Chapter 30 - The Regressed Fish-Man Arlong!

Ren-kun was also very surprised. "Is Nami's world's doomsday not Imu?" Abnormal Doomsday… what could it be? As for Momonga, to be honest, given the background of his original world, it was already dilapidated, and he had to wear gas masks and other equipment just to go outside. Such a world shouldn't be an Uncertainty Doomsday. Then, it was more likely referring to Momonga after he entered the Otherworld from the game.

*****

In Cocoyasi Village, Nami glanced in the direction of the Arlong Pirates' location. She didn't care about the doomsday right now, because she was in the vortex of hell. She gritted her teeth and asked a question in the Chat Group.

Nami: "Excuse me, can humans truly defeat Fish-Men?"

March 7th: "What are Fish-men? Mermaids?"

Nami: "No, not mermaids, they're devils!"

Saeko Busujima: "Nami seems to resent and fear Fish-men greatly. Did something happen?"

Nami: "Fish-men, they are devils, despicable pirates. They occupied my hometown, Cocoyasi Village, plundered our property, and even killed my mother!"

Saeko Busujima: "I'm sorry to have brought up something so painful for you."

Ren: "Fish-men are not invincible. On the contrary, the truly strong in your world are humans. Arlong and his crew are nothing but failures."

Nami's eyes widened!

Nami: "Fish-men, whose physical abilities are ten times that of humans, are failures? Humans are truly strong? How is that possible?"

Ren: "Your horizons are too narrow. In your world, there's a sea called the New World, where pirates with bounties over 100 million Belly are everywhere. The four strongest people in the New World are called the Four Emperors, and they are all humans, or humans who have eaten Devil Fruits."

Ren: "Fish-men in your world are even just slaves to be captured by people."

Nami: "..."

New World... Four Emperors... Fish-men are just slaves... She had never heard of it. Just as Ren had said, her horizons were still too narrow.

Nami: "What about you! Can you defeat Fish-men?"

Ren: "Me? Arlong and those scums are a one-finger job."

Nami: "That's great! Can you help me then? I can give you money, no, I'll give you everything I have, please save Cocoyasi Village!"

Ren: "I'm very sorry... I also cannot go to your world, unless there is a Doom Companion."

Nami: "..."

She saw hope, then instantly fell into despair. Nami really wanted to cry. Suddenly, she saw Fish-men rushing towards them. At the same time, a new prompt appeared in the Doom Chat.

[Detected that group member Nami has come into contact with one of the world's Abnormal Doomsday factors, initiating Doom Companion!]

[Doom Companion]: Two people

[Companion Time]: 1 hour

[Companions]: Nami, Ren Kazama

[Companion Mission]: Eliminate the Arlong Pirates and the Regressed Fish-man, Arlong.

Ren: "???"

What the hell? Regressed Arlong? Does that mean Arlong returned to the past? Ren felt this Abnormal Doomsday was too strange! But now was not the time to think about such things.

Saeko Busujima: "Only Ren-kun has a Companion Mission."

Exusiai: "The term 'Companion Mission' sounds strange. What's a Regressor?"

Ren: "I might know something about that. I'll tell you later, I'm going first."

Ren glanced at the classroom. The moment he chose to confirm, the classroom stopped moving, or rather, world time stopped. A portal appeared, and Ren stepped directly into it.

Cocoyasi Village.

"Arlong? What do you want?" Nami stood in front of Arlong and the menacing Fish-men he led.

Arlong saw Nami. "Nami! Shahahahahaha, die!" A ferocious aura erupted from him.

Regressor. Arlong had returned to the past. With the memories from his future defeat, he was back here, in Cocoyasi Village! "It was during this period that I was defeated. I could have built a paradise for Fish-men! Damn Nami, damn Straw Hat Luffy! Now that I've come back, I, Arlong, will personally destroy my enemies! From now on, I will be invincible! The first one is you, Nami!!!"

Arlong suddenly burst forth.

"What!" Nami's eyes blurred, and Arlong was already in front of her. His webbed hand forcefully squeezed her neck, lifting her straight up.

"Shahahahahaha! Die, Nami!" Arlong laughed maniacally as he was about to personally kill his enemy.

"Ugh!" The sensation of choking instantly came over her. Nami kicked her legs, trying hard to pry his hand open. But against a Fish-man with ten times the physique of a normal human, she couldn't budge him an inch.

The Fish-men Arlong brought with him saw this scene. They were stunned at first, then burst into enthusiastic cheers.

"Arlong! Hahaha, kill her."

"Stupid human, kill her!"

Humans, in their eyes, were trash. Even if Nami was nominally a member of their Arlong Pirates, she was still trash, and if she died, she died. They were even happy to see such a bloody scene.

"Ugh..." The choking sensation grew stronger and stronger, rendering Nami unable to speak. She didn't understand what was happening. Why Arlong suddenly wanted to kill her. Didn't he still want her 100 million Belly? Her consciousness began to blur. These thoughts gradually faded, turning into a final sense of release.

'What a failed life... Let it end here... Belle-mère, I'm coming to find you...'

Nami slowly closed her eyes, giving up the struggle.
