Summary
Join Monkey D. Luffy and his swashbuckling crew in their search for the
ultimate treasure, the One Piece!
As a child, Monkey D. Luffy dreamed of
becoming King of the Pirates. But his life changed when he accidentally ate the
Gum-Gum Fruit, an enchanted Devil Fruit that gave him the ability to stretch
like rubber. Its only drawback? He’ll never be able to swim gain—a
serious handicap for an aspiring sea dog! Years later, Luffy sets off on his
quest to find the “One Piece,” said to be the greatest treasure in
the world...
Luffy and his crew befriend some of the exotic mer-people on
Fish-Man Island, a beautiful and dangerous underwater civilization. They learn
that while some on the island are working toward a better relationship with
humans, the Fish-Man Pirates are attempting to grasp ultimate power. Luffy and
the Straw Hat Crew step into battle once again!
