Chapter 2: Arlong’s Legacy

Pain...pain was all that Luffy knew at that exact moment. It filled every fiber of his being.
He had never before been so...hurt. So helpless. How had this happened? That’s right he
had been defeated by Captain Blood and now he and his crewmates were being tortured
before Blood tired of this and decided to end their miserable lives. His crew...they were
all suffering. And so was she - Nami...his navigator, his nakama.

He knew. She couldn’t hide her suffering from him like she was able to from everyone
else. The others they thought her a traitor. But he knew better. He trusted Nami, with his
life, with his most precious treasure.

She was suffering, maybe even moreso than he was right at that moment. Sure the pain
was intense but who knew that kind of spiritual pain Nami was suffering. If that bastard
hurt one hair on her precious head Luffy didn’t know what he was going to do. But what
could he in truth do? He was helpless...near death even. And as for Nami, he couldn’t
help her. She was at Blood’s mercy while he was being stabbed repeatedly below the
deck wondering where this noise was coming from...oh that’s right he was screaming.
How that sucked ass.

He hoped Nami didn’t hear him. He felt ashamed...how he had let her down. How he had
broken his promise to keep her smiling. Since they had been held prisoner on this ship he
had never seen her smile not even once. It was shattered - her happiness, her freedom,
her dreams. He may be dense but he knew this. He cursed his stupidity, his naivete.
Maybe if he were smarter, if he had known the odds were so obviously against him he
wouldn’t have gotten Nami into this situation.

She was a prisoner again...a pawn, a tool...as Arlong had so called her. And it was his
fault. He hadn’t been strong enough, he hadn’t been smart enough to prevent this from
happening. He had let his crew down. He had let -her- down.

Luffy clenched his fists...they felt squishy with his own blood.

He opened one eye with much effort in time to see the glimmer from a razor blade that
was being brought closer to him.

‘So they plan on carving me up with razor blades now versus getting stabbed repeatedly
with a blunt sword. Great...just great. If only they dared to face me on their own and
didn’t hide behind their Captain. I’d show them a thing or to! Even so, if all this pain and
suffering meant that Nami would be safe...I would put up with it all. Dammit why am I so
stupid. Nami...’

The razor blade drew near and after several agonizing hours of his flesh beings carved
with curved swirls and designs he finally succumbed to the darkness.

When next Luffy awoke he found himself above deck. He swung his limp head with
effort to look to his left and saw that Zoro, Ussop, and Sangi were tied next to him to the
different masts. They looked to be in about the same shape he was in. This was bad,
really bad. But where was Nami? He slowly brought his hooded eyelids to peer upwards
and saw her...she looked divine to his eyes and yet as his eyes traveled up her delicate
neck he found his eyes starring at this thing around her neck...it felt like hours as he just
stared at it wondering what the hell it was. Then he noticed a chain attached to it and as
his eyes slowly traveled along the chain links until he found himself starring at a hand, a
clawed hand, his hand. It was Captain Blood’s.

Luffy’s head snapped up to see that Blood was holding the leash...to Nami’s...collar. That
bastard! How dare he do this to Nami?! But instead of his eyes revealing the anger and
hate he felt for Blood all he had energy left to reveal was the intense sadness he felt for
seeing her this way. He wished his hate and anger were stronger, stronger enough so that
he could someone regain the strength to fight Blood but he was just too stupid...Blood no
mater how many times he had dealt a death blow seemed to be, well, not dead. Luffy
couldn’t explain it. And he realized he was too stupid to figure it out on his own. He
admitted this to himself, no he needed someone’s help.

Nami...deep down he knew why she had done what she did. If anyone could figure out a
way to defeat Blood it would be her.

That’s when he noticed that Blood had his blade placed under his chin. And that’s when
he heard her speak.

“Blood!” His eyes traveled over to Nami to see her livid. He could almost see flames of
rage flicker about her. “Get away from him! I challenge you to a duel, a fight to the
death. In the sea!”

Luffy blinked, had he heard her correctly? In the sea? Nami...challenging a guy as
powerful as Blood?! This had to be some kind of horrible nightmare. If it wasn’t for his
hands being tied he would have pinched himself - hard. What in the hell was she
thinking?! Had she lost her mind? As he looked at her with an expression of pure
disbelief he noticed there was something different about the look in her eyes. It was a
look she had seen Zoro wear when he faced Hawk-eyes Mihawk. The look of one that
was willing to die to face their destiny head on.

Nami had made her choice and whether or not she survived was irrelevant to her. Luffy
was shocked. What could possibly have driven her to this? Why would she be willing to
toss her life away so easily?! Damn that girl! What in the seven hells was she thinking?
She had to live not die in vain while trying to save them. Even thinking it was pointless
because there is no way it could be done. He wanted to yell at her to forget it! But he
realized something...he was gagged.

Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!

He tried to tell her instead with his eyes. That she should forget about them. Concentrate
on finding a way to eventually escape herself. But as their eyes met he knew it was
helpless to try and convince her otherwise as she shook her head at him. She had
understood but still stuck to her decision. She really was too stubborn for her own good
sometimes.

Nami then turned her back to them as she prepared to launch herself into the ocean for
the impending duel. But then she spoke as if on an afterthought. “Luffy,” Luffy had never
heard her say his name quite like that before. “I never got to thank you for saving me
from Arlong, so thanks. But I realize now that I can’t always depend on others to save
me. Besides I owe you one, more than one really, so Luffy it’s time for me to fight.”

It was suicide.

Luffy couldn’t believe his eyes as he saw Nami jump into the ocean. How could she do
this to them? To him...how could she just leave him! What could possibly make her think
she even had a chance when he, Zoro, Sangi, and Ussop couldn’t even make that guy stay
down with their most deadly attacks...What could she be thinking...

Unless...

Luffy had thought it had been a dream. He had been lying on the ground of his cell, a
pool of his own blood around him. Unable to find the strength to move. And someone
had entered his cell. It had all seemed too heavenly to be real. This beautiful goddess
coming to his aid...was he already dead? Was she an angel? But as her scent wafted
through the air and he recognized it to be that of oranges he knew it was her.

“Luffy...” She had said his name in a hushed voice. She soon was kneeling over him and
Luffy felt cool water being poured over his many wounds, it was so soothing, just being
in her presence. “Don’t worry Luffy...I have a plan.”

As Luffy watched Blood soon follow Nami off the ship he wondered....and knew only
one thing - he would continue to go on trusting her until his very death.

‘Go Nami!’ He mentally cheered.

ooo

As Nami hit the ice-cold water it felt like a hundred tiny knives had pierced her skin. But
she shook it off and used her arms to propel herself back to the surface. She knew it
wouldn’t be long before it happened...

She had cursed Arlong for this long ago but now it might be the only chance she and her
crew had for survival. This curse, this legacy of Arlong.

She could feel her legs coming together, melding, becoming one. She could feel her feet
changing shape becoming longer, thinner. Her nails began to extend, becoming sharper
and claw-like. Her pupils dilated as her vision changed to better suit its surroundings. Her
ears were becoming longer, elfish. With a splash of her newly formed tail she propelled
herself in the direction of where Blood had just surfaced.

Cutting through the violent waves like a knife she felt much faster now and more
powerful. She could feel that she had at least ten times as much strength as she normally
possessed. Nami almost smiled as she remembered her former Master’s words, “A
merman can never be beaten in the water.” So this was the power that the mermen
possessed. The power that through genetic experiments Arlong had somehow managed to
pass onto her. Would this curse of hers turn out to be a blessing in disguise? She
wondered.

Blood was shielding his sensitive eyes from the spray of the salt water as the waves
crashed around him. ‘Where is that wench!’

Suddenly Blood felt himself being pulled under water by an unseen force. A powerful
unseen force. Much too powerful to be that girl...

Blood used his immense strength to bend over and try to detach whatever had a hold of
his leg. But whatever it was it was tenacious. With a swipe of his clawed hand he cut
through whatever had a hold of him. He was free now and made his way back to the
surface.

Nami cried out underwater as Blood cut through the sensitive skin on the top of her hand.
He had left deep gashes there. But she take the time to lick her wounds, the battle had just
begun.

Ignoring the pain and gritting her teeth Nami shot through the water with speed similar to
that of a speeding bullet and began attacking Blood from all sides.

Blood couldn’t understand for the life of him what was going on. Just as he had managed
to break the surface he suddenly was hit on the side by a powerful force then again from
the other side. Soon he was at the mercy of whatever it was and was being hit from all
sides with bone-crunching force. One blow to his ribs cracked several...but in only a few
moments due to his own special powers his bones simply regenerated.

Blood smiled to himself. So the little vixen became powerful in the water. Well, what
good would that do her when she had no idea what the hell she was truly up against.
Sure, some of the blows she had already given them would have killed a normal man, but
he was indeed no normal human. He was a cursed one.

Nami could tell that her blows were having no lasting effect. It was just the same as when
Luffy and the others had faced him. No matter how deadly the attack it seemed to have
no effect. Nami knew there had to be some reason behind it. Something she was
missing...how could someone die over and over again without staying dead....why would
someone crave blood...why would someone have those claws...why was he bat-like.
There had to be some sort of a connection. She vaguely remembered having heard of
such beings before but the legends of these creatures were shrouded in mystery in their
world.

Death...to be killed again and again...or...not to be killed...if one was already dead how
could they die again...that was it! Nami thought as she realized Blood’s true nature.
Undead. He was one of the Undead.

‘Holy Shit!’ Nami panicked. ‘He’s one of the undead. But they’re unstoppable,
unbeatable...immune to death itself...how can I defeat one such as him! It’s impossible.
There must be something...something I could remember from those legends...their
weakness...everyone has a weakness...right....what can it be...think Nami think.’ Nami
pursed her lips in thought as she tried to figure out the connection. The weakness. This
battle was getting her nowhere.

‘Stupid bitch allowing to get herself distracted in the heat of battle!’ Blood thought as he
caught Nami off-guard and wrapped both hands around her slender neck.

Suddenly, Nami found herself choking. Damn him. He had taken advantage of her
pensive state. If only the information would come to her...she had read so many books in
secret while being trapped in the Cartography Room at Arlong Park...now what was
it...Vampires...the Undead...to kill them one needdc...salt...holy water...a cross...just
great...she didn’t have any of those handy. But there was more, yes...more as the black
spots began to speckle Nami’s vision she remembered...silver...something about a silver
substance. Her dagger. Maybe it was her only chance.

Nami through sheer willpower managed to reach between her breasts and pull out the
silver dagger which she had concealed there. She was a thief after all and this dagger had
caught her eye in that it had been carefully stored away under lock and key. It must hold
some sort of significance for him or else it wouldn’t have been treated as such. She then
swung her hand behind her and sliced through the flesh there....severing Blood’s neck
from his shoulders.

The grip around her neck lessened and fell away completely and when Nami looked
behind her Blood was no longer there. He had already sunken beneath the inky black
waves. She waited on baited breath expecting him to reappear. She flinched as the sound
of thunder rang in her ears and a hard downpour of rain began to fall. Had she done it?
Had she really managed to defeat him?!

Luffy!...

“I did it! Throw a rope over I’ve won the duel!” Nami cried as loud as she could hoping
her voice carried above that of the raging storm. Luckily her voice had been heard and
Nami watched with hopeful eyes as a rope was tossed over board for her to use. Now
came the tricky part, since Nami no longer had use of her legs she would have to rely on
upper body strength alone to get herself back on deck. She wouldn’t have use of her legs
until she was dry again.

She placed both hands on either side of the rope and began to pull herself upwards. It was
a slow, agonizing process but she knew what waited for her above deck...them, all of
them, her comrades, her captain, they were now free. She had won. She had finally
managed to not be in the way, to be a nuisance, but had actually saved them.

Finally she grabbed the railing of the ship and pulled herself over the edge to where she
fell to the deck floor with a plop. She pushed herself upwards to look at the others and
saw everyone was stunned into silence by the appearance of a mermaid. All except for
her captain that is. He seemed to be jumping for joy as he looked at her. He didn’t see a
monster, or a freak, he just saw her - Nami. Nami grinned at Luffy afterall it would have
been normal to be shocked. For all they knew she had permanently turned into a mermaid
but he seemed to be totally unaffected by it as if he suspected she was one all along.

She began to use her arms to crawl towards Luffy, her dagger held in her teeth. She
would cut him free first. Their eyes never left each other as she crawled towards him...

But then she heard something.

The sound of something breaking through the ocean.

It couldn’t be.

Nami’s eyes widened fearfully as looked behind her. Blood! He was flying, two albino
bat-like white wings outstretched from either side of his back. His crew cheered on the
return of their beloved Captain. He swiftly landed on the deck and began to walk towards
Nami with swift steps. Nami looked back at Luffy a look of utter defeat on her face. She
had failed...she had thought she had actually managed to win but she had failed....

Before she knew what was happening she felt herself being lifted up from the deck floor,
a powerful clawed hand wrapped around her neck. As she looked at Luffy her vision
began to blur and she was angry that she could not see her beloved captain at least one
last time...what was obscuring her vision...she tasted salt on her lips.

Blood let out a bellowing laughter as he held Nami’s prone form above the deck in his
one hand. “Silly little mermaid! Did you really think that beheading me would have
sufficed? Ah, don’t look so sad. I have to say you were close, if you actually had
managed to have done the deed properly I would have been done for.”

Nami felt a ripple of shock run through her veins. What did he mean.

“Allow me to explain how you only left me nearly beheaded...my head was still attached
just by enough skin where I was able to regenerate. You were so close, my dear, so close
at least give yourself some credit. Many have faced me and have never come so close to
victory before. And to think you -almost- did manage to save your friends. But I’m afraid
you won’t be getting such a chance as that one. But truly remarkable...I can see why your
captain would want you with him.” Blood looked pointedly at Luffy who glared back.
“Yes, I must say Monkey D Luffy you do not lack taste. Nami is an incredible
woman...beautiful...smart...even powerful it seems. And the taste of her skin...” Captain
Blood drawled as he began to trace his tongue along Nami’s jaw line causing her to
shiver in revulsion. “Yes she tastes sooo good...and the taste of her blood....” Blood sunk
his teeth into Nami’s neck causing her to gasp in pain.

Luffy was clenching his fists so hard that his nails were piercing his skin causing a trickle
of blood to go down his arms.

“She truly is a useful wench.” Blood never took his eyes off of Luffy relishing the way
Luffy was reacting to his actions. Luffy was visibly trembling with rage. He was furious
as he watched what Blood was doing, his blood was boiling and hate was beginning to
swirl within his heart. He had never hated someone as much as he hated Captain Blood
right now. He didn’t think he could feel such wrath against another until...

Blood began to bring one of his hands to Nami’s chest where he began to fondle her
there.

“Have you ever tasted her Captain?” Blood mocked as his serpentine tongue peaked out
of his thin lips and lapped up a drop of Nami’s blood that had trickled down the corner of
his mouth. “Have you ever been one with her?” He teased as he grasped Nami’s breast so
hard she yelped in pain. “I assure you, you’ve been missing out. She’s quite a feisty one,
she fights back you know. Not many others have had the audacity to do so. Now that
Nami is mine she will be with me forever. I plan to make her as I am, one of the Undead,
and she will be my little tool to be used as I see fit for all eternity! And now my pet
drink of my blood and become mine forever!”

Blood cut his wrist and held it above Nami’s mouth. Nami tried to turn her head away
only to have Blood take her head in his calloused hand and move it towards his wrist...

Something within the depths of Luffy’s mind snapped.

Nami tried to blink the tears from her eyes and when she did she looked at Luffy...was
that Luffy? He seemed to her to be unrecognizable. His eyes...she had never before seen
him with such evil looking eyes.

Luffy’s teeth had become dagger-shaped, and razor sharp. With a snap of his jaw he had
bitten through the gag. Nami watched as his nails began to lengthen and sharpen. Soon
his muscles were growing, expanding, until the ropes that bound him could no longer
take the resistance and snapped.

With a feral growl Luffy shrugged off his bonds and faced Blood a murderous gleam in
his eye. “GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF HER NOW YOU SICK BASTARD!”

Nami gasped as she felt a fierce aura surrounding Luffy, it was an evil aura one that
chilled her to her very bones. Is this the true power of the Devil’s Fruit?

To be continued...

AN: So what do you think? Would you guys be interested in seeing a flashback of the
previous battle Luffy had with Blood? Or at least getting to see Zoro’s fight? Oh, and
would you guys like to see more interaction between Nami and the others? hehe I sort of
end up concentrating on Nami and Luffy. Just let me know. I keep forgetting about
Ussop lol!!!!
