Arlong could also see that his hiding technique could not get him anywhere but there was nothing he could do. All his friends were down and he wanted nothing but revenge.

His teeth were clattering against each other in sheer anger. But he also knew that this was his best hope. Water was his only strength and this new pirate group that had just shown up was in a league of their own. He was almost sure that these people had eaten Devil Fruits. Otherwise under no circumstances could this curly eyebrowed person and that famous Zoro could emit fire in their attacks.

And that Straw Hat guy was more outrageous. A person spitting fire from his mouth!! He had never seen such a thing before but there were always weird Devil Fruits out there and who knows what Devil Fruit this person had eaten.

Though he could inherently feel that his location had been detected by something, he didn't care. But Arlong made a mistake.

Ken didn't care about the magic of Nami as he was ready to fly in and bring this piece of shit out. But it was Usopp who stopped Ken.

"I can bring him out."

"What?"

"With your slingshot? Are you sure?"

"Hey c'mon I have another power now, did you forget?"

"You have control over your power?" Luffy and others were surprised by this. They didn't have much hope for him anyways.

"Oi... Have some faith in me alright."

"Fine fine... You will get one chance." Ken said. It was not because he looked down on Usopp or something. He just didn't want Arlong to run away and then come back with more ferocity. He would rather bring this stupid guy down and be done with it.

And Usopp didn't disappoint.

He had been wearing the small cross on his hand like some person from Christ and extended his hand straight. Slowly a white straight light started emerging from his hand that soon took the form of a bow.

Ken was a little surprised. Quincies normally needed a weapon to control the spiritual particles and use that in any form they liked, depending upon their powers. At least Ishida used to do so during his fight against Mayuri.

But here Usopp made a bow out of thin air. No, he used the cross as the weapon and made it into a bow. Though it wasn't his full spiritual weapon as of yet, this was a great progress. Unlocking the full spirit weapon would take some time.

Others who were watching this, were surprised that Usopp could do such a thing. They had seen how that Ebern guy fought and it looked nothing like that. Only Ken knew what Usopp was doing and he had a smile on his face seeing that.

Usopp too was progressing fast.

As the bow took shape, an arrow made of the same light particles was formed. The arrow didn't look exactly like a typical one. The arrow could be labeled as a huge log which had sharp splinters pointing out of it.

Only in this case the 'log' was made of white spiritual particles. Usopp stretched the arrow on the 'string' and pointed it at Arlong who didn't seem to have moved from his position and took a deep breath.

This was his first time using it on a real person. Secretly, he had been trying to do this for sometime and he had been finally successful. Though he had only got one day to practice, he hoped that this move of his was good enough.

Ken could feel what Usopp was doing. His control over the power wasn't good enough. Maybe 60% at best, but the lethality of the arrow couldn't be denied. Even he himself might choose to dodge this ugly arrow.

After aiming it correctly, Usopp released that arrow. The speed of the arrow was mind blowing. It did even care of the viscosity of the water or air as it tore through everything and at extreme high speed it went right at Arlong.

Arlong hadn't expected a white light to appear in front of him. He was stunned on the spot. At that time all he could remember was the face of Kizaru. Kizaru who had once played with him and almost killed him.

Those memories of the past came back to him at that instant. He was rooted at the spot. He couldn't move. That small bit of hesitation proved fatal for Arlong.

The spiritual particle arrow went right through his shoulder just inches away from his heart. Unlike kicks and punches, Arlong had a massive hole when the arrow passed by. He vomited out blood almost instantly and got unconscious a second

Few moments later, the water was filled with red color and the body of Arlong floated above. Hachi, who was seeing this from the side, almost jumped on his feet.

He had never seen such weird attacks ever before. Who the hell are these people? Where did they come from?

"Oi Usopp. This fight was supposed to be mine. You took my spot."

"Uh... Sorry sorry. I didn't expect this baka to take the hit. I thought he would dodge."

This was true, though the arrow was fast, the distance was considerable and the water would definitely lower the speed. Arlong should have been able to dodge but a moment of hesitation and his past memories haunted him.

This was his downfall and thus with that attack, Arlong, who was considered as one of the most vicious pirates was taken down.

By this time, many people from the village had arrived. Some people had seen a huge fire blast coming out of the Arlong Park and many were secretly rejoiced thinking the fire might just kill some Fishmen of the Arlong Pirates. That was all they hoped for.

Nojiko, who was in the village, came to see what had happened. But when they saw the whole platoon of fishmen burnt out they thought that this was a dream. Nami finally turned around and looked at her beloved friends.

"Everyone, Arlong Pirates are no more. We are free!!"

There was complete silence as many found it hard to believe that the most vicious pirate that had haunted their village was no more.
