In the 1108th episode of One Piece, viewers witnessed S-Snake utilizing her Love-Love Mellow ability to petrify York. She then proceeded towards Lilith’s group despite being commanded to stop. Despite Franky’s eagerness to fight her, Lilith was hesitant as she knew that the Seraphim were the most powerful beings among humans.

At another location, Zoro was confronted by S-Bear and S-Hawk, seemingly attacking him. But he soon realized that they were not just after him, as S-Hawk also targeted the unconscious Lucci and Kaku. Despite Shaka’s attempt to intervene, the Seraphim were not stopped.

Shaka’s conclusion was that one of the Vegapunks was giving orders to the others, which would explain the communication and visual malfunctions, as well as the fact that they were stuck in Labophase due to the frontier dome defense system. It was evident that someone was trying to eradicate them.

After coming to, Lucci and Kaku suggested a temporary ceasefire. They wished to aid in the battle against Seraphim, but were surprised by the disgusted looks on Luffy and Zoro’s faces.

The latest episode of One Piece, numbered 1108, also disclosed that CP5, CP7, and CP8 were being held captive in a laboratory capsule. They had been trapped for two months, with inadequate sustenance, and uncertain if they would ever be able to break free.

Their initial purpose was to investigate Egghead, but upon attempting to depart, their ships were destroyed by the Sea Beasts. This left them with no choice but to return to the island, where they were ultimately imprisoned.

Initially, they had suspected Vegapunk, but their assumption proved false when they saw Vegapunk himself in handcuffs before them. Vegapunk pondered if his studies on Ponegliffs had been revealed to the World Government. Meanwhile, more than one hundred ships of different sizes were currently en route to Egghead.

While taking a break at a factory in Fabiriophase, Sentomaru implored everyone to evacuate the island. He described the tragic fate of Ohara, where the entire population was eradicated by the World Government as punishment for their rebellion.

Sentomaru feared that a catastrophe even worse than the one at Ohara was on the horizon for Egghead.
