"We're Here to Win! Luffy's Desperate Scream" is the 949th episode of the One Piece anime.
Short Summary[]
Luffy infects himself with the virus to gain the prisoners' trust. With this, the prisoners revolt against the guards and liberate Udon.
Long Summary[]
Babanuki's men continue firing Excite Bullets at the prisoners. The bullet wounds form black skull marks, spreading green blotches all over the body. Prisoners affected suffer excruciating, burning pain, fever and bleeding, and eventually become emaciated and zombie-like. The infected also touch the healthy prisoners, infecting them as well. Daifugo dubs the chemical weapon Queen's masterpiece, the Mummy virus. The infected prisoners blame the Nine Red Scabbards, as well as Luffy, for putting them through the ordeal by rebelling.
In response to this, Luffy hugs the infected prisoners, contracting the virus himself. Luffy calls out the weak-spirited prisoners for simply accepting the abuse from the Beasts Pirates, then states he has a promise to fulfill: to make Wano Country a place where the people never hunger again. He prompts the prisoners to either join him and liberate the country or continue to live a life of despair under Kaidou's regime.
Babanuki decides to try to kill all the prisoners at once, using an Excite Shot, a cannonball containing two hundred doses of the Mummy virus. He places it in his elephant's trunk to fire, but Luffy walks up to him and ties a knot in the elephant's trunk. With the cannonball still inside, it detonates in Babanuki's body, knocking him out. With the last of his strength, Luffy orders his new followers to take out the vice wardens. Following his orders, the prisoners turn on and defeat Daifugo and Solitaire.
Eight days before the Onigashima raid, Luffy scores his first victory, liberating Udon's prisoner mine.
