Episode 76

"Critical Counterattack! Usopp's Quick Wit and Kaenboshi!" is the 76th episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
Usopp frees Luffy from Miss Goldenweek's control. With Carue's help and his plan, Usopp helps Luffy rescue the others, who take on Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine. Nami and Vivi are able to fight Miss Valentine, while Usopp and Zoro take on Mr. 5. Luffy and Carue pursue Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek into the forest, where Mr. 3 attempts to trap them with one of his tricks. Meanwhile, Sanji wanders around the island in search of the others, only to stumble across a strange white cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Long Summary
Once back at the pedestal, Usopp finds Luffy drinking tea with Miss Goldenweek, while their friends are already completely covered in wax and their time is running out. He burns Luffy's shirt, upon which Miss Goldenweek had painted, using a flaming projectile. Luffy, again himself, attempts to destroy the pedestal but is interrupted by the returning Mr. 3, who creates himself a waxen battle suit. Usopp is finally struck down by Mr. 5's explosive shots, but is still able to make Carue run around the pedestal dragging behind it a rope, which Usopp soaks in flammable oil. Luffy, then, grabs Mr. 3 at his burning, three-shaped hairdo and uses it to inflame the rope, burning the large wax structure and freeing the others. As they emerge from the flames, Nami and Vivi defeat Miss Valentine and Zoro makes quick work of Mr. 5. Luffy and Carue chase after Mr. 3 and his partner and defeat them, respectively. Meanwhile, Sanji stumbles upon, a cabin made of wax, which is Mr. 3's hideout. Suddenly, in the cabin, Sanji receives a call from Mr. 0.
