The Isshi-20 decide to betray Wapol whom they have followed by fear and to rescue Dalton. Usopp tells Vivi that they should not worry about Luffy and Sanji, but when Dalton decides to go fighting against his former king whereas he is barely able to stand up, the Straw Hat, who was afraid of climbing the mountain a few seconds before, proposes to carry Dalton on his back.

Meanwhile in front of the castle, Wapol demonstrates the extent of his Baku Baku no Mi powers by transforming into a living canon house. Indeed, he has the hability to transform into everything he has eaten. He even starts to eat Chess and Kuromarimo fusionning them into a new adversary Chessmarimo.

To demonstrate his desire to take back his castle, he shoots at the symbol of his adversaries: Dr. Hiluluk's flag. Chopper is furious and run towards Wapol, however, by respect to his master wishes, he does not attack him,which is not the case with Wapol who does not hesitate to shoot the naive reindeer. Meanwhile, Luffy has reached the castle roof in order to put the pirate flag at its former place.

Trivia

 * This color spread was used in the second opening of the anime version.
 * Chessmarimo's words were overlapped by the One Piece publishers due to Oda's request, since Chessmarimo talks in two voices.(Obviously Chess and Kuromarimo's.) Due to this, many parents of One Piece readers sent letters of complaint to the publishing company, thinking the overlapping letters were a printing mistake. This is later on mentioned in an SBS.
