Screen 1 — Winter Storm & Nami's Illness
After leaving Little Garden behind, the Going Merry sails straight into a brutal winter storm.
Snow whips across the deck, the sea freezes over in patches, and icy winds cut through the air like blades.
Usopp clings to the mast.
Usopp: "WHY IS IT SUDDENLY WINTER!? WE WERE JUST IN A JUNGLE!"
Sanji shields the food supplies.
Sanji: "This isn't normal! The Grand Line is insane!"
Zoro shivers, annoyed.
Zoro: "Tch. Didn't expect this kind of weather."
Nami, pale and weak, collapses onto the deck.
Nami: "I… don't feel… good…"
Luffy rushes to her side.
Luffy: "Nami! What's wrong!?"
Sanji kneels beside her, checking her temperature.
Sanji: "She's burning up… This is bad!"
Sans steps forward, hands in pockets, his eye faintly glowing as he senses her condition.
Sans: "yeah… this isn't just a fever. her soul's flickering. we need a doctor, fast."
Papyrus gasps so loudly he almost falls off the deck.
Papyrus: "A DOCTOR!? WHERE DO WE FIND ONE IN THIS SNOWY MADNESS!?"
Vivi grips the railing, worried.
Vivi: "We have to land somewhere soon… or Nami won't make it."
Just then, a dark, wintry island appears through the blizzard — its mountains covered in snow, its villages tucked between frozen cliffs.
Luffy: "There! That island!"
Vivi: "That's Drum Island… They used to have the best doctors in the world."
Sans narrows his eye.
Sans: "used to?"
Vivi nods sadly.
Vivi: "Their king drove all the doctors away… except one."
The Merry pushes forward toward the frozen shore.
The Straw Hats are desperate.
Nami is falling fast.
And Drum Island is a land ruled by fear.
Screen 2 — Drum Island's Distrust
Before the Straw Hats can dock safely, they run into trouble.
Villagers on the snowy shore aim weapons at the crew, trembling with fear.
Villager: "Stay back! We don't trust pirates! Not after what Wapol did!"
Sanji: "Hey! We're not here to cause trouble!"
Usopp hides behind the mast.
Usopp: "WHY DOES EVERY ISLAND TRY TO SHOOT US!?"
Zoro sighs, annoyed.
Zoro: "We don't have time for this…"
Sans steps forward calmly, one hand raised.
Sans: "yo. maybe chill a bit? our navigator's sick."
A volley of warning shots fires toward the ship.
Sans responds instantly —
he summons a small Gaster Blaster that creates a protective barrier of light, deflecting the attacks without harming anyone.
Sans: "not trying to hurt you. just keeping my friends safe."
Papyrus dramatically shields Nami with his cape.
Papyrus: "FEAR NOT, NAMIIII! THE GREAT PAPYRUS SHALL PROTECT YOU!"
Dalton, a tall man with a serious face, steps between the villagers and the Straw Hats.
Dalton: "Stop! They're telling the truth."
He approaches the Merry, looking at Nami's pale face.
Dalton: "A sick girl…? Then you need help, not hostility."
Luffy jumps down to him without hesitation.
Luffy: "Please! We just need a doctor!"
Dalton nods.
Dalton: "There's only one doctor left in the entire kingdom… Dr. Kureha. But she lives at the top of Drum Castle, on that mountain."
He points to a towering snowy peak, barely visible through the storm.
Vivi: "That height… it's impossible in this weather."
Dalton: "Still your only hope."
The villagers finally lower their weapons and give the crew shelter for the night.

Luffy's Resolve
Inside a warm cabin, Nami shivers under blankets.
Sanji checks her temperature again, worry on his face.
Sanji: "Her fever's getting worse. We're out of time."
Luffy stands, face serious.
Luffy: "Then we'll climb that mountain."
Sanji nods without hesitation.
Sanji: "I'll come too."
They wrap Nami tightly in coats.
Sans stands beside them, eye glowing faintly.
Sans: "take care of her, okay? i can't teleport through storms this wild."
Papyrus salutes dramatically.
Papyrus: "GO, HEROES! I SHALL WATCH OVER THE SHIP WITH MY VERY BONES!"
Luffy lifts Nami onto his back.
Sanji steadies his footing.
Dalton watches them.
Dalton: "The mountain is filled with wolves and deadly winds. Are you sure?"
Luffy: "Doesn't matter. She's our friend."
With that, Luffy and Sanji step into the blizzard, Nami held between them, as the storm howls like a beast.
Upward.
Toward Drum Castle.
Toward the 141-year-old doctor who may be her only hope.
Screen 3 — The Shortcut to Drum Castle
The blizzard grows harsher.
Luffy and Sanji struggle forward, each step heavier than the last as they carry Nami up the deadly Drum Mountain.
Sanji: "These winds are insane…! Even I'm slowing down!"
Luffy: "I don't care… I'm not stopping!"
But the path disappears under fresh snow.
Wolves howl in the distance.
The temperature drops again.
Sans suddenly appears beside them, calmly brushing snow off his hoodie.
Sans: "yeah, this is getting ridiculous. you two will freeze before you hit the halfway point."
Luffy: "Sans! What are you doing here!?"
Sans smiles slightly, eye glowing blue.
Sans: "giving you a lift."
He snaps his fingers.
A giant Gaster Blaster materializes—not firing—but lowering its head like a platform.
Sanji blinks.
Sanji: "Wait… you can ride that thing!?"
Papyrus's voice echoes from below:
Papyrus: "SANS, MAKE SURE YOU DRIVE SAFE!"
Sans: "no promises."
Luffy climbs onto the blaster, holding Nami tightly.
Sanji jumps on too, impressed despite himself.
Sans taps the blaster like he's starting an engine.
Sans: "alright, big guy… take us up."
The Gaster Blaster's mouth opens—not to shoot—but to release a strong, steady beam of light upward, pushing them forward like a rocket sled through the storm.
They zoom past cliffs, over the wolf packs, and through the freezing winds.
Sanji: "THIS IS CRAZY! WE'RE FLYING!!"
Luffy laughs with childlike excitement.
Luffy: "THIS IS AWESOME!"
Sans stands calmly on the glowing platform.
Sans: "told you. shortcuts are kinda my thing."
In seconds, they reach the top of Drum Castle—something no human could've done in time.
Dr. Kureha bursts out of the castle doors, glaring.
Kureha: "What kind of maniac uses a glowing skull rocket to reach my house!?"
Luffy: "Doctor! Help Nami!"
Kureha's eyes soften when she sees Nami's fever.
Kureha: "…Bring her inside. Quickly."
Sans nods and steps back as the doctor takes over.
Sans: "she's in good hands now."
The snowstorm howls behind them, but inside the castle… Nami finally has a chance to recover.
Screen 4 — Meeting Tony Tony Chopper
Inside Drum Castle's warm halls, Luffy and Sanji wait anxiously as Dr. Kureha treats Nami.
Footsteps echo behind them — soft, careful steps.
A small blue-nosed reindeer peeks around the corner.
Luffy's eyes widen.
Luffy: "WHOA!! A TALKING REINDEER!!"
Sanji nearly drops his cigarette.
Sanji: "That's… actually kind of adorable."
Sans leans forward, eye glowing faintly with curiosity.
Sans: "huh. talking reindeer. didn't expect that. neat."
Papyrus suddenly bursts through the castle doors, slips on the floor, and points dramatically.
Papyrus: "SANS!! IT'S A MAGICAL ANIMAL WITH A BLUE NOSE! THIS IS THE GREATEST DAY OF MY ENTIRE SKELETON LIFE!"
Chopper squeaks and hides behind a table.
Chopper: "D-Don't look at me!! I-I'm a monster!!"
Kureha smacks Sanji and Luffy with a cane.
Kureha: "You scared him! He's shy, not dangerous!"
Sans kneels slightly, speaking gently.
Sans: "hey kid. you're not a monster. trust me… I'd know."
Chopper peeks out, confused.
Papyrus nods dramatically.
Papyrus: "YES! YOU ARE A CUTE, HONORABLE REINDEER! NOT A MONSTER! ACCEPT THIS COMPLIMENT!"
Chopper blushes, turning red.
Chopper: "S-Stop saying nice things to me, you idiots…!!"
(Secretly happy)

Chopper's Past
While Nami rests, Kureha tells the Straw Hats about Chopper's life.
We see flashbacks of a lonely blue-nosed reindeer constantly rejected:
• The reindeer herd chased him away for looking different.
• Humans threw stones at him, calling him a monster.
• Snowstorms, hunger, and fear followed him everywhere.
Then one day, Dr. Hiriluk found him — smiling warmly.
Hiriluk: "A blue nose? That's wonderful! Come with me, kid!"
He cared for Chopper, taught him how to talk, walk, and dream.
He believed a doctor's role was to heal hearts, not just bodies.
Chopper learned courage…
…until Hiriluk fell ill and made his final sacrifice to protect the kingdom he loved.
Chopper cried over the falling snow, holding Hiriluk's flag.
Chopper: "Doctor… I'll become a doctor… just like you…"
Kureha finishes the story with a small smile.
Kureha: "That fool of a doctor saved this country more than once. And this reindeer carries on his will."
Sans lowers his head respectfully.
Sans: "sounds like a good guy. bet he'd be proud."
Papyrus wipes imaginary tears.
Papyrus: "SUCH A SAD BUT HEROIC STORY! I WILL CHERISH IT FOREVER!"
Even Luffy stands quietly for a moment… then smiles.
Luffy: "Chopper. You're amazing."
Chopper blushes again and hides behind a chair.
Chopper: "D-Don't say things like that!! I'll get embarrassed!!"
But he's clearly happy..
Screen 5 — The Fall of Wapol & A New Doctor Joins
Just as Nami begins to recover, Drum Castle shakes from a loud metallic crash.
Sanji: "What now…!?"
Chopper's eyes widen in fear.
Chopper: "I-I know that sound… Wapol!!"
The doors burst open.
Wapol, the former king, stomps into the castle with his crew, shouting orders.
Wapol: "I've come to take back MY kingdom! Bow before your king!"
Luffy steps forward without hesitation.
Luffy: "Shut up. You abandoned this place."
Sans leans against a wall, unimpressed.
Sans: "yeah, dude. bad kings don't get welcome parties."
Papyrus points dramatically.
Papyrus: "BEGONE, O GREEDY SNOW-MUNCHER!"
Chopper trembles but stands beside Luffy.
Chopper: "Dr. Hiriluk wanted this island to be free… I won't let you hurt anyone!"
Wapol roars and tries attacking with his Munch-Munch powers, swallowing weapons and spitting out bizarre cannons.
Chopper leaps into Heavy Point, blocking the blasts with raw strength.
Chopper: "Luffy! Go for it!"
Luffy grins.
Luffy: "Got it!"
He stretches his arm back—
Luffy: "Gomu Gomu no… STAMP!"
WHAM!
Wapol is launched out of the castle, crashing into the snow and sliding far across the island until he disappears into the distance.
Papyrus cheers.
Papyrus: "HE SHALL NOT TROUBLE THIS LAND EVER AGAIN!"
Sans claps slowly.
Sans: "nice kick, luffy. 10/10 landing."
The island is finally free from tyranny.
---
Chopper's Decision
Dr. Kureha stands on the balcony, watching the chaos settle.
Kureha: "So, Chopper… what will you do now? Stay here forever? Or go find your own cure for the world?"
Chopper's eyes widen with shock.
Chopper: "M-Me… join pirates!?"
Luffy kneels.
Luffy: "Be our doctor, Chopper. We need you."
Sanji smiles.
Nami waves warmly.
Zoro nods.
Usopp gives a thumbs-up.
Papyrus salutes dramatically.
Papyrus: "JOIN US, CHOPPER! YOU SHALL BE OUR HEROIC HEALER!"
Sans gives a small grin.
Sans: "yeah. come with us, kid."
Chopper turns red from embarrassment.
Chopper: "D-Don't say it like that! Idiots!!"
But he's smiling.
Kureha wipes a tear, then kicks him down the stairs.
Kureha: "GO ALREADY! AND REMEMBER—A REAL DOCTOR HEALS ANYTHING!"
Chopper lands on the snow and runs after the crew, waving wildly.
Chopper: "WAIT FOR MEEE!!"
Luffy laughs as he grabs him and swings him aboard the Merry.
Luffy: "Welcome to the crew!"
Chopper: "THANK YOU!!!"
With a new doctor and stronger spirits, the Straw Hats set sail toward Alabasta — Vivi's homeland, where their toughest challenge yet awaits.
