Despite Jinbe's orders to hide the body, Hody exposed to the crying people that a human killed Otohime. Neptune locks himself inside Hard-Shell tower and refuses to come out until he calms down. The Minister's keep him companied during his time and Neptune comments he would have killed the shooter even if he was unarmed and realized Otohime wouldn't want that. He comments on the cycle of hatred and revenge and knows when it starts and by killing someone would spread hatred and make the children's eyes cold from witnessing it and harbor hatred. He could relate to what Otohime was trying to do but is torn from his duties as a king to carry out her wishes and his duties as a husband for wanting to avenge his beloved wife. He states as a soldier he avenged his comrades lives and killed several humans and was unable to help Otohime due to what he did in the past. After a few days he's finally calmed down, and returned to the palace to consult his children. On the day of Queen Otohime's funeral, he hears from Shirahoshi that letters have been flying to her and that someone named Vander Decken IX is wanting her hand in marriage, enraging Neptune due to her only being six years old. Neptune wants him found and chooses not to have his children attend the funeral due to the posibility of him being there. Everyone in Fishman Island attended Queen Otohime's funeral, where Fukaboshi announced on a video screen that he and his siblings will carry out their mother's dream.

After Sanji kicks Luffy for sleeping through the whole story, Hachi goes on to explain Hody's hatred towards humans and how it's even greater than Arlong's.

Anime and Manga Differences

 * The following scenes are added in the anime:
 * Jinbe extinguishes a fire on a burning signature sheet.
 * The human pirate accused of killing Otohime was trying to escape before he was shot by Hody.
 * Neptune, while locked in the Hard-Shell Tower, releases several blows on the gate (to the point of injury) to calm his rage.
 * When Neptune leaves the tower after a few days, he is seen consoling his children.
 * Dialogues and actions in repentance of Jinbe for Nami, for past crimes of Arlong, are stretched and more elaborate.
 * After Luffy wakes up, he asks Jinbe why he was crying. Jinbe, with shame, refuses to admit he was really crying.
 * In the manga, only the Minister of the Left was listening to the laments of Neptune while he was locked in the tower. In the anime, the Minister of the Right and some soldiers were also listening to the laments.
 * Chopper did not ask Shirahoshi if she is friends with Sea Kings like he did in the manga. Also, Shirahoshi isn't shown holding Nami and Chopper in her hand like in the manga.
