[Nami thought she'd hidden her plan to gather 100 million Berries so well that the villagers knew nothing about it.]
[She never realized the people of Cocoyasi Village understood it all along.]
[They pretended to hate Nami for joining the Arlong Pirates, so that Arlong's crew wouldn't suspect anything and hurt her. At the same time, they wanted Nami free from worry.]
[I told Nami about this, and she broke down crying.]
[In fact, once Captain Nezumi attempted to seize Nami's 100 million Berries, the villagers planned to stop hiding their true feelings. They were ready to grab their weapons and confront the Arlong Pirates—even though they knew full well they couldn't possibly beat them.]
[I have to say, the bond between Nami and the villagers of Cocoyasi is moving indeed.]
[Honestly, seeing Nami cry like that only makes me want to personally kill Arlong even more.]
[But I'll hold off for now. Nami's already strong enough to deal with the Arlong Pirates herself—let her have her own revenge.]
Gion: Arton and Nami's group have arrived at Cocoyasi Village, then.
Hina: The villagers apparently knew everything all along.
Ain: All of this wouldn't have happened if not for crooked Marines among our ranks.
Hibari: That wretched Captain Nezumi—it's all his fault.
Tashigi: We absolutely have to arrest him.
Nojiko: Nami's home? Great, I have to hurry back.
Shyarly: We've reached that moment at last. Arlong…
[Speaking of which, even after beating Mihawk, the Navy still hasn't given me a bounty.]
[Could it really be because Shiki and Mihawk were both delisted, so the Navy won't issue a bounty for defeating them?]
[The Arlong Pirates still have their bounties, right? Once the word gets out that we defeated Arlong's crew, the Navy should finally slap a bounty on me.]
Doll: Arton really intends to become a wanted man, then.
Smoothie: Such a sly bunch, these Marines. They think refusing to put a price on Arton's head can draw him over to their side?
Black Maria: Fufu, I've already set out to sea—no way I fail to bring Arton over to our cause.
Yamato: As if Arton would ever join the Navy. A pirate's life is the freest there is!
[When Arlong's defeat is made public, I bet Jinbe will pay attention to it. With his yearning for coexistence between humans and fish-men, I doubt he'll come after me just for killing Arlong, but… if the Navy hides Arlong's crimes and twists the story about me killing Arlong, they might feed lies to Jinbe, making him come after me with the Sun Pirates.]
[Hmm… Knowing the Navy, that's within the realm of possibility.]
Kujaku: Hey now, the Navy wouldn't go that far, would they?
Doll: Just how mistrustful is Arton of the Navy?!
Ulti: He's right—Marines are a cunning bunch!
[If Jinbe really did come after me, I might have to teach him a lesson. Maybe I'd beat him early on—leading him to lose his Warlord status sooner. Still, it probably doesn't matter. He'd lose that seat anyway, once he refused to fight Whitebeard's forces when the Navy called him in.]
Gion: What? Jinbe refuses to join the war at Marineford?
Koala: So that's how it goes. Then Jinbe does indeed lose his Warlord status.
Belo Betty: Ah, that's why Arton brought up this "Warlord Shuffle." Moria, Doflamingo, Kuma, and now Jinbe… that's half the Seven Warlords replaced. No wonder it's called the Warlord Shake-Up.
Ain: Then who's going to fill those four vacant spots?
Whitey Bay: Poor Jinbe…
Camie: Jinbe-ossan actually loses his Warlord title?
Shirahoshi: How could something like that happen?!
Madam Shyarly: If Jinbe's no longer a Warlord, Fish-Man Island could be in trouble. Ugh, that future is such a tangled mess.
[I wonder if my presence in this world will affect Fish-Man Island's future… If I recall correctly, during Marineford, Ace was killed by Akainu, and Whitebeard was grievously wounded by him too, then finished off by Teach and his gang. Without Whitebeard, his crew couldn't keep protecting Fish-Man Island. And with Jinbe gone from the Warlords, Fish-Man Island really had it rough…]
Yamato: Ace is killed by a guy named "Akainu"? Very well—I'll remember that, Akainu!
Gion: So it's Sakazuki who kills Ace… and severely injures Whitebeard. But if he actually killed Ace, how did Vice Admiral Garp react at the time?
Doll: Maybe Garp didn't participate in the Summit War?
Domino: It's possible he opted out, knowing he couldn't stay calm there.
Kujaku: Teach perfectly completed the Warlord role, then.
Smoothie: Whitebeard really does die at Marineford…
Black Maria: In the end, he's finished off by that traitorous Blackbeard. How ironic.
Whitey Bay: Damn that Akainu, damn that Teach—I won't let it happen!
Makino: Ace! I'll do everything I can to stop that horrible future.
Kozuki Hiyori: Even Whitebeard dies in that war…
Belo Betty: If Whitebeard loses that war, then what becomes of the Revolutionary Army's involvement?
Koala: "The Navy wins in the end?"
Shyarly: "Fish-Man Island really does lose all its protection—both from the Navy and from pirate crews—just like that? Does that mean we go back to the way things were, with a bunch of pirates targeting us?"
Camie: "That's awful! Unless, that is, Arton helps us… Could he change that future?"
Shirahoshi: "Arton's really strong; I'm sure he can do something."
All the Diary Copy holders were startled that Arton would reveal such a future right at this moment. Whitey Bay's eyes had already turned a deep red.
Belo Betty was caught up worrying about the Revolutionary Army's fate in the Summit War, while Gion and the other Marines thought uneasily about Sakazuki's and Teach's achievements. But before they could probe any deeper, Arton's next entry diverted their attention.
