It's because the official makes it seem like she's justifying to Ulti about Luffy's desire while in the unofficial, she's declaring in defiance to Ulti that Luffy will become the Pirate King.
The problem is that it is a weak answer to Ulti request. It's cool Luffy won't give up until he reach his goal but not giving up does not equate to succeeding. It's just a fact. Luffy doesn't give up. Wiile the original text is a big fuck you to Ulti. An absolute affirmation that Luffy will be the pirate king.
In the unofficial translation she proclaims Luffy will defintely become PK. Whilst in the official, it makes it seem like Nami is talking about his nature to never give up. So in the official she never even states he will become PK....only he will never stop till he becomes. Which is talking more about Luffy's personality....

It's a shame cause in the japanese text you can feel the almost religious level of faith and respect Nami has in Luffy his dream. Viz version feels so weak and it's a waste because it's the official english translation that will be remembered years later. Especially if it is supposed to be Nami big "Luffy will become the pirate king" declaration of the series.

Well, this scene will be 100% better in the anime, without the offscreen and also proper translation and people will remember that, the official translation has some issues and it showed again in this chapter...
