Screen 1 — Returning to Water 7
The Straw Hat Pirates sail back into Water 7 worn out, bruised, and mentally drained — but alive.
They've done the impossible:
• defeated CP9
• rescued Robin
• escaped a Buster Call
• and openly declared war on the World Government
To the world, they're now a threat.
To Water 7, they're heroes.
Galley-La workers cheer as the Rocketman brings them into the station.
Franky Family members cry loudly, tackling everyone in hugs.
Iceburg nods with a rare smile.
Robin steps off the train, finally free.
Usopp returns quietly, unsure how to face the others.
Franky starts planning his new dream ship.
Meanwhile, the crew's exhaustion finally hits.
Sanji limps into the Galley-La infirmary.
Zoro falls asleep standing upright.
Chopper rushes around, treating everyone at once.
Nami sits near Robin, holding her hand with relief.
Luffy collapses on the grass, staring at the sky.
Luffy:
"We did it… Robin's really safe."
Robin smiles gently.
Robin:
"Thanks to all of you."
Amid the noise and chaos of celebration…
Sans is already asleep.
He's lying on a bench outside the shipyard, hands tucked into his hoodie pockets, snoring lightly while Papyrus tries to put a blanket over him.
Papyrus:
"BROTHER! YOU CAN'T JUST FALL ASLEEP ANYWHERE!
WE ARE HEROES RETURNING HOME!"
Sans whispers through his sleep.
Sans:
"yeah… heroes… wake me up later…"
The crew laughs softly.
For the first time in a long while, things feel calm.
But Water 7 still has one more surprise waiting —
a new ship that will carry them into the next era of their journey.
Screen 2 — The Birth of the Thousand Sunny
After the loss of the Going Merry, the Straw Hats gather in Water 7, still grieving — but ready to move forward.
Franky, determined to honor Merry's memory and repay the crew for saving him, takes on the responsibility of building their next ship.
Using Adam Wood, one of the strongest and most precious materials in the world, Franky begins his masterpiece.
Every hammer strike echoes through the shipyard.
Every beam is placed with precision and pride.
Every design choice carries meaning.
Franky works day and night, fueled by passion and the dream of creating a ship that could sail to the end of the world.
Papyrus constantly cheers him on.
Papyrus:
"FRANKY! YOU ARE A TRUE ARTIST OF SHIP-BUILDING! YOUR BONES MUST BE MADE OF PRIDE!"
Franky laughs.
Franky:
"SUPER thanks, tall skeleton!"
Sans watches quietly from the corner, sipping soda.
Sans:
"looks good. merry would've liked it."
---
The Thousand Sunny
At last, the ship is complete.
The Straw Hats stand in awe as Franky unveils it.
A majestic lion figurehead.
Bright sails.
A gleaming new hull.
A deck wide enough for everyone to relax.
Inside:
• A lawn deck for training and lounging
• An aquarium bar with sunlight streaming through blue water
• A massive soldier dock system for special vehicles
• The Mini Merry II, a tiny submersible boat
• A library, workshop, bedroom suites — everything a crew could need
Nami's eyes shine.
Nami:
"It's… beautiful."
Chopper spins in circles.
Chopper:
"I-It's amazing!"
Sanji whistles.
Sanji:
"A real dream ship."
Robin touches the railing gently.
Robin:
"A ship built with love."
Zoro smirks.
Zoro:
"Feels strong."
Luffy runs up the figurehead with a giant grin.
Luffy:
"This is our ship! Our new ship!"
Franky crosses his arms proudly.
Franky:
"With this, you can sail anywhere — even to the end of the Grand Line!"
Papyrus salutes dramatically.
Papyrus:
"WELCOME, THOUSAND SUNNY! AN HONOR TO MEET OUR NEW FRIEND!"
Sans places a hand on the railing.
Sans:
"hey, sunny. take care of us, okay?"
The ship creaks softly, almost as if answering.
---
A Rebirth
When the Thousand Sunny slips into the water, the sun shines across her hull like a blessing.
For the Straw Hats, this moment feels like a rebirth.
They've suffered loss.
They've regained hope.
They've saved a friend.
They've grown stronger.
Now, aboard a ship built from determination and love, they're ready for the next chapter of their adventure.
Luffy throws his fist into the air.
Luffy:
"LET'S SET SAIL!"
The Thousand Sunny glides forward, carrying the Straw Hat crew into a new era — together.
Screen 3 — The Arrival of Garp
Just as the Straw Hats admire the Thousand Sunny, cannon alarms echo across Water 7.
Marine ships surround the island — dozens of them.
Zoro:
"Tch… Already?"
Sanji:
"We just got back!"
Nami:
"No way… the Marines tracked us this fast?"
Before anyone can panic, one Marine ship breaks formation and sails straight into Iceburg's dockyard at full speed.
A massive man jumps off the deck — landing so hard the ground cracks.
Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp.
Garp strides straight toward Luffy.
Garp:
"LUFFY!!"
Luffy:
"Huh? Oh—"
WHAM.
Garp punches Luffy in the head so hard the whole dock shakes.
Garp:
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU BECAME A BIG-SHOT PIRATE, YOU IDIOT GRANDSON?!"
Everyone freezes.
Zoro:
"…Grandson?"
Sanji:
"No way."
Usopp:
"WHAT?!"
Chopper:
"H-His WHAT?!"
Papyrus almost faints.
Papyrus:
"THE MARINE HERO IS RELATED TO OUR CAPTAIN!? THIS WORLD IS SO CONFUSING!!"
Sans stares silently, hoodie up, eye half-closed.
Sans:
"…yeah, didn't see that one coming."
Garp turns to the stunned crew.
Garp:
"That's right! I'm his grandfather!"
The entire dock erupts in disbelief.
Luffy stands up, rubbing his head.
Luffy:
"Yeah. He's my grandpa."
Nami:
"And you just… casually mention that NOW?!"
Robin covers her mouth, trying not to laugh.
Franky is speechless.
---
Who Is Garp?
As the shock settles, Garp introduces himself properly:
Hero of the Marines
The man who cornered Roger countless times
A living legend
He trained Luffy and Ace as kids — in his own… extreme way.
Sanji whispers:
Sanji:
"No wonder Luffy turned out like that."
Zoro nods.
Zoro:
"Fits the family."
Sans sighs.
Sans:
"yeah. explains a lot about the kid."
Papyrus nods dramatically.
Papyrus:
"THAT FAMILY BLOODLINE IS ANOTHER LEVEL!"
---
Koby and Helmeppo Arrive
Two figures run up behind Garp — recognizable faces.
Koby:
"Luffy! It's been so long!"
Luffy grins.
Luffy:
"KOBY! You got taller!"
Helmeppo bows politely.
Helmeppo:
"Hello, Straw Hats. It's good to see you again."
Both have changed drastically:
now trained by Garp
wearing Marine uniforms
stronger, sharper, disciplined
Koby beams with excitement.
Koby:
"I'm getting closer to my dream — to become an admiral!"
Luffy laughs proudly.
Luffy:
"That's awesome!"
Sans nods, impressed.
Sans:
"nice job, kid. keep going."
Papyrus salutes.
Papyrus:
"A TRUE HERO IN THE MAKING! YOU HAVE MY BONE-APPROVAL!"
Koby blushes, overwhelmed.
---
Luffy and Koby shake hands —
two people on opposite sides of the law,
but still genuine friends.
The reunion brings warmth to Water 7…
But a storm is waiting on the horizon.
Screen 4 — Franky Joins the Crew / Usopp Returns
Water 7 fills with laughter and chaos as the Straw Hats finish preparing the Thousand Sunny for departure.
---
Franky Joins the Crew
Luffy naturally invites Franky to join the crew as their shipwright.
Luffy:
"Franky, come with us! Join my crew!"
Franky crosses his arms.
Franky:
"NO WAY! I've got a life here! I'm staying in Water 7!"
But the Franky Family and Galley-La workers already have a plan.
Suddenly—
Paulie:
"NOW, BOYS! TAKE IT!"
They yank off Franky's underwear and sprint away cheering.
Franky:
"HEY!!! GIVE THAT BACK!!!"
He chases them across the city completely naked, shouting after them.
Citizens scream, faint, or run for cover.
Papyrus nearly falls over.
Papyrus:
"THAT IS NOT HOW YOU PERSUADE SOMEONE TO JOIN A CREW!"
Sans stands there calmly, unfazed.
Sans:
"heh. effective though."
Eventually, Franky skids to a stop in front of Iceburg and the Straw Hats, panting.
Iceburg smirks.
Iceburg:
"Maybe it's time to sail, Franky."
Franky looks around at the laughing workers, the sent-off cheers, and the Sunny waiting in the harbor.
Franky:
"…Fine. I'll join you idiots."
The Straw Hats cheer.
Luffy:
"YES! WE GOT A SHIPWRIGHT!"
Robin smiles warmly.
Robin:
"Welcome aboard, Franky."
Sans salutes casually.
Sans:
"glad to have you, cyborg dude."
Papyrus gasps excitedly.
Papyrus:
"A SUPER MUSCULAR SHIPWRIGHT! OUR CREW IS PERFECT NOW!"
Franky strikes his iconic pose.
Franky:
"SUUUUUPER!!!"
---
Usopp's Return
But something is still missing.
Usopp watches from behind a building, heart pounding.
Usopp (thinking):
"I messed up… but I want to come back… I want to sail with them!"
Finally, he steps out onto the dock and drops to his knees.
Usopp:
"Luffy… I'm sorry!
Please… I want to sail with you again!"
The crew stares — unsure if they should cry or laugh.
Luffy smiles softly.
Luffy:
"Of course you can."
Usopp's chin wobbles.
Usopp:
"R-Really!?"
Luffy nods.
Luffy:
"Yeah. You're our sharpshooter."
Zoro smirks.
Sanji rolls his eyes.
Chopper cries.
Nami wipes her eyes.
Papyrus claps loudly.
Papyrus:
"WELCOME BACK, USOPP! THE GREAT PAPYRUS MISSED YOU DEARLY!"
Sans pats Usopp's shoulder.
Sans:
"don't disappear again, okay?"
Usopp nods quickly, crying dramatically.
Usopp:
"I WON'T!! EVER!!"
The entire crew laughs.
For the first time since Water 7 began…
The Straw Hats feel complete again.
Screen 5 — Leaving Water 7 (With One Last Garp Disaster)
With the Thousand Sunny stocked and the crew reunited, the Straw Hats prepare to leave Water 7 at last.
Luffy waves wildly at the crowd.
Luffy:
"BYE EVERYONE! THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!"
Papyrus strikes a dramatic pose.
Papyrus:
"FAREWELL, WATER 7! YOUR ARCHITECTURE SHALL LIVE IN MY BONES FOREVER!"
Franky flexes proudly.
Franky:
"SET SAIL, BROS!"
The Sunny begins drifting away from the docks…
When suddenly—
BOOM!
A massive cannonball arcs across the sky, fired from a Marine ship in the distance.
Garp's ship.
Garp:
"IF YOU THINK YOU'RE LEAVING WITHOUT SAYING GOODBYE TO YOUR GRANDPA, YOU'RE WRONG, LUFFY!!"
Sanji:
"WHY IS HE STILL TRYING TO HIT US?!"
Zoro:
"Tch. That old man doesn't miss."
The cannonball is bigger than normal—
Luffy accidentally made Garp mad again by yelling:
Luffy:
"I'M STILL NOT BECOMING A MARINE!"
Garp took that personally.
Garp:
"BRAT!! TAKE THIS PARTING PRESENT!"
Another huge cannonball launches straight at the Sunny, spinning with enough force to sink a small island.
Nami panics.
Nami:
"WE'RE GOING TO GET HIT—!!"
Before the crew can react—
Sans steps forward.
Hands in his pockets.
Eye glowing softly.
He summons a large Gaster Blaster above the deck.
Sans:
"…guess i'll handle this one."
The cannonball streaks toward them—
FWOOOM!
The blaster fires a focused beam, hitting the cannonball midair and sending it exploding safely over the ocean.
Papyrus cheers.
Papyrus:
"BROTHER! EXCELLENT BLASTER AIM!"
Franky whistles.
Franky:
"SUPER clean shot!"
Garp stands on the Marine ship, jaw dropping.
Garp:
"WHAT KIND OF SKELETON IS THAT?!"
Luffy laughs.
Luffy:
"That's Sans! He's super strong!"
Garp yells across the water.
Garp:
"KEEP THAT SKELETON OUT OF TROUBLE, YOU IDIOT GRANDSON!"
Sans waves lazily.
Sans:
"no promises."
The Thousand Sunny sails proudly into open waters, the crew energized, united, and stronger than ever.
Screen 6 — New Bounties Revealed
Just as the Thousand Sunny leaves Water 7, a Marine seagull drops newspapers across the deck.
Nami picks one up, eyes widening.
Nami:
"Guys… our new bounties just came out!"
The entire crew crowds around her.
Luffy grins as wide as possible.
Luffy:
"YEAH! New poster!"
Sanji lights a cigarette.
Sanji:
"Let's see how famous we are now."
Zoro smirks.
Zoro:
"Tch. As long as it's higher than the cook's."
Robin laughs softly.
Papyrus bounces up and down.
Papyrus:
"SHOW MINE!! SHOW MINE!! I BET IT'S AMAZING!!"
Sans yawns.
Sans:
"yeah, let's get this over with."

Franky pats him on the back.
Franky:
"That bounty is SUPER stylish!"
Chopper stares at Papyrus's poster.
Chopper:
"I-I think I'm scared of you now…"
Sans smirks.
Sans:
"nice going, bro. almost hit triple digits."
Papyrus points at Sans's poster dramatically.
Papyrus:
"AND YOU GOT TWO HUNDRED MILLION!! WE ARE AN UNSTOPPABLE DUO!"
---
The Crew Reacts
The Straw Hats celebrate their rising fame.
Robin:
"We're definitely being watched now."
Nami:
"Yeah, and every bounty hunter in the sea will chase us."
Luffy raises his fist.
Luffy:
"GOOD! THAT MAKES ADVENTURE MORE FUN!"
Sans leans against the Sunny's railing.
Sans:
"welp. guess it's official…
the world really wants us now."
Papyrus throws his arms wide to the sky.
Papyrus:
"THE GREAT PAPYRUS ACCEPTS ALL CHALLENGERS!"
The Thousand Sunny sails deeper into the Grand Line,
their new bounties spreading across the world.
Their next destination is unknown…
But their legend only grows.
