PLEASE DIE!!!

Chew, engulfed in flames from Usopp's attack, runs in panic through the forest while screaming, "GYAAAAAAAAA!" He desperately yells, "WATER! WATER!" and "WATER! I NEED WAAAAAATER!" as he barrels toward the water. He spots it and cries, "OH NO! CHU!" Just as Chew reaches the edge, Usopp rushes in from behind, shouting his own name, "USOPP!"

Usopp suddenly stops running, turns around, and swings his hammer with all his might, yelling "HAMMER!". He strikes Chew directly in the head with a loud "CLANG!". Usopp follows up with a rapid series of attacks, shouting, "USOPP HAMMER! USOPP RUBBER BAND! USOPP HAMMER! USOPP HAMMER! USOPP HAMMER!". Chew is battered by the relentless assault and collapses to the ground, groaning, "YOU... BAS...".

Usopp stands victorious, panting heavily, "HUFF HUFF HUFF". He looks down at the defeated Chew, who is lying motionless on the ground. Usopp says, "I WON...". He then realizes what he has accomplished, saying, "LOOK... A FISH-MAN... I BEAT...". Overcome with triumph, Usopp throws his arms in the air and yells at the top of his lungs, "EVEN I...! EVEN I CAN DO IT! DID YOU SEE THAT, YOU FISH! DON'T YOU DARE UNDERESTIMATE ME!".

Nami sits on the ground near a building in Cocoyasi Village, crying and clutching her arm. She says to herself, "I'VE ALREADY CRIED AS MUCH AS I CAN...! COMPLAINED AS MUCH AS I CAN...!". She wipes her tears away, her expression hardening into one of determination. She ties a bandage around her arm and bites down on it to tighten it, letting out a resolute "AHHH!". Nami then starts running down the path towards Arlong Park, thinking, "BUT I'VE MADE MY DECISION NOW! I HAVE TO GO...! EVERYONE'S ALREADY FIGHTING!".

Back at Arlong Park, Arlong stands tall amidst the destruction. Sanji and Zoro are lying on the ground, defeated and battered. Yosaku and Johnny watch in horror, with Yosaku saying, "WHA... WHAT DID THAT SHARK GUY JUST DO? I DON'T KNOW... I THOUGHT HE ONLY THREW SOME WATER, BUT IT KNOCKED THOSE TWO DOWN AND HAD THEM COUGHING UP BLOOD!". The villagers are equally shocked, one of them muttering, "AM I... DREAMING...!?". Sanji and Zoro struggle to move, coughing and gasping on the rubble-strewn ground.

Underwater, Genzo desperately performs CPR on Luffy, whose feet are still trapped in the concrete block. Genzo pumps Luffy's chest, pleading, "PUMP PUMP PUMP... PLEASE...! PLEASE BREATHE!". On the surface, Yosaku and Johnny panic, yelling, "WHAT HAPPENED TO BROTHER LUFFY!? DON'T TELL ME HE'S DEAD?" and "BROTHER COOK! DON'T STAND UP!". Nojiko watches Genzo's efforts intently and notices Luffy's hand twitch. She says, "HE MOVED!? ALMOST THERE...! COME BACK TO LIFE...! PLEASE!". Meanwhile, Sanji, bleeding heavily from his mouth, struggles to his feet, groaning, "UGH...!".

Arlong looks down at the struggling humans and mocks them, "I DON'T EVEN NEED TO TOUCH YOU PATHETIC HUMANS. JUST A LITTLE WATER'S MORE THAN ENOUGH TO KILL THE LIKES OF YOU... THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE IN POWER BETWEEN OUR RACES.". Sanji, refusing to give up, leaps into the air and delivers a powerful kick aimed at Arlong, shouting, "SHUT THE HELL UP! POITRINE SHOT! (chest)". Arlong easily blocks the kick with his arm, looking unfazed.

Arlong counters Sanji's attack by grabbing him and spinning him around violently, throwing him to the ground with immense force. Sanji crashes hard, coughing up blood. As he lies there, Sanji thinks, "DAMN IT... FIGHTING US IS JUST A GAME TO HIM... HE'S ONLY SPLASHING SOME WATER ON US BUT... IT FEELS AS STRONG AS A SHOTGUN BLAST...! IS THIS HOW POWERFUL A SHARK TYPE FISHMAN IS...!? EVEN FOR A FISHMAN... HE'S ON A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LEVEL!". Arlong looms over him, saying coldly, "HURRY UP AND DIE ALREADY. IT'S NOT AS IF YOUR LIVES ARE ACTUALLY WORTH ANYTHING...".

Nami arrives at the entrance of Arlong Park, holding her staff. She calls out, "ARLONG!". The villagers turn to see her, exclaiming, "SISTER NAMI...!" and "NAC-CHAN!". Arlong turns around, a sinister smile on his face. "NAMI... NAMI... <3 GREAT TIMING. I WAS JUST ABOUT TO KILL THESE PIRATES. SO WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?". Nami glares at him with unwavering resolve and declares, "I CAME HERE... TO KILL YOU...!".

Arlong bursts into laughter at Nami's declaration. "TO KILL ME!? SHAHA HAHA! IN THE 8 YEARS YOU'VE BEEN WITH ME... HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU TRIED TO KILL ME...? WHETHER BY ASSASSINATION, POISONING, OR SURPRISE ATTACKS... BUT DID YOU EVER SUCCEED!? SHOULDN'T YOU KNOW WELL BY NOW THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR INFERIOR HUMANS TO KILL ME...!?". He points a finger at her, his expression turning serious. "LISTEN WELL... I'M NOT GOING TO KILL YOU... AND I WON'T LET YOU ESCAPE EITHER...! I'LL HAVE YOU BE MY CARTOGRAPHER FOREVER!". Nami stares back at him, undeterred.

Arlong continues his speech, gesturing expansively. "...BUT AS YOU KNOW, I'M AN UNDERSTANDING GUY! I DON'T WANT TO CHAIN DOWN A YOUNG WOMAN IF POSSIBLE. THAT'S WHY I'D RATHER HAVE YOU BE MY CARTOGRAPHER OUT OF YOUR OWN WILL.". He then points towards the gathered villagers. "OTHER THAN YOU, I'M PLANNING TO KILL EVERYONE HERE RIGHT NOW BUT... IF YOU AGREE TO JOIN THE ARLONG PIRATES AGAIN, AND CONTINUE DRAWING MAPS FOR ME AS ONE OF MY CREW OFFICERS, I'LL SPECIALLY ALLOW FOR THE LIVES OF THOSE COCOYASHI VILLAGERS TO BE SPARED...!". Arlong then steps heavily on Zoro's back, causing Zoro to groan. "I CAN'T SAY THE SAME FOR THESE GUYS, HOWEVER.. THEY'VE PISSED ME OFF TOO MUCH. SO WHICH WILL YOU CHOOSE TO SIDE WITH...?".

Arlong presses his foot down on Zoro as he presents Nami with an ultimatum. "WILL YOU CHOOSE TO SIDE WITH ME AND SAVE YOUR FELLOW VILLAGERS? OR WILL YOU SIDE WITH THESE WEAKLINGS AND ATTEMPT TO FIGHT ME...?...BUT OF COURSE, SEEING AS HOW YOUR MOST DEPENDABLE FIGHTERS HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO THIS SAD STATE, YOUR INEVITABLE TRAGEDY IS ONLY TOO EASY TO SEE...!". Arlong leans in, his sharp teeth bared in a menacing grin. "SO TELL ME, NAMI...! ARE YOU WITH ME? OR WITH THEM...?". Nami looks on, her face tense as she weighs her impossible choice.

Nami agonizes over the decision, thinking, "...IF I SAY I'M WITH LUFFY AND THEM, EVERYONE WILL BE KILLED...! BUT IF I SAY I'M WITH ARLONG, I CAN SAVE ALL THE VILLAGERS...!? A SINGLE WORD FROM ME CAN DECIDE THE FATE OF ALL THEIR LIVES...!?". The villagers watch her, their faces filled with determination. One of them shouts, "OF COURSE I WILL!". Another yells at Arlong, "YOU ROTTEN MONSTER! YOU'RE STILL FORCING NAMI EITHER WAY!". Nami thinks, "I CAN'T DOUBT THEIR WORDS...!". She looks up, tears in her eyes but a bright smile on her face, and addresses the villagers. "I'M SORRY, EVERYONE! BUT WOULD YOU PLEASE, DIE WITH ME!?".

The villagers erupt in a unified cheer, raising their weapons high. "ALRIGHT!". Arlong looks down at them, his expression darkening. "I SEE... SO YOU CHOOSE TO ALL DIE...". Suddenly, a massive geyser of water erupts from the pool. Luffy's head bursts through the surface, gasping loudly for air, "BFFFFT!". Genzo and Nojiko, who are still underwater, look shocked, exclaiming "AH!" and "UHH!".

Arlong is taken aback by the sudden eruption, exclaiming, "WHAT!?". Sanji, still on the ground, smiles through his injuries. "IT WORKED! NOW ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS FREE HIS LEGS!". Genzo, exhausted and clutching his chest, realizes what happened. "OH, SO THAT'S HOW IT WAS...". The villagers cheer enthusiastically, "AHHH! BROTHER LUFFY MUST BE...! HEY! ARE YOU AWAKE!?". Luffy's head, now above water, takes a massive, desperate breath, his mouth wide open as he inhales, "BUHAAAAA! HAH!".

Zoro tightens his bandana around his head, preparing for battle. Nami looks at him and smiles, saying, "ZORO...". Sanji bites down on his cigarette and declares, "30 SECONDS! I WON'T LAST ANY LONGER THAN THAT.". He then dives into the water with a splash. Zoro replies, "THAT'S MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME I NEED!". Arlong stares at the pool, confused. "THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY FOUNTAIN OVER THERE... WHICH MEANS THAT RUBBER BRAT IS...!?".

Zoro draws his swords, taking a combat stance. He taunts Arlong, "DON'T PAY ANY HEED TO THAT. IT'S NOTHING AT ALL, YOU HALF-FISH MUTANT!". Arlong's face contorts in anger. "DIDN'T I ALREADY TELL YOU TO NEVER CALL ME THAT AGAIN, RORONOA ZORO...?". Suddenly, a projectile flies through the air and strikes Arlong squarely in the back of the head with a "SPLAT". A voice yells, "EGG STAR!".

Usopp stands atop the wall surrounding Arlong Park, striking a confident pose. "I'LL BACK YOU UP, ZORO! SO FIGHT WITHOUT ANY WORRIES!". The villagers are amazed, cheering, "BROTHER USOPP, IS THAT YOU!? YOU'RE SO BRAVE! ARE YOU ALRIGHT!? WHERE ARE YOU!? WHAT A BOLD ENTRANCE YOU'RE MAKING!". Zoro looks back over his shoulder, deadpan. "THAT'S WHERE YOU ARE!?". Nami smiles brightly, "USOPP!". Usopp boasts, "NAMI!! I, ALL ALONE, TOOK DOWN ONE OF THEIR OFFICERS! ALL BY MYSELF! I'M COUNTING ON YOU! YOU'RE OUR ONLY HOPE!". Nearby, Hatchan begins to regain consciousness, groaning, "NYU...". Underwater, Genzo struggles to pull Luffy free. "HEY! CAN YOU TRY TO PULL YOURSELF OUT ON YOUR OWN?". Luffy replies, "NO, I CAN'T FEEL ANY STRENGTH IN MY BODY.". Arlong glares at Zoro, declaring, "I WON'T LET YOU DO AS YOU PLEASE...!".
