Chapter 1104

The device was supposed to simply shut Kuma down completely and leave him in a vegetative state. This is why Dr. Vegapunk is so confused by Kuma’s presence because even with Bonney being in danger, Kuma should not have been able to come. He then starts speculating that the reason is due to a special power of the Buccaneers beside their strength. All the while, Kuma hugs his daughter.

Kizaru remarks that everything is over now, Sentomaru is relieved to see his old friend again, and the Marines report that Luffy has vanished before they could restrain him. Bonney thanks Kuma for everything he did for her, such as writing the letters that never reached Bonney. She even says that her mother was an amazing person. She tells him that she does not care if everyone calls him a tyrant; to her, he is her amazing and kind-hearted father. Saturn emerges from the rubble seething with rage, while also having lost one of his horns and his right arm.

He demands an explanation, but Dr. Vegapunk simply says this is his own doing, though he also suspects it was due to love in the end. Saturn scoffs at this notion as his horn and arm regenerate, to the shock of Sanji. Saturn tries to attack Kuma again as Bonney tells him to get out of the way, but Sanji intercepts and deflects Saturn’s leg, declaring he will not let him hurt Bonney anymore. Franky announces he and the crew owe Kuma a huge debt as he uses Radical Beam to blast a hole through Saturn. Kizaru, however, appears behind Franky and blasts him away, declaring he will be putting the crew’s growth to the test, while Saturn’s injury heals. Bonney tells Dr. Vegapunk that Kuma cannot move, so Atlas carries him, but Kizaru says that he needs to wrap things up, especially now that Kuma has arrived. Dr. Vegapunk, however, calls Kizaru a sad man without a heart, which Kizaru agrees, saying he should have brought a darker pair of shades. Finally, Saturn orders a Buster Call to destroy Egghead completely, with Dr. Vegapunk’s studies, Kuma’s existence, and Luffy’s powers being all the justification he needs to see the island annihilated.
