The Straw Hats and CP9, plus their two captives, face each other down. Nico Robin once again insists that she does not want to go with them and that she wants to die. When Monkey D. Luffy tells her that she can die as a part of the crew instead, Robin experiences a flashback to her childhood.

To prevent knowledge of the void century from spreading, the island and its inhabitants (sans Robin) are destroyed. Aokiji allows Robin to escape, challenging her to find friends and to live. Realizing that she had almost given up on both, Robin decides she wants to live with the rest of the Straw Hats. Touched by their words, Franky reveals that the blueprints CP9 have been searching for are hidden on his person, but they are not that of Pluton, but an "opposing weapon" and he promptly destroys them, giving CP9 no further reason to keep him in custody. | |||||

The Straw Hat Pirates continue their adventure across the seas. After getting stuck in a fog that not even the sun can penetrate, the crew meets Brook, a living skeleton that immediately agrees to join their crew. Unfortunately for the Straw Hats, Brook lost his shadow on the giant ship known as Thriller Bark and thus cannot accompany them outside the fog. Determined to have Brook as part of the crew, they go to Thriller Bark in order to get Brook's shadow back. Tony Tony Chopper, Usopp, and Nami serve as the first boarding party, and find that the ship is inhabited by zombies. When the rest of the Straw Hats follow suit they discover that Brook is not the only one who lost his shadow, and that much of the island-like ship's populace had their shadows stolen by Gecko Moria. | |||||

Moria mobilizes his zombies to capture the Straw Hats, who in turn try to reunite their two boarding parties. When they begin to engage Moria's forces in an effort to accomplish this goal, however, members of the crew mysteriously disappear. Brook explains this to be Moria's doing: he captures those that enter Thriller Bark, removes their shadows, and inserts them into patched-up corpses in order to reanimate them and create his own zombie army. The shadowless individuals are thus forced to stay out of the sunlight or risk their own destruction, meaning that most stay within the impenetrable fogs of Thriller Bark. With Sanji, Roronoa Zoro, and Monkey D. Luffy having lost their shadows and Nami similarly unaccounted for, the Straw Hats become determined to defeat Moria. | |||||

While Luffy chases Moria across Thriller Bark, his crew does their best to defeat Oars. Though they almost succeed, Oars is quickly joined by Moria, who gives Oars the advantage he needs to decimate the crew. Luffy, unaware that Moria has joined Oars, runs into a group of pirates that have all lost their shadows. Seeing Luffy as hope for freedom, they provide him with the means to bring down Moria: a hundred shadows that they've managed to take back from the island's zombies. Luffy engages Oars, and with the help of his crew they finally defeat the giant. With Thriller Bark's course having been left unattended, the fog begins to thin and the sun begins to rise. Seeing this as an effective way to get rid of the Straw Hats, Moria absorbs all of the island's shadows in order to kill time until sunrise. | |||||

Moria, like Luffy before him, is given the strength of all the shadows he has absorbed. Moria, however, has absorbed more shadows than he can handle, and with each successful blow Luffy lands on him he loses some of the excess shadows. When Luffy drops the whole of Thriller Bark upon him, Moria loses all of his shadows, which quickly return to their original owners. No longer fearing the sun, the Straw Hats and the inhabitants of Thriller Bark begin to celebrate, only to be cut short by the arrival of Bartholomew Kuma. A Warlord of the Sea, Kuma has been sent to take Luffy's head, something nobody on Thriller Bark will allow.

When he remembers that he still has his crew, Luffy makes plans to go back to the archipelago where they were last together.

Rayleigh suggests an alternative approach. They briefly go to and assault Marine Headquarters, something that becomes a major news story. The other Straw Hats, having been sent to different parts of the world by Kuma, quickly learn of this and find hidden meaning in Luffy's return. |
