Your POV:

Luffy: I'm fine. i'm not really interested in her past. i'm gonna take a walk.

Usopp: Take a walk ? You're not going to listen ?

Luffy: No, I'm cool.

"Oh well, take care."

Nojiko: ... What's with him ?

Zoro: Don't mind him. that's just the kind of guy he is. But we'll listen to what you have to say. Though I doubt hearing your story will change anything.

Nojiko: ... But you're sleeping...

Usopp: Don't just fall asleep as soon as you say that !

"That's just the kind of guy he is... We're just a bunch of special cases..."

Usopp: Well, I, for one, will listen to understand what's going on.

Sanji: Me too.

Nojiko: I see... No wonder they're giving Nami so much trouble...

Nami: ... Hmm... I fell asleep... ? Nojiko ? Where did she go... ?

Nami: 'Just a little more, Bellemere... Just a little more and everything will be back the way it used to be. Cocoyashi village, the tangerine farm... As well as my dream...

Nojiko: Ever since that day 8 years ago, that girl decided to not show her tears to anyone, and never ask for help. All because she doesn't want to see anyone to be killed by Arlong, just like our mother was... Do you have any idea how painful it was for her, to make that decision to fight alone and continue to live on, when she was barely 10 years old ?

Usopp: So in order to save her village, she forced herself to join the very pirates who killed her mother...

Sanji: HOW DARE THEY CAUSE PAIN TO MY BELOVED NAMI ! I'LL KILL THOSE PIRATES !!

*BONK*

Sanji: W- What was that for ?!

"Haven't you heard ? If we start claiming everywhere that Nami is our friend, it might cause even more trouble for her. They're starting to doubt her, we'll have to act quick and swift."

Nojiko: Just, please... Don't make her suffer anymore. For her, who had to fight alone her entire life, there's nothing more painful than having others call her a friend...

"Make her suffer ? I think you've misinterpreted our intentions here. The only one who's going to suffer now, is Arlong. ZORO !!"

Zoro: Ugn... What ?!

"Wake the fuck up, swordsman, we have a park to burn."

Genzo: What business do the navy have with Nami ?

Nezumi: Chi chi chi... That's none of your concerns, just lead the way.

Luffy: ... Why does that man... Have a pinwheel on his head ?!

Nami: Genzo... With the marines... ?

Nezumi: Chichichi... I'm captain Nezumi of the Navy 16th branch. You must be Nami, the criminal.

Nami: Criminal ? Well, I guess that's true considering how I am a pirate. But I'll have you know that I'm a crew officer for the Arlong pirates. I'm sure a navy captain such as yourself should be well aware, that Arlong won't sit still if you happened to harm me. So tell me, what do you want from me ?

Nezumi: Chichichi... I have no idea what you're talking about. You're a pirate ? The information I received mentioned no such thing. Don't worry, we're not here to hurt you, but I have received reports of your thievery...

Nezumi: From what I've heard, you steal treasure from pirates. Since your victims were pirates, we have no intention of laying any strong charges against you. However, a thief is a thief, and a crime is a crime. Do you understand what I'm getting at ? It's only natural that stolen goods of criminals, should be given to the government so they can be returned to their rightful owners.

Nami: What did you say ?!

Nezumi: I'm saying that you need to hand over all your stolen gods to us, this instant ! Search her house !

Soldiers: Yessir !

Nami: W- WAIT !! You can't just enter other people's homes without permission ! I SAID STOP !!!

Nami: What's the meaning of this... ?! Is this what the navy should be doing ?! Don't you all have something more important to take care of ?! The Arlong pirates are going around killing people and destroying villages on this island ! You know that, don't you ?! All the people on this island are SLAVES under their rule ! Yet you ignore that crisis and instead decide to confiscate the stolen goods of one petty thief ?! Is that how the government prioritizes things ?!!

Nezumi: Chichichi... ! Criminals shouldn't speak so freely, little girl ! Ignore her and continue on with the search !

Nami: Even though the people of this island have been waiting for years for the navy to help... You pass them by without even so much as a glance and come right for me ?!

Soldier: captain, those tangerine fields seem rather suspicious...

Nezumi: Dig up the fields then !

Nami: DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH BELLEMERE'S TANGERINES WITH YOUR FILTHY HANDS !! I'll never hand over my money to the like of you !! That money is...

Genzo: That money is for the sake of every resident here in Cocoyashi village !! Do you still believe you have the right to take that money away ?!

Nezumi: Hmm ? Is that the way a mere villager should be addressing a marine captain... ?

Nami: Gen... ? How did you... Know that... ?

Genzo: I knew all along, Nami... Back then, we couldn't believe what you had done no matter what, so we forced Nojiko to tell us the truth. Everyone in the village knew all along. But we feared that if you knew that we knew, our hopes would pressure you into staying if you ever wanted to run away from it all. That's why we pretended not to know.

Nami: Wha...

Nezumi: What on Earth is the meaning of this ? Does this mean that all the villagers in this town were abetting a thief so we should arrest all of you ?

Nojiko: They're saying that the government is hopeless, so they have no choice but to fend for themselves !!

Nami: Nojiko...

Nojiko: If you have no intention of saving this village, then get the hell out this instant ! Arlong might attack your ship if you linger around for too long, you know !

Nezumi: Arlong ? Attack our ship ? I wonder about that... Chichichi...

Nami: What ?

Nezumi: Have you still not found it ?! We're not looking for a single grain of rice here ! She should have 100 million berry hidden here ! It'd be impossible not to find it !!

Genzo: What ?! How could you possibly know how much there is ?!

Nezumi: Hm ? Oh, I just had a feeling she'd have that much, chichichi...

Nami: It can't be... ! WAS THIS ARLONG'S IDEA ?!

Nezumi: I wouldn't go that far... As workers of the government, we're only doing our natural duty of persecuting thieves...

Genzo: WHY YOU CORRUPT BASTARDS !!

Nojiko: HOW COULD MARINES LET THEMSELVES BE ORDERED AROUND BY A PIRATE !!

Nezumi: Take them away from here. They're hindering the search.

Soldiers: Yessir !

"Pretty sure we could have come with a better timing here..."

Genzo: 8 years ago, we swore not to throw our lives away ! No matter how painful it may be living under their rule, we swore that as long as Nami was fine, we would limit ourselves to a fight of endurance ! BUT THIS IS HOW THEY ANSWERED US ! Now that our only chance of liberation has been denied, there is no longer any hope for this island ! But we shall never forgive those fishmen, who dared to toy around with the kindness of that girl ! Any objections ?

Villagers: OF COURSE NOT ! NOW LET'S GO ! AS IF WE'D ACCEPT THEIR RULE NOW THAT THINGS HAVE COME TO THIS ! EVERYONE IN THE WHOLE VILLAGE HAS ALWAYS BEEN PREPARED TO FIGHT !

Genzo: So let's do this !!

Nami: WAIT, EVERYONE !! Please just wait a little more ! I'll try my best again so please ! I promise I'll raise enough money once more ! It'll actually be easier this time !

Genzo: That's enough... ! You know that doing such a thing would be futile.. You've carried all our hope alone for long enough. You've fought splendidly... ! I know that working with them must've been more painful than a thousand searing knives. You've fought well.

Nami: Gen...

Genzo: You can now leave, this village.

Nami: What ?! B-

Nojiko: Nami... You're cunning and you've got what it takes to survive out there ! Besides, you've got a dream to fulfill !

Nami: Nojiko... ! No ! Please stop, everyone ! I don't want to see them hurt any one of you again ! ... You'll die, you know ?!

Genzo: We know. It's no use, our hearts are set !

Nojiko: Nami...

Genzo: NOW MOVE OUT OF OUR WAY, NAMI !! LET'S GO, EVERYONE ! EVEN IF MAY NOT WIN, LET'S SHOW THEM OUR SPIRIT !!

Nami: ... Arlong ! Arlong !! ARLONG !!! ARLONG !!!!

Nami: Luffy... ! What is it ?! You don't even know the first thing about anything !!

Luffy: Nope, I don't know anything.

Nami: This has nothing to do with you... ! Didn't I already tell you, TO LEAVE THIS ISLAND ?!

Luffy: Yeah, you did.

Nami: ... Luffy... Help me...

Luffy: OF COURSE I WILL !!

Luffy: Don't touch my hat !!

Nami: Luffy...

Luffy: Let's go !!

Y/n/Zoro/Usopp/Sanji: Roger !
