Hachi's Mission, New Bounty Posters

Sam looked at the Kneeling Hachi, Nami and the other crew members also realised the situation and about Sam's declaration of removing the Sun Mark away from Arlong. Hachi said " If you can't forgive him, Then please take away my head. " When the people were about to shout and retort. Nami stopped them by requesting Genzo to quell their anger. Soon the ramblings of the people stopped.

Sam said " No need, I will not take away your head, But you must atone for his sins. So you must fulfill my one command. Will you do it? "

Hachi without any hesitation " I will do it, no matter what it takes. " Then Sam left Arlong untouched. Nami and the villagers were curious what was Sam going to ask Hachi. Sam said " Hachi you must make sure that all of Arlong's actions here should be reported to the Royal Family of the Fishman Island. And it must be known to the general Populace of the fishman Island. "

" The people of the fishman Island must know the deeds which Arlong had done is unforgivable and he is no better than the humans that hunted the fishman. You must prove it to them that in Humans there are still some good humans other than the ones that they just saw and show them that the world they knew is bigger than what they knew."

The command which Sam gave to Hachi confused the people of the Village. Some people who lost their loved ones were mad and shouted " Why the hell does that hateful Fishmen must know about us being good people. Why must us people must prove ourselves to the residents of Fishmen Island. Such cruel race should not have existed in the first place. "

Sam who heard this enraged about the fact, Hatred for the fishman race is spread due to Arlong's Hate to this extent. Sam shouted " Shut Up " and released intense killing intent from his body. Zoro, Sanji and Luffy also watched Sam releasing his killing intent. Sanji was ready to stop him if Sam was about to do something reckless. Nami, Nojiko and Genzo all are looking at Sam with fear. The people also looking at him with fear.

Sam who came out of his anger realised his actions and retracted his killing intent. He looked at Hachi without bothering the others around him " Hachi, there is another thing I request you to do. " Hachi understood the meaning since Sam implied it as request. Hachi " Ofcourse I will do my best. "

Sam continued " Pass a message to one of the seven warlords Jinbe. That he must come to East Blue and personally apologise to all the people who is affected due to Arlong. He must kneel before the Grave of a person named Bellemere for the Injustice that caused to his daughter because of his actions. "

The crowd stayed Silent, Yosaku and Johnny were scared stiff because of Sam's words even Nezumi at the side was having fear of about to be fainted. Yosaku shouted " Brother Sam, are you out of your mind, He is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He is far stronger than Arlong. If you made him angry he may destroy the entire island. " The people around them also was feeling the Gravity of the situation.

Nami on the side also understood the seriousness and was about to say that it was alright but Sam didn't give her any chance to say anything. Sam continues " Hachi, now you know the severity of the situation and how much they fear Jinbe, this message must be passed to Jinbe and this is the only way that he could clear away the misunderstanding. "

" After you have completed the task given to you, you could live the way you loved to Hachi, but this must be done. And beware of the Fishman named Hody Jones. That's all Now leave." After hearing Sam, he left the island and started moving to the fishman island.

Sam turned and looked at Luffy and deeply bowed at him " Sorry captain, I got my emotions get the best of me. " Luffy just looked at him. Zoro, Sanji and Usopp also looked at him with mixed feelings. And Sam turned and faced Nami and the villagers " I am deeply sorry for my previous actions, but I have to say you one thing, If you thing that these 8 years that you were under Arlong is cruel fate. Then you are dead wrong. The fate that fishman suffered because of humans for nearly 800 years is far worse than you could possibly ever imagine. "

The villagers were shocked by what Sam is saying and Nami, Sanji and Usopp are all getting where Sam is going at and connected all the previous things that Sam said when he saw Arlong. Sam again continued " Arlong used to call humans inferior and Fishman superior only to get rid of his own inferiority complex. And he vented all his hatred for humans in you guys. "

" Genzo, when Jinbe comes to Apologise kindly ask him about, their queen Otohime and the sacrifices she has done for Humans and Fishman to coexist. He will answer you. And I assure you if Hachi's message reached Jinbe he will come and do what I exactly said to him. "

He turned to Nami " When we reach Grand line I will tell you the answer you need. But all you have to know now is that you are now free. " Nami just nodded absentmindedly. The information that she learnt is too much for her to digest. Nezumi who was on the side was shocked by how much this pirate in front of him know about the fishman. He silently Gestured to take pictures of Luffy and Sam So that he could send it to the Head Quarters. So that they could place bounty on them.

Soon all the Arlong Pirates were all other than Hachi were chained and was sent to the Marine Ship which just arrived with the Nezumi's riches. And all his riches were handed over to Genzo for restoring the village.

Nezumi left silently without making any Noise since he was afraid of Sam. Sam stopped Nezumi by suddenly appearing before him by using Body Flickering Jutsu made him panicked " When reporting to the marine Head Quarters report my name as Portgas. D Sam. " and straight away kicked him which made him blasted him to his ship.

Though there was some tensions in the morning due to Sam's speech, but later due to Luffy soon everything changed to party mode. And everyone got into partying mode. Sam who sat alone was sat alone in a shore watching the waves. He was thinking himself of the actions he had done and he decides that someone in the team should take the burden for the crew. And must keep the safety of the crew. He must have develop the proper intelligence Channel and it must be on the same league as the Intelligence departments of the Four Emperors. and it will be helpful when Luffy becomes the fifth emperor.

As he was lost in thought, He felt a person approaching. When he turned back he saw, it was Sanji coming with some food. He said " Hey Zombie bastard, These are some of Cocoyashi Village's specialities and This is sweet Tangerines which grown in Nami san's Garden. Thought you would like taste some. "

Sam who saw him, felt warm in his heart. Some how he felt, so this is what it means to have a brother. And slowly a certain old man with pinned moustache face came to his mind. His heart was filled with warm feeling. He took the Food and started tasting it. He exclaimed " Wow, this meat here is so good. The flavour is not much spicy but the taste gives a entirely a different feeling. " And Sanji smiled watching Sam exclaiming about the foods. He was kind of happy that the Sam that he saw in Restaurant is back.

At Bellemere's Grave.

Nami was smiling and talking to Bellemere about how she was now free, Nojiko and Genzo were watching Nami with a happy face as she declared that she will become a pirate. And Genzo was shouting at her.

Nami suddenly stopped smiling " Hey Genzo, Nojiko why do you think Sam is going this far for the fishmans despite being not one? "

They both do not know what to answer but what Nami said next shocked them even more. " I want to understand him, and know more about him. In my 8 years of life, I hated both Pirates and Fishman but I was about to become a Pirate and want to understand a guy why he loves fishman. Quite Ironic don't you think. "

Nojiko just smiled at her sister, but Genzo was turned to a different person. He suddenly felt some crisis, he felt exactly how a father feeling when he was about to be stolen. He made sure that he will give a firm Warning to Sam to not harm Nami in any way.

Back to Sam's Position

Sam started sneezing and thought ' Somebody must be thinking bad about me. ' But he again started eating and again he started eating the Tangerine and felt " So Sweet "

Sanji on the side from the start to finish did not ask anything about the Fishman pirates are anything about his previous actions. Soon Sam went to the town to obtain enough water balloons and rubber balls. Before he reaches Logue Town he must learn the Rasengan.

On his way to the ship after shopping, he saw Genzo walking towards him and said " Hey Brat, I Don't know What is the deal between you and the Fishmans but I will never forgive you if you ever make Nami Cry. "

Sam was confused by this old man " Shouldn't he say these words to Luffy. " Then he just threw it to the back of his mind and walked towards the ship. There was Usopp, Sanji, Zoro and Luffy were waiting for him and Nami.

He went to the ship, the awkward moment from yesterday had been disappeared, Luffy welcomed Sam with a Grin and asked " Hey Sam, Where the hell have you been yesterday night, you missed one hell of a party. " Usopp also have stars shining in his eyes " Hey Sam, Can you show me your ninja techniques after we leave the village? "

Sanji and Zoro on the another hand didn't care about anything. Sam smiled at Usopp and said to him that he will show it to him later. Later when the whole village gathered to send of their saviours all of them were waiting for Nami. And Nami as in the original did the most beautiful pick pocketing their wallets and started to obtain their Curses.

Were Luffy laughs at the situation and Zoro, Usopp were trying to keep their belongings safe. Sanji as usual drooling over Nami. Nami glanced at Sam for a moment with a blush and then quickly turned and started to say her good bye with the laughs.

Sam saw here Arlong tattoo has been removed and New Pinwheel and Tangerine tattoo has been added. Soon the ship was in the middle of the sea all of them started to have their own works, Usopp is preparing his new weapon with a powerful Chilli Sauce, Sanji protecting Nami's Tangerine trees, Zoro having his nap. Luffy sneaking on Sanji to get the Tangerines. Nami bickering with the News Coo.

Sam was thinking about, how to meet and have a conversation with Dragon. As suddenly everyone screamed and Nami was holding two Bounty Posters. Sam went to see it with interest as he know that he must also have a bounty.

" Monkey. D Luffy 30,000,000 Berries "

" Portgas. D Sam 20,000,000 Berries "

And he was happy for the starting bounty, He thinks it is not bad start. He wants to go and see Logue town and meet the legendary Character Monkey. D Dragon.
