**[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] ---**
"Yuba" "Erumalu" "Nanohana" "Katorea"
**[01:52] ---**
Three years have passed since
a single drop of rain fell
**[01:56] ---**
in the kingdom of oases.
**[01:58] ---**
Seeing hope beyond turmoil,
the people took up weapons.
**[02:02] ---**
The burning land is now
enveloped by a sad bellowing
**[02:06] ---**
and a mighty swell.
**[02:09] ---**
Meanwhile, to reach Yuba,
where the rebel army is,
**[02:13] ---**
Luffy's group set into the desert...
**[02:15] ---**
...where numerous, unimaginable
hardships fell upon them!
**[02:24] ---**
"Enter the Desert Pirates!
The Men Who Live Freely"
**[02:32] ---**
So hot... Water...
**[02:36] ---**
Thanks, Zoro. This heat
is too much for me...
**[02:39] ---**
Don't act polite. It's stifling.
**[02:41] ---**
Nami-san! How far did you go?!
**[02:44] ---**
That side of you is wonderful too!
**[02:46] ---**
Huh?
**[02:48] ---**
What's the matter, Luffy?
**[02:55] ---**
This is much easier
thanks to you, Lashes!
**[02:58] ---**
But will the others be all right?
**[03:00] ---**
They'll just follow the footprints!
**[03:13] ---**
Tsunami!
**[03:15] ---**
What now?
**[03:16] ---**
--A tsunami's coming!
--What's going on, Luffy?!
**[03:20] ---**
Maybe it wasn't such
a good idea after all?
**[03:22] ---**
What wasn't a good idea?
**[03:24] ---**
I told him not to, but he said he
was so thirsty he couldn't stand it,
**[03:29] ---**
so he chomped down on some
cactus growing back there.
**[03:32] ---**
Cactus?
**[03:34] ---**
Yeah. Over there.
**[03:36] ---**
Those round things.
**[03:38] ---**
Eh?! Those are bad!
**[03:41] ---**
Those are mezcal cacti! They're
used to make hallucination drugs!
**[03:44] ---**
What?!
**[03:46] ---**
Oh no!
**[03:48] ---**
We're gonna drown!
**[03:50] ---**
Alright! Bring it on, if you dare!
**[03:53] ---**
I'll beat all of you up!
**[03:58] ---**
This is bad!
**[04:00] ---**
Gum-Gum...
**[04:05] ---**
Tranquilizer!
**[04:06] ---**
Way to go, Chopper!
**[04:10] ---**
Well? Do you see Nami's group?
**[04:14] ---**
L-Luffy?
**[04:16] ---**
What?!
**[04:20] ---**
Damn. We're completely
separated from them now.
**[04:23] ---**
And their footprints are disappearing.
**[04:27] ---**
Come to think of it, I haven't
seen Ace for a while, either.
**[04:30] ---**
When did he disappear?
**[04:33] ---**
I bet he got separated from us.
**[04:37] ---**
Sheesh! What a troublesome big brother!
**[04:40] ---**
We're the ones who got separated!
**[04:42] ---**
--All because of you!
--Quit acting so carefree!
**[04:48] ---**
What is it, Usopp?
**[04:50] ---**
Do you hear something?
**[05:27] ---**
A pirate ship?!
**[05:31] ---**
Aah! It's--!
**[05:33] ---**
Nami and Vivi've been caught!
Oh, and the camel.
**[05:36] ---**
What?!
**[05:39] ---**
--Hey! Luffy!
--Don't be rash!
**[05:41] ---**
Damn! Let's go, too!
**[05:43] ---**
Yeah!
**[05:46] ---**
Gum-Gum...
**[05:53] ---**
...Give-Me-Water!
**[05:55] ---**
Water?!
**[05:57] ---**
I'm out of strength...
**[06:08] ---**
Did I just hear something?
**[06:25] ---**
I wouldn't if I were you.
**[06:27] ---**
Oh, my bad!
**[06:29] ---**
I'm so thirsty I misjudged...
**[06:32] ---**
By the way, do you have any water?
**[06:34] ---**
You mean you didn't come to save us?!
**[06:38] ---**
I only came to get water.
**[06:40] ---**
Help, Luffy-san!
Lashes is about to be eaten!
**[06:44] ---**
That thing's edible?
**[07:00] ---**
We, the Barbar Sand Pirates, have a saying.
**[07:04] ---**
Saying?
**[07:05] ---**
Aside from friends, nothing alive
in the desert can't be eaten!
**[07:10] ---**
I'll even eat stuff off the ground!
**[07:13] ---**
That'll make you sick.
**[07:15] ---**
Then I'll be careful!
**[07:18] ---**
What a funny pipsqueak!
**[07:21] ---**
You're funny too! Well, let's eat!
**[07:26] ---**
Why?!
**[07:30] ---**
I'm Barbarossa, captain of
the Barbar Sand Pirates!
**[07:34] ---**
Luffy, was it? I'm sorry for our
rough treatment of your friends.
**[07:39] ---**
It's just that we're all so hungry...
**[07:43] ---**
No, I don't mind!
**[07:45] ---**
That's not for you to say!
**[07:47] ---**
But, Captain! We don't have any
wood at all to repair our main mast!
**[07:55] ---**
Without a main mast,
we won't have enough thrust!
**[07:58] ---**
Yeah! Yeah! What're we gonna do?!
**[08:01] ---**
If we don't do something,
**[08:02] ---**
we're going to die like dogs
in the middle of this desert!
**[08:06] ---**
--We're gonna die like dogs!
--Huh?! What?!
**[08:09] ---**
--The Barbar Sand Pirates are gonna die!
--Huh?
**[08:12] ---**
We sand pirates are born
in sand pirate ships,
**[08:15] ---**
and we'll die in sand pirate ships!
**[08:18] ---**
Abandoning our ship is unthinkable!
**[08:20] ---**
Yeah! That's right! We'll die in our ship!
**[08:25] ---**
We'll die like dogs in our ship!
**[08:29] ---**
What is this?
**[08:30] ---**
That was fate, this was fate!
**[08:33] ---**
We sand pirates will never do
anything to defy the flow of sand!
**[08:47] ---**
Can't say I didn't warn you.
**[09:01] ---**
But there is timber at the Meriyasu Oasis.
**[09:06] ---**
Where is it?! I'll rush there real quick!
**[09:10] ---**
But the sands've changed lately.
It's dangerous for outsiders.
**[09:16] ---**
I'm responsible for it! I'll do it!
**[09:20] ---**
Yeah?! You will?!
**[09:23] ---**
Bring back wood with this sand-sled.
**[09:26] ---**
I'd say this is more of
a canoe than a sled...
**[09:29] ---**
Zaba and Rasa will show you
to the Meriyasu Oasis.
**[09:33] ---**
--Rasa?
--Yes.
**[09:34] ---**
Rasa is our ship's finest sand-sledder.
**[09:38] ---**
A sand-sled can carry two people.
What'll you do?
**[09:40] ---**
I'll be fine on my own!
**[09:42] ---**
Come on, now! Quit saying
baseless things like that!
**[09:46] ---**
It'll probably be demanding work.
Want me to go with you?
**[10:05] ---**
Oh! That was cool, Rasa!
**[10:10] ---**
The others seem to be outsiders...
but you're from here.
**[10:14] ---**
Wow! How could she tell?
**[10:17] ---**
You must have some
experience with a sand-sled.
**[10:20] ---**
You'll come along.
**[10:22] ---**
Vivi-chan can't do
anything that dangerous!
**[10:25] ---**
Yeah! That's crazy!
**[10:27] ---**
All right. I'll come with you.
**[10:31] ---**
Oh? So these go on top of
the sand? How does it work?
**[10:35] ---**
I'll pilot the sled.
I did this once long ago.
**[10:38] ---**
It's not too different from a ship.
This goes like this, right?
**[10:55] ---**
I-I'm back!
**[10:59] ---**
Don't waste your strength
doing stupid things!
**[11:03] ---**
You can rest there, Luffy-san.
**[11:05] ---**
Now, let's see. I believe
this goes like this and...
**[11:10] ---**
Ugh. Let's go, Zaba!
**[11:13] ---**
Yeah, Rasa!
**[11:16] ---**
Yahoo!
**[11:19] ---**
This feels great!
**[11:21] ---**
If we borrow this,
can't we reach Yuba right away?
**[11:24] ---**
It's hard to control sand-sleds.
It's not something easily mastered.
**[11:29] ---**
Then how come you can control it?
**[11:32] ---**
I used to practice with a sand-sled
I received when I was little.
**[11:38] ---**
But what should we do while we wait?
**[11:41] ---**
Want to eat the camel?!
**[11:43] ---**
Yay! Yay! Yay!
**[11:45] ---**
All for it!
**[11:48] ---**
Just joking!
**[11:50] ---**
Doesn't sound like a joke to me...
**[12:02] ---**
Hey, you! What's the big idea?!
**[12:06] ---**
Hey, Rasa! That's--!
**[12:11] ---**
Hey, Vivi! We're getting
pulled in more and more!
**[12:14] ---**
It's quicksand! If we get
swallowed into the sand,
**[12:16] ---**
we'll never come back out!
**[12:21] ---**
Rasa. Wasn't that going too far?
**[12:23] ---**
If luck's on her side,
she'll make it through alive.
**[12:26] ---**
Huh? You know that girl?
**[12:29] ---**
Yeah. As if I'd ever forget!
**[12:57] ---**
You alright, Vivi?!
**[12:58] ---**
We're in trouble if we don't do something!
**[13:02] ---**
We're done for!
**[13:04] ---**
Vivi! Duck!
**[13:06] ---**
Gum-Gum...
**[13:15] ---**
Despite how he seems, you can
always count on Luffy in a pinch!
**[13:19] ---**
Yeah. But what concerns me
more is the desert's fickleness.
**[13:23] ---**
The desert's fickleness?
**[13:25] ---**
Yeah. The desert is honest.
**[13:29] ---**
A slight change in weather or
people's hearts will change it greatly.
**[13:34] ---**
A change in people's hearts?
**[13:38] ---**
What's that?
**[14:12] ---**
Boss! It's them!
**[14:14] ---**
They're coming!
**[14:16] ---**
--Turn to starboard! Hurry!
--Battle stations!
**[14:27] ---**
You wanna get in my way, too?
**[14:42] ---**
--There are so many of them!
--Who are they?
**[14:45] ---**
Desert bandits! Pests who're
always desperately fighting us!
**[14:51] ---**
Conflict seems imminent these days!
That has them on edge, too!
**[14:58] ---**
Looks like you can't move!
You're finally ours today!
**[15:01] ---**
Men! Don't let a single
one of them leave alive!
**[15:08] ---**
Our pleasure! Our pleasure!
**[15:12] ---**
What is this, a pub?
**[15:14] ---**
The desert has pit us together!
**[15:17] ---**
Will the desert choose us,
the Barbar Pirates, or you?!
**[15:21] ---**
Let's let the desert
decide our fate in battle!
**[15:26] ---**
Fool! Fool! The desert'd never choose you!
**[15:36] ---**
What's that?
**[15:37] ---**
--Grand Dung Beetle!
--There's a Grand Dung Beetle!
**[15:40] ---**
--Grand Dung Beetle?
--Say what now?!
**[15:43] ---**
Desert bugs that haul giant balls of dung!
**[15:46] ---**
No less than 100 people a year
are squished by their rolling dung!
**[15:51] ---**
Eh?!
**[16:02] ---**
Boss! It's headed right for our ship!
**[16:11] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[16:43] ---**
Thanks, guests...
**[16:48] ---**
We'll let you off easy this time!
Your lives are spared for now!
**[16:55] ---**
That deserves a
warm shower of applause.
**[16:59] ---**
Rasa! Don't you think
you went a little too far?!
**[17:01] ---**
--They're not following!
--That's fine!
**[17:05] ---**
If she won't come
however much we wait,
**[17:07] ---**
that's just the level of a person she is!
**[17:32] ---**
We caught up!
**[17:35] ---**
Yay!
**[17:44] ---**
This oasis is completely buried in sand.
**[17:48] ---**
It was once a flourishing city, but...
**[17:51] ---**
You've been here before?
**[17:53] ---**
The people of this city gave me
a small sand-sled as a memento.
**[18:00] ---**
That was a very long time ago, though.
**[18:05] ---**
I stopped by here once with my father
**[18:09] ---**
when he was traveling around the country.
**[18:12] ---**
I've been waiting all this time.
**[18:19] ---**
Back then, the king told us,
**[18:21] ---**
"If anything happens to this oasis,
I will come rushing to help.
**[18:26] ---**
The kingdom won't ignore any voice,
no matter how small."
**[18:31] ---**
So you were that girl!
**[18:35] ---**
Eventually, this oasis was
buried in sand and abandoned.
**[18:39] ---**
Every last person in town left.
**[18:43] ---**
Even so, I stayed behind
and waited for you.
**[18:48] ---**
I believed in you...
**[18:50] ---**
But the king never came. Nor you, of course.
**[18:56] ---**
That's because similar incidents
were happening all over the country
**[19:00] ---**
and the king was busy every
day trying to combat it!
**[19:03] ---**
I don't want to hear your excuses!
**[19:06] ---**
I waited all alone in the
middle of this vast desert!
**[19:14] ---**
Eventually, I couldn't
differentiate between dawn and dusk.
**[19:20] ---**
By the time Barbarossa took me in,
I couldn't feel anything,
**[19:25] ---**
not even the midday scorching heat
or the freezing cold after sunset.
**[19:31] ---**
The fact that I was even alive baffled me.
**[19:34] ---**
But, inside my head,
the king's words continue to ring.
**[19:42] ---**
Even now, I don't understand it.
**[19:44] ---**
Things were so difficult,
so what exactly was I waiting for?
**[19:49] ---**
Just what kept me going?
**[19:53] ---**
Hate? Anger? Or inexistent hope?
**[19:59] ---**
What was it?!
**[20:02] ---**
Someone tell me...
**[20:19] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[20:23] ---**
I'm so sorry for making you wait...
**[20:30] ---**
I'm so sorry!
**[20:46] ---**
They sure ran off in a hurry!
**[20:49] ---**
Though it's too bad we didn't get
to swipe any of their food or water.
**[20:54] ---**
Sand pirates sure have it tough, too...
**[20:56] ---**
Everything living in this
desert has it the same.
**[20:59] ---**
Long ago, I used to feel this
desert belonged to everyone.
**[21:04] ---**
But when I think about it now,
I feel like that's a bit conceited.
**[21:10] ---**
Lately, I've come to think that
it might not belong to anyone.
**[21:15] ---**
That we're able to live freely
because it belongs to no one.
**[21:22] ---**
Do you think the sea is the same way?
**[21:23] ---**
Good question.
**[21:25] ---**
That's something you'll have
to find out for yourselves.
**[21:31] ---**
There it is! We made it!
**[21:47] ---**
Luffy! Where are you?!
**[22:00] ---**
Like the adventurers
I dreamed of when I was a child
**[22:05] ---**
I continue on to the ends of emotion
**[22:11] ---**
I scoop up my hands,
**[22:17] ---**
and the sand and time
that spills from them
**[22:23] ---**
show me that this is
what I was born to do
**[22:30] ---**
Let's continue swimming
at a near-tumbling speed
**[22:42] ---**
Until we wash up someday
on a white sandy beach
**[22:53] ---**
no one knows about
**[23:10] ---**
--Say, Luffy. Where's your brother?
--Dunno.
**[23:12] ---**
He's worse at directions
than this guy?!
**[23:14] ---**
Huh?! Who're you
talking about, Pervy Cook?!
**[23:17] ---**
Who else is there besides you?
**[23:19] ---**
Hey! I got food and water!
**[23:21] ---**
--Big brother! How?!
--Got it from the rebel army!
**[23:24] ---**
Come again?!
**[23:25] ---**
On the next episode of One Piece!
**[23:27] ---**
"False Fortitude!
Camu, Rebel Soldier at Heart!"
**[23:30] ---**
I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
**[23:33] ---**
