Fureta yubi sameta KIZUNA ni
My fingers touched the cool bond
Kuzure yuku kokoro no sukima
In the crevice of my crumbling heart
Samayou KARADA wow...
My body wanders whoa...
KATACHI naku yami e to kieru
Disappearing into the shapeless darkness
Iro aseta omoi wa tooku
My faded thoughts are distant
Sagasu no wa jinki rao
What I search for is a mirage
"Mirai o tooku ni kazashiteru..."
"I'm holding the future far away overhead..."
Kirameita sekai tooi kiwaku wa
In a world that sparkled, my distant memory
Miageta sora yume o yobi okosu
Is calling my dreams to mind in the sky that I looked up at
Hateshinai yaro ni deau keshiki wa
In the scenery of us meeting on a ceaseless night
Sugita hibi no kotae mo miezu
I can't even see the end of the days that we spent
Konna ni mo tooku hanareteite mo
Even if we're separated so far apart
Terasu hikari KIMI ni tadori tsuku
The illuminating light makes its way to you
Kiseki wa kanau hazu
The miracle should come true
What? The ferry's not coming?
Yeah, they're running every other day now. The next one's tomorrow.
I thought they ran every day.
They don't have enough ships to keep that up
Several of them have sunk in the seas around here.
Sunk?
In an accident?
The pirates did it!
The pirates are sinking the ships!
Pirates?
You again?!
Those lies are gonna earn you a beating!
It's true! The pirates did it!
That nonsense again?!
Run!
Those damn brats! They're always spouting that tripe!
Then it was an accident?
Yeah.
There's a reef out there, you see.
Great hulking rocks stick out of the sea, just waiting to punch a hole into something.
They probably just drifted into it at night.
There were no survivors.
Kids these days, I swear!
Um, I'm in a bit of a hurry, so are there any other ships due?
Sorry, tomorrow's ferry's the first.
Aw, I guess I'm stuck here for the night.
[The Mysterious Ghost Ship]
Yeah, we've got a room open.
We're both a restaurant and lodge, so I'll cut you a deal on some grub
Thank you so much.
Second floor's the lodge. Pick any room you like.
Fruit off the port bow! Set a course!
That hurt, old man!
Don't lay a finger on my food!
We pirates plunder at our discretion!
Pirates?
Shut up you stupid kid.
I don't want to hear it from a lubberly sailor!
Now!
Watch your back!
Those brats!
Just who are they?
Well, the cheeky ring leader's my son.
He's in that rebellious phase, wanting to be a pirate to spite his old man.
Rebellious phase...
300...
301...
302...
303...
304...
I'd better find my master, and fast!
Ow, that stings!
I hear this stuff's good for bruises.
I thought we'd finally be able to nick something from my dad.
I guess we're just not strong enough on our own.
Maybe we need some new members.
New members?
We can't have anyone younger than us.
We'd end up having to look after them.
And if they're too old, they won't listen to us at all.
And if they're not strong they won't be worth anything at all.
And we pirates should all be guys, too
Is there anyone who's like that?
Hey guys, how about him?
405...
406...
He's not a kid...
But he's not an adult.
He's definitely strong.
And he's a guy!
411...
412...
413...
414...
415...
416...
Tim?
Tim, where are you?
Over here!
Tim!
What are you up to?
Archie the Whirl pool!
Bob the Hurricane!
Cheetah the Stomach!
Dan the Calculator!
And Eagle-Eyes Eric.
Together we're the Abochidae Pirate Corps!
That's who!
Abochidae?
They just took the first syllable from each of their names...
How lame...
And what's your name?
Allen.
Rejoice, Allen, for you have been given the opportunity to take our entry exam!
You have!
Entry exam?
If you complete the tests that we are about to administer, you'll be allowed to join our group!
How about it?
Um, I'm awfully busy, so I'm afraid I'll have to decline.
If you want this little guy back, you're gonna have to take the test!
I'm sorry, but...
What? He's vanished!
I haven't the patience for your little games.
When did he-
Will you give Tim back to me, please?
Bob!
I've got him!
I'm Bob the Hurricane! If you think you can catch up to me, you're dead wrong!
Will you give him back?
How did he catch up with me, the town's fastest runner?
Please?
Cheetah, pass!
They call me Cheetah the Stomach!
If you want this back, you'll have to beat me in an eating contest!
Ready, start!
What do you think of that?
Can you match my pa-
Will you give him back now?
N-No way!
Dan!
I'm Dan the Calculator!
If you can solve this math problem faster than me, I'll give it up!
Um, 58 plus 25 is...
83.
What? Already?!
Eric!
I'm Eagle-Eyes Eric. If you can beat me at a staring contest, I'll give him back.
All right, then.
What a silly face! Archie, pass!
You've done well to pass all of our tests.
Though I had no intention of doing so..
But if you can't beat me, Archie the Whirl pool, you'll never be allowed into our group
The first one to that rock and back wins.
Let's go..
Start!
Well, I've played along this far. Nothing for it, I suppose.
How's that?
You...
Let's finish this!
Damn it!
Pick up the pace! Archie!
Archie! Archie!
I'm fine.
Did I do something wrong?
I never thought Archie the Whirl pool would lose!
Nope, Archie drowned on purpose.
What?!
Hey!
He was testing whether or not I'd return to save him.
Your leader never would have lost otherwise.
Th-That's right!
That was it!
I knew it!
You pass, and we accept your application.
Hooray, a new member!
No, I didn't-
Now for the welcoming party!
Yeah!
Don't think for a second that I'm in your debt.
I just happened to have a bad day.
Next time, we'll have it out fair and square.
Uh, right...
How'bout it? Delicious, isn't it?
Um, well, it was obviously made by a man's hand...
Man's hand, my ass!
He makes a bunch of stuff, but it all sucks!
What was that?!
You're a sailor! You should just sail, damn it!
Don't like it? Don't eat it!
Then I'm done!
What was that?
Nothing!
He seems to like you.
Sorry if he bothers you.
N-No..
I suppose he inherited my boorishness, at least dragging you into his stupid pirate game.
If only his mother were alive, he'd be able to live a more normal life.
You were a sailor then, Mr. Jed?
Yeah, I went all around the world stalking my prey.
It was wonderful, putting my life on the line for the next big catch.
Why did you quit?
It was just time to move on.
I thought that a new career might be nice.
Father and child...
Could it be that the real reason Mr. Jed quit was...
You're late!
This cave is our pirate corps' secret base.
There you are, Archie, Allen.
Surprised?
We're building a ship here.
We're gonna go out to sea!
Yeah, and get those pirates!
Pirates?
We saw some real pirates.
That night, we came here to see the ferry.
You can see the ships come in here before they come into view from the port.
It usually comes in during the afternoon,
but they were waiting for a storm to pass so it was night by the time they got here.
The wind blew strong and sudden, and just then...
We tried to tell the grown-ups.
But nobody believed us.
So we're gonna go out in our ship and take those pirates down!
That's pretty detailed, for a make-believe game...
We're serious!
Allen, come fight with us!
We're counting on you, Allen.
Allen!
Could there really be something...
But...
Fighting pirates is all well and good, but you'll cause your father undue worry.
Don't talk about my dad!
Archie...
My stupid, land lubber dad...
I don't want anyone who'd take my dad's side as one of my pirates!
Get out!
Archie...
Get out!
If you're ever around here again, come on by.
Will do
So sorry that Archie didn't see fit to see you off,
even though you spent all day with him yesterday.
Well, I couldn't help him...
Hmm?
Or rather, thank you so much.
It's done!
Our ship is finally done!
Yay!
Abochidae Pirate Corps, cast off!
Hooray!
Yes,it's Allen.
I'm a day late, but I'll be setting off on the ferry that's about to come into port.
I'm glad to hear from you.
There have been a lot of passenger ships going missing in those waters.
An ocean liner disappeared just last night.
Passenger ships?
Could it be...
Get back here!
Mr. Jed!
Archie!
Archie, your dad looks pissed.
Who cares? Let him be pissed.
There are Akuma on that ship!
What's that?
It's the pirate ship!
What should we do?
Destroy it, of course!
Do you have a boat?
Archie's in danger!
Archie?
The ferry's under attack!
Hurry, lend me your boat!
What happened?
We've run a ground on the reefs! We can't move!
Die, die, die!
This is bad! The ferry!
Now for our secret weapon!
Ready and fire!
Who's the man now? Fireworks up your ass!
Ooh, that scared me!
Damn kids!
Allen!
Dad!
Allen, what's with the hand?
I'll explain later.
I'll take care of the ship you get the kids out!
An exorcist?
So you've been attacking the ships around here!
That's right!
I can kill hundreds in a single go, and level up in an instant!
I won't let you!
I can't see it!
Where is he?
Don't tell me... is the ship itself an Akuma?!
Right you are!
Damn it, almost got him!
But what do you think of this?
Fire!
As I thought! Fire at will!
Hurry!
We've got to help Allen!
Archie!
Dad!
Dad?
Archie!
Dad, don't die!
I won't!
I have to take care of you.
I didn't realise your mom was sick till it was too late.
I was so afraid that I'd lose you, too
That's why I quit sailing.
I decided to stay with you until you had grown up
I promised your mom that I'd protect you.
Dad...
But you loved sailing so much...
When you got me this telescope for my birthday, I decided to carry on your work.
I felt betrayed when I heard you'd quit sailing' cause you were scared.
You did it for me, though...
Dad...
Archie!
Allen!
What's the matter? That all you got?
The ferry's not gonna be able to take this much longer.
I have to attack the Akuma itself!
Allen's fighting as hard as he can! We've gotta join in!
Yeah.
To protect our families.
And our friends.
And everything we hold dear!
The ship's center is its bridge.
Aim for that!
Right!
Fire!
Blech, just a smoke bomb?
I was afraid it-
Oh shit!
We did it!
Three days to fix the ship and we're on our way at last.
Hey!
Allen!
See you!
Bye, bye!
Mr. Jed started sailing again and Archie's group became his apprentices.
Well then, on to meet up with Lenalee and find my master!
Kumo no sukima kobereru
A dazzling light is coming from
mabushii hodo no hikari ni
the opening of the clouds,
yo wa sa misukasaresou de
as if it sees through my weakness.
Fuini te o kazashita
I held my hands up over my head to protect myself.
Urayamu dake de itsumo
When I was envious,
akirameta furi o shita
I always pretended to give up.
Omoi ga abarer u kara
My feelings are too vehement,
mata boku o mayoimasen
so I won't lose my way once again.
Kuyashiku kara tte
Even if I am frustrated,
hito wa daremo minna
it must be the same for everybody.
Sono ashi de susumu shikanai da yo
I have no choice but to advance on my own.
Samayotte nayande sonna jibun mo
Even if I am puzzled and troubled,
te suru mirai wa konna katachi darou
it's how we make progress.
Kowashite shimae jama suru fuan o
I will break down this anxiety that hinders me.
Kudaite shimae nigiri shimeta te de
I will smash it with my hand tightly clenched.
Sono itami kizande
I will carve this pain,
sokka tobikome
and jump over it,
owarinaki yume no tsudzuki e
until I can grasp this endless dream.
