Things are moving at lightning speed! Following the events of the previous chapter, the Giants—who were at a severe disadvantage—are finally finding their second wind.
The Holy Knights have been overwhelming the battlefield with sheer numbers. Furthermore, Imu has possessed Gunko's body, using terrifying powers to enslave the Giants and summon immortal "Nightmare Demons." To make matters worse, the Giant children are being held hostage, plunging the battlefield into absolute chaos.
The tide begins to turn as Zoro, Sanji, and the Giants from the Underworld finally make their return to the surface. Their arrival, combined with a powerful, soul-stirring speech from Elder Jarl, has reignited the Giants' fighting spirit.
The truth has finally come to light regarding King Harald and the noble sacrifices Loki made for his people. With this revelation, Jarl has called upon every Giant to join the fray and fight back.
Recognizing Elder Jarl as the heart of the resistance due to his ability to inspire the masses, Imu (in Gunko’s body) has shifted their focus. The primary target is now clear: Imu is charging straight for Jarl to eliminate him and crush the Giants' morale once and for all
The story picks up with Dorry and Brogy, along with the Giants who have been transformed into "Nightmare Demons" via Domi Reversed, advancing toward the village where Elder Jarl is located.
The remaining Giants form a "human wall" to protect Elder Jarl at all costs. However, the controlled Giants mock them, laughing at their efforts. They sneer that ordinary soldiers—and even the giantesses—stand no chance of holding them back, taunting, "Do you girls really think you can stop us?"
Just then, the green-haired "lost child" Zoro arrives on the scene! He turns to Hajrudin and coolly says:
"Alright, big guy... feel free to crush them."
Zoro leaps onto the heads of the rampaging Giants and unleashes a devastating secret technique: Three Sword Style Secret Skill: Crossing of the Six Paths (Rokudo no Tsuji). With a single massive slash, the group of enemy Giants is sent crashing to the ground all at once.
As the fodder Giants fall, Dorry and Brogy—who were waiting for an opening—immediately charge at Zoro. However, Zoro uses his small size to his advantage, deftly dodging their massive strikes. The move is so quick that it results in chaos: Dorry and Brogy end up striking each other instead of their target!
The scene shifts to Brook, who has finally regained consciousness following the attack on the village. Despite being bound by Gunko’s (Imu) arrow powers, he manages to crawl toward her.
As Brook gets a clear look at Gunko's face, he is struck by a wave of pure terror and disbelief. He screams at the top of his lungs:
"Princess Shuri!!"
Trembling with a mix of rage and shock, Brook begins to stammer as the pieces of the puzzle fall into place:The Physical Evidence: "That face!! The blue hair... the heterochromic eyes... she is a citizen of the Holy Land!!!" The Connection: "It matches perfectly with her love for my music. Yes, everything aligns! That is undoubtedly Princess Shuri." The Dark Truth: "I... I never wanted to remember her. She is the one who murdered her own father—the man who was my greatest benefactor... the man to whom I owe a debt of gratitude that I can never repay in this lifetime!"
Brook’s voice pierces through the darkness, reaching deep into Gunko’s subconscious. His words cause her mind to waver, momentarily fracturing Imu’s grip on her body. Imu’s Fury: Feeling the resistance, Imu snarls, "You dare defy Mu?!" The Brief Awakening: Regaining a flash of consciousness, Gunko screams a desperate warning to Brook: "Brook, run away!!" The Release: With a final surge of will, she uses her power to shatter the arrows binding Brook, setting him free.
However, Imu refuses to yield. Doubling down on their psychic pressure, Imu forces Gunko’s body back into a puppet-like state and lunges forward to strike Brook down. Brook manages to react just in time, raising his shield to block the lethal blow
The scene shifts to the shore, where the Giant children are being forcibly taken toward the ship under Sommers' control. Ripley and the other Giant parents manage to reach the ship just in time, but they are immediately swarmed by the immortal Nightmare Demons.
Fueled by Elder Jarl’s inspiring words and a desperate love for their children, the Giant parents unite. This surge of morale allows Ripley and the group to coordinate their strength, effortlessly crushing the Nightmare Demons that previously seemed unstoppable.
Nearby, Gerth, Goldberg, and Road share a knowing look—a silent pact between comrades. Combining their legendary strength, they unleash a massive specialized ultimate attack.
The sheer force of the blow is so overwhelming that it shatters through both the Nightmare Demons and Sommers' spiked club. The chapter ends with a classic "Enel-face" moment, as Sommers is left completely stunned and aghast by the raw power of the Elbaf warriors
