Ep 115. Big Opening Day Today! the Copy-Copy Montage!

In One Piece season 2 episode 115, titled "Big Opening Day Today! The Copy-Copy Montage!", the Straw Hat Pirates arrive at a new island called Long Ring Long Land. It's a circular island with a ring-like shape and a circumference of 3000 meters. The people there have a special tradition called the Long Ring Long Land Grand Prix, which is a series of competitions that take place over the course of five days. The winner of the race gets a prize known as the "Dynasty Diamond," a valuable jewel that has been in the possession of the island's royal family for generations.

The Straw Hats decide to participate in the Grand Prix to win the prize money, but they soon realize that their opponents are no ordinary racers. Each team has a bizarre ability that gives them an edge in the competition. For example, one team has members who can stretch their bodies like rubber (similar to Luffy), and another team has members who can transform their bodies into different creatures.

To level the playing field, Usopp comes up with a plan to create copies of the other teams' abilities using his new weapon, the "Impact Dial." The Dial is a small device that can store and release kinetic energy, allowing Usopp to mimic the powers of other characters. He creates a montage of himself copying different abilities, including stretching his body like rubber, transforming into a dinosaur-like creature, and even spitting fire. The other Straw Hats are impressed by his ingenuity and agree to use the copied abilities in the Grand Prix.

The first event in the Grand Prix is a foot race around the island. The Straw Hats begin the race in first place, using Luffy's stretching abilities to launch themselves ahead. However, the other teams catch up quickly and start using their own powers to overtake them. Usopp uses his Impact Dial to copy the stretching ability of one of the teams and manages to make up some ground. However, he soon discovers that copying abilities has its drawbacks, as each copy only lasts for a short period of time and drains his energy.

As the race continues, the Straw Hats face more challenges that require them to use their wits and teamwork to overcome. They have to cross a wide river, climb a steep mountain, and run through a maze filled with traps and obstacles. Meanwhile, the other teams use their powers to create shortcuts and eliminate their competition. The Straw Hats continue to use their copied abilities to keep up with the other teams, but they realize that they can't rely on them forever.

The episode ends with the Straw Hats finishing the first event of the Grand Prix, exhausted but determined to keep going. They know that they're up against tough opponents, but they're not going to give up without a fight. The Copy-Copy Montage may have given them a temporary advantage, but they'll need to rely on their own skills and strengths if they want to win the Grand Prix and claim the Dynasty Diamond.
