When Arlong and his party passed by Kakashi sub-village, all the villagers were alarmed by Arlong's mighty group of people.
Almost all the villagers who saw Arlong quickly hid in their houses with frightened faces.
I was afraid of being hit by Arlong, so I found some inexplicable reasons to let them take the money.
In recent years, they Cocoyasi Village have been squeezed out of almost even a drop of profit and water. If Arlong really took money for some reason.
But they can't get it out. All the villagers here know what the consequences will be if they don't have money.
Arlong looked at the panicked villagers and couldn't help laughing cruelly.
"Little kids, have you seen this? This is humankind, a race like waste. Only we, Fish-Man, are the most advanced race in the world! Hahahaha!"
"Oh! Oh! Yes, Boss Arlong is right!"
"How can mere humans be comparable to our noble Fish-Man? They are just garbage and ants!"
Fish-Mans followed with cheers holding up colorful Eight Gates weapons!
The villagers hiding inside the door saw the arrogant scene of Arlong through the crack of the door. Many of them gritted their teeth and their eyes were filled with hatred.
"Listen, Cat Burglar, who fought tooth and nail for you, has brought back a group of foreign aid this time.
This makes me very angry. I want you to know that no matter how hard you struggle on this island, you are my Arlong Empire's most despicable slave.
So Izo, don't come out, otherwise you will know the consequences of resisting!"
Upon hearing Arlong's threats, all the surrounding villagers trembled.
In one house, Enju, who was the same age as Nami and had aqua-blue hair, was even more horrified.
"Nami..." Nojiko covered her mouth tightly.
Just as Arlong continued walking towards the seaside, Nojiko could no longer bear the worry in his heart and rushed out to stop Arlong from harming Nami.
However, just as she was about to take action, she was blocked by someone.
"Genzo Uncle!"
A middle-aged man wearing a gray police uniform and a beard firmly held down Nojiko.
"What do you want to do! Nojiko, if you go out like this, you will only die. Do you want to be like your mother?"
"No, Uncle Genzo, Nami...Nami is in danger, I am my sister, I must go out and protect her!"
"Nojiko, don't be ridiculous. With your strength, you can't protect anyone!" Genzo yelled in a low voice.
Nojiko collapsed to the ground and looked at Genzo helplessly, "But what should Nami do? If she fails again this time, Arlong will definitely kill her. Even if I risk my life, I will protect Nami!"
After saying that, Nojiko wiped her tears and stood up firmly. She didn't want to escape anymore. Compared to Nami, she only felt that she was useless. She had been hiding behind her sister all these years.
Looking at Nojiko who had made up his mind, Genzo couldn't help but feel a hint of relief in his eyes, followed by a hint of sigh.
"As expected of Bell-mère's adopted daughter, she is indeed carved in the same mold as her, always so stubborn!
Forget it, as an uncle who has watched you two grow up, I will not watch you two die like this, Nojiko, you stay at home, I will save Nami!"
After saying that, Genzo turned around and opened the door, and then quickly locked the door.
There was a hint of panic in Nojiko's eyes, "Uncle Genzo, let me out, this is none of your business!"
Nojiko slapped the door hard, trying to prevent Genzo from dying in this way.
However, Genzo, who walked outside the door, looked up at the sky.
"Silly girl, how can you ignore my affairs? Nami That girl thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't know that everyone in the village knew what she was doing. She has really worked hard these years!"
Just when Genzo was sighing, he found groups of villagers gathering not far away, holding various farm tools in their hands.
Genzo looked stunned, "Everyone..."
"Mr. Genzo, we will go with you to rescue Nami!"
"Yes! Yes! That silly girl always puts everything on her. She has worked hard to make money these years. We all see it in our eyes. We obviously feel sorry for her, but she still says nasty things every time. We don't want to endure this kind of life for a long time. How can we watch her continue to be bullied by Arlong now? We will fight with these fish scum!"
"Yes! Let's fight them! I've long had enough of this kind of useless life. I'm worried every day. Maybe one day my whole family will die in the hands of Arlong if I don't have money. Since I'm going to die sooner or later, it's better to fight to the death with Arlong and the others!"
Looking at the angry villagers, Genzo's eyes turned red.
He suddenly took out the pistol from his waist, "Okay! Let's go and fight Arlong to the death. We will never let Nami and a little Enju stand in front of us!"
However, just when Genzo was about to lead the villagers in the direction Arlong just went.
The door behind him was smashed open with a bang, and Nojiko was seen, panting, rushing out of the house with a big hammer in his hand.
"I am the sister of Nami. I will never allow myself to stay at home with peace of mind and watch everyone die, even if we die together!"
At this time, Nojiko's eyes were filled with tears and he yelled at many villagers.
Seeing this, the villagers were silent for a moment, with slightly unbearable eyes. They were all adults, and they would die if they died, but Nojiko was still a child, how could they bear it.
So everyone looked at Genzo.
Genzo looked at Nojiko's determined look and knew that he couldn't stop this stubborn Enju, so he could only sigh.
"Hide behind us for a while!",
"Yes!" Luo Qigao nodded with tears in his eyes, and then a group of people walked towards the seaside in a mighty manner.
At this time, on the Cocoyasi Village coastline, Arlong was standing on the beach with a serrated sword more than two meters long, looking fierce.
"Come on! Come on! Let me see what kind of trash Nami and Cat Burglar have found!"
However, just as he finished speaking, several black spots slowly appeared on the sea level.
Arlong narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of cruelty at the corner of his mouth.
However, when the black spot slowly enlarged, both his and his Arlong Pirates's eyes widened.
Because seven or eight behemoths appeared on the sea, and as the behemoth slowly approached, they could see clearly what it was.
Many Fish-Man swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Boss, that's..."
A Fish-Man asked in horror.
Looking at the huge ship's hull covered in gun barrels like cast steel in the distance, and a group of marines wearing black and white military uniforms above.
He was looking at them with an unprecedented indifference, as if looking at prey, with murderous intent.
Many Fish-Man have pupil tremor.
Nami, who was on the bow of the ship, saw Arlong early on, and his young heart couldn't help but beat.
She raised her head and glanced at Granny He, whose expression was as usual, and her heart slowly lifted.
"A group of idiots are used to tyrannizing on a small island. They really think of themselves as an advanced race. Since they want to die so much, let's give them a little more power. All the battleships will obey the order, adjust the muzzle, and give me firepower to cover these ants!"
"Yes! General!"
The deputy next to him stood at attention.
Then Nami saw that the surrounding ships turned their rudders in unison, drawing beautiful arcs on the sea, and the muzzles of their guns were aimed at the Cocoyasi coastline.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The gun barrels contracted in unison, and the battleship under their feet trembled violently. Nami saw an extremely spectacular scene, as countless cannonballs like meteors were fired at Arlong and a group of Fish-Man.
Arlong suddenly came back to his senses, his face changed drastically, and he yelled at Fish-Man who was still stunned around him.
"Asshole, run away!"
However, before his roar had dissipated, bursts of violent loud noises exploded around him.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Kakkō soared into the sky, and the violent explosion shook the ground beneath our feet. It stirred up pieces of soil one after another.
Before Fish-Man could scream in the explosion, it was blown into a pile of minced meat, with its intestines and internal organs flying everywhere.
As soon as the villagers holding hoes and farm tools arrived nearby, they were frightened by the huge explosion. The weapons in their hands fell to the ground without holding them firmly.
With dull eyes, he looked at the coastline as if it were covered in flames.
"That's... what's that..."
