10x378 - The Promise from a Distant Day! The Pirates' Song and a Small Whale!

[bunniefuu]

Travel across the oceans of the world

Bellow a battle cry

Once your heart feels refreshed, let the signal to set sail ring out

We've left the established course

Right now, we're rowing straight toward

The borderline between the sky and the ocean

In the dark depths of the ocean, adventure holds its breath

Don't you have a good time just imagining it?

Travel across the oceans of the world

Bellow a battle cry

Once your heart feels refreshed, let the signal to set sail ring out

"That feeling" I get when embarking

Is something I hope to remember always

If I can, I won't be afraid of anything

With our pulses racing, let's go on a trip now

Shy hearts engrave the rhythm of adventure

Snatch up the treasure here and there

While laughing out loud

As we dash by like a noisy party

Make some waves...

Life is "Adventurous"

Be aware it's "Dangerous"

Who's gonna be "One of us"

And a trip goes on because

We da pirate of the "Mass"

To the West, To the East

Gotta find my way, Sail away

All the way to "One piece"!!

Stuff a dream into your empty chest

And spread your wings

If the wind blowing through them dyes your heart

Let's press forward

Snatch up the treasure here and there

While laughing out loud

As we dash by like a noisy party

Make some waves...

Wealth, fame, power...

Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates,

once attained everything this world has to offer.

The words he uttered just before his death

drove people around the world to the seas.

My treasure? If you want it, you can have it!

Find it! I left everything this world has to offer there!

And so men rushed onto the Grand Line in pursuit of romanticism!

The world has truly entered a Great Pirate Era!



"The Promise from a Distant Day! The Pirates' Song and a Small Whale!"

Okay, close the gate.

Are you sure we should leave Perona?

We can't take someone we can't find.

Sheesh! Where in the world did she go?

Phew! Okay, you can stop now.

Lift your invisibility power!

We're free and clear!

I was terrified we'd get caught the whole time!

I never did find out what brought Tyrant Kuma to Thriller Bark.

About that, Absalom.

Tyrant Kuma came to tell us the name

of the successor to the former Warlord, Crocodile.

His successor...?

Yeah, but that's not the important part.

The successor is a man called Blackbeard.

He's pulled a truly nasty stunt.

Read that.

"Fire Fist Ace, nd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates...

...has been imprisoned in Impel Down"?!

It's well known that Ace is one of Whitebeard's top dogs.

The government just got their hands on a powerful card.

Definitely.

Depending on how they play it, this could completely change the Pirate Era.

We've got a serious situation on our hands!

It's no time for Moria-sama to be dead to the world.

I see where you're coming from,

but I'm more interested... in finding a wife.

Okay. Bring me a corpse that turns you on.

I don't want a zombie!

I wanna marry a living woman!

"One Day After Defeating Moria"

DefaultLow,, , , ,,In the end,

everyone slept all day in that courtyard.

DefaultLow,, , , ,,Well, sure. We were up all the previous night fighting like mad.

I'm starving, Sanji!

Nibble on some cheese.

Cheese doesn't cut it! Cheese doesn't energize me!

Then start hauling the ingredients I need to the courtyard.

I'm sure the members of the Victim Association don't want to budge.

So we're eating over there.

I'm sorry about that.

Everyone is just so happy to see the sun for the first time in years.

They are crying tears of joy while sunbathing.

Where did all of that energy come from?

It's so weird! It's a mystery!

Do you have enough food?

We have a mountain of additional food

on top of everything that was stolen.

We're doing great.

I wonder who did that. There are some nice people out there!

And they even loaded your ship with all of this treasure.

Even assuming it was Christmas, this is far too generous.

This is bliss!

Oh, a glass armband!

This is cool!

I claim this!

H-Hey, you know what'll happen if you take any of the treasure...

R-Right, Nami-san?

He can have it! There aren't any gems.

Huh? Is that how this works? Cool!

But I don't have a single piece of treasure for you!

We wouldn't take treasure from the people who saved us, Namizo.

Huh?

This is a nice knife!

What did you just say?

I'm sorry! This is out. It's studded with gems.

Huh? It popped right out.

Who is Namizo?

Come to think of it, this is rather strange.

For some odd reason, I don't feel like this is the first time we've met.

By any chance, are you Lola?!

Yep. Did I tell you my name?

So you're Lola!

I'm happy to see you again!

L-Lola...? Wh-Whoa, wait! Just a sec!

That boar zombie was her...?

You must be confused, huh? I'll fill you in later.

Anyway, take this. It's my way of thanking you.

Huh? Are you sure? You're thanking me?

Nami gave away some of our treasure!

I'm going on ahead. Is this everything?

A storm is coming!

Huh? A storm? Really?

This is the life!

The light is seeping into my body.

We're really alive.

Hey!

We brought food!

Straw Hat!

If you told us, we would have carried it!

We shouldn't let our savior work!

Is Zoro up?

He needs absolute rest, so he's in the mansion.

Hey, wake up.

Chopper!

We brought the stuff you asked for.

Oh, thank you.

How is he doing?

I've never seen Zoro so badly hurt.

He nearly lost his life.

I think something must have happened...

...while we were unconscious.

Indeed. I sincerely doubt that man simply left.

And it's strange how Luffy is bursting with energy.

I have no idea what's up with that, either.

To be honest, I saw what went down!

I saw what happened from beginning to end!

I'll give you the dirt.

I'll fill you in on what happened!

Come.

Wait! No, wait a second!

--Hold up! --Sanji?

Wait, why?! You were pretty cool yourself.

You were like, "Instead of the swordsman's life, take mine."

Drop it!

Now start talking. What happened afterwards?

I want to know what happened after I blacked out.

Okay...

That Warlord had yet another shocking ability.

He pressed his paw against Straw Hat.

It repelled all of the "damage" that Straw Hat had taken!

His damage...?

It was like a bubble of agony. And then...

If you want to take his place,

take all of his pain and suffering unto yourself.

It will be impossible for you to survive when you are already on the brink of death.

You will die.

Have a small taste.

Even the swordsman started screaming bloody m*rder

when he touched a small portion of it.

I hate to say it, but I thought he was a goner.

That's what makes it so touching!

It seriously made me cry!

I see. That explains why Luffy is doing well while Zoro is bedridden.

That was rash!

Where did all of this blood come from?!

Hey, are you still alive?!

Where is he?!

What happened here?!

No...

Nothing happened...!

Come on! Let's tell everyone about the Straw Hats' heroic story.

Yeah! I'm itching to tell them!

Wait!

Don't be insensitive.

He didn't risk his life out of a desire to earn our gratitude.

What would happen if they learned that Luffy's pain hurt a friend?!

Especially Luffy!

Just how badly are you dying to tell everyone?!

We can't tell them?

You're k*lling me!

All that matters is that everyone is okay.

Come on! Let's go eat.

Th... Th-Th...

These guys are super cool!

Their captain is so lucky!

So that explains it.

Hey, you two!

Weren't you acting like you knew what happened? What did you see?

Don't ask such an insensitive question.

All that matters is that everyone is okay.

I-I wanna tell them!

K-Keep that manly heroic story to yourself!

Wh-What gives?

Thank you for the food!

Delish! I've never eaten such good food before!

Oh, here! Try this! This!

Yeah! It's been years since we've eaten a decent meal.

I'm glad to be alive!

I cooked up a storm! Don't let it go to waste.

To think I get to eat your cooking again!

This really is lip-smacking good!

Not that I have any lips!

You need to shut up and eat!

That skeleton is hilarious!

But honestly--oh, pardon me.

After eating until I was full both yesterday and today,

I may have gained weight!

"Even though I'm a skeleton!" I can't take it anymore!

Skeleton, you rock!

How come that skeleton is able to talk?

And he's a hoot!

You're a clever skeleton, you know that?

Why are you able to move around?

Hey, it doesn't really matter!

--Oh, dinner! --Wow!

--Dinner! --Yay!

--Dinner! --Oh, baby!

--Dinner! --Come on!

--Dinner! --Super!

We didn't have a toast and it still turned into a party.

He's sleeping right through all this noise...

And here he's the toughest guy in the crew...

Hey, Chopper! Look!

--Luffy! --This is for Zoro.

Now drink away!

Don't give it to him!

Why not?! This will fix Zoro right up, since it's his favorite.

What type of treatment is that?!

That won't work? Then how about meat?

Okay, okay. I'll gladly accept your sentiment alone.

But only your sentiment!

There was a piano in this room?

Hey, I thought you only played the violin.

I can play most instruments.

Really? You're pretty good.

Um, I'd like to touch on an earlier conversation.

To be honest, I also saw what happened.

I was greatly moved by what you two did.

Isn't it wonderful to have comrades?

Don't include me in that. I merely made a fool of myself.

No, you bore the same resolve.

Would you like to pick a song? I'll take a request.

Yeah? I can request anything?

In that case...

And then...

♪ Yo-h* h* h*, yo-h* h* h*... ♪

--Wait, didn't you just ask for a request?! --♪ Yo-h* h* h*, yo-h* h* h* ♪

♪ Yo-h* h* h*, yo-h* h* h*... ♪

♪ Yo-h* h* h*, yo-h* h* h* ♪

♪ We're on our way... ♪

♪ ...to deliver Bink's booze ♪

♪ Sail leisurely with the sea breeze ♪

♪ Sail with the waves ♪

♪ The setting sun romps about on the other side of the tide ♪

♪ A ring of birds in the sky sing ♪

♪ Bid farewell to the port of the weaving village ♪

♪ As we set sail, we shall sing heartily ♪

♪ Silver and gold waves turn into ocean spray ♪

♪ We are off, bound for the ends of the ocean ♪

"Bink's Booze." I thought I recognized the song.

This takes me back.

Whee! Yahoo! Keep it going!

Hey, Brook! I know this song.

Shanks and the guys used to sing it.

Yeah. A long time ago, all of the pirates would sing this.

They sang it in good times and bad.

So you're gonna join our crew now, right?

After all, you've got your shadow back!

You can hit the seas without fear of the sun, right?

About that. There was one thing I neglected to tell you.

What is it?

I promised one of my comrades something.

I must tend to that first or I will lose face!

Yeah. You're talking about Laboon, aren't you?

I know all about it. Franky and Robin told me.

Huh? Oh, that's right.

Laboon!

That is the name of the whale.

He is at a certain cape--

Listen, Brook! We met Laboon at Twin Cape. Honest!

I already knew that Laboon

had been waiting there for his friends

to return for the past fifty years.

Skeleton, what's wrong? The tempo is getting slow.

This is the symbol of our promise to fight again.

Until we come back, don't remove that mark by hitting your head. Got that?!

All right!

See ya, whale! I'm leaving now!

Boy, was I ever surprised when I learned that you're the surviving member

of the band of pirates he's been waiting for.

And you still remember your promise to him.

I bet Laboon would be thrilled if he knew!

J-Just a moment, please!

I'm shocked! This is so sudden.

Is it true? Did you actually meet Laboon?

Yup.

Even though fifty years have passed?

Laboon is still waiting for us at that cape?

Are you telling the truth?!

Yup!

We also bore witness. We saw him with our own eyes.

Yeah!

Was he well?

Sure was!

He was as big as a mountain.

I'd love to see him!

When we left him, the cutie was about the size of a boat.

He had a stubborn streak, but he loved music.

He was a good boy...

Even now, I can still...

...picture him...

Is that right?

He's doing well?

I have never been this happy in my life!

Where did that whale come from? It's following our ship.

It must have gotten separated from its pod.

The poor thing. The ocean is a big place!

It looks sad. Well, it's still just a calf.

Captain Yorkie, why don't we play a song?

Great idea, Brook! Hey, everyone! Grab your instruments.

Okay!

Let's show him what the Rumbar Pirates that make

crying children laugh are made of!

Sounds good!

One, two, three, four!

Laboon, you are our dear comrade!

That's why we can't take you with us.

The Grand Line is so dangerous, we want you to wait here.

We will swing around the Grand Line.

I swear we will come back to this cape to see you again!



On the next episode of One Piece!

"Brook's Past! A Sad Farewell with His Cheerful Comrade!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
