Original subtitles

[NARRATOR] Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates,

attained every treasure that the world had to offer.

Smiling, even as he stood upon the scaffold,

he issued a challenge to the world.

[GOLD ROGER] You want my treasure? You can have it!

I left everything I gathered together in one place.

Now you just have to find it!

[NARRATOR] Now, those who dare to dream hoist their flags

and sail into the Great Pirate Era!

[NARRATOR] All pirates searching for the treasure One Piece

must brave the second half of the Grand Line.

These wild and dangerous seas are known as the New World.

Now, Monkey D. Luffy, a boy whose body became rubber

after eating the Gum-Gum Fruit,

sets sail into the New World with his faithful crew.

I'm gonna be the King of the Pirates!

[NARRATOR] Two years have passed

since the War of the Best in Marineford.

Luffy and his crew underwent special training

before reuniting to continue on to the New World.

They are now separated once again on Fishman Island,

thousands of feet below sea level.

[PIRATES scream]

[BOTH gasp]

Let's go! Break through!

We're off to the Sea Forest!

[LUFFY] "The Ryugu Palace in Shock!

The Kidnapping of Shirahoshi!"

[DEN] Thank you for making the trip!

I don't get many visitors from above!

No problem!

When Tom told me his kid brother back home

was also a shipwright, I knew I had to visit.

[DEN laughs] Still. Traveling to Fishman Island's

a pretty difficult task.

It's not bad.

Training with Tom since I was young paid off!

My crewmates and I made it here on a ship that I built!

Is that so?

Well, you were my brother's pupil, it must be a fine vessel.

Yeah!

The Thousand Sunny'll take us anywhere we wanna go!

It's my life's work, my masterpiece!

[DEN] I'd love to see it before ya leave.

Yeah, about that.

After we got to Fishman Island,

the Sunny was swept away by the tide.

That's one of the reasons I came to see you.

You know the area much better than I do.

Do ya have any idea where the ship might have turned up?

[DEN] Trust me, you'll find it.

But where do I even start?

[DEN] It's a funny thing, but when ships sink

around these parts, the tide almost always carries them

to the same place. The Sunny is bound to be there, too.

I guarantee it. With gusto, even.

[FRANKY] You're that confident, huh?

[DEN] Don't worry, we'll get there soon enough.

On to the Sea Forest!

The Sea Forest?

[LUFFY laughing]

Hold on, Luffy! What are you doing?

Stop! Megalo, come back here now!

Stay in the palace!

[SHIRAHOSHI] Father, Brothers, all my caretakers. Forgive me!

I'm leaving without your permission!

[SHIRAHOSHI] I promise to be home by dinner!

[LUFFY laughs] We're on an adventure!

[MINISTER OF THE RIGHT] What has gotten into Megalo?

I can't believe it! He even left the doors open!

What if something were to happen to-- Oh, no!

Hey, skeleton! Hurry up and check on the Princess!

[BROOK] All right!

But stop riding my bones about it!

[MINISTER OF THE RIGHT screams]

[MINISTER OF THE RIGHT] She's gone!

Princess Shirahoshi never leaves her room!

Oh, no! But why are you

keeping her locked up here in the first place?

To keep her safe!

Enemies are trying to get to her!

King Neptune. I'm sorry I've failed you!

Who knows how far away the kidnappers are!

Kidnappers?!

Princess Shirahoshi!

Forgive me.

You're positive she was kidnapped?

Ha! How rude of you!

[groans]

[PIRATES groaning]

[PIRATE 534B] The gate connecting Fishman Island

to the Ryugu Palace.

Tell us where the switch to open it is, or else!

[BROOK] Wait, switch?

Skeleton!

You have to get back to King Neptune as fast as possible!

Tell him the princess is gone and that we're under attack!

We didn't want any of this to happen,

but it's the only way.

They told us that if we wanna survive,

we gotta follow their orders.

Please just tell us, okay?

Whose orders?

It doesn't matter!

Just tell us or we're all gonna die!

[BROOK] But I don't--

[PIRATES] Just tell us!

[MINISTER OF THE RIGHT] What in the world is going on here?

These guys are so useless!

Humans really are pathetic, aren't they?

Put 'em in the water and they just drown!

[DECKEN laughs] You pirates are now under the control

of Hordy Jones, so listen closely!

I've got wonderful news!

You have the chance to be part of a historic mission!

Talk about lucky!

That looks like Vander Decken.

Isn't he the captain of the Flying Dutchman?

This can't be real.

That cursed ghost ship is a myth!

[DECKEN] Oh, I'm no ghost.

But I am Vander Decken's descendant!

I've got a curse of my own as well.

Even though I'm a Fishman, I can't swim.

But that's all right!

I've got this devil fruit power known as the Mark-Mark fruit.

How 'bout I show you?

You in the stripes! C'mere!

Step right up!

Me?

[HACHI] Hordy!

[HORDY] Huh?

This is nonsense and you know it!

Enough is enough!

[PIRATES murmuring]

Is that Hachi?

What is he doin' here?

Hello there.

[HACHI] Those Energy Steroids you're taking

will do nothing but mess up your body!

And no good can come of destroying Fishman Island!

On top of it, you're underestimating

the power of Neptune!

Hachi. I've heard enough of your rambling.

I don't wanna listen to your voice anymore.

To think you were an officer of the pirate group that I admired.

Now you're nothing but a washed-up coward.

So, make way for the real pirates.

If we wanna teach all of the humans a lesson,

we're gonna need Fishman Island.

That means Neptune is our enemy!

Arlong thought Fishmen were the supreme race.

When did you change your mind?

Arlong was wrong, there is no supreme race!

Decken! Hyouzou! Why are you doing this?

The two of you refused to help Arlong

invade the East Blue when he was in power.

So tell me.

What makes you wanna work with these young punks now?

That's easy. I'm in it for money.

These guys are willing to pay. Arlong was stingy.

He never did pony up enough dough to enlist my services.

That's why he was always stuck

taking crappy swordsmen like you along.

No wonder he lost.

[DECKEN laughs] A sight for sore eyes! An angry Hachi!

Yeah, I remember what happened back then.

Arlong had the nerve to ask me to work underneath him.

What a preposterous idea!

Vander Decken never works under anybody.

I'm my own man!

Hordy gets that better than anyone.

Arlong had goals and an ability to act on them,

which I can respect.

But he was also brash.

As a leader, he was lacking in cunning.

When you old-timers were running rampant on the sea,

we were all still too young to become pirates.

So we watched.

We saw what you did well and what you did poorly.

We learned from all your mistakes.

In that sense, we owe you our thanks.

Take heart.

I will continue right where Arlong left off.

I don't understand why you're not onboard with that.

You supported Arlong for all those years, after all.

What a disappointment you are, Hachi.

You might want to know.

The pirate who destroyed Arlong's dream, Straw Hat Luffy,

is on Fishman Island.

It's a perfect opportunity for some revenge!

[HACHI] Even though I fought him as a member

of the Arlong Pirates, he now calls me his friend!

[LUFFY] Look. All three of you are my friends now!

[HACHI] Straw Hat Luffy also saved my life.

If I could, I would see him...

...but I'm too ashamed of my fellow Fishmen to do it!

How can I face him when you're clinging Arlong's legacy?

You consider a human your friend? How pathetic!

You're not a real Fishman! Get outta my sight!

[HACHI whimpers]

Calm yourself and listen.

[laughs] You may have forgotten how pirates

do things around here.

If there's something you wanna say,

you gotta use violence to get your point across!

For example! Watch!

[PIRATE 534J] Where is he throwing it to?

Did you notice? When I touched you earlier,

I marked you as my new target.

No matter what I throw or where I throw it,

it will always make its way back to whatever I mark!

Not only that, but it'll come back at you full speed!

I suspect!

[screams]

But that's crazy!

Decken just tossed the knife away from that guy.

And it came back to hit him!

[HACHI] The Mark-Mark curse.

Of course, there are some limitations.

Can you figure them out?

You had better hurry.

[growls] Stay away from me, Decken!

I've heard enough stories

about your Mark-Mark power. You gotta make him stop!

He's trying to kill me! Please stop him, Hordy!

Sorry, Hachi. I can't.

As he told you earlier, Vander Decken isn't working under me.

We're allies on equal footing.

Besides, you're really starting to get on my nerves!

Go ahead, Decken!

[HACHI] Damn it!

All right. Voila!

[laughs]

[DECKEN] That's it! Run away!

[DECKEN] No matter how fast you run, or how far you go,

they'll keep chasing you until they meet their mark,

and you know what that means!

I'll be ok if I can just find my way to the exit.

[pants] There. I should be safe now!

Hopefully, they sink in the water.

[yelps] They burst through the bubble like it was nothing!

Get away!

[HACHI screams]

[HACHI screaming]

[DECKEN laughs] I can leave up to two marks.

One for each palm! Left and right!

But I've worn a glove on this one for ten years,

since I touched Princess Shiraroshi and made her my mark!

She'll stay that way forever!

Get it yet?

I can throw weapons and even my love!

They'll track you down to the furthest depths of hell!

That's the Mark-Mark curse for ya!

Whoa!

He can keep stalking the princess

for as long as he wants and stay right here!

Best of all, he'll never have to deal

with fighting Neptune and his sons!

[DECKEN] Bingo!

[NEW FISHMAN PIRATE 534F] How devious can you get?

[NEW FISHMAN PIRATES] Decken! Decken! Decken!

[HORDY] Now about you human pirates.

I'm sure you're all familiar with Decken's Mark-Mark power.

So, let's begin the first stage of your mission.

[HORDY] They say the Ryugu Palace is impregnable,

but I disagree. Someone in this room

has been able to break through its defenses

for ten straight years. Him.

Captain Vander Decken.

[DECKEN laughs]

So you'll be our cannon fodder.

Meaning, Decken will treat your bodies as living ammunition.

Throwing you straight into the wall of the princess's tower.

[PIRATES gasp]

Of course, weapons can't smash it,

and most of you runts won't do any better.

And then, you'll open up the gate from inside the palace.

Find the gate switch and let us in.

That's all you have to do.

No way! We can't make it that far.

You're crazy! We'd already be dead

from hitting the wall!

You're correct!

That's why I want you humans to do it.

Your lives don't mean anything to me!

In our world, you're either slaves or corpses.

Those of you who survive the impact, carry out your duty.

If you succeed in opening the gate, I'll set you free.

But if you refuse to do it, then leave!

I'll kick you out of the bubble myself!

So you better do as I say!

But if-if we leave the bubble,

we can't get to the top without drowning!

Well, that's no good!

On the upside, that should make

this decision easy for you, though.

[yelps]

[DECKEN] Have fun!

[laughs]

[HORDY] It's a new era!

From now on, our people will forge

a new history with our own hands.

[PIRATES screaming]

We'll start by conquering the Ryugu Kingdom!

[NEW FISHMAN PIRATES] Yeah!

[laughs]

Shirahoshi. Just you wait!

[laughs]

[NARRATOR] Meanwhile, back at the palace.

[PIRATE 534BB panting] Don't go so fast!

[PIRATE 534CC] We're injured!

Pick up the pace, Skeleton!

It's imperative we make it to the king!

Listen. I'm begging you to take us to that gate!

Hordy's gonna kill us all if we don't get it open!

You have to!

[SANJI] Hey. I have a question for you guys.

Sanji! Go back to bed.

No fighting!

[SANJI] I'm not fighting. I just wanna

ask them something about the Ryugu Palace.

Is she there? The Mermaid Princess?

Yeah, she's there. So what?

I'll go. It's worth it.

No, it isn't! You're still too weak!

If she's beautiful, you might die!

Come on. Of course she's beautiful, right?

Well, I've never seen her,

but they do say she's quite lovely.

She is? Great! Then lead the way!

Let's stop fighting! Take me!

Wait. Which way is the palace?

My true love awaits!

What's wrong with this guy?

I don't know,

but we're supposed to take him in regardless.

[AMMO KNIGHT 534B] Before we depart for the palace,

we need to handcuff you!

If I can see her, who cares?

Tie me up and take me away!

You nutcase! Snap out of it! Don't go with them!

[SANJI] Wait a minute!

How am I supposed to cook for the Mermaid Princess

if you put me in handcuffs, you imbeciles?

That's why it's not okay?

I knew he would resist!

Everyone subdue the human!

Bastards. Sabotaging my one chance to see the princess?

I bet you're just jealous!

[AMMO KNIGHTS groaning

[SANJI] Too bad! You can't have her!

Hey. Sanji! Don't fight them!

We gotta run!

Or whatever. Beat them all up. Sure.

You realize we were innocent before you did that!

[SANJI] Well, it's their fault for trying to handcuff me.

[FISHMAN 534AA] They're members of the Straw Hats.

[FISHMAN 534BB gasps] How dangerous.

[CHOPPER] Look at what you've done!

Now everybody's giving us that dead fish stare!

And not 'cause they're fishmen, either!

That's not our problem.

Besides, they saw the guards attack us.

But you were the one doing all the attacking!

Hey now, you beat up a lot of them up, too!

Speaking of. Good job.

Your training really paid off.

[gasps] You think you can buy me off with a compliment?

No way, pal!

[screams]

A lady is in need!

[MERMAID 534A] Oh, my god! There's a man

covered with blood on the shore!

[FISHMAN 534CC] You're that guy from the Fishman District!

What happened to you?

[FISHMAN 534DD] Someone call a doctor!

Oh. Hey! I'm a doctor!

Wha--? Hachi?

Who did this? What happened?

Hachi, it's us! Chopper and Sanji!

Hold on! We'll help you.

But why would someone do this?

It's you guys. I'm happy to see you.

Is Straw Hat here, too?

[CHOPPER] He's not with us!

Don't try to move!

I'll start treating you in a sec!

[HACHI] Wherever your friends are, find them,

and get the hell outta here.

You don't wanna get involved, believe me.

Get back on your boat and leave this place while you still can,

or you'll be fighting for your lives.

Hordy and Decken. Go.

The New Fishman pirates will start attacking

the whole island soon!

Once they do, the Ryugu Kingdom will fall!

Ah! King Neptune!

[NEPTUNE] Hm?

[THE MINISTER OF THE RIGHT] The princess has been kidnapped!

I don't know how but they must've broken into the room!

[BROOK] Also, pirates are crashing into the tower!

It's bizarre!

In any case. They'll be here any minute!

Get ready!

[NEPTUNE] Kidnapped?

Somebody's taken away my Shirahoshi?

Who was it? I'll kill them!

[screams]

Wait, there's a pirate raid going on?

And they don't mean us?

This is the worst time!

All I want is to get out of here

and now it's some kind of pirate party!

We're screwed!

Fine! Just ignore me, jerk!

I'll cut 'em.

Violence is the last thing we need right now!

If we wanna make it out of here alive,

we have to open up the gate.

No matter what!

[BROOK] Oh, no, they're here!

[MEGALO grunting]

[LUFFY] You can come out of the shark now, ya know.

[SHIRAHOSHI] Oh. That's okay,

I think I'd rather stay inside for now.

[MEGALO grunts]

[LUFFY] Must be nice, after being cooped up for ten years.

[SHIRAHOSHI] Yes, my heart is racing!

They're probably worried sick about me.

You've been out five minutes!

Have a little fun, would ya? Jeez, what a weirdo!

Now I know how it feels.

[giggles]

This is a real adventure, huh?

[LUFFY laughs] It sure is! If your heart's racing,

it counts as an adventure!

You mentioned a thing called "the Sea Forest," right?

So what is that? Is it a pretty cool place?

It's a graveyard.

Or rather, there's one grave that I never got to visit,

because I was locked away. Ten years, I've wanted to go,

and now my only dream can finally come true.

[JIMBEI] It's already been ten long years

since her assassination in broad daylight

threw Fishman Island into upheaval.

Time flies.

[JIMBEI] The princes have grown into strong

and worthy protectors.

Princess Shirahoshi is locked in the tower, but she is safe.

But as for you. Your memory survives.

Your ideals will live on forever.

Queen Otohime!

[NARRATOR] Hordy's plan for revenge is set into motion.

The defenses of the Ryugu Palace have been left wide open

thanks to the unexpected actions of the pirates

thrown into its walls.

The Straw Hats, who have unwittingly taken control

of the palace, must now defend it

against the New Fishman Pirates,

who pour into its halls, lead by Hordy himself.

[LUFFY] On the next One Piece!

"Hordy's Onslaught!

The Retaliatory Plan Set Into Motion!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!
