Angry Mob!

Nami pointed the barrel pistol at Arlong with shaky hands, she had never killed anyone so she was quite scared. She remembered what this guy had done to her mom and her Village, she hated him so much for that.

"Haha, are you going to shoot me Nami, do you have to guts to do that!?" Arlong growled in anger but he was secretly scared and praying that she didn't shoot him. Rein looked Nami and thought that this might be a little too much for her. Rein slowly reached over and grabbed the pistol and pushed it downward, taking it away. Even with all that, she was still Nami and couldn't go through with it, so he wouldn't force her.

However, at that moment, five marine soldiers suddenly appeared on the scene. The Marine leading the group had a hoodie over his head with mouse ears sticking out of it. The man sported the typical marine wear with whisker coming out of his face.

Nezumi!

"What is going on here? Why are you attacking these fishmen out of nowhere like this, this is a crime!" Nezumi pointed towards Nami and Rein that were standing next to Arlong who was encased in ice. Nezumi was the corrupted marine that was behind the scenes covering everything up that was going on here.

"Ew, it's a corrupted marine who is working with these fishmen to interrogate the citizen of this village! How could the marines have such trash, this is an insult to the marines!" Rein spat poisonous words towards the group of marines the minutes he saw their smug expressions.

"How dare you speak to the marines like that!?" Nezumi was pissed but calmed down and said "What are you talking about, we just got here since we heard that some criminal was attacking innocent fishmen for no reason. We are the marines, we uphold justice for those who can't protect themselves, hehe!" There was no proof of what he was doing so he wasn't worried about what this random guy was saying.

"Yes, that's right, they attacked and killed my friends who tried to start a life here, they're cruel and evil!" Arlong took the time to speak after hearing what Nezumi said, he felt like he could turn this situation around.

"Oh, I have proof, I can even show the marines when the time comes." Rein could watch episodes of one piece from the system for free and could transfer them over for others to see. He could easily show the marines what was going on here. When Rein was a kid, he had started to tell his grandpa Garp to check this island out and to get rid of the pirates here but held back on that.

"Who do you think you are!? You criminals will die here, proof my ass!" Right as he finished, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Erica stood up from her seat and looked behind Nezumi and so did everyone else present.

"Who? You guys!?" Nezumi looked back and was shocked, it was the whole Cocoyasi Village! They were being led by Nojiko who had a stiff frown on her face. Nezumi was speechless, he had come here to get paid but as he was walking he heard talking and began to sneak over with his men. He was shocked to see that Arlong Park was frozen and that Arlong himself had been encased in ice.

"Don't play dumb, we know you're lying fake pieces of sh**! I never could have imagined that my theory was right all along." Nojiko wasn't stupid, the villager at some point wondered always why marines never came to help them.

They hoped every day that they would show up but they never did. Something strange was going on with that, they weren't stupid. Someone had caught a glimpse of Nezumi making transactions with Arlong's men and knew what was going on immediately.

"Little girl! Don't make false accusations, we just came here to..." Nezumi paused, why was he really here, huh?

"Hoho, you see everyone, look at him, he is a guilty bastard! He is colluding with Arlong and is probably here to get a piece of the money we give Arlong every month!" Nojiko riled up the crowd of people and pointed at Nezumi and his group.

"Motherfucker, give me back my money!"

"You mouse bastard, you corrupted piece of sh**!"

"Let's beat these marines and teach them a lesson and get our money back, I'm done being a slave for these fuckers!"

The crowd of people was enraged, the force they believed in so much was actually against them and was helping the enemy extort them! "You fool, don't go overboard now, I am a marine, you better stop!" The people were too mad to even listen to his little voice, his voice was drowned out by the angry voices of the crowd.

Nezumi looked at Rein and Nami with hate, this was especially so for Rein. He was definitely someone that wasn't from this village. They ruined his money flow, Rein only waved at Nezumi, then he was suddenly punched in the face!

"Ah!" He and his men were jumped! They were on the ground being kicked and punched alike. Suddenly, an old lady came over and kicked Nezumi in his crotch.

"AHHH!" Nezumi held his McNuggets but kept receiving a beating until he had two black eyes and missing teeth! Arlong was in awe, he would stand no chance against this many people alone, was he next to receive a beating?

Eventually, Nezumi and his group of men fainted from the beating and the crowd stopped their assault.

"Hey, let's go into Arlong Park and take our money back, our days of suffering will end today!"

Everyone cheered and looked at Rein with gratitude, they all bowed and rushed to the park by walking on the ice. The old lady was shockingly the fastest of the group! Erica laughed seeing the granny run so fast, was she that greedy?

Nojiko was the only one left amongst the people while they all ran towards the park. They gave Arlong plenty of glares of hate before rushing to the park. Nojiko slowly walked over to Rein and Nami, who was spectating the whole time.

"Is it really over, have we been liberated from this evil demon that has plagued us for nearly a decade?" Nojiko eyes were strangely cold looking at Arlong, he had caused her sister to suffer and even killed their mother Bellemere. Looking at her, Rein could tell that if he gave the pistol to her, she probably wouldn't hesitate to kill the guy.

"It is done, but all we have left is him." Rein didn't look back at Alrong and just used his thumb to point over his shoulder towards him.

"Nami, I saw you with that pistol earlier, you did the right thing. You don't have to be.... like him." She was referring to Arlong but Rein was actually glad she didn't kill Arlong. She was really a good person and would kill if her village was in danger, which it wasn't anymore, she knew Arlong was finished.

"I want the bounty for this guy, so I'll turn him in on this island where a base should be located." Rein Said "Also, tie those corrupted marines up until the transaction is complete, I don't want any trouble from them when trying to get my money." Rein knew that once Nezumi got back to base around here, he would make up some bullshit lie and Rein would have a bounty on his head. He wanted his money first, then he would let these sorry marines go.

"You!" Arlong could only grind his teeth in anger. "If you let me go, I can give you more treasure, I got plenty of it!" Arlong wasn't afraid of the marines but once he was caught he would be locked up for good without the ability to escape. He had heard of Impel down and knew it was the legendary place that no criminal could escape from.

Suddenly, an invisible cloud came over Arlong's head like a bubble and he fainted after three seconds. "What? What happened to him? He just fainted out of nowhere!" Nojiko and Nami wanted to give him some hateful words but he fainted before they could.

"Must be the ice, it's pretty cold so he could have fainted from that." Rein put up his hand and shrugged. Erica knew very well what had happened and only smiled.

"Erica, take this guy to the nearby Marine base and get our twenty million Beli rewards." Erica just got done eating her sundae and walked over without saying anything. She knew the location of the base so it wasn't a problem for her. Rein was concerned about his money, he couldn't let his hunt go to waste.

"Oh, wait, take these guys as well." Suddenly, the cutthroat pirates appeared out of nowhere, they were tied up with rope. Nami and Nojiko stepped back in surprise, where did these people come from?

Before they could say anything, or before anyone else could talk, someone else appeared. "So this is where you guys were, I was walking all over this place trying to find you guys until some old lady gave me directions."

Kuina, who appeared out of the forest, had her cheeks puffed out in annoyance. She had been walking around since they were eating at the Nami and Nojiko's house, now that was quite the amount of time.

"Oh, you're just on time, come and help Erica carry these pirates to the ship to be turned in for money." Rein waved at Kuina like she was a savior, Kuina looked at the pirates on the ground who had been tied up and her lips twitched. She was walking around for what she considered a long time now. It wasn't like she had a bad sense of direction but she just couldn't find them until she got directions.

Growl!

Kuina's stomach began to growl, yes, she was hungry for the longest time now. "Did you guys just hear a monster just now, are we under attack!?" Rein teased and yelled out in fake surprise.

"Damnit, Rein, you wanna get beat!?" Kuina blushed and glared at Rein.

"Oh, my, my beautiful sister, let me cook you up something good," Nojiko smiled and insisted on cooking something for her.

"Really, we have no one who can cook on the ship except Erica but she barely does it." Kuina was elated to hear Nojiko's request.

"Yeah, after you help Erica with these pirates. I'll even give you some ice cream, tasty ice cream!" Tasty ice cream? Was there even bad icecream? Rein hoped that one day he could receive an island creation card so he could make some parts of his island made out of food like big mom's islands.

That was the dream for sure!

"Damn you, Rein, Humph, whatever." Kuina didn't think about it much and began to help Erica with the pirates. Erica carried the cutthroat pirates in stacks, it wasn't hard for her with the strength she had. Kuina carried Arlong, this was all she could carry. They unthawed the ice and handcuffed Arlong in some steel handcuffs.

Once they were gone, Nami seemed to have thought of something. "So, your name is Rein, right?"

"Yep, it is." Rein nodded and said

Nami walked up to Rein and posed in a sexy posture and said. "So, how about we split those berries, we did work together, you know." Nami's way of acting had suddenly changed, this was definitely when she heard 20 million berries! She wasn't even aware that Arlong was worth so much! She was also feeling very relieved that Arlong was no more.

"Uh!" Rein was speechless. Suddenly, Nami was bonked over the head by Nojiko.

"Ouch!" Nami held her head in pain.

"Don't just make advances on people because you hear about money!" Nojiko scolded. Nami stuck out her tongue in a cute and playful fashion with a smile. "You two are too greedy, it may cause you both to self-destruct one day, sigh!" Nojiko could only sigh.

"Well, I'll be leaving soon, and I have a question for both of you. Allow me to explain, so hear me out."

Rein was making his move!
