[~Help Me~] One Piece X Reader Fanfiction

~Chapter 44~

Normal P.O.V

Jinbe told them it's been ten years since Otohime's death and her 3 sons managed to gather many signatures for the peace quest between humans and Fish-men, with Neptune and Shirahoshi appealing to the masses even through the island been battling discrimination for 16 years.

Jinbe closed by taking responsibility for Arlong. "I would stop him, I swear. But the Marines Arlong had bought off kept information from reaching Marine Headquarters, I didn't know of his actions." He said. "I'm truly sorry! I'll take any punishment from you!" Jinbe fell on his knees, bowing in front of Nami.

"Go ahead and do seppuku!" Sanji angrily demanded to kill himself to atone for his mistake, but Nami stopped him. Even though Jinbe is humbly willing to take any punishment from her.

"I don't blame you jinbe-san." She stated. "It's Arlong's mistake. I'm the Navigator of the stawhat pirates. You helped my captain when he was all by himself. You're now our Nakama." Nami looked at Jinbe smiling. "I have no resentment to fish-men, so you don't need to apologize to me." Nami's heartwarming speech had touched Jinbe and Hatchan to tears, with the former stating he is indebted to them.

Franky started crying, as usual, after hearing the story, while Luffy, as usual, fell asleep during the whole conversation, so Sanji kicked him awake.

Nami also spoke with Shirahoshi, claiming that her mother was an amazing woman which the princess also agreed with, stating she feels comfortable around Nami even if they have just met.

The talk then moved to Hody, with Hatchan stating that he is even worse when it came to hating humans. The difference between them being that while Arlong would not hurt his own kind, Hody has no such reservations especially if they feel compassion to humans.

Suddenly, Chopper spotted a Den Den Mushi coming out of the forest. Den stated it is a visual one hooked up to a monitor, Hody's image then came on a nearby TV screen, and he began to address the entire island.

All across the island, the citizens were being forced to step on the fumi-e of Queen Otohime much to their reluctance. Hody's broadcast soon began and he started by proclaiming that the Ryugu Kingdom has fallen and that he is the new king of the island.

He ordered that those who sympathize with humans are to leave the island and that he is allowing citizens from the Fish-Man District, whom are basically a bunch of pirates onto the island as well, much to the terror of the citizens.

Hody went on about how humans were not to be trusted, mentioning Otohime's death to the anger of Fukaboshi, Manboshi and Ryuboshi and that the Ryugu Kingdom is leading them down the path of death.

He then showcased King Neptune chained up, calling him weak and proclaimed that he will kill the king in three hours, much to the horror of his children. Nami muses that it was their fault that it happened, when Jinbe protests Camie vouched for the Straw Hats claiming the Ammo Knights attacked them first.

Hody Jones continued his speech and declared that he will behead King Neptune in three hours, at the plaza.

Hody then showed the box full of petitions for Levely, deciding that the people whose names were on the petitions are traitors to the country and he will find and kill every one of them.

Lastly, he called out to Luffy, showing him Zoro, Usopp, and Brook in a cage in a room slowly filling with water, saying he will drown them after the king is executed, Then he will come for Luffy for stopping Arlong, showing his new bounty poster of 400,000,000 Beli and proclaiming he will take his head before cutting the transmission.
