The Straw Hats' first major test in the New World centers on protecting the giant Mermaid Princess, Shirahoshi, who finds herself the target of two dangerous suitors. While the obsessive Vander Decken IX continues his relentless pursuit, the more formidable threat comes from Hody Jones, a fanatical great white shark fishman whose brutal ideology mirrors that of their old foe, Arlong. As Franky unleashes his new cyborg arsenal and Luffy demonstrates his mastery of Haki, the crew's overwhelming defense of the princess makes it clear why some might wish to be in her protected position.
