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!

Luffy lost his brother Ace in the \NWar of the Best against the Navy.

After getting back on his \Nfeet with Jimbei's help,

Luffy met Dark King Rayleigh.

What are you gonna do, Luffy-kun?

I'm gonna go back.

To Marineford!

And the rest of the Straw \NHats learned the news.

Why?! What's going on?! What \Nmade Luffy do this...?!

Luffy! I'm glad he's okay!

It's in today's newspaper?

Luffy!

"Unexpected Relanding! Luffy, to Marineford!"

At Marineford - Navy Headquarters \Nin the Grand Line...

CONFERENCE ROOM

It's incomprehensible!

Events in the War of the Best

revealed he's the stepbrother \Nof the late Portgas D. Ace

and the son of the Revolutionary Dragon

and also, the grandson of \NNavy Vice Admiral Garp!

The pirate - Monkey D. Luffy!

He went missing after the war, \Nbut he was alive as expected

and resurfaced here, \Nat the Navy HQ, again!

A FEW DAYS AGO...

A few days ago...

How terrible!

It was an all-out war

between the Navy's elite and \Nthe world's greatest pirate.

It's lucky that the island didn't sink.

Where did you come from?

I'm from Alabasta, to do a story \Non Crocodile and Straw Hat.

Straw Hat could be dead already though.

I'm sure that the Navy wants to look \Nfor the pirates involved in the war

but they don't have time for that now.

Yeah.

The One Piece is real!!

Pirates inspired by Whitebeard's dying words

are committing crimes all over the world.

All the Navy soldiers who can fight \Nare dealing with them everywhere.

I feel sorry for them.

Speak of the devil, here come the soldiers.

What's wrong with that ship? \NIt's not coming into the bay!

They're acting strange.

Firing a blank?!

What's going on?!

--Have they contacted us?!\N--No, sir!

No way! Why did he come back...?!

What's the matter?!

It's Straw Hat Luffy!

What?!

--Did he steal a Navy ship?!\N--Why now?

He never learns... Sink the ship!

Fish-Man Jiu-Jitsu!

Ocean Current Shoulder Throw!

Is that the traitor - "First \NSon of the Sea" Jimbei?!

There is someone else!

Don't tell me that that's the legendary...

...first mate of the Roger \NPirates - Dark King Rayleigh!

Why don't they come ashore?

They went around the island once...

It's like a funeral at sea!

Funeral? Because our main \Nforces aren't here now?!

Damn pirates! Barrage \Nthem from all directions!

Go ahead and let loose on them!

Yeah!

Catch Straw Hat!

I'll fight you guys!

I want you guys to play with me as well!

Gum-Gum...

...Whip!

What is he up to?! He's heading west!

Does he want to bring the HQ down?!

What is he gonna do with the Ox Bell?

Flowers?

This is gonna be a great picture!

Chase him! Don't let him get away!

Now he's leaving...

What was that all about?

Dark King Rayleigh and \Nthe Warlord - Jimbei...

Are they taking his side?!

Rayleigh was a crew member \Nof the King of the Pirates.

Does that mean Straw Hat \Nis Roger's successor?!

N-No way! He's Dragon's \Nson! That can't be true...

In any case, this is...

...big news!

This article has spread all \Nover the world already!

It even covers the fact that \Nwe let Straw Hat get away!

How humiliating!

If you look at it simply, what \NStraw Hat did was pay a tribute...

...to his brother and Whitebeard and \Nall other people who died in the war.

No doubt about the moment of silence \Nand going around the island

but the bell should only have \Nbeen rung twice not 16 times!

So the 16 bells could be a challenge to us!

Honestly! How controversial he is.

Straw Hat Luffy...

But it's not so surprising \Nconsidering he's Garp's grandson.

I wonder how he knows Rayleigh.

I don't think Rayleigh wants \Nto come back to center stage.

Jimbei finally turned against us.

He being a Warlord was a \Nsymbol of intertribal peace.

What a shame!

The Three Great Powers are off-balance now.

How should we fill the 3 vacancies \Namong The Seven Warlords?

We need to see what will \Nunfold in the New World.

There'll be some changes in power \Nrelationships among pirates.

We have to pick the most powerful ones.

Blackbeard made his move \Nalready in the New World

and took out one of the rookies \Nwith a bounty of over 100 million.

He knows all there is to know \Nabout Whitebeard's territory.

He has a lead over the pirates who want \Nto become one of The Four Emperors.

No one has ever eaten 2 Devil \NFruits in history except for him.

The people who might be able to \Nstop him are The Four Emperors...

...or Marco the Phoenix and the \Nremnants of the Whitebeards.

It's always the "D."s who make \Ntrouble including "Portgas."

Those names are exposed to the public \Na little bit too much these days.

I tried to talk him out of it \Nbut Garp virtually resigned.

RED LINE THE HOLYLAND OF MARIE JOIS

But he has to keep his \Ntitle and stay in the Navy.

Educating young Navy soldiers.

If you want to resign from your \Nposition as fleet admiral,

could you at least do that?

Sengoku.

Yes, sir.

I accept that offer. It's not a \Nbad way to spend my retired life.

The two of you who have led the \NNavy at the front since Roger's era

are stepping down.

That's going to make quite a splash.

Including the escaped prisoners \Nfrom level 6 at Impel Down,

there are a lot of infamous \Npirates still on the loose.

And Newgate was at the top of the list.

The Pirate Era is changing now

and old soldiers shouldn't \Ncling to power in the Navy.

Justice is based on values. And \Nthose change every generation.

That's not what I want to hear.

By the way, Kong-san,

I want to recommend Aokiji \Nfor next fleet admiral.

NAVY HEADQUARTERS--MEDICAL CARE FACILITY

They call the power Haki.

It's safe to say that's what you got.

I guess it was awakened \Nby the trauma of the war.

Normally, you can only obtain \Nit through long-term training.

Haki...? That's what it is?

The vice admirals are all using it.

Really?!

I feel other people's presence too \Nstrongly...

It's uncomfortable...

You two are apprentices to Garp, aren't you?

Ask him about it.

Hey, doctor! Do you think \NI will get the power, too?

How do I know?

Dammit! It's like you're ahead of me now!

I don't know what's going on...

But what is this feeling?

It's like I'm a different person from before!

Maybe... If I try hard, I can get stronger!

Much stronger than I am \Nnow... As strong as him!

I'm sorry! I couldn't hold the fort!

Don't mind it!

He was alive, huh? Amazingly!

Did you hear about it? Straw \NHat caused trouble again.

Yes.

The War of the Best ended not so \Nlong ago and the 16 bells now?

Is this some kind of message?

I don't know.

That aside, what about my transfer?

Well, I'll talk to Sengoku-san \Nabout it but are you serious?

No one would say such a thing as a joke.

I know. G5 is not a place \Nthat you go voluntarily.

That place has a bunch of problems.

Navy - Grand Line 5th branch.

That means you wanna go to the New World.

It's better to be closer to your target.

The news about Straw Hat Luffy \Nis spreading all over the world.

NEW WORLD

Even in the New World...

"Straw Hat Luffy was alive!"

EUSTASS "CAPTAIN" KID

"Rang the 16 bells for a \Nnew era in Marineford."

What's the Ox Bell?

The Ox Bell is...

...the holy bell from the Ox Lloyd's,

KID PIRATES--KILLER

a Navy ship that was quite \Ninfluential a long time ago.

At the year's end, they ring it 8 \Ntimes to appreciate the passing year

and 8 times at the beginning of the \Nyear as a prayer for the new year.

So they ring it 16 times in total \N- that's the Navy's custom.

That's the meaning of the 16 bells.

But it's not the season yet.

So maybe he did it to announce the \Nend and the beginning of the era.

He wants to say,

"Whitebeard's era is over. \NI'll shape the new era"?

If it's not for those purposes, he \Nwouldn't go back to the place...

...where he has to relive the \Npain of losing his brother.

What an annoying bastard!

In fact, after the war,

he took the lead among the rookies \Nwith a bounty of over 100 million.

But I won't let him do whatever he wants.

The New World...

I thought I could have a lot of fun \Nhere but what's with these cowards?

Come on! I didn't cause any harm to you!

We were about to get out of this sea! \NLet us go back to paradise alive!

Paradise? You mean, a loving home?

You just got here so you have no \Nidea how horrible this sea is!

Straw Hat?

Yes, he caused trouble again.

CAPONE "GANG" BEGE

No need to be panic.

The one who has the final checkmate...

...will become the winner.

What happened?!

Father! The ship is not touching \Nthe water - it's in the air!

What?!

What did you say? What do you \Nmean? Control the ship, dammit!

Father! Something's coming \Ndown from the sky...

No, we are going up!

NEW WORLD FOODVALTEN ISLAND

I'm so sorry.

BASIL HAWKINS

Could you say it again? I couldn't catch it.

I'm Brownbeard!

A pirate with a bounty of over 80 million!

Brownbeard-sama!

Make sure you remember my \Nname! This is my territory!

What you did to my men is horrible!

I'll make you pay for it in blood!

I see. I thought I misheard it \Nbecause it's such a stupid name.

I'll tell you two things. \NFirst, I don't like jokes.

Jokes?

And here is another thing,

I can see the shadow of death on your face.

Are you sure that the Log Pose \Nis pointing at that island?!

Lightning is striking the island like rain!

UROUGE

We can't go there!

How can we get to the shore?!

Bold men who set foot in \Nthe New World even once...

High Priest, somebody is approaching!

Who is it?

...all call the first half of \Nthe Grand Line the same thing -

Say, young man...

Who is this grandma?

"That sea was like a paradise."

Do you want an umbrella?

If we stay here, we'll be dead soon!

We just wanna go back to paradise! Please!

You're such a wet blanket.

If you're not prepared to die...

...then stay out of...

...this sea!

I'll take you down soon! \NYou better be ready for it!

Straw Hat!

Reports on the new incident \Ninvolving Luffy at Marineford

spread throughout the world \Nin the blink of an eye.

The people are bewildered \Nby his mysterious actions,

as are his friends.

But Luffy has a reason for his behavior.

What exactly is Luffy thinking?!

On the next episode of One Piece!

"With Hopes It Will Reach My \NFriends! Big News Spreading Fast!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
