[NARRATOR] This is the time known as the Great Pirate Era.

A countless array of pirates go to battle across the seas

in search of the One Piece,

the legendary treasure left behind by Gold Roger,

King of the Pirates.

Monkey D. Luffy, a boy whose body turned to rubber

after eating the Gum-Gum Fruit,

sets sail to become the next King of the Pirates.

As Luffy and his crew conquer numerous obstacles,

they capture the unwanted attention

of the World Government,

which will use any means necessary to stop them.

[LUFFY] Now this is exciting!

I can't wait to see what kind of adventure's up next!

[NARRATOR] With a charted course awash in danger and intrigue,

the crew will cut a path across the Grand Line to the New World!

[NARRATOR] After losing his brother, Ace,

in the War of the Best against the Navy,

Luffy sent a message to his crew

in a way that only they would grasp.

I hope they get the message... wherever they are.

If anyone can understand you, it's them.

They'll understand if they see the article.

They are your crew after all.

[CHOPPER] I got it, Luffy! Don't worry!

[CHOPPER] A change of plans, then!

Yeah, okay, okay!

So, that's it. Very well, then.

[ROBIN] Interesting as always, Luffy.

Roger that, Captain!

[USOPP] I've got it!

Yes, Luffy! Yes!

[NAMI] But honestly, Luffy!

How about how I feel, huh? You're so selfish!

I gotcha, Boss.

Hah. How very clever of you!

Normally, Luffy wouldn't do something like this.

Rayleigh's with him, so it must be some idea he cooked up.

There's gotta be a catch here.

[ZORO grunting]

[LUFFY] "Pirates Get on the Move! Astounding New World!"

[NARRATOR] Now that Whitebeard's era has ended,

ambitious pirates all over the world

are starting to make their move.

[NARRATOR] Trafalgar Law, however,

has something else in mind.

[PENGUIN] What? You don't want to leave yet?

[SHACHI] Come on, let's go to the New World!

[PENGUIN] We've been sitting around here long enough already!

[SHACHI] Yeah, what are we waiting for?

Like I said, we're gonna leave when it's time.

Have some patience.

One Piece isn't going anywhere.

For now, we just bide our time.

But Captain!

Blackbeard's already starting to make his move in the New World!

And in a big way, too!

I heard he's already taken down at least one crew of pirates!

[HEART PIRATE A] Yeah, and a bunch of rookies

are heading over there hoping to take Whitebeard's place

as an Emperor!

[HEART PIRATE B] If we keep wasting time,

all the other pirates'll leave us in the dust for sure!

We're better off letting them eliminate

each other before we get there.

That'll thin out the competition, right?

Now why don't you dispense with the whining

and do as I tell you for once?

We will get what we want, whatever it takes.

[HEART PIRATES cheer]

Well, in that case, we're with you all the way!

Aye-aye, Captain Law, aye-aye!

I got your back wherever we go.

[PENGUIN, SHACHI] Are you sleeping?!

[BEPO] I'm sorry.

[PENGUIN, SHACHI] Don't apologize, just wake up!

[DRAKE PIRATE C] I'm gonna freeze to death.

Are you sure this is the place?

[DRAKE PIRATE D] There can't be anyone else out here.

[DRAKE grunts]

[DRAKE PIRATE C] What's that?

[DRAKE PIRATE D] There's something falling from the sky!

Hurry, get back!

[DRAKE PIRATES yelling]

[DRAKE groans]

[DRAKE PIRATES groan]

[DRAKE PIRATE E] Everybody all right?

[DRAKE PIRATE F] Yeah. I'm fine.

[DRAKE PIRATE H] Damn. What the hell is wrong with this island?

[DRAKE PIRATE B] Captain, I think we should get out of here.

There's no way anybody lives in a dangerous place like this!

[DRAKE] Are you sure about that?

In this sea, anything is possible.

Take a look.

[DRAKE PIRATE I] That pile of snow has a weird shape.

[DRAKE PIRATE J] Yeah, and those icicles are stuck in it.

[DRAKE PIRATE K] Wait a sec, it's some kinda metal dome!

What the...?

And now it's opening up?

[DRAKE PIRATE L] Okay, you got me.

I wasn't expecting a whole town to be in there.

[DRAKE PIRATES gasp]

[SCOTCH] If you made it this far,

you should know this island is very important to Kaido.

And I'm in charge of security around here.

Yeah?

And what's your point?

Nothing really,

I just figured it was only fair to give you a warning.

There's gonna be serious trouble

if a rookie like you pisses Kaido off.

[DRAKE] You mean, if I were to kill you

or harm you in some way, that would get his attention?

You bet it would, pal.

So just take your little friends--

[DRAKE] That makes things easy for me then!

Whoa.

An ancient Zoan type, huh?

Don't see that every day!

[roars]

--[gunshots] --[roaring]

[APOO] One, two, Scratch and Boom!

[APOO] That's how ya do it!

Holy crap, that took a lot out of me.

That's Captain Apoo for ya!

Oh, yeah, he's got our backs!

[BOAR A growls]

[ON-AIR PIRATES] Huh?

[BOARS growling]

[ON-AIR PIRATES gasp]

Uh-oh, there's too many!

[ON-AIR PIRATE A] This is bad news!

[APOO] Okay, not great.

No worries, everybody!

Just let Captain Apoo kick their butts for us real quick!

All right, boys, I've got a plan!

[ON-AIR PIRATES] Yeah?

Run for your lives!

[ON-AIR PIRATES] What?!

[BOARS growling]

I coulda beat 'em,

I just thought I'd take the high road this time!

--[BOARS growling] --[ON-AIR PIRATES whimpering]

[ON-AIR PIRATE B] Captain!

We're headed straight for a cliff!

[APOO] Open to suggestions if you've got any!

[BOARS growling]

[ON-AIR PIRATE B] Oh, crap, that means I'm a goner for sure!

[APOO] Don't give up yet!

[ON-AIR PIRATE C] Oh, no! We're gonna fall into the water!

[APOO] Who cares, just go for it!

[ON-AIR PIRATES] What?

[APOO] Huh?

[ON-AIR PIRATE B] Hey, that's pretty funny!

We're the On-Air Pirates and we're running on air!

[ON-AIR PIRATE A] The boars are running on air, too!

[APOO] Yeah, yeah, I get it!

What the hell is up with this crazy island anyway?

Too hot.

I'm beat, you guys, I can't move.

One more step and my legs'll fall right off.

Uh-oh, a fish just bit me down there.

Stifle your bellyachin' over there, Wolf!

It's because of you the raft almost broke clean in two!

That's the reason we're here, y'know!

[SHIRYU] You can blame it on the giant if you like,

but trying to make it through the New World on that

flimsy thing was a fool's errand in the first place.

Guess we shoulda nabbed ourselves a Navy vessel

back at Marineford when we had the chance.

It wasn't our fault, that raft had sentimental value!

None of you lot ever prepare for anything.

You're all to blame for this.

Hey, I got an idea, Teach!

Maybe you oughta let me be the Captain from here on meowt?

[chuckles] Oh, don't make me kill you.

We're the Blackbeard Pirates, remember?

Heaven only knows what's going to become

of our miserable souls after this.

[laughs] I need some more booze.

Can we find an island with more liquor and less fire?

[laughs]

No kidding. A new ship's nice, but I need a new outfit first.

These jailbird clothes are just awful.

You'll have to endure it for now.

Thick horizontal stripes make me look heavy, you know.

Dah, do they? Maybe I'm still too sober to notice.

You spy any Navy ships out there?

I'll go and take a look.

Surely they know better than to make us wait.

Let's hope so!

'Cause this old crew's gettin' tired of roasting alive!

[BONNEY groans]

[BLACKBEARD] Ain't that right, Miss Jewelry Bonney?

Poor Captain Bonney.

[panting]

And to think that a sweet little thing like you's

racked up a bounty of over 100,000,000 berries!

Only the strongest can hope to sail the seas of the New World.

Ya might've come all the way from the South Blue,

but I'm afraid your voyage stops here.

[BLACKBEARD cackles]

[BLACKBEARD PIRATES laughing]

I'm afraid you're not tough enough

to cut it as a member of my crew,

but, hey, I might be willing to let you tag along

if you promise to be my girl.

[BONNEY grunts]

That sound like a deal to you? Huh?

No way, fatass!

--[BLACKBEARD groans] --[BONNEY] I'll kill you!

[BLACKBEARD PIRATES laughing]

That sounds like a no.

What? I asked you nicely!

Women oughta have more decency!

This lousy crew's indecent enough to begin with!

That's nice of you to say, Captain!

[GROUP laughing]

Might as well leave the broad with the Navy like we planned!

I was gonna keep her and steal the ship, but screw that.

--[VAN AUGER] Captain. --Huh?

[VAN AUGER] The Navy is on their way.

About damn time! And do they have our ship with 'em?

[VAN AUGER] They brought one, but they're not giving it to us.

[BLACKBEARD] What? How do you know that?

[VAN AUGER] Because Akainu's on it.

[BLACKBEARD] Damn it! That's not what I need to hear right now.

--[BLACKBEARD PIRATES shouting] --[BLACKBEARD] Let's get movin'!

[BURGESS] We screwed up!

[AKAINU] Where's Blackbeard?

[MARINE A] He's gone, sir!

[AKAINU] When I found out you had escaped from the Government,

it nearly froze my blood.

[BONNEY grunts]

Oh, well. I suppose it's all over now.

[gasps] You bastards!

I'm gonna make you pay, do you hear me?

Disappeared?

Yeah, that's the best way I can describe it.

So, Sengoku put you up to this?

I'll tear him apart!

Nah, think higher up the ladder.

[MORIA groans]

That ain't a figure of speech either.

One minute he's there and then poof, gone! [chuckles]

Not bad, huh? What can I say?

That Shadow Shadow Fruit is tricky!

[NOBLE A] It's not a joke!

Relax, buddy.

He was beat up pretty bad anyway.

So, I guarantee you he's dead by now.

Well, he's got that zombie thing going on,

so he might come back from the dead. [chuckles]

Now that would be ironic.

You shouldn't have done such a sloppy job.

--[NOBLE A gasps] --And you shouldn't

be getting cocky, my friend,

because the last time I checked, you're not my boss.

No matter what kind of authority you might have

as part of the World Government, I'm still a pirate,

so I don't care.

[NOBLE A grunts]

And if I ever get tired of doing business

with the likes of you clowns,

I can just give up my title as a Warlord.

Don't you forget that.

[DOFLAMINGO laughs]

[NARRATOR] Meanwhile, in Birdie Kingdom...

[NARRATOR] ...the birds and the natives have

bid their friend, Chopper, farewell.

[NATIVE G sighs] Me miss Raccoon already.

[chirps]

[BIRDS squawking]

Sound like birds sad without Raccoon, too.

We hoping for Raccoon friend coming back to visit one day.

Real soon!

[BIRDS squawk]

Okay, now everybody need to finishing today work.

[BIRD D squawks]

[chirping]

[BIRDS squawking]

[NATIVE L] Hmm? What that?

Bird come back!

[NATIVE H] Wonder what happen?

[NATIVE I] Yeah, too early return!

[NATIVE H] Huh?

But where Raccoon friend go?

[NATIVE I] Lost on trip?

Maybe too much windy, poor Raccoon fall in ocean!

Big danger! We're going and rescue little friend!

[ALL gasp]

[NATIVE I] What? Who that up there?

[CHOPPER] I'm glad you asked!

Sworn to protect all creatures of this world from evil.

I am the hero of peace and justice,

Chopper Mask has arrived!

Uh, hey, Raccoon, we know we saying come back soon,

but maybe today too much early.

No! You guys've got the wrong idea!

Chopper's a good friend of mine

and maybe we look alike, but my name's Chopper Mask!

[NATIVE H] You not fooling us.

You cover face so not look like big wimp for come back early.

[CHOPPER] I already told you guys, I'm not him!

[CHOPPER yells, groans]

[NATIVES gasp]

Raccoon fall down go ouch?

[CHOPPER] I'm not a raccoon. I'm Chopper Mask, dammit!

Listen, we be nice to Raccoon and play his pretending game.

If he want be Chopper Mask so bad, then that okay.

We sorry we not understand first time.

Yeah, we had some confuse.

Now we know you Chopper Mask with wearing cool costume.

You not looking like Raccoon friend at all.

It nice to meeting you, Chopper Mask.

Oh, just forget it, I don't need your stupid pity!

Hey! Raccoon back!

[chirping]

[CHOPPER gasps]

[chirping]

[chuckles]

You silly birdie! That tickles!

[NATIVES laugh]

[CHOPPER] The truth is,

there's something I need to take care of.

Can I stay here a bit longer?

[NATIVE L] You welcome always. Reason not matter!

[CHOPPER] There's so many different plants

growing on that tree.

Half of them I've never even seen in books before!

I'd like to study them a little.

[NATIVE L] We have good place for study.

I need to get stronger, too, while I'm at it...

A lot stronger.

[NATIVE E] Hello, Raccoon friend!

[NATIVE F] You already come back so soon?

[NATIVE J] We happy!

[CHOPPER] Yeah.

Turns out I'm gonna be staying on the island

with you guys for a while!

Here. Should help for learning.

[CHOPPER gasps] Hey, where are we?

[NATIVE L] Me show you.

[CHOPPER gasps]

[NATIVE L] Village library.

You maybe can study in here.

[CHOPPER] So many books!

[CHOPPER giggles]

[CHOPPER] Whoa, the walls are covered in 'em!

Hey! You've got books on all the plants I wanted to learn about.

This is exactly what I needed!

[CHOPPER] Just look at all these.

[NATIVE L] Island have many useful plant for make medicine.

We know how to make before, but birds got in way.

Even though we have knowledge, we stuck long time without

ingredients and family got bad sick.

Wow, this is crazy.

I shouldn't have judged them by their looks.

I guess their weapons are pretty high-tech

now that I think about it.

I mean sure, they talk dumb and look dumb.

--[NATIVE L gasps] --But they're pretty smart

and their medical science is the best I've ever seen!

I've got a lot to learn!

Stop, Raccoon!

Maybe you thinking you talking quietly

so nobody hear you, but you very loud!

And you not say a very nice thing.

Makes me wonder...

How much can I accomplish on this island?

[VILLAGER C] Hey, what is that creature over there?

[VILLAGER D] It looks like a yeti!

[VILLAGER E] It's dangerous. Get the children inside quickly!

[VILLAGER C] A gun! Bring me a gun!

--[VILLAGER D] Yeah, shoot him! --[VILLAGER F] It's a monster!

[VILLAGER F] See? I told you he was real.

[VILLAGER D] Kill it!

--[VILLAGERS shouting] --[CHOPPER crying]

[gunshots]

--[gunshot] --[CHOPPER gasps]

A skull?

[HIRILUK] This symbolizes my belief

that nothing is impossible!

By raising this flag,

I vow to fight just like the pirates do!

It's great to be a pirate!

The most amazing people sail the seas.

Chopper, someday you've got to go to sea!

If you do, you'll realize just how small your problems

really are in comparison to the vastness of the oceans.

The island you were born on is like this compared to the world!

[CHOPPER] Really?

[HIRILUK] No, it's smaller! Like this.

[HIRILUK, CHOPPER laugh]

[HIRILUK] Your destiny lies beyond that shining sea!

Hey! You're gonna to come on our ship

and be a pirate with us, 'kay?

[CHOPPER] Listen, maybe I do want to be a pirate.

[CHOPPER] But I can't ever be one of you!

I'm not a human! I'm a monster!

I can't be your friend, and I can't join your crew!

So... I just wanted to say...

...I really appreciate the offer.

It was nice of you,

so thank you.

I'm just gonna stay here but...

[CHOPPER] But if you wanted to you could stop by here again--

[LUFFY] Shut up! Let's go!

[CHOPPER crying]

[CHOPPER] Luffy's the one who took me out to sea.

I was happy to follow him anywhere.

[CHOPPER] But what have I done to help him?

[CHOPPER] I don't want to go through that again, ever.

It hurt, but I think maybe...

[CHOPPER gasping]

[BROOK screams]

[inaudible]

[SANJI groans]

[inaudible]

[USOPP screams]

[inaudible]

[ZORO groans]

[inaudible]

[CHOPPER] I think it must've hurt Luffy more than any of us!

[CHOPPER] Now that I have friends like him,

it doesn't matter what people say!

It doesn't matter if they're scared of me!

So, if Luffy's in trouble or he's sad...

...I'll be a monster or whatever else it takes to help him!

[LUFFY] Chopper!

Chopper.

Chopper!

[crying]

Luffy!

I swear, I'm gonna get stronger!

I'm gonna be there for you this time!

[NARRATOR] As Luffy's message reaches Weatheria and Baldimore,

Nami and Franky decide to plot

a new course of action for themselves.

Meanwhile, Sanji discovers that the Kamabakka Kingdom

may have something valuable to offer him,

as long as he's willing to fight for it.

[LUFFY] On the next One Piece!

"Living Through Hell! Sanji's Fight for His Manhood!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!
