[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,

Luffy fell into despair,

but when he was reminded of his crew, he decided

to send them a message that reached across the seas.

[LUFFY] "Living through Hell! Sanji's Fight for His Manhood!"

[NARRATOR] On the small Sky Island of Weatheria.

[OLD MEN] There she is!

[OLD MAN A] We finally found her!

You've fooled us for the last time!

It was bad enough that you stole

our research notes and tried to run away!

But you toyed with our feelings as well!

Our hearts, forever tainted!

You'll pay dearly for your treachery!

[OLD MEN] You thieving harpy!

--Okay. --[HAREDAS] Huh?

[OLD MAN A] There's our research notes!

[OLD MAN E] And the Weather Ball!

[OLD MAN C] And the hostage, Mr. Haredas!

Even if you return everything, it's too late for forgiveness!

I'm so sorry. I regret what I've done.

Nobody listen. We can't trust her!

I won't be happy until I've punished her

with my own two hands!

Punish me? How naughty!

[OLD MEN] Huh? Naughty?!

[NAMI] How could you?

Hey, stop that!

You know I didn't mean it in the naughty kinda way!

I mean we need to, um, to discipline you?

[OLD MAN B] Stop talking to her!

She'll keep making us sound bad!

--[OLD MEN gasp] --[NAMI] Tch!

Did you just try to "tch" us?

You big bully!

How cruel of you to pick on me!

[OLD MAN B] Lighten up on the poor girl!

Did you all forget already?

The stuff she stole and misery she's caused?

[OLD MAN E] Oh, well.

[OLD MAN C] Quit falling for her trap!

[NAMI] There must be a mistake!

I wouldn't do such things!

Uh, on second thought... You seem like a nice young lady.

Those fools don't know what to think anymore, do they?

[OLD MEN yell]

Let's run her off the island! Once and for all!

[NAMI] Not that!

I'm sorry! I'll never do it again!

[OLD MAN B] How can you expect us to trust you?

[NAMI] It's all right, I get it.

You want me to show you how sorry I am.

[NAMI] To win back your trust, I'll jump off this island.

--[OLD MEN gasp] --[NAMI] My sacrifice will

pay for my offenses!

[OLD MEN gasp]

[NAMI] Goodbye, cruel world!

Idiots, what have we done?

Don't be hasty, my dear!

Why don't we sit down over a cup of tea

before you do something so drastic?

[NAMI] Farewell!

[OLD MEN] Forgive us!

Okay then, as long as you're sorry!

[OLD MEN gasping, yelling]

Now that that's settled,

I'm gonna stay here a bit longer to learn more about the weather!

Also, my name is Nami, so stop calling me "young lady" please.

First off, I'd like a house of my own to live in.

Everybody needs a little privacy, am I right?

I'll need a bed, too, and feather pillows

and nice big bathtub. No, wait--a jacuzzi!

Thanks, you guys! Sky grandpas are the best!

Time to rock and roll!

Whoo!

[OLD MAN C] S.O.S, Haredas! S.O.S!

[HAREDAS] Good grief.

[NAMI panting]

[HAREDAS] I don't understand.

You were desperate to get off this island before.

Well, I suppose that's your business.

Could you refresh my memory?

How does this place work?

Oh, of course.

Weatheria travels on the wind,

traversing the entire world, though a bit slowly.

Now and then we'll send a few of our scientists

down beneath the clouds

to pick up supplies and gather information.

[NAMI] Information?

Yes, to check our records against others'.

Despite all of our research,

there are many mysterious weather conditions in the world

that we've only been able to scratch the surface of and--

[NAMI] What?

Pay attention!

Oh, wow. This is crazy!

Lightning rain?

Indeed, but only on one island.

Quite strange.

It's a terrifying, but intriguing sight.

That island is located in the New World.

But of course, if you brave those seas,

then you've got to expect the unexpected,

no matter how outlandish it may be.

[chuckles]

It's a big world out there!

Haredas.

Please take me as your student.

Teach me all you know about the weather.

Especially in the New World!

Such a desperate plea!

Of course it is!

The lives of my crewmembers are at stake here, y'know!

I'm their only navigator!

And when I'm on that ship, then I take full responsibility!

It's my job to find our way,

and I will not let my captain down, no matter what it takes!

That's because Luffy

wants to become the King of the Pirates.

To help him, I need to be the best navigator

the world has ever seen!

Sounds like your captain is very lucky.

He has such a thoughtful and clever crewmate.

[NAMI sighs]

Yeah, I have to be.

What does that mean?

Well, he is determined, and he's reliable as a captain,

but he doesn't know anything about the sea.

[NAMI crying]

He's so ridiculous.

Without my help, he would be lost.

[NAMI] Luffy.

Please help me.

He's gonna pay!

I owe him, but he's such a pain.

Huh?

I mean, he's real high maintenance!

[HAREDAS chuckles]

Good! Then you two balance each other out!

And I wanna give him all the help he needs.

[NAMI] Just like he helped me.

[NAMI] Anyway, can you tell me about the Weather Ball?

Well, it's complicated.

One of Weatheria's masterpieces, but quite delicate!

You must be careful.

Misuse it and the whole world could go topsy-turvy!

[NAMI] Can it be used as a weapon, then?

[HAREDAS] Hey, why are you even asking that?

[NAMI] Hmm.

[HAREDAS] Quit smiling!

[laughs]

[LUFFY] Nami!

Nami, you'll always be my friend!

[NARRATOR] Meanwhile, on the Mechanical Island...

...in the Future Land, Baldimore.

[MARINE A] Nothing new on the surprise bombing

at Dr. Vegapunk's lab.

[MARINE A] We still haven't found the culprit.

[FRANKY] Hey, hurry up!

[ALL screaming]

[MARINE A] It was, without exaggeration,

the greatest loss of our time!

Have you heard anything at all?

Well, rumor has it that one of the intruders

looks a lot like a gorilla if you can believe that.

Sorry, that's pretty hard to believe!

I don't think he made it all the way to the harbor.

You can't reach that end of the island unless

you've got something that can break through all of this ice.

Only our ships have that kind of equipment.

People are claiming the intruder was

none other than Cyborg Franky of the Straw Hat Pirates.

But the only place he's been spotted the past month

is the Sabaody Archipelago.

And there's no way he could've made it to Baldimore

from all the way over there.

[MARINE B] Captain Gorilla!

The search team is about to head to the mountains!

Tell them to wait! I'll be there shortly!

[KITTON] What's this?

[FRANKY] The explosion must've uncovered a hidden entrance.

[KITTON'S GRANDFATHER] Now, that's a surprise!

I've never heard of such a thing!

[KITTON gasps]

I can hardly believe it.

Dr. Vegapunk had another laboratory,

right under our noses!

[barking]

[FRANKY] This must be where he made all the cyborg animals

that worked on his projects.

[KITTON gasps, yells]

[FRANKY] Don't break anything!

You are the last person I wanna hear that from!

I admit, I did blow away some valuable stuff,

but it was mostly knick-knacks and gadgets--

things to improve your quality of life.

That's nice, but it's not what I need.

I'm more interested in the weapons he designed.

The ones he's got right here.

[FRANKY] This is insane!

There's everything from battleships to bio-creatures.

And this is the place where he cooked it up, day after day!

[FRANKY] All right! It's settled!

I'm gonna live here!

--[KITTON] Huh? Here? --[KITTON'S GRANDFATHER] Huh?

Yeah!

[ALL scream]

Thing is, I'm still gonna need cola and stuff,

so I hope you guys don't mind

if I come by to visit you sometimes.

[GROUP scream]

It's not that bad!

As long as you keep this a secret

I won't cause trouble and trouble won't find me.

--So do we have a deal? --[GROUP screaming]

What is wrong with you three? It's just my face!

[KITTON] Your face is a nightmare!

[KITTON'S GRANDFATHER] Don't look at us!

There!

Is this better?

[GROUP screaming, gasps]

[GROUP] That's not so bad.

[FRANKY] F-F-Franky!

[GROUP screaming]

'Scuse me. It's cold in here.

[KITTON'S GRANDFATHER] Then put on some pants!

Perfect. Now it's nice and warm!

You're still not wearin' any pants.

This doesn't make sense.

Didn't you say that you wanted to get off this island?

[FRANKY] Maybe before, but...

[FRANKY] My dream...

It would be my honor, if you'd take my ship

and sail across the world!

Luffy...

[FRANKY] ...because of you,

I was able to hold onto my dream.

[LUFFY] Franky!

Thanks, the ship is great!

Just like you said, it's the best!

We'll take good care of it!

Oh, I hate to break it to you,

but if you want your undies back,

then you're gonna have to join our crew!

[FRANKY] To think I almost turned ya down.

I might've spent the rest of my life without seeing the world.

[FRANKY] Who knows how many seas we'll cross,

and what kind of trouble we'll get into along the way.

[FRANKY] But when we reach the end of our voyage,

I can truly call our ship "the ship of dreams."

[FRANKY] So, listen up, Luffy.

The Thousand Sunny isn't givin' up, not ever.

[FRANKY] And as her captain,

I know you aren't givin' up either.

So, let's sail.

[FRANKY] I'm gonna study my cold, hairy butt off.

When you see me again, I'll be more super than ever!

Hold on tight, Luffy!

Our adventure's just begun!

[KITTON'S GRANDFATHER] Uh, hey, your tiger's on fire.

[FRANKY] Huh?

[FRANKY screams]

[FRANKY] Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! Put it out, put it out!

[screaming]

Hey, what was that?

[FRANKY screaming]

A monster! Stand your ground!

[FRANKY yelling]

[MARINES scream]

[ALL screaming]

[FRANKY] That's right, Luffy, leave it to me!

Together, we'll conquer the seas of the New World!

[MARINES scream]

[NARRATOR] This day, a legend was born.

And for many years to come,

people would speak in hushed voices

of the Burning Beast of Baldimore.

[NARRATOR] In the Kamabakka Kingdom on the Grand Line.

Say, what was the article

that caught your attention in the paper?

Roger that.

Odd, it seems to have calmed you down.

A message from Luffy.

A hidden message in the newspaper

that only his friends would understand.

Wanna know what it is?

Oh, wait, you don't believe I'm his friend

to begin with, so I'm not gonna tell you!

[IVANKOV] You think you're cute, huh?

Hey. This meal is pretty good. Who cooked it?

What a pleasant surprise!

You have quite the discriminating palate!

It's weird though.

Suddenly, I feel like there's this energy flowing through me.

[IVANKOV giggles]

[IVANKOV] That's because you just ate a dish of aggression!

Such creations are this island's specialty!

--[QUEEN A] Yes! --[QUEEN B] Yes!

--[QUEEN C] Yes! --[QUEEN D] Yes!

[QUEENS] Yes!

Behold! The chiseled muscles on my lovely candies here

are works of art!

[CAROLINE] Ooh!

[IVANKOV] They belie their gentle hearts.

How did my candies become so lovely?

By eating the dishes of aggression!

You are... what you eat! Body, mind, and soul!

Food holds the key to keeping it all healthy!

For example, if all people in the world

drank a glass of milk every day...

[IVANKOV] ...there would be less crime!

It's perfectly logical!

In other words...

[ALL] ...aggression is good!

The food you eat can build your body?

Can't say I've ever thought of approaching it that way before.

Those "candies" of his... If they could build muscle

I wonder what else is possible with that food.

Whoa! Does that mean I could cook sexy food

and make Robin and Nami even hotter than they are now?

'Cause that sounds awesome!

What are we gonna we do with this guy?

What do I do with myself?

That settles it!

You gotta teach me this magic food thing now!

Yeah, you wish!

[SANJI groans]

[SANJI groaning]

[IVANKOV] Hold your horses, buster.

You have to earn it!

Listen, there are 99 vital recipes in all!

There are many New Kama Kenpo techniques, but this one

is passed down as a form of bridal training!

The secrets of Kamabakka Kingdom don't get shared

with just any randy scum that makes their way to us.

If you wanna learn our recipes,

you need the heart of a true maiden!

And these ladies would love to teach you!

Not a chance!

Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not here to be gal pals

with your freaky little friends!

I was born...

...to love the most beautiful ladies in the world!

[IVANKOV] Not!

Hee-haw!

[QUEENS cheering]

Well, quirks aside, you've got guts, boy.

I like you,

so that means I'll give you a chance!

[SANJI] Oh, yeah?

[IVANKOV chuckles]

But a chance is just a chance,

because I'll be giving the recipes to the 99 grand masters

of New Kama Kenpo on this island.

If you're half the man you think you are,

you can defeat them and claim the recipes for yourself.

Also, do not let your guard down,

because every New Kama on the island

will be trying to put this adorable dress on you!

Hope you have fun protecting your fragile manhood.

--[SANJI grunts] --[QUEENS chuckle]

[QUEEN E] Oh, Sanji!

[QUEEN F] Say goodbye to sleeping!

[CAROLINE] This sweet dress...

If you've never worn one before, you're in for a treat!

They're so breathable!

--[SANJI gasps] --[ELIZABETH] Join us!

It's nice to be girly!

[screams]

[IVANKOV] It's just you

versus the island of New Kama Kenpo!

Let's begin!

If you can win this fight, I'll also throw in a ship!

Not a bad deal, if you ask me!

So, what do ya say, boy?

[SANJI gasps]

[LUFFY] So listen, Mr.Cook!

Why don't you leave this boat and join my crew?

--Huh? --[LUFFY] I could use a cook

like you on my pirate ship!

[gasps]

I'm not worried.

[SANJI] Hmph.

Because I don't think it's time for me to die just yet.

[ZEFF] I've seen one or two like him before--

stubborn kids who'd rather die

than have to turn away from a fight once it's started.

I don't believe I've heard an answer.

Could it be that you've given up already?

Well, if you quit, then we--

[SANJI] When I win this...

[IVANKOV] Huh?

When I finish beating all of them,

I bet I'll be a whole lot stronger than I am now.

[ZEFF] Even with 100,000 more weapons,

our chore boy can still bring him to his knees

because he does not know fear.

[SANJI] Hey, Luffy,

hang in there just a little while longer.

[SANJI] I promised myself that one of these days

I'll go to the Grand Line.

[LUFFY laughs] Well, let's go right now!

[SANJI] It just isn't the right time--not yet.

[SANJI] Say, have you ever heard of the All Blue?

[LUFFY] No.

[SANJI] You've got to be kidding me.

That sea is a miracle.

Your dream is foolish. Then again, so's mine.

Now is as good a time as any.

Why not start my quest right now?

[LUFFY] Sanji.

[SANJI] I'll be joining your little crew

on your journey to be King of the Pirates.

[gasps]

Do you hear me, Luffy?

I wanna be your cook.

[SANJI] Luffy, when we meet again...

[SANJI] ...you'll see.

[SANJI] I'll be the best damn chef in all of the New World.

I'll make food fit for the King of the Pirates!

[SANJI] Until then...

[SANJI] ...I must survive...

...this hell.

[SANJI] I accept your challenge.

Now give me your worst!

[QUEENS yelling]

That's better!

Remember, we're not going easy on you!

Just shut up and fight me.

[IVANKOV] You heard him, ladies! Go to town!

[SANJI grunting]

[GREEN HAIR QUEEN] Hi, Sanji!

Aww, don't give me the cold shoulder!

[SANJI] Can it!

How feisty!

[GREEN HAIR QUEEN yells]

[SANJI groans]

[SANJI] Pull it together!

I can't lose yet! Not to you!

[gasps]

[SANJI groans]

[ELIZABETH groans]

That wasn't nice!

[SANJI groans]

--[QUEEN G] Peekaboo! --[SANJI yells]

--[PINK HAIR QUEEN grunts] --[SANJI groans]

[SANJI] Luffy,

both of us are getting through this, no matter what it takes!

So, I heard you're fighting me for my recipe?

Well, Caroline is ready! Come and get it, if you dare!

This is convenient.

After that last battle we had, I owe you a proper beatdown!

[CAROLINE yelling]

[SANJI yelling]

Here I come!

[SANJI] Make no mistake--I will win!

[NARRATOR] With their reunion on hold,

each member of the Straw Hat Crew

finds a new goal to strive for.

Thankfully, their surroundings are ripe with opportunity.

Determined to push forward into the New World,

they vow to show their captain

their new strength the next time they meet.

[LUFFY] On the next One Piece!

"I Will Get Much, Much Stronger! Zoro's Pledge to His Captain!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!
