Clip Edits

 * The beginning of the episode was altered a little regarding scenes.
 * Scenes from the original beginning appear after Morgan explains about the Devil's Fruit.
 * After Morgan tells about the Devil's Fruit, Luffy makes Zoro's knots tighter by mistake. In the dub, it was a repeat of Koby saying how Luffy's serious about being the Pirate King and then they showed Luffy making Zoro's knots tighter.
 * Right before we see a quick slash, the one moment of seeing Koby's frightened face is cut out.
 * The inverted colors when Koby closed his eyes was not shown.
 * Seeing Nami's reflection on the window is taken out because this is when the 4Kids commercial break begins.
 * A still of the town is shown instead of the camera going from right to left. You can't see the number of people gathered around the house where Zoro pats his stomach and smiles.
 * After Koby panics about Luffy wanting to go to the Grand Line again, a couple of scenes were left out.
 * Luffy walking away is cut out.
 * The camera moving from right to left to view the sunset is cut out.

Digital Edits

 * Helmeppo's flintlock pistol is changed to an odd spring-loaded hammer-gun. This is arguably the most well-known edit in the series among fans.
 * Morgan's clothes getting shredded by Zoro were altered as if they weren't shredded. The pieces flying away were also taken away.
 * The map Nami finds was digitally altered. The dubbed map says "Sorry!".
 * The map is more colorful in the dub. The camera is moved differently, and the red line on the map isn't shown.

Dialogue Edits

 * The Marines' punishment for saluting to pirates was changed from 3 days to 1 week.
