Nami treats her injuries and rushes to Arlong Park, knowing that weeping alone won’t change anything. Arlong, with just a few droplets of water projected like bullets, defeats the already worn-out Zoro and Sanji. Meanwhile, Nejiko is underwater, pumping air into Luffy’s lungs to help him breathe. Nami’s sudden appearance shocks everyone.
Nami challenges Arlong to a fight, determined to kill him. Arlong, however, laughs evilly and offers her a deal: become the cartographer of his ship, and he will spare the lives of the villagers, but he won’t spare Luffy and his friends. Nami gladly rejects the offer and asks the villagers to stand with her in their fight against Arlong, even if it means facing death. The villagers, knowing about Nami’s suffering for the past 8 years, accept their fate and prepare to fight.
A loud scream is heard, and it’s Luffy, who has regained consciousness. Sanji realizes that he can free Luffy by breaking the boulder that traps his feet. Zoro gives Sanji 30 seconds to complete the task while he faces off against Arlong with his Santoryu style.
As Sanji jumps into the water to break the boulder, Ussop joins the fight against Arlong, having just arrived in time. Ussop boasts that he has already defeated one of the officers alone and demonstrates his might. However, at that very moment, Hachi regains consciousness and declares that he won’t let them do as they please. The battle intensifies as the Straw Hat Pirates face off against the Arlong Pirates and the fate of the village hangs in the balance.
