Original subtitles

Inherited will...

The tide of the times... People's dreams...

These things cannot be stopped.

As long as people seek the answer of freedom,

these things will never cease to be!

I only believe in the future-- I don't care if anyone laughs

That racing passion makes you shine

It's too bright, but I want to gaze at it

I sense "aesthetics" somewhere

I'm really, really stuck on you

I follow, follow in the footsteps of a dream that resembles no one

Until I dramatically get it

Believe In Wonderland!

I'm going to catch, catch the shape of a dream no one can see

I'm going to go with you, so passionate feelings

I don't really need everything to add up

Rather than run-of-the-mill daily life,

run for paradise instead

Believe In Wonderland!

It's a "guiding light." The entrance to the Grand Line lies ahead of that light.

In order to find the All Blue!

In order to be King of the Pirates!

In order to become a master swordsman!

In order to draw a world map!

I-In order...

...to become a brave warrior of the sea!

We're going...

...to the Grand Line!

"Precursor to a New Adventure! Apis, a Mysterious Girl"

Hey, it's meal time.

Hm?

She's gone?! Hey! Where're you?! Where're you hiding?!

Hey! It's no use! It's storming outside!

Just come out!

Ouch!

Ow, ow, ow...

Hey!

I'm telling you, you can't escape.

If you stay put, we won't do anything to you.

No! Let me go!

Hey, calm down!

What're you doing?!

What?! What?!

The girl escaped!

Search the whole ship!

Take her into custody as soon as you find her!

She's still a child. Don't be rough on her!

Ow, ow, ow...

There she is!

Capture her!

Hey! Hold it!

It's dangerous!

Come down!

We can't have the sail unfurled like that in this storm!

Please protect me, Grandpa Ryu.

Wh-What're you going to do?!

Ahhh! It's dangerous! Stop it!

Idiots! What is this report?!

That girl may be a clue to the Dragonite that I've spent years searching for!

Don't you realize how serious this is?!

Y-Yes, sir!

Eric!

I've been here all along.

I can't lose a clue to the elixir of immortality after I've finally found it.

Go join my fleet and find her no matter what it takes.

With all due respect,

tracking down someone wasn't in the contract.

I'll pay you however much you want.

I hired you for a time like this.

Losing a clue now will be a blow for you as well, will it not?

Now, go!

Understood, Your Excellency, Commodore Nelson Royal.

Nami! Aren't we in the Grand Line yet?

We just left Loguetown two days ago.

It'll take a few more days. Wait a little longer.

Okay!

What nice weather!

That storm seems like a dream.

Hm...?

What the heck is that?

Hey! I see a flock of birds to starboard!

A flock of birds?

Yeah.

I also see something kind of big on the water...

I can't see it well. I wonder what it is.

Maybe a fish?

A small boat...?

It could be a big fish, too, but...

I often hear that seabirds flock above fish.

Fish?!

Luffy! Let's have them for lunch.

Alrighty!

Gum-Gum...

Grab!

Whoa! Now that's a stretch!

His body sure is convenient.

I caught it!

It's pretty big!

Nice, Luffy!

H-Hold on a second... What're you gonna do now?

Oh... Sorry, Zoro.

Dumbass!!

I'm gonna... cut him down... someday...

Hey, look. That's no fish.

It's a girl!

Oh? Is she a fishperson? Where's her web?

You idiot. Just how does she look like a fishperson?

Why was a little girl in a small boat like that...?

Ouch!

So you've come to?

Seems you're doing better than I expected.

Does it hurt anywhere?

You must be hungry. I'm cooking soup right now.

Lucky!

Were you in a ship wreck or something?

You could've been in big trouble. What's your name?

When you ask someone questions, you should give your name first.

Good point. My name is Nami.

The one who's cooking soup in the kitchen is Sanji.

Hi!

The one with a scary face wearing a bellyband is Zoro.

Shut up.

The one who's unconscious over there is Usopp. And...

I'm Luffy. I'm the captain of this pirate ship.

What?!

Pirates?!

We're heading to the Grand Line.

What's wrong?

She isn't moving.

What're we gonna do with this kid?

Ahhh, well, what should we do?

Let's think about it tomorrow.

Why?!

Why? Why? Why? Why in the heck?!

I went through all that trouble and did scary things to escape from the Navy!

Of all things, why did I get picked up by a pirate ship?

This isn't funny!

In any case, I'll think about it after I eat something.

Ouch...

You again?

You never learn no matter how many times I tell you, Luffy.

Can't you get it through your thick skull?

Hm? What're you doing?

Yum!

If you ask, I'll make something for you.

So, like I told you, don't take food without asking.

But I'm hungry.

What's wrong? Aren't you eating?

You didn't eat this afternoon, either.

Why're you holding back?

I'm telling ya, it's not poisoned or anything.

If you just sit there like that, he'll finish everything.

If you're not eating, I'll eat it!

No!

Huh?

Yum!!

Of course! Sanji's the cook I picked!

I've never eaten anything this good!

You're finally smiling.

Oh, Nami-san!

You're eating again, Luffy?!

I didn't eat that much for lunch.

You emptied two pots, didn't you?

I did?

You got scared when you heard we're pirates, didn't you?

W-Well...

Well, that's a natural reaction towards pirates these days.

You're not gonna sell me off?

No way!

You're all evil-looking, so...

You've got a right to talk with that face?

What're you doing?!

Ahh! That's enough!

We have more, mademoiselle.

At least, this ship isn't the kind of pirate ship you're thinking of.

Don't worry.

Another plate, please!

As you wish.

Me, too!

Do it yourself!

You meanie...

Wo-oah!

Huh?

Wh-What happened?

Hey! Just what'd you do?

I was preparing a meal!

What?

Everyone! Breakfast is ready!

Oh, breakfast?!

What breakfast explodes?

You made this?

Yep!

It has quite... a unique appearance...

Thanks! I'm digging in!

In addition to rescuing me, you're feeding me, too.

I'll do anything to help you from now on!

Uh... uhm...

That'll be helpful... Thank you.

Is this really edible?

Stop grumbling and just eat it!

But seriously, is it really safe to eat?

Really? This is good.

That's right. It's possible that just the appearance is bad.

Really?

W-Was it that bad?

Whoa! That's spicy!

What is this?! I put in the wrong seasoning!

Well, that's a common mistake.

You'll be fine if you are careful next time.

Hey, she took the trouble to prepare it for us.

Eat every crumb!

Shut up! Don't waste this girl's kindness. This girl's...

Oh, what's your name, by the way?

Apis! My name is Apis!

Apis-chan put her heart into this food!

Plus, I won't allow anyone to waste food!

I'll cook something for you later, Nami-san.

Thanks.

I'm sorry. I'm not good at cooking... but I wanted to be helpful!

Don't worry about it. We really appreciate the thought.

Leave the cooking to me.

There're many other things that you could help out with.

Okay!

Really? This is good.

You...

I wanna eat barbecue next. I haven't had it for a while.

Say, why were you drifting on the sea, Apis?

I escaped from a Navy ship...

From a Navy ship?

...during the stormy night three days ago...

In that small boat in such a storm...

You're reckless.

So what'd you do in the first place?

What?

You had to escape,

which means you weren't on their ship as a guest, right?

But then the Navy wouldn't go after every little villain.

W-Well... uhm...

What? Are you a super villain?

No! There's no way I'd do bad things!

I never did bad things... but I can't tell you why...

What's that about...?

What's the big deal? She must have her reasons.

If she doesn't want to say, then we shouldn't press her.

That's true. But can you at least tell us where you're from?

What? Oh, yes...

I'm from Warship Island.

Warship Island?

Do you know it?

No. I'll check it out.

Why is it called Warship Island?

It's because the shape of the island looks exactly like a warship.

Oh, that's interesting.

Ahh! This is the one!

Oh, it's close to the Grand Line.

We're around here right now, so it's not that far.

What do you wanna do?

What?

Do you wanna go back to Warship Island?

If we keep sailing like this, we are going to enter the Grand Line.

You were nice enough to save me and I feel bad burdening you further...

but I want to go back to the island! I'm sorry. I'm selfish, aren't I?

If you hand me to a ship heading west on your way if possible,

I'll work things out on my own.

Oh my, that's a real burden!

There's no way that a pirate ship can get close to another ship so easily.

Yeah, you're right.

But since it's not totally out of our way

and we're not really in a hurry...

Oh, what the heck?

What?!

It doesn't matter either way to me. What should we do, Captain?

Yeah, that sounds fine.

The Grand Line isn't that far, either, so...

I see. The island looks like a warship, huh?

Sounds like they've decided.

Really?!

Are you really going to stop by Warship Island for me?!

Yeah.

All right! Thank you, Luffy!

All right! All right! I'm so happy!

Thank you very much! Thank you!

Thank you very much, everyone!

To show my appreciation, I'll prepare lots of dishes every day!

No, that won't be necessary.

Why not?

Reporting!

Ship sighted ahead at 13 o'clock!

It's a mid-size caravel.

I see a flag with a skull mark on the main mast!

Pirates, huh?

They don't know their own station, sailing around in the seas

under Commodore Nelson's control.

I'm sure they're just small fries. Just leave them alone!

No. That flag doesn't belong to small fries.

If I remember correctly, that belongs to Straw Hat Luffy,

a man with a 30 million Berry bounty on his head.

Oh, the ones people have been talking about lately?

We still can't find the girl even with this big fleet.

It's possible that someone has her.

Not to mention, pirates of that caliber...

Isn't it going to be a problem if you leave them be, Lt. Commander?

Capture that ship!

I wonder what this feeling is...

Hey! I see ships approaching from the rear!

What?

Ugh! Oh, man!

They're Navy ships!

Navy?!

And it's not just one or two ships, either!

He's right!

But what's a fleet like that doing here?

What? What? What's going on?

Are they after my head?

That's a lot even for that!

It means that they need that many to capture me, right?

I'm amazing, aren't I?

How can you be so easygoing?!

Hm...? What's wrong?

Those ships belong to Branch 8!

I escaped from them!

What am I gonna do?

Hm...? There! I found her! I see the girl on their deck!

What?!

It was just as I said, wasn't it, Lt. Commander?

Did I hurt your pride?

But if you make a mistake and lose that girl...

...the clue to the elixir of immortality, the Dragonite,

I wonder how furious Commodore Nelson would get.

Prepare the main cannons! We'll capture that pirate ship!

Ugh! They're firing at us!!

Attention pirate ship! Stop the ship immediately!

Those were warning shots. The next shots will hit your ship!

There's no way we'd stop!

What're we gonna do, Luffy? If you wanna take 'em on, I'm with you.

Yeah. Why don't we?

Ahhh! W-Wait a sec!

Why are you guys always like this?!

What the heck are you gonna do against that fleet?!

Apis, go to the cabin downstairs.

We'll make a raid on them.

O-Okay...

A raid isn't gonna work!

We'll make it work.

You can't!

We're not saying you have to come. Back us up with the cannon.

What? So I'm staying on this ship? Okay, leave it to me!

And we'll get clear of them at full speed!

Hey, Apis. What's the matter?

You take care of the rest.

He said a wind is coming.

A strong wind is...

Zoro! Lean the sail towards the south!

Usopp and Sanji-kun, right rudder full! Hurry up!

O-Okay.

Yes, Nami-san!

What's going on?

A gust is coming. We'll ride it and get out of here.

If we fight them head on, we'll lose no matter how good we are.

We can take them, though...

This girl...

Their ship shows no signs of stopping.

They're mocking us!

Here goes!

Ahh! The pirate ship sped up and changed its route!

What?!

They're heading south!

South?! How foolish!

Do they know what's in that direction?!

What're you doing, Lt. Commander?! Go after them! Now!

Whoa! This is fast! This is a good wind.

Look at that, Luffy! The Navy's falling behind!

Whoa!

Ha! You guys're slow turtles!

No good! We can't catch up!

A Navy fleet falling behind such a small ship? Dimwit.

A small ship has better mobility!

I don't wanna hear excuses!

Lt. Commander, this ship will soon...

Lt. Commander!

I know!

Stop all the ships! Prepare to turn around!

Wait, Lt. Commander! Why are you stopping the ships?

If we keep going, we'll go into the Calm Belt!

So what? Go after them!

No!

You really don't appreciate the seriousness of this matter, do you?

We can't lose that girl now.

What're you going to say to Commodore Nelson?!

I'm prepared to take the punishment.

I can't just sit by and let this fleet

and my subordinates be swallowed by the sea!

No matter what you say, the chase ends here!

How... foolish...

The Navy isn't following us!

Did Captain Usopp scare the pants off them?

Amazing! Amazing! Just as you'd expect from our navigator!

Well done, Nami-san. To think you detected such a wind beforehand...

Well, it was like an instinct, though.

Oh, Nami-san is lovely when she's humble, too.

Well then, shall we head straight to Warship Island?

Really?!

Yeah, really.

Okay, then! To Warship Island, let's...

...go!!

What's wrong, Zoro?

You've had a serious look on your face for a while.

Well, I hope it's just my imagination.

What is?

I feel like this ship hasn't been moving at all for a while.

What?

Come to think of it, the sail isn't catching any wind at all...

Ah!

What's wrong, Nami?

Nami-san...?

Dammit...

We've entered the Calm Belt!!

My overflowing feelings don't connect

as I firmly squeeze your hand back

I'll set off by myself,

so keep watching me intently as I go into the distance

I was thinking about it a bit since this morning

Why is it so hot?

Starting from some point, I haven't been able to get away from that

I want to catch those feelings that rushed off,

and I'm already about to overtake myself, even

I want to embrace my dreams that have jumped out

With you, I can run there

What's the Calm Belt?

We'll head straight to Warship Island!

Ahhh!

He always makes us do reckless things!

Say, don't you think Apis has an air of secrecy about her?

Hey, look at that! Something incredible's there!

Th-That's...!

On the next episode on One Piece!

"Miraculous Creature! Apis's Secret and the Legendary Island."

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
