Long Summary
Usopp, seeing Dalton's determination, volunteers to carry him to the castle. Zoro interupts by taking Dalton off his back. Then the villagers reveal a ropeway to the castle claiming that they can fix it in 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, at the castle, Luffy holds up Hiriluk's flag deeming it unbreakable. Wapol, in fustration, shoots Luffy and the flag. When the smoke clears Luffy is still holding the flag. Chopper is staring in awe. Sanji is impatient so he attacks Wapol (only to be stopped by Dr. Kureha). Then Chopper unleashes a surprise attack at Wapol, only to be stopped by Chessmarimo.
