However, before the longsword could strike Roy, it was easily caught between the index and middle fingers of Roy’s outstretched right hand.
While using the index and middle fingers of his right hand to catch the longsword swung down by the catfish fish-man, Roy lightly swung his clenched left fist toward the catfish fish-man’s head.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, the catfish fish-man’s head exploded like a watermelon under Roy’s punch.
Blood sprayed everywhere!
The scene was extremely bloody!
“Not good!
We’re under attack by a human enemy!”
One of the fish-men who had come along to collect protection money saw the fish-man Catfish Nine get killed, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He was badly frightened and shouted in urgent panic.
“Roy not only caught that catfish fish-man’s sword with two fingers, but he also blew that catfish fish-man’s head apart with one punch?”
Nami was struck speechless by the scene before her.
She had never expected that Catfish Nine, a fish-man squad captain who was very strong in her eyes, would be instantly killed with a single punch like this.
Roy’s terrifying strength…
Left Nami completely shaken.
This scene also frightened the other fish-men into a daze.
Although the catfish fish-man could not be considered one of the main core officers of the Arlong Pirates, he was still a fish-man squad captain.
His strength was absolutely not weak!
Yet he had been killed just like that?
Killed by a human?
“You, hurry back and tell Boss Arlong that a human is causing trouble and killed Captain Catfish Nine!
The rest of you, deal with this human with me.
His strength is very powerful, and he killed one of our people.
We absolutely can’t let him leave!”
A carp fish-man instructed the salmon fish-man beside him.
“All right, I’ll go notify Boss Arlong right now!”
The salmon fish-man swallowed secretly, then immediately ran toward Arlong Park.
After his salmon fish-man companion went to deliver the message, the carp fish-man continued shouting loudly, “Everyone, attack together!
Surround and kill this brat, and avenge Captain Catfish Nine!”
…
Arlong Park!
Arlong, the sawshark fish-man, was lying on a lounge chair and drinking juice, looking extremely comfortable.
His Arlong Pirates had already occupied Cocoyasi Village and dozens of other villages for several years.
He treated every human here as his slave.
This kind of life made him enjoy himself very much.
It was something he had never been able to enjoy on the Grand Line.
“Hmph.
Lowly humans are only worthy of being slaves to the fish-men race!”
“Hey, you!
Go get me something to eat!”
Just as Arlong was preparing to have one of his subordinates bring over some food, a fish-man came running into Arlong Park, panting heavily and looking panicked.
This fish-man was the salmon fish-man who had run back to deliver the report.
“Boss Arlong!
Boss Arlong!
Something terrible happened!
Nami brought a human brat to attack us in Cocoyasi Village!
Captain Catfish Nine’s head was blown apart by that human brat with one punch!”
The moment those words came out, the fish-men inside Arlong Park were immediately stunned.
A human actually dared to attack the Arlong Pirates?
And had even killed one of their fellow fish-men?
“What?
Someone actually dared to attack us fish-men in our own territory!”
A fish-man officer standing nearby immediately flew into a rage.
“That damned Nami!
I said long ago that we should have killed her!
Not a single one of these humans can be trusted!”
“That lowly human has some nerve, daring to kill Catfish Nine. New chapters come out on g.com first.
Once I catch him, I’ll skin him alive!
Choo!”
Chew, the kissing gourami fish-man, spoke with killing intent on his face.
“Not only will we skin him, but every human connected to him must be killed as well.
We’ll let humans know the consequences of killing one of us fish-men!”
The fish-man Arlong crushed the glass cup in his hand.
Threads of blood appeared in his eyes as he gnashed his teeth.
He had never expected something like this to happen.
Lowly humans actually dared to resist the rule of the fish-men.
He had to kill until these humans were terrified, until they feared them so much that they would never dare resist the fish-men again.
“That’s right, kill them all!”
The octopus Hatchan also drew several swords from his waist, his eyes filled with a fierce light.
“Men, bring your weapons and follow me to kill that human.
Today, I allow all of you to kill to your hearts’ content.
Don’t sheathe your blades!”
Arlong, the captain of the Arlong Pirates, carried his large saw-blade weapon, Kiribachi, on his right shoulder and stepped on the lounge chair with his left foot as he gave the order.
Not sheathing their blades meant that these fish-men could freely slaughter humans today!
Under Arlong’s lead, the group of fish-men headed toward Cocoyasi Village with murderous momentum.
“Boss Arlong, didn’t you make an agreement with Nami before?
If we go kill the villagers of Cocoyasi Village, wouldn’t that count as breaking the promise?”
The fish-man officer, the octopus Hatchan, suddenly remembered something and reminded Arlong from behind.
After hearing Hatchan’s words, Arlong turned his head and looked at him.
“Promises are nothing more than rules that lowly races like humans use to bind themselves.
Do we noble fish-men need to obey human rules?”
“Besides, Nami was the one who brought someone to kill one of us fish-men first.
So we need to slaughter half of Cocoyasi Village even more, in order to intimidate Nami and make sure she doesn’t dare harbor any small thoughts!”
