Chapter 148 summary
Usopp trudges through deep snow carrying Zoro on his back while delivering an impassioned speech meant for Vivi, until Zoro strikes him and forces him to realize the mistake. A villager directs the group toward a ropeway from Gyasta that leads to Drum Castle. At the castle base Wapol mocks the pirate flag flying from the tower, prompting Luffy to defend it from above. Wapol fires a cannon blast from his mouth that engulfs the tower, yet Luffy survives unharmed and declares the flag unbreakable because it represents conviction. Chopper watches in awe as Luffy rejects Wapol's authority. Sanji kicks one of Wapol's men but collapses when his back gives out, after which Chopper punches Wapol and faces Chess and Marimo. Luffy launches himself from the tower to join Chopper, claims Wapol as his opponent, and leaves the other two to the reindeer. Chopper announces his name as Tony Tony Chopper and pulls out a Rumble Ball while vowing to make the men pay for mocking Hiriluk.
