Nami/History

A Map of the World: A Tragic Past and a Broken Dream
Nami was an orphan found by Bell-mère, a female Marine, on a hostile battlefield. The marine adopted her along with Nojiko, a child who was also with her. The three became as close as a real family.

As a child, Nami developed a love for drawing maps and navigation, and the dream to draw a complete map of the world. However, Bell-mère's tangerine trees provided only meager means of support and they were unable to afford anything other than the bare necessities. As a result, Nami could not afford the navigation books, leading her to often steal them from the village bookshop. One day, Bell-mère scolded Nami when she got caught stealing; however, she applauded Nami's first drawing of the island as the first step of her dream to map the world and put faith into Nami that she really could do it.

In one year, in which the price of tangerines fell due to a large supply, Bell-mère had to eat only tangerines and gave most of the food to Nami and Nojiko, but did not let on how bad the situation was to Nojiko and Nami. One day, Nami was given one of Nojiko's dresses by Bell-mère (who simply turned the sunflower on it into a lion) and Nami was offended; Nami wanted her own clothes not Nojiko's hand-me-downs. During the argument, Nami said she did not consider Nojiko a real sister, causing Bell-mère to slap her. Nami then ran off, saying that she wished she were adopted by rich people. Bell-mère was greatly touched, and she decided to spare some money and prepare Nami's favorite meal even though it would break her budget. She sent Nojiko to fetch Nami while she prepared the meal.



Just at this time, the infamous fishman pirate Arlong who took over Conomi Islands came upon Cocoyasi Village, their adopted hometown and imposed a fee on every single adult and child in the village in order to 'live'. Since Bell-mère could not pay for her entire family's monthly fee for living, she was used as an example by Arlong to demonstrate to the townspeople what will happen to them if they ever go against him or fail to pay the fee. Bell-mère was then brutally murdered by Arlong in front of Nami and Nojiko.



Nami was then kidnapped and forced to become a cartographer for Arlong after he noticed the quality of her maps at such a young age. However, Arlong struck a deal with Nami: if she brought him 100,000,000, he would free her village. At Bell-mère's death, she told Nami and Nojiko to be strong and that "If you can survive, then happy times... lots of them... will come your way". This encouraged Nami to work hard to buy Cocoyashi from Arlong, believing that once she freed the village, she could pursue her dream and find happiness. At the beginning of the series, Nami had spent eight years making maps for Arlong and stealing treasure from pirates in order to buy back her village.

Orange Town Arc
During her time working for Arlong, she managed to steal a map of the Grand Line from Buggy, then lay adrift at sea with an empty treasure chest, which she used to trick some pirates and took their boat and their treasure instead. She was first shown (ignoring the shots from episodes 1, 2, and 3 that only appeared in the anime) running from three of Buggy's henchmen, when, Luffy fell out of the sky.

Luffy emerged from the smoke unharmed, wondering what shot at him. Nami suddenly got an idea and called Luffy "boss", asking him to take care of the pirates. The pirates crowded around Luffy and one of them hit him on the head knocking off his straw hat. This made Luffy angry and he easily defeated all three. Nami, who was watching, was impressed by his abilities and introduced herself as a thief who specialized in robbing pirates'.

Nami at first tried to form a partnership with Luffy but when she found out he was a pirate, she switched to the idea to pretend to turn Luffy in to Buggy as her former boss. She tied up Luffy and gave him to Buggy who locked him in a cage. Later, Nami pretended to join Buggy's crew so she could steal his gold. This worked well until Buggy ordered her to kill Luffy to prove her loyalty to him. Nami's conscience got the best of her and she decided to save Luffy. Fortunately, Zoro showed up in time to save them both and fought with Buggy.

Zoro cut Buggy into pieces, marveling at how easily he was defeated. But when he turned around, he found that Buggy's hand had managed to detach itself, stabbing Zoro in his midsection. Buggy then revealed he ate the Bara Bara no Mi, a Devil Fruit giving him the power to detach his body parts, rendering him invulnerable to sharp objects such as swords. However, the three of them managed to escape by firing Buggy's cannon at Buggy and his crew.

Escaping into the empty town, the three met a dog, Chouchou, and the Mayor of Orange Town, Boodle, who explained the dog's situation of guarding his master's pet shop, despite knowing that his master was already dead. Their talk wass interrupted by the arrival of Buggy's first mate, Mohji, and his pet lion, Richie. Nami and Boodle escaped (Zoro was recovering from his wound in the Mayor's house) but Luffy was still stuck in the cage that Buggy imprisoned him in when Nami turned him in.

Richie attacked Luffy, breaking the cage and sending Luffy flying through a house. Noticing the pet store, he then turned his attention toward it. Chouchou defended it to the best of his ability, but was no match for the lion. When Luffy came back into the area, he saw the pet shop burned to the ground and the dog heartbroken over it. Luffy then confronted Moji and Richie and easily defeated both.

Nami, believing that Luffy destroyed the shop, attacked him saying that he is no different from the other pirates. However, she was stopped by Boodle. When Luffy gave the last box of dog food to Chouchou, she realized that Luffy actually fought for the dog’s sake.

Boodle, inspired by Luffy's courage, went to confront Buggy, but was almost choked to death. Luckily, Luffy, Zoro, and Nami arrived and saved him. Luffy then knocked him out to make sure he would not get in the way. Zoro fought with Cabaji, Buggy's second mate and swordsman, and despite his wounds, defeated him.

Nami showed no interest in the battle and sneaked off to steal Buggy's treasure. During the fight, Buggy revealed his acquaintance with Shanks and how he gained his powers. He then set after Nami when he spotted her taking his loot, but Luffy saved her. As Buggy separated his body parts again, preparing for another attack on Luffy, Nami stole some of them, tying the stolen body parts together.



Buggy was left with just his hands, feet and head, vulnerable for Luffy to send him flying. Nami gives Luffy the map of the Grand Line as she thanked him and agreed to partner up with him for the time being.

As the trio starts to relax however, the townspeople come back into the town, and seeing their mayor knocked out, demanded answers. Luffy replied that the three are pirates, and the townspeople chase them out of town, though the three managed to lose them thanks to Chouchou’s intervention.

Boodle woke up and set after them himself just as Luffy, Zoro, and Nami left the island on two small boats, thanking the three from the dock as they sailed off. To Nami's surprise however, Luffy had deliberately left one of her treasure bags behind to help the people of Orange Town rebuild their homes and she threatened Luffy and warned him to never do that again.

Duel with Captain Kuro
The Straw Hat Pirates arrived in Syrup Village, where they met Usopp. Usopp entertained notions of grandeur by commanding the Usopp Pirates (composed of Usopp and three loyal village boys). Once the children ran away in fear, the Straw Hats and Usopp shared a meal, although Usopp left early. Nami lectured Zoro and Luffy on not eating the fish bones, which caused the Usopp pirates to mistake the three for cannibals, to Nami's annoyance.

The boys, Carrot, Pepper, and Onion told them that Usopp's wealthy friend Kaya was bedridden, but was well-provided for by her two butlers, Merry and Kurahadol. Luffy believed Kaya would be able to give them a boat, so they moved forward to visit her. The group was sent flying into the backyard (by Luffy) only to intrude on an argument between Usopp and Kurahadol, who insulted Usopp's father, and forced the group away from the house. While Usopp and Luffy bonded, Nami, Zoro and the boys came across the moon-walking hypnotist Jango.

After Usopp ran past them hysterically screaming that Kurahadol was a pirate, they went in search of Luffy. Luffy confirmed that Kurahadol was actually Captain Kuro, who planned on killing Kaya and getting all her money. Usopp returned but told the boys that it was just a lie, and they left disappointed at Usopp lying to hurt people but not to entertain.

The Straw Hats gained a great deal of respect for Usopp because he tricked the boys to protect their well being, and planned to take on an entire pirate crew and agreed to help him (so long as Nami got the treasure). Usopp planned to have an oil slick to stop the pirates, making it easy for him to snipe them. However the four were on the wrong side of the island. Nami fell into the oil slick but managed to switch spots with Zoro and ran off to fight, leaving Zoro behind. Luffy became lost on his dash, causing Usopp and Nami to initially fight the pirates alone.

Just before the two were killed, Zoro and Luffy arrived and fought Kuro's crew. Jango hypnotized the crew to increase their strength but accidentally hypnotized Luffy and forcing Jango to hypnotize Luffy to sleep again but not before Luffy ripped of the ship's figurehead, which he then dropped and knocked out the crew. Meanwhile Jango summoned the ship's guards, the Nyaban brothers, Buchi and Sham who fought against Zoro. Disarmed of all but one sword, Zoro fought an uphill battle against the team-work of Buichi and Sham which was difficult without all three swords and Zoro prevented Usopp from helping him by taking a hit from his Lead Star to keep him from getting dragged into the fight. Kuro then appeared, disgusted by how Black Cat pirates were getting beaten by children, and gave the Nyaban Brothers five minutes to finish off Zoro before he everyone.

Nami was able to kick Zoro's swords back to him, allowing him to defeat the Nyaban brothers effortlessly, but Buchi survived and was hypnotized by Jango to give him more strength. Nami went to wake Luffy up, but Jango tried to stop her with his chakram, but at the last second Nami stepped on Luffy's face, waking him up in time to stop the chakram with his rubber body.

The battles between Luffy and Kuro, Zoro and Buchi and a later combination of Zoro and Usopp against Jango came to an end while Nami remained off screen robbing the Black Cat Pirates of all their treasure.

Usopp decided that news of a real pirate attack might be too upsetting for the villagers and would affect their peace of mind since pirates did not normally come to an out of the way village. So he ordered everyone to keep it a secret, which Kaya and his crew agreed with. Kaya, was grateful to the Straw Hat Pirates, and gave them her ship, the Going Merry. Usopp was also grateful to them as well, and then had the confidence to disband his pirate crew and strike out on his own to be a real pirate. Usopp said goodbye to the Straw Hat crew, who became confused and told him to stop and get on their boat with them and that he was already part of their crew.

The Man in the Chest
The episode arc started when the group landed on a mysterious island inhabited by strange creatures. After passing the "test" of the forest, the Straw Hat Pirates (now made up of Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and Usopp) met Gaimon, a pirate stuck inside a treasure chest and had been marooned by his crew. The four became friends and Luffy agreed to help Gaimon get down the treasure he had been guarding on top of the rock. When Luffy refused to throw down the treasure chests, Gaimon realized that the chests on the rock were the same as the island’s other empty treasure chests. Seeing Gaimon’s disappointment, Luffy offered to take him off the island. Gaimon decided to remain on the island and protect the island’s rare animals he had befriended. With that, The Straw Hats bade Gaimon goodbye and continued on to their journey.

Betrayal at the Baratie
The crew met Johnny and Yosaku, Zoro's former bounty hunter companions, and they set sail for the Baratie restaurant in search of a cook. Luffy began his job as a waiter to pay for the damage he had done to the Baratie and tried to convince Sanji, one of the cooks, to join his crew. Nami, Zoro and Usopp paid him a visit while he worked off his debt. Seeing Nami for the first time, Sanji declared his love for her, to which he gave her fancy food and she manipulated him into giving it to her for free. Back on the Going Merry, Johnny and Yosaku dropped a pile of wanted posters; one of which Nami picked up and looked at intently, the poster of Arlong. While Johnny and Yosaku guarded the boat, she asked them to turn away while she changed her top, and then pushed them off Merry. She then took off alone with the Going Merry declaring that she was a thief who stole from pirates.

The Witch of Cocoyasi: Nami's True Intentions
Nami arrived at Arlong Park on Conomi Islands in the Merry. A boy confronted her, trying to fight Arlong for the death of his father. Nami slapped him however and gives some Beli to make him to go away. Zoro was brought to Arlong Park where he discovered Nami's allegiance to Arlong. After some banter, Arlong proudly stated that Nami was the type of person who would betray even her own family for the sake of riches, trying to test her allegiance. This visibly disturbed Nami. Zoro threw himself into the water to test Nami. Nami saved Zoro but beat him to reassure Arlong. While in prison, Nami cut Zoro's bonds to help him escape.

Arlong headed to Cocoyasi Village, where he confronted Genzo, the village sheriff, for simply owning a weapon. Nojiko, Nami's sister, told Usopp about the monthly fee the villagers had to pay Arlong in order to survive. Just as Arlong was about to kill Genzo, Usopp saved him, and ran as some of the fishmen came after him while the others dragged Arlong off before he went berserk. Nami arrived sometime later, but the villagers treated her coldly and left save for Nojiko and Genzo. Nami revealed to Nojiko that she enjoyed being part of the Straw Hat crew, even for a short time. The three later visited the grave site of Nami's adoptive mother, Bell-mère, where Nami revealed that she was almost finished paying Arlong's fee to buy back Cocoyasi.

The fishmen captured Usopp and threatened to kill him. Usopp asked Nami for help, making the fishmen suspicious. He then used a Smoke Star to try to escape Nami intercepted him and announced that she would kill Usopp herself. Nami stabbed her hand and kicked Usopp into the ocean, and then told Arlong and the fishmen that she had killed him and was indeed one of them while from afar, Johnny looked on in horror. Luffy, Sanji, and Yosaku finally arrived and Johnny found them and told the group what he thought had happened to Usopp. Nami soon met them and reminded Luffy that she just partnered up with him for the treasure. She then told the group to take their ship back and get off the island but Luffy refused, causing Nami to angrily walk away. Usopp came across Luffy and the others and told them what really happened. Nojiko found the four and agreed to tell them the true reason behind Nami's motives. Though Luffy and Zoro did not heard it, Sanji and Usopp (as well as an eavesdropping Johnny and Yosaku) listened to the story of Nami's past.

A group of Marines, led by a captain named Nezumi landed on the island and was revealed to have been bribed by Arlong for a long time to ignore his actions on Conomi Islands. Nezumi had Genzo take him to Nami's home, where he accused Nami of hiding stolen money. Nami tried to stop them, but the Marines found the treasure Nami had been collecting since being kidnapped by Arlong, 93,000,000 and only 7,000,000 short of her deal to buy Cocoyasi back. Genzo revealed to the Marines that the money was for the repurchase of the town, and admits to a startled Nami that he and the town always knew what she was doing after she "joined" Arlong. The Marines took the money by force and left.



Nami ran back to Arlong and accused him of sending the Marines to look for her money. Arlong denied it and threatened Nami, claiming he never broke their deal and told her that if she wanted her village back, she would just need to start again from scratch. Back in the village, Genzo rallied the villagers to attack Arlong for going back on the deal he and Nami brokered. Afraid of more people from the village dying, Nami tried to stop them from attacking Arlong but failed to stop them. Feeling hopeless, Nami collapsed to the ground and repeatedly stabbed herself in the arm where Arlong's tattoo was until Luffy stopped her. Nami tearfully asked for Luffy's help. He gave her his straw hat and agreed to help her. With that, Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, and Sanji went to Arlong Park.

Along with Sanji, Zoro and Usopp, Luffy battled Arlong and his elites and defeated them all. In the process, Luffy found Nami's map room in Arlong Park and recognized that it was the room that Nami did not want to be in and threw out the maps. After defeating Arlong, Luffy rose from the collapsed building and shouted at the top of his voice that Nami was his friend. Nami tearfully nodded. Marines led by Nezumi tried to interfere, but were also defeated by Luffy. I don't care about how powerful your Fishman species is. I don't care how important the map is. I don't care all about that stuff. But I finally know how to help her. I can't allow this room to exist. This is the room she never wanted to stay in. I will destroy all of it! Nami's village was freed, and she rejoined the crew as a permanent member. On her way out of the village, Nami wished to say goodbye to no one. She left the entire treasure taken from Nezumi in Nojiko's house for the village, and ran onto the Going Merry after stealing all of the villagers' wallets. This caused certain opinions for Nami to spring up, like Sanji cheering for her, Zoro saying that Nami might betray them again and Usopp saying that she had not changed, and Luffy laughing.

Loguetown Arc
The crew arrived at the last large town before the entrance to the Grand Line, Loguetown, the place where Gold Roger was both born and executed, where they stocked up on supplies and went to sight see until Buggy and the Marines discovered them. Miraculously saved from death by an unnatural green gust and a lightning bolt to Buggy, the Straw Hats rushed out of Loguetown. Nami and Usopp arrived at the ship and found that Mohji, Buggy's crewmate was planning to burn their ship. They easily defeated him but some Marines arrived shortly after. Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji arrived and got aboard.

Traversing Reverse Mountain and Meeting Laboon
The Straws Hats arrived at Reverse Mountain through the storm after fleeing Loguetown. They were nearly blown off course and into the Calm Belt but eventually reached the entrance of Reverse Mountain and managed to climb it's uphill rapids because of Nami's navigation, despite some tricky close calls. As they came down, they heard a noise and noticed that something was blocking their path. They identified the blockage as a huge whale that was threatening to crush the Going Merry. Luffy managed to keep the ship from crashing into it, but seeing the bow broken off enraged Luffy and he attacked the whale. The whale swallowed the Going Merry and her crew, except for Luffy who managed to escape onto the whale's back.

Inside, the remaining Straw Hats suddenly found themselves in what looked like an outside setting with a house in the middle of the water where they met an old man named Crocus, who revealed that the strange setting was in fact the whale's stomach. They later reunited with Luffy and two people inside known only as Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday, who apparently were plotting to kill the whale. Crocus reveals that the whale's name was Laboon and that he was trying to ram into the mountain. Crocus begins to explain to the Straw Hats why the whale was covered with scars and continually rammed the mountain.

Crocus explained to the Straw Hats about how a regular compass would not work past Reverse Mountain and that they needed a Log Pose if they were to travel the Grand Line. Crocus explained how the Log Pose worked and mentioned the final destination of the Grand Line, Raftel, where One Piece could be as the only person to reach there was Gold Roger. Luffy revealed a Log Pose he found after they dumped Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday but it was broken so Crocus loaned them his. The Mr. 9 pair spies on the group from afar until they were knocked into the ocean by the Unluckies for failing their mission to kill Laboon. They reacquainted themselves with the Straw Hats again and begged them to take the two to their hometown, Whiskey Peak, to which Luffy agreed. With that they bade Crocus and Laboon farewell and set off.

Whiskey Peak Arc


When the crew arrived at Whiskey Peak, she managed to out drink at least 14 other people in the party. After pretending to pass out, she woke up and, while Zoro fought the bounty hunters, tried to find the treasure the bounty hunters had stolen from other pirates but was unsuccessful Later, once Vivi's identity as princess of Alabasta was revealed, Igaram begged Zoro to protect the princess and take her to Alabasta in return for a great prize. Nami offered to do it for 1 billion and Igaram was forced to agree. Igaram then explained Baroque Works to Nami while Zoro went to protect the princess.

When Luffy started a fight with Zoro due to a misunderstanding, she broke up the fight. Vivi then further explained Baroque Works to Nami, Luffy and Zoro and unwittingly revealed that Mr. 0 was, in fact, the Shichibukai Crocodile. This was witnessed by Mr. 13 and Miss Friday which made the Straw Hats targets for Baroque Works since noone was allowed to know the true identity of the head of Baroque Works.

Igaram dressed up like Vivi and left the island intending to act as a decoy but his ploy failed and his ship was destroyed by Ms. All Sunday (whose real name was later revealed to be Nico Robin). She confronted the Straw Hats on their ship and gave them an Eternal Pose to the Island of Nothing, an island near Alabasta where no Baroque Works Agents would find them. Luffy then destroyed it, stating that she wasn't deciding the course they were taking. Ms. All Sunday stated that she has no problem with a great spirit like Luffy's and quickly left the Going Merry on her turtle, shortly after the Straw Hats left Whiskey Peak.

Little Garden Arc


With a newly acquired Princess Vivi on board, the Straw Hats soon find themselves on the prehistoric island Little Garden. While Usopp and Nami feel uncomfortable leaving the ship, Vivi and Luffy decide to go explore the island. Meanwhile, Nami and Usopp are terrified when Brogy, another giant, shows up and decapitates a Tyrannosaurus Rex. After a failed attempt at playing dead, he decides to bring them home with him, much to their alarm. (They believe the food he offers them is only to fatten themselves up.)

Back at Dorry's campsite, Dorry explains that Brogy and he are forever destined to continue their 100 year long war, which was started over a reason Dorry had long forgotten (it is later revealed that a quarrel about their hunting competition which resulted in their exile from Elbaf). Nami states that such a battle is pointless while Usopp disagrees and speaks of honor and then wishes to visit Elbaf and be a man like them. When Dorry and Brogy are just about to continue their bout, Dorry suffers from an internal explosion from his intake of the Straw Hats' wine, and Nami takes this opportunity to leave.

Nami and Zoro fall for Mr. 3's wax sculptures of their different crew mates and are captured, while the Mr. 5 team personally captures Vivi. Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek imprison Nami, Vivi, and Zoro in a trap which slowly turns them into wax sculptures. A battle breaks out where Luffy, Usopp, and Carue have to battle both the Mr. 3 and Mr. 5 teams to save their friends. When Usopp's plan succeeded in setting Nami free from her wax prison, her shirt is burned off, leaving her in just her bra and skirt (much to Sanji's enjoyment when he arrived shortly afterwards) who joined Vivi in knocking out Miss Valentine. It was later revealed by Dr. Kureha, that while Nami's navel was exposed, a prehistoric insect bit her, resulting in Nami catching a deadly disease.

Drum Island Arc
While looking for a doctor, the crew meets the pirate Wapol, who attacks them, but only makes Luffy send him flying.

They arrive at last to Drum Island, only to find out they are not welcome. The Straw Hat crew manages to gain the trust of the people that attacked them, and are taken to the village, except for Zoro and Carue, who guard the ship. Luffy and Sanji must take Nami to the island's sole doctor who lives on a mountain-top. An avalanche occurred and injures Sanji, leaving Luffy with the responsibility of carrying both Nami and Sanji to the doctor, and so begins his ascent. The Lapahn help Luffy escape from Wapol, giving him enough time to climb to the castle where doctor Kureha lives.



The recovering Nami meets a strange creature. After learning about him, Nami asks Chopper to join the crew, but he is not interested. Kureha tells Nami some of what was Chopper's background. After realizing the abilities that Chopper has, Luffy is eager to make him join the crew. Doctorine continues to tell how Chopper lived his life and how the quack doctor Hiluluk took care of him. More of Chopper's past is revealed, including the fate of doctor Hiluluk and Wapol's cruelties as the king. Wapol is determined to bring down Hiluluk's flag, and to do that, he engages Sanji, Luffy and Chopper in a fight. After finally been convinced to join the team, Chopper announces his intentions to Dr. Kureha, who does not take it too well; but after escaping from the castle, she has decided to give the whole Straw Hat crew a farewell gift.

Alabasta Arc
The crew saw a Sea Cat as they neared Alabasta. Starving for food, they try to capture it, but Vivi stops them since it was considered a sacred animal. As they pass through some steam from an underwater volcano, Luffy and Usopp caught an okama while fishing. As they waited for his crew to catch up, he entertains them with his Devil Fruit ability to copy other people's appearances (Mane Mane no Mi), one of which was Vivi's father. When the man's crew caught up, he was revealed to be Mr. 2 Bon Kurei of Baroque Works. Knowing his abilities, they made an 'X' mark on their right arms and covered them with bandages to know when he was posing as one of them.

The crew landed in Nanohana where they encounter Smoker and Tashigi. A powerful pirate named Portgas D. Ace appears, and is revealed to be Luffy's older brother. Ace fights Smoker while the Straw Hats run for their ship. Ace catches up to them and gave Luffy a Vivre Card before departing. They docked their ship near the once 'green city' of Erumalu where they see the extent of the country's suffering as Vivi explained how Baroque Works was using Dance Powder to cause it. After tackling some of the dangers in the desert, they reach Yuba where they meet Toto, a friend of the royal family. They find out that the Rebel Army has moved out of Yuba and headed to Katorea, and the rebel leader Kohza, Toto's son and Vivi's childhood friend, is determined to attack.

The crew travels to the city of Rainbase to take down Crocodile and Baroque Works, but run afoul of Smoker and Tashigi. Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, and Smoker are trapped by Crocodile. Chopper distracts Crocodile while Sanji frees the rest of the crew. After escaping from Rain Dinners, Usopp and the crew together with Vivi crossed the desert to Alubarna, where the final battle will take place. Crocodile, however, manages to catch Luffy, beginning the first round of their battle. The crew, excluding Luffy, proceeded to the Alubarna. As they reach the destination, they split up to distract the Baroque Works agents to engage their battle separately. Nami is chased down by Mr. 1 and Miss Doublefinger, as Mr. 1 states to always the start with the weaklings first. Nami is cornered and tries to face them, but flusters and tries to flee again. Mr. 1 moves in for the kill but she is saved by Zoro who fights him off, leaving Nami alone with Miss Doublefinger..



Nami flees to try and hide while trying to figure out her new weapon, the Clima-Tact. We are shown a flashback of her asking Usopp to build her something so she can help fight. That she wants to protect Vivi and not be weak. Nami is then suddenly impaled through the back of her shoulder by a spike jutting through the wall. Miss Doublefinger breaks apart the wall behind her, with her Devil Fruit abilities. She calls Nami a useless girl, and then explains she can grow spikes anywhere on her body. Nami takes out her weapon Usopp made and attempts to call upon a storm, but instead it does a party trick. Miss Doublefinger remains puzzled, wondering what she is doing. Nami attempts again, but has a bouquet of flowers pop out, leaving Miss Doublefinger even more confused and embarrassed for her.

Miss Doublefinger begins to attack, as Nami barely is able to dodge her attacks and rolls away, feeling frightened. She tells Nami that running away from her isn't helping, and nobody is coming to save her. That it would be easier for her to be calm and accept her death. Nami tries to use her Clima-Tact, but it spits out a boxing glove on a spring that Miss Doublefinger slaps aside. She then slices up Nami's cheek, and begins to chase her down rolling into a large ball of spikes. Nami gets knocked through a glass window, but with quick thinking she wraps her robe over her enemy and hurls her away, as Miss Doublefinger is mildly impressed by her desperate tactics.

Nami looks over the instruction manual and finds the fighting combinations are written on the back, to her anger. Nami climbs out of hiding, confronting her enemy now confident she is able to fight. She tears her dress allowing herself to move better, preparing to fight. She begins blowing bubbles, of warm, cool, and static, doing nothing but mildly amuse her enemy. Growing bored, Miss Doublefinger finishes her cigarette and charges her, growing spikes on her heels. She catches up with Nami and shoves a spike through her back leg. She tells Nami she doesn't feel like playing with her anymore, turned her bottom heel into spikes that she tries to impale her. Nami then is able to use her Clima Tact and blow her away, a certain distance.

She reads over her manual, beginning to understand further how to use her weapon and the combinations of using hot and cool pressure. Miss Doublefinger becomes angered at her not paying attention to their battle and charges her, shoving her spike fingers through her chest and face. What would be a killing blow, turned out to be merely a mirage Nami had tricked her with. Miss Doublefinger attacks again, with her arms and breasts turning into great spikes to pin her arms to the wall. She sardonically compliments Nami on her weapon, but states it doesn't have much attack power behind it. Her lips morph into a spike that jut from her face that Nami is able to avoid being stabbed with.



She continues to tease Nami further, keeping a part of her staff away. She tells her that this toy is weak, and its electricity is more harmless than the static on a coat. Nami steals it back and tries to use all three pieces together, but is only further frustrated at it making little water fountains. Miss Doublefinger transforms her hair into a great ball of sharp urchin spikes, and charges her. Nami is able to roll out of her path and is further frightened at the damage of her breaking a clean hole through a building. Miss Doublefinger tells Nami she was only showing off in response to her 'show', as she uses her Devil Fruit powers to inject her arms and make them bigger and stronger.

Before Nami is able to finish mixing her bubbles together, Miss Doublefinger attacks with more power, shattering a stone pillar and further causing injury to her legs. She successfully creates a small cloud, but Miss Doublefinger ignores it and continues her assault. Nami throws more hot and cool bubbles, deliberately missing her opponent to feed the cloud. Nami is slammed back, but before Miss Doublefinger can land a killing blow her thundercloud strikes her with lightning.Still standing and enraged, she tries to skewer Nami but is tricked once again by a mirage of her.



Nami prepares to use her next move but before she is ready, Miss Doublefinger charges her as Nami is forced to push her back with her foot causing it to be impaled. Nami overcomes her pain thinking of how much Vivi has suffered, that her wound cannot compare to. She unleashes her special move, as at first two small toy pigeons pop out seemingly another harmless move. But then, they begin to wrap around her and spin, propelling Miss Doublefinger at a high velocity making her crash through the walls of a building. Upon approaching her enemies now still body, Nami wins her first major victory in the series to this point.

Later, the Straw Hats hurried to locate the bomb before it goes off. Vivi figured out where the bomb was, and had Usopp call the Straw Hats together with a flare. She found it inside of the clock tower, but Mr. 7 and Miss Father's Day of Baroque Works were there. Vivi defeats them but realizes the bomb cannot be stopped so easily; Crocodile had made it a time bomb as a fail safe. Right before it blows up, however, Pell shows up and uses his Devil Fruit power to take it into the atmosphere, where he sacrifices himself to save Alubarna. The Rebel and Royal armies continued to fight even after the bomb went off. It wasn't until it rained and Crocodile was revealed to be one behind the drought that they stopped. Tashigi and Smoker both were rewarded for taking on Crocodile, but neither one of them believed it was right since the Straw Hat pirates did all the work. Luffy rescued Nico Robin and Cobra from the collapsing tomb where he fought and defeated Crocodile. He was then brought to the palace to rest. When he awakened, a banquet is thrown for the pirates. They were then invited to enjoy the hotspring steam-room inside the palace.

Later that night, Mr. 2 Bon Kurei contacted them, telling them he prevented their ship from being taken by the Marines. During the journey back to their ship, Nami admitted to the others that she willingly gave up on the 1 billion that she previously demanded from Igaram to deliver Vivi to Alabasta for Vivi's sake. The next day, the day of her speech, Vivi was to make a decision on whether or not she will stay on the crew. Meanwhile, Bon Kurei and his crew helped the Straw Hats escape from Hina so they could get to Vivi, who declined joining them for the sake of her country. Regardless, they all showed their 'X' mark to signify that they will still consider her as one of them. After escaping from the Marines, Nico Robin (Ms. All Sunday) appears from inside of the Straw Hat's ship. She manages to persuade the crew to let her join since she had nowhere else to go. She bribes Nami with some of Crocodile's gems to get on her good side.

Rumble in Jaya
Nami's Log Pose began to point to the sky, after that, a big ship fell from sky where the crew found a map in of an island named "Skypiea" on a two hundred year-old ship. They competed with Masira's salvage crew while they searched for more clues on how to get there. The Straw Hats decided to go to Jaya island to look for information on Skypiea. Jaya's main town was full of famous pirates that were constantly brawling with each other. Luffy and Zoro had a run-in with a pirate known as "Bellamy the Hyena", who ridiculed their dreams and beat them up (or rather, Luffy allowed him to). Afterwards, Luffy, Zoro and Nami met the man who was later revealed to be Blackbeard, who took the opposite position to Bellamy in terms of dreams.

They left Mock Town, and got into a fight with Masira's brother, Shoujou. After escaping from him, the Straw Hats met with Montblanc Cricket on another part of Jaya. Cricket was a descendant of Montblanc Noland, an infamous "liar" who told of a gold city on Jaya, and Cricket was an outcast looking for artifacts of the gold city and may have known how to get to Skypiea. Cricket explained how the Straw Hats can ride a dangerous vertical current called the Knock Up Stream to get to Skypiea. However, they first had to catch a South Bird to point them toward the point where the stream will erupt from the ocean. While the Straw Hats were looking for a South Bird, Bellamy and his crew attacked Cricket's house, and stole the gold artifacts he had collected over the years from his salvage work. When the Straw Hats returned and saw what happened, Luffy decided to take a side trip back to Mock Town, where he effortlessly defeated Bellamy and took back the gold. The Going Merry was refitted by Masira and Shoujou to be more flight capable, and the Straw Hats caught a ride on the Knock Up Stream for Skypiea just before Blackbeard, who wanted to capture Luffy, caught up with them.

Adventure in a Sky Island


After they arrived in the White Sea, the Straw Hats came across the Gate of Heaven. They were recommended by an old woman named Amazon to pay a 1,000,000,000 extol fee per person, but even though they had not paid, she let them pass. As they were carried by a sky shrimp to the White-White Sea, they landed at a place that was surrounded by clouds. They then met and befriended Conis, a Skypiean. As their conversation continued about the waver they had found, the White Berets, Skypiea's law enforcement interrupted them and labeled them as criminals for illegal entry.

As Zoro, Nami, Chopper, and Robin climbed aboard the ship, a giant shrimp suddenly carried them off to the Sacrificial Altar in Upper Yard. Nami, Zoro and Robin explored the land and discovered it to be a part of Jaya. As they went back to the ship, they saw Gan Fall being treated by Chopper, who was injured in his battle against the priest, Shura. They spent a night on Upper Yard to prepare for their trek to "the skull's right eye" where the City of Gold was located. The next morning, Nami, Usopp, and Sanji remained on the ship with Gan Fall, while the other Straw Hats went to the City of Gold. Gan Fall explained to the three how an impact dial works. Enel, a powerful Devil Fruit user who claimed to be God, suddenly appeared and had a short conversation with Gan Fall.

God's Game


After the conversation, Enel defeated Sanji and Usopp. He vanished leaving Satori's brothers, Hotori and Kotori. Nami defeated Hotori while Kotori was defeated by Gan Fall. Pagaya and Conis arrived with a Shandian child named Aisa. Aisa tried to escape by jumping into the sea, and she was rescued by Nami shortly thereafter. As Nami and Aisa talked to each other, they were chased by the giant snake, Nola and ran to the middle forest. As they continued to proceed, they were swallowed by the snake together with Gan Fall and his bird Pierre. Inside, they met up with Luffy, who had thought he was in a cave the whole time. Nami then smacked Luffy when she and the others realize that his hitting Nola's insides was the reason Nola was acting so violent. As the snake fell, Nami and Gan Fall managed to escape. Nami used her waver and landed safely. The six left from Enel's Survival Game were Nami, Zoro, Robin, Gan Fall, Wiper, and Enel himself.



After everyone but Nami and Enel were wiped out due to fighting against Enel, Nami proclaimed that she would join Enel on his journey to the Fairy Vearth. Enel led Nami to his flying ark Maxim. After they they got on, Nami asked about the Mantra ability, and Enel said that only he could use it to detect a specific person due to his Goro Goro no Mi abilities. A few minutes later, Luffy arrived to fight Enel. He put up a good fight, taking Enel by surprise with his immunity to lightning. However, he was defeated and kicked off the ship with a golden ball welded onto his arm. Shortly after, Nami rejected Enel's leadership and protection thus provoking him to attack her. Nami used her Clima-Tact to redirect Enel's lightning, but was powerless against his stronger attacks. Right then, Usopp arrived to save her, and then Sanji arrived to save them both. Nami and Usopp escaped with the waver, and later came back for Sanji.

Nami then took Luffy on her waver to go up Giant Jack. They sent a message to the rest of the crew to cut down Giant Jack. Using the angle of the falling beanstalk, Luffy and Nami attempted to reach the Maxim. Enel attempted to sink Upper Yard to stop them, but Luffy managed to get up to Enel and eventually finished him off. Later they celebrated the ending of the four hundred year war. The crew was awakened by Luffy to steal the gold. A group of Skypieans came to give them the giant gold post from the golden bell as a reward, but the crew mistook it as a giant cannon. They ran to their ship and managed to return to the Blue Sea with the help of Pagaya and Conis.

Long Ring Long Land Arc


Nami participated in the first Davy back fight event, the Donut Race, along with Usopp and Nico Robin against Porche, Capote, and Monda. During the race she demonstrated her astute navigation skills by easily guiding the raft through a coral reef (in spite of Foxy's interference) by using the eddies to carry their raft through. She also easily saw through all of Foxy's attempts to stall them such as a fake detour sign, a fake emergency victim and a fake finish line. Near the finish line her team was on the verge of victory, only to be slowed down by Foxy's Noro Noro no Mi power long enough to give him the victory. As a result Chopper was taken by the Foxy Pirates, in part to weaken the Straw Hat Pirate's Groggy Ring team (since team members cannot be replaced once teams are set) and also because of his cuteness.

In the next event, Groggy Ring, she helped Sanji and Zoro win by stealing the flagrantly biased referee's red card to prevent Sanji's disqualification and then tricking him into blowing the finishing whistle once Sanji and Zoro scored to seal their victory. As a result, Chopper was reclaimed.

After the Davy Back Fight, the Straw Hats are confronted by Aokiji, one of the three Admirals. Aokiji casually hit on her, asking if she was available which sparks the jealousy of Sanji. Aokiji revealed to the crew a little of Nico Robin's dark past, emphasizing that every organization she joined had been been wiped out, leaving her as the only survivor. Nami, with the rest of the crew tried their best to protect Robin but she was effortlessly knocked aside by the Admiral. She helped thaw out Robin after they escaped.

A Breaking Ship, a Breaking Crew
After the Going Merry narrowly escaped being hit by a "sea train" the crew met an old woman, Kokoro, and her granddaughter, Chimney. Kokoro gave Luffy a poorly drawn map of Water 7. Luffy, Nami, and Usopp bought boats driven by sea monsters called Yagara Bulls. Luffy, Nami, and Usopp got strange greetings from the residents as they experienced the roller coaster-like channels of Water 7. They found out that some pirates had been beaten at the hands of some powerful craftsmen, the Galley-La Company. Luffy had their gold exchanged for cash.

They later met a man who resembles Usopp, Galley-La's carpenter employment foreman, Kaku. After Kaku went to examine their ship, they met Iceburg, the mayor of Water 7 and president of the Galley-La Company and his secretary Kalifa. While they talked, two of the suitcases of money were stolen by the Franky Family, a group of bounty hunters and ship dismantlers. They then met Paulie, one of the foremen who got their suitcase back while running from debt collectors. Kalifa showed Luffy, Nami, and Usopp around Dock No.1 and told them how Iceburg founded the Galley-La Company. Kaku returned from the Going Merry and told them that their keel was irreparably damaged. Luffy refused to believe that Galley-La could not repair the Going Merry and argued with them. The two soon realize that Ussop was missing and the two briefcases that were returned to them were empty.

Nami decided to head to Franky House and found Usopp lying on the ground after being mugged by the Franky Family. As she headed back to the ship for help, Usopp went to the Franky House himself. Once they were back on the ship, Luffy had to finally tell Usopp that the Going Merry could no longer be repaired and that they chose to get a new ship without him. Usopp believed that Luffy had abandoned the dignity of their ship and said that he was leaving the crew. That night, he challenged Luffy to a duel. Usopp fought Luffy in order to decide who would keep the Going Merry; he fought hard, even using an Impact Dial for the first time. However, due to his opponent being Luffy, he lost and the Straw Hats got a hotel room, leaving Usopp on the Merry.

Nami found the crew on the roof with urgent news; Iceburg had been shot. As the Galley-La Company frantically searched for answers, Nami and Luffy decided to check on his condition - only to be met by closed gates. Franky appeared then to exact his revenge on the Straw Hats for destroying the Franky House and defeating the Franky Family. The Galley-La Company ran outside and stopped Franky and Luffy and told them that they suspected the Straw Hats of the crime because Robin was one of the people who shot Iceburg. They then fought Luffy while some bystanders held Nami. Their fight was then interrupted by Franky when he used his Coup de Vent, allowing them to escape. Chopper reunited with the others without Sanji and they discussed what happened. Luffy decided that, in order to know the full truth, they had to catch Robin.

The Straw Hats (still missing Sanji) rushed to the Galley-La building where Robin and CP9 began a raid. The Straw Hats and Paulie broke into the room where they found Iceburg, Robin and CP9. Luffy and the others begged that Robin to come back to the crew. She refused and told them that she could not accomplish her "wish" if she were to stay with them. Robin turned to leave while CP9 fought the Straw Hats. Robin successfully escaped and Rob Lucci showed those remaining his Neko Neko no Mi, Model: Leopard ability. He quickly defeated the crew, throwing Luffy and Zoro off the island, and CP9 tied up Paulie and Iceburg, leaving them alone as the building slowly burned down around them. Luckily, Nami was able to untie them and they escaped from the building

Iceburg made it clear to Nami that Robin wanted to recover the blueprints for CP9 and turn herself in so they wouldn't initiate a Buster Call against the Straw Hats. Nami rushed to tell Chopper so they could go looking for the rest of the crew. Paulie helped clear the name of the Straw Hats but did not tell the mob of Galley-La workers about Lucci, Kaku and Kalifa. He got the mob to follow Chopper so they could search for the rest of the crew.



Nami went her own way so she can rush to the Sea Train. As Nami neared the station, Sanji, ahead of her, approached the train just before it left. Nami and the conductors were rescued by Paulie when the Aqua Laguna flooded the main station. A man handed Nami a letter he found from Sanji. It informed her that Usopp, Franky, and Sanji were on board the train that had just departed. Nami spoke with Kokoro and spotted Luffy, stuck between two buildings in the back streets where the Aqua Laguna was going to hit first. Nami finally reached Luffy and told him that he needed to hurry before Robin reached Enies Lobby. Luffy pushed apart the buildings he was stuck between and Paulie grabbed them all so they could escape the Aqua Laguna's massive wave.

Seeing how determined Luffy was to save Robin, Kokoro and Iceburg loaned the Straw Hat crew the use of another sea train, Rocket Man. The Franky Family showed up, pleading with Luffy to let them join them because they wanted to rescue Franky. Luffy accepted, and the Rocket Man finally made it out to sea, with the Franky Family close behind on Sodom and Gomorrah. It was revealed then that the remaining foremen of the Galley-La company stowed away to take revenge for Iceburg. With a common goal, the Straw Hats, Franky Family, and Galley-La Company formed an alliance.

With a small effort from Luffy and Zoro, they passed through Aqua Laguna unscathed and the passengers rejoiced. Sanji contacted the rest of the crew and filled them in on his current situation. Back in the Rocket Man, Luffy, Zoro, Nami, and Chopper changed their outfits and Nami showed off the weapon Usopp upgraded for her while he was still with them. Those on the Rocket Man encountered some discarded cars from the Puffing Tom and Zoro sliced them in hal so they could pass. Zoro clashed with "Ship Cutter" T-Bone. The fight was short and Zoro joined the crew again in the Rocket Man.

Yokuzuna the frog jumped onto the front of the train, knocking them from the rails. After Kokoro spoke with him, he joined the group. Luffy and the others finally caught up to Sanji, Usopp, and the rest of the Franky Family as they neared Enies Lobby. Paulie sat down with the group and talked about their plan. Predictably, Luffy did not bother to follow the plan, and slung himself beyond the gates before the train stopped.

Rescuing a Crewmate from Enies Lobby


When they landed on Enies Lobby, Nami tried her new weapon, the Perfect Clima-Tact, on a group of marines, making a very large thunder cloud that also injured her allies. Together with the Straw Hats, they rode Sodom but got knocked off by a mortar shell and later transferred to Gommorah. When they reached the courthouse, they found that they were been blocked by a group of marines and judge Baskerville. The Franky Family handled Baskerville and together they proceeded up the courthouse. As they waited for the Franky Family to activate the bridge, they lined up on the roof trying to convince Robin to accept their help. Robin finally agreed and said that she wanted to live when Luffy had Sogeking burn the World Government When they saw that the bridge was only partially activated Kokoro volunteered her help using the Rocketman. The Rocketman used the bridge as a ramp and Nami, together with her crewmates, was grabbed by Luffy and pulled onto the Rocketman.

As they landed, Fukuro showed up, declaring that a key was needed to uncuff Robin and each agent held a different key. The crew decided to fight individually and search for the key. Nami confronted Kumadori and had a short conversation. She stole his key without him noticing, but could not escape from him. She was saved by Chopper and, after running, they saw a fallen object, Sanji. As she found out that Sanji's enemy was Kalifa,a woman, Nami confronted her after blaming Sanji for his chivalry and being defeated.



She started at a disadvantage after being made slippery by Kalifa's Awa Awa no Mi. After being heavily injured, she found the ability's weakness, water. After this realization, Kalifa started to use her Rokushiki techniques. Nami then generated a rainfall using her new Clima Tact, and returned back to normal. She defeated Kalifa with a Thunder Lance Tempo and grabbed the key. She was found by Franky and together they proceeded to find Robin.

When she escaped through the tunnel, she was met by Kokoro, Chimney, and an injured Chopper. Water started to flow through the passage they were in, and they ran. They caught up with Zoro, Sogeking, and Sanji, who were also running from the rushing water. They were saved by Kokoro who turned out to be a mermaid. They found an escape ship and got on it, rejoining Robin and Franky. They had to get off the escape ship to fight of the Buster Call while Luffy fought [[Rob Lucci
 * Lucci]]. Unfortunately, their escape ship exploded after being hit by several cannon balls from the Marine battleships.



As Luffy defeated Lucci, their next problem was finding a way to escape. Nami and the other Straw Hats all heard a voice telling them to jump into the sea. They realized that the voice was the Going Merry and together, they jumped onto the Merry and finally escaped.

With the Going Merry, everyone had managed to escape Enies Lobby safely. However, after escaping, Iceburg arrived in a Galley-La ship just in time to pick up the Straw Hat Pirates as the Merry suddenly broke apart. Luffy then gave the Going Merry a viking funeral by burning it as the crew tearfully said goodbye.

Post-Enies Lobby Arc


Nami was later seen lounging by a pool while eavesdropping on Luffy and Coby's conversation with a Den Den Mushi about military technology (such as putting Kairoseki on the bottom of military ships) in order to discover how ships could cross the Calm Belt. When she heard them laughing and catching up on old times, she stopped listening to the conversation to give them some privacy. Later, she went to the victory party with the other Straw Hats, and Paulie complained about her swimsuit being too revealing.

After the party, she was upset to see that so much of the 100,000,000 had been spent on the party, and beat up Luffy over it. She was disappointed over not being able to buy furniture, but quickly forgot about it while going clothes shopping with Robin.

Nami received her first bounty: 16,000,000. Out of all the Straw Hats, she was the only one who complained about receiving a bounty (though not the only one to complain at all). She said that the photographer told her that he was a Water 7 reporter, so she willingly posed.

During the discussion over Usopp's plans to return, Nami argued that Usopp should be allowed to return after Zoro raised his objections. When Usopp rejoined the crew, while both he and Luffy cried over each other, she said, smiling through her tears, that they were both idiots.

Adventure on Ghost Island
After sailing for some time on the Thousand Sunny, Nami and the rest of the crew came across a mysterious barrel floating on the ocean. Upon opening it, a flash shot up from it. A mysterious storm then came out of nowhere. Nami, using her skills as navigator, navigated the ship out of harm's way. Nami and the rest of the crew then found themselves in the presence of a ghost ship.

Wanting to explore for treasure, Nami decided to tag along with Luffy who wanted to explore the ship. Sanji decided to go with them in order to keep an eye on Nami. There they met a skeleton named Brook, whose rude behavior left a very bad impression on Nami but amused Luffy. Then Luffy asked Brook to join his crew which in turn the skeleton accepted. This shocked both Nami and Sanji.

After climbing back down to the Thousand Sunny, the crew decided to have dinner. Over dinner, Nami learned of the skeleton's past. Just as Brook was about to perform before Nami and the rest of the crew after dinner, a ghost appeared and some clanking sounds were heard. These sounds were caused by the gates of the island that suddenly appeared, Thriller Bark, closing. These events prompted Brook to head to the island before Nami and the rest of the Straw Hats' eyes.



With Luffy's resolve to go to the island, Nami could not stop him. At that moment, Franky then decided to show the crew a little present, the Mini Merry II. This pleased the crew so much that Nami decided to take out for test drive with Chopper and Usopp. However, while sailing on the little boat, Nami and her companions accidentally bumped into the moat of Thriller Bark and fell from the Mini Merry II into it. There, the three met the Cerberus which chased them until they hid in a tree. In the tree, the three met Hildon who decided to take them to meet Dr. Hogback, to Chopper's delight.

After riding a carriage with Hildon through some woods filled with all sorts of stitched-up creatures, Nami and her companions were left in the middle of a cemetery. There, they were attacked by some Zombies which they luckily escaped from. They then came across Hogback's mansion and met with the doctor and his maid, Cindry.

After dinner with the doctor, in which the three asked about Brook, Nami decided to take a bath. In the middle of it however, she gets attacked by an invisible being. Luckily, Usopp came in the bathroom and drove it away, after seeing Nami naked. After the incident in the bathroom, Nami and her companions found out that the paintings and stuffed trophies in the dining room were all Zombies. Fortunately, the three escaped through a secret door before the Zombies could catch them.

Beyond the secret door, Nami and her companions found themselves in a room filled with Cindry's pictures. Through a newspaper article that Nami found, the three learned that Cindry was an actress that died ten years ago. Just as they were about to leave, the three stumbled across a treasure chest. Nami was very eager to find treasure that her mood completely changed from that when she learned about the previous revelation. Inside however, was a horrific Jack in a box that frightened the three out of the room.

As the three were running through the hallways of the mansion from more painting Zombies, a mysterious bodyguard decided to chase them. Eventually, Nami, along with Usopp and Chopper, overheard Hogback talking about his plan to create Oars, the strongest zombie. The trio then confronted Hogback and were attacked by Cindry before being defeated by Hogback's bodyguard, Ryuma, who Nami notices has the same laugh as Brook before he defeated all of them. When they woke up, the three fled, fighting a group of zombie bodyguards. During the battle, Nami was captured by Absalom, the invisible man who wanted to marry her. After being taken away, she was given sleeping pills and dressed in a white wedding gown. Sanji arrived and gained the upper hand against Absalom before being stabbed from behing. As Sanji was injured, Absalom seized Nami, made her invisible, and escaped to complete his wedding.



Nami regained consciousness while Absalom was about to kiss her, she then attempted to evade his kisses. Lola, a zombie who Nami had befriended by lying about her gender, then arrived, initially attacking Nami for being chosen as Absalom's bride before attacking Absalom to allow her to escape. Absalom shot Lola down with his invisible Bazooka, but Nami then defeated him with one hit of her Thunder Charge: Swing Arm, not realizing that he had been weakened from his fight with Sanji. Lola then revealed that she always knew Nami was a woman.

On her way out, Nami passed over Franky's bridge and found Perona loading treasure onto her ship in an attempt to escape. Perona planned on attacking Nami, but the Shichibukai Bartholomew Kuma arrived and apparently teleported Perona away when she attempted to attack him. He then asked Nami if Luffy had a brother, and she said he does in panic and Kuma left her alone.

Nami finally arrived at the battle against Oars and Moriah right at the time Franky wass stormed by Oars. But one by one, the members were incapacitated, except for her and Usopp. As Oars was about to beat them, Luffy saved them almost instantly in his new form - Nightmare Luffy, which allowed him to seriously injure Oars and Moriah. Lola's crew caught up to Luffy's crew and started to help the injured Straw Hats and Brook while. Oars then managed to stand up again, which led to all of the Straw Hats using team tactics in order to break Oars' spine, permanently incapacitating him.

However, Moriah awakened and emerged, and after a brief speech, used his greatest power, Shadow Asgard, to maximize his power. Using his Gears tactically, Luffy finally finished Moriah off and fainted from exhaustion and wounds, in the process giving everyone their shadows back and leaving Moriah unconscious but alive.

Nami then remembered Kuma is on this island and told everyone. Meanwhile, Kuma reported that Moriah had failed to defeat Luffy and was badly wounded. Kuma was then ordered to kill everyone on Thriller Bark and evacuate the wounded Moriah. He then fought the Strawhats briefly, revealing his Nikyu Nikyu no Mi abilities and injuring several of them. However, instead of outright killing everyone as his orders said, he offered everyone a deal: let him have Luffy's head and he would leave everyone alone. The Straw Hats and everyone else on the island refused, and he set off his bomb-like Ursus Shock that badly wounded everyone. Unbeknownst to most of the rest of the crew, Zoro persuaded Kuma to leave Luffy alone, and in return accepted all the pain and fatigue Luffy had gathered.

Soon after, Nami joined everyone in a celebratory party at Thriller Bark (save for Zoro, who was still recovering from his wounds) lead by Brook and his piano. Luffy finally revealed to Brook that he was friends with Brook's former crewmate, Laboon. Brook stopped partying, cried, and revealed a Tone Dial which had the last song the Rumbar Pirates ever performed together on it. Brook stated that since he had new friends in Luffy and the others, he no longer needed the Dial and would give it to Laboon the next time they met. Brook then asked if the Straw Hat crew invite was still good and Luffy said that it was, Nami joined the others in a shocked response.

After the funeral of Brook's shipmates, the Straw Hat crew, including Brook, left Thriller Bark, but not before Nami received a gift from Lola, which was a Vivre Card of Lola's mother. Luffy mentioned he had a similar card of Portgas D. Ace. When the card he had was revealed to be burning, Lola told him that Ace was in danger. When Nami asked Luffy about saving Ace, he declined and said that Ace could take care of himself.

Strong World


On board the Thousand Sunny, the Straw Hats read news of attacks on East Blue. Luffy decided to return to East Blue to protect it when Shiki's ship appeared overhead. Nami felt the air pressure changing and warned of a coming storm. Luffy called out to Shiki ship, attempting to warn them, gaining Shiki's attention. Shiki then sent down a tone dial to record the warning. His own navigators initially disagreed that a storm was approaching, but it did indeed appear and, with Nami's direction, both ships successfully escaped it.

Afterwards, Shiki shot his navigator and came down to the Sunny to meet Nami. There he revealed his Devil Fruit, the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi, which allowed him to make any inanimate object he touched ignore gravity and float. After learning it was Nami that delivered the warning, and that they are headed to East Blue, Shiki offered to take them there and used his power on Sunny. Together the two ships traveled to the floating island seen before where Shiki suddenly kidnapped Nami. The others tried to rescue her, but by controlling the Thousand Sunny using his power, he escaped them, and scattered them among the fragments of the island.



Back in the present, Shiki asked Nami to become his navigator but she refused. Dr. Indigo appeared with an 'evolved' bird, called Billy, that could use electricity, demonstrating it to Shiki, but after being shocked by it, Shiki tossed it aside. It was explained that a plant there, called IQ], caused animals to evolve very rapidly, making them very strong. Dr. Indigo revealed he enhanced the drug, dubbing it [[SIQ, which Shiki had used on the Merveille island's animals causing them to mutate to large proportions as well as become more intelligent and aggressive. Nami protected Billy, and the bird was left with her as Shiki and his men left.

Nami managed to escape her captivity with the help of Billy, and found the Thousand Sunny. Only moments later, Luffy, being chased by several giant scorpions, arrived. Billy defeated the scorpions using electricity, and Nami and Luffy talked about what had happened. They soon decided to search for the others, using Billy to fly. Robin's group, meanwhile, found a large building where many pirates were gathering, protected by poison plants. They learned there that Shiki was planning to let loose the animals on the island into East Blue in a gambit to force the surrender of the World Government. They also learned that to prove the power of the animals he was planning a demonstration on a village on the floating island.



Luffy and Nami join the others at the village, and they too learn of the plan from the village residents, who, not knowing where the Straw Hats originate, are relieved to be rid of the monsters. Nami is seen by a den den mushi camera, and Shiki decides to personally head over to retrieve her. He arrives sometime later and confronts the Straw Hats and defeats them. Nami is coerced into rejoining Shiki by him agreeing to leave them, and her home town be. Usopp, the only remaining crew member conscious tries to stop her, but Shiki knocks him out.

Nami records a message, using the Tone Dial, which is supposed to be a farewell message. After leaving it, Shiki's men remove the poisonous plants around the village, and cause the animals to destroy it. Nami watches this from Shiki's palace, apparently uncaring. Shortly after, her message is played by the Straw Hats. After hearing only the first bit of it, Luffy is angered to the point that he will not listen to the rest (the rest of the crew does, however).



Nami is found to have in fact been attempting to blow up the plants protecting his palace, but was overcome by the poison. Shiki traps her near the plants and heads off to meet the pirate captains gathering. Later on when the Straw Hats confront Shiki once more, Luffy says that Nami was simply the vanguard and that they are the main force. Luffy chases after Shiki, telling Chopper and Usopp to find Nami. Nami is found by Billy who helps her ignite the explosives just as Chopper and Usopp find her. While all escape harm from the explosion, animals from outside storm the palace adding to the chaos within. Chopper realizes the only way to save Nami is to find the IQ medicine, but Shiki attempts to stop them.

Usopp and Chopper find the IQ plant, but find the medicine is being held by Dr. Indigo. Zoro fights him, and using Asura defeats him and retrieves the medicine. Nami recovers, and feeling a storm approaching has an idea. Shiki receives a Den Den Mushi call warning of the storm and asking him to redirect the island which he does. Unknown to him, the call was in fact coerced by Usopp and Chopper, and that Nami has lead them directly into the storm.



After Shiki is defeated by Luffy and they escape, Nami awakes some time later back on the ship. Luffy confronts Nami about the message she left on the Tone Dial, angry that she did not have faith in them. When the others revealed he did not hear the whole message, Nami tries to stop Luffy from playing it, feeling embarrassed of its content. She, Luffy, and Usopp wrestle over the Dial (Luffy wanting to hear the message, Nami trying to prevent him and throw the Dial overboard, and Usopp wanting to keep the dial since it was valuable). As the Tone Dial is knocked off the ship, it is revealed that on the other half of the message Nami indeed asked them to save her.

An Incident with the World Nobles
When the crew reached the halfway point of the Grand Line, Nami looked at her Log Pose, and it was pointing down meaning Fishman Island was right below them. Luffy, Robin and Brook took the Shark Submerge to look in the depths only to find a rabbit-like Sea King. Luffy defeated it causing it to spit out a mermaid (Keimi) and a starfish (Pappug). Nami was surprised to see a mermaid. Keimi then told the crew that her friend named "Hatchin" has been captured and asked them to rescue him. Nami told Keimi that they would rescue him if she could find a way to get to Fishman Island.



At the kidnapper's hideout, a trap was being set. In the cage was the captive. When the crew saw that it was "Hatchan", a Fishman from Arlong Park, five of the nine members were not happy to see him. Despite all this, Nami agreed to free Hatchan from his situation. Keimi tried to free him herself only to be captured by the Macro Pirates. Luffy then rescued Keimi and the crew battled the Flying Fish Riders. They eventually freed Hatchan and he easily defeated the Macro Pirates. After the battle, the leader Duval attacked the Straw Hat crew in his anger and Sanji soon defeated him. They then had a victory party. Hatchan nervously asked Nami to have some Takoyaki without her beating him. Nami said that she still had not forgiven him from before, but tried some anyway and told him that it were quite good.

The crew then went to search for a man who Keimi said would help with getting their ship to Fishman Island. When Nami saw some shopping malls, she went there with Robin to go shopping. She was listening to Robin talking about fishmen rights and how they lived their lives and when Robin finished Franky came and warned them that Keimi had been captured and was being sold as a slave. When she and Franky arrived at the auction house at Grove 1, Franky thought of getting Keimi back by force. Nami thought it would be easier to play by their rules by buying Keimi back with the money they had. That plan however was thwarted when Saint Charloss made a higher bid and thus, Keimi was sold, angering Hatchan. Luffy, along with the rest of the Rosy Life Riders then arrived.

Hatchan wanted to stop Luffy from striking the Tenryubito for that would cause them to call an admiral. Saint Charloss then shot at Hatchan in hopes he could have another slave for free. Nami, having heard the stories of discrimination against fishmen, was feeling upset for Hatchan but not as upset as Keimi was as she saw her friend getting shot. Because of this, Luffy punched Saint Charloss into the wall. The auction house went silent and everyone fled except for Eustass Kid and Trafalgar Law, who were amused by that. Hatchan was surprised to see Luffy defending him and Nami forgave Luffy for being himself as usual. The World Nobles' guards then attacked the Straw Hats who defeated them easily. They were forced to stop, however when Charloss's sister Shalulia threatened to blow up the explosive collar around Keimi's neck. She was stopped by an old man who managed to remove the collar and knock out the World Nobles and thier guards using a power called Haki After that, the auction house was surrounded by Marines, who were easily defeated by Luffy, Kid, and Law. Everyone made their escape with Nami using Thunderbolt Tempo.

After their escape, the Straw Hats went to Shakky's Rip-off Bar to recuperate where Silvers Rayleigh had told them that he was part of Gol D. Roger's crew. His mentioning that Buggy was in Gold Roger's crew with Shanks caused her (along with Zoro) to recall their unpleasant encounters with him in East Blue. Rayleigh told the Straw Hats that he needed at least three days to coat the Thousand Sunny, so he gave all of them Vivre Cards to locate him as he planned to move the ship in order to hide it from the Marines.

Destruction of the Straw Hat Crew
Just as the Straw Hats departs Shakky's Rip Off Bar and said their farewells to Shakky, Keimi, Pappug, and Hatchan, they were soon confronted by someone who appears to be Bartholomew Kuma. After fighting him for a short time, the Straw Hats, specifically Zoro, realized that who they are fighting may not be the real Kuma after all, but rather a Pacifista replica, as he had not used any of his Nikyu Nikyu no Mi abilities and shot lasers from his hands instead. Despite knowing he was not the real one, they still had difficulty injuring his body, which was harder than steel. When the Pacifista spotted Nami and attempted to fire on her with its beam Robin pounded his mouth shut with her powers, causing the beam to damage the Pacifista. Nami took advantage of the opening by firing a Thunder Lance Tempo right through its torso, doing enough damage to make it go berserk. The rest of the fight was left to the three strongest members of the Straw Hats: Sanji, Zoro and Luffy who were able to finish it.

After the fight, most of the Straw Hats were left exhausted, but the arrival of Sentomaru and another Pacifista, PX-1, forced them to flee. Nami split up with Sanji and Franky, but the Pacifista intercepted them. Kizaru arrived and attacked Zoro, easily dominating the fight. In the nick of time, Silvers Rayleigh arrived and deflected the finishing blow, buying some time for Luffy to yell to his crew to escape, with the plan being to lay low, survive for three days, and rendevous at the Thousand Sunny. Before this plan could be carried out however, the real Bartholomew Kuma appeared and, using his powers, picked off the Straw Hats one by one, much to Luffy's dismay. Nami plead for her captain to help, but was cut short when she suddenly seemed to vanish into thin air.

Straw Hat Separation Adventure: Weatheria


After being sent flying for 3 days, Nami was revealed to have landed on a small sky island called Weatheria, where the study of weather is conducted. A local man named Haredas took her in and cared for her. She was later seen crying, stating that she wanted to go home. In order to cheer her up, Haredas showed Nami a special knot that caused wind to blow when pulled. Unamused, Nami took out her frustration on him. Later, the two are seen together as Nami observes Haredas doing business and the pair are shown again, with Haredas showing Nami "weather science".

Later, Nami is imprisoned by the scientists for attempting to steal their experiments and information. Upon reading about Ace's death in the newspaper she breaks down sobbing, understanding the heartbreak that Luffy had gone through. Seeing this, the scientists let her free, but it turns out to be a ruse and she manages to escape by taking Haredas hostage. While running, she notes that Luffy had always been there to support his crew to the best of his capacity during their darkest hours, so now it is their turn to return the favor. Though her still-flowing tears caused Haredas to note that her "fake" tears were still flowing, to which she blushes and suddenly snaps back at him to shut up.

While she and Haredas are escaping, she reads the article about Luffy returning to Marineford and gets frustrated at him for not thinking about the crew and only himself. Later, she is caught by the scientists, who reprimand her, but cries crocodile tears to make the scientists apologetic. She runs off, saying she forgives them and that she wants a house from them to live in. Shortly afterwards, she is informed by Haredas of the New World's strange weather and decides that she must learn all about it to be able to help her reckless captain, Luffy, reminiscing of her past experiences with him all the while. She asks Haredas to teach her about the weather ball, but he says that if it is used improperly, it could plunge the world into chaos. Nami then asks about the possibility of using it as a weapon much to Heredas' dismay.

The Straw Hat Reunion


After two years studying on Weatheria, Nami returns to Sabaody Archipelago. At a bar, where a group pretending to be the Straw Hats are recruiting crew members, Nami learns that Marine Headquarters has been relocated due to the decision of Sengoku's successor. When the Fake Luffy has his sights on Nami, she casually rejects him. The Chocolate then threatens her, but Usopp comes and repels the impostor Straw Hat pirates with his new Pop Green weapon. Nami is overjoyed to see Usopp again and comments that Usopp has become more manly after giving Usopp a hug. Nami then gives the fake Straw Hats a thunder cloud and leaves the bar with Usopp. They are next seen having a conversation elsewhere.

Nami and Usopp then ran into Chopper, who is searching for "Robin". After telling Chopper that the Straw Hats he encountered are fakes, they return to the Thousand Sunny. There, they get reacquainted with Robin, Franky, Rayleigh, and Shakky. As Franky amazes Usopp and Chopper with his new upgrades, Nami comments on Franky's unusual body. Rayleigh then says that he is going to teach Nami on how to operate a coated ship. She was pleasantly surprised when she heard from Rayleigh that Luffy was already in the archipelago.

After the ship arrives at Grove 42, Brook soon boards the ship. Brook then asks Nami if he can see her panties again after two years. Nami responds by kicking him across the ship, commenting that she did not show him her panties two years earlier either. She also comments that none of the others have matured in two years. After the Monster Trio arrives with the help of Chopper and a giant bird, Nami greets them all. When Luffy starts admiring Franky's new body, Nami pulls him away while telling him that there are Marine ships nearby.



Nami sees the Kuja's Pirate ship along with the rest of the crew, and Robin informs her about the Kuja Pirates. Nami is then surprised to find out that Luffy knows Boa Hancock and that Luffy was sent to Amazon Lily. Nami then explains how the ship is going to sail underwater and says that they need to raise the sails when Franky releases the floats. Luffy asks Nami if they are ready to set sail, to which she replies yes, and with that she is seen cheering with the rest of the crew as the ship sets sail for Fishman Island.

Undersea Voyage
Nami, along with the crew marvels at the underwater scenery. She is then asked by Sanji to explain what they need to know about a coated ship. As she replies, Sanji gets a massive nosebleed. After Sanji is saved by Luffy, Nami starts explaining about the coated ship. She then sits down and eats one of Luffy's Kuja lunchboxes as Franky explains how their ship was kept safe for two years by Kuma.

With the help of their seacow, the Caribou Pirates caught up with the Straw Hats and prepare for battle. After Caribou sets foot on the Thousand Sunny, Nami recognizes the seacow, which turns out to be Mohmoo. Mohmoo fled in fear after seeing Nami, Sanji, and Luffy leaving Caribou behind. The Straw Hats then tie up Caribou as he begs for mercy. With that settled, Nami then explains the underwater currents and the right path to take, but as usual, most of the other Straw Hats quickly lose interest in Nami's explanation much to her annoyance. When they reach the "underwater waterfall", the crew encounters the Kraken. Much to Nami's dismay, Luffy insists on taming the sea monster. Nami screams in terror when she witnesses the Kraken destroying Caribou's ship. Nami suggests Franky to use the Coup De Burst to escape the Kraken, but Franky says that will make the ship's bubble shrivel. The Monster Trio then equip themselves with Barefoot Coating, fight the Kraken out in the sea and defeat it. However, because the Monster Trio are not wearing life-lines, they got separated from Nami and the rest of the crew as the ship goes down the underwater current.

After reaching 7000 meters below the surface, the crew encounters more sea monsters. She along with the rest of the crew are spooked by all the deep sea creatures. When it came to light that Caribou had managed to escape, she started to get worried, though he was quickly captured by Franky. As it started to get hotter, Nami realized that they were near undersea volcanoes and told the crew to steer away from them. However they soon saw a light in the ocean, which they approached before realizing that they were headed straight into the jaws of a Sea Devil. They were saved thanks to an Umibozu, who quickly revealed himself to be an enemy. Then a ghost ship appeared, scaring her along with Chopper, Usopp and Brook. They quickly found out that the ghost ship is in fact the Flying Dutchman, led by captain Vander Decken. As they were about to be attacked by the Umibozu, they were saved thanks to the newly tamed Surume. However just as soon as the crew was once again reunited, the sea started rumbling, with Nami confirming that an undersea volcano was about to erupt.



Nami orders Luffy to tell Surume to get far away from the volcano. However, Surume is already running away. She seems pleased that they are able to escape. She then notices that the magma is running down the side of the volcano to the ocean floor and that the currents were swirling due to the temperature differences. She says that they need to go a little farther to make it into a specific trench. When Franky sees something above the ship, Nami realizes that it is a rockslide caused by the volcano, effectively destroying the trench. When they reach the bottom of the trench, there is a bright light emmenating from an island. Nami confirms with the log pose that they have arrived at Fishman Island. She then tells Luffy to stop thinking about the food on the island and help her search for an entrance.

When Hammond and the New Fishman Pirates show up, Nami looks uncomfortable seeing the tattoo of the Arlong Pirates on his neck. Hammond gives the crew two options: join the New Fishman Pirates or die. Knowing that Luffy will reject Hammond's offer of joining the New Fishman Pirates, she tells Franky to refuel the ship. She says that they do not stand a chance against the fishmen, as the water pressure is too strong. She then tells Franky about her plan to use the last of the ship's air in a Coup de Burst to get away from the pirates and charge right into Fishman Island.

Trouble in the Underwater Paradise
Hammond does not take kindly to Luffy's rejection and prepares to attack the Thousand Sunny. Franky activates Coup de Burst and the ship flies through the bubble surrounding Fishman Island. The ship then falls into a current and the Straw Hats get separated.

Nami remained with Franky and Robin after their entrance to Fishman Island. They went on separate ways to do different things. Nami decided to do some shopping. Nami eventually makes her way to Pappug's mansion. She then goes for a little shopping in the Criminal clothing store on the first floor. Nami complains for the expensive prices and bargains with a store clerk to lower the prices. She then reunites with Luffy, Usopp, Brook, Pappug, and Keimi. Nami scolds Pappug for the high prices and demands a discount. However, Pappug decides to let Nami and her friends have anything they want for free. After hearing this joyful news, the pirates quickly empty the store much to Pappug's dismay. They then hear a commotion outside the store and they find that King Neptune has arrived to meet the pirates. Nami and the others are then invited by the King to Ryugu Castle.

The Straw Hats, Keimi, and Pappug are riding on Megalo and Neptune is on Hoe, as he calls to them not to fall off. Luffy asks Nami if she knew where the others went. Nami told them that Franky went to look for one of Tom's relatives and Robin went to look up some important history, so the three split up. She told them they did not really have too many problems. Nami then asks Neptune a question, calling him grandpa, causing Pappug to bite her on the head and tell her to call him god of the sea, master Neptune. She asks why Fishman Island is so bright despite being 10,000 meters below the surface. Neptune told her that Fishman Island came to be when fishmen began living on the sea floor where there was light. He explained that the roots from a tree called Sunlight Tree Eve reach down to the sea floor and transfer light to Fishman Island.



Upon arriving at the palace, everyone looked at in awe and Nami marveled at its beauty. After entering the castle, Luffy wanders off in search for food and Nami wonders where Luffy went. After receiving word of the mysterious disappearances of the mermaids from Mermaid Cove and of Madam Shyarly's ominous prediction, the palace guards and personnel took action against the Straw Hats. Nami, Usopp, and Brook battle against the attacking guards. Nami is surprised to see Zoro, who was locked up a while ago, joins the fight.

The Straw Hats eventually subdue and tie up the king, the ministers, and the royal guards. While her crew mates are having a little argument, Nami says to herself that she was enjoying the peace, sightseeing, and shopping. She then asks a guard to tell her where is the treasury much to Usopp's annoyance. When Nami asks why with an innocent-looking face, Usopp becomes more annoyed. After Zoro says that they should leave Fishman Island, Nami informs the group that the log pose is not working like it used to. The Minister of the Left states that the log pose will not work in the New World. The minister then offers to provide them information if they untie him.

The three princes of the Neptune House return to the palace only to find it under the control of the Straw Hats. Since the princes are unable to enter, Fukaboshi speaks with Zoro through Den Den Mushi. While Zoro is making demands, Nami asks for one billion beli annoying Usopp once again. Nami then listens to Fukaboshi as he reveals Jinbe's message. After hearing noises coming from Shirahoshi's room, Neptune begs the Straw Hats to check up on the princess to ensure her safety.

Brook instantly dashes off to her location while carrying the Minister of the Right. When they return, the minister informs Neptune of Shirahoshi's disappearance and Brook yells that pirates (pawns of Hody Jones) are invading the palace. Nami and Zoro act calm while Usopp panics.

After Zoro defeats the pirates, Neptune demands that Shirahoshi be returned to him. When Neptune suspects that she left with Luffy, Nami states that Luffy would not kidnap anyone and tell the king to place his suspicions on someone else. During this conversation, one of the pirates manages to open the connection corridor. Nami and the others then encounter Hody Jones and Vander Decken IX. Decken then learns from Neptune that Shirahoshi is no longer in the palace and quickly goes after her. Nami notices that Hody Jones has an Arlong tattoo and goes off to an unknown location.



She is later seen wearing an air bubble around her head while clinging to Keimi's back. She asks Keimi a little about Jinbe as she remembers that he used to be in the same crew that Arlong was in before he founded the Arlong Pirates. Nami explains that she thinks she understands what Jinbe meant by his message "Don't fight Hody". She also thinks that the history with Arlong and Hody runs deep, and wants to ask Jinbe about it. She then asks Keimi to take her to the Sea Forest.

Nami and Keimi soon arrive at the Sea Forest and meet Luffy, Shirahoshi, Jinbe, Hatchan, Franky, Chopper, and Sanji. Nami informs everyone about Hody Jones' raid on the Ryugu Palace. Nami then listens to Jinbe as he reveals that he was the one responsible for allowing Arlong to run wild in the East Blue.

When Sanji offers some tea, Nami brushes him off, saying that they are in the middle of a serious conversation. Before Jinbe explains his explanation, Nami reminisces her suffering under Arlong's tyranny. She states that while she has no intention of forgiving Arlong, she noticed something during her time on Sabaody Archipelago. Nami mentions that Sabaody Park resembles Arlong Park. After that, Nami listens to Jinbe as he explains the fishmen and merfolk's dark past as well as the back stories of Queen Otohime and Fisher Tiger.

After Jinbe finishes his story, he states that he will take any punishment Nami desires. Nami shows no resentment to Jinbe since Arlong was the one to blame. She also says that she does not hate fishmen kind as a whole. Nami simply states she can trust him since he is a friend of Luffy. When Jinbe begins to cry, she takes pity on him knowing how hard it must have been for him.



She then has a friendly conversation with Shirahoshi. Nami comments that Otohime was a great mother and Shirahoshi is glad to hear it. Shirahoshi explains that she has a tendency to cry whenever she thinks about her mother and mentions that she feels strangely comfortable around Nami. Nami replies that it's because they have a similar past and understand each other. When Hatchan is about to reveal Hody's plan, a visual Den Den Mushi appears and the group watches Hody's speech to Fishman Island.

When Hody shows the chained-up king, Nami remarks on how the other Straw Hats, mainly Zoro, caused the king to be captured. Jinbe expresses shock at the news, but Keimi explains that it was a big misunderstanding and that the Straw Hats were attacked first. Hody then addresses the Straw Hat Pirates and shows the imprisoned Zoro, Usopp, and Brook. Nami and co. show shock at the turn of events. When Luffy expresses joy after learning of his 400,000,000 bounty from Hody, Nami scolds Luffy. Nami then watches Luffy and Jinbe settling their dispute on how to deal with Hody. Jinbe eventually comes up with a plan. When Jinbe mentions that someone will have to steal the tenryubito letter away from Hody, Nami volunteers to do it, saying she is the best person for the job.

Battle for Fishman Island
She travels to Gyoncorde Plaza while invisible. She steals the World Nobles' letter from the New Fishman Pirates. After Luffy saves the king from certain death, Nami reveals herself. Nami then stands with the rest of the Straw Hats preparing to fight against the New Fishman Pirates. Nami gives the World Noble's letter to Shirahoshi. When Franky mentions a new weapon in the Soldier Dock, Nami gets in it along with Usopp, Chopper and Pappug, waiting for the door to open. She then rides out in the Brachio Tank V, riding in the cockpit with Usopp and Pappug, explaining that the cockpit expands when they pull a lever.

The tank crashes into a pitfall knocking Nami around inside the cockpit, to which Franky pushes her and the others out. When the tank transforms into Iron Pirate "Franky Shogun" Chopper and Usopp were amazed while Nami just blankly stared at it, unimpressed. A lone Fishman Pirate tries to attack her from behind, thinking her weak. She blocks his sword swipes with her bo-staff, telling him not to underestimate the power of Weatheria's "Weather Science". She defeats him with her attack "Gust Sword". At a later point Wadatsumi who was attacked by Jinbei falls onto Nami. When the wind pressure gets intense Sanji comes in and protects her by kicking him.



Nami is then seen emitting several dark colored balls in a line from her Clima-Tact. The pirates wonder if she is a witch, to which she replies that they can call her Ms. Magician, but in reality her attack is carefully calculated chemistry. She then electrocutes the pirates around her by swinging her staff, performing an attack called "Black Ball: Thundercloud Rod". Ikaros Much gets enraged at Nami for using an attack that burns. Zeo turns invisible and grabs her ankles, holding her in place and Ikaros comes up to stab her with a spear. As Nami asks for help, Brook appears in between her and Ikaros and takes the hit from the spear. Luckily, the spear has no effect on him. After Franky punched away Ikaros, Brook steps on Zeo and reveals him, showing Nami why she could not move earlier.

After all the leaders of the New Fishman Pirates have been defeated, Nami and the other Straw Hats look up into the sky as Luffy tries to destroy Noah. When the Sea Kings stop Noah from falling, saving the ship and the island at the same time, everyone on Fishman Island celebrates.

The After Battle Celebration and Departure
While the crew is resting after the battle, Nami is looking at the sky with concern trying to find Luffy. When Luffy appeared in the hands of Shirahoshi after they got back down to the ground and that he needed a blood transfusion, Nami was shocked to learn about the old law forbidding humans and fishmen from sharing blood. She then watches as Chopper performs the blood transfusion on Luffy and Jinbe and is happy to see Luffy regain consciousness. While traveling through the air on the Sunny, she is annoyed when she hears Zoro use the same logic Luffy did as to why he does not want to be a hero. She then redirects her attention to Luffy, who is trying to convince Jinbe to join the crew. She then goes to the banquet at Ryugu Palace, where she is captivated by Maria Napole's singing voice and then cheering when the Mermaid Cafe dancers arrive. She is later seen celebrating a victory over Fukaboshi in a drinking contest. Some time after, Nami is sitting off to one side with Chopper, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp. She tells Luffy that she drank too much and is trying to sober up. She then listens to Jinbe's summation of what happened to the world powers during the last two years. She then remembers meeting the Blackbeard Pirates in Mock Town when Jinbe tells them that Blackbeard became a Yonko.

She follows Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji to Shirahoshi's room and after Luffy dispatch Caribou. She asks the Minister of the Right about the thief and is appalled to hear that all the treasure in the palace was stolen. She asks Neptune why he is not going after the thief. Neptune answers that the treasure is not important considering that the lives of Fishman Island have been saved. He even tells Nami that the crew can have it all as he is in their debt. She then yells at Luffy and Zoro, asking why they could not have just tied Caribou up instead sending him flying. Nami then throws the Monster Trio out of the palace so they can pursue Caribou.



When the trio return to the palace, Nami learns that they give the treasures to Big Mom and Nami beats them up for it. When the time comes for the Straw Hats to leave Fishman Island, the Minister of the Left gives Nami a new Log Pose which will help them navigate in the New World. As the Minister of the Left explains the properties behind it, Luffy overhears it and wishes to go to the scariest island out there, causing Nami to strangle him and tell him to listen to her as to where they go. As everyone on Fishman Island bid the Straw Hats farewell, the Thousand Sunny sails towards the New World.

On their way to New World, Nami decides to take a shower using her new Shower Tempo. She remarks how she missed having luxurious baths on Sunny during those 2 years. Later when Sunny was getting sucked by the White Storm, Nami rushed to the deck and informed everyone to take ship away from the current but it was too late. Finally the Straw Hats entered the New World and Nami was seen among them remarking on the violent weather of New World.

Arriving at Punk Hazard
Soon after entering the New World, the crew spots an island surrounded by a sea of flames. The Straw Hats then receive a distress call from someone who seems to be in trouble and mentions something about a samurai. When Luffy decides to rescue the person, Nami forms a road of clouds that will enable him to reach the island. After Usopp, Luffy, Zoro, and Robin arrive at the island on the Mini Merry II, Nami comments to Franky that the clouds on the opposite side of the island appear to be winter clouds.

While Usopp, Robin, Luffy, and Zoro fight a dragon, Nami and the remaining crew members on the Thousand Sunny are knocked out by sleeping gas. They, except for Brook, are then abducted by three individuals wearing hazmat suits.

The captured Straw Hats later wake up in a cell and find parts of Kin'emon's still-living head. After putting the pieces of the head back together, the group gets information from the samurai. Once they decide to break out, Franky uses his Radical Beam to blast a hole in the wall, allowing the crew to escape. They run through the halls of the complex and stumble upon a room filled with children of various sizes. The children are excited to see them, but Sanji just wants to escape the room before they are recaptured.

While their pursuers come after them, the children begs the pirates to help them escape. Nami could not ignore their cries and decides to help them. Sanji, Franky, and Chopper then attack the men in the gas masks. Nami and Chopper run away with the children while Sanji and Franky hold the enemy back. As they run, the children tell Nami and Chopper about how they were abducted and that they were inflicted with some kind of disease. Nami is suspicious, and tells Chopper to later investigate the children. They then run into a room with corpses frozen in the walls, floor, and ceiling. Frightened, the group escapes and meets up with Franky, Sanji, and the head of the samurai.



They all then run out of the building and into the shocked view of the Marines of G-5, Smoker, Tashigi, and Law. They immediately turn around and try to find another exit to avoid any combat. As they are running away, Law uses his ability to rearrange the personalities of the Straw Hat Pirates, putting Nami in Franky's body and Sanji in Nami's body. After reuniting with Luffy's group, they take shelter in a laboratory ruin. Sanji then begins to act rather indecently, causing Nami (in Franky's body) to attack him. When the children ask Nami to show off some of Franky's cyborg functions, she states that she is not going to do that. The Straw Hats then tie up Brownbeard and bring each other up to speed on the current situation. They then interrogate Brownbeard and learn about a man known as Caesar Clown.

Kin'emon later leaves the group to find his torso and Brook and Sanji volunteer to go search for him while having perverted thoughts. Nami makes Zoro go with them so they, especially Sanji, will not do anything indecent to her body. Before long, several of the giant children start to feel pain, causing Nami to ask Chopper (in Sanji's body) whether they were sick, which Chopper replies in the negative. After learning that the children's daily candy was actually dosed with drugs to make them addicted and forcing them to stay in the lab, one of the kids suddenly went berserk much to the Straw Hats and the smaller childrens' shock. Usopp mangaes to put the children to sleep and the giant ones are then tied up. Luffy then decides to help the children and that they should start by heading into the lab. Chopper (in Sanji's body) and Nami chose to stay behind. When Franky (in Choppers body) suggests that they try to find a way to unscramble themselves, Luffy justs says that they should just stay the way they were, which causes Nami to snap at her captain.



Meanwhile Sanji, in Nami's body, is found unconscious next to giant footprints along with Brook and Zoro. Luffy, Usopp, Franky, and Robin then leave Chopper and Nami to watch the children while they search head to Caesar's lab. While they are gone, the Yeti Cool Brothers attack. Nami then demands Brownbeard to explain who they are up against. Brownbeard gives her a brief profile on the brothers and one of them appears and shoots him. They then kidnap Nami on Caesar Clown's orders.

Alliance with Law and Confrontation with Caesar Clown


As Luffy and Franky (in Chopper's Monster Point) are following the giant footprints, the brothers ambush them. After Rock is defeated, Scotch attempts to flee with Nami in tow only to be stopped by Law. Once Scotch is down, Luffy frees Nami as Law makes a proposal to the Straw Hat captain. Luffy accepts Law's offer much to Nami's protests. Luffy, Franky, Nami, and Law then return to the hideout. Law puts Chopper and Franky back in their own bodies, and puts Nami in Sanji's body since Nami's body is not nearby.

Usopp and Nami stay behind to watch the children while the rest go to the research facility to confront Caesar. The children later wake up and start acting crazy again due to their withdrawal symptoms. Nami and Usopp try to figure out on how to calm them, but the children are getting more out of control. They start demanding candy to make them feel better and start rampaging. Caesar Clown then shows up behind Nami and Usopp offering the children candy if they return to the research facility. As Caesar lures the children to him, Usopp and Nami try to stop them only to get beaten down. When Usopp and Nami try to attack Caesar directly, he simply suffocates them, leaving them to be beaten by the giant children. They are saved when Brownbeard regains consciousness and attacks Caesar out of revenge for his betrayal. Caesar quickly subdues Brownbeard and the two Straw Hats and takes back the children.



Nami later wakes up, and comments that she survived because Sanji's body is so strong. She then helps Usopp. After Smiley explodes and releases poisonous gas on the island, Brownbeard, who survived Caesar's attack, helps Nami and Usopp escape the gas cloud. While fleeing, they join up Zoro's group. Once they reach the laboratory, Brownbeard and the group manage to get through the shutters after Zoro and Kin'emon cut it open.

After the G-5 Marines plug up the hole made by Kin'emon and Zoro, they prepare to arrest the Straw Hats and Brownbeard. As Law is telling Smoker and Tashigi not to get in their way, Nami demands him to switch back Sanji and her bodies (to which Sanji disagrees). Law complies and switches their bodies back. Nami then notices that she's wearing a different coat and punches Sanji while accusing him of peeking at her body. Law then tells everyone present about a way off the island but will have two hours to escape. They then split into three groups. Nami goes with Sanji, Zoro, Kin'emon, Usopp, and Brook while they go look for the children.

Nami rides on Brownbeard's back as they go along. Caesar's henchmen blow a hole in the wall of Building A with a cannon, letting the toxic gas inside. The group runs from the gas as the gate to the passageway to Building B closes. Everyone, except for some of the Marines, narrowly escapes before the gate shuts completely. Brownbeard then takes the group ahead, leaving Tashigi and her subordinates to mourn the ones who died. After Brownbeard, Kin'emon, and the Straw Hats with them enter Building B, the tiny dragon comes and attacks them and begins to breathe fire everywhere. While Kin'emon and Brook argues on who should fight the dragon, it gets caught in Nami's new attack, Thunder Trap, and is electrocuted. Brook and Kin'emon proceed to deal the finishing blow.

Nami and the group then find Chopper (in Monster Point) trying to prevent the children from getting their candy. Regardless of his efforts, the children beat him down and run pass him when the Rumble Ball wears off. Nami, Kin'emon, Zoro, Robin, Usopp, and Brook quickly come to Chopper's aid and run after the children to the Biscuits Room. Once they reach there, they encounter Monet. Monet attacks the group, covering the Biscuits Room in snow, and Nami regrets taking off her coat.



Chopper and Nami tend to Robin, but she assures them that her wound is only a cut. Monet tries to attack them when they attempt to run after the children, but Zoro quickly blocks her. After getting hit by Nami's Heat Egg, Monet dives into the snow and stops Nami, Chopper, and Robin from leaving by creating a wall to block their path. An enraged Monet suddenly ensnares Nami and Chopper. As she attempts to bite Chopper, Nami swiftly move Chopper out of harm's way and Robin uses her Hana Hana no Mi abilities to shatter Monet, saving Chopper and Nami from another attack. Zoro then cut down the snow barrier, allowing Robin, Nami, and Chopper to go after the children.

After escaping the Biscuits Room, Nami tries to help Mocha get away by using her "Milky Ball" technique to slow down the berserk children. Despite Nami and Robin's best efforts, some of the children manage to get around them and catch Mocha. No longer able to get away from the children, Mocha swallows the whole bag of candy as Nami, Robin, and Chopper watch in terror. As Mocha starts coughing up blood, Nami is surprised to see Sanji and the G-5 Medical Team arrive to help. With their assistance, the beserk children are then returned to normal.

While Chopper tends to Mocha's condition, Nami, Robin, Sanji, the children, and the G-5 with them make haste to Building R. Zoro and Tashigi later joins up with them. After Luffy defeats Caesar, Nami's group reunites with him in Building R. Once everyone reaches Building R safetly, they board a rail car and make their escape.



Nami and the others are able to escape outside and find Franky battling Baby 5 and Buffalo in his Franky Shogun. Luffy and the others gush over how cool his robot is, but Nami and the other women are left unimpressed. Seeing themselves outmatched, Buffalo and Baby 5 grab Caesar and try to make a hasty retreat. Law prepares to stop them, but Nami and Usopp insist they handle the situation themselves. Nami states with a smile that she is itching to fight after running away so much.

She creates a enormous thundercloud above the pair which shocks them with a lighting strike. The attack knocks out Baby 5 as she, Buffalo, and Caesar fall out of the sky. Caesar pleads Buffalo to save him, but multiple projectiles fired by Usopp quickly take him out. Caesar tries to escape on his own but the last projectile turned out to be seastone handcuffs which quickly cancel out Caesar's powers, choke, and weaken him. With this, Doflamingo's subordinates are defeated and fall into the ocean. Law proclaims the first step of his plan completed.

Aftermath
Sometime afterwards, she is approached by Tashigi, who tearfully asks her to let her take care of the kidnapped children, to which Nami agrees, wishing the best for them. She is later seen on the Marines' ship, gazing at the horizon. Usopp approaches her and asks her if she talked to the Marines about the kids. Nami confirms, saying that she is a pirate, so helping them wasn't exactly her forte, not to mention that the Marines would most likely blame the Straw Hats for the abductions. The young pirate adds that she is also dreadful at dealing with female Marines because she feels so safe around them, due to the fact that her mother was a Marine herself. She also says that being around a strong female Marine is the best for the children, before berating Usopp for being "a pushover", to which he replies she is one to talk. Nami is later seen enjoying herself at the party held by her crew, the Marines and Caesar Clown's former henchmen, playing with some of the children.

Later, as Tashigi and her men takes the children away from Punk Hazard, the Straw Hats leave with Law, Kin'emon, and Momonosuke. While sailing towards their next destination, Dressrosa, everyone gathers around so Luffy and Law can tell them about their plan. Law proceeds to explain about Doflamingo's connection to the underworld and the plan to decimate Kaido's forces.

Later that evening, when Nami informs Sanji, Brook, and Kin'emon that Momonosuke is bathing together with Robin, they become extremely jealous. After Robin and Momonosuke leave the bath wearing towels, Sanji, Brook, and Kin'emon yell at the boy out of a fit of rage until Nami reprimands them. Nami then offers Momonosuke to sleep with her and Robin for the night, much to his delight. When the morning newspaper arrives, everyone reads the news about Dofamingo's resignation from the Shichibukai. They also see that the paper explains about Luffy and Law's alliance as well as the alliance between Kid, Hawkins, and Apoo.

The Next Objective
After Law contacted Doflamingo to inform him that they will bring Caesar to Green Bit, Nami discussed with Law about finding the SMILE factory. Nami then had a meal with the rest of the crew while Kin'emon and Momonosuke told them the story about how they were shipwrecked and drifted to Dressrosa, how Momonosuke was separated from his father, and how Kanjuro was captured. The Thousand Sunny later approached Dressrosa.

After disembarking, Law gives Nami a vivre card which pointed to Green Bit. Law instructed Nami to use it if anything happened. The group split into three teams. Nami was with the team that was left to guard the Sunny.

Nami and Chopper then notice that Momonosuke becomes depressed whenever he is on his own as if something was on his mind. Realizing that he will not talk about it, they decide to play Shogun with him to at least keep his mind off of it. Brook puts his head on her lap, mistaking the game for an invitation and gets hit for it. As Brook starts singing a song for the group, they hear strange sounds and a voice coming from the men's room.
