What is “One Piece” about?
Wealth, fame and power. One man had obtained everything in this world and he was the ‘Pirate King’, Gold Roger. But, before he died, his last words inspired the planet to venture out to sea: “My treasure? If they want it, it’s theirs. I have hidden everything in that place.”
Thus began what is known as the Great Age of Piracy, which launched hundreds of pirates into the sea to find the great One Piece treasure.
