Episode 1057

"For Luffy - Sanji and Zoro's Oath" is the 1057th episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
As the situation around Onigashima escalates, fearing his awakening enhancements, as Sanji makes his decision, he contacts Zoro and requests for the latter to kill him if he loses control.

Long Summary
Apoo tries to convince X Drake to team up against Kaidou after the emperor defeats Luffy. He states that Kaidou has never been weakened like this so now is the time to defeat him. However, X Drake rejects his offer and attacks Apoo instead. The skirmish is interrupted by Yamato who is in a hurry to go to the armory and stop Onigashima from exploding.

Elsewhere, CP0 agents have come to take Nico Robin. However, the Minks attack the agents as a distraction, allowing Brook and Robin to escape.

Meanwhile, Sanji is fleeing from his fight against Queen after he noticed that his body had started mutating. His fears of turning into a cold-blooded Germa soldier like his brothers is slowly taking over him. He fails to notice a lady calling to him for help and he only regains his senses when he sees the said lady on the floor bleeding and looking at him in terror. He rushes to help her, but she begs him not to come closer.

O-some, as the woman is called, rushes to a nearby room where other geishas have been hiding. Sanji again offers to help O-some, but the other women chastise him for hurting a defenseless woman. The women drive him outside their hiding place where he finds Queen who had been looking for him.

Sanji is shaken by the thought of possibly striking a woman. He comes to the realization that his mutation was brought about by his use of his Germa suit. He wonders if Luffy would rather have an unreliable crewmate who is helpless against women or a cruel and heartless warrior who is able to bring anybody's head when he's ordered. He ponders what the future Pirate King needs and decides to destroy his Germa suit.

Using a Den Den Mushi, Sanji calls Zoro, who is in the middle of his fight against King. Unsure if his mutation will change him for good, he asks the swordsman, once the battle is won, to kill him if he ever loses his humanity. Zoro gladly accepts and tells Sanji not to die before then. Shortly after, Sanji turns seemingly invisible and hits Queen with his Hell Memories attack.
