers. Meaning that she can only replicate his rubber power part.

While Saturn and Bonney are fighting, the rest of the Straw Hat pirates are still unable to move due to Saturn’s Devil Fruit power. And they watch the scene unfold, helpless.

All apart from Luffy. We see him attempting to regain his strength by eating food that someone managed to sneak to him. But his efforts are in vain because Saturn notices and orders Luffy to be restrained with sea stone.

The true nature of Bonney’s Devil Fruit power

Then, it’s revealed that Bonney’s Toshi Toshi no Mi power was given to her by Saturn. In the past, Saturn conducted experiments on people to give them Devil Fruit powers via extracted medicine, meaning that they don’t actually have to eat the fruit.

Saturn gave this medicine to Ginny, Jewelry Bonney’s mother, but she unfortunately contracted the Sapphire Scales disease as a side effect. However, he failed to realize that the Devil Fruit power and Sapphire Scales would pass on to her daughter Bonney.

Here, we also discover the true nature of Bonney’s Devil Fruit power. She’s able to transform into any future version of herself that she imagines (giving credence to the fan theory on the power of imagination). However, the more she gains knowledge about her future self, the more limited her power becomes. This is why, when Bonney struggles in a state of despair and starts to doubt what she knows about Nika, her Nika form becomes too weak to fight against Saturn.

Towards the end of the chapter, Saturn readies himself to kill Bonney while she apologizes to her father (Kuma) because he gave up his life to save hers.

But hope isn’t lost. In an epic final spread, Kuma arrives at Egghead Island and destroys the Marines that were surrounding the group. He grabs Bonney with his hand, and shields her with his body from Saturn’s attack, as an epic battle ensues.

The chapter ends with Kuma’s face filled with fury as he prepares to punch Saturn. But just before his fist makes contact, the last panel reveals Saturn’s terrified face.

Fans will be disappointed to know that we’re getting another break for two weeks, so they’ll have to wait and see what happens to Saturn when Kuma’s rage is unleashed.
