Okay, holiday break's over! Credit goes to AP's Redon for the info:

-Chapter title is "Okobore, the Town of Leftovers". The ministory shifts focus to another member of the grand pirate fleet, who seems to be Bellamy.

-Otama is given the medicine and is quickly recovering. Meanwhile, Okiku is treating Zoro's wounds. Interestingly, the young lady is quite a bit taller than the previous chapter let on.... as she's nearly three meters tall (or roughly around 9 feet tall in non-metric units)! Back to Tama, Otsuru tries to get her to eat some shiruko, but the girl refuses due to lacking money. When Tsuru threatens to throw out the dish if she won't eat it, Tama changes her mind, and is soon filled with tears after eating the tasty treat.

-We then learn a bit of background info on the Kouzuki clan: 20 years ago, they were the rulers of Wano! In fact, there was once a castle belonging to the clan on a nearby mountain range, but it's gone now. The late Kouzuki Oden made a plantation and provided the residents of the Kuri province with delicious food. However, upon his passing, the plantation was taken over by the shogun Orochi, and now the residents are forced to purchase ingredients of far inferior quality from him. Furthermore, as the government officials have taken over the former Kouzuki territory, the less fortunate villagers relocated to Okobore, as "leftovers" who were deemed unnecessary by the new regime! As Tsuru continues her story, an assassin aims an arrow at her, then fires! Luckily, Zoro blocks the projectile with his swords! The assailant turns out to be one of the Gifters (Kaidou's men, remember), who has the powers of a bat-type SMILE! In batman (or maybe manbat?) form, his hearing ability is greatly increased, and he was eavesdropping on Tsuru's story. He's decided to execute her for speaking badly of the shogun, and shoots more arrows at her! Zoro blocks them all, but while everyone is dealing with the bat Gifter, another one, who has the ability of a gazelle-type SMILE, suddenly kidnaps Tama!!!

-Okiku grabs a katana and pursues Tama's captor, with Luffy and Zoro joining her. The gazelle Gifter is heading towards the Bakura district, which is not only the government officials' territory, but the stronghold of Hawkins and two other headliners, known as Holdem and Speed. The three are awaiting there along with 30 other SMILE users!!! On his way there, the gazelle man contacts Holdem, who says Tama will prove useful as she tamed the baboon. During the chase, Luffy asks Kiku who exactly she is, and she answers that she is a samurai....!!!

-Meanwhile, Trafalgar Law receives word from Bepo about Luffy's group charging towards the stronghold. This news displeases him, and he says they need to be stopped before they cause any more trouble.....!!!!

So.... time to get the "Kiku for nakama" bandwagon rolling?
