=========================================
Boom!!
In Cocoyasi Village, the normally peaceful streets were now in ruins, and the villagers were fleeing in terror.
Another house collapsed with a loud crash, and a nearby fish man nonchalantly retracted his hand.
"Hahahaha!!"
A group of burly fishmen laughed wildly as they watched the humans scatter.
"Humans are a lower species, completely powerless to resist!" Arlong, the leader of the Arlong Pirates, sneered at the villagers with a look of brutal contempt.
"Shut up!! You vile pirates!" Genzo, the village policeman, stood up and shouted angrily.
Behind him stood a group of villagers wielding weapons. Although their faces were filled with fear, they stood before the fishmen.
They were afraid, but they had no choice but to stand up!
Two years ago, a child protected the village, and although they didn't show it, they still felt a sense of guilt.
Their home had to be defended by themselves!
Summoning his courage, Genzo grabbed an iron rod and led the villagers in a charge!
However, the innate differences between species were not something ordinary people could overcome.
Arlong looked dismissively at the humans who dared to resist and said calmly, "Chew! Show them a lesson!"
Beside Arlong, a tall, slender fish-man with a long mouth resembling an iron cannonfish stepped forward, his lips painted with lipstick.
The fish-man named Chew glared listlessly with dead fish eyes, then lowered his head and rapidly spat out several water bullets from his long mouth!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of rapid strikes echoed as Genzo was hit by the water bullets and fell like dominoes.
The villagers clutched their wounded bodies, groaning in pain, while Genzo's face twisted with unwillingness!
Why?!
Are the fishmen really this strong?!
They didn't even take us seriously and they could defeat us all in an instant!
Bell-mère stood with the villagers, her eyes filled with anger, holding Nami and Nojiko by the hands.
The two little girls cowered behind Bell-mère's legs in fear, and Nojiko worriedly thought: Brother, where are you...
Seeing the fear on everyone's faces, Arlong felt even more satisfied and laughed arrogantly.
"Fishmen are naturally a superior race, and dirty humans shouldn't even exist!"
"Humans defying fish-man's rule is like defying the laws of nature!"
Arlong enjoyed seeing the humans he despised being so powerless. He extended five fingers and said, "If you want to live, pay for it!"
"50,000 Berries for each child, 100,000 Berries for each adult. Fair enough, right?"
"Being allowed to live in my Arlong Empire is a lifelong honour for you!"
The villagers bowed their heads in humiliation, while Genzo roared in anger, "Damn fish-men! How could we!"
Arlong's thick eyebrows furrowed, and Kuroobi, a sawfish fish-man beside him, rushed forward.
With a fierce punch, Genzo's body was sent flying, uncontrollably spewing blood from his mouth.
Barely alive, Genzo knelt on the ground, and Kuroobi coldly said, "Do not resist the fishermen!"
Seeing Genzo collapse, someone finally couldn't bear the immense pressure.
"We can't beat them... Let's just give them the money."
"What are you saying?!"
"We don't stand a chance. Not giving them money is just throwing our lives away…"
"No one can defeat them…"
Arlong watched the crowd gradually give up resisting and smirked.
"You're wrong!"
At that moment, a young voice rang out, and Arlong's smile froze.
Nami had somehow run out from behind Bell-mère and shouted, "My big brother Noir is the strongest!"
"You filthy fishermen, Noir won't let you off!"
Noir—a name too familiar to forget.
The villagers suddenly remembered a ten-year-old child who defeated a pirate with a bounty of 15 million Berries and sank a pirate ship.
A glimmer of hope flashed in Genzo's eyes as he struggled to get up, muttering, "Right, Noir is still…"
"If that brat comes back and sees this, he'll laugh at me!"
The villagers seemed to regain their fighting spirit, while Arlong glared at Nami, puzzled.
Who is Noir? Is he the strong one in this village?
What kind of strength could someone from a small village have?
Bell-mère quickly pulled Nami back, shielding her from Arlong's murderous gaze.
Arlong looked at Kuroobi and ordered, "Kill that man. Let them see some blood!"
"Yes!"
Kuroobi picked up a fallen sword and swung it down mercilessly!
"Genzo!"
"Genzo!"
The villagers shouted in anger, but the blade did not slow down.
At the critical moment, a gust of wind blew, and a figure appeared!
Clang!!
Instead of the expected blood, there was a clear sound of metal clashing.
Kuroobi looked in surprise at the hand that caught the blade—it was pitch black!
Haki? How could it be?!
Looking further, he saw a young face under a heavy cloak.
What?!
Arlong's eyes widened as he looked at the newcomer.
"Genzo, I just got back. How did the village get filled with so much trash?"
"Haven't you been managing it well?"
Genzo looked at the cloaked man in surprise. He would recognize that voice anywhere!
When this rascal was a kid, he used to pull out Gonzo's leg hair for fun!
Slowly removing his hat, a handsome and dashing face was revealed.
With short, smooth black hair, sharp eyebrows, and deep, star-like eyes, he had a mysterious and lethal charm!
It was none other than the dashing Noir!
"Noir!"
"Big brother!"
"You brat!"
"My dear!"
Hearing the villagers' joyful cheers, Noir grinned with satisfaction.
As expected, my popularity hasn't waned!
Wait!
Did I hear some weird nickname mixed in?
In the crowd, a certain orange-haired loli shrank her neck...
Looking at the villagers as if they were chasing a star, Arlong wanted to point at Noir and curse—Who the hell are you?!
This atmosphere... this heat...
Who do you think you are?
Are you a returning king?
The returning king Noir turned around and met Arlong's hateful gaze, revealing a cold smile.
Pointing at Arlong saw-shaped nose, he said:
"Stop staring, Arlong!"
"I'm coming over to send you—to the afterlife!"
