Chapter 225 summary
Bellamy and his crew mock Luffy and Zoro inside the bar for refusing to fight back despite the beatings, while Nami grows furious at their inaction. Bellamy spits on Luffy and slams both Luffy and Zoro through the counter and floor, leaving them battered and bleeding on the ground. Nami declares that Sky Island exists, prompting Bellamy to order them out of the bar as his crew laughs. Outside, Marshall D. Teach eats cherry pies and tells the group that a man's dream never ends, then watches them depart after mentioning Sky Island. On the Going Merry, Usopp repairs the ship with help from Chopper while Sanji questions the effort and suggests buying a new vessel. Usopp and Chopper laugh at Sanji until he threatens to withhold dinner. Sanji then hears a voice singing "Saalvaage" from a nearby ship, and Usopp recognizes the tune in shock.
