is one piece episode 242 filler?

Just outside of the Galley-La Company, the mob of shipwrights is guarding every entrance into the building preparing for the said arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates. Chopper is continuing to watch as the shipwrights are surrounding the building and Zoro wants to know what's going on.

Chopper says that the shipwrights are just standing around but are armed. Nami urges everyone to be careful as the shipwrights can be deadly when push comes to shove and not to rush in.

Luffy agrees not to rush in and Zoro tells Chopper not to take his eyes off of the building as something may happen.
