Nami: cheer up already. Arlong: BBut I'm so touched! Nami: It was truly a beautiful good-bye, brother cook! Zoro: You are keeping a check on our boat's direction, right? Arlong: Ahhh! I wanna bring back Nami so we can go to grand line already! Nami: You're awfully happy. But even with Nami, don't you still only have 5 people? Nami: Are you seriously planning to go to grand line with only 5 people? Zoro: You'll regret it if you underestimate the seas, you hear!? Arlong: If it's more crewmembers I need, I can do that in grand line too! Arlong: After all, it's supposed to be a paradise! Arlong: Paradise? Don't you mean a pirate's graveyard!?
