The G-5 Marines inside the laboratory panic at the sight of the poisonous gas nearing the hole in the shutter, and quickly board it up. Brook projects his soul outside the laboratory, and sees that the surrounding landscape has been completely covered by the ash-like shell produced by Shinokuni. Law switches Sanji and Nami back into their original bodies at her request, despite Sanji's silent protests. Law informs everyone that there is only one escape route that can avoid the gas; a door marked R-66. Kin'emon and Zoro lead a party to search for the children, Smoker prepares to fight Vergo, and Tashigi and the G-5 Marines search for the escape route. Luffy goes after Caesar, and is warned by Zoro to take him seriously this time. Luffy is attacked by a squadron of Caesar's subordinates, but takes out all of them at once with a flurry of kicks from his new Gomu Gomu no UFO attack.
