Episode 573

"Finally Setting Sail! Goodbye Fishman Island" is the 573th episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
The mermaids and Keimi from the Mermaid Cafe ask Madam Shirley if they can say good bye to the Straw Hats. Madam Shirley says that her prediction that Luffy will destroy Fishman Island might not happen after all since they defeated Hody and the New Fishman Pirates.

Shirahoshi meanwhile is crying and asking the Straw Hats to not go. Usopp and Chopper complains that they are going to die in the New World. The Minister of the Left gives Nami a new Log Pose with three needles so they can get to the islands in the New World. The Minister of the Left explains about the new Log Pose's features and then suddenly Luffy grabs onto Nami wanting to see the new Log Pose and she complains and says that she will tell the crew where to go but Luffy complains saying that he is the captain so he should decide where they should go. Franky gets a new haircut and they start to leave but Shirahoshi comes and ask them to pinky promise to come back and the crew does it.

The Straw Hats finally leave and the kids of the Fishman Island ask their parents if they can get a Straw Hat similar to Luffy's and Jinbe says he will get some. Luffy then remember the times when Shanks, Rayleigh, Jinbe, and [[Ace told him something important. The Straw Hats then comment about what they will do once they are in the New World.
