"Devoting His Life! Roger's Adventure" is the 967th episode of the One Piece anime.
Short Summary[]
Under the Roger Pirates, Oden ventures through many distant lands, reaching Skypiea, Water 7, Sabaody Archipelago and Fish-Man Island. He finds Poneglyphs along the way that bring his crew closer to reaching the end of the Grand Line.
Long Summary[]
Roger contracted a terminal illness and knew he had under a year to live. Still, his crew kept going with their adventures, merrily singing Binks' Sake along the way to a Sky Island. The Roger Pirates went up a Knock Up Stream, entered Skypiea, and found the ancient golden city of Shandora. There they found its national treasure, the belfry bell as well as a Poneglyph. The Poneglyph told of a certain weapon called Poseidon located in Fish-Man Island. They decided not to steal the bell, but left behind a carved message stating that Roger had reached a sky island. They continued on their travels and left Skypiea, using an octopus balloon to get the ship down safely.
There was a Road Poneglyph in both Zou and Wano Country, and Roger had already gotten a copy of another Poneglyph belonging to Big Mom, so the Roger Pirates had already located three of the four Poneglyphs needed to find the final island. They set sail for Water 7, to get their ship repaired, where they met Tom, their ship's creator.
They continued their adventure to the Red Line, finding the Sabaody Archipelago and, under the sea, Fish-Man Island. Its king, Neptune, explains that the weapon Poseidon is a certain mermaid born every several hundred years with the ability to control Sea Kings. Shyarly, the kingdom's fortune teller, states that this mermaid would be born in ten years. Roger decided to continue on his journey, his crew still cheerfully singing Binks' Sake.
