Quick recap

Nami has a dangerous fever, and the crew looks for a doctor on Drum Island, a snowy kingdom with no king since the tyrant Wapol fled. The only doctor is Dr. Kureha, who lives atop a mountain. Luffy climbs the slope carrying Nami and Sanji, who was hurt in an avalanche. Up there they meet Chopper, a reindeer who ate the Human-Human Fruit. A flashback tells of his life with Hiriluk, a kindhearted quack who dreamed of curing the country. Wapol comes back to retake the castle, and Luffy beats him with Dalton's help. Hiriluk's pink snow fills the sky, and Chopper joins as the ship's doctor.
