    ame agari no sora wo aogu tabi
[00:40] ---
    Every time I look up to
    the sky after the rain
[00:45] ---
    nakimushi datta koro no boku wo omou
[00:45] ---
    I think back to when I was a crybaby
[00:51] ---
    dareka no senaka wo gamushara ni oikaketa
[00:51] ---
    I was chasing somebody's back blindly
[00:59] ---
    "tsuyoku naritai" tte
[00:59] ---
    Thinking "I want to be stronger"
[01:01] ---
    ima wa kaze ni kieta "arigatou"
[01:01] ---
    The word "thank you" has
    faded into the wind now
[01:07] ---
    boku wa tsuyoku nareteiru no kana?
[01:07] ---
    Am I getting stronger?
[01:12] ---
    kotae wa mada desou ni nai kara sa
[01:12] ---
    I don't know the answer yet
[01:18] ---
    yappari mada aruiteiku yo
[01:18] ---
    That's why I'll keep walking ahead
[01:23] ---
    saa yukou
[01:23] ---
    So let's go
[01:25] ---
    tachidomaru koto naku

[01:29] ---
    Without giving up to the flow of time
[01:34] ---
    nando mo tachimukai tsuzukeyou
[01:34] ---
    I'll keep getting back up
[01:40] ---
    taisetsu na mono ushinaitakunai kara
[01:40] ---
    Because I don't want to
    lose something precious
[01:45] ---
    boku no naka ni nagareru koe wa
[01:45] ---
    The voice inside of me
[01:50] ---
    zutto zutto boku wo sasaeteru
[01:50] ---
    keeps sustaining me
[01:56] ---
    itazura na ame ga jama suru kedo
[01:56] ---
    Wicked rain will get in my way
[02:01] ---
    nigedasanai kara
[02:01] ---
    But I won't walk away
[02:09] ---
    saa yukou
[02:09] ---
    So let's go
[02:11] ---
    Tachidomaru koto naku
[02:11] ---
    Without stopping
[02:15] ---
    nagareru toki ni makenai youni
[02:15] ---
    Without giving up to the flow of time
[02:20] ---

[02:20] ---
    I'll keep getting back up
[02:26] ---
    taisetsu na mono ushinaitakunai kara
[02:26] ---
    Because I don't want to
    lose something precious
[02:31] ---
    shinjita sono saki e to...
[02:31] ---
    To the future I believe in...
[02:47] ---
    The time is the Great Pirate Era.
[02:50] ---
    Countless pirates fight
    desperately for the One Piece,
[02:56] ---
    the great treasure left behind by
    Gold Roger, King of the Pirates.
[02:59] ---
    Monkey D. Luffy, a boy whose body turned
    to rubber after he ate the Gum-Gum Fruit,
[03:04] ---
    also takes to the sea to become
    the next King of the Pirates.
[03:07] ---
    As Luffy and his friends
    overcome numerous adventures,
[03:11] ---
    the World Government is less and
    less able to ignore their existence.
[03:17] ---
    This is exciting!
[03:19] ---
    What kind of adventure
    is waiting for us next?!
[03:23] ---
    The crew, on its way to the New World,
[03:26] ---
    will speed along the Grand Line again today!
[03:34] ---
    After losing his brother Ace during
    the War of the Best against the Navy,
[03:38] ---
    Luffy was consumed with unbearable sorrow.
[03:42] ---
    However, 10 years ago,
[03:46] ---
    Ace, Sabo and Luffy were competing
[03:49] ---
    to hunt the big tiger to
    decide who would be captain.
[03:56] ---
    They met a former pirate
    - Naguri who knew Roger,
[03:59] ---
    and he agreed to give Luffy
    tips on how to become a pirate.
[04:09] ---
    "The Battle against the Big Tiger!
    Who is Going to be Captain?!"
[04:30] ---
    Why do you always do that?!
[04:33] ---
    You always attack so openly!
[04:41] ---
    Shut up! What about you?!
[05:03] ---
    That was horrible!
[05:05] ---
    Let's put some poisonous
    mushrooms in the bait tomorrow.
[05:10] ---
    Oh, wait a minute.
[05:12] ---
    He's big but still a member
    of the cat family...
[05:17] ---
    That means catnip might work, huh?
[05:21] ---
    Huh?!
[05:25] ---
    I wonder how Luffy is doing.
[05:29] ---
    It's been a week since he left the hideout.
[05:33] ---
    We should have gone to see him by now.
[05:37] ---
    You know how he is.
[05:39] ---
    Maybe the training is too hard for him
    and he's crying "I wanna go home!"
[05:44] ---
    No! Maybe he's dead already!
[06:01] ---
    What?
[06:02] ---
    Don't you care about Luffy?
    He's your younger brother!
[06:08] ---
    Shut up! I don't care if
    he's crying or he's dead!
[06:13] ---
    Damn! Stop being stubborn already!
[06:16] ---
    You must...
[06:26] ---
    Ow, ow, ow...
[06:28] ---
    W-What happened?
[06:29] ---
    I'm sorry!
[06:31] ---
    Are you okay? Sorry!
[06:36] ---
    --Luffy!
    --Luffy!
[06:39] ---
    Ace! Sabo! Long time no see!
[06:43] ---
    How've you been?!
[06:46] ---
    Uh, well, you know.
SIGN    GRAY TERMINAL
SIGN    TIGER
[06:56] ---
    What's that? A target?
[06:58] ---
    Hey, Sabo!
[07:02] ---
    I'm gonna show you the result of my training!
[07:05] ---
    Here I go!
[07:06] ---
    Gum-Gum...
[07:09] ---
    ...Pistol!
[07:23] ---
    Oh no!
[07:26] ---
    That's awesome! You couldn't
    reach that far a week ago!
[07:31] ---
    Can you beat that?!
[07:33] ---
    Oh boy...
[07:35] ---
    What kind of tips did you give him?
[07:38] ---
    Nothing special.
[07:39] ---
    He was just chopping wood
    with an ax for me everyday.
[07:43] ---
    But maybe it helped him
    build up his physique.
[07:48] ---
    Let me have a seat.
[07:53] ---
    We challenged Roger, the King
    of the Pirates, to a fight!
[07:57] ---
    Really?!
[07:58] ---
    But we lost the fight and split up.
[08:07] ---
    I know that you hate him, too.
[08:10] ---
    Hate who?
[08:13] ---
    Because he beat you.
[08:15] ---
    You mean Roger?
[08:18] ---
    I felt frustrated for sure.
[08:22] ---
    But I lost because I wasn't strong enough.
[08:26] ---
    I rather feel grateful to him now.
[08:30] ---
    To someone who beat you?!
[08:32] ---
    That's right.
[08:40] ---
    We give up! You win!
[08:43] ---
    Go ahead and cut my head off! But...
[08:48] ---
    Please spare my crew in exchange for my head!
[08:54] ---
    Captain!
[08:56] ---
    Have mercy!
[09:07] ---
    He was a man of quite high caliber!
[09:11] ---
    That's why I...
[09:13] ---
    Don't lie! There are dozens
    of people who hate him!
[09:21] ---
    Do they really fight with Roger?
[09:26] ---
    In the world of pirates, when you
    lose a fight, you lose your life.
[09:30] ---
    But I'm alive.
[09:33] ---
    Let's say that those people fought him.
[09:37] ---
    Just think. They can talk about
    their grudges because they're alive!
[09:44] ---
    I'll get stronger and...
[09:46] ---
    Then what if Roger had a son?!
[09:53] ---
    It must be hard to be his son.
[09:57] ---
    Whether he chooses to live a
    normal life or as a pirate,
[10:01] ---
    he will always be haunted
    by his father's name.
[10:05] ---
    It must be quite hard.
[10:08] ---
    If I were his son, I wouldn't
    want to become a pirate.
[10:13] ---
    Because that father's name would
    ruin his son's life in the end.
[10:18] ---
    "Ruin his son's life"?!
[10:20] ---
    Stop talking nonsense!
    You don't know anything!
[10:24] ---
    Why don't you fight me, old man?!
[10:29] ---
    Ace!
[10:31] ---
    Like I said, when you lose a
    fight, you lose your life...
[10:36] ---
    I'm not gonna lose!
[10:56] ---
    I win!
[10:59] ---
    Dammit! Do anything you like with me!
[11:02] ---
    Then, I want you to come with me.
[11:06] ---
    Huh?
[11:13] ---
    It's this way!
[11:18] ---
    I didn't know that there was a cove.
[11:22] ---
    Guys! Hurry up and get over here!
[11:26] ---
    Guys! Guys! Hustle, hustle!
[11:31] ---
    What do you want, Luffy?
[11:34] ---
    Don't be shocked!
[11:38] ---
    That's a...
[11:42] ---
    ...boat?!
[11:45] ---
    Isn't it cool?! It's a real pirate ship!
[11:49] ---
    A pirate ship?! Is this what
    Naguri has been making?!
[11:54] ---
    It will take forever to make it on my own.
[11:57] ---
    Could you two give me a hand?
[12:01] ---
    --Huh?
    --Give you a hand?
[12:04] ---
    You said that I can do
    anything I like with you!
[12:08] ---
    W-W-Wait a minute! I have to help, too?!
[12:12] ---
    You happened to be here, so.
[12:14] ---
    You're not making any sense!
[12:16] ---
    We're busy hunting the big tiger!
[12:20] ---
    I can give you some pointers
    to hunt the tiger.
[12:23] ---
    What?! Well, then maybe...
[12:28] ---
    Let me ask you a question.
[12:30] ---
    What are you gonna do with the ship?
[12:35] ---
    I'm gonna go out to sea, of course.
[12:37] ---
    
    To find my crew that got split up.
[12:40] ---
    To sea?
[12:42] ---
    What? An old man can't go out to sea?
[12:45] ---
    No, I wasn't gonna say that, but...
[12:49] ---
    It doesn't matter how old
    you are to chase a dream!
[12:53] ---
    I don't care what anyone says,
    I'm gonna go out to sea!
[12:56] ---
    I've already decided!
[12:59] ---
    Do you have a problem with that?
[13:01] ---
    Nope!
[13:03] ---
    You're an old man, full of energy.
[13:06] ---
    Ace?
[13:09] ---
    A promise is a promise. I'll
    give you a hand. And...
[13:14] ---
    ...I will defeat you tomorrow!
[13:18] ---
    What was that?
[13:28] ---
    And so began their training
    to be pirates with Naguri.
[13:33] ---
    Through hard labor on the ship,
[13:36] ---
    they gained strength and honed their
    skills by fighting with Naguri...
[13:42] ---
    ...growing both physically and mentally.
[13:47] ---
    Seasons come and go but spring
    comes late in the Gray Terminal.
[14:03] ---
    --I'm gonna win today!
    --I'm not gonna lose!
[14:07] ---
    I'm gonna win!
[14:10] ---
    Gum-Gum...
[14:12] ---
    ...Pistol!
[14:17] ---
    Oh no!
[14:21] ---
    Hey, Luffy! You did it again!
[14:25] ---
    Sorry!
[14:26] ---
    Boy, you guys are only thinking
    about getting stronger but...
[14:33] ---
    ...you think that's enough?
[14:36] ---
    What do you mean?
[14:38] ---
    The strongest one among
    us will become captain.
[14:42] ---
    So what do you think about that?
[14:44] ---
    That's right! The one that kill the tiger!
[14:47] ---
    The tiger, huh?
[14:49] ---
    Well, a captain needs to be
    strong - that's for sure.
[14:54] ---
    But there is more important thing.
[14:58] ---
    A more important thing?
[14:59] ---
    Yes, and that is...
[15:06] ---
    I forgot!
[15:12] ---
    What was that? How disappointing!
[15:15] ---
    Easy, easy!
[15:56] ---
    Oh, I didn't know that
    you were here, Ace-kun.
[16:04] ---
    What's wrong?
[16:07] ---
    What does it take to be a captain?
[16:09] ---
    What is more important than being strong?
[16:13] ---
    Tell me!
[16:17] ---
    Alright.
[16:20] ---
    That is...
[16:24] ---
    To tell you the truth, I don't know it yet.
[16:27] ---
    I wasn't a good captain.
[16:32] ---
    But my crew,
[16:35] ---
    they called me "Captain"
    until the last minute.
[16:39] ---
    Because of that, I'm still the
    captain of the Naguri Pirates.
[16:47] ---
    Only your crew's approval
    can make you a captain!
[16:51] ---
    Or something like that...
[16:55] ---
    That's corny.
[17:11] ---
    Yeah! It's done!
[17:17] ---
    We did it, Naguri!
[17:18] ---
    Cool! It's awesome!
[17:21] ---
    I couldn't have done it
    without your help. Thank you!
[17:25] ---
    I'm really grateful!
[17:30] ---
    Say, Naguri, are you setting sail soon?
[17:32] ---
    Yes. But before that, I have
    to wrap up your training.
[17:39] ---
    Let's go and hunt the big tiger today!
[17:44] ---
    Really?!
[17:45] ---
    I'm gonna kill him and
    end this stupid training!
[17:49] ---
    I'm gonna kill him!
[17:51] ---
    Don't forget about me!
[18:04] ---
    Here he comes!
[18:13] ---
    There he is!
[18:19] ---
    I go first!
[18:27] ---
    How predictable!
[18:35] ---
    How's that?!
[18:45] ---
    You're unguarded!
[18:47] ---
    You gotta fight me now!
[18:50] ---
    Stop resisting, just give up!
[19:01] ---
    Sabo! Ace!
[19:12] ---
    D-D-Dammit!
[19:13] ---
    Gum-Gum Pistol!
[19:25] ---
    Oh no! Luffy!
[19:27] ---
    Run!
[19:41] ---
    Ace! Sabo!
[19:43] ---
    So heavy! How powerful he is!
[19:48] ---
    Damn! We're not good enough!
[19:53] ---
    Only your crew's approval
    can make you a captain!
[19:58] ---
    But we can't lose!
[20:01] ---
    Guys, give me a hand!
[20:05] ---
    Oh, it's getting interesting.
[20:12] ---
    We're not fast enough but we
    can do it with Luffy's power!
[20:17] ---
    Sabo, do it!
[20:20] ---
    Okay! Hey, tiger! Look over here!
[20:24] ---
    Kiss my ass!
[20:30] ---
    --Luffy!
    --Okay!
[20:34] ---
    Pull it as much as you can!
[20:36] ---
    Sabo, this way!
[20:38] ---
    I can't! He's gonna eat me!
[20:40] ---
    You can do it, Sabo!
    Lure him as far as you can!
[20:50] ---
    Are you ready, Luffy?!
[20:52] ---
    Yeah!
[20:56] ---
    Gum-Gum...
[20:59] ---
    ...Rocket!
[21:20] ---
    Yeah!!
[21:23] ---
    So, Ace is gonna be our captain after all?!
[21:29] ---
    I worked so hard for this!
[21:32] ---
    Give it up, Luffy.
[21:35] ---
    Damn!
[21:36] ---
    Don't worry. I'm not gonna become captain.
[21:41] ---
    Why?
[21:43] ---
    Because I didn't beat
    the tiger all by myself.
[21:48] ---
    Ace!
[21:49] ---
    Well, I mean,
[21:51] ---
    I'm gonna make you guys
    beg me to become captain sometime soon!
[21:57] ---
    Are you gonna beg him?
[21:58] ---
    Hell no!
[22:00] ---
    You fools!
[22:04] ---
    Looks like everything
    turned out for the best.
[22:09] ---
    Alright then...
[22:11] ---
    Old man!
[22:13] ---
    Next time I see you, I'm gonna defeat you!
[22:16] ---
    Keep winning until then!
[22:20] ---
    Goodbye!
[22:22] ---
    Take care!
[22:25] ---
    I'll be waiting for you out there.
[22:46] ---
    Thus, they said goodbye to Naguri
[22:51] ---
    and Luffy and the other two
    returned to life on their own.
[23:01] ---
    Hey, you know where he is, don't you?
[23:05] ---
    Yes. You don't have to worry.
[23:09] ---
    It's about time now.
[23:13] ---
    Call and tell his father that we found...
[23:17] ---
    ...Sabo.
[23:25] ---
    Sabo makes a difficult
    decision in order to save
[23:27] ---
    Ace and Luffy, who are being held hostage.
[23:30] ---
    But Sabo is overwhelmed by the suffocating
[23:33] ---
    lifestyle in High Town.
[23:35] ---
    Then, as if to deal the final blow,
    yet another scheme is revealed...
[23:40] ---
    On the next episode of One Piece!
[23:41] ---
    "Freedom Taken Away! The Nobles'
    Plot Closing in on the Brothers!"
[23:45] ---
    I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
