Travel across the oceans of the world

Bellow a battle cry

Once your heart feels refreshed, let the signal to set sail ring out

We've left the established course

Right now, we're rowing straight toward

The borderline between the sky and the ocean

In the dark depths of the ocean, adventure holds its breath

Don't you have a good time just imagining it?

Travel across the oceans of the world

Bellow a battle cry

Once your heart feels refreshed, let the signal to set sail ring out

"That feeling" I get when embarking

Is something I hope to remember always

If I can, I won't be afraid of anything

With our pulses racing, let's go on a trip now

Shy hearts engrave the rhythm of adventure

Snatch up the treasure here and there

While laughing out loud

As we dash by like a noisy party

Make some waves...

Life is "Adventurous"

Be aware it's "Dangerous"

Who's gonna be "One of us"

And a trip goes on because

We da pirate of the "Mass"

To the West, To the East

Gotta find my way, Sail away

All the way to "One piece"!!

Stuff a dream into your empty chest

And spread your wings

If the wind blowing through them dyes your heart

Let's press forward

Snatch up the treasure here and there

While laughing out loud

As we dash by like a noisy party

Make some waves...

Wealth, fame, power...

Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates,

once attained everything this world has to offer.

The words he uttered just before his death

drove people around the world to the seas.

My treasure? If you want it, you can have it!

Find it! I left everything this world has to offer there!

And so men rushed onto the Grand Line in pursuit of romanticism!

The world has truly entered a Great Pirate Era!

You are going to disgrace yourself by crying,

"Anything but my afro! Anything but my afro!"

as you beg me to spare your life, just like last time.

No, that's not how it will go down!

While waiting for my chance to return,

I have spent these past five years...

...growing stronger!

"A Man's Promise Never Dies!! To the Friend Waiting Under the Distant Sky!"

"Evil..."

A monster that could tower over giants?

Yeah! He's the one who made all that noise and screamed.

I bet Luffy's zombie is hooting and hollering as he runs rampant.

Let's hurry!

Hey, look! There's Sunny!

Yeah! That skeleton knew what he was talkin' about!

Indeed!

Whoosh!

I get it! Those stairs led to the entrance.

I couldn't tell through all that fog when we barged in,

but the stairway up was a shortcut to the last boss's room...

Folding stairs...? Is this how we're supposed to get down?

Whoa! Man, we've been wiped clean!

The zombies must have done it.

There are muddy footprints everywhere.

What?! They could still be around.

What a mess!

Yeah, they looted us, all right. Not that we have anything worth taking.

Are there any zombies...?

How about the guys in question?

I don't see them.

Hey, Luffy! Zoro! Sanji!

Where are you?! Say something!

They must be inside.

What makes you so sure?

We heard that their zombies will also die

if Luffy and the guys are exposed to sunlight.

Gotcha. Chopper and Franky, you two search the first floor.

Robin and I will search the second floor.

Zombies could still be hiding somewhere on board, so be careful!

Right!

Found them! Hey, I found them!

They're in the dining room! All three of them are up here!

Luffy!

How... could they do such a thing...?

The zombies had a blast "decorating" them...

They were merciless.

Wake up, Luffy! Man, you can't sleep looking like this!

Luffy!

C'mon!

Leave this to me.

Hey, wake up! This isn't the time to catch some Z's!

We've got a serious problem here!

They're still asleep...

Do they even have a nervous system?

They're askin' for it.

Guys, outta the way. I'm using my bazooka.

Nah, it's cool.

At times like this...

There's a hot master swordswoman with meat!

--"Hot"? --"Meat"?

--"Master swordswoman"?! --These guys are hopeless!

Did you hear that?

Yeah! Didn't he say 95-55-85?

These are truly...

...miraculous measurements!

This is the one.

Yes, yes. You'll look lovely in this.

Now let's get you changed right quick.

Oh, yeah!

Ow!

What are you doing, geezer?!

Now, now! I'm doing it for your own good.

If you leered at the naked flesh of the woman about to wed Absalom-sama,

he would make you pay dearly!

Isn't that right, Absalom-sama?

D-Don't tell me...

He was... still...

...in here?!

We're in rottin' trouble!

Damn it! He noticed I was still there.

Hey! Have the General Zombies congregate in the ceremony hall! Hop to it!

C-Certainly!

Y-You jerk!

--Give my shadow-- --Calm down! Moria isn't here.

Huh? Where am I?

On Sunny.

Sunny?! What are we doing back here?

Wait... None of that was a dream...!

My shadow is missing! This feels so weird.

Hey, this is bad! We have a disaster on hand! We're all out of food!

Crap!

We had our galley packed nicely, but now it's empty.

They took off with everything but some emergency rations.

I can't live off cheese and dried bread! Gimme meat!

But...

This is really humiliating. I wasn't taking things seriously enough!

I lost my pirate lunch...

Cheese doesn't cut it! Cheese bites!

By the way, I don't see Nami-san.

Oh, about that...

Yeah...

You let her get abducted?!

Why didn't you follow her to the ends of the earth?!

Sorry! But it's not like I could just run after them!

Who the heck is the jerk?! I'll get her back before you can bat an eye!

Whoa, wait! Please hear me out first!

Okay, I'll make this quick.

Generally speaking, there are two things we need to get back!

Our food, Nami, and our shadows, right? That's three things!

Wow, I wasn't expecting you to rank things in that order.

First off, let me fill you in about Nami and your shadows.

Wha--? M-M-Marriage?!

Don't be stupid! I won't let that happen!

He's got guts to marry Nami...

And there is a giant version of me?

That's how you make a zombie?

So you've already found Luffy's and the cook's zombies, Usopp?

I-I had no idea he was one of the Seven Warlords...

Fear suddenly set in...

You guys didn't know?

How were we supposed to know?!

Oh, man! I don't have time for this.

That's right! If the zombies act just like us,

then I saw your zombie, Zoro.

What was he like?

No different from you.

Scars on the back are a swordsman's shame!

But I am covered in scars.

I knew he wasn't you, since he was wearing sandals.

Okay, whatever.

So we need to find a zombie in sandals, Luffy's giant, and the cook's dogguin.

Our shadows will come back if we throw salt in their mouths, right?

Yeah, that's how it works.

But honestly, I'm amazed you discovered that weakness.

All of our info came from that bag of bones,

from how to defeat the zombies to how to rescue you guys.

Really?! You saw Brook?

Yeah, I did. And I asked him a stupid question when I saw him.

See, I totally rejected his very existence when you first brought him

aboard our ship to join our crew...

He might be a flimsy skeleton,

but when I talked to him, he had an iron backbone!

One fitting for a skeleton...

He...

He...

He's a real man!

I had to ask him...

Well, you'll have to pardon me.

I'm in a hurry. Take care!

Stop right there!

On top of everything you've told us, answer this one question before you go.

You know how people will react

if you appear before them as you are now, don't you?

You're a talking skeleton! You'll never make friends.

The abnormal are ostracized.

Franky, what are you...?

Even if you leave the Devil's Sea, your fate is sealed...

And to make matters worse, you've spent the past several decades trapped here!

Didn't you say, "I got so lonely that I wanted to die"?

If I were you, I would have taken my own life ages ago.

Your existence bites...

Sometimes you act like a gentleman to hide the core of the conversation.

You're doing all of this because you want to keep a promise...

What exactly did you promise your crewmates?

You're rather nosy, aren't you?

It's quite simple.

Long ago, we left a member of my crew behind at a certain location.

It was unavoidable, yet sad.

When we set sail, we vehemently swore that we would return.

But then we were annihilated on these seas,

preventing us from keeping our promise.

As the sole survivor from our ship, it is my duty to tell him what has happened!

I believe it has been... fifty years now since the day we died.

Fifty years?! Hey, that was ages ago!

I wasn't even born yet!

Sorry, but I doubt he's been waiting that long!

What right...?!

What right do I have to decide whether or not he's still waiting?

If he's still waiting for us, believing that we'll keep our promise...

Can you imagine how lonesome he must feel?

If he's still waiting while under the belief that we've betrayed him,

can you imagine how miserable he must be?

Man...

We swore to reunite with my crewmate off some capes. His name is...

...Laboon!

He was a young whale,

so we couldn't possibly bring him with us on our dangerous voyage.

A whale...?

Yeah...

Goodbye!

Later! Take care!

I imagine he's grown rather big by now.

Your crewmate... is a whale?

That's right. I can't help but think he still believes in us.

Perhaps he thinks we'll play our typical lively music

and come back waving.

I doubt he will forgive us for irresponsibly dying on him...

We made a selfish promise

and died under a distant sky where our voices couldn't reach him.

"I'm sorry we died" could never cut it!

We gave our word as men that we would return!

And that's why he's still alive...

Laboon...

Seriously?

It's him...

Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Chopper wasn't there for this, huh?

You...! What the hell did you do to my special seat?!

I'm strong, aren't I?

Our fight isn't over yet! So we have to fight again.

Your buddies're dead, but I'm your rival forever.

We definitely have to fight again in order to decide who is stronger.

After going around the Grand Line, we'll come back to see you again.

When I come back, let's fight again!

Hmmm. This is good.

This is the symbol of our promise to fight again.

Until we come back, don't remove that mark by hitting your head.

We know him.

We know that whale.

That cape on the Grand Line...?

Whoa, wait! He's still waiting after fifty years?!

What a touching story!

I didn't expect that skeleton to have a past like that...

On the next episode of One Piece!

"I Swear to Go See Him!! Brook and the Cape of Promise!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
