Let's get this show back on the road! Credit goes to AP's Redon, pewpiece, and co. for the info:

-Chapter title is "Atlas". In the cover story, Denjirou, who is now the daimyo of Kibi, catches the kids who were teasing Yamato.

-We begin with a brief flashback taking place at Punk Hazard. Vegapunk meets with Professor Clover, who asks for his assistance in researching the Void Century. When Vegapunk refuses, Clover reveals a startling secret to him: He too, has a "D" in his name! His older brother was killed due to his association to that name, so he lied in order to save his own life. A few years later, Vegapunk receives the news of Ohara's destruction by the Buster Call, which makes him emotional. Back to the present, as the broadcast continues, Nusjuro continues charging at the Sunny! However, before he reaches it, Atlas suddenly appears and knocks out Lilith! She follows this up by pressing a button on her head, which cuts off her signal from York. She then provides an opening for the Sunny's escape, as she grabs Nusjuro and launches the both of them to the sky!

-Meanwhile, the other elders continue their attack on Emeth, the robot greets Luffy as Joy Boy.... which confuses the rubber man. Emeth tries to launch an attack on Ju Peter, but his ancient body is too rusted to activate it. While those two are busy, Saturn leaps on the giants' ship, targeting Kuma and Bonney! Meanwhile, up above, Atlas sacrifices herself as she self-destructs, blowing off half of Nusjuro's face! The explosion also helps propel the Sunny off the island! Meanwhile, as Emeth considers using THAT attack on Peter, the chapter ends with Vegapunk reiterating in his broadcast that Gol D. Roger's crew were the only ones who discovered the true history. The prisoners of Impel Down are shocked to learn that Roger was actually a "D" all along....!!!!

I'm wondering why he made York and Lilith organic. I'm not sure what Shaka was he seemed organic as well if a head shot did him in.

York is obvious, since her role was to take on his bodily function. She needed to be organic.

I'm not sure Lilith is actually organic, since Atlas apparently presses a button in the back of her head in this chapter. She might have just been made to look human.

Anyway, seems like Lilith and York will be the only surviving Vegapunks. Makes me wonder what Lilith will do. If she's as curious about the true history as Stella was, she might just ask to join the Straw-hats.

I feel like a moron for not realizing this earlier.

Bonney is based on Anne Bonney. And where there's Anne there's Mary. And who Mary Read would be, you are wondering? Lilith.

Lilith will be the guest straw hat for the next arc it seems.

It finally looks like we are in the climax of this arc.

Having seen the chapter, Denjiro is now a Daimjo, Atlas knocked out Lilith so that she survived and attacked Nasjuro to get him out of there (noble sacrifice), it is revealed that Clover was a "D", Vegapunk continue with their message, the Ancestral Robot speaks with Luffy and is trying to stop Goroise, let's see what secret weapon he will show XD..., and it is revealed to the world that Roger is a "D", wait for the next chapter!.

[Rainbowman]

This story arc is filled with unnecessary deaths and it doesn’t help that we have to put up with an annoying traitor.

[~Yami~]

I wonder if Vegapunk legacy and project can still be continued or it will be put to an end after Stella died

Clover being a D was one of the biggest surprises for me in this chapter. It also means that Robin was involved with two people with the Will of D before running into Luffy.

But seriously, if Montblanc Noland gets revealed to also be a bearer of the D initial then that little "joke" from Arlong Park forums over a decade ago is going to be hysterically funny.
