Rebellion Alliance Returns With A Bang In One Piece Chapter 975

Before Kozuki Oden’s flashback started, we were shown the despair felt by the remainder of the Akazaya Nine as they stood on Port Tokage waiting for the rebellion alliance to arrive.

It seemed as though Orochi had used his spy to destroy any hope left for the rebellion. Luffy, along with 4200 others were nowhere to be found.

Chapter 975, titled “Kin’emon’s Clever Trick,” was released on March 22. The chapter reveals that the rebellion forces are at the Port Habu, safe and sound. In the chapter, Kyoshiro reveals his identity to Kin’emon and the others and adds 1200 more people to the rebellion alliance.

The chapter starts with Kanjuro trying to escape after capturing Momonosuke. He is shocked by the fact that Luffy, Kidd, and Law are still up and running despite the information he relayed to Orochi.

The three members of the worst generation line up, quarreling amongst themselves, and take down one of the ships in just a single blow.

This is when the Kyoshiro family ship arrives on the scene, seemingly to help Kaido’s cause. However, Kyoshiro attacks one of Kaido’s ships, disabling their cannons. He then reveals to Kin’emon that he is none other than Denjiro and has been hiding his identity from the other members of the Akazaya Nine to be more useful in the final fight. Along with 200 members of the Kyoshiro family, Denjiro also brings along 1000 of the men imprisoned in the Flower Capital, effectively adding 1200 members to the rebellion alliance.

He credits Kin’emon for coming up with the plan to confuse the spy inside their ranks.

In the message given by Lord Yasuie before his death, the two lines added to the snake implied that the middle words of “Habuminato” were to be cut out, leaving only the word “Hato” – making Port Hato their meetup spot.

However, Kin’emon told his closest friends to assemble at Port Tokage as the two lines added to the snake transformed it into a lizard. This way, Orochi was given the wrong information, and his efforts to neutralize the rebellion were in vain.

Unbeknownst to Denjiro, Kin’emon did not come up with this plan, and it was sheer luck combined with the stupidity that made him read Port Tokage instead of Port Hato.

Not a single ship from the rebellion alliance has been damaged, and everyone is ready to attack, waiting at Port Hato. One Piece will be on a hiatus for the next issue of the Weekly Shonen Jump and will resume on April 4.

About One Piece:

One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It has been serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 22, 1997, and has been collected into 95 tankōbon volumes.

The man who had acquired everything in this world, the Pirate King, is Gol D. Roger. The final words he said at the execution tower were “My treasures? If you want it, I’ll let you have it. Look for it; I left all of it at that place.” These words sent many to the seas, chasing their dreams, headed toward the Grand Line, in search of One Piece. Thus began a new age!

Seeking to be the greatest pirate in the world, young Monkey D. Luffy also heads toward the Grand Line in search of One Piece. With his diverse crew joining him along the way, consisting of a swordsman, marksman, navigator, cook, doctor, archaeologist, and cyborg-shipwright, this will be one memorable adventure.
