Chapter 1104 is titled "Thank You, Daddy".
| Short Summary |
As Kuma attacks Saturn, that latter is surprised that Kuma's self-destruct switch had not been activated yet which he first used after Kuma was sprung by the Revolutionary Army. Vegapunk reveals that he did not install one, but Kuma would have shutdown instead, but believes it may have something to do with his Buccaneer background. However, Saturn recovers and tries to eliminate Kuma and Bonney, but Sanji and Franky intervene. In response, Saturn orders a Buster Call on Egghead.

Vegapunk admits that Kuma's self-destruct was not a bomb, for fear of it being weaponized, but should still have deactivated him.
Vegapunk believes that Kuma's buccaneer nature may have been involved in it.

Some of the Marines note that Luffy has disappeared.
Saturn regenerates his injuries and prepares to kill Kuma and Bonney, but Sanji stops him.
