Nami was back at her home, dressing the stab wound she gave herself. She tied a bandage around her shoulder before she left.
'I've cried and complained long enough! Everyone's fighting for their freedom.' she thought. 'I will too!'

The villagers watched from the broken gate, which was guarded by Johnny and Yosaku to keep them from getting themselves killed. While Gin was among the crowd having his wounds taken care of by the doctor, Hachi returned with a blade in each hand as he and Zoro were about to fight.
"Behold Roronoa Zoro!" Hachi yelled. "Aside from another on Fishman Island, I am the strongest swordsman! You cannot hope to beat my six sword style!" As he yelled, Zoro tied his bandana around his head and placed his white blade in his mouth.
"What's so great about that?" Zoro asked. "Johnny! Yosaku! Lend me your blades!"
"Right Big Bro!" they both shouted as they threw their swords towards Zoro. "Catch!"
"HAH! Behold the power of my six sword style! OCTOPUS MIRACLE SWORDS!" Hachi yelled as he waved his swords around while charging towards Zoro. Zoro didn't even budge.
"Big Bro! Our swords are coming at you!" Johnny yelled.
"Didn't you say you wanted them?!" screamed Yosaku. Just before Hachi struck, Zoro grabbed both blades and began to swerve and deflect all of Hachi's blades.
"Three Sword Style," Zoro said as he appeared behind Hachi. "Bleeding the Wolf!" Both stood their for a moment before Hachi was slashed and blood dripped from his chest.
"NYU?! How dare you?!" Hachi yelled as he turned to face Zoro. "Nyu?" he said as he noticed Zoro wobble around a bit and sweating a lot.
"His wound from Hawk-Eye hasn't healed yet." Yosaku said.
"It'd probably take half a year for it to finish healing, yet he's moving around like it's nothing!" said Johnny.
"That idiot. Why didn't he-" Sanji said before Kuroobi's fist knocked him through the wall of the fence surrounding Arlong Park.
"You shouldn't take your eyes off your opponent." Kuroobi said. "I'm a level 40 master of Fishman Karate." "Brother Cook!" Johnny and Yosaku screamed. Sanji just lay there in a daze with blood slipping out of his mouth.
"SHAHAHAHAHA!" Arlong laughed. "Did you humans really think you had a chance?" he asked, grinning at the sight of Zoro and Sanji either down or on their last legs. "Why don't you join them?!" He shouted as he lunged at Luffy. Luffy merely stepped to the side, avoiding the attack before grabbing Arlong's head and shoving his face into the concrete.
"Shut up and watch." Luffy said as he looked back at the fight. Everyone gaped at the sight of Arlong being thrown to the ground so easily. They then turned back to Sanji who was slowly getting up and was lighting a cigarette.
"Level 40 huh?" he asked as he breathed out some smoke. "Then the geezer's kicks must've been level 400." He then slowly walked back into the park for a rematch against Kuroobi.
"You're still alive?" Kuroobi asked in disbelief. "Of course I am." Sanji said with a grin. "I know a restaurant full of people who could beat you easily."
"I'm being underestimated." Kuroobi said.
"Nyuuuuu!" Hachi said before he pointed all his blades at Zoro. "Octopus Pot Stance! Eat this!" he shouted as he charged at Zoro. "New Year's!" he shouted as Zoro blocked he blades. "Octopus Opener!" He shouted as he moved Zoro's blade away, leaving him open to a massive headbutt from Hachi into his wounds.
"GAH!" Zoro shouted as his eyes rolled back while he struggled to stay on his feet.
"That idiot!" Sanji said before Kuroobi punched him again in the ribs.
"Looking away again? Stupid human." Kuroobi chuckled. While they were fighting, Hachi ran under him before twirling his swords around. "Octopus Waltz! DIE!" Zoro did nothing as he fell on the blades, scaring all the villagers before Hachi screamed as he stared at his bleeding hands. "He spun around with my blades and cut my hands?! How?!"
"Simple." Zoro said as he stood up breathing heavily. An image of Hawk-Eye flashed through his mind.
'What burden do you carry on your shoulders?'
"My swords are heavier. That's all."
"What?! That's impossible. Mine are 300KG each. No way are yours heavier!" he then put his blades together again. "POT STANCE! Time to die!" he then charged at Zoro, who had a distant look in his eyes.
'I'm at my limit. I can barely see.' Zoro thought. "But I can't pass out now.' He then raised his swords again. 'This wound would kill an ordinary man by now. If I'm to defeat Hawk-Eye...THEN I CANNOT BE ORDINARY!' "DRAGON TORNADO!" he shouted as his attack broke Hachi's blades and sent him spiraling skyward. 'Like I told him. My swords are heavier.'
"I lost...to his three sword style?" Hachi said before he smashed into the concrete. All the villagers stared in disbelief as Arlong tried to move, enraged at seeing Hachi beaten.
"Get...off of me!" Arlong growled as Luffy kept him from moving with his foot.
"I said be quiet." Luffy said in a bored tone, not budging at all. Meanwhile, Kuroobi had knocked Sanji into the water earlier and proceeded to use his fishman karate on Sanji. No matter what Sanji tried, he couldn't move fast enough in the water, giving Kuroobi a huge advantage.
"Hehehe. All this for some stupid bitch? Sad." he said as he was about to finish Sanji off, only for Sanji to blow air into his gills, suffocating him as they both rose to the water.
"You okay?" Zoro asked.
"Yeah...I'm alright." he said before shouting and pointing at the water. "GET OUT HERE! I WANNA FIGHT WHERE I CAN BREATHE!" Kuroobit got out of the water before he started spouting about how his attack earlier was nothing compared to his ultimate attack, and that his chances of survival were zero, even with a leg coming at him.
"Neck!" he said before kicking Kuroobi into the concrete. "I told you didn't I?" he said as Kuroobi tried to get up. "SHOULDER!" he said with another kick. "Not to insult Nami!" he said before delivering a rapid series of kicks. "RIBS! BACK! CHEST! LEGS!" Soon Kuroobi was struggling to stand up as Sanji ran towards him.
