## One Piece Chapter 617, pages 2-3: Major Incident on Coral Hill - Chapter: 617 - Pages: 2-3 - Characters: Hody Jones, Nami, Neptune, Jimbei, Arlong, Usopp, Roronoa Zoro ### Summary Page 2: Hody recognizes the convenience of the chaos and gives credit to the Straw Hats: "To think that my sworn enemies, the Straw Hat Pirates, would aid in my conquering of the Ryuuguu Palace...!!" Nami studies him and notices the mark on his body: "...?! He bears... Arlong's mark..." Neptune, still chained, remembers Jimbei's warning: "...Nghh... I had heard from Jimbei that there was something afoot in the Fishman District... But I never expected you, former members of Neptune's own army, to be behind it...!! Have you no shame, Hordy?!!" Hody laughs at the idea of shame. He says Neptune assumes he served with pride, but the only reason he joined the army was "to hone the skills I would need on the field of battle." Hody declares, "And it worked. I have become strong!!!" Nami, Usopp, Zoro, and the others realize this is not simply a random uprising but a rebellion rooted in Arlong's ideology and in Neptune's own ranks. Page 3: Hody states his hatred in full. He says, "Ever since I was a child, I have seen nothing but fishmen being oppressed by the detestable humans...!! My greatest heroes were the Arlong Pirates, for having the strength and ambition to smash those filthy humans' faces in!!!" He had dreamed that when Arlong conquered the world, he would stand at his side as right-hand man. "But thanks to a certain bunch of filthy humans, that dream never came to pass!!!" he says. The New Fish-Man Pirates exist "to revive their broken will!!!" Nami's expression hardens at the idea that these fish-men are sympathizers of Arlong and his cronies. Hody, unaware of her personal history with Arlong, sneers, "Hmm? Arlong?! I don't think I've ever tasted that particular delicacy! Yohohoho-" and Usopp accidentally kicks Nami in the shock, making her snap, "Ouch!! Usopp-san, why are you kicking me?!" The humor does not soften the threat: Hody has inherited Arlong's hate and expanded it into a kingdom-level coup.
