"The Worst Generation Charges in! The Battle of the Stormy Sea" is the 978th episode of the One Piece anime.
Short Summary[]
Luffy, Law and Kid join the Akazaya samurai as they begin to blew up a ship from Kaidou's troops.
Long Summary[]
Although the arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates, Heart Pirates, and Kid Pirates was unexpected, the Beasts Pirates are still confident as they fire their cannons. Usopp and Zoro repel the attack. Meanwhile, back at Tokage Port, Kanjuro is surprised to see the pirates being present there, having reported to Orochi about the changes of Kin'emon's plan.
Previously, two Gifters bombed the Thousand Sunny on Orochi's orders. The Straw Hats, who were located in Amigasa Village, heard the explosion at the coast. Luckily, the ship was built out of a durable wood and was unharmed by the explosion. However, the sails were burned and had to be repaired.
The Gifters then reveal how they prevented the rest of the allies from getting to Tokage Port; they bombed the ships docked at the port, as well as all connecting bridges. The Gifters also reveal that the Beasts Pirates have formed an alliance with the Big Mom Pirates. Feeling satisfied, they decided to keep firing their cannons.
Luffy, Law and Kid board the enemy ship. They get into a disagreement over who should destroy the ship. The three captains together go on to destroy the ship. Luffy defeats the eagle Gifter and Law takes out the butterfly Gifter.
Soon, Kyoshiro and his family arrive on the ship, supposedly to take down the allied ships. However, he instead decide to slash the Beasts Pirates' ship, cutting it in half and sinking it.
