12x420 - The Friends' Whereabouts – Bridging the Islands and Vicious Vegetations!

[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...

The time is the Great Pirate Era.

Countless pirates fight desperately for the One Piece,

the great treasure left behind by Gold Roger, King of the Pirates.

Monkey D. Luffy, a boy whose body turned to rubber after he ate the Gum-Gum Fruit,

also takes to the sea to become the next King of the Pirates.

As Luffy and his friends overcome numerous adventures,

the World Government is less and less able to ignore their existence.

This is exciting!

What kind of adventure is waiting for us next?!

The crew, on its way to the New World,

will speed along the Grand Line again today!

Leaving the female-only island of Amazon Lily

to rescue his brother Ace who is waiting to be ex*cuted,

Luffy stowed away on a navy ship with the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock's help

and headed to the Great Prison - Impel Down!

Meanwhile, the rest of the Straw Hat crew,

who had been ejected from the Sabaody Archipelago by Bartholomew Kuma are...

"The Friends' Whereabouts! Bridging the Islands and Vicious Vegetations!"

Love-Love Beam!

Are we gonna survive this trip?!

They'll never learn!

Luffy, the food is here!

Luffy?

Hey, haven't we reached Ace yet?

Yes, I'm afraid it'll take more time.

I see.

Oh! Yum-yum!

Luffy.

Do you want some tea?

Yeah, please.

Yes, please.

Oh no!

A-All right, I'll make some.

Say, Luffy,

tell me about your friends.

Well, I mean, it's no big deal! I'm just making conversation!

It's not like I want to know more about you or something like that!

Well, which one of them should I start with?

Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Brook, Franky, Nami, Robin...

Nami? Robin?

There are girls?!

Yeah. You're spilling the tea water.

I'm sorry, but I can't be with you.

Why?! Why, Luffy?!

Because I'm with them!

No, I won't back off!

What're you talking about?

That's a person!

I've never seen clothes like these...

She's from somewhere else.

She's alive!

Are you okay?

Well... I'm not sure.

Where am I?

You're in Tequila Wolf, a country in the East Blue.

Are you cold? Do you want to come to our house?

If it won't put you out, yes, I would like to.

Hey, hustle up!

Soran! Did you go out without asking again?!

You can't do that! You hid from the officers, right?

Yes.

Who's that?

Seems like she's from somewhere else.

She was lying down in this snow.

A dr*fter?

Maybe, a wanted person.

Anyway, she wouldn't come to the place like this if she were sane.

Looks like I'm not welcomed here. I'll go.

I'll look after her.

Don't be selfish!

What would you do if the officers find out that we're giving a stranger shelter?

I'd take all the responsibility!

She's hopeless!

Where are you gonna hide her?

In my room.

In the loft?

It'll be okay for a while there.

Are you people serious? Shouldn't we turn her in before it's too late?

It's too late. She's already in our house.

I don't wanna regret it later.

Keep me out of it!

Thank you!

Don't get any ideas. She has to leave as soon as her wounds heal.

Even if she gets well, there's nothing for her in this country.

They are kind.

Yes.

Thank you.

Something smells so nice.

I didn't use any perfume.

Maybe, that's the scent of the outside world.

The outside?

I haven't left this country since I was born.

Are you a traveler? Did you come from a hot climate?

Yes, I've been traveling around on a ship but...

Is it a big ship? What kind of island did you come from?

Have you seen any beautiful flowers or birds? And...

Soran! The break is over! Hurry and get ready!

It's time to work.

You work this late at night?

We work all day and night.

You can rest.

Tell me about the outside world later.

Okay. I'll be waiting for you, Soran.

Yes.

I don't think that I can make it in time.

Oh, did I wake you?

Soran, you're so dirty!

I'm okay.

What kind of work do you do?

--We are making a bridge. --A bridge?

This country is on a bridge.

The bridge will connect many islands together.

This construction has been going on for centuries now.

That's what the officers say.

For centuries?

Tell me. Where are you from?

I'm from...

My home island no longer exists.

But I traveled many islands and oceans.

Soran?

What're these?

They're drawings of islands all throughout the world.

I've never left this place so I drew them out of my imagination.

But when I draw an island, it makes me feel like I'm visiting that island

and I can forget how difficult life is!

These are wonderful!

This is the Sky Island!

Does the island in the sky really exist?!

--Yes. --Tell me about your trip there!

All right.

Well... where should I start?

Wow, that's wonderful!

It seems like the outside world is as much fun as I thought!

Every day they push us around and work us until we're exhausted but

when I think about it, maybe making a bridge isn't so bad!

When it links to a distant island someday,

anyone can travel freely by crossing the bridge.

Then I'll travel all over the world

and draw pictures of actual islands!

That's a great dream!

Yes! So, tell me more!

Okay.

Can we join?

Of course.

The woman is in the loft.

Good job. Let's go!

Hey! Don't forget your promise to get me out of this country!

--Don't move! --W-What is this?!

--Outta my way! --We're looking for the stranger!

If you resist us, we'll k*ll you!

What's happening?!

Somebody must've told the officers! They're here for her!

What should we do?!

What do you want?

I heard that you're hiding a suspicious woman in this house.

These days, people opposed to the construction of the bridge threaten the order.

Turn her over!

We don't know a woman like that!

It's no use searching here! We're tired so leave us alone!

Watch your mouth!

Auntie!

If you don't cooperate, we have to arrest all of you and question you one by one.

You know what we do to get the information we want, right?

Captain, I found these!

What is this crap?

Islands?

I drew them! Give them back!

You drew islands?

That's amusing! How silly!

Give them back!

Tell me where the woman is.

Then you'll get your drawings back.

I don't know!

Once again, where's the woman?

I don't know!

If you cooperate, we'll get you out of here someday.

Then you can see the outside world for real.

I don't know!

One last chance!

Where is the woman?!

I don't know!

You people won't leave this place for the rest of your life anyway!

Take all of them in!

We're gonna t*rture them until they speak!

And show no mercy to the kid!

Come on, move!

Lady!

Clutch!

H-Hey, guys!

S-Stay away! P-Put your hands up!

I-I'm sorry! Forgive me! Please don't hurt me!

I got you!

It's her! I got her cornered!

Hurry! Someone! I need backup!

What're you doing? Didn't you hear him?!

Isn't she the one that you're looking for?

Just go and get her!

You're not welcome here!

Captain...

What're you doing?! Go and cover him!

Yes, sir!

I'll let you get away for now!

But I won't forget your rebellious behavior!

We don't care!

Are you all right?

Lady...

This is a country of laborers.

Pull! Pull!

The people who work here are criminals from various countries

or citizens of countries that refused to be allied with the World Government.

On your feet! Let's go!

In other word, sl*ves.

How long until the bridge is complete?

I have no clue.

It's been under construction for years!

years? For what purpose?

You don't need to know that.

You'll become one of laborers,

so all you have to worry about is making the bridge!

This islands look like a flower blooming in the ocean. It's called Bowin Islands.

Let's go Usopp Exploring Party!

Of course, I'm the leader! Usopp the king of sn*pers!

And here is my crew!

They couldn't be here due to unforeseen circumstances.

Where am I?

I wonder whether Luffy and others are alive.

They can't do anything without me.

I know that they're crying for me!

Yeah, I'm sure!

I gotta hurry to save them!

Oh, just the wind.

The crew of Usopp Exploring Party should always be on the lookout!

I'm Usopp...

How can I get off this island? And...

Hey! Is anybody here?

Don't tell me this is a deserted island!

Ugh! It's the My-Heart-Will-Stop-Beating- If-I-Don't-See-Anybody Syndrome!

Collapse!

How sad!

Hey! Isn't anybody here for real?! Stop being shy and come out!

Ah, there you are!

How're you?

You seem to be doing a little well!

--Are you gonna eat that'n? --Yeah, right!

But you saved me! Thanks, Mr. Whoever-you-are!

My name is Heracles'n!

Wow! That's a cool name!

Oh? You think so'n?

I'm Usopp! Nice meetin' you!

Is this good to eat? I've never seen a fruit like this!

It's fine'n! Usopp'n!

And my name is Heracles'n!

Yeah, OK, fine - that's cool.

It sure smells delicious...

Let's just lick it and see.

Usopp'n!

Boy! What was it?! Did that plant try to eat me?!

Of course, they're man-eating plants'n!

Man-eating?!

Where the hell am I?!

This is the Swindling Forest - Glinston!

H-H-Help me!

And my name is Hera...

Zoro arrives at an old castle,

where he runs into Perona.

Zoro wants to return to his friends, but for some reason, Perona stops him.

Around that time,

Brook is being hailed as Satan, the king of demons!

On the next episode of One Piece!

"The Friends' Whereabouts! A Princess Negativity and the King of Demons!"

I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
