Chapter 1,104: "Thank you, daddy"
- Reader request in the cover: Sanji is helping 2 rats with its marriage proposal in a restaurant.
- Chapter starts where last one ended. Saturn is shocked when he sees that Kuma is still moving.
- It's revealed that Saturn already pressed the self-destruct switch a few days after Revolutionary Army took Kuma's body from Mary Geoise. So he can't understand what's happening now.
- Vegapunk thinks to himself that there's no scientific explaination for why Kuma can still move or how he knows Bonney was on Egghead Island.
- Sanji, Franky and Atlas are shocked too when they see Kuma.
- Just before Kuma's punch reaches Saturn, Kuma remembers some parts of his life (nothing new).
- Then, in a SUPER-EPIC double spread, Kuma punches Saturn. Kuma's punch crushed Saturn's face but Saturn is still conscious and looks angry at Kuma.
- However, Saturn is sent flying across island by Kuma's attack. Saturn collides with some buildings that fall, and Saturn gets flattened by them.
- All Marines are shocked to see that a slave punched a member of the Gorosei.
- Vegapunk, Sanji, Franky and Atlas realize they can move again.
> Sanji: "Are you OK, Bonney-chan!!?"
- Vegapunk asks everyone to bring Bonney back to the Labo Phase, so they can escape.
- Vegapunk reveals that Kuma's self-destruct switch doesn't literally destroy Kuma's body since Vegapunk knows it can be weaponized.
- However, Vegapunk followed Saturns' order by creating a mechanism that will switch off all of Kuma's function. Kuma shouldn't be able to move or take any order after the self-destruct switch is pressed.
> Vegapunk: "Could it be that... the Buccaneer's special ability is not superhuman strength...!! In the past, they have..."
- Bonney thanks Kuma for everything she saw in Kuma's memory. Kuma just hugs Bonney and then he stops moving. Marines can't find Luffy anywhere, it seems Luffy disappeared.
- We don't see anything new in this chapter about Zoro, Lucci, the other Straw Hat crew members (regardless of Sanji and Franky) or the other Vegapunk's clones (regardless of Vegapunk and Atlas).
- Saturn emerges from the rubbles. He lost his right arm and his left horn due to buildings falling on him. Saturn's body is heavily injured too.
- However, Saturn uses his powers to recover very quickly. Some black flames appear to regenerate 100% his right arm and his left horn.
- Saturn asks Vegapunk how could this happen with Kuma.
> Vegapunk: "Let's just say it's because of love!!"
- Saturn tries to attack Kuma, but Sanji deflects Saturn's attack.
> Sanji: "You won't hurt Bonney-chan again!!"
- Vegapunk orders Atlas to carry up Kuma to the Labo Phase. Meanwhile, Franky uses his "Radical Beam" to attack Saturn.
> Franky: "We owe Kuma a big favor!!"
- "Radical Beam" pierces Saturn's body, but Saturn recovers easily from Franky's attack.
- Suddenly, Kizaru appears and kicks Franky away. Vegapunk tells off Kizaru.
> Vegapunk: "Your heart can't withstand doing this much longer, isn't it? What a sad man you are, Kizaru!!"
- Kizaru replies Vegapunk with a quite sad expression (it seems he's about to tear up).
> Kizaru: "I should have brought a darker sunglasses..."
- In the last page of the chapter, Saturn orders to start a Buster Call in Egghead Island. We can see all Marine ships preparing to start the attack...
End of the chapter.
