**[00:13] ---**
Inherited will...
**[00:14] ---**
The tide of the times...
People's dreams...
**[00:17] ---**
These things cannot be stopped.
**[00:20] ---**
As long as people seek
the answer of freedom,
**[00:23] ---**
these things will never cease to be!
**[00:35] ---**
I only believe in the future--
I don't care if anyone laughs
**[00:41] ---**
That racing passion makes you shine
**[00:46] ---**
It's too bright, but I want to gaze at it
**[00:52] ---**
I sense "aesthetics" somewhere
**[00:56] ---**
I'm really, really stuck on you
**[00:59] ---**
I follow, follow in the footsteps
of a dream that resembles no one
**[01:05] ---**
Until I dramatically get it
**[01:09] ---**
Believe In Wonderland!
**[01:18] ---**
I'm going to catch, catch the shape
of a dream no one can see
**[01:24] ---**
I'm going to go with you,
so passionate feelings
**[01:30] ---**
I don't really need
everything to add up
**[01:33] ---**
Rather than run-of-the-mill daily life,
**[01:36] ---**
run for paradise instead
**[01:40] ---**
Believe In Wonderland!
**[01:50] ---**
Hey! I see the mystery mountain!
**[01:54] ---**
What?!
**[01:56] ---**
I can't see the top because of the clouds!
**[01:59] ---**
So this is the Red Line!
**[02:09] ---**
This can't be for real!
**[02:11] ---**
The damn ocean really is
flowing up the mountain!
**[02:20] ---**
Gum-Gum Balloon!
**[02:29] ---**
We made it!
**[02:35] ---**
Yahoo!
**[02:44] ---**
We're above the clouds now!
**[02:49] ---**
We've made it to the top!
**[02:54] ---**
Yahoo!
**[03:01] ---**
All we gotta do now is go down!
**[03:05] ---**
So this is the
greatest sea in the world!
**[03:09] ---**
The Grand Line!
**[03:16] ---**
"The First Line of Defense?
The Giant Whale Laboon Appears"
**[03:35] ---**
Whoa!! This is great!!
**[03:50] ---**
Did you just hear something?
**[03:52] ---**
Huh? What'd you say?
**[03:54] ---**
Don't you hear a strange sound?
**[03:56] ---**
Isn't it the wind?
**[03:58] ---**
There must be lots of unusual landforms!
**[04:06] ---**
What's that?
**[04:08] ---**
Nami-san! I see a mountain up ahead!
**[04:10] ---**
A mountain?! That can't be!
**[04:12] ---**
But it's really there!
**[04:14] ---**
Who cares?! Go!!
**[04:17] ---**
After passing the Twin Capes up ahead,
there should be nothing but ocean!
**[04:22] ---**
Hm?
**[04:27] ---**
Oh, crap!!
**[04:31] ---**
It's not a mountain!!
**[04:33] ---**
It's a black wall!!
**[04:34] ---**
No, it's not!!
**[04:35] ---**
Then, what is it?!
**[04:36] ---**
I-I-I-It's a whale!!
**[04:42] ---**
Wh-Wh-Wh-What're we gonna do?!
**[04:44] ---**
Shall we fight?
**[04:44] ---**
Idiot! There's no way we can fight that!
**[04:47] ---**
B-B-B-B-But, our path is blocked!
**[04:49] ---**
What're we gonna do?!
**[04:52] ---**
Hold on a sec!
**[04:53] ---**
If it looks like a wall from this close,
**[04:56] ---**
then where are its eyes?!
**[04:58] ---**
That's right! It's possible
that he may not have noticed us!
**[05:01] ---**
But unless we do something,
we'll run into it!
**[05:04] ---**
Hey! We can get through on the left!
**[05:06] ---**
Port! Hard to port!
**[05:09] ---**
But the rudder is broken!
**[05:10] ---**
Do something!
**[05:12] ---**
I'll help, too!
**[05:13] ---**
Oh, yeah! I've got an idea!
**[05:16] ---**
Luffy...? Hey, what're you doing?!
**[05:24] ---**
It doesn't work! The ship doesn't turn!
**[05:29] ---**
Dammit!
**[05:30] ---**
Don't give up!
**[05:41] ---**
Is this it...?!
**[05:50] ---**
Cannon?!
**[05:52] ---**
All right! Did it stop?
**[06:01] ---**
Ah... We're screwed...
**[06:05] ---**
This might be it...
**[06:09] ---**
My special seat...!
**[06:32] ---**
Let's get out of here before it's too late!!
**[06:35] ---**
What the heck is going on?!
**[06:37] ---**
Did he not notice the cannon
attack because his body's too big?!
**[06:39] ---**
Or is he just slow?!
**[06:41] ---**
Who knows?! Anyway,
let's get out of here now!
**[06:48] ---**
Ahhhhh! My ears hurt!
**[06:50] ---**
Paddle! Just paddle!!
**[06:52] ---**
We have to get away from him!
**[06:59] ---**
Luffy...?
**[07:01] ---**
You...! What the hell did
you do to my special seat?!
**[07:08] ---**
Dumbass!!
**[07:21] ---**
How was that?! Bring it on, you bastard!
**[07:24] ---**
Shut up already, you idiot!
**[07:33] ---**
Wh-What?
**[07:51] ---**
--Luffy!
--Luffy!
**[07:59] ---**
I'm not gonna die!!
**[08:36] ---**
What am I gonna do?
**[08:38] ---**
They've all been eaten...
**[08:42] ---**
Hey you! Spit them out!
Give everyone back to me!
**[08:44] ---**
Spit them out!
I'm saying give them back!
**[08:49] ---**
You...! You...! You jerk!
**[08:52] ---**
You're diving into the water,
aren't you?! Stop it!
**[08:54] ---**
Hey! I'm telling you to stop! Hey!
**[08:57] ---**
Please wait! Give my friends back!
**[08:59] ---**
Hey! I said stop it!
**[09:02] ---**
We're gonna go on adventures together!
They're precious to me!
**[09:07] ---**
Give them back!!
**[09:12] ---**
Huh?
**[09:31] ---**
What do you think...?
**[09:33] ---**
What do I think...?
**[09:35] ---**
How should I think...?
**[09:36] ---**
H-H-H-H-How...
**[09:38] ---**
I was sure that we were
swallowed by the whale...
**[09:44] ---**
Is this a dream?
**[09:46] ---**
Yeah, it's probably a dream.
**[09:54] ---**
Then, what're the island
and house doing there?
**[09:57] ---**
They must be illusions.
**[10:03] ---**
Then this is...
**[10:06] ---**
...a Great King Squid!!
**[10:30] ---**
Looks like there's at least someone there.
**[10:32] ---**
I hope it's really a person...
**[10:35] ---**
I've had enough. I wanna go home.
**[10:37] ---**
Luffy went somewhere, too.
What's gonna happen to us?
**[10:41] ---**
Come to think of it, where's Luffy?!
**[10:44] ---**
What the heck is this?
**[10:46] ---**
Why is there a door and
a passageway in a whale?
**[10:53] ---**
A ship...
**[10:54] ---**
Sh-Sh-Sh-Shall we fire
the cannon at that island?!
**[10:58] ---**
No, hold on a sec...
**[11:01] ---**
Someone's coming out...
**[11:35] ---**
--Ah?! It's a flower!
--A flower?
**[11:42] ---**
Oh, never mind. It's a person.
**[11:43] ---**
What is he?
**[11:45] ---**
That old man killed a
Great King Squid with a single hit...
**[11:48] ---**
Was he just fishing...
or did he do it to save us...?
**[12:20] ---**
Say something, you jerk!
**[12:26] ---**
I-If you wanna fight,
we'll fight, you bastard!
**[12:28] ---**
We've got cannons!
**[12:41] ---**
You'd better not, or someone will die.
**[12:47] ---**
Oh? Just who're you saying will die?
**[12:50] ---**
--Me.
--You?!
**[12:52] ---**
--Why, you...
--Well, calm down.
**[12:54] ---**
He's mocking us. That bastard...
**[12:58] ---**
Hey, old man. Tell us where
we are and who you are.
**[13:12] ---**
When asking someone a question,
**[13:14] ---**
isn't it proper manner
to give your name first?
**[13:19] ---**
Hm? Yeah, good point. Sorry.
**[13:23] ---**
--My name is Roronoa...
--My name is Crocus.
**[13:26] ---**
I'm the lighthouse keeper
of the Twin Capes.
**[13:29] ---**
I'm 71 years old and a Gemini.
**[13:31] ---**
--Can I cut him?!
--My blood type is AB.
**[13:32] ---**
--Now, calm down.
--My blood type is AB.
**[13:34] ---**
You're asking where we are?
**[13:36] ---**
How dare you run your mouth when
you barged into my private resort?
**[13:45] ---**
Does it look like we're in a rat's belly?
**[13:48] ---**
S-So we were eaten by a whale after all...
**[13:52] ---**
But is this really inside
a whale's stomach?
**[13:54] ---**
Wait a sec! What's gonna happen to us?!
**[13:57] ---**
I don't wanna be digested!
**[14:08] ---**
Would you cut that out?!
**[14:09] ---**
Haven't you guys heard of
the "repeating gag"?
**[14:12] ---**
That was a gag?!
**[14:13] ---**
The exit is over there.
**[14:15] ---**
We can get out?!
**[14:17] ---**
Hold on a sec! Why's there
an exit in a whale's belly?!
**[14:21] ---**
Why's the door in the sky?!
**[14:23] ---**
Wait... Look at it carefully...
**[14:26] ---**
This sky... Those seagulls...
**[14:31] ---**
They're all painted! It's all a painting
inside of the whale's stomach!
**[14:35] ---**
Huh?!
**[14:36] ---**
Call it a doctor's playful mind.
**[14:37] ---**
You bastard! What the hell
are you doing here?!
**[14:40] ---**
That's enough. Leave him alone.
**[14:42] ---**
Agreed.
**[14:43] ---**
Nami! There's an exit, so
let's get out of here already.
**[14:45] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:51] ---**
What's going on?!
**[14:54] ---**
It's started...
**[14:56] ---**
Look!
**[14:58] ---**
That's not an island! It's a ship.
On top of that, it's made of iron!
**[15:02] ---**
Of course! It's because
this sea is gastric acid!
**[15:05] ---**
I guess that means that wooden ships
would melt if they stayed here long.
**[15:09] ---**
Hey! What's started?! Tell us!
**[15:14] ---**
This whale has...
**[15:17] ---**
Laboon has started hitting
his head against the Red Line.
**[15:31] ---**
What?!
**[15:32] ---**
Come to think of it, this whale
had terrible scars on his forehead.
**[15:35] ---**
He was also howling at the sky...
**[15:38] ---**
What does that mean?
**[15:40] ---**
He's suffering!
**[15:49] ---**
I see! So that's what that
geezer's trying to do!
**[15:52] ---**
Likely... He's probably trying to
kill the whale from inside his body!
**[15:56] ---**
Now...
**[15:57] ---**
What a vicious way to kill it...!
**[15:59] ---**
Now that the mystery is solved,
it's time to hurry up and get out.
**[16:01] ---**
If we take our time here,
we'll be digested.
**[16:04] ---**
We have nothing to say
about his whale hunting
**[16:07] ---**
nor are we under obligation
to save the whale.
**[16:10] ---**
Let's get out of here.
**[16:24] ---**
Ahhh! Dammit! With the
waves surging like this,
**[16:28] ---**
I don't know if we can
even reach the doors...
**[16:31] ---**
We have no other choice but
to paddle! Take the oars!
**[16:33] ---**
Let's leave quickly!
I'm worried about Luffy.
**[16:36] ---**
He's outside!
I saw him fly out of the mouth!
**[16:42] ---**
That old man jumped in!
**[16:44] ---**
Huh? What's he gonna do?
He's gonna be digested.
**[16:58] ---**
What?! What's going on?! Huh? Why?!
**[17:01] ---**
Dizzy... Dizzy... I'm dizzy...!
**[17:19] ---**
What is it this time?
The sea? A river? A channel?
**[17:35] ---**
Okay. We've succeeded
in infiltrating this far.
**[17:40] ---**
Listen, Miss Wednesday.
**[17:42] ---**
Behind those doors is the stomach
and that geezer is likely to be there.
**[17:46] ---**
We must eliminate him.
**[17:50] ---**
Everything is for the whale.
**[17:53] ---**
Yes, Mr. 9. This whale is a
precious sweet honey to our town.
**[18:01] ---**
Hey! The geezer came out!
**[18:03] ---**
Forget about him.
**[18:05] ---**
More importantly,
how do we open these doors?
**[18:08] ---**
Okay, Miss Wednesday?
**[18:11] ---**
We'll open the doors with
"Three, two, one, baby!"
**[18:13] ---**
Don't let down your guard.
**[18:15] ---**
Roger, Mr. 9. I'm ready any time.
**[18:21] ---**
I can't stop!!
**[18:22] ---**
What is this voice, Mr. 9?
**[18:24] ---**
I don't know, Miss Wednesday.
**[18:36] ---**
Those guys're...
**[18:38] ---**
Ahh!
**[18:39] ---**
Huh?
**[18:40] ---**
This isn't good, Miss Wednesday!
It's a sea of gastric acid below us!
**[18:46] ---**
--Luffy?
--Hey! So everyone's okay?
**[18:50] ---**
In any case, help me!
**[18:58] ---**
Aside from Luffy...
there're two weirdoes...
**[19:01] ---**
Hey! That old man disappeared!
**[19:03] ---**
Don't bother! For now, let's save Luffy!
**[19:21] ---**
Stop it, Laboon.
**[19:24] ---**
Don't hurt yourself any more.
**[19:27] ---**
There's only a little sedative left.
I have to make some more...
**[19:34] ---**
That wall divides the world's oceans.
**[19:37] ---**
Even if you hit it until you die,
it won't break, Laboon.
**[19:47] ---**
It's calmed down.
The whale is quiet now.
**[19:51] ---**
Seems like it. Now...
**[19:55] ---**
We did save you guys for the
time being, but who are you?
**[19:59] ---**
Mr. 9, they're pirates.
**[20:02] ---**
I-I know, Miss Wednesday.
**[20:05] ---**
B-But if we talk to them,
they should understand... perhaps...
**[20:10] ---**
You thugs're still around?!
**[20:13] ---**
--Huh?
--Don't make me say this yet again!
**[20:16] ---**
I won't let you lay a finger
on Laboon as long as I'm alive!
**[20:23] ---**
He's back.
**[20:25] ---**
Who's that pops?
**[20:27] ---**
Huh?
**[20:28] ---**
Even if you say so, we can't leave.
**[20:31] ---**
Taking down this whale is our mission.
**[20:34] ---**
We won't let you interfere with
our whale hunting this time!
**[20:37] ---**
We'll open an air vent in
his stomach! Let's go, baby!
**[20:40] ---**
Roger!
**[20:47] ---**
Ah! Bastards!
**[20:54] ---**
That pops jumped
straight into the bullets...!
**[20:56] ---**
Could it be...
that he protected the whale?!
**[21:02] ---**
Stop this pointless resistance!
**[21:03] ---**
If you want to protect the
whale that badly, go right ahead.
**[21:06] ---**
We'll turn it into food for our town!
**[21:15] ---**
What's going on?
**[21:19] ---**
Huh?
**[21:25] ---**
Luffy...?
**[21:26] ---**
I just... felt like hitting them.
**[21:40] ---**
I thank you for saving me... but why?
**[21:44] ---**
I wasn't trying to save you.
I just didn't like them for some reason.
**[21:48] ---**
Huh?
**[21:49] ---**
--Say, who are these guys?
--Hey, Luffy! What're you doing?
**[21:51] ---**
--What're you doing inside this whale?
--Hey, Luffy! What're you doing?
**[21:53] ---**
--What're you doing inside this whale?
--Stop it! Hey, Luffy! Stop it!
**[21:55] ---**
--They're thugs from a nearby town.
--Stop it! Hey, Luffy! Stop it!
**[21:58] ---**
--They're after whale meat.
--What're you trying to do?
It belongs to someone else.
**[22:00] ---**
If they capture Laboon,
**[22:03] ---**
it can feed the townspeople
for at least 2-3 years, so...
**[22:07] ---**
Laboon?
**[22:08] ---**
It's the name of this whale.
**[22:10] ---**
It's the world's largest whale,
called the Island Whale,
**[22:15] ---**
which live only in the West Blue.
**[22:18] ---**
I won't let them have him as food.
**[22:21] ---**
There's a reason he keeps
hitting himself on the Red Line
**[22:27] ---**
and howling towards Reverse Mountain.
**[22:30] ---**
A reason?
**[22:31] ---**
Yeah. He's a whale with a human heart.
**[22:38] ---**
And he's been devotedly
waiting for a certain pirate group...
**[22:47] ---**
...for 50 long years...
**[22:57] ---**
My overflowing feelings don't connect
**[23:02] ---**
as I firmly squeeze your hand back
**[23:06] ---**
I'll set off by myself,
**[23:11] ---**
so keep watching me intently
as I go into the distance
**[23:21] ---**
I was thinking about it
a bit since this morning
**[23:26] ---**
Why is it so hot?
**[23:31] ---**
Starting from some point, I haven't
been able to get away from that
**[23:42] ---**
I want to catch those
feelings that rushed off,
**[23:47] ---**
and I'm already about
to overtake myself, even
**[23:52] ---**
I want to embrace my
dreams that have jumped out
**[23:57] ---**
With you, I can run there
**[24:11] ---**
There's a reason he keeps
hitting the Red Line?
**[24:14] ---**
What a strange whale...
**[24:15] ---**
--So he's a whale with a human heart...
--Okay!
**[24:17] ---**
When he says "Okay!" nothing
good usually comes of it.
**[24:20] ---**
H-Hey, look!
**[24:21] ---**
What's he thinking?
**[24:23] ---**
Now how is this?
**[24:24] ---**
What're you doing?!
**[24:26] ---**
On the next episode of One Piece!
**[24:27] ---**
"A Promise Between Men!
Luffy and the Whale Vow to Meet Again"
**[24:31] ---**
I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
**[24:33] ---**
