**[00:00] ---**
**[00:00] ---**
**[00:16] ---**
Travel across the oceans of the world
**[00:20] ---**
Bellow a battle cry
**[00:23] ---**
Once your heart feels refreshed,
let the signal to set sail ring out
**[00:37] ---**
We've left the established course
**[00:40] ---**
Right now, we're rowing straight toward
**[00:44] ---**
The borderline between the sky and the ocean
**[00:49] ---**
In the dark depths of the ocean,
adventure holds its breath
**[00:55] ---**
Don't you have a good time just imagining it?
**[01:02] ---**
Travel across the oceans of the world
**[01:07] ---**
Bellow a battle cry
**[01:09] ---**
Once your heart feels refreshed,
let the signal to set sail ring out
**[01:23] ---**
"That feeling" I get when embarking
**[01:26] ---**
Is something I hope to remember always
**[01:30] ---**
If I can, I won't be afraid of anything
**[01:35] ---**
With our pulses racing,
let's go on a trip now
**[01:42] ---**
Shy hearts engrave the rhythm of adventure
**[01:48] ---**
Snatch up the treasure here and there
**[01:53] ---**
While laughing out loud
**[01:55] ---**
As we dash by like a noisy party
**[02:00] ---**
Make some waves...
**[02:03] ---**
Life is "Adventurous"
**[02:04] ---**
Be aware it's "Dangerous"
**[02:06] ---**
Who's gonna be "One of us"
**[02:08] ---**
And a trip goes on because
**[02:09] ---**
We da pirate of the "Mass"
**[02:11] ---**
To the West, To the East
**[02:13] ---**
Gotta find my way, Sail away
**[02:14] ---**
All the way to "One piece"!!
**[02:15] ---**
Stuff a dream into your empty chest
**[02:19] ---**
And spread your wings
**[02:22] ---**
If the wind blowing through
them dyes your heart
**[02:26] ---**
Let's press forward
**[02:28] ---**
Snatch up the treasure here and there
**[02:33] ---**
While laughing out loud
**[02:35] ---**
As we dash by like a noisy party
**[02:39] ---**
Make some waves...
**[02:46] ---**
Wealth, fame, power...
**[02:51] ---**
Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates,
**[02:53] ---**
once attained everything
this world has to offer.
**[02:56] ---**
The words he uttered just before his death
**[02:59] ---**
drove people around the world to the seas.
**[03:03] ---**
My treasure? If you want it, you can have it!
**[03:07] ---**
Find it! I left everything
this world has to offer there!
**[03:12] ---**
And so men rushed onto the
Grand Line in pursuit of romanticism!
**[03:17] ---**
The world has truly entered
a Great Pirate Era!
**[03:21] ---**
**[03:46] ---**
"The Promise from a Distant Day!
The Pirates' Song and a Small Whale!"
**[03:52] ---**
Okay, close the gate.
**[03:55] ---**
Are you sure we should leave Perona?
**[03:57] ---**
We can't take someone we can't find.
**[04:00] ---**
Sheesh! Where in the world did she go?
**[04:05] ---**
Phew! Okay, you can stop now.
**[04:07] ---**
Lift your invisibility power!
**[04:18] ---**
We're free and clear!
**[04:21] ---**
I was terrified we'd get
caught the whole time!
**[04:25] ---**
I never did find out what brought
Tyrant Kuma to Thriller Bark.
**[04:30] ---**
About that, Absalom.
**[04:32] ---**
Tyrant Kuma came to tell us the name
**[04:35] ---**
of the successor to the
former Warlord, Crocodile.
**[04:38] ---**
His successor...?
**[04:39] ---**
Yeah, but that's not the important part.
**[04:42] ---**
The successor is a man called Blackbeard.
**[04:45] ---**
He's pulled a truly nasty stunt.
**[04:48] ---**
Read that.
**[04:50] ---**
"Fire Fist Ace, 2nd Division Commander
of the Whitebeard Pirates...
**[04:54] ---**
...has been imprisoned in Impel Down"?!
**[04:57] ---**
It's well known that Ace is
one of Whitebeard's top dogs.
**[05:02] ---**
The government just got
their hands on a powerful card.
**[05:04] ---**
Definitely.
**[05:05] ---**
Depending on how they play it,
this could completely change the Pirate Era.
**[05:10] ---**
We've got a serious situation on our hands!
**[05:13] ---**
It's no time for Moria-sama
to be dead to the world.
**[05:17] ---**
I see where you're coming from,
**[05:19] ---**
but I'm more interested... in finding a wife.
**[05:23] ---**
Okay. Bring me a corpse that turns you on.
**[05:26] ---**
I don't want a zombie!
**[05:28] ---**
I wanna marry a living woman!
**[05:33] ---**
"One Day After Defeating Moria"
**[05:33] ---**
In the end,
**[05:34] ---**
everyone slept all day in that courtyard.
**[05:37] ---**
Well, sure. We were up all the
previous night fighting like mad.
**[05:40] ---**
I'm starving, Sanji!
**[05:42] ---**
Nibble on some cheese.
**[05:46] ---**
Cheese doesn't cut it!
Cheese doesn't energize me!
**[05:51] ---**
Then start hauling the ingredients
I need to the courtyard.
**[05:55] ---**
I'm sure the members of the Victim
Association don't want to budge.
**[05:58] ---**
So we're eating over there.
**[06:00] ---**
I'm sorry about that.
**[06:01] ---**
Everyone is just so happy to see
the sun for the first time in years.
**[06:04] ---**
They are crying tears
of joy while sunbathing.
**[06:07] ---**
Where did all of that energy come from?
**[06:10] ---**
It's so weird! It's a mystery!
**[06:12] ---**
Do you have enough food?
**[06:14] ---**
We have a mountain of additional food
**[06:16] ---**
on top of everything that was stolen.
**[06:18] ---**
We're doing great.
**[06:20] ---**
I wonder who did that. There are
some nice people out there!
**[06:24] ---**
And they even loaded your ship
with all of this treasure.
**[06:27] ---**
Even assuming it was Christmas,
this is far too generous.
**[06:30] ---**
This is bliss!
**[06:31] ---**
Oh, a glass armband!
**[06:35] ---**
This is cool!
**[06:36] ---**
I claim this!
**[06:38] ---**
H-Hey, you know what'll happen
if you take any of the treasure...
**[06:41] ---**
R-Right, Nami-san?
**[06:43] ---**
He can have it! There aren't any gems.
**[06:46] ---**
Huh? Is that how this works? Cool!
**[06:48] ---**
But I don't have a single
piece of treasure for you!
**[06:52] ---**
We wouldn't take treasure from
the people who saved us, Namizo.
**[06:56] ---**
Huh?
**[06:57] ---**
This is a nice knife!
**[06:59] ---**
What did you just say?
**[07:01] ---**
I'm sorry! This is out.
It's studded with gems.
**[07:04] ---**
Huh? It popped right out.
**[07:07] ---**
Who is Namizo?
**[07:08] ---**
Come to think of it, this is rather strange.
**[07:10] ---**
For some odd reason, I don't feel
like this is the first time we've met.
**[07:15] ---**
By any chance, are you Lola?!
**[07:17] ---**
Yep. Did I tell you my name?
**[07:22] ---**
So you're Lola!
**[07:24] ---**
I'm happy to see you again!
**[07:25] ---**
L-Lola...? Wh-Whoa, wait! Just a sec!
**[07:28] ---**
That boar zombie was her...?
**[07:31] ---**
You must be confused, huh?
I'll fill you in later.
**[07:35] ---**
Anyway, take this. It's
my way of thanking you.
**[07:38] ---**
Huh? Are you sure? You're thanking me?
**[07:40] ---**
Nami gave away some of our treasure!
**[07:45] ---**
I'm going on ahead. Is this everything?
**[07:48] ---**
A storm is coming!
**[07:50] ---**
Huh? A storm? Really?
**[07:57] ---**
This is the life!
**[07:59] ---**
The light is seeping into my body.
**[08:03] ---**
We're really alive.
**[08:10] ---**
Hey!
**[08:13] ---**
We brought food!
**[08:15] ---**
Straw Hat!
**[08:18] ---**
If you told us, we would have carried it!
**[08:19] ---**
We shouldn't let our savior work!
**[08:21] ---**
Is Zoro up?
**[08:23] ---**
He needs absolute rest,
so he's in the mansion.
**[08:26] ---**
Hey, wake up.
**[08:28] ---**
Chopper!
**[08:30] ---**
We brought the stuff you asked for.
**[08:32] ---**
Oh, thank you.
**[08:34] ---**
How is he doing?
**[08:36] ---**
I've never seen Zoro so badly hurt.
**[08:39] ---**
He nearly lost his life.
**[08:42] ---**
I think something must have happened...
**[08:46] ---**
...while we were unconscious.
**[08:51] ---**
Indeed. I sincerely doubt
that man simply left.
**[08:56] ---**
And it's strange how Luffy
is bursting with energy.
**[08:59] ---**
I have no idea what's up with that, either.
**[09:04] ---**
To be honest, I saw what went down!
**[09:07] ---**
I saw what happened from beginning to end!
**[09:10] ---**
I'll give you the dirt.
**[09:11] ---**
I'll fill you in on what happened!
**[09:13] ---**
Come.
**[09:14] ---**
Wait! No, wait a second!
**[09:16] ---**
--Hold up!
--Sanji?
**[09:20] ---**
Wait, why?! You were pretty cool yourself.
**[09:23] ---**
You were like, "Instead of the
swordsman's life, take mine."
**[09:26] ---**
Drop it!
**[09:27] ---**
Now start talking. What happened afterwards?
**[09:31] ---**
I want to know what happened
after I blacked out.
**[09:35] ---**
Okay...
**[09:49] ---**
That Warlord had yet
another shocking ability.
**[09:52] ---**
He pressed his paw against Straw Hat.
**[09:55] ---**
It repelled all of the "damage"
that Straw Hat had taken!
**[10:00] ---**
His damage...?
**[10:01] ---**
It was like a bubble of agony. And then...
**[10:05] ---**
If you want to take his place,
**[10:07] ---**
take all of his pain and
suffering unto yourself.
**[10:11] ---**
It will be impossible for you to survive
when you are already on the brink of death.
**[10:16] ---**
You will die.
**[10:18] ---**
Have a small taste.
**[10:30] ---**
Even the swordsman started
screaming bloody murder
**[10:32] ---**
when he touched a small portion of it.
**[10:35] ---**
I hate to say it, but I
thought he was a goner.
**[10:39] ---**
That's what makes it so touching!
**[10:41] ---**
It seriously made me cry!
**[10:43] ---**
I see. That explains why Luffy is
doing well while Zoro is bedridden.
**[10:49] ---**
That was rash!
**[10:54] ---**
Where did all of this blood come from?!
**[10:57] ---**
Hey, are you still alive?!
**[10:59] ---**
Where is he?!
**[11:01] ---**
What happened here?!
**[11:03] ---**
No...
**[11:06] ---**
Nothing happened...!
**[11:15] ---**
Come on! Let's tell everyone
about the Straw Hats' heroic story.
**[11:19] ---**
Yeah! I'm itching to tell them!
**[11:21] ---**
Wait!
**[11:23] ---**
Don't be insensitive.
**[11:25] ---**
He didn't risk his life out of
a desire to earn our gratitude.
**[11:28] ---**
What would happen if they learned that
Luffy's pain hurt a friend?!
**[11:32] ---**
Especially Luffy!
**[11:36] ---**
Just how badly are you
dying to tell everyone?!
**[11:39] ---**
We can't tell them?
**[11:41] ---**
You're killing me!
**[11:43] ---**
All that matters is that everyone is okay.
**[11:47] ---**
Come on! Let's go eat.
**[11:49] ---**
Th... Th-Th...
**[11:53] ---**
These guys are super cool!
**[11:56] ---**
Their captain is so lucky!
**[12:04] ---**
So that explains it.
**[12:09] ---**
Hey, you two!
**[12:12] ---**
Weren't you acting like you knew
what happened? What did you see?
**[12:21] ---**
Don't ask such an insensitive question.
**[12:23] ---**
All that matters is that everyone is okay.
**[12:27] ---**
I-I wanna tell them!
**[12:29] ---**
K-Keep that manly heroic story to yourself!
**[12:33] ---**
Wh-What gives?
**[12:36] ---**
Thank you for the food!
**[12:44] ---**
Delish! I've never eaten
such good food before!
**[12:47] ---**
Oh, here! Try this! This!
**[12:48] ---**
Yeah! It's been years since
we've eaten a decent meal.
**[12:52] ---**
I'm glad to be alive!
**[12:55] ---**
I cooked up a storm!
Don't let it go to waste.
**[13:01] ---**
To think I get to eat your cooking again!
**[13:04] ---**
This really is lip-smacking good!
**[13:08] ---**
Not that I have any lips!
**[13:11] ---**
You need to shut up and eat!
**[13:14] ---**
That skeleton is hilarious!
**[13:18] ---**
But honestly--oh, pardon me.
**[13:21] ---**
After eating until I was full
both yesterday and today,
**[13:25] ---**
I may have gained weight!
**[13:29] ---**
"Even though I'm a skeleton!"
I can't take it anymore!
**[13:33] ---**
Skeleton, you rock!
**[13:34] ---**
How come that skeleton is able to talk?
**[13:37] ---**
And he's a hoot!
**[13:38] ---**
You're a clever skeleton, you know that?
**[13:41] ---**
Why are you able to move around?
**[13:43] ---**
Hey, it doesn't really matter!
**[13:44] ---**
--Oh, dinner!
--Wow!
**[13:46] ---**
--Dinner!
--Yay!
**[13:48] ---**
--Dinner!
--Oh, baby!
**[13:49] ---**
--Dinner!
--Come on!
**[13:51] ---**
--Dinner!
--Super!
**[13:55] ---**
We didn't have a toast
and it still turned into a party.
**[14:02] ---**
He's sleeping right through all this noise...
**[14:05] ---**
And here he's the toughest guy in the crew...
**[14:26] ---**
Hey, Chopper! Look!
**[14:29] ---**
--Luffy!
--This is for Zoro.
**[14:32] ---**
Now drink away!
**[14:33] ---**
Don't give it to him!
**[14:34] ---**
Why not?! This will fix Zoro
right up, since it's his favorite.
**[14:38] ---**
What type of treatment is that?!
**[14:41] ---**
That won't work? Then how about meat?
**[14:43] ---**
Okay, okay. I'll gladly accept
your sentiment alone.
**[14:47] ---**
But only your sentiment!
**[14:54] ---**
There was a piano in this room?
**[15:08] ---**
Hey, I thought you only played the violin.
**[15:14] ---**
I can play most instruments.
**[15:16] ---**
Really? You're pretty good.
**[15:18] ---**
Um, I'd like to touch on
an earlier conversation.
**[15:22] ---**
To be honest, I also saw what happened.
**[15:27] ---**
I was greatly moved by what you two did.
**[15:32] ---**
Isn't it wonderful to have comrades?
**[15:36] ---**
Don't include me in that.
I merely made a fool of myself.
**[15:40] ---**
No, you bore the same resolve.
**[15:45] ---**
Would you like to pick a song?
I'll take a request.
**[15:50] ---**
Yeah? I can request anything?
**[15:52] ---**
In that case...
**[15:56] ---**
And then...
**[16:03] ---**
♪ Yo-ho ho ho, yo-ho ho ho... ♪
**[16:06] ---**
--Wait, didn't you just ask for a request?!

"Bink's Booze." I thought
I recognized the song.
**[16:59] ---**
This takes me back.
**[17:31] ---**
Whee! Yahoo! Keep it going!
**[17:39] ---**
Hey, Brook! I know this song.
**[17:42] ---**
Shanks and the guys used to sing it.
**[17:51] ---**
Yeah. A long time ago,
all of the pirates would sing this.
**[17:57] ---**
They sang it in good times and bad.
**[18:02] ---**
So you're gonna join our crew now, right?
**[18:08] ---**
After all, you've got your shadow back!
**[18:10] ---**
You can hit the seas without
fear of the sun, right?
**[18:13] ---**
About that. There was one thing
I neglected to tell you.
**[18:19] ---**
What is it?
**[18:20] ---**
I promised one of my comrades something.
**[18:25] ---**
I must tend to that first
or I will lose face!
**[18:32] ---**
Yeah. You're talking
about Laboon, aren't you?
**[18:35] ---**
I know all about it.
Franky and Robin told me.
**[18:39] ---**
Huh? Oh, that's right.
**[18:42] ---**
Laboon!
**[18:44] ---**
That is the name of the whale.
**[18:49] ---**
He is at a certain cape--
**[18:50] ---**
Listen, Brook! We met Laboon
at Twin Cape. Honest!
**[18:58] ---**
I already knew that Laboon
**[19:00] ---**
had been waiting there for his friends
**[19:02] ---**
to return for the past fifty years.
**[19:05] ---**
Skeleton, what's wrong?
The tempo is getting slow.
**[19:21] ---**
This is the symbol of
our promise to fight again.
**[19:27] ---**
Until we come back, don't remove that
mark by hitting your head. Got that?!
**[19:36] ---**
All right!
**[19:42] ---**
See ya, whale! I'm leaving now!
**[19:54] ---**
Boy, was I ever surprised when I learned
that you're the surviving member
**[20:00] ---**
of the band of pirates he's been waiting for.
**[20:09] ---**
And you still remember your promise to him.
**[20:14] ---**
I bet Laboon would be thrilled if he knew!
**[20:19] ---**
J-Just a moment, please!
**[20:24] ---**
I'm shocked! This is so sudden.
**[20:27] ---**
Is it true? Did you actually meet Laboon?
**[20:31] ---**
Yup.
**[20:32] ---**
Even though fifty years have passed?
**[20:35] ---**
Laboon is still waiting for us at that cape?
**[20:41] ---**
Are you telling the truth?!
**[20:42] ---**
Yup!
**[20:44] ---**
We also bore witness.
We saw him with our own eyes.
**[20:47] ---**
Yeah!
**[20:49] ---**
Was he well?
**[20:50] ---**
Sure was!
**[20:52] ---**
He was as big as a mountain.
**[20:54] ---**
I'd love to see him!
**[20:56] ---**
When we left him, the cutie
was about the size of a boat.
**[21:01] ---**
He had a stubborn streak, but he loved music.
**[21:05] ---**
He was a good boy...
**[21:08] ---**
Even now, I can still...
**[21:13] ---**
...picture him...
**[21:28] ---**
Is that right?
**[21:32] ---**
He's doing well?
**[21:46] ---**
I have never been this happy in my life!
**[21:57] ---**
Where did that whale come from?
It's following our ship.
**[22:01] ---**
It must have gotten separated from its pod.
**[22:03] ---**
The poor thing. The ocean is a big place!
**[22:06] ---**
It looks sad. Well, it's still just a calf.
**[22:12] ---**
Captain Yorkie, why don't we play a song?
**[22:16] ---**
Great idea, Brook! Hey, everyone!
Grab your instruments.
**[22:20] ---**
Okay!
**[22:22] ---**
