You Are All Reckless Brawlers

Nami was not there right now, as she was still outside Arlong Park.

She was afraid that her hopes would fall through, and at the same time, she worried that Luffy's crew simply could not defeat Arlong.

Nami could hear how huge the commotion inside the club was, and the hope in her heart grew larger and larger.

I should believe that Luffy and the others can do it. They have already acknowledged me as their crewmate; since that's the case, I should have a little more trust in them.

She originally thought that after she had stolen all of their treasure, Luffy and the others would be extremely angry with her.

So when Nami saw Luffy here for the first time, she was only surprised for a moment.

I'm someone with crewmates now too. I can't hide here by myself while my crewmates are fighting for their lives for my sake. I should defeat Arlong together with them!

Nami clenched her fists, picked up the dagger on the ground, and stabbed it straight into her arm.

Her arm was still tattooed with the mark belonging to the Arlong Pirates.

"Starting from today, I am no longer Arlong's subordinate!"

With a resolute look in her eyes, Nami stood up and slowly walked toward the direction of the main gates of Arlong Park.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw a familiar figure, with a familiar box placed right beside his feet.

Wasn't that the box where she kept her one hundred million Beli?!

She hadn't expected that she would still be able to see this money!

When Nami saw the box, her eyes lit up, and she even rushed forward rather impatiently.

However, she quickly calmed down. How could this box suddenly appear here, or rather, how did that young man manage to get hold of it?!

"Who on earth are you, and how did you get this box?!"

Nami held the dagger horizontally against Moyun's neck, her gaze cold.

"Don't be so excited. I just came over to return the money. Your money was taken by Captain Nezumi."

Moyun didn't turn his head back. He looked as if he didn't even mind the dagger propped against his neck, keeping his complete and undivided attention on the others' battle.

Hearing Moyun's words, Nami remembered that Nojiko had indeed said Captain Nezumi took it, and she promptly put the dagger down.

"I'm sorry, my emotions were a bit too agitated."

"It's fine, I can understand. Luffy will win, do you believe that?"

Nami, who was asked this question, was suddenly stunned, and then she nodded firmly.

"I believe in them!"

Moyun nodded and didn't continue speaking.

This battle went on for a bit of a long time, or perhaps it just seemed that way to those villagers.

They had waited far too long for this day.

All of the officers had been knocked down by Luffy's other crewmates, leaving only Arlong in the end.

"You guys actually have some skills, but wanting to defeat me is simply impossible!"

"I'm going to send you flying right now!"

Luffy grinned at Arlong, which, in Arlong's eyes, was a blatant provocation!

Arlong's eyes were already bloodshot. This was the first grueling battle he had fought since coming to the East Blue so many years ago!

So at this moment, his heart was also filled with panic and fear.

Could it be that he was really going to be defeated by this group of brats?!

"You came here for Nami, but Nami is our crewmate—"

Now began the villain's monologue time, and Moyun had already found a recliner to sit on and watch.

"I really don't understand why Luffy actually listened all the way through at a time like this!"

Moyun shook his head, and then saw that Luffy had already made his move against Arlong. First, he destroyed the room that had kept Nami trapped drawing navigation charts all along, and then he snapped Arlong's nose.

"You can stop daydreaming! Nami is our crewmate forever!"

Luffy roared at the top of his lungs, "Gomu Gomu no Gatling!"

Fists like a torrential rain pounded toward Arlong's abdomen, and having already been somewhat lacking in physical strength, he could no longer hold out now.

The tall Fish-man slowly collapsed to the ground. In the villagers' hearts, the shadow that had always hung over them finally vanished.

"Arlong—Arlong has finally been defeated!"

"We're finally free!"

The villagers cheered happily, and some even began to weep with joy.

Moyun also stood up while clapping his hands, wiping non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes as he said, "This is truly so touching! I love happy endings!"

Nami turned to look at this rather mysterious teenager and tentatively asked, "Did you come here to return money, or to watch a show?"

"Hmm, a bit of both, I suppose. It's quite spectacular, isn't it?"

Moyun made a shushing gesture at Nami, then waved goodbye to her and left.

"I hope we can still meet each other in the Grand Line later. Wishing you a pleasant adventure."

"What a strange teenager indeed."

Nami murmured as she watched Moyun's departing back. She didn't know how strong this teenager's skills were, but from the traces left behind previously, she could tell he wasn't weak.

In an obscure corner, Captain Nezumi was secretly peeking and observing.

He hadn't expected that Arlong, who had dominated this place for so long, would actually be defeated by such an obscure pirate crew!

"What a bunch of good-for-nothings! When I go back, I must report this properly!"

"Report what?"

"Naturally that stinky brat called Moyun, and this Straw Hat Pirates crew!"

Captain Nezumi answered immediately without even thinking.

He suddenly realized something, lifted his head in an instant, and saw Moyun standing right in front of him with a beaming smile as he looked at him.

"Didn't I say it before? I didn't want to see you. How come you still let me see you?"

When Moyun came out from the club earlier, he had seen a sneaky figure lying on the ground in the corner of the wall, peering through a hole in the wall.

He didn't even need to think to know that it was Captain Nezumi.

"Why are you here?! Didn't you already leave by boat?!"

"You've got quite some nerve, actually daring to spy on me."

Moyun's smile grew wider and wider, which looked like a particularly terrifying scene in Captain Nezumi's eyes.

"What are you going to do?! I'll leave right now, is that not good enough?!"

Captain Nezumi sat on the ground, scooted backward a few steps, and looked at Moyun in terror.

"It's too late!"

In the end, Moyun still gave Captain Nezumi a beating, only stopping once the latter had passed out cold.

"Alright, today's workout ends here. Tsk, he looks so hideous."

Moyun patted his hands together, his eyes filled with utter disgust when he looked at the bruised and swollen Captain Nezumi.

By the time Captain Nezumi regained consciousness, it was already evening. As soon as he sat up, he felt a burning pain on his face.

"I will definitely not let you off!"

Captain Nezumi let out a loud roar, though because it pulled at the wound on the corner of his mouth, he winced in pain once more.

Having returned to the Marine Ship, he immediately placed a call to headquarters.
