shinjita sono saki e to...

To the future I believe in...

The time is the Great Pirate Era.

Countless pirates fight \Ndesperately for the One Piece,

the great treasure left behind by \NGold Roger, King of the Pirates.

Monkey D. Luffy, a boy whose body turned \Nto rubber after he ate the Gum-Gum Fruit,

also takes to the sea to become \Nthe next King of the Pirates.

As Luffy and his friends \Novercome numerous adventures,

the World Government is less and \Nless able to ignore their existence.

This is exciting!

What kind of adventure \Nis waiting for us next?!

The crew, on its way to the New World,

will speed along the Grand Line again today!

After losing his brother Ace during \Nthe War of the Best against the Navy,

Luffy is consumed with sorrow.

Meanwhile, there is an untold story of the \Nbrothers Luffy and Ace from 10 years ago.

"To The Sea Someday! The \NPledge of the Three Brats!"

Here I come!

Gum-Gum...

...Pistol!

Now tell me...

What are you doing?!

One point!

I won't lose a fight!

And I will...

I wanna get stronger!

I'm gonna get stronger and I will...

I win, Sabo!

Dammit!

Damn! It's always a close \Nmatch between Ace and Sabo!

Sabo! You gotta fight me next!

Shouldn't you run?! I have no mercy!

Gum-Gum...

"Gum" again?

...Shield!

That's just stretching your fingers...

How interesting is this?

N-N-No, stop it!

Like I keep saying,

is there any point in having that power?

Dammit! It's not working! It was so close!

One more time!

No! The rule is only 100 \Nmatches per person a day.

Wait until tomorrow.

Luffy lost 50 times to me and Ace.

Me vs. Ace is 24 - 26.

I lost by 2. Dammit!

You guys! When I become 10 years \Nold, I'll beat you two up!

We'll be 13 then. Let's go \Nget something for dinner.

Okay, let's go for crocodiles!

I love crocodile meat!

Luffy, don't get eaten this time.

You were okay the last time \Nbecause you were swallowed whole.

You wait here, Luffy. You can't \Nswim so you'd slow us dow...

Crocodile meat!

--What?!\N--I said "wait"!!

The harsh environment of Mt. Corvo \Nmade them stronger day by day.

On the north side of this mountain,

there is the place where all uncertain \Nthings end up called Gray Terminal.

And on the north side of the Terminal,

there is a city with a solid stone \Nwall that doesn't let anyone enter.

The only entrance to the city \Nis called the Great Gate

through which twice daily passes mountains \Nof junk from all over the country.

--Oh, here they come!\N--let's go treasure hunting!

Residents of Gray Terminal visit the city \Nsometimes to sell recycled products.

Hey wait! What's in that package?

It's a crocodile-skin. I'm here to sell it.

Crocodile?

G-Go ahead!

Beyond the Great Gate, there is a boulevard \Nwhere all passersby can be clearly seen

and then there is Edge Town.

Edge Town - where all the thugs and \Ngangsters from the city hang out.

Hey, pops! Leave your package here!

Hey, why don't you say something?!

Shut up, you punk.

What?!

Y-You little...

When you mug somebody,

be careful who you pick!

Th-They are the...

Let's do this!

--Okay!\N--Okay!

In the middle of the walled city, \Nthere is another high stone wall

which encloses High Town where \Nroyalty and nobles live.

The name of this country is the Goa Kingdom.

There is no garbage on streets

and it is said \Nto be the most beautiful country in the East Blue.

Windmill Village where Luffy was born...

...is the part of the kingdom even \Nthough it's a forgotten backwater.

DOWNTOWN

I'm glad they paid so much for the skin!

We got more for the "pirate savings"!

I'm hungry!

Just a little longer. We'll \Nhave great ramen noodles!

What is ramen? Is it really good?

Whatever's fine! I wanna eat soon!

FINE DINING EIICHIRO

This is the restaurant!

Hi, may I help you?

W-W-Wait a minute!

What are you doing?! People \Nlike you are not allowed here!

The VIP room will do.

Th-That mark is...!

We're so honored to have a noble \Nlike you come to our restaurant!

We'll prepare a room right away!

That thing is pretty handy!

Yeah, I found it on the street a while ago.

Here are 3 ramen noodle bowls! \NThank you for waiting!

Enjoy your meal!

This is ramen?!

It looks good!

Well, try it.

Yum-yum!

Yeah, it is good!

I want more!

I need more. 3 more ramen noodles!

Yes, sir! Here they are!

More please!

Y-Yes, sir!

More!

Y-Yes, sir! Right away!

Next!

May I come in?

M-Manager!

Are you sure?!

Sir, we need to talk!

--Damn, they found out!\N--Let's go!

They didn't pay!

Catch them, somebody!

--The ramen noodles were great!\N--I told you!

--Catch them?!\N--They're only kids!

I-It's them again! They're such \Npests! Why were they let in?!

Don't let them run away! \NSomebody catch those 3 kids!

I can't believe that they \Njumped out of the window!

This is the 4th floor!

We lost 26 bowls of ramen \Nnoodles and a window!

M-Manager! They left a note!

TREASURE TAB - LUFFY

"Treasure tab"?!

Sabo?

That must be Sabo! Wait!

You're alive!

Let's go home!

Hey, Sabo! He's calling you!

Who is that?

He confused me with someone else. Let's go!

W-Wait!

Sabo...

What?! I'm not hiding anything!

Oh, you aren't?

Yes, you are! Tell us, Sabo!

We can't have secrets among us!

--Tell us!\N--Tell us!

I said that I'm not hiding...

Tell us, you bastard! Or I'll beat you up!

Alright, I'll tell you!

The son of a noble?!

--Who is it?\N--Who is it?

I am!

--And?\N--And?

You two asked me first!

The truth is, both of my parents are alive.

So I'm not an orphan and I didn't \Ngrow up in the Gray Terminal.

The man who called to me today was...

...my father.

I was lying to you guys. I'm sorry.

He said "sorry" so we gotta forgive him.

Let's hold off on forgiveness - \Nit all depends on your motive.

Why were you living there if \Nyou are from a noble family?

The reason I ran away was...

Listen, Sabo.

You must acquire intelligence and \Nknowledge that you'll need as a noble

and become a man that can marry \Na woman from the royal family.

Then, we will live in security and \NI'm sure that you will live happily!

Are you sure that if I could marry \Na royal woman, I'll live happily?

I'm sure!

Yes, Sabo!

Okay!

I'll do it!

What?!

The cargo ship has sunk?!

I don't give a damn about the crew!

What are you gonna do about the \Ncargo that I paid for? Huh?

Hello?! Hello?!

--Clank. \N--Damn!

Such a great loss! By thunder!

Dad!

DAD

Look at this! I drew it!

I'm exhausted from work, Sabo.

If you have time to draw this, \Nyou ought to be studying instead.

Hey, you!

I'm from the royal family! \NWhich means I'm related to the king!

Carry me by piggyback to my house!

Stop, you rude jerk!

Hey, are you gonna ignore my royal order?!

Let me go!

You're just the son of some noble family!

I'll teach you a lesson!

Don't!

It's unforgivable to harm a \Nchild of the royal family!

Sabo! Did you really have a fight \Nwith this royal boy?!

Yes, I did!

Because he attacked me with \Na knife all of a sudden...

I'm sorry! Did you get hurt?!

I'm so sorry!

Let's take him to a doctor \Nto get checked out!

Can we please settle this matter peacefully?!

They love those who can maintain their \Nstatus and defend their property.

Not me!

If I can't marry a woman from \Nthe royal family, I'm worthless!

That's why they made me study \Nand take culture lessons.

And they were arguing everyday \Nbecause I wasn't doing well.

I had no place to be in that family!

I'm sorry for both of you but I was \Nall by myself even if I had parents!

I heard that you sneak out \Nand go somewhere sometimes.

I don't think you do but do you \Never go to the Gray Terminal!

We nobles are privileged to live

in the High Town with \Nthe king and his family.

Those residents there and we nobles \Nare living in different worlds!

It's you again.

If you walk around a place like this,

you might get robbed and killed someday!

Let me hear the stories again!

About countries across the sea

that you guys have seen or visited!

--You're a strange kid!\N--Come and sit down.

Uh-huh!

Nobles have a low opinion \Nof the Gray Terminal

but it's better than the stifling High Town

where your life has been \Narranged for years to come!

I see.

Ace! Luffy!

We gotta set out to sea someday!

Let's get out of this \Ncountry and live freely!

I wanna see the world out there \Nand write a book about it!

I'm happy to study if it's about sailing!

Let's become stronger and \Nbecome pirates someday!

I'm gonna become one - you \Ndon't have to tell me to!

I'm gonna become a pirate and \Ndefeat others and become infamous!

It'll be the only proof of my life!

It doesn't matter if all the people \Nin the world reject me or despise me,

I'll become a great pirate \Nand show them what I can do!

I won't run from anybody or lose to anyone!

Because I'm feared or hated or whatever,

my name will be known all over!

I got it! Alright then...!

I'm gonna become...!

You fool... I was wondering \Nwhat you'd have to say...

You're funny, Luffy!

I can't wait to see how you \Nturn out in the future!

We can all become pirates

but isn't it a problem that \Nwe all wanna become captain?

I wasn't expecting that.

Sabo, I thought that you'd wanna \Nbe navigator on my ship.

You guys can come aboard my ship!

--No thanks!\N--No thanks!

Huh?! Come on!

Come aboard! I said "come \Naboard", so you gotta do it!

--That will never happen!\N--Yeah, never!

What did you say?!

But that's okay.

What's that?!

Man, you're funny, Luffy!

Well, let's just leave \Nit until the time comes.

Maybe we'll set out independently.

Oh, you stole that from Dadan!

Did you guys know?!

We can become brothers if we \Nexchange this cup of sake!

Brothers? Really?!

When we become pirates, we \Nmight not be on the same ship

but our brotherhood will always be with us!

Wherever, whatever, we'll \Nalways be bonded together!

So from now on,

we're brothers!

Yeah!!

Dreaming of the day when they'll \Ntake to the seas as pirates,

Luffy and his friends polish \Nup their bad-boy skills.

Then, when an attack by a certain character \Nthreatens their peaceful lives,

the three boys are forced to say \Ngoodbye to the Dadan family.

On the next episode of One Piece!

"Leaving the Dadan Family for Good?! \NThe Kids' Hideout Has Been Built!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
