how ez it was for hatchan to get into the new world and how much faster he got there than the SH?
He almost certainly had some means of heading directly to his destination, whether with an Eternal Pose or some Fishman thing.
But even so, it's not difficult to overtake the Straw Hats, because they have a serious tendency to stop places and spend a few weeks overthrowing a corrupt regime. Someone who simply spent the bare minimum amount of time at each island could easily get past them, as long as they were capable of getting past the general obstacles of the Grand Line.
You're forgetting about the time that the Straw Hats always inevitably spend recuperating. There's typically a period at the end of an arc during which time is skipped ahead and everyone's injuries heal and the ship is repaired and so on. It's true that there was only a day's length between the Straw Hats landing on Thriller Bark and them defeating Moria, but it was then around another four days before they left again. And that was a short arc.Actually, most of the arcs don't take very long at all... Alabastra was the only one that was way out of the way.
Skypeia was no more than a few days.
Water 7 was like... two days? And then another for Enies Lobby, maybe?
Thriller Bark wasn't even one full day.
You have to assume that there's lots of screwing around not depicted in the manga, the SH's detours are pretty minor.
well his hometown is on The Grad Line... on The new World...
It's possible he's used to the grand line... hell he's a Fishmen...
well, just because Zoro beat him does necessarily mean he's weak.
That and the Strawhats spend a large amount of time getting places and helping random people while the fishmen probably have ways to get straight to where they need to go using sea kings or whatnot.

Actually when i think about it, in the cover-story Hacchi had he had already meet that mermaid chick and the fish gang, so doesn't that mean he was already nearby the mermaid island?Wasn't Hacchi's story in the covers after Arlong was defeated ??
I don't remember the story too well, there might be hints as to how he got there ahead of the Strawhats.
Like Arcanis pointed out, Eternal pose might be the answer![]()
Er, he just went past Calm belt because he's a merman.
Don't compare Mohmoo to the giant ass kings in the belt dude.Mohmoo was obedient why?
Camie's just weak, can't compare her to Hachi.
