"A Turnaround Move! The Flames of Marco the Phoenix" is the 1012th episode of the One Piece anime.
Short Summary[]
Marco arrives on the battlefield and temporarily stops everyone from turning into Ice Oni. Chopper starts creating antibodies to the plague. Luffy and Jinbe are running through the 3rd floor to reach the roof. Franky gets in a fight with the Armored Division. Ulti and Page One follow Nami while cursing her.
Long Summary[]
Chopper, discovering that fire can be used against the Ice Oni virus, requires a large amount of fire for the infected people. Marco uses his Devil Fruit power to create blue flames, setting Chopper on fire. These flames are warm enough to stop the virus' spread, but not hot enough to burn him. With this, Marco sets all the infected people on fire, granting them temporary relief from the virus' effects. Chopper leaves with Minks Miyagi and Tristan to work on the antidote.
Queen attempts to turn the Beasts Pirates against the Straw Hats, claiming that Chopper does not intend to heal everyone with the antidote. While Hyougoro's forces hold the enemy army off, Drake defeats a vengeful Apoo. This allows Chopper to start working on a cure.
On the way to the rooftop, Luffy and Jinbe encounter a room with enemy Beasts Pirates. Jinbe holds them off as Luffy continues on his way. However, Jinbe is watched by an obscured enemy.
In the right brain tower, Franky battles the Armored Division with General Franky, but Sasaki intervenes and transforms into a triceratops. They both clash. Meanwhile, Ulti and Page One rampage in their beast forms. Page One cuts down Hihimaru with his claw. Although he perseveres and gets up, he is beaten a second time. Page One and Ulti then pursue Nami, Komachiyo and Tama.
Yamato, Momonosuke and Shinobu arrive at a storehouse to hide in. While Shinobu rests to take care of her wounds, they find a stone statue of a dragon. Yamato explains that the statue once decorated the front of the island, but it was damaged by Ace and left abandoned in the storehouse. Yamato explains that when Ace visited Wano Country, he attempted to kill Kaidou.
