This manages to hurt the Fish-Man a bit with Luffy pleased that he was able to bite Arlong back. Arlong manages to hit Luffy again with one of his teeth but Luffy bites Arlong with his own teeth. Arlong continues to attack Luffy with the pirate captain dodging most of the hits. Arlong is more annoyed Luffy's antics and manages to hit Luffy with one of his teeth. However, it turns out Luffy did that to put Arlong's teeth into his own mouth. Luffy seems pleased by this and Arlong gets up saying it's no point in knocking out his teeth. Arlong swipes his teeth toward Luffy again but Luffy manages to score a kick on Arlong knocking out another set of teeth. Arlong still intends to hurt Luffy with his teeth and Luffy suddenly has an idea about something. Arlong is not pleased that Luffy used one of his men as a shield but Luffy blames Arlong for attacking him in the first place. However, it turns out that Luffy used one of the Fish-Men as a shield to defend against Arlong's attack.
Arlong swings his teeth at Luffy and seemly starts to stab him with them. Arlong pulls out two more sets of teeth intending to use them as weapons against Luffy. Arlong mentions that he, as a shark, can grow new sets of teeth one after another with the new pair getting stronger. As the villagers are celebrating Luffy's determination, Arlong suddenly grows a new set of teeth. Arlong wonders what Luffy can do and Luffy simply says he can kick Arlong's ass. Arlong mocks Luffy's claims once more wondering why his crew put up with him. Luffy then remarks that he's not a swordsman, he can't cook, or can't even lie (which upsets Usopp a bit), but Luffy says he will be dead by now if it wasn't for his friends. The villagers are surprised to see how Luffy broke Arlong's teeth. Luffy then punches Arlong right in the face breaking his teeth in the process. However, Arlong's powerful teeth break the sword into bits. Arlong tries to bite Luffy once more but Luffy uses one of the swords to block it.
Luffy tries to attack Arlong by swinging the swords at him but Arlong dodges the attacks easily knowing Luffy is not a swordsman. Luffy dodges out of the way and grabs a couple of swords. Arlong continues to boast about how Fish-Men are superior and tries to bite at Luffy. Luffy, annoyed by Arlong's words, says that he isn't all that great and Luffy punches a larger rock showing his own strength. Sanji agrees saying one bite from Arlong could be the end.
He comes up with the idea of using Arlong's teeth against him, while Arlong states his jaws are superior compared to humans.Īrlong, picking up a rock, scoffs at Luffy's goal to become the Pirate King, saying not even a human can crush rocks like a fish-man. Now that Luffy escaped from the bottom of the sea, he continues his fight with Arlong.
