Long Summary
Luffy is locked down in a room by Chopper, but he steals the keys and is able to get out. After Luffy starts chasing Chopper again, he suddenly stops because he smells Wapol is nearby.

Kureha keeps telling the past of Chopper to the guys: Chopper is running through the woods when he suddenly crashes to a tree, he then remembers about a day he heard Wapol's soldiers talking about a mushroom that could cure all diseases, requested by the Isshi-20. He proceeds to enter Hiriluk's place in search for the book where the mushroom is depicted. After finding the book, he takes on a journey to find the Amiudake. In his voyage, he encounters a herd of reindeer. One of the reindeer bumps him with his head, after standing up again, Chopper fights back. Later, he finally finds the fungus, but the herd is back to where he is. Hiriluk is experimenting in his laboratory when the door opens, he is amazed as Chopper enters extremely beaten up. With an eye closed and a broken leg, he delivers the saprophyte to his friend. The quack kneels down to him and hugs him as he cries, telling him he will become a great doctor because of his kind heart. After the quack doctor eats the mushroom soup, he leaves to the town, ordering Chopper to rest. In the town, soldiers are restricting the access to the Drum Castle because Wapol ordered to say that all the doctor on the castle where sick. Kureha arrives at the the Hiriluk's cave where Chopper shows the mushroom he fed, then a horrified Kureha beats Chopper and tells that the mushroom is poison. The reindeer tries to deny her claims but Kureha asures her claims and tells him that  their is no medicine that can work for all diseases that's doctors exist and  being kind is not enough to save people; you need medical skills and the training to use them. Chopper realizing what he did starts crying hysterically as a saddened Kureha calls him a poor fool.

Hiriluk arrives, launching two bombs at the guards. He then orders a guard to take him to the top of the mountain where the castle is. When he arrives, Wapol reveals that he lied about the Isshi-20 being sick, because it was just a trap for him, so he could be executed. Meanwhile, Chopper is running towards the mountain in order to save Doctor, but he arrives after he has already exploded. Dalton suppresses Chopper, because if he fights, he would only end dead. Dalton affirms he would carry with Hiriluk's legacy. Because he rebels in front of Wapol, he locks him down.

Luffy spots Wapol and others at the top of the mountain, Chopper lets Kureha know too of their arrival.
