Episode 1023

"Preparations OK! Chopperphage Nebulizer" is the 1023rd episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
Chopper's cure named the Chopperphage works, and he uses a cannon to fire the antidote into the crowd and save everyone. Meanwhile, the Nine Red Scabbards awaken to find Oden greeting them.

Long Summary
Marco struggles against King and Queen, who attack him from two angles. He is sent crashing into a wall. Meanwhile, Yatappe and Tsunagoro hesitate to kill Hyogoro and Omasa, reluctant to kill their comrades.

The Waiters and Pleasures beg Queen to save them. Queen berates them, calling them useless to the crew since they have no special abilities. He tells them that they should simply succumb to the virus. He also tries to turn the pirates against Chopper, claiming that he cured himself and escaped.

After taking the antidote, Chopper is cured, and the ice crumbles off his skin. Delighted, he prepares to administer the cure to the people. Just before Yatappe could behead Hyogoro, Chopper kicks the sword away. He sprays the antidote sample into Hyogoro's mouth, curing him as well.

Then, Miyagi and Tristan load and fire a cannon. The cannonball, named the "Chopperphage," releases a pink mist into the live floor, curing all those who inhale it. Chopper confronts a furious Queen for his abhorrent use of a virus in war. Queen fires bullets at Chopper but the Pleasures rush to his aid. Since Chopper saved them, the Pleasures decide to join his side, fighting Queen. Chopper transforms into his Monster Point form and strikes Queen.

On the rooftop, Luffy rejoins the battle against Kaidou. Meanwhile, in the treasure repository, the Nine Red Scabbards wake up to find their wounds bandaged. They open the door to find, to their surpise, Oden greeting them.
