Inside the royal palace on Fish-Man Island.
Queen Otohime stood in the great hall with her two sons.
Neptune gazed tenderly at little Shirahoshi, gently teasing her as she slept.
With worry in his eyes, he looked toward Queen Otohime.
"He really succeeded."
"But Fish-Man Island's situation... has become even more difficult."
"I'm afraid we won't be able to attend the Reverie now."
"What... should we do?"
Queen Otohime lowered her head as well.
"But I truly couldn't stop him that day."
"I heard the heart-wrenching..."
"Cry of anguish from deep within him..."
On Fish-Man Island, the fish-men and merfolk had gone wild.
Newspapers fluttered down all over the streets, and everyone's face shone with pride.
The "hero," Fisher Tiger.
A fish-man who dared to challenge the Celestial Dragons-he was their pride.
Some of the fish-men who had admired and followed Fisher Tiger in the past, including Jinbe, Arlong, and Hachi.
Left Fish-Man Island without hesitation to follow him.
In the backstreets of Fish-Man Island.
The still-young Hody Jones was surrounded by several of his future companions.
Reading the latest newspaper, he couldn't hold back his admiration.
"He's amazing. Just what you'd expect from the old boss of the Fish-Man District."
"He's got the Celestial Dragons grinding their teeth. The Celestial Dragons!"
A fish-man with blue-green stripes beside him said:
"He gave those infuriating humans a good beating."
"Arlong always used to say humans were trash, too."
"They're all an inferior race."
A somewhat chubby fish-man beside them said:
"Of course they are."
"The Sun Pirates are sailing all over the seas, teaching those humans a lesson!"
"They're incredible!"
A glint of madness flashed through Hody Jones's eyes.
"Keep at it, Sun Pirates!"
"One day, I'll do it too."
"I'll kill every last one of those humans!"
