The Pirates are Coming

"The Pirates are Coming" is the fourth episode of the One Piece live-action series.

Short Summary
Luffy, Zoro, and Nami fight their way through Kaya's mansion, which has now become a prison. Usopp enlists the help of Koby, Helmeppo and the Marines. Luffy finally gets the ship of his dreams as Garp closes in.

Long Summary
Kuro, Sham and Buchi find Luffy in the kitchen, who had fallen asleep in the kitchen after drinking the soup Buchi had poisoned.

Usopp leads Koby and Helmeppo to Kaya's mansion to accuse Klahadore of being a pirate. However, without any evidence to substantiate Usopp's claims, Koby cannot arrest Klahadore. However, Klahadore hands an unconscious Luffy over to them. After midnight has struck and Kaya has now turned of age, he orders Sham and Buchi to kill her.

Usopp arrives at Kaya's bedroom to warn her about Klahadore, but she refuses to believe him. Nami arrives to prove his claims just as Kuro places the house on security lockdown, barring the windows. Kuro approaches Kaya's bedroom, attempting to kill her with his Cat Claws.

Zoro wakes up in the bottom of the well, where he remembers his childhood. As a trainee at Shimotsuki Village, he was able to defeat all people in his town except for the master's daughter, Kuina. After being defeated once again by Kuina using steel blades, he made a promise with her to train harder so eventually one of them will become the world's greatest swordsman. Unfortunately, Kuina tragically died in an accident, and to honor his promise with her, Zoro became determined to become the world's greatest swordsman. At her funeral, Kuina's father entrusted him with her prized heirloom katana, the Wado Ichimonji.

In the present day, Zoro climbs out of the well and rescues Luffy from Koby and Helmeppo. Together, they return to the mansion; while Zoro battles Sham and Buchi in the foyer, Luffy battles Kuro. Kuro's Stealth Foot attacks allow him to evade Luffy's attacks, allowing him to attack Luffy covertly. However, after Luffy listens to Kuro's movements, he manages to punch Kuro down. After Luffy restrains his body, he defeats Kuro with Gum Gum Bell, knocking him out the mansion window.

As a gesture of gratitude for the Straw Hats' help, Kaya gifts them the caravel Luffy wanted, and Luffy names it the Going Merry in honor of Merry. Also accepting Usopp as a new permanent member of the crew, they bid farewell to Kaya before they leave. Meanwhile, Koby and Helmeppo return to Garp, reporting his failures to capture Luffy. Garp, spotting the Going Merry with Luffy's Jolly Roger, attacks the ship. Luffy, spotting the assailant with a spyglass, recognizes Garp as his grandfather.
