One Piece Episode 53

Summary:

Miraculously saved from death by an unnatural green gust and lightning to Buggy, the Straw Hats rush out of Loguetown. Then Smoker grabs Buggy and Alvida and gets on the Dune Buggy to follow Luffy. Meanwhile, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji encounter Tashigi, whom Zoro battles and quickly defeats. Then Smoker catches up and tells Luffy that if he beats him, he can go to the Grand Line. Just as Smoker is about to finish Luffy off, he is saved by a mysterious man named Dragon. And a green gust of wind lets Buggy and Alvida escape. Then Luffy and company off and heading to the Grand Line! Smoker, Tashigi, Alvida and Buggy also decide to go to the Grand Line!

Having narrowly escaped death, Luffy, Zoro and Sanji head to the Going Merry, but Buggy and Alvida chase after them. Before the duo can take off, they are captured by marines, but the duo later escape. When Tashigi appears and challenges Zoro to a duel for lying to her, Zoro points out that he didn’t lie, he just didn’t tell her. Nevertheless, Zoro and Tashigi clash swords.

Meanwhile, Nami and Usopp reach the Going Merry as Mohji was about to burn it. Before Mohji can properly fight Nami, the marines catch up and shoot Mohji. Nami and Usopp took this opportunity to board the Going Merry and set sail.

At the same time, Luffy and Sanji run into Smoker, who plans to capture Luffy. Sanji continues as Luffy and Smoker fight. However, Luffy’s efforts to defeat Smoker are thwarted and Smoker seemingly defeats him, but a mysterious figure stops Smoker and releases a powerful gust of wind, giving Luffy time to escape. As Zoro also flees, Sanji makes it to shore, but is surrounded by marines. Afterwards, Usopp uncharacteristically risks his life by diving into the sea, shooting down the marines with a slingshot, and finally swimming to Sanji. Luffy and Zoro catch up. Luffy then uses his Gomu Gomu rocket to propel Sanji, Usopp, and Zoro into the Going Merry.

Smoker, Tashigi, Buggy and Alvida decide to chase them to the Grand Line as they gather in different teams. The Straw Hat crew are excited to be going to the Grand Line as they all say their vows before setting sail.
