Chouchou followed Zoro's scent through the streets of Fish-Man Island while the locals stared at the strange creature curiously, as they had never seen a dog before in their lives.

He continued down the streets until he reached the far end of the island, wondering how Zoro had ended up there, but what shocked the animal the most was that his scent ended at the bubble, making him wonder where Zoro had gone.

"WOOLF!!!" He started barking, but the only response from the other side of the bubble were the fish swimming at the bottom of the sea.

With no choice left, Chouchou had to simply turn around before heading back to the group going to the square, unsuccessful in finding his companion.

Deep under the sea... beneath the main island, the atmosphere wasn't at all pleasant or even shocking like above, since a group neither knew what was happening up at the port nor seemed very happy with the news that Whitebeard was still alive, which destroyed all their plans. How would they launch an attack on Ryugu Palace now?

"This is bad... Jones!" Dosun spoke with a worried tone.

"Yes... Moreover, that man who defeated Arlong in the East Blue is extremely powerful... Can we handle him?!" Zeo said with a somber tone.

"You saw what he did at Marineford, his crew is as powerful as him... besides..." Daruma said before glancing at a corner.

"My Shirahoshi is back!! But my powers no longer work on her!!!" Decken IX started crying.

"Why are you so down? Just drink a bit and it'll pass." Hyouzou spoke while belching a bit from his bottle of rum.

"Hody Jones!!!" Suddenly, a fish-man entered the place with an urgent tone.

"What now?!" Hody Jones was already in a bad mood as he looked at the fish-man.

"There's a human in the district!!" He exclaimed.

"A human? What is he doing here?!" Hody Jones couldn't help but be surprised.

"He's out there!!" The man pointed as they immediately went out to see, while a group of fish-men who shared Hody Jones's ideology more than celebrating Whitebeard's return on the main island, stared, forming a crowd around that human, who was none other than Zoro himself.

'I feel so weak...' Zoro murmured while he was in the middle of the sea, barely able to move in the water with geppo, feeling a great pressure on his powers. But he still managed to stay within the sea.

'Gosh... How can they get lost like this... don't they have any sense of direction?!' Zoro murmured while his cheeks puffed up as he held his breath.

He looked in front of him, a crowd was surrounding him at that moment while new fish-men approached him, looking at him with interest.

'Maybe they can help me.' Zoro thought and started making signs.

Hody Jones looked on, stepping in front of all his subordinates. "What is he doing?!" A fish-man asked as Zoro was making strange gestures, since he couldn't speak.

"I don't know... humans are so strange..." Another fish-man spoke.

"Hey... I know who he is! It's Roronoa Zoro!" Daruma said, recalling that he saw the poster of the Straw Hat Pirates, a group they had been interested in since they knew they were with the mermaid princess with them after defeating Arlong.
