Although Nami displayed extreme coldness, he could still see some urgency in her eyes. She hoped Zoro would leave immediately and never return.
If anything happened, she could handle it herself and didn't want to burden her innocent teammates.
But her thinking like this only stirred his desire to explore.
He wanted to know what kind of choice this woman would make when faced with the situation before her eyes.
"Since this person has no relation to you, then go over and kill him."
He said very decisively. Nami felt somewhat dazed upon hearing Arlong say this.
She truly felt that he wouldn't possibly do this, but later, the other party really had her make a ruthless move at this time, which made her feel very puzzled.
Of course, someone also handed her a weapon at this time. As long as she pulled this trigger now, Zoro would die before her eyes.
As Zoro's teammate, she knew this person's weaknesses. Although his swordsmanship was very outstanding and his speed was very fast, he was still just a human.
At this time, she really couldn't help but feel that she didn't know what to do. She just couldn't press the trigger for a long time.
Arlong, who was on the side, was originally waiting for a good show to be staged. He didn't expect that this person would still be so hesitant, which made him couldn't help but feel even more displeased.
He was even more certain that this woman wasn't thinking of being loyal to him at all, but was staying by his side, wanting to complete this transaction with him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel very angry. It was also at this time that Zoro noticed that Nami was still unwilling to attack him.
That proved that the other party actually had him, this teammate, in her heart. Since that was the case, then he would just have to end his own life.
Even if he died here, he wouldn't let Nami feel even a bit of entanglement. Her coming to their side now probably really had her own difficulties. He forgave this person.
Just as Nami made up her mind and planned to pull the trigger, Zoro chopped off those nets that were binding him at this time, and his entire person fell down like this.
Nami, seeing the situation before her eyes, couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised. She didn't expect that Zoro would actually be thinking of ending his own life at this time.
Of course, Arlong, seeing that the other party had made a choice at this time, although feeling somewhat dissatisfied, was even more suspicious of Nami's purpose in coming to his side now.
But this person had been dealt with by him, so he didn't say so much anymore and left with his people.
Nami, watching the other party leave like this, also felt somewhat uneasy, not knowing what the situation on the cliff was like now.
The current Zoro was stuck in the middle by a giant tree branch. He relied on his tenacious arm strength to hold on.
Although he had also received a bit of injuries now, this wasn't a big deal for him. But he also knew that after he went down now, he had to find Callum and them immediately.
He also had to tell them about this matter.
Callum's side had been searching for a long time, but still hadn't discovered anything.
As he walked, he planned to return to the ship and wait for them to return together, but he discovered a man with green hair by the side of the road.
That man had fallen powerlessly on the ground like this. He immediately recognized that the person who had fallen on the ground now was Zoro.
He also discovered that Zoro now had a large pool of mud on his body and also had some injuries. Looking at his appearance, it seemed that he had fallen down from a high place.
"Brother, wake up a bit."
Callum originally wanted to call people over to help himself at this time, but he discovered that the people by his side now were only Sanji.
The two of them then brought the person to the ship like this, using those medical equipment that they only had on the ship to treat the person.
Zoro opened his eyes after being unconscious for a period of time and saw Callum and Sanji who were before him now.
Upon noticing his teammates, he immediately jumped up, planning to explain those things that he had encountered just now to them.
This was truly a very urgent matter for them, and he didn't know whether they had heard of this matter.
Callum, looking that Zoro had such a nervous appearance now and also that he had suddenly fallen unconscious in that kind of place, there must have been some things that had happened in this.
So he opened his mouth and asked, "Did you receive some kind of attack just now? Why would you fall in that kind of place now?"
"I saw Nami just now. She is together with the leader of this island. She seems to have joined their group now, but I know that she isn't willing to do this.
I was caught by those people. They wanted to have Nami kill me, but Nami was unable to take action, so I escaped alone."
Zoro told them about all kinds of encounters that he had experienced over there. Although he said that Nami had done that kind of thing now,
But the two of them still didn't have much surprise until now. Furthermore, Callum and them had experienced so many matters together, and he knew what kind of person Nami was.
They had only been together for not a long period of time, and every one of them had their own difficulties and also had their own stories. Perhaps Nami also had her own things to do at this time, right?
"Then where is she now? We have to go over immediately now."
Callum felt that this matter couldn't be dragged on any longer. He had to go to that side immediately.
No matter what, he had to bring his teammates back to their side, and even if they had some matters to do, he, this captain, would also take action and help her settle all of this.
These people were truly too hateful. Just like what Zoro had said, he felt that Nami now seemed to have received a bit of threats from them.
Since that was the case, they naturally had to dispatch and go save their teammates.
"It has been such a long period of time now, and Usopp still hasn't returned. Where exactly did that kid go? Could it be that he has gotten lost?"
Sanji, looking that the night had slowly arrived, opened his mouth and asked somewhat uneasily. It had to be known that they had almost set off at the same time, and also their division of labor was very clear.
In theory, they should return to the ship at the same time.
If they still hadn't returned to the ship until now, then he would also be unable to help but think towards the bad side. It was likely that something had happened to the other party at this time.
Zoro, hearing Sanji say this, suddenly thought of a not very good place and opened his mouth worriedly.
"I will say a somewhat not good thing. Could it be that Usopp has been caught now?"
He knew that this place had very many mechanisms. That thing would definitely accidentally touch those mechanisms and be caught. It was likely that his ending would be like him.
But he was a coward. He wouldn't search for a way out himself like him if he encountered that kind of thing.
For this, they had to pay even more attention to this matter. It was likely that they also had to set off immediately now and investigate this matter.
Callum and Sanji, hearing Zoro say this, couldn't help but feel even more solemn. Callum then stood up at this time.
"Let's go. This matter can't be endured any longer. We have to save out a teammate no matter what."
He calmly gave an order and began to prepare some things for their attack.
On the other side, fire had then risen, and all of the clansmen were then surrounding the vicinity of the fire. There was also their sacrificial offering in the center.
That's right, and Usopp now had then been tied up helplessly on that side, and his mouth was stuffed full of strips of cloth.
He had also discovered Nami in the crowd long ago. He looked at the person before his eyes somewhat helplessly.
He was their teammate, so why was this person actually sitting inside here very calmly until now and didn't care about him, this person who was about to be sacrificed at all? Was this person still their teammate?
At this time, he really wanted to shout directly at the person before his eyes, but unfortunately, his mouth was full of strips of cloth. He couldn't utter a single word now.
He could only constantly pray, hoping that his teammates would discover that he had disappeared and then come save himself. Otherwise, he would really end up becoming their sacrificial offering.
He had been staying here for such a long period of time now and truly didn't know what kind of schemes they had now.
But he had understood that Nami now seemed to have betrayed them. Otherwise, this person wouldn't be so calm when encountering them.
"Now that we have made a decision, we will hand over this sacrificial offering to Nami to sacrifice, representing our greatness!"
Arlong suddenly stood up at this time and said a sentence to all of the clansmen, handing the silver dagger into Nami's hands.
Of course, Nami had originally just been quietly watching all of this to the side, but she didn't expect that she would suddenly become the protagonist of tonight.
She had originally thought that she wouldn't be able to obtain Arlong's trust now, but the other party still handed such an important matter to her at this time.
If the other party suspected that she was still an undercover agent at this time, this wouldn't be anything for her at all. It was only because she would be more relaxed this way.
But this person not only suspected that she was still an undercover agent until now but also repeatedly wanted her to prove that she was loyal enough to him.
It was also at this time that he handed this dagger into her hands, wanting her to personally end Usopp's life.
Of course, Usopp naturally heard them say this and couldn't help but feel somewhat scared. It had to be known that the person before his eyes was his teammate. How could she be so cruel?
Nami, hearing them say this, also felt somewhat conflicted. It was only because she hadn't expected that they would actually have her do these things that were worse than animals.
It had to be known that this was simply making things difficult for her. Of course, she also knew that since she had come to this point now, she had to listen to their orders. Otherwise, the scene now would only become even more chaotic.
So she picked up that silver dagger at this time and walked towards Usopp's direction. Of course, the other party, upon seeing her appearance, couldn't help but feel somewhat scared, not knowing what she was going to do to him now.
It had to be known that they were teammates!
