Summary

Unsure how to bring down Oars, Sanji steps up and tries to reach whatever part of the giant still belongs to Luffy. Usopp gambles that his real face looks nothing like the wanted poster pinned to Oars' arm, but the zombie insists Sanji is the spitting image of it instead. Oars throws heavy punches that Sanji dodges, leaps in with Collier Frit only to be blocked by the giant's forehead, then catches the cook and crushes him until Usopp's Fire Bird Star forces a release.

Key Events

Scanning the posters again, Oars recognizes Usopp and Chopper and charges, only for Zoro to spring at him and get kicked aside. Franky opens fire, Oars shatters the ledge holding Franky and Brook and drops them to the ground, and Robin pins the giant with extra arms so Usopp can fire a salt ball straight into his mouth, though it proves too little to undo the revival. Meanwhile Absalom's sham priest declares him and Nami wed, but Hildon flies in and intercepts the kiss, getting blasted for the insult before later spotting Moria fleeing Luffy.

Notes

The episode scored 5.6 and ranked seventh that week. The clash between Sanji and Oars is lengthened compared with the source. A continuity slip appears after Zoro severs one of Oars' tusks, which can briefly still be seen attached. Moria continues harrying Luffy with his Brick Bat technique, and Hildon notes the dog and rooster zombies bickering like Sanji and Zoro rather than obeying Moria.
