Fish-Man Street.
On a certain street.
Arlong was sought after by the younger brothers and residents of Fishman Street to tell about various heroic deeds about 'teaching human beings'. There are many residents and children in Fishman Street who grew up under the shroud of this atmosphere, which led to the accumulation of hatred for human beings.
Arlong at this time stepped on a wine barrel with one foot.
To the surrounding onlookers, he told the last time he taught humans the process.
A lot of applause from the onlookers.
"It's good!"
"Big Brother Arlong! That's how you should deal with those hateful humans!"
"Yes! Do you really think we fish-men are easy to bully?"
While everyone's emotions were extremely high due to Arlong's infection, Hody Jones showed disgust in the crowd.
It's not that he doesn't worship Arlong.
In terms of his admiration for Arlong, he is definitely no worse than anyone on the scene.
But because of his excessive worship, even now someone interrupts Arlong to continue telling the story of punishing humans, which has aroused his dissatisfaction.
He felt that this group of people was depriving him of the time to listen to Arlong's heroic stories.
What he wants to hear is the heroic deeds of Arlong, not the flattering nonsense of this group of people!
Of course, the dissatisfaction of such a fishman boy did not attract everyone's attention. Even if they paid attention, they probably wouldn't take it to heart. After all, no matter what, Hody Jones is still just an unimportant little person. That's it.
A group of fish-men continued to roar around Arlong.
Arlong also felt very useful to the pursuit of this group of younger brothers, and said nonsense: "Hahahaha! Very good! Since everyone is so courageous! Next time I will take you to the land and take those ignorant human beings. Give them a lesson! Let them know that the fishman island and our fishmen are bloody! Not as cowardly and deceiving as those mermaids!"
As soon as the words came out.
The scene immediately burst into cheers.
Everyone applauded.
Each of them couldn't help showing a look of anticipation. Even Hody Jones, who was originally dissatisfied, became excited because of Arlong's promise. He could not wait to follow his Arlong brother to fight on land.
But just as Fish-men were making a fuss, Luffy shouted with all his strength from outside the crowd: "Arlong! I challenge you!" The scene suddenly became silent.
When everyone recognized Luffy's voice, there was a burst of laughter.
"Hahahahaha! Luffy, you're here? Do you want to challenge Big Brother Arlong?"
"Hahahaha! Good job, Luffy! I'll bet against people, you will definitely come over to challenge Big Brother Arlong today! You sure didn't disappoint me!"
A group of people before Luffy and after Luffy completely lost their hatred for Luffy.
In the final analysis, it was because of the prophecy that came out of Camie's mouth.
Although everyone in Fishman Street still hates humans very much, this does not prevent them from changing their views on Luffy because of this prophecy.
Everyone is very smart to make way for Luffy.
Luffy walked into the crowd with such a rage.
During the walk, there were many fish-men either fiddling with Luffy's hair or teasing Luffy a few times.
Luffy turned a blind eye to them all.
He still looks 'very fierce'.
In the end, he walked through the crowd, pointed at Arlong that was many times taller than him and said, "What's wrong? You didn't come out to fight, are you afraid of me?!"
As for Arlong...
The moment he heard Luffy's voice, he couldn't help but feel happy.
When he saw Luffy, this little guy, walking through the crowd, pointing at him and talking nonsense, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. Luffy's naive character has brought him a lot of fun in the past six months.
"Hahahahaha!" After a hearty burst of laughter, Arlong immediately turned into a ferocious look, "You dare to come here so quickly and die, forget how you were taught by me a few days ago?"
In the past six months, Luffy has challenged Arlong countless times.
Although Arlong didn't plan to kill Luffy, but every time he challenged, he would not let Luffy hold back.
Luffy won't stop until he's half dead.
Luffy took off his shirt and threw it far away.
The scars left by Arlong's mouth still remain on his body.
Luffy said with a firm expression: "That was a few days ago! Today's me, I'm not the same as a few days ago!" Say it.
Luffy charged directly towards Arlong.
He came to Arlong, put on a good posture, and shouted: "32 Brick Fist! Ha!"
'smack' sounded softly.
In the middle of the palm of the hand that Arlong deliberately stretched out to block it.
Arlong held Luffy's fist, slowly moved away, and immediately said with a mocking look: "Yo? It was only 28 a few days ago, and today it's 32. It's progressing pretty fast~"
Since half a year ago, after Luffy was defeated by Arlong.
He wanted to be stronger.
Knowing Luffy's heart, Queen Otohime recommended him to the fishman karate master, Hack, who is still working in Ryugu Castle. That is, in the original book, the fishman karate master Luffy met in the bullfighting arena competition.
The so-called 32 bricks represent the number of bricks that Luffy can penetrate with his current punch.
Arlong karate usually uses the number of bricks to judge the strength of this move.
For a four-year-old human child, being able to break 32 bricks at this age is already quite remarkable. It's a pity that the power of 32 bricks is still not worth mentioning for a fishman with a particularly powerful system like Arlong.
Seeing Luffy's angry look after being teased by himself, Arlong felt even more happy: "Since you have already shot at me, then... should you be prepared to be punished by me?"
Luffy's body trembled.
He knew what Arlong meant.
It seems that he is going to beat him up again.
But Luffy only trembled, he didn't mean to be afraid at all, and he continued to attack Arlong's palm without giving up.
"32 Brick Fist!"
"32 Brick Fist!"
"32 Brick Fist!"
"32 Brick Fist!"
The scene in front of him turned Fish-men upside down. They were all so amused by Luffy's funny scene that he couldn't help laughing so hard that tears appear.
"Hahahaha! Can't, I can't man!"
"Luffy, are you trying to make me laugh to death!"
Feeling such a happy atmosphere around, even Arlong was amused by Luffy's actions for a while.
And just when he was about to end this farce, there was a panicked shout from a distance: "Big Brother Arlong! It's not good, it's not good! Brother Arlong!"
