Spoilers are out
613 Mermaid Princess in the Hardshell Tower
[details=Spoiler]
Vander Decken IX has been waiting his letter to be answered for 10 years.
The reply isn’t coming… says Wadatsumi
Vander Decken IX, Captain of the Flying Pirates. Fishman of Japanese Bullhead Shark (Cat-shark)
Wadatsumi, fishman of Giant Tiger Puffer
Vander: Today, I’m going to send her an axe with a rose drawn on it again.
He throws the axe
But like a boomerang, it comes right back.
The mermaid princess is crying her eyes out. Her name is Princess Shirahoshi
Luffy is panicked, he doesn’t know how to handle it. The aforementioned axe comes flying there
Luffy catches the axe so it doesn’t hit the princess
Neptune’s servant comes into the room, asking if the princess is ok
The princess hides Luffy
servant: About Straw Hat Luffy… we have trouble
Luffy and co are to be locked up under the suspicion of kidnapping the mermaids
Zoro is already locked up, Nami, Brook, and Usopp are about to be caught as well
Luffy is the only one they can’t find. He asks her highness to be careful, and leaves the room
Luffy and the princess talk
Luffy asks her who threw the axe
The princess says it’s a gentleman named Vander Decken, who was afflicted by a devil’s curse called Mato-mato (Target-Target)
Apparently he has set myself as a target, and can aim for my life from anywhere and anytime… due to that it’s too dangerous to go outside, and I haven’t stepped a foot out of the tower (figure of speech)
Luffy chat with her while eating. The princess asks questions, or answers questions
Luffy would mess with her, and make her cry again
Luffy says he doesn’t like her (for being a crybaby, most likely) making her cry even more
Luffy then asks her if there’s anywhere she wants to go
Princess answers there’s many places she’d like to go
Luffy: Then let’s get out of here, let’s take a walk outside! If something comes your way, I’ll blow them all away
Usopp, Brook, and Nami are surrounded
As they’re fighting, Zoro shows up saying he heard festival songs, so he came out.
(His roundabout way of saying I hear party going down, let me in on the fight I guess)
Meanwhile Hodi and Vander Decken shake hands, united in a common cause with merit to both of them.
To take the head of Neptune!
End
Vander is throwing axes at the mermaid as a sign of his affection
Neptune’s daughter is mistaking that as killing intent (well who the hell wouldn’t lol)
Parts in () are my own notes to decipher, not ohana’s own[/details]
In short
