One Piece (ワンピース)

Wealth, fame, power...

Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates,

attained this and everything else the world had to offer.

And his dying words drove countless souls to the seas.

You want my treasure?

You can have it!

I left everything I gathered together in one place.

Now you just have to find it!

These words lured men to the Grand Line in pursuit of

dreams greater than they've ever dared to imagine!

This is the time known as the Great Pirate Era!

Come aboard and bring along all your hopes and dreams

Together we will find everything that we're looking for

One Piece!

Compass left behind It'll only slow us down

Your heart will be your guide

Raise the sails and take the helm

That legendary place that the end of the map reveals

Is only legendary until someone proves it real

Through it all, through all the troubled times,

through the heartache, and through the pain

Know that I will be there to stand by you

Just like I know you'll stand by me!

So come aboard and bring along all your hopes and dreams

Together we will find everything that we're looking for

There's always room for you if you want to be my friend

We are, we are on the cruise

We are!

"I'm Luffy!

The Man Who's Gonna Be King of the Pirates!"

Of course not. My ship is much too sturdy and

too heavy to be affected by such a measly whirlpool.

Excuse me?

Would the beautiful lady care to dance?

-Ugh. I missed again. -

Strike three, pal.

I'd be embarrassed.

You suck!

It's heavier than I thought it'd be!

Maybe it's filled with beer!

Well, I think it's our beer now.

And I'm not sharing my half.

Ship off the starboard bow!

And they're flying a pirate flag!

We've got a pirate ship in pursuit!

-Enemy raid! Enemy raid! -

Captain, we've got pirates!

What?!

- -

People! Please stay calm!

Panicking will only get you hurt!

Just follow my crew's instructions

in an orderly fashion!

Fire!

Coby!

Yes, ma'am?

Who is the most beautiful of all on these seas?

Well, uh... That would be, the captain of our ship

-Lady Alvida, of course. -

Good answer.

That means a lot to me.

It's been a while...

We're finally gonna see a little action.

That's right!

So make it count! Hit 'em with all

-you got, boys! -

Here we go!

Time to show them the terror of Iron Club Alvida,

lady pirate of the seas!

Coby! What are you doing?!

I'm not... real good at this stuff.

You're telling me.

Maybe it's 'cause you're too busy

backtalking me all the time.

Oh, no! Not the club! Anything but the club!

Please!

Then get your ass in gear!

- Move it, you brat! -

We're not gonna take your lives, we swear...

But we will take everything else you got on you.

And anyone who fights back'll be eating their dinner

off the bottom of the ocean.

Uh, hello...?

I really hope there's no one in here.

That's a relief...

Huh?

Wow, that's one big barrel.

I wonder what's inside of it.

- -

Huh? Who are you?

-I ain't seen you before! -

- -

It's our favorite coward.

You trying to hide in here and

duck out on all the action again?

No way!

I was just trying to haul this big barrel of beer

over to you guys!

Why don't you let us lighten your load?

I was just startin' to get thirsty.

You can't!

Lady Alvida will kill us if she ever found out!

She won't if you keep your trap shut.

Right?

Boy?

Yeah... Right.

Okay.

This sucker's heavy.

Hah, perfect.

Hold on, boys...

I'll open her the old fashioned way.

I...

slept...

so...

great...!

Hm?

Who's that?

Who the hell are you guys?

Who the hell are you?!

Your friend'll catch colds sleeping like that.

You're the one who knocked him out!

Hm?

Hold up!

Are you messing with us when you know good and well

that we're vicious pirates?! Huh?!

- - I'm starving.

You got any food?

I'm talking to you!

You damn kid!

- -

Hmm?

Die!

- -

What is wrong with you two?

Wh-Who are you?!

Me? Oh...

My name's Monkey D. Luffy.

Hi!

So... What just happened?

You got me.

Quick! You've got to run!

If those guys come back here with their buddies,

then they'll kill you on the spot!

I don't care about that. I'm hungry.

How can you just blow this off like that?!

There are hundreds of them up on deck

and they're waiting for the opportunity to kill anything!

- -

You're going the wrong way!

No!

-Wait! -

It's a goldmine!

Food! Food! Food! Food! Food!

- - Who's knows...

Maybe we'll be safe in here as long as no one else gets hungry.

...box looks promising!

Apples! Excellent!

Heh, tasty!

Uh... Hey! My name's Coby!

You're Luffy, is that right?

That was pretty neat when you

jumped out of that barrel back there.

These are awesome!

So are we on a pirate ship or what?

No...

It's a passenger ship that's being raided by pirates,

pirates under the command of Lady Alvida.

Aw, who cares anyway?

What I wanna know is if there are any boats on board.

I think there are a few.

Great, 'cause mine got sucked into some big whirlpool.

That one outside? No way!
