A self-destruct switch?!

How much do you fear Kuma?!

You will not leave him any free will!

So this is...

...my life...

How many people have I troubled?

Troubling others!

Indeed, to live is to cause others trouble!

Your death will be trouble...

...for everyone who loves you!

Thank you.

Could you tell Bonney this when you see her?

Happy...

...tenth birthday.

Bonney...

Did you see everything?

Yes.

Gee...

I broke a promise to Kuma.

Whoa...

I'm sorry, Vegapunk!

"I'm Sorry, Dad - Bonney's Tears and Kuma's Fist"

Give me your hand.

Why?

Kuma entrusted this to me.

It's a present for your tenth birthday.

It's from Dad?! Yay!

There.

It's beautiful!

It's a sapphire!

This necklace looks like the sun! I'll treasure it!

The sun?

Mm-hm!

The Sun God!

Nika!

I see...

Kuma said it was just a good-luck charm,

but indeed,

who could have imagined two years ago...

...that kid would turn into something like that?

Something like that?

Yeah.

Speaking of which, Straw Hat is Dad's best friend's kid, isn't he?

Yes. I was surprised when you two arrived here together!

Fate works in mysterious ways.

After you went into that room,

so much has happened on Egghead...

I was just saved by Straw Hat Luffy and his crew.

I'll tell you everything. Let's join them once you've settled down.

Okay.

I'm sorry, Bonney.

Sorry that I'm just a paltry hired scientist.

No.

No!

No!

It's all...

...his fault!

PRESENT DAY

EGGHEAD, NEW WORLD

Dammit! Why can't I move?!

Bonney!

What the hell is this?!

I don't know! It might be his power!

Food...

Food...

Meat...

Somebody... please...

Meat...

I wish I could get some for you, but I can't move...

Reporting in!

At the center of town in the Fabiriophase,

we captured Vegapunk's bodyguard, Sentomaru!

Sentomaru-kun...

Bonney...

Jewelry Bonney, the pirate.

Your father, Kuma...

...is dead!

What's the situation?

Anyone below the rank of commodore can't go in, so we're in the dark...

Can you believe it?

This newly declared Emperor of the Sea is now taking a hostage.

Yeah.

It might be impossible for this to end without bloodshed.

It says the island is more heavily surrounded than Ohara!

Is he okay?

STRAW HATS' HOSTAGE SITUATION

Dr. Vegapunk?

No!

You're not doing it right. Keep your hands up like this and...

...like this!

Do you understand?

Cool!

One more time! I wanna see it again!

Alright, I guess it can't be helped!

You greedy boys and girls! This oughta satisfy you!

Oh, what's wrong, Dragon?

If Kuma is being driven by a fragment of his natural instinct,

where do you think he'd go, Iva?

If it were me, I'd charge Mary Geoise without a second thought,

but Kuma would not.

I think he'd...

Now why don't you...

...go meet your father in the afterlife?

Stop it, you fool!

Screw you!

If I'm gonna be killed anyway,

I'll take you down with me!

Distorted Future!

Nika-Like...

Nika?

...Future!

What was that? Was that an attack?

Again...

I became weaker again!

Why?!

Of course...

You are his daughter.

So you know that name.

But...

...you don't know...

...what it is.

What the hell are you talking about?

Apparently, she hasn't made...

...the connection between Nika and Straw Hat's white appearance yet.

What a...

...shame!

Hey, who gave him food?!

What?! N-Not us!

JUSTICE

We didn't give him anything!

Put Sea Prism Stone cuffs on him immediately!

--Right away, sir! --On it!

Get him!

Let me eat... meat...!

Stop it!

This geezer...

I can't even manipulate his age...

Why?

You seem to be wondering why your power is waning.

Bonney.

That power of yours...

...is something I gave you.

That power of yours is something I gave you.

What?

It was an experiment.

It was an experiment to see...

...if we could give an infant, who couldn't eat solid fruit, power with a fruit extract.

The Age-Age Fruit.

It was a success, but the fruit itself is worthless.

That power allows you to transform into any possible future version of yourself.

But the more you know of reality, the narrower your potential becomes.

You want to believe Nika is real, don't you?

He is real!

Ever since my father was turned into a cyborg to serve you,

I've been searching for him, hoping he'll free my father!

Your weakening is proof that you are starting to believe Nika is not real.

Your father also believed in this ridiculous Buccaneer legend,

and said to me...

"I want to save people just like Nika did!"

It was also I who conducted drug experiments on your mother,

who was the eighth wife of someone from the Holy Land.

But those blue blemishes showed up again, so it was a failure.

It didn't go well at all, but it was interesting that the side effect was inherited by her child.

S-Something fell from the sky!

So it was all you...

Your experiment?

It was your experiment?!

Kuma's family...

...was tormented by Sapphire Scales!

He sacrificed himself for it!

How could you offer him a deal as if you were doing him a favor?!

Come now.

Put yourself in my shoes.

Would you bother yourself with the feelings of mere insects?

It is inconceivable!

What?

Is it a Pacifista?!

N-No!

He has paw pads on his hands!

Don't tell me...

...he's the real...

Reporting in!

On the southwestern shore of Egghead,

the former Warlord of the Sea, Bartholomew Kuma has appeared!

He's advancing towards the island's center! The Authority Chip isn't working on him!

We can't stop him!

Kuma came?! Why?!

What's all the fuss about?

Kuma could not possibly be here.

I can't...

I'm too afraid...

...to say anything.

Stop him! You're clear to fire!

Yes, sir!

Hey, Dad...

I feel like I'm falling apart...

Maybe...

Maybe it'll be...

...easier...

...if I just... die now...

I'm sorry, Dad.

Oh, this is irritating.

You damn brat.

Shoot her in the head.

Stop it!

I'm sorry.

Dad.

After all the effort you made to save my life...

Dad!

Dad...

Dad...

B...

Bartholomew Kuma!

Impossible!

Why is this happening, Vegapunk?!

He should be... He should be dead!

The Buccaneer boy...

Your lot in life is to be a slave and die.

Your mother's dead...

I think she's better off that way.

Kumachi...!

I'm so happy.

I'm sorry, Kumachi.

I'm dying. It won't be long.

He should be dead!

Because days after the Revolutionary Army took him,

I pressed...

...his self-destruct switch!

Beyond the heavy rain is a rainbow

hageshii ame no mukou kakaru niji wo mita

I'll know the easy answer's a lie

tayasui kotae wa uso dato shiru darou

Vow not to back down to the shouting

dekai koe nanka ni makenai to chikatte

I need you alone to understand tomorrow

anata hitori ni wakatte hoshii ashita

You gave me the time of my life

yume no youna jikan kureta anata

What do I look like? An ANGEL or a DEVIL...

watashi wa dou mieteruno? sorega tenshi ka akuma ka

Beyond the dawn, beyond the dawn

yoake no mukou yoake no mukou

There's so much I want to tell you

hanashitai koto takusan aru nda

Filled with love, with love

ai kometa ai kometa

That can't be written down in a letter

tegami ni kakikirenai omoi da

A small hand in search of eternity

eien wo sagashita chiisana tenohira

Dragging his body past its limits, Kuma approaches his daughter.

Bonney had tirelessly awaited her father's return.

He no longer has reason or memory left to act on. What was it that still drove him?

Finally, after a bitter wait, the two reunite!

On the next episode of One Piece! "Thank You, Dad - Bonney and Kuma's Warm Embrace"

I'm gonna become the King of the Pirates!
