When Luffy tells her that she can die as a part of the crew instead, Robin experiences a flashback to her childhood. Raised on an island of archaeologists, Robin and the rest of the islanders discovered the secret of the void century, a period in time that the government forbids anyone to know. To prevent knowledge of the void century from spreading the island and all of its inhabitants (sans Robin) were destroyed. Aokiji had allowed Robin to escape, challenging her to find friends and to live. Realizing that she had almost given up on both Robin decides she wants to live with the rest of the Straw Hats. Touched by their words, Franky reveals that the blueprints to Pluton have been hidden on his person and he promptly destroys them, giving CP9 no further reason to keep him in custody.

Unfortunately for the Straw Hats, Brook lost his shadow on the giant ship known as Thriller Bark and thus cannot accompany them outside the fog. Determined to have Brook as part of the crew, they go to Thriller Bark in order to get Brook's shadow back. Tony Tony Chopper, Usopp, and Nami serve as the first boarding party, and find that the ship is inhabited by zombies. When the rest of the Straw Hats follow suit they discover that Brook is not the only one who lost his shadow, and that much of the island-like ship's populace had their shadows stolen by Gecko Moria.

Moria mobilizes his zombies to capture the Straw Hats, who in turn try to reunite their two boarding parties. When they begin to engage Moria's forces in an effort to accomplish this goal, however, members of the crew mysteriously disappear. Brook explains this to be Moria's doing: he captures those that enter Thriller Bark, removes their shadows, and inserts them into patched-up corpses in order to reanimate them and create his own zombie army. The shadowless individuals are thus forced to stay out of the sunlight or risk their own destruction, meaning that most stay within the impenetrable fogs of Thriller Bark. With Sanji, Roronoa Zoro, and Monkey D. Luffy having lost their shadows and Nami similarly unaccounted for, the Straw Hats become determined to defeat Moria.

Luffy, unaware that Moria has joined Oars, runs into a group of pirates that have all lost their shadows. Seeing Luffy as hope for freedom, they provide him with the means to bring down Moria: a hundred shadows that they've managed to take back from the island's zombies. Luffy engages Oars, and with the help of his crew they finally defeat the giant. With Thriller Bark's course having been left unattended, the fog begins to thin and the sun begins to rise.

With the help of some fellow pirate crews the Straw Hats are able to rendezvous with Rayleigh, the former first mate of the pirate king. Optimistic that the Straw Hats will be able to emulate the pirate king's successes, he agrees to outfit their ship. While waiting for him to finish the job the Straw Hats must elude the Marines that have been sent after them, something that proves difficult when they keep running into copies of Bartholomew Kuma. To complicate matters they are found by Kizaru, an admiral of the Marines that has effortlessly dealt with all the pirates that earlier helped the Straw Hats. Just as they are about the be defeated by the combined forces, Rayleigh and the real Kuma arrive to intervene.

Luffy is found by Magellan, who uses his poisonous abilities to bring Luffy to the brink of death. Luffy's old friend Bon Clay locates the inmate Emporio Ivankov in order to heal him, but his recovery takes several hours. When he wakes up he finds that Ace has already been taken to Marine Headquarters for his execution. Determined to save him, Luffy rallies the support of Iva and two of Impel Down's most dangerous prisoners: Sir Crocodile and Jimbei. Together they lead a prison break that spreads throughout Impel Down.

The escaped prisoners make way for Impel Down's exit, dealing with the prison guards that try to stop them. When Magellan begins to thin their numbers, Blackbeard arrives to assist Luffy by holding him off. Even though he wants to take revenge on Blackbeard for Ace's capture, Luffy escapes with the other inmates. They procure a boat and set sail for Marine headquarters, Bon Clay staying behind to grant them passage. Meanwhile, with Ace's execution imminent, the reason for his death is given: it is not because he is a leading member of Whitebeard's pirate crew, but because he is the son of the pirate king Gol D. Roger.

Whitebeard, the strongest of the four strongest pirates in the world, arrives with his forces to free Ace. As he and the Marines begin their war to determine Ace's fate, the world watches the events of the battle unfold on television. Whitebeard's pirates are slow to gain any ground, and it is not until the arrival of Luffy and the other Impel Down escapees that they are able to break through the Marines' barricade. In an effort to eliminate all of them, the Marines box the pirates in and cut off the telecast, wishing to keep the world from witnessing the coming slaughter.

The pirates suffer heavy casualties. Whitebeard goes on the offensive, using his ability to create earthquakes to protect his men, but he too is mortally wounded. Despite the insurmountable odds, Luffy continues trying to reach Ace. His resolve causes the pirates to rally around him, giving him enough support to finally reach and rescue his brother. Having succeeded, the pirates begin to retreat and the Marines, determined to not completely lose control of the situation, focus their efforts on stopping Luffy and Ace. The worldwide telecast is restored just as Ace is dealt a fatal blow protecting Luffy from admiral Akainu.

Blackbeard absorbs Whitebeard's ability to create earthquakes and uses it to lay waste to Marine Headquarters. When the battle turns into a battle royale between Blackbeard, the Marines, and the retreating pirates, Red-Haired Shanks, Luffy's idol, intervenes and convinces all sides to stop fighting. As the world comes to grips with all that happened during the war, Hancock takes Luffy back to the island of women to recover. Luffy spends his time there reflecting on how he, Ace, and a boy named Sabo, despite having completely different backgrounds, came to consider each other brothers.

After Sabo was killed by a Celestial Dragon for being "human garbage", Luffy and Ace vowed to always look out for each other. With Ace now dead, Luffy believes he has nothing to live for. When he remembers that he still has his crew, Luffy makes plans to go back to the archipelago where they were last together. Rayleigh, having tracked Luffy down, advises against this; not only would they just be defeated again, but the World Government is now after Luffy because of his recent actions. Rayleigh suggests an alternative approach. They briefly go to and assault Marine Headquarters, something that becomes a major news story. The other Straw Hats, having been sent to different parts of the world by Kuma, quickly learn of this and find hidden meaning in Luffy's return.
