Neptune: Aaahhhhhhhhh~~~~!!! // Vander Decken has gone after my beloved Shirahoshi!!! // I beg of you all!! I will give you anything you desire!!! Just let me go after Decken!!!
Zoro: .........
Neptune: I will give you gold, silver, treasures, even the lives of my soldiers!!!
Ministers: H - Hold on a moment, Your Majesty...!!!
Neptune: He is going to take Shirahoshi from me!!! / Shirahoshi, my one greatest treasure~~~!!!
Jones: What a pathetic sight you are, Neptune...!!!

Jones: To think that my sworn enemies, the Straw Hat Pirates, would aid in my conquering of the Ryuuguu Palace.........!!
Nami: ?! // (Sworn enemies......?!) // ! // (.........?! He bears... Arlong's mark...)
RightMinister: ...Nghh...... I had heard from Jimbei that there was something afoot in the Fishman District...... / But I never expected you, former members of Neptune's own army, to be behind it...!! Have you no shame, Hordy?!!!
Jones: Jahahah! Shame?! // ...You say that as though I ever held any great pride in my place in that army. / The only reason I served as a soldier... / ...was to hone the skills I would need on the field of battle.
RightMinister: !! / You fiend...!!!
Jones: And it worked. I have become strong...!!!

4
Jones: Ever since I was a child, I have seen nothing but fishmen being oppressed by the detestable humans...!! / My greatest heroes were the Arlong Pirates, for having the strength and ambition to smash those filthy humans' faces in!!! // And we are the New Fishman Pirates... here to revive their broken will!!!
Nami: !!!
Jones: I strived to become strong, so that when Arlong began his great plan to reach beyond East Blue and conquer the world... / ...I would be ready to stand at his side, as his right-hand man! // But thanks to a certain bunch of filthy humans, that dream never came to pass!!!
Zoro: ..................
Usopp: .........!!! These fishmen are sympathisers with Arlong and his cronies?!!
Nami: ..................
Brook: Hmmm?! Arlong?!! / ...I don't think I've ever tasted that particular delicacy!! Yohohoho- / Ouch!! Usopp-san, why are you kicking me?!

People: !!!
Usopp: That grip strength is ridiculous!! What is he trying to do?!!

6
People: That's... just his natural strength, right? // Yeah... He's not even drugged up right now...
People: Aaaaarghhhh!! // The castle wall collapsed~~~~!!! // !!!
Zoro: Crap... He's flooding the place with seawater!!!
Brook: Aaahhhhhhh~~~~!!! / This isn't good at all~~~~~~!!!

Zoro: Guys... you go and untie the soldiers!!!
Usopp: Ehh?!
Brook: Could you listen to me?!! Nami-san seems to have vanished off somewhere... / And this water flooding in is sapping all of my strength...!! / Ahhhh...
Usopp: What?! Nami's vanished?!
Zoro: Our deal with this country is broken!! / We were unable to keep our promise to return all the hostages unharmed!!
LeftMinister: ! // Such honesty......!!

11

People: Don't play dumb, you filthy pirates!! // I hear another two young mermaids... / ...have vanished from the southern shore!! What have you done with them?!!
Sanji: For the love of... how would I know what happened to them?!!! / I mean, sure, I love mermaids so much that I'd love to abduct them, but that doesn't mean I'm the kidnapper!!!
