There once was a man named Gol D. Roger
Who was king of the pirates!
He had fame, power and wealth beyond your wildest dreams!
Before they hung him from the gallows these were the final words
he said:
"My fortune is yours for the taking! But you'll have to find it first. I left everything I owned in One Piece!"
Ever since, pirates from all over the world set sail for the Grand Line, searching for One Piece, the treasure that would make their dreams come true!"
YO!
ya-yo, ya-yo
Dreamin', don't give it up Luffy
Dreamin', don't give it up Zolo
Dreamin', don't give it up Nami
Dreamin', don't give it give it up give it up give it up give it up give it NO!
Here's how the story goes we find out
About a Treasure in the Grand Line
Theres no doubt, The pirate who's eye on it
He'll sing I'll be King of the Pirates
I'm gonna be king
Ya-yo, ya-yo ya-yo,
ho-ho!
His name is Luffy
That's Monkey D. Luffy
Gonna be king of the pirates!
He's made of rubber -how did that happen?
Yo-ho-ho he took a bite of Gum-Gum
Ya-yo, ya-yo
His name's Zolo he's just like a samurai
and a l-a-d-y Nami's not shy
Usopps' doin' that marksman thing
Sanji's cookin'
Chopper's doctorin'
Robin's readin'
Franky's pervertin'
Brook's hummin'
Ya-yo, ya-yo, yao-yo
hoo-hoo
Set sail for One Piece, it's the name of the treasure in the Grand Line!
Ya-yo, ya-yo
Set sail for One Piece!
What is this One Piece you mention?
See above. This corny rap is a very succinct summary of what you're getting into. Boy made out of rubber decides he wants to be king of the pirates, recruits a bunch of wacky people to fulfill his dream and help them accomplish their own dreams. Dreamy.
Sounds interesting. Where do I start?
The beginning is always a good place. If you're into anime, you can watch it on many free sites like hulu or onepieceofficial from the beginning to about episode thirty. They add new episodes every week or so. New episodes "air" every saturday night on onepieceofficial.com at around 10:00 Eastern. Fantastic.
If you're in more of a manga mood then you can head to your local bookstore or favorite online book site and buy them for a fair price, though the offical viz website does have a few of the chapters for free online.
Luffy vs Mihawk
Mihawk's fierce attacks forces Luffy to back away further and further from Ace.
Luffy can't attack, only thing he can imagine by doing so is to be sliced up.
Mihawk smiles, noticing Luffy's gaining experience.
Scene changes to Croc
Croc says something to the likes of "teaming up with you? don't make me laugh. Don't you mean, "please Mr Croc can I work under you?" Get lost Doflamingo!
Croc creates a massive sandstorm, blowing away both Jozu and DoFlamingo.
Buggy is caught in the sandstorm also and is blown away
Scene back to Luffy
Two prisoners attack Mihawk, and says their names but I forgot them. (<- Nja's comment)
Mihwak says the likes of "I don't remember names of fodders" and continues attacking Luffy
Luffy finds Buggy up in the sky. "Gomu Gomu no JET scapegoat!"
Switch places with Buggy, and now it's Buggy vs Mihawk
Buggy doesn't die even from getting sliced into bits, and he gets cocky and shoots a bomb at Mihawk.
Mihawk hits the bomb back at Buggy, blowing him up.
Luffy: BUGGGGYYYYYY!!! I will never forget you!!
Luffy gets back to heading to his brother, and Marco is watching him.
Marco: Hey, back him up!
Marco calls up the fifth division captain, Vista "The Sword Flower".
Mihwak vs Vista
Vista: First time to meet you, good sir Hawkeye.
Mihawk: You are the Whitebeard Pirates Fifth DIvision Captain Vista "The Sword Flower" are you not!?
Vista: Oh, you know me?
Mihawk: Of course I would....
Sengoku stops the broadcast
Sengoku (If we broadcast this, the whole world might be against us... the only thing that needs to be broadcasted after is our victory)
After that, huge army of PX shows up
End
Additional bits by Nja
Oh, and Mihawk was shaking in joy from Luffy's power.
He was thinking to himself Luffy may be the most powerful man on the sea, because he gains alliance and friends everywhere he goes, even his former enemies.
Do PXs have Haki? Otherwise someone like Crocodile could just wreck all of them without trying.
Lined with seastone, perhaps?
God help them if they ever come up with the idea of seastone bullets.
croc probably wouldn't be able to wreck them easily. Zoro can barely scratch them, and croc couldn't kill luffy, and I think zoro could cut luffy in half...
Heh, the first thing that crossed my mind when reading the new thread's title was Weird Al's "Headline News".
Although that might just be because I don't think I've ever actually heard the Pirate Rap. Or at least not more than like 10 seconds before I turned it off in horror.
GOTTA GO GOTTAA GO YO-HO
Set sail for ONNNNEEE PIECE- It's the NAME OF THE TREASURE on the GRRRRRAAANNNDDD LINNNEE
GOTTA GO... etc etc.
Dammit. Now I'm going to have to go check.
It's too late for me, I can't unhear it now.
With regards to some of this week's events...
The general feeling up to this point is that the World Gov't would be largely felled during the current war, or at least suffer a major setback in terms of world control and battle power.
Dang, rewatching One Piece is fuuuuuuuuun. I'm in Little Garden now.
Dorry and Broggy.
It really is!
You tend to enjoy the simplicity of the earlier episodes the further you get along the series, especially considering the heavyweight stuff we've been getting since Water 7.
Those episodes have an entirely different feel than the latter part of the Grand Line, in a more carefree, fun kind of way.
On another note, I think i'm gonna stay away from the net for a little while; I got a ton of shit I need to finish and extra work to get done on the side, and it's websites like this that eat away my time like nobody's business. After tonight i'm gonna do my best to be gone till next Tuesday.
Later chumps! If you light the place on fire, the number's 911.
So here's something I never understood about Luffy's origins...
How the hell did Shanks lose an arm to a lousy sea king?
I can't even imagine Sanji or Zorro losing an arm to a sea king of that size, so how did a pirate who can fight on even standing with White Beard and Mihawk do it?

Lies!
You just want to avoid posting in a thread devoted to the pirate rap :P

My assumption was that Shanks wasn't that strong yet at the time. Plus, he was focused on saving Luffy first, saving himself second (awwwww)

And my approval is the only one that counts
I guess I'll find out once and for all if our little mini community here likes or dislikes the pirate rap.
I really need to resize that second image, but not now, time for real work!
Platinum FC: 2880 3245 5111
And that AMV is the ONLY AMV one would ever need to watch, because all AMV's suck as a rule. Sail On is the one exception.
It's about fucking time.
whats wrong with you people.
Yesssssssssssssss!!!!
That meme is conditional anyways.
If post="Bink's Sake" then reply="LABOOOOOOOOOOOOON!"
I always thought it was 'Gotta go, yo-ho'.
As in 'to the Grand Line.'
Oh well, yay for thread and OP.
Although that might just be because I don't think I've ever actually heard the Pirate Rap. Or at least not more than like 10 seconds before I turned it off in horror.
Why is Luffy rubber? He ate the gum-gum fruit. He's gonna be king of the pirates. There is a treasure in the Grand Line.
There, that's what the show's all about.
I had the exact same reaction.

But given the recent reveal
"No, I think you mean 'Oh Croc, may I PLEASE serve under you?'"
And then BAM! hits 'em with a sandstorm.
Croc, you are the reigning badass in One Piece. Don't ever change.
Dorry and Broggy.
Whichever one of those had "gyagyagyagya" as his laugh is my favorite laugh in the series. That arc also has a lot of manly Usopp tears.
It really is!

Sogeking begs to differ
Well, yeah, and I'm on a Boat is pretty good too. But sail on is the best, and only the best belongs with the pirate rap.
I will never admit that anything produced by 4kid's Garage band wannabes is good.
NEVER.
:winky:
As did I.
