The tsunami created by Nami will never be weaker than Whitebeard's Shockwave Fruit!
"So what?"
"I'm here. The future safety of Fish-Man Island will no longer depend on any pirate flag!"
"Whitebeard will eventually grow old, and I will become king!"
Nami spoke with absolute confidence, looking directly into Jinbe's eyes, her Haki strong as she said:
"I will turn this ocean red with the blood of any pirate who dares to threaten Fish-Man Island!"
"I will make sure no one in this world dares to buy or sell mermaids as slaves."
"I will make Fish-Man Island's name echo across the world!"
"That's my answer. Is it enough?"
With the ability to control the sea, and helped by the tidal sea spirit Fizz, Tide Caller Samehime Nami has enough power to challenge the whole world!
Of course, she may not win in a direct fight.
But by staying deep under the 10,000-meter-deep sea around Fish-Man Island, she can fight using guerrilla tactics.
Now and then, she summons Sea Kings, and huge waves wipe out warships and even islands.
It's harder to defeat her.
The power of Uranus or Whitebeard could easily destroy an island, but dealing with Nami or Fizz under the deep sea is far tougher than destroying ten kingdoms or islands.
Nami and Fizz aren't foolish. If they can't take a hit, they know how to hide.
Seeing Nami so confident, as if she was just stating facts, Jinbe fell silent again.
Then, he suddenly opened his eyes, a spark of light flashing in them, and said with resolve:
"I'm not sure whether you will lead Fish-Man Island to the light or into the abyss!"
Whether it's the overthrow of Neptune's throne or Nami's decision to give up Whitebeard's protection, it's enough to cause huge changes on Fish-Man Island.
"But no matter how much King Neptune trusts me or how much Father Whitebeard has done for me and Fish-Man Island,"
"You can't ignore what I've done for you."
"Come and knock me down, then prove everything you're saying."
"No matter what you plan, I only know one thing: without power, you can't accomplish anything!"
"I am the last defender of Fish-Man Island!"
Then, just as Jinbe was about to use his water powers, Nami easily controlled the sea spout, leaving him with a bruised nose, a swollen face, and dizzy.
Jinbe is capable of defeating enemies stronger than him in the water.
However, facing Nami, the Queen of the Sea, Jinbe's advantage as a Fish-Man has no effect at all.
On land, Jinbe could only match Ace, who had just left the sea and hadn't yet become Whitebeard's son.
Naturally, his strength is no match for Nami, who has already wiped out many pirate crews and quickly grown stronger.
Fish-Man Island is the gateway that countless pirates must pass through to get from the Grand Line to the New World. It's an excellent place to gain strength.
Every day, powerful pirate groups deliver goods right to your doorstep, and you just need to poke the coatings of their ships to harvest a lot of experience.
Nami and Fizz level up so fast that it's impossible not to improve.
The pirate ships that successfully reach Fish-Man Island are definitely not weak pirate crews.
Jinbe was being beaten badly by Nami.
Some other members of the Sun Pirates, watching Jinbe get easily beaten by Nami, wanted to step in to help.
However, when they looked around, they saw huge Sea Kings surrounding them without a sound.
Aladdin and the other capable members of the crew suddenly smiled brightly, realizing what was going on, and they reluctantly put down their weapons.
They stared behind Nami with expressions of horror and disbelief.
There, making faces at them, was the Fish-Man waving a trident—Fizz, the Tidal Sea Spirit!
Fizz, the Tidal Sea Spirit, can also communicate with and summon Sea Kings. Though not as powerful as Princess Shirahoshi's ability to summon Sea Kings, Fizz is still formidable.
In fact, Fizz could be seen as a version of Poseidon in the world of pirates.
There's a long-standing legend on Fish-Man Island that every few hundred years, a king is born from the Fish-Men, someone who can command the Sea Kings.
That king would lead Fish-Man Island into a bright new future.
But no matter how you look at it, the strange Fish-Man making faces at them doesn't look like the one to lead the Fish-Men into the future…
The true information about the Ancient Weapon Poseidon is top secret on Fish-Man Island.
However, the legend of a king who can summon Sea Kings has been known for ages.
Vander decken IX, who had discovered Shirahoshi's identity, had been threatening her with marriage, trying to control Poseidon's power.
Aladdin and the others watched helplessly as Jinbe was dragged into the sea by Nami, his nose bruised and his face swollen.
But Jinbe, covered in bruises, remained calm. He didn't care about the marks on his body. Instead, it seemed like he could control the sea with ease.
Nami, who had also been overwhelmed by him, and Fizz, the Tidal Sea Spirit behind Nami, who could summon Sea Kings, shared a relieved smile.
"I am the last defender of Fish-Man Island,"
"But I'm also the one who will lead Fish-Man Island into a new era!"
"King of the Sea?"
"That's great!"
Jinbe has recognized the power of Nami and Fizz.
At least on Fish-Man Island, deep in the sea, Jinbe can't think of anyone more suited to be the king of all Fish-Men than them.
Jinbe bowed to Nami. On Fish-Man Island, dissatisfaction with King Neptune of the Ryugu Kingdom grew stronger by the day.
It even reached the surface.
Countless Fish-Men who trusted Jinbe and Nami raised their banners and openly declared that Nami was the true king of the Fish-Men.
They called for Neptune to step down and make way for someone more capable.
A large number of soldiers in the Poseidon Army began to question Neptune's leadership as well.
If Nami hadn't refused to seize power through force and start a war, which would have caused heavy casualties among Fish-Men and mermaids, and if she hadn't given Neptune time to voluntarily abdicate, Fish-Man Island would have already undergone a major transformation!
Fish-Man Island is filled with excited Fish-Men, but it's also become a bit desolate. High above in Ryugu Castle,
The Great Knight of the Sea, King Neptune of the Ryugu Kingdom, sits on his throne with a deeply conflicted expression.
Jinbe, who was slightly injured, entered Ryugu Castle not long ago and told Neptune about the powerful abilities of Nami and Fizz, as well as Jinbe's own choice.
Jinbe can't stop Nami and Fizz, and the few Poseidon soldiers still loyal to Neptune can't stop them either.
Neptune doesn't oppose this. After all, he was once an old friend of Roger and Whitebeard.
He knows very well the power of the strongest warriors in the sea.
For the future of Fish-Man Island, and for the safety of himself and his children, Neptune has no issue with stepping down from the throne.
After all, if you can't fight, you can still save your life by surrendering.
"But the real question is, shouldn't the current Poseidon, the one who can summon and communicate with Sea Kings, be his own daughter Shirahoshi?"
"Could there be two Poseidons ( the Ancient Weapons) in this generation?"
"But that tidal sea spirit Fizz, no matter how you look at it, is neither a mermaid nor a princess..."
Neptune was confused.
The ordinary Fish-Men on the island only know the legend of the king who can summon and communicate with Sea Kings.
But Neptune, as the king of Ryugu Kingdom for many generations, understands the true meaning of that legend.
It refers to the real Ancient Weapon Poseidon—the mermaid princess born once every few centuries.
Neptune was lost in thought, recalling his pursuit of Captain Vander decken IX, who had been threatening Shirahoshi.
His confusion turned into realization, and then, a look of excitement crossed his face.
"Hohohoho, no matter who Poseidon is, their power will be mine!"
