 * Komota and Sake walk into the large building and into an office like room. Thunnus is sitting at a desk kicking back while a thin and short Cuttle fish fishman is talking to him frantically.*

Thunnus: Cutler, you gotta relax. Benthic and his crew aren't gonna attack anytime soon. Hell, one of our spies said Benthic was jailed on account of letting the human Sake brought to the hospital get away.

Cutler: But sir, there are still sitings of Nellie's soldiers swimming around in the nearby waters. I still say we... Oh, its Sake and the human.

Komota: And my name is Komota in case you need to know.

Thunnus: *Stands up* Sake! How're you doing brother?

Sake: I'm fine Thunnus, but my new friend Komota wants to talk to you about the upcoming attack.

Komota: Indeed, now as you may know my friend Tomas has already been captured by Benthic and is apparently being held captive in this New Arlong Park, as Sake calls it. I am here to offer my help as a warrior in the attempt to rescue my friend and captain. If you would accept my help, I would be honored.

Thunnus: Well you seem like a strong fellow, you can help. We need all the help we need against those guys.

Cutler: And if Nellie's soldier see themselves being defeated by a human, that would strongly lower their morale.

Sake: Or at least piss them off enough so they become more of a challenge.


 * Thunnus laughs a little.*

Thunnus: It's settled then. Komota, welcome to the revolution.

Komota: Thank you, now when is this big fight?

Thunnus: Well I'm bored, so Cutler, tell all soldiers to arm themselves, we attack this afternoon!

Cutler: Yes, sir. *Cutler runs out of the room towards the barracks.*

Sake: Well Komota let's go!

Komota: Already on it!


 * Sake and Komota both run out of the room. Thunnus grabs his two sheathed scimitars and holsters them on his back. He stops and thinks to himself*

Thunnus: (That can't be Metal Mop Arnold, can it? I thought he died with the Pirate King's crew during the Sargasso-Mask incident. Maybe he survived. They thought every pirate from both crews died that day, but not even a year ago they found and arrested Gordon Squash living on an isolated island. Where was he jailed again?)


 * A Catfish fishman walks into the office.*

Catfish fishman: Thunnus where are you? The troops are leaving and Sake is wondering where you are.

Thunnus: Yes, I'm here. Sorry I got lost in thought.

Catfish fishman: Alright, let's go then.


 * Thunnus nods and runs out of the room with the catfish fishman*


 * Meanwhile, Tomas is dodging Ocho's punches in his cell. The two fishmen that captured Tomas are watching and cheering*

Sardine Fishman: Yeah, kick his ass!

Tomas: If I could I'd throw a sea shell at you damnit!

Swordfish fishman: But you can't 'cus of the Kairoseki handcuffs!


 * Both fishman laugh while Tomas charges at them*

Tomas: Don't talk to me like that you bastards!

Ocho: Perfect!


 * Ocho grabs Tomas' legs and throws him against the wall. Tomas falls to the ground with a thud*

Tomas: Ow damnit!

Ocho: Now I'm gonna kill you!


 * Suddenly, a large Thresher Shark fishman opens up the cell holding a key*

Thresher Shark fishman: All of you except the human get out! The revolutionaries are attacking and Madame said for all of you to get your weapons and fight!

Benthic/Ocho/The Other Fishmen: What?!


 * Tomas jumps up and tackles the Thresher Shark fishman, then grabs the key and takes off his handcuffs*

Tomas: Well it's not in my nature to run away from a fight, but I'm out! *runs away*

Ocho: God damnit! Get back here!


 * Ocho chases after him while Benthic and the other two fishmen step out of the cell*

Benthic: You heard the guy! To war!

Sardine fishman: Do we have to?


 * Benthic looks at the Sardine fishman in anger then grabs a saber from the Thresher Shark fishman and decapitates the Sardine fishman*

Swordfish fishman: Deen!

Benthic: Now unless you wanna end up like your friend, your coming with me!

Swordfish fishman: Yes, Benthic.


 * Benthic and the Swordfish fishman run away from the jail towards a large battle that has already started!*

THE WAR HAS BEGUN!
