After seing two of Arlong captains defeated, Nojiko and Genzo are starting to believe that this may be the end of their suffering. Meanwhile we see Usopp lying in a pool of blood next to Chuu. The Fishman thinks he has defeated the running Straw Hat, but it was just one of Usopp trick. The blood is in fact Ketshup he has used, in order to pretend he was dead. Once Chuu is out of sight, our coward friend starts to think about all the lies he could use in order to explain his defeat. But then all the memories of his friends battle and his promise to Kaya came back : he decides to fight once more. However Chuu is much stronger than him and he is barely able to dodge his attacks.
