Last Time on TSOTSH...
As Naruto stood at the entrance of Alrong Park, he muttered, "Alrong's there, huh?" He gazed up at the fluttering flag fluttering in the wind, a mix of apprehension and determination coursing through him. Alrong knows something about Nami; he's sure of it. Taking a deep breath, he pushed open the gate and stepped through it.
...
Naruto took a deep breath and then yelled, "Arlong!" His voice echoed through Arlong Park. He looked around. "Is there a weird fish guy named Arlong around here?" he yelled again.
Suddenly, Naruto hears a voice behind him, "Who the hell is yelling so early in the morning?"
Naruto turns around to see a Fishman approaching him. The Fishman looks at Naruto and yells, "Hey, Kid! What are you doing here? This place is forbidden to humans!"
"Woah, You really are a Fishman!" Naruto yells. "That's so cool!" he says.
The Fishman, however, is not impressed. "Before I kill you, what are you doing here?" he asks Naruto.
Unfazed by the fisherman's aggression, Naruto asks, "Are you Arlong?" hoping he finds the right person.
"What?" the Fishman was taken aback. "No, I'm not Arlong! The boss is in the tower," he said.
"Can you take me to him?" Naruto asks.
"What's a kid like you need with the boss?" The Fishman asks suspiciously.
"I lost one of my friends," Naruto said, looking down. "I want to see if Arlong knows anything since he controls the island."
The Fishman looked at Naruto for a few moments before shrugging. "Eh, why not?" he said. "I'll take you to the boss," he said.
Naruto gave him a bright smile. "Wow, thanks, Mr. Fish!" he said as he followed the Fishman into the giant building.

Nami's reflection stared back at her from the mirror, her eyes tracing the intricate patterns of ink etched into her skin. "I can't believe I'm back here," she whispered, the weight of memories flooding her thoughts as she traced a finger over her tattoo.
Her gaze lingered on the swirling patterns etched into her skin, each mark telling a story of pain and betrayal. "Damn it..." Nami whispered, her voice choked with emotion as tears welled in her eyes, threatening to spill over.
Before she could gather herself, a voice pierced through the silence, shattering the fragile moment of introspection. "Nami, the boss wants you," a Fishman's voice called out from beyond the door, a stark reminder of the reality waiting beyond the confines of her sanctuary.
