is one piece episode 496 filler?

Sabo, Luffy, and Ace continued their adventures and grew stronger day by day. They beat up a crocodile and then dressed up as a seller of Grey Terminal going into the Goa Kingdom pretending to be selling crocodile leather for the nobles to the guards.

They beat up some thugs and thieves on their way to the nobles and they realized it was the three kids. When they get inside the city, every noble was disgusted by their disguise for being so dirty.

They sold the crocodile for a lot of money. They then headed straight to a restaurant to eat ramen.
