A world... Yes!

A world for you who seek freedom

stretches out right before your eyes.

If your endless dreams are your guide,

surpass them, under the flag of your beliefs!

Making a splash, I've just started on my search

Heading towards a world without end

My heart bursting with enthusiasm, I'll go to the ends of the earth

In search of light yet unseen

When the summer sun sways the sails of my heart

It's the cue to open the door to a new world

Sailing through the rocky waves of despair

We head beyond the horizon

Making a splash, I've just started on my search

Heading towards a world without end

My heart bursting with enthusiasm, I'll go to the ends of the earth

In search of light yet unseen

"Upper Yard" "Lovely Street" "Angel Beach"

After a great adventure,

Luffy and company finally reached the sky island of Skypiea.

However, Nami's group was taken away by "Heaven's Judgment,"

so Luffy and the others headed for God's island of Upper Yard,

with Conis leading the way, but...

The Crow!

You can't be serious!

Crows...

aren't even waterfowl.

Your exit is Gate #2.

It will lead you to the giant Milky Road, which connects to Upper Yard.

Y-You simply need to take that.

Hey. Conis.

Yes?

Why've you been shaking ever since we left your house?

Forgive me, Conis-san...

It is our citizens' duty.

Could you run away?

I was the one who called the Super-Express Lobster!

Once we know someone's a criminal,

we'll be killed if we don't lead them to the place of judgment!

Thank goodness! Conis-chan...!

I know who you are.

Please come back...

...God!

"Onward, Crow! To the Sacrificial Altar"

Is Conis gonna be alright?

She tried to save us and wound up as an accomplice!

She's gonna have hell to pay for sure!

That old Sky Knight said he'd hold on to her, but...

Nah, that weird old guy doesn't seem bad.

Got no other choice.

I wanna protect her, but we can't take her with us, either.

Yeah, we probably are in more danger than her...

What with a "sacrificial altar" and some "ordeal" waiting for us...

Geez, this thing is slow...

Of course it is. It's many times heavier than a waver.

Don't be picky!

Hey, look! What's that humongous forest?!

Is that Upper Yard?!

Wow! Was there a forest like that on the map?!

No, there is a forest here,

but it's nothing like this.

It's just a normal one.

People from 200 years ago had that map, right?

It might've been an old map when they had it.

It'd take at least a thousand years for such giant trees to grow!

That's true...

But they sure are big trees!

I wanna climb 'em!

It's the entrance!

Well, if we're gonna turn back, now's our chance.

You ready, Usopp?

Eh?! Well, if it's possible, I'd like to go back--

Let's go!

You weren't planning to listen to me!

I wanna go back...

There's things here!

Well, it is a forest!

Yeah.

No, wait! Look around, you guys!

These are wrecked ships!

It is a forest!

Yeah.

How are they related?!

Plus they've all been sliced right in half...!

Not again!

Forests are full of all kinds of stuff, you--

No!

Full speed ahead! All ahead full! Paddle! Paddle, hurry! Forward!

Huh? What's going on?

A sickle monster!

Don't let your guard down! Another one's coming!

No... Not just one...!

Paddle like crazy!

What the hell is this?!

Watch where you're going! Hit the brake, Luffy!

No, we're not gonna make it! Take the wheel, Usopp!

Gum-Gum...

Hey, Luffy! What're you doing?! Aim forward!

Just keep moving forward!

...Bazooka!

Dodged it!

That was close!

There's still more?!

Now spears?!

--Usopp! Right! --No, left!

--Which one?! --Just dodge 'em!

They just keep coming!

They're gonna get us sooner or later!

What a pain! All together! Gum-Gum...

...Pinwheel!

Made it through...

I sure hope there's no more of this...!

Now what?!

We dodged it!

No...

It's coming back!

Dodge!

That damn Super-Express Lobster just deserted us here...

Where exactly are we?

"God"

What's for certain is that it's the interior of Upper Yard...

It's almost as if this is a sacrifice altar...

Sacrifice... altar?

Nami. What's a "sacrifice"?

It means being offered to God while you're alive.

Oh, that's all?

I thought it meant being boiled alive or something...

Hot!

Actually, it's something like that...

Whatever the method, your life is given to God.

Eh?! Does that mean we are going to be killed?!

Chopper!

Geez!

What is that?!

A shark... in the sky... A skyshark?

Zoro!

Zoro!

Can't see much...! Where the hell is it?!

I'm way out of my element!

I can't move as well as I can on land...!

Damn! Damn! Damn!

We dodged it!

It's coming back!

I'm sick of this place! You couldn't have enough lives to survive this!

I'm going back, I don't care what anyone says!

No! Usopp!

Shaddup! I'm captain of the Crow!

Since when?!

Since now!

Even if we do go back,

there's no guarantee we'll return safely. See?

It's coming back!

Alright, you! Gum-Gum...

That's it!

Get it, Luffy!

I can't think of anything.

Just dodge! Our only option now is to run!

We managed to dodge it...

But this is bad! Now we can't even go back!

We've come a long way from the entrance...!

Wanna get off here?

Don't be stupid! I'll die!

Yeah, probably.

What was that?! A snake?!

A lamprey. A "sky lamprey," I guess?

One that big'll do more than suck a little blood!

What a neat forest!

Neat, my butt!

If this is our "ordeal," I've had enough!

But we just entered the forest.

We're in for big trouble if we stop or dawdle on this Milky Road...

Looks like our only choice is to keep moving!

What happened to you, Zoro?!

There he is!

Zoro!

The skyshark is beating Zoro!

H-He went under again!

Zoro isn't coming back up!

Do you think... he got eaten?!

Zoro was eaten!

If he was eaten, the clouds would turn red.

How can you say something so scary so calmly, Robin?!

I'm sick of you!

This is bad...

Doesn't look like swimming outta here will do us any good...

You punched that shark! I thought you were a swordsman?!

You're so strong, Zoro!

What happened to your so-called "swordsman pride"?

Will you quit nagging about everything?!

There wasn't just one!

There's a whole swarm of skysharks!

We'll be here all night if we try to take on every single one.

Can't get even get to shore like this...

Though we can't just sit here, either.

That giant lobster brought us to one hell of a place...

Do you suppose starving us here is "Heaven's Judgment"?

Would God really do something so bland?

I don't know. I've never met him before.

This is bad...

We can't set sail with the hull like this.

Try to fix the ship somehow, Chopper.

Eh?! Me?! Okay.

Fix it? Are you planning to do something?

I'm gonna get into this forest somehow.

We should probably make this our base of operations.

I'm sure Luffy and the others are headed here in search of us.

It's like they say, "If you get lost, stay where you are."

Especially you!

Say, Zoro.

You said you're gonna go into the forest, but what for?

God's on this island, right? I'm gonna go meet him.

I'm telling you, that's a bad idea!

What if you run into those freaks?!

Dunno. Depends on how they act.

Zoro... You seem even mightier than God...

He has priests on this island too, you know!

We can't make God angry!

It's common sense, you know!

Sorry, but...

...I've never once prayed to God.

So cool!

Don't believe in him, either. So I got no obligation to him.

Oh, Lord! I have nothing to do with him!

Please don't punish me!

You're so awesome, Zoro!

Damn... I wish this would end already...!

This is just a warm-up!

Supposedly, there are neat-sounding priests waiting for us ahead!

So, what, you're saying none of this was part of our "ordeal"?!

Yeah, I doubt it.

You saw that attack back at the docks.

I dunno how it works, but that's some incredible power.

One hit from that and you're a goner.

Yeah...

This "God Eneru" is mysterious.

Seems like he's been keeping constant watch over us...

Do you think God was in that town?!

He'd have to have been, to attack so accurately like that...

No, not necessarily. We are talking about God here!

He might be able to foresee everything!

He might even be watching us at this very moment!

When did you become such a believer?

You're not even from here!

That's not the issue.

God is great, right?

You gotta bow to great people, even if you don't mean it!

Then you can worry about other things!

I guess, but there are un-great gods in the world, too.

Like the gods of poverty... and pestilence...

Who're you referring to?!

All that said, looks like our next guest is here to see us!

Not another one!

That vine looks usable.

You're right. Good idea.

Mind if I join you, Mr. Swordsman?

Huh?! No, but don't be slowin' me down!

Hold on! Where are you going, Robin?!

Look at this.

At least a thousand years have passed since this altar was built.

A thousand years?!

Historical things like this make my body tingle...!

Where there is great history,

there should be just as many old relics...

I'd wager even a few jewel fragments would help out our ship.

I'm coming, too!

Eh?! After you were so scared?!

It's for historical investigation!

She has Berries in her eyes...

How's that?

Perfect.

What is that? A catchphrase?

Robin is amazing!

She did it so easily...

I'm kind of high up...

It's about 50 meters. Mess up and you die!

Could you please not say that?!

I really am a goner if I fall!

Nami...

Alright, fine! I'm going! Is that what you want?!

T-Too fast! I can't stop!

See, you have guts.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Not at all.

That's what you get for not going, "Aa-aa-aa!"

Is that the issue here?!

This certainly is a big forest...

Okay, Chopper! You're in charge of the ship!

We're counting on you!

We'll be back soon!

Right! Be careful, everyone!

Come back safe, now!

I guess Nami is okay, since she has Zoro and Robin...

I'm too scared to go...

Everyone is so brave and amazing!

I wonder if I'll be brave, too, someday?

Anyway, I'll do everything I can now!

Being all alone and in charge of the ship in this dangerous forest

is proof that everyone trusts in me!

I gotta do my best!

Yeah! I'm all alone in this dangerous place--

I'm the one in the most danger!

A lamprey!

Hey, do you think that huge thing would taste good roasted?

Forget it. This is no time for cooking.

Darn. Gum-Gum...

...Pistol!

Sky islands are scary... Sky islands are scary...

Wanna get off here?

Are you stupid?! You're asking me to die!

I'm scared! Gimme a break!

Now there's a giant!

No. That's a statue!

Oh. But it's a total dead-end!

No, there are four entrances!

Don't tell me they each lead to different places?!

"Swamp Ordeal"

"Swamp Ordeal"...

"Iron Ordeal"

"Iron Ordeal"...

"String Ordeal"

"String Ordeal"...

"Ball Ordeal"

"Ball Ordeal"...

Are we allowed to go in any one?!

Is God trying to play games with us or something?!

Four ordeals...

Which do we choose?

Even if we're far apart

I don't want you to forget

That on those days when you're brought to tears

You have a friend here to share the pain

That far-off feeling we refuse to concede

I won't let it just be a dream

The eternal brilliance that everyone is searching for

We will surely embrace it with our own hands

What do we do? Which do we go in?

Ball! Ball! It sounds like fun!

These are ordeals! They're not gonna be fun!

Whatever, it's decided. Just don't let your guard down!

What is this place?!

Balls! Balls!

How is this an ordeal?!

On the next episode of One Piece!

"10% Survival Rate! Satori, the Mantra Master!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
