Short Summary
Luffy, Chopper, Hyogoro, Raizo, Kikunojo, and Kawamatsu overwhelm the Beasts Pirates, but the guards shoot the prisoners with special bullets, which inflict a debilitating virus known as Mummy onto them that is spread through touch. As the prisoners move to subdue Luffy's group, Luffy unexpectedly grabs them and becomes infected. He tells them that their conditions will only worsen the longer Kaido stays in power, and if they want to get out of this they should not stand in his way. Babanuki prepares to fire an Excite Shell into the crowd, but Luffy ties up his elephant's trunk, engulfing him in an explosion. The prisoners then decide to join Luffy and rebel, and they defeat Daifugo as Luffy's alliance conquers Udon.
