Shirahoshi's Tears! Luffy Finally Shows up! is the 553rd episode in the ninth season of One Piece. In the episode, Luffy finally arrives in Fish-Man Island, much to the relief of the struggling Straw Hat pirates. The crew is in desperate need of Luffy's strength and leadership as they try to rescue the kidnapped mermaid princess, Shirahoshi.
The episode begins with Jinbe, the fish-man, reporting to King Neptune that the princess has been kidnapped by Hody Jones and his gang. The king immediately orders the royal guards to search for Shirahoshi, but to their dismay, they are unable to find her. Meanwhile, the rest of the Straw Hat pirates are trying to escape from their captors, the Fish-Man Island army, with the help of the cyborg, Franky.
Luffy, who had gone missing since their arrival, is seen wandering on the island, finally realizing that he is lost. He accidentally bumps into a giant octopus, who offers to give him a lift to the palace on his back. Luffy happily takes the offer, unaware of the danger lurking ahead.
As they move forward, Luffy finally spots the palace and jumps off the octopus, thanking him for his help. He climbs up the palace wall and peeks inside, only to see Shirahoshi trapped in a giant bubble. Luffy realizes that he needs to help her but quickly realizes that there is no way to get inside the palace as it is heavily guarded by Hody Jones and his army.
Meanwhile, the Straw Hat pirates are facing a tough time escaping from the Fish-Man Island army. They are outnumbered and overpowered, but they refuse to give up. Franky, using his cyborg strength, manages to break free from his chains and starts to fight back. The rest of the Straw Hats join him, and they start to take down the army one by one.
Back at the palace, Luffy is determined to save Shirahoshi. He tries various methods to break the bubble but fails each time. He realizes that he cannot do this alone and needs his crew's help. He quickly makes a plan and sets out to find his crew.
Finally, Luffy spots his crew battling the Fish-Man Island army. He rushes to their aid and, with his strength, turns the tide of the battle. The Straw Hats are happy to see Luffy, and they quickly tell him about the princess's predicament. Luffy, without wasting any time, takes charge and heads towards the palace.
At the palace, Luffy manages to break the bubble using his Gomu Gomu no Pistol technique. He frees Shirahoshi and is delighted to see her safe. However, Hody Jones and his gang appear before them. Luffy, with his crew by his side, is ready to take on Hody and his army.
The episode ends with a fierce battle between Luffy's crew and Hody Jones's army. Luffy, using his strength and determination, manages to defeat Hody Jones, much to the relief of the mermaids and everyone on the island.
