08x251 - The Truth Behind Her Betrayal! Robin's Sorrowful Decision!

[bunniefuu]

Give Tom-san back to us!

It's all right! Now let's move forward

with the sun always in our hearts

As power passes through our clasped hands

let's grab hold of our wishes

Working together, let's ride the giant waves

Let's hurry toward the excitement-- there's the starting signal

Now's the time to set sail-- let's raise anchor

Cut through the rainbow-colored wind and head for a sea of adventure

It'll be a journey fraught with injury

but what you cherish most will be right there

And if you get into a jam

I'll always be there to protect you

It's all right! Now let's move forward

with the sun always in our hearts

If a storm hits, let's put our arms around each other

and gaze at the light beyond

If we gather up the pieces of our dreams

they'll make a map leading to tomorrow

So let's grab hold of our wishes

under the same flag-- together, we're one

One Piece

Your chief? Hm?

Please go ahead, Chief.

Ouch! It's hot! It's hot! It's hot!

I spilled the coffee!

Dammit! Stupid coffee!

What the hell?

Are you there...

...Cutty Flam?

--Hm? --It's been a while.

I never thought you'd survived that...

It's hard to believe, but I'm happy to hear it.

Who the hell are you?

You don't remember me?

I'm the man who was from Cipher Pol No.

and arrested Tom's Workers red-handed for attacking the Judicial Ship eight years ago!

You b*stard! Spanda!

"M"! You're missing the "M"! It's "Spandam"!

I'll be very much looking forward to your arrival at Enies Lobby.

Now, guys! Hurry up and bring that criminal here already!

Hm?

Ouch! It's hot! It's hot! It's hot! Stupid lamp!

--Roger. --Click.

Ow, ow, ow...!

Dammit! Let me go, you jerk!

Let's go.

Hey, hold it, you b*stards!

Let him go!

Ah... I'm sorry.

Hey! You only shine for a second?!

If I remember right, you are... one of the Straw Hats, aren't you?

What?

"The Truth Behind Her Betrayal! Robin's Sorrowful Decision!"

The only departure left today is for government personnel, huh?

To think they have to travel when Aqua Laguna is about to hit. Must be a pain.

Did you know that some real big shots are gonna get on today's special train?

What're you taking about?

This is what I overheard when the Navy people were talking earlier,

but these big shots seem to have been on a secret mission in Water Seven

for the past several years, hiding their true identities.

Secret mission?

Yeah. I don't know what they were actually doing, though.

Hiding their true identities? Then it might be people we know, huh?

To tell you the truth, I kinda think I know who they are.

What?! Who are they?!

--Do you think I'm wrong? --What?! From the backstreets?!

I sometimes see those guys having secret conversations

in the corner at Blueno's bar.

But that's not enough reason to suspect them, you know.

But despite the fact that they don't work much, they're quite prosperous, right?

Yeah, that's true.

They often take the first-class cars.

Right? In any case, we'll know who they are when they get on the sea train later.

I bet this will be the talk of the whole town tomorrow.

I see...

This isn't working! The wind is too strong!

The fire isn't going out at all!

If people are still inside, they'll be done for if this keeps up!

Iceberg-san...! Paulie-san!

Nami... Oh, no...

I have to... treat her... right... away...

Hurry! Give them treatment! They've got terrible burns!

Hey! What're we gonna do with this reindeer?!

Him, too! He saved their lives!

Y-You're right. Hey! Give me a hand!

Oh, boy...

He got his butt whipped...

So, in short, you're no longer part of the Straw Hats,

but you still haven't quit being a pirate, huh?

If you're a pirate, then we'll take you.

--Kalifa! --Yep.

And this ship...

You didn't take it down yet, huh?

Hey! Don't you dare touch her!

What're you doing?! Hey! Are you listening?!

Although it was an assumed identity, we are recognized shipwrights in this town.

You should listen when we say it's no good no matter what you do.

So what?! Just leave her alone! She's not even your ship!

This will release the water, huh?

Wait! Don't do anything stupid! Hey!

Hey! Stop it!

Don't worry.

I'll carry you guys for a little bit longer.

Merry!!

Move back! It's gonna collapse!

Dammit!

You idiot! Run!

Dammit! Isn't there anything we can do?!

Iceberg-san has recovered consciousness!

Really?! That's great!

What a relief! He's okay!

Iceberg-san!

It's all thanks to that reindeer!

But I heard that he's a pet of the Straw Hats.

Hey! This one, too! The woman woke up!

Wh-What're we gonna do?

Should we make her tell us the Straw Hats' whereabouts now?

But she's severely injured. And she's a woman, too.

But that's...

Iceberg-san! You shouldn't move around yet!

Guys... give us some space.

I wanna talk to this woman alone.

I wonder what he wants to talk alone with her about.

Beats me.

Ow! What'd you do that for?!

Quit standing around! Lucci-san and the others may still be inside!

Give us a hand, you idiots!

Oh, that's right. Hey!

Yeah. Sorry!

Well...

First... I'm sorry.

We falsely accused you of the crime.

I'll clear up the misunderstanding later.

I wanna talk about Nico Robin.

Do you know something?!

Did that woman change after you guys came to this town?

Yes, suddenly.

After she went out to town, she suddenly disappeared,

and by this morning, she was the suspect of your attempted assassination.

When my friends finally found her,

she said she would no longer come back to us.

We didn't know what was going on.

So we came here tonight

in order to ask her directly again why she's leaving the ship.

To make my wish come true...

A wish that can never come true if I'm with you!

What is this wish that can never come true if she's with us...?

Let me tell you what I know.

It was probably when you lost sight of Nico Robin the first time.

CP ...

The Government's operation was already in progress.

There is, of course, a reason for that woman's actions.

But before I tell you about that,

I want you to know that Nico Robin and I both have a means

to bring back the ancient weapon that could destroy the world.

Destroy the world?

That's right.

A problem occurred in our plan.

Everyone, come to the bedroom right away.

Don't sh**t Iceberg yet.

Now, you get it, Nico Robin?

The blueprints you guys were after are fakes.

Even if I am to be k*lled, I won't give those blueprints to the Government!

But if you're sniffing around the Poneglyphs on another front

and helping the Government as well,

then I have to stop you right here, right now.

I'm not seeking the Poneglyphs in order to bring the weapon back.

I just want to know the history, that's all.

Such a claim doesn't mean anything!

I told you, didn't I?

Over... and over again...

Even if you don't intend to do so...

Weapons hurt people despite your intentions!

They can even hurt those who mean a lot to you!

That which hurts people doesn't necessarily have malicious intent.

If that simple curiosity of wanting to know the history

leads to the destruction of the world,

you should die right here, right now, Nico Robin!

Even after you saw the Ohara devils' fate,

you still want to chase after the world's history?!

Don't talk like you know everything about Ohara!

You don't even know how much the World Government messed up my life!

If you hate the Government that much, then why are you helping them?!

Because I have a wish I want to come true even if I have to give up everything.

There're two conditions that CP forced on me in this town.

One is to pin the assassination on the Straw Hats.

The other is to turn myself in to the Government and obey them.

If you do that, you'll die, too.

Why do you accept such conditions after evading them for years?

In this lone instance, CP has been given permission

to exercise Buster Call against the Straw Hats.

Buster Call?

It's an emergency order to summon five of the vice admirals

from Navy Headquarters and ten battleships to one place.

Once you've been targeted by the national w*r-class military power,

nothing will remain of you.

Normally, in the Navy, this authority only belongs to the three admirals

and the head of the Navy, the fleet admiral.

But this time,

through the admiral Aokiji,

CP was given the authority to exercise it just this once.

If I didn't accept the conditions, Buster Call was going to be exercised on us.

When I heard the name Aokiji, I gave up.

I was always able to make good my escape for the past years

because I had nothing to protect...

Because I could betray people and use them as a shield.

But I really can't do that any longer.

The life I once gave up on...

The heart that I lost...

The dream I could no longer have... They picked them all up for me.

I was able to make friends who would believe in someone like me.

Then, your wish is...

That the six Straw Hats, excluding me, can leave this island safely!

Are you saying, for that, you don't care if the weapon is brought back?!

You don't care what happens to the world?!

That's right. I don't!

Enough of that nonsense!

I couldn't pull the trigger.

Of all people,

over the lives of everyone in this world,

she chose the lives of the six of you.

It was for us...

Now that I might have the weapon's blueprints taken away by them,

I don't have the right to criticize her, though.

Hey! What's wrong?!

Good...

So Robin didn't betray us after all.

I'd better gather everyone immediately and let them know!

Thanks, Iceberg-san!

Wait! Straw Hat and the others were beaten!

What do you think you can do now?!

"Now"?!

It starts now! Luffy and the others are fine.

It'd take a lot more than that to take them out.

We're gonna get Robin back!

When unsure, anyone can be weak.

There's no limit to their strength when they know it's okay to save her!

Chopper! Chopper!

Chopper! Wake up! We have to find everyone!

Chopper! Hey, wake up!

Hey, hey, he's really seriously injured, you know...

Wake up! Chopper!

Chopper...

You go join Luffy and the others and tell them everything that just happened...

...without leaving a single word out.

What're you gonna do?

We'll part ways here for a bit.

Well, don't worry. I won't do anything reckless.

What's the matter?

I wonder... if Robin doesn't like us anymore.

Chopper...

Hm?

Remember one thing.

When a woman lies...

...a real man forgives her.

For today's last service to Enies Lobby, departing at PM,

please board from the second floor lobby due to the raised water level.

--Okay, let's go check them out! --Yeah!

Since this involves a secret operation,

you're forbidden to see them board.

Oh, darn...

You were chased after for the past years.

I'm surprised that you gave up now.

Bingo...

We had a dream that day

Our belief in ourselves

makes us able to cross the wildly surging ocean

You're braver and more caring than anyone else

If you ever depart this ship and live in a different world

In the end, we can all surely smile

Then, it's not that Robin doesn't like us anymore?!

That's right! We'll all go and rescue her!

Okay, let's go! Where are Luffy and Zoro?!

We have to hurry up and find them.

There's only thirty minutes left before the sea train departs.

Just wait, Robin!

We'll fight for you no matter who we're up against!

On the next episode of One Piece!

"The Steam Whistle Forces Friends Apart! The Sea Train Starts to Run"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
