Recap:

Zoro nods. "Yeah, and that dumb ass better be there." he grumbles. Luffy goes silent. He looks down at the dagger that Miss All Sunday left. It was Y/n's and he was going to see her to give it back for her. After all,

'She couldn't fight without it, right?'

Later that day, the wind suddenly stops again, as the large flag of the Going Merry goes back down. Nami looks at it in surprise. "The wind stopped again. And right before we reach Little Garden."

"Yosh! Let's fish! Fish!" Luffy chants. Sanji walks up to Usopp who has already started to fish. "Oi. Where's the bait?" Sanji asks, holding up the empty wooden bucket. There was a single worm left.

"Hm? Oh I ate it!" Luffy says proudly. "You ate it?! Those were bugs y'know!" Sanji exclaims. Luffy picks up the last one, popping it into his mouth. "Really? They taste good!" he says. Usopp's eyes widen.

"Don't eat stuff like that!" Sanji was just irritated. "Now what?! We can't fish now that you've eaten our bait!!"

"Really? How about we use this?" Luffy holds up a ball of brown.........straw? No one knew exactly what it was. Sanji is about to scold him more, when he sees a large shadow covering the sunlight. He looks up and sighs.

"Oh. Another Mist." The crew looks up and sees a large gray dolphin. "Whoa! So cool!" Luffy says in awe. "Yosh men! Unfurl the sails! Ride the wave so we can lose this guy!"

Vivi watches in shock. One minute ago, everyone on the ship was fooling around, doing their own thing, but now they were focused and trying to save their ship from being crushed. The dolphin makes a large splash as the ship successfully dodged it, and continues to proudly sail.

"Nami! What direction should the ship take?" Luffy asks. "Give me a second!" she says, looking down at the Log Pose. "Turn to port, full!" she declares. "Yosh!" Luffy says, as the ship shifts in the direction. As they continue to sail, the fog and clouds from earlier seem to disappear, as there is a large green island ahead. There is smoke coming off of it, and there were large mountain, almost completely covered in green.

"There's no mistake.......Our next destination is that island!" Nami says, pointing to the island. Everyone stares at awe in the island. "So this is our second island in the Grand Line....."

When they set foot in the island, the crew states in awe as it seemed to have a jungle sort of feel to it. There was even everywhere and many vines as well as exotic flowers. The sounds of birds chirping could be heard all around. "So this is Little Garden!" he says in awe.

Zoro stands near the mast, his arms crossed. "There isn't anything 'little' about it." he grumbles. "This place doesn't fit it's cute little name," Nami frowns. "It's kind of like a thick jungle," Mist says, swimming around the water surrounding the ship. "We have to be careful," Vivi warns. "I'm worried about what Miss All Sunday said, and Water Bearer...."

"O-O-Oi! Does that mean a monster is going to show up?!" Usopp stutters. "Who knows?" Sanji says. Usopp screams. "Let's go to our next destination without going ashore on this one!! Y/n's not here so we can't get away if there's a monster!!" he yells. Nami sighs, putting her hands on her hip.

"But the Log can't be stored so quickly." Sanji also stands next to Nami, his arms crossed over his chest. "We also need to stock up on food soon." he adds. "We didn't get any in the last town we were in."

"There's a river mouth up there." Zoro says, pointing ahead. "Really?!" Nami dashes over to look in the direction Zoro was pointing. For once, he was right.

"But it's dangerous to go ashore!" Usopp says. Nami points at the strange plants. "Just look at the plants. I've never seen them in any encyclopedia." there is a loud screeching sound, and Nami cries out, putting her hands over her ears. Sanji blushes, "How cute!" he says. "You mean me?" Usopp gives Sanji a wink, acting 'cute.'
