➽ Volume 9 delves deep into Nami's background story! It definitely broke my heart to see her despair and how she's been trying to save her village for 8 years while working for the man who killed her mother. There's a big emphasis on found family, as Belle-Mere loved Nojiko and Nami so much and never cared that they weren't her biological children. They might have been barely scraping by, but there was so much love between them. That makes their fate all the more heartbreaking, as Arlong of course shows up and ruins everything 💔 I like that Luffy doesn't even care about Nami's story, he believes that she's his friend and of course shows up to help her in the end!
