Chapter 25: Kotarou is defeated ...
We arrived at Arlong Park, 5 of us, we didn't pay attention to the people in front of the gate. Luffy was the first to act, punching the door of Arlong Park.
"Boomm." The explosion sounded throughout the place, drawing the attention of all the fishmen.
"What is it." Arlong's eyes were a little red, showing that he was angry at what was happening.
"Which one of you is Arlong?." Luffy asked.
"Arlong ..... Arlong, that's my name." Arlong replied without any fear in his voice.
"My name is Monkey D. Luffy." Luffy and I were side by side, when two henchmen appeared I just disappeared and was already walking towards Arlong, Luffy already knocked them out. Luffy farther back, I was a little ahead, I raised my arm and felt a wind beside me, which I assumed was Luffy's arm. We then hit Arlong in the face at the same time.
"You made my Nami / Navigator cry." Luffy and I shout at the same time.
"Er ... You are the sailor and the pirate hunter, Roronoa Zoro .... You deceived me ..." That was Hatchan. Well, like I said, Hatchan is a nice guy, but we are on two different sides.
"You .... You are the guy seduced by Nami." An idiot who said that, was crushed on the wall.
"Get them." It seems that what I did was the spark for the fire, since the fishmen attacked me and Luffy at the same time. Soon they cried out in pain, Sanji had defeated them.
"You ..... You fools, hurting my brothers? ..." Arlong was irritated after seeing how we defeated his brothers.
"Calm down Arlong, if you get out of control now Arlong Park will be destroyed." The 3 strongest fishmen held Arlong.
"Arlong, let us take care of these guys." Who said that was Hatchan who used his mouth as an instrument and started calling something. A sea monster soon appeared, but it appeared to be hurt and was afraid of Luffy and Sanji. Arlong intimidated the King of the Sea and made him attack Luffy, who used his new technique, throwing the King of the Sea away and knocking out the weaker Men. But he was as stupid as ever and stuck in the concrete. Impossible for him to face his opponents.
"I thought of a cool game." Arlong said out loud, it seemed to calm the guy's nerves.
"Let's see who's stronger, Fish men or humans." Arlong said.
"Um, I'm going against Roronoa Zoro, he deceived me, said he was a guest." Hatchan walked towards Zoro.
"So I'm going to get the big one." Sanji walked towards Kuroobi.
Before I can say I'm going against Chew, Usopp released Luffy who hit Chew, and then Chew started chasing Usopp.
"Ehto .... Only me left then?. Who am I going to face?." I asked no one in particular.
"You are not needed, you can die." Arlong appeared at my side ready to attack me, I will not lie that I got scared, but with my speed, I dodged his attack. Appears away from Arlong.
"Hey Hey, is attacking by surprise something you fishmen do?" It was sounding cold, I didn't expect to have to face Arlong.
"Hoho, did you dodge that? ... It looks like the five of you, are more than the other humans." Arlong comments, he may look good, but I realized that he was very angry.
"And you are just another Arlong fish man. If you were something else, you would be somewhere else, not East Blue, which is the weakest of the 4 blue." What I said seemed to hit Arlong's nerve.
"Shut up." Arlong's eyes went white and he started attacking me with his jaws. I use my maximum speed to dodge their attacks and throw knives at the same time. But Arlong's skin was so thick that the knives thrown with all my might, simply scraped against it, and didn't even draw blood from it.
That monster, Damn. My attacks are not strong enough to hurt him, all I have is my speed, once I get tired, I'm dead.
"Hey Arlong, I'm your opponent, because you're up against Kotarou." I hear Luffy's shout, he seemed to be trying to get his foot off the concrete, but he couldn't.
"You only know how to escape, little human?. Your inferior, humans are inferior to us, fish men." Arlong ignored him completely, I would have to deal with this battle alone. When Arlong missed another attack, and knowing that my knives did not damage from a distance, I approached him to try to attack him at close range, I knew the danger, but I still had to take a chance ...
My attack connected, but it was even worse than I imagined, the knife did not enter his flesh, at least it drew blood from it. Now I see the difference between a named weapon and a garbage like my knives ...
Shit, here comes another bite from Arlong ... The ground around Arlorg Park was already completely screwed. But this is good, the concrete around Luffy was breaking, soon he would be free.
The problem is that the excessive use of my speed started to tire me out. My speed was getting slower with time. It was already obvious that Arlong's attack would hit me sometime ... I tried to prologue as much as possible and break the ground that Luffy was trapped ...
"What was human, is it already at its limit?." Arlong asked, with a dismissive tone.
"Shut up, you stupid codfish." This seemed to irritate Arlong a lot, as the attacks I was able to deflect started to get more ferocious and my speed slower. Sometimes Arlong attacked with bites and sometimes with his claws.
At least I can say that I made this shitty Arlong bleed a lot, even though it was only superficial wounds. My Akuma no Mi continually registered Arlong's little karate skills, which didn't seem to be much. Perhaps because he was so pissed off, his attacks were more ferocious than having some kind of fighting style. It complicated me a lot more than it seemed.
One last attack and Luffy could get out. The ground was already completely cracked, a single attack by Arlong would be enough to break the ground that Luffy was trapped in.
I started fighting closer and closer to Luffy, when we got close enough. Arlong fired a big attack on me. He could easily dodge that attack. It was what I expected, but a fish man was holding my leg ....
Fuck, am I going to die? ... I couldn't think of that .... No ... I'm not going to die today.
I bent down as far as I could with two knives, one in each of my hands. One of the knives, stabbed the arm that held my arm. This fishman's skin was not as hard as Arlong's, so it was possible.
The second knife I had in hand, along with my speed, went straight to Arlong's outstretched hilt, trying to divert the Punch from me to the Floor.
It was not as successful as I thought, but it was a success, the ground around it broke, releasing Luffy ... Have I? ... I was sent flying into the water ... The knife I had in my hand? Broken when it came into contact with Arlong's fist.
A large amount of blood was expelled from my mouth and that was when it fell into the water, losing for all my strength. I tried to keep as much air in my lung as possible ... But I'm not Luffy, I could end up dying ...
"KOTAROU." Before I fell deeper into the sea, I could hear, even if vaguely, Luffy's voice shouting my name.
I think at least one of my arms is broken, and a few columns of toast ....
I lost miserably .... I am very weak ... My strength and defense cannot compare to Zoro or Sanji ... I have a lot to improve if I want to be one of the monster trio ....
I swear I will get better .... I swear ..... I don't want to lose like now ..... If I survive, I will get stronger .... This I promise ....
I don't know if I was crying, because I was in the water ... My breath was slowly ending ... This is desperate ... I soon felt my conscience disappear.
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
Tennouji_Kotarou
Tennouji_Kotarou Hello people. Author here. Sincerely ... I don't know how this story arc is going ... It is so meh ... I hope it is readable.
It was clear that Kotarou can't stand someone like Arlong yet. But it will get stronger.
There was not much to do in this arc. Fights are necessary for each of the straw hats. Kotarou's is yet to arrive. I haven't thought about it yet, but it will come.
Sorry if you don't like to see a Mc get defeated ...
