67. Party for 3 days
The silence was followed by a huge cheer. Cheers from everyone who were present. Many of the villagers had actually arrived with spears and household weapons when they watched the fire from far. So of them wanted to be the fish in the water in this scenario.
But it seed like this was not required! everything had been taken care of.
"Oi Nami what is going on? Who are these people?" Genzo, the person who had been a father figure in Nami's life ca forward and wanted an explanation of what had happened. He was the first to co here and try attacking Arlong's crew because he knew first hand how cruel and powerful these pirates were and how Nami had been running around trying to save everyone.
And now out of nowhere Arlong and his crew were done for. From the gate itself they could see that the pirate crew were charred black and lying on the ground and even so of the marines were among them.
They had already speculated that the marines had so kind of arrangent between Arlong and the marines and today it was proved. But all of these didn't matter when they got to see the body of Arlong being dragged out by Hachi with great difficulty. There was a huge hole in his shoulder and it was followed by constant bleeding.
"Why is this fishman still alive? Kill him!"
"Yes, yes. Kill him. Kill all of these fishn pirates."
"Don't let anyone get away."
Hachi, who was busy dragging away the half-dead body of Arlong, shuddered. He could understand the anger of the people around. They had committed unspeakable atrocities in the village and they did deserve whatever was coming after them.
The people ran towards Hachi to kill him but it was Ken who suddenly flew and ca between the people and Hachi. Nami and others were surprised that Ken even ca in the middle.
"Mister, he is a fishman. Like others, he too is responsible for whatever had happened in the village. I think Nami had spoken about that."
"Nami had spoken of everything. But I hope you can leave Hachi out of this. We need a fishman to take away these filthy people and get the hell out of here." Ken said.
"Yes. Yes. And before going he can cook for us." Luffy suddenly rembered the main purpose of following Hachi and his eyes turned into takoyaki again. Zoro ca forward and hit him right at the head.
"Make your priorities straight, idiot."
"Does he think Hachi will cook for us after what we had done?" Usopp too didn't understand how Luffy forgot everything when the matter of food was raised.
The people were more confused by this. These friends that Nami had brought seed to be quite powerful and took down the fishn pirates and alongside that they were protecting the people that they had just beaten down.
What is wrong with these people?
"Hachi, you better run. I can't save you from these people." Ken said. Hachi had great connections and even helped the Straw Hat pirates later, also accounting for the fact that he knew Rayleigh and even Shakki, it was better to just leave him.
And of course, like Luffy, he also wanted to try the takoyaki of Hachi but he didn't shout it out loud. Hachi, who just got the warning from Ken, looked at him with grateful eyes. He was already expecting death but his own enemy ca forward and helped him.
He had never faced such a weird situation in his life. After taking so of the half dead crew mbers in his small boat, he swam away while pulling it. The villagers were still not happy with how easily they were let go but they could also see that Arlong might not even live for a long ti with such a huge injury.
After Hachi and the crew vanished from the eyes of the villagers, they all rejoiced and had happy smiles on their faces. They were finally free from Arlong and his cruel rule. Nami beca weak to her knees as she sat on the ground. She never expected that she would see such a day where Arlong and his crew were so brutally treated.
She broke into tears.
Arlong didn't even have a chance to retaliate and was bullied by three different people. The trauma that she had suffered from her childhood just got washed away. It was unbelievable for her. What followed next was a grand party.
A party which went on for 3 days!
Ken had heard of this previously but he always thought that this was a little exaggerated. But what the village had shown him was completely out of his expectations. A party which went on for 3 days was really mind blowing. People didn't sleep nor did they go to work.
It was just eating, dancing, singing and doing the dumbest things possible. Luffy was busy consuming at Sanji was making, Zoro was busy with wine and ale, Usopp had made a platform for himself and shouted after getting up on it.
"Let tell you the grand tales of Captain Usopp. How he killed Arlong with just one hit... That Captain Usopp is !!" And surprisingly, the villagers kind of worshipped him there. Many had seen of how Usopp had made a bow of light particles and shot at Arlong, who was underwater.
Ken just shook his head at this. Not many people approached him as many had seen how he defended Hachi so not many were enthusiastic about this friend that Nami had brought.
"Your na is Ken right?" Genzo ca forward and sat next to Ken, who right now was just sitting on a roof of a house and watching the people down having fun. He was busy eating an apple.
"Yes. I am sorry for letting them get away." Ken said. Genzo shook his head as he didn't care. They had got more than what they had asked for. Arlong was beaten down badly and that was enough
