What Happened Previously On One Piece?
Upon landing on the island, Kuzan, a former admiral, froze Hibari, causing Koby to plead with him to melt the ice around her. However, Kuzan refused, fearing that Koby’s escape would reflect poorly on the Blackbeard Pirates. It was later revealed that Kuzan had previously battled for the position of Fleet Admiral on Punk Hazard against Sakazuki about a year prior.
When the Blackbeard Pirates encountered Kuzan in a bar, Blackbeard demanded that Kuzan unfreeze his crew, but Kuzan warned, and later, he accidentally harmed his crew. Eventually, Kuzan befriended them and shared a drink with Blackbeard and his crew. During their conversation, Kuzan showed off the loss of his left leg and how he had to replace it from time to time.
During a conversation with the Blackbeard Pirates, Catarina Devon inquired about the identity of the man marked by scars. Kuzan was informed about the existence of the Road Poneglyphs and how they were in possession of Kaidou and Big Mom, respectively. They discussed the possibility of the remaining two Poneglyphs being in possession of the man marked by scars.
Kuzan joked about being that man, but his remark was met with scepticism by the others. They speculated that the World Government may have hidden one of the Poneglyphs to prevent other pirates from finding One Piece. Blackbeard invited Kuzan to join his crew, and after initial reluctance, Kuzan agreed to join.
Garp confronted Kuzan, demanding that he unfreeze Hibari. Kuzan refused and asked if Garp was willing to kill his former protege to save his new favorite. Garp reminded Kuzan to live in the present. Garp then attacked Kuzan with a move called Blue Hole. Meanwhile, on Winner Island, Blackbeard defeated Law and destroyed his ship. At the end of the episode, Bepo transformed into his Sulong form and attacked Blackbeard, allowing Law to escape. However, Law urged Bepo to save the crew, while Bepo had faith they would survive.
