[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] ---
    
[03:27] ---
    Isn't it a quiet night?
[03:30] ---
    I'm on watch, but it's
    been calm all night long.
[03:35] ---
    There is no need to man the helm.
[03:37] ---
    I'm working myself to the bone for nothing.
[03:42] ---
    Never mind that I'm all bones!
[03:47] ---
    I'm so bored.
[03:51] ---
    Laboon...
[03:53] ---
    You know Luffy-san and his buddies?
    I've joined their crew.
[04:02] ---
    They are great people.
[04:05] ---
    But they are more than just that.
[04:08] ---
    I found something incredible
    earlier this afternoon!
[04:16] ---
    It told of Luffy-san and his crew's fearsome
    adventures and their battle-filled days.
[04:23] ---
    Now that I have joined them,
[04:27] ---
    I must prove that I am worthy
    to call myself a crewmate!
[04:31] ---
    Wouldn't you agree, Laboon?
[04:35] ---
    Good morning, everyone!
[04:37] ---
    I'll wake you up with a song.
[04:40] ---
    --♪ White handkerchief, ♪
    --Shut up!
[04:43] ---
    --♪ don't let him find you ♪
    --The sun hasn't risen yet!
[04:44] ---
    --♪ Run for it ♪
    --Let me catch some more Z's!
[04:47] ---
    --♪ White handkerchief... ♪
    --Forget Brook. Someone make
    Luffy stop snoring!
[04:54] ---
    "Brook's Great Struggle! Is the Path
    to Becoming a True Comrade Rigorous?"
[05:03] ---
    What's the plan, Navigator?
[05:05] ---
    If we use the paddle, we could keep
    moving through these calm waters.
[05:10] ---
    Based on the weather,
    this lull should only last today.
[05:14] ---
    Then we don't need to use our precious cola.
[05:18] ---
    This is good!
    Sanji, your cooking really is the best!
[05:24] ---
    Robin-chan, have a second
    helping of the seafood salad.
[05:28] ---
    Thank you.
[05:31] ---
    What's gotten into you, Brook?
[05:33] ---
    Why have you been so hyper all morning?
[05:35] ---
    Did something exciting happen, Brook?
[05:39] ---
    He said that he saw our ship's log
    while he was on watch yesterday.
[05:43] ---
    Right! I just so happened
    to read a small portion of it.
[05:47] ---
    To be honest, it left me astonished!
[05:50] ---
    I haven't been able to
    settle down ever since.
[05:52] ---
    The incident at Thriller Bark was
    only the tip of the iceberg for you!
[05:56] ---
    You stopped a civil war in
    the desert kingdom, Alabasta.
[05:59] ---
    You had a grand adventure
    on the legendary sky island!
[06:02] ---
    Furthermore, you took on
    the World Government in a
[06:06] ---
    massive fight at Water Seven!
[06:08] ---
    I was so surprised, I
    nearly had a heart attack!
[06:11] ---
    Oh, but I don't have a heart.
[06:17] ---
    Yeah. I wonder what sort of stories
    will get added to the log.
[06:21] ---
    Brook, your name is going to
    start appearing in it now, too.
[06:25] ---
    About that! Now that I am your crewmate,
[06:29] ---
    it is imperative that I make myself useful!
[06:32] ---
    I get why you're eager to work hard,
[06:35] ---
    
    but first let me give you a word of advice.
[06:38] ---
    I'd love to hear it, Nami-san!
[06:41] ---
    With this crew, never let your
    guard down during a meal.
[06:45] ---
    Got it! I, Quick Draw Brook, shall be
[06:48] ---
    
    ready for the enemy to strike at any time!
[06:52] ---
    Apparently we didn't warn you soon enough.
[06:54] ---
    I claim those noodles!
[06:57] ---
    P-Please wait a second! Luffy-san!
[07:01] ---
    They're good!
[07:02] ---
    I should not have let my guard down,
    even for a moment.
[07:04] ---
    Very well! I shall work
    myself to the bone to become
[07:08] ---
    a true pal as soon as possible!
[07:11] ---
    But I'm already nothing but bones...
[07:16] ---
    Sanji-san!
[07:17] ---
    I appreciate it. Since
    you're washing the dishes,
[07:21] ---
    I can take my time with Nami-san's tea.
[07:25] ---
    As your pal, I am dying to help
    everyone in extravagant ways,
[07:31] ---
    but I'll do anything to make
    myself useful for the time being.
[07:35] ---
    That's a great attitude.
[07:37] ---
    Since I'm a skeleton, I should work
    till I'm bone tired on the small stuff.
[07:42] ---
    Well, I'm going to give Nami-san her tea.
[07:45] ---
    Ah! Sanji-san, where do these go?
[07:48] ---
    Oh, over in the...
[07:53] ---
    Don't drop them, even if it kills you!
[07:55] ---
    But I'm already dead!
[07:58] ---
    --And "kaboom!"
    --Don't say that!
[08:01] ---
    Hold this!
[08:09] ---
    Splendid!
[08:10] ---
    Don't give me that!
[08:12] ---
    I can't trust you to do the dishes!
[08:14] ---
    Oh, then I'll take this
    tea to Nami-san instead.
[08:17] ---
    Wait! Wait! I was gonna take it to her!
[08:25] ---
    Nami-san, I've brought you some tea.
[08:28] ---
    Come in!
[08:29] ---
    May I see your panties?
[08:32] ---
    --Bam!
    --That came out of nowhere!
[08:37] ---
    Is that a nautical chart?
[08:39] ---
    We've been pretty busy lately.
[08:41] ---
    This is a great chance to work on it,
    since the ship isn't going anywhere.
[08:46] ---
    Isn't it your dream to
    draw a map of the world?
[08:50] ---
    Right. I want to navigate
    across the oceans of the world
[08:55] ---
    and make a world map based on what I've seen.
[08:57] ---
    That's wonderful!
[08:59] ---
    If there is anything
    I could do to help, please let me know.
[09:04] ---
    Oh, would you like another cup?
[09:06] ---
    Thank you.
[09:08] ---
    That sentiment is enough for now.
[09:10] ---
    You are both beautiful and humble!
    Nami-san, you truly are wonderful!
[09:15] ---
    Really! I'm not that great.
[09:17] ---
    No, you truly are--ouch! Hot! Hot!
[09:20] ---
    Whoa, are you okay?
[09:22] ---
    My, I nearly burned my fingers.
[09:25] ---
    Not that I have any skin to burn!
[09:32] ---
    My map!
[09:33] ---
    What have I done?!
    That was horribly careless of me.
[09:36] ---
    Don't you worry!
[09:37] ---
    Look! I wiped it clean.
[09:40] ---
    Yeah, you wiped it clean of everything...
[09:43] ---
    That's not what I wanted!
[09:45] ---
    I'll be taking my leave!
[09:50] ---
    I get the feeling that I won't be
    the least bit useful if this keeps up...
[09:55] ---
    Hey, Brook!
[09:57] ---
    Luffy-san?
[09:59] ---
    These two are about to do something neat.
[10:02] ---
    You should watch.
[10:04] ---
    Uh, okay...
[10:07] ---
    Chopper-san, what are you doing up here?
[10:09] ---
    I'm drying these herbs in the sun,
    since the weather is so nice.
[10:13] ---
    You see, Franky is gonna test his new weapon.
[10:18] ---
    All right! This is the long-distance
    "Super Franky Cannon."
[10:21] ---
    It runs on cola energy.
[10:24] ---
    Its range is several times
[10:26] ---
    that of a conventional cannon.
    Plus it's super accurate!
[10:29] ---
    Combined with my sniper skills,
    we'll be totally unstoppable!
[10:35] ---
    This is exciting!
[10:37] ---
    I have butterflies in my stomach!
[10:38] ---
    I know, right?
[10:40] ---
    Excuse me! Let me know if there
    is anything I could do to help.
[10:43] ---
    All right. In that case, please get
    another barrel of cola to play it safe.
[10:48] ---
    Not a problem. It would be my pleasure!
[10:54] ---
    This must be it.
[10:57] ---
    Here's the barrel of cola!
[10:58] ---
    Great! Now if you could pour it in.
[11:00] ---
    Certainly!
[11:02] ---
    Target: That rock.
[11:04] ---
    Got it! Locking on to the rock at 2 o'clock.
[11:09] ---
    --Fire!
    --Firing!
[11:17] ---
    --Huh?
    --That's strange.
[11:19] ---
    Usopp, increase the pressure.
[11:21] ---
    Okay, you've got it.
[11:27] ---
    Man, this doesn't look good.
[11:33] ---
    Crap!
[11:39] ---
    This was a huge flop!
[11:41] ---
    It should have worked.
[11:46] ---
    This is kinda salty.
[11:50] ---
    Something is mixed with the cola.
[11:52] ---
    This is soy sauce.
[11:57] ---
    What's the matter, everyone?
[11:58] ---
    Show a little remorse!
[12:00] ---
    You mistook a soy sauce barrel
    for a cola barrel, didn't you?!
[12:03] ---
    Oh, you're right! This
    was a soy sauce barrel.
[12:07] ---
    I cannon believe I made that mistake!
[12:09] ---
    Shut up, you jerk!
[12:11] ---
    --I'm terribly sorry!
    --Why did you grab a soy sauce barrel?!
[12:12] ---
    --I'm sorry!
    --This is no time for puns!
[12:14] ---
    Brook, you're hilarious!
[12:16] ---
    --Don't give me any "I'm only bones" crap!
    --Now I'm all sticky!
[12:19] ---
    Aw, I have to wash all of
    the herbs I had set out to dry.
[12:23] ---
    This meat tastes great
    with the soy sauce and cola!
[12:27] ---
    Can you find a bright side to anything?
[12:30] ---
    Everything I try ends up going horribly awry.
[12:35] ---
    Excuse me, Zoro-san...
[12:50] ---
    This is no time to watch in admiration!
    I'm a fellow swordsman.
[12:56] ---
    Isn't this meditation?
[12:59] ---
    You enter a state of nothingness
    while making your mind and body one.
[13:03] ---
    I shall join you.
[13:09] ---
    Excuse me, Zoro-san...
[13:11] ---
    I am fully aware that it is improper to
    talk during meditation sessions, but...
[13:16] ---
    I don't mind.
[13:18] ---
    --Well, you see...
    --What is it?!
[13:20] ---
    I need to use the restroom.
[13:23] ---
    I didn't need to know that! Head on over--
[13:25] ---
    --The thing is...
    --What?
[13:27] ---
    ...my legs went numb, so I can't stand!
[13:29] ---
    Do you have any muscles to go numb?!
[13:31] ---
    Zoro-san, I'm on the verge
    of having an accident.
[13:34] ---
    For real? W-Wait, hold it!
[13:36] ---
    --I'm gonna leak! It's coming!
    --I'll take you! W-Wait! Hey, hold it in!
[13:42] ---
    Despite what I want, I've
    been nothing but a nuisance.
[13:46] ---
    This is awful!
[13:49] ---
    Robin-san!
[13:51] ---
    Excuse me...
[13:53] ---
    Is there anything I could
    do to be of assistance?
[13:57] ---
    Not in particular.
[14:00] ---
    Is that right?
[14:01] ---
    Brook, why are you so anxious?
[14:05] ---
    Anxious?
[14:06] ---
    I get the feeling you're afraid
    of something.
[14:09] ---
    Am I mistaken?
[14:12] ---
    You are absolutely right, Robin-san.
[14:15] ---
    That's right. I am terribly
    anxious and scared.
[14:21] ---
    When Luffy-san first asked me
    to join his crew, I was thrilled!
[14:26] ---
    Those simple words filled me with joy.
[14:31] ---
    And then my heart danced
[14:32] ---
    with excitement when I defeated
    Oars alongside everyone.
[14:38] ---
    May I join your crew?
[14:41] ---
    Yeah, sure.
[14:42] ---
    What?!
[14:45] ---
    But does he truly want me in his crew?
[14:48] ---
    If we continue to head toward the New World,
[14:50] ---
    I have no doubt that powerful foes and
    trials beyond our imagination await us.
[14:54] ---
    I'm afraid that I will be
    both useless and a hindrance.
[15:01] ---
    And if that proves true, I
[15:06] ---
    might get kicked off the ship!
[15:09] ---
    That's right... I'm afraid
    of losing my friends again
[15:12] ---
    and returning to that
    painfully long life of solitude.
[15:17] ---
    I was...
[15:20] ---
    ...also anxious for the longest of times.
[15:38] ---
    I was...
[15:41] ---
    ...also anxious for the longest of times.
[15:46] ---
    I was constantly afraid that I
    was unworthy to be their friend.
[15:50] ---
    That is why I believed I could
    become worthy of them
[15:55] ---
    by throwing away my life for their sake.
[15:58] ---
    Robin-san...
[16:01] ---
    No matter how far I go on the sea,
[16:03] ---
    I have a huge enemy that I can't shake off...
[16:07] ---
    ...because the world and
    its darkness are my enemy!
[16:11] ---
    That's why I didn't want
    you to come to rescue me!
[16:14] ---
    If I'm going to die someday anyway,
[16:16] ---
    I want to die right here, right now!
[16:20] ---
    I didn't realize that was how you felt...
[16:23] ---
    But I was mistaken.
[16:27] ---
    That isn't what it means to be a true friend.
[16:30] ---
    Robin-san...
[16:33] ---
    I'm sure you'll be fine.
[16:37] ---
    Oomph!
[16:39] ---
    Brook, we've got food! It's lunchtime.
[16:42] ---
    Luffy-san...
[16:43] ---
    Sanji worked extra hard to make
    a full-course seafood lunch!
[16:47] ---
    I just know it'll be good!
[16:49] ---
    Luffy-san!
[16:51] ---
    What's keeping you? Get a move on!
[16:55] ---
    Are you absolutely certain I'm welcome?
[16:59] ---
    
    That I may join the Straw Hat Crew?
[17:02] ---
    Yup.
[17:03] ---
    Jeez, give it some thought!
[17:06] ---
    I decided to let you join,
    so I'm glad to have you.
[17:15] ---
    Now forget about that. Let's eat! Food!
[17:18] ---
    Everyone's waiting!
[18:27] ---
    Even the Straw Hats have
    calm days like this...
[18:46] ---
    Usopp, let's catch dinner!
[18:48] ---
    Yeah!
[18:51] ---
    How many years--no, decades--has it been
[18:56] ---
    
    since I enjoyed such a carefree nap?
[19:01] ---
    Hey, Brook! Are you gonna sleep forever?
[19:04] ---
    Wake up! We spotted an island!
[19:06] ---
    It's a summer island! It has a beach!
[19:08] ---
    Huh? What?
[19:10] ---
    When I was wandering the ocean alone,
[19:12] ---
    I would dream about my old
    friends and Laboon in my sleep.
[19:20] ---
    I would jump awake with happiness,
[19:24] ---
    only to face the painful reality
    filled with despair and solitude.
[19:30] ---
    Sleep was by no means a peaceful escape.
[19:35] ---
    But if I listen carefully now...
[19:52] ---
    So, Robin, what do you
    think of these outfits?
[19:56] ---
    Well, I think you'd look
    good in this and this.
[20:00] ---
    I knew it!
[20:15] ---
    Perfect.
[20:47] ---
    My pals are near me.
[20:50] ---
    Even dead and skeletonized...
[20:54] ---
    ...I'm truly glad to be alive!
[22:14] ---
    This is a short break time
[22:16] ---
    before the next adventure
    eventually falls upon us.
[22:24] ---
    Yes, let your weary bones rest.
[22:30] ---
    Laboon,
[22:33] ---
    it looks like I will have
[22:36] ---
    a slew of stories to
    share when we meet again.
[22:40] ---
    I hope you're looking forward to them!
[22:55] ---
    The wind has picked up.
[22:59] ---
    Everyone!
[23:04] ---
    Guys!
[23:05] ---
    Oomph!
[23:07] ---
    It's about time we set out.
[23:10] ---
    Yeah!
[23:11] ---
    I promise to work my butt off!
[23:16] ---
    But I'm a skeleton, so I don't have a butt.
[23:25] ---
    We've reached the Red Line at last!
[23:27] ---
    We'll finally get to see Fishman Island.
[23:28] ---
    Where are the mermaids?
[23:31] ---
    I don't see any mermaids,
    but there is a sea monster.
[23:34] ---
    The jerk!
[23:35] ---
    Something popped out
    when I whacked its stomach.
[23:35] ---
    
[23:39] ---
    Could that be a--?!
[23:40] ---
