This 2-hour special program is a continuation of the remastered versions of the famous arcs "Nami's Chapter" and "Luffy's Chapter" from the original work. It is the third television special of "ONE PIECE" broadcast in the "Saturday PREMIUM" time slot.
As for the famous original arcs selected for this special, they are "Water 7" and the "Enies Lobby Arc," which have been remastered into this special edition. Centered around the story of the Straw Hat Pirates' other companion, the Going Merry—its encounter and farewell—it depicts a brand-new tale of friendship. The plot differs somewhat from the original work, and this special is also connected to the short film included with the movie "ONE PIECE FILM Z."
The BD/DVD version will be released in Japan on November 29, 2013.
The story begins when Brook asks about the origin of Mini Merry II. Usopp then recalls that since Brook had not yet joined the crew at the time, he was unaware of the Going Merry's existence, and so he tells the story of the Going Merry. Back when they sent the Going Merry to Water 7 for repairs, the shipwrights concluded that the ship was too damaged to sail any further, leading to a fierce fight between Usopp and Luffy. Later, to rescue Robin, who had been captured by the World Government, the crew rushed to Enies Lobby to stop her from entering the Tower of Justice. However, they were trapped by the "Buster Call" initiated by Spandam, and just when there seemed to be no escape, it was their other companion, the Going Merry, that came to save them~~
