Recap:

'This is great! A lost island, not on any map or sea chart, a Millennial Dragon, this is the best!' you thought giddily.

"Our destination: LOST ISLAND!!" Luffy shouts, pumping his fist in the air before the Going Merry continues their journey for Lost Island.

It was a peaceful day, considering all that had happened with the Navy yesterday. Luffy was with Grandpa Ryu on the raft, while Zoro, Nami and Usopp were trying to figure out how to get to Lost Island. Mist was talking with Grandpa Ryu, to keep him company. "Hey! Grandpa Ryu! Which way do we go?!" Usopp asks, despite how crazy it sounds in the first place.

There were a group of flying fish surrounding the raft. When Grandpa Ryu looked at them, he would see a flash of how he used to be able to fly, with the rest of the dragons he knew. It made him sad, as his eyes dimmed a little. Mist felt bad. "Don't worry. Our crew will help. You said it yourself; Luffy seems like a good person."

Grandpa Ryu growls softly, closing his eyes. Luffy looks at him, then looks back up at Nami, Zoro and Usopp. "I think he fell asleep again." "Sorry for the wait everyone!" The crew turns to see you and Apis running to them. You are carrying a large pot, with pink mitts on your hand. Apis is next to you. The three sweat drop, remembering her breakfast that she made last time. "Did Apis cook again?!" Zoro asks.

Usopp sighs, shuddering at the memory. "No one was waiting for her cooking." Sanji is behind the two of you, with a large basket and rope in hand. "Oh Sanji! Thank goodness! So you made today's mea-" Apis has a pouty face. When she walks by Usopp she steps on his foot, hard. Usopp cries out in pain, holding his foot while Apis walks by him, head high. You giggle. 'Apis is so cute!' you thought.

You walk next to her, until you both are by the railing. "Grandpa Ryu! Dig in!" You hold up the pot for to show it off. Luffy looks up at the two of you. "Oh! Food!" Luffy stretches his arms, grabbing the pot's handle. Your eyes widen as you try to grab the pot back. "Wait a minute Luffy!"

But it's too late; the pot's handle burns Luffy's hand, causing him to drop it. "OW! HOT!!" What you don't expect is for the pot of hot food to land on Grandpa Ryu's head. He wakes up from his nap, and groans in pain. Apis panics, sliding down the rope to where he is. You jump off the railing onto the raft. "Grandpa Ryu!" Apis cries, now at the dragon's side.

When you both are down there, you start cleaning off the food from his head. Meanwhile, Mist is trying to pull Luffy down into the sea by biting down on his red vest. "You dummy! Couldn't you see it was hot?! Y/n told you to wait!" Luffy was holding onto the mast for dear life. "GYAH!! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! But, I can't swim!! Don't drag me down!!!"

"TOO BAD!!"

"Y/NNNN!!!!! HELP MEEE!!!"

"Mist, knock it off." you mutter, focusing on using a small towel to wipe off the food from Grandpa Ryu. Mist stops for a moment, looking at Luffy before proceed in pulling him. "Y/N!!" Luffy screams again.

Sanji sighs in irritation seeing the whole pot practically spilled. "Sheesh. I made all of that food and it goes to waste!" Usopp nods, looking at the large mess on the raft. "Can't you just make some more then?" Sanji has a tick mark on his forehead. "The point is we shouldn't waste food!"

You finally get Mist to stop. You told Luffy to pick up the pot, but to use his sandals as mitts. "Ooh! This is better! Thanks Y/n!" You roll your eyes and can't help but crack a small smile. "You're welcome!" Apis looks out at the sea, with a confused face. Nami follows her gaze. "What's wrong?"

"Lost Island....The Dragon's Nest...it's east of Warship Island...." Luffy's face lights up, and yours does too. "So that's where Lost Island is?!" Both of you say in unison. Apis nods, hugging the senile dragon. "Grandpa Ryu said he just remembered!"
