One Piece: Season 1, Second Voyage

Product Description The saga continues...!As the Straw Hat Pirates find themselves in a battle between good and evil, between right and wrong, the gratitude of those involved lands Luffy with a new crewmate and a ship of his own – The Going Merry! Ready for action and adventure, the fearless buccaneers set sail… In search of a cook? But as a misplaced cannonball leads to a sea-faring stand-off, the Straw Hats might have ordered more than they can stomach… The good news: The Going Merry’s found a cook! The bad news: He has no intention of joining the crew! Uncut, unedited, and featuring an all new FUNimation dub! Amazon.com As the popular comedy-adventure One Piece continues, Monkey D. Luffy must face some immediate problems before he can pursue his dream of becoming King of the Pirates. His first obstacle is Captain Kuro of the Black Cat Pirates, who's been posing as the butler of lonely heiress Kaya. Luffy can barely contain his contempt for a captain who mistreats his crew, and uses his Gum Gum powers to clobber Kuro. He invites Usopp, the needle-nosed storyteller, to join his crew. Kaya presents Luffy with the Going Merry, a new caravel with an appropriately goofy figurehead. When a friend of Zoro's shows up suffering from scurvy, Luffy realizes a well-run pirate ship needs a cook and heads to the floating restaurant Baratie. Its proprietor is former pirate Red Foot Zeff, who spent a year sailing the Main Line--which Luffy must conquer to realize his dream. Complications arise when Commodore Don Krieg and master swordsman Hawk-Eye Mihawk arrive: Krieg wants Zeff's notes from his Main Line voyage and Mihawk wants to finish destroying Krieg's fleet. The Straw Hat Pirates find themselves caught in the middle, with no means of making a getaway, as navigator Nami steals the Going Merryto try her hand at bounty hunting. Second Voyage, which encompasses the second half of the first season of One Piece, offers more nutty adventures, bizarre characters, and slapstick comedy. The only serious storytelling occurs in flashbacks, when the viewer learns about the origin of Zoro's Three Sword Style, Usopp's unhappy boyhood, and sous-chef Sanji's bond with Zeff.
