Before Luffy defeats his adversaries or even enters the phase to dominate the fight, elsewhere in the city, Zoro, Reiju, and Lami, having overcome the Marine commodores and some agents of Baroque Works, moved in different directions to assist the other members of their crew. Zoro, with his swords still unsheathed, advances with a firm purpose. His imposing figure and the determination in his gaze cause any remaining agent of Baroque Works or sailor to hesitate before facing him. By his side, Reiju, with the grace and lethality of a predator, kicks the air, using Geppo to move quickly and locate the next opponents. Lami, after deactivating her "Room", follows them, her confidence and skills unshakable, ready to use the Ope Ope no Mi to disorient and defeat anyone who dares challenge them.

As they approach other confrontations, the presence of each turns the battle that was already easy into a massacre. The opponents, already tired and overwhelmed by the other members of the Straw Hats, now face a new wave of relentless adversaries. The agents of Baroque Works and the remaining sailors, realizing that the tide has irrevocably turned against them, begin to retreat, their morale broken by the overwhelming force of the Straw Hats.

At that moment, in the city center and looking at the unconscious bodies on the ground, Luffy opened the shop and bought some chains to imprison his fallen enemies, he quickly put Seastone on Crocodile and surrounded the vice-admiral with so many chains that he could not break with his Haki, after that, he picked them up and started to walk towards Crocodile's casino to wait for the others, he might not have observation Haki yet, but he knew that his crew would easily deal with the opposing forces.

As the dust settles over the city's battlefield, the intensity of the fights begins to wane. The explosions, the screams, and the clash of steel against steel give way to a heavy and expectant silence.

"Let's meet at the casino, I'll be waiting for you," Luffy speaks on his untraceable den den mushi to the entire crew.

Quickly, the members of the Straw Hats, one by one, begin to head to the designated meeting place, using Geppo to find Luffy in front of the location, who had already undone his transformation, giving way to the usual carefree captain. The streets marked by the battles now serve as a silent path for the victorious to meet.

"You finished them off..." Reiju commented, looking at Luffy's prisoners.

"It was a fun fight... I learned a lot from them," Luffy was satisfied with the battle he fought.

"Damn captain, he should have left one for me... especially the swordsman..." Zoro still complained that Luffy took the two at once to fight.

*Crack*

The giants arrived at that moment.

"HEY, shall we go in there? What do you think, Dorry?"

"I think the captain should shrink us, Broggy!"

"Come here, let's bring you to an acceptable size," Luffy spoke, waiting for the giants to approach to activate his abilities of the moa moa no mi.

Vivi, and Shirahoshi, the mermaid princess, also join the group. Ironically, Vivi was carried in the air with Shirahoshi using Geppo with Megalo at her side. Despite not having directly participated in the fights, their concerns for their companions were evident.

"Luffy-Sama! Are you okay?" Shirahoshi asked approaching Luffy with her innocence and kindness, looking at Luffy with eyes full of admiration and concern. Her question about his well-being is loaded with genuine concern and relief at seeing him safe and victorious.
