Skull Dome

Profile

The great dome-roofed castle atop Onigashima where Kaido and Orochi hold the Fire-Festival banquet and toward which the alliance raid converges. Captioned “Inside Kaido’s Castle” (p. 16); the infiltration teams are ordered to “Go inside the dome from here!!” (p. 13). Contains a stage / performance area where Orochi orders a crucifixion stand raised (p. 8).

Sub-areas

• Performance Floor (alias “Live Floor”) — the dome’s interior arena. The crew rank tiers are announced “on the live floor” by Queen (named Ch. 978); Ch. 982 Fukurokuju reports “four pirates on the performance floor” (p. 6).
• Right-Brain Tower, Central Hallway (captioned Ch. 998 p. 8) — where Franky’s General Franky fights Sasaki.
• Banquet Hall, Third Floor (captioned Ch. 998 p. 11) — Black Maria’s hall of women where Sanji is trapped.
• Big Cat Café, Fourth Floor (captioned Ch. 998 p. 14) — where Jinbe fights Who’s-Who.
• Storeroom (captioned “Storeroom, inside the dome” Ch. 998 p. 17) — where the discarded dragon statue is kept; Yamato hides Momonosuke here.
• Treasure Repository / Treasure Room (castle exterior, second floor, “beneath the roof” — captioned Ch. 1004 p. 16) — where the escaped, wounded Red Scabbards hide and are hunted for execution.

Key chapters

• Ch. 982 — first appearance: the night of the raid; banquet on the stage; infiltration teams ordered inside the dome.
• Ch. 983 — raid interior depicted & canonical name confirmed (“Skull Dome” / ドクロドーム, captioned “Performance Floor, Skull Dome”, p. 5): the Performance Floor stages Orochi’s “special event” (the display of Oden’s captive son); the Pleasure Hall on the Mountain Path is where Big Mom chases Nami’s group (p. 3); Gifters swarm the corridors as Luffy battles the Tobi Roppo Ulti & Page One.
• Ch. 995 — the Performance Floor (folded here per pin #18; captioned “Performance floor, inside the dome,” p. 8) stages much of the raid’s mid-tier fighting: Queen’s contact-spreading oni-plague, the Scratchmen Apoo vs X Drake brawl, Marco flying in as the Phoenix, and the Ulti/Page One vs Usopp/Otama fight.
