Episode 37

"Luffy Stands Up! End of a Broken Promise!" is the 37th episode of the One Piece anime.

Short Summary
When a Marine officer under Arlong's pay confiscates all the money Nami stole over the years in order to one day buy the village from Arlong, the villagers decide that enough is enough and they should fight back, despite Nami's pleads that they shouldn't and that they'd all be killed. Upon seeing Nami's sorrow, the Straw Hat Pirates head for Arlong Park.

Long Summary
Nezumi, accompanied by Genzo, reached Nami's home with the intention to seize the treasure that she has accumulated over the years. Nami first tried to use the Arlong's name as a threat and then attacked the Marine before they started to search his property. The search continued, however, and Nami discovered that it was Arlong to send it to prevent that Cocoyasi Village was redeemed. A Marine found the point where the treasure was hidden and Nezumi shot Nojiko while the woman was trying to prevent Nami to attack him.

Nojiko was brought to the village to be cured by Nako, while Nami went to Arlong Park to force him to admit his guilt, but the fishman argued that what he had done was not unfair. Not being able to do anything else Nami backed to the village to prevent its citizens from attack, because it would only lead them to death. However the people did not listen, and went to Arlong Park.

Nami, alone and desperate, began to stab the tattoo of Arlong who was on her shoulder until she was stopped by Luffy. Nami asked him for help and the pirate, with his companions, went to Arlong Park.
