Chapter VI: Straw Hats vs Arlong Pirates

"Are you sure this is the way Nami was heading?" Luffy asked concerned wondering if they were going the right way.

"Believe me, we're going the right way." Yosaku replied as he gazed at the rubber man who slouched.

"Luffy, calm down. We're all worried about Nami, but we also need to worry about Zoro who's injured and Usopp who's with him." Ben reminded the straw hat who nodded his head in agreement.

"Where are we heading?" Sanji asked as he looked over at Yosaku.

"Conomi Island, me and Johnny believe that it's related to the Seven Warlords of the Sea." Yosaku explained gaining Ben's attention.

"Seven Warlords of the Sea? Mind explaining what or who they are?" Ben asked wanting to know who and what the Warlords of the Sea were.

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea, or simply the Seven Warlords, were a selection of seven powerful and notorious pirates allied to the World Government. Collectively, they constituted one of the Three Great Powers that kept the world in balance." Yosaku explained what the Seven Warlords were.

"So they contain Seven of the strongest beings in the world?" He questioned curiously as Yosaku looked over at Luffy and Sanji who shrugged at him.

"Essentially, why?" Yosaku stated.

"I see." Ben leaned against the edge of the boat looking behind him, 'Seven Warlords. In order to become the strongest, I need to be stronger than them without using Alien X.' Ben chuckled to himself gaining Sanji and Luffy's curiosity.

"What's so funny, Ben?" Luffy questioned him.

"Wondering just how strong the Seven Warlords are."

"Wasn't that Mihawk guy one of them?" Sanji questioned as he relighted his cigarette as this caught Ben's attention. Ben then went back to gazing at the sea when he spoke up again, "What does the Seven Warlords have to do with Nami-swan?"

"From our current estimate from Conomi Island to the Grand Line it isn't that far from their territory. Plus we had a wanted poster of a criminal who's on been located on Conomi Island." Yosaku revealed as Ben turned towards him interested on who he was talking about.

"Who is it?" Sanji asked.

Yosaku pulled out a tanned sheet of paper as he passed it towards Ben who gazed at the paper. Luffy and Sanji leaned towards the Omnitrix wielder as they read the paper, "Arlong."

"Look it's a giant fish! Like you Ben!" Luffy exclaimed as Ben shot the straw hat a dangerous glare.

"What does this guy have to do with Nami?" Ben gazed at Yosaku who shrugged.

"No idea, but I believe we'll be finding out real soon." Yosaku stated as Ben, Luffy, and Sanji turned towards their left and continued sailing to Conomi Island.

In a boat, in the far distance Usopp, Johnny, and Zoro we're still following Nami, "You guys see the Going Merry?" Usopp questioned as he looked at Johnny then Zoro who was bandaged up and in a blue Hawaiian shirt.

"No, you think Yosaku made it back to Big Bro Ben and Big Bro Luffy?" Johnny asked as he gazed at the two crew members.

"Of course, I'm willing to bet Ben and Luffy are heading this way as we speak." Zoro spoke as Usopp nodded his head in agreement.

"I agree, Ben isn't the one to abandon his friends. I think once Yosaku told Ben of Nami's betrayal he made quick work of Don Krieg and immediately set sail after us." Usopp stated confidently as Johnny thought about it and it sounded like their Captain alright.
