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!

"Rainbase" "Alubarna" "Yuba" "Erumalu" "Nanohana" "Katorea" "Spiders Café"

Three years have passed since a single drop of rain fell

in the kingdom of oases.

Seeing hope beyond turmoil, the people took up weapons.

The burning land is now enveloped by a sad bellowing

and a mighty swell.

To stop the maelstrom of war spreading throughout Alabasta,

Princess Vivi was in a rush to talk with the rebel army.

However...

I wanna kick Crocodile's ass!

If we stop the people rebelling, will that stop Crocodile?

At least try putting all of our lives on the line together!

Aren't we friends?!

Now tell me...

...where Crocodile is!

It was at this moment that Vivi made up her mind.

"The Battlefront of Alabasta! Rainbase, the City of Dreams"

Everyone...

Luffy-san is exactly right. I've made up my mind now.

Let's go to where Crocodile is!

Yeah!

That does seem to be the quickest shortcut.

Meaning no more of this annoying, roundabout traveling.

So, where is this damn Crocodile?

Let's see here...

This is the capital city of Alubarna, where my father rules from.

And the rebel army is currently here, preparing to invade Alubarna.

So we need to take care of Crocodile before that can happen.

Crocodile is here. Rainbase.

Rainbase...

It's about a day's journey north of here.

C'mon, I told you to quit moaning, you two!

Who're you to say anything when you're riding the camel?!

Yeah! Let us ride, too!

You camel-woman!

Nami-mel!

Good one!

Chopper! You haven't collapsed today!

Yeah. I'm gonna try extra hard.

Vivi. Does Rainbase have water?

Yes, there's no problem there.

It's a gambling town, almost completely detached from the rebellion.

Ooh! Gambling?!

Hey, now! What're you thinking?!

I guess even here in Alabasta there are carefree cities.

Gum-Gum No Way!

No! No! No!

Gimme some!

Gum-Gum No Way!

C'mon! Just one sip! That is why we have it!

That dry old guy spent all night digging this water up!

We can't just drink it like it's nothing! You dumbhead!

Wow! Sometimes you can restrain yourself!

Of course I can! How rude!

You're rude!

Can't take another step... W-Water...

So?! How long until Rainbase?!

Luffy-san.

Thanks. I never would've been able to make this decision on my own.

Then gimme food.

Eh?

After I kick Crocodile's ass, gimme so much food I might die!

Okay! I promise!

"Rebel Army Camp in Katorea"

Please, Koza! Let me join the rebel army!

No.

Why not?! I have the right to join the rebellion too, don't I?!

I despise the king! Let me fight with you!

Show him, Faracla.

He got this trying to protect me in the middle of a battle.

Would you like to see the medical wards and the graves too?

T-That doesn't scare me!

Towns've dried up, and many have died 'cause the king stole the rain!

It made lots of my friends sick, too!

It's all the king's fault!

I wanna fight, too!

I'm not afraid of getting hurt or even dying!

Then leave. Our opinions are too different.

We're all afraid, and none of us want to fight.

Then why do you fight?!

It's not that we wanted to. We had to.

That's what the country wished for.

Whether you understand or not, it has nothing to do with you.

Leave.

I said leave, dammit! This is no place for children!

What was that about, Koza?

It's not like you to rant and rave at children.

It was like looking at my old self. It made me mad.

I haven't changed one bit...

Have we gathered enough weapons?

No, it's proving difficult...

Contact all the other towns.

As soon as we have weapons,

we launch an all-out assault on Alubarna!

Sire! It's only a matter of time until the rebel army attacks Alubarna!

We must take action first, before it's too late!

Silence! I told you no!

This is not a children's quarrel! Is retaliation what you want?!

But, Sire! The country's existence hangs in the balance!

So what?

Ever since the Dance Powder incident, it has been clear

that someone is trying to destroy our country!

Are you suggesting we destroy our countrymen

before learning who's really pulling the strings?

That would be the downfall of our country!

Listen! A country is its people!

However, this wire-puller has not shown himself whatsoever!

Taking action after this unknown shadow devours our country

would be too late, Sire!

No. Please understand.

The king won't allow us to take the offensive.

We can barely even appease the soldiers at this point.

If only Igaram-san were here at a time like this...

Igaram says he's leaving the country for a while?

As we speak, he and Vivi-sama

are probably still hard at work, trying to figure out who's behind this.

I wonder where they are.

Chaka-sama! Pell-sama!

What is it?!

Karoo has returned!

Karoo has?!

Sire! Who is that letter from?!

It's Vivi's handwriting, without a doubt...

Sire! Does that mean--?!

Karoo came to deliver a letter from Vivi-sama?!

Father. Everything written here is true. It is fact.

The person trying to bring suffering and ruin to this kingdom

is none other than Crocodile!

Igaram is another who has fallen at the hands of Crocodile.

Crocodile! I stupidly believed he worked for the government!

I never would've imagined he was trying to usurp this kingdom!

Igaram-san...

He gave his life for Vivi-sama and this land...

And now, there are people who have given me unfathomable power.

If I continue with them, we may make a difference in this kingdom.

The light of hope is here! Alabasta will be saved!

Please have faith, Father!

Vivi.

It says you fought valiantly, too, Karoo. You've done well.

You're hurt? Let me see.

At any rate, no matter what happens,

this thing on our left arm is the sign of our friendship!

Chaka.

We know the enemy's identity! Prepare the soldiers for expedition!

I will not let Vivi's resolve and Igaram's death be for naught!

We're taking immediate action!

We're heading to Rainbase, where Crocodile is!

Please wait, Sire! Rainbase is too far away to be "immediate"!

Crocodile has the citizens on his side!

Even more so than you, with all due respect...

If we attack Rainbase,

the rebel army will use that as a chance to storm the palace!

And if that happens--!

So what if the rebel army destroys this palace?!

I've told you before! A country is its people!

Even if our royal army falls, as long as Crocodile is defeated,

the country will be reborn by the people!

But, consider if we clash with the rebel army instead!

Crocodile is the only one who will have the last laugh!

Sire...

You're that dedicated to--?

Even if by some chance the rebel army doesn't stop,

we need only take out Crocodile!

We're up against one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Crocodile is not weak of heart.

This battle will not be without sacrifices before its end.

Chaka! I'm holding a war meeting! Assemble the officers!

Pell! Go on ahead and conduct enemy reconnaissance!

Yes, Sire!

It seems we've been severely underestimating His Majesty.

What powerful spirit!

We go to battle tomorrow morning!

Yes, Sire!

I'm sending all soldiers to Rainbase!

I see it...

Is that it?

Rainbase?

Oh! Are we here?!

Crocodile!

Alright! Time to beat up Crocodile!

So this is Rainbase!

By the way, does Baroque Works know we're in this country now?

Most likely.

We did run into Mr. 2, so we should assume they know we're here.

So what?!

They know what we look like!

We can't do much of anything while we're in Rainbase!

Why not?!

If we get spotted first,

Crocodile can probably deal with us in all kinds of ways.

Assassination is their area of specialty.

Come out, Crocodile!

Were you even listening?!

In any case, no matter who we run into,

I'll protect Nami-san and Vivi-chan!

You two girls can call me "Prince"!

Prince.

Don't make me kick your ass!

Prince... Water...

Water...

Shut up, you guys!

Water! Need water!

Me too!

Water! Water!

Wait! Luffy!

Take money with you!

Captain Smoker.

Why do you think the Straw Hats will show up here, in Rainbase?

Dunno. Call it a hunch.

Alright!

We can get water here, Usopp!

Water!

Plus, something stinks about this country.

I get a strong sense that something big is lurking in the shadows.

Old lady! Water!

A barrel of water! No, five! Five barrels of water!

Then you think there really is a connection

between the Baroque Works criminal organization and Straw Hat?

Here!

Water!

All I know is that Straw Hat is out to get Crocodile...

...one of the Seven Warlords.

This water's great, you jerk!

It's great, you bastard!

Let's hurry and take the others some!

I need to take a leak.

Can we really count on them?

They can do little errands just fine. Don't worry.

I dunno. I bet they'll come back with a bunch of trouble again.

I'd do warm-up exercises if I were you.

--Run! --Yeah!

--Run! --Yeah!

Got that barrel?!

Yeah!

Damn it!

We're going after 'em, Tashigi! Gather the marines!

Yes, sir!

Umm, how much do I owe you?

If you know those kids, you better pay for the water they took, too!

Y-Yes! I'm sorry for the trouble!

Why is the Navy here again?!

How should I know?! Just run!

The Navy's chasing 'em again!

No way!

So why are they running this way?!

Say! Tony-kun hasn't come back yet!

Leave him! He'll manage!

Hey, guys! The Navy's here!

You're the one bringing them here!

Catch 'em for sure this time!

They're quick to run away, I'll give 'em that!

This isn't a good idea!

Baroque Works is gonna spot us...

...if we run through the city!

I think it's too late for that.

Then it's decided! Let's go!

Eh?!

To where Crocodile is!

Right, Vivi?!

Yes! Do you see that alligator-roof building up ahead?!

That's the casino Crocodile runs...

Raindinners!

There, huh?! So that's where Crocodile is?!

It'd be best if we split up!

It looks that way!

Alright! See you later!

Yeah!

Let's meet at the alligator house!

They split up!

Don't let 'em escape!

Come and get me, Smokey!

You got real guts!

Don't think you can keep running forever!

White Vine!

Gum-Gum...

...Balloon!

That was close!

Damn!

Ahh! Much better!

Where did everyone go?

That's Luffy's smell!

That's Zoro's smell!

Sanji's goes that way!

What's going on?!

Outta the way!

Whoops!

Mr. Bushido! This direction, too!

It's them! No doubt about it!

Kill 'em!

The Baroque Works Millions!

"Stuck between the devil and the deep sea," huh?

Go on without me!

Hurry!

R-Right!

Usopp!

Look after Nami-san!

What?!

I'll hold 'em off!

Alright! You can count on me!

Sanji-kun...

Go!

We are!

Without that smoke freak around, they're just small fries.

My deepest condolences.

I hope Mr. Bushido will be all right!

Is that all you got? Try again some other time.

Roronoa Zoro! We meet again!

That voice...

I've been looking for you for a long time!

What do you think you're doing, cutting down regular citizens?!

Look, I got my own circumstances, too!

Besides, I have no desire to fight you!

We settled our match in Loguetown!

We did not!

I haven't even laid a single blow yet!

She looks like her! Way too much like her!

And quit it with that face, will ya?!

C-Come again?! Are you trying to ridicule me yet again?!

You will pay for this!

Dammit! She's the one person I can't deal with!

Wait!

Bastards! Get back here!

No!

It's definitely them!

W-We did it!

Way to go, Usopp!

Look! Up ahead! The entrance to Raindinners!

It's in the middle of a lake!

Is no one here yet?!

Alright! Let's blast 'em!

Start with those two!

The enemy?!

Zoro!

Wasn't Vivi with you?!

Yeah! Is she not here yet?!

She might've gone inside!

Let's hurry, then!

Luffy!

Get back here!

Plume-Plume is with him!

Hey! Let's go! Run inside, guys!

We're going in?

He's in there...

...isn't he?!

Oh? Vivi and the pirates are here in town?

Yes. We just received word from the Millions.

Go welcome the foolish rats.

Yes, sir.

Listen, Crocodile! I'm going to kick your ass!

I'm coming for you!

Like the adventurers I dreamed of when I was a child

I continue on to the ends of emotion

I scoop up my hands, and the sand and time that spills from them

show me that this is what I was born to do

Let's continue swimming at a near-tumbling speed

Until we wash up someday on a white sandy beach

no one knows about

Crocodile! Come out! I came to Alubarna to kick your ass!

That's not gonna make him come out! You're so dumb!

We're up against the kingdom's hero!

Are you gonna make these customers our enemies too?!

But without Vivi, we don't know who Crocodile is!

Huh? Come to think of it, where is Vivi?

On the next episode of One Piece!

"The Trap of Certain Defeat! Storming Raindinners"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
