It was rewarding to teach one of these youngsters about fishing. She swore she could see the interest shining in his eyes as he studied the water, her own gaze drifting from the boy to the water and back again as he listened to her explanations. He seemed intensely focused, leaning forward toward the surface of the water, watching the larger fish as it swam through the kelp.

He seemed a little confounded by her explanation. Reflecting on her words, she recognized she could've made things a little easier for a boy his age to understand. "Well. Fish are good at staying together, but sometimes get a little mixed up when you break up their schools. Sometimes you can just kinda... swim up on them and snatch one up. It's not always that easy, but, you never know until you try! Here, watch me." As if to demonstrate, Nami moved forward all at once, aiming to dive gracefully into the water.

As expected, the fish sensed her movement before she was up on them, beginning to scatter. Most of them, at least. Kicking forward through the water with her eyes open, she managed to snatch one of the tiny fish up, surfacing with it clasped between her jaws. Paddling to the surface, she tossed the fish to the shore. "You gotta practice swimming before you get too ambitious, though! Have your parents taught you how to swim yet?" Surely Jiro knew a little, being so close to the ocean and all, but she was curious just how much he knew.
