After escaping from the Marines, the Straw Hats realize that they are in the Calm Belt, where they find large sea kings. The Straw Hats agree to return her back to Warship Island, and they are soon attacked by Branch 8. Later that night, the crew reassures Apis that they are "good" pirates. They eventually find out that she has escaped from Marine Branch 8 and is running from Commodore Nelson. Apis wakes up later in the afternoon shocked to hear she was taken in by pirates, causing her to panic in fear. They only find a very confused and shocked Apis, who Luffy accidentally knocks Zoro off the boat to get. Usopp and Sanji mistake this for a school of fish and ask Luffy to catch them. Usopp spots the raft Apis is on surrounded by seagulls. The next morning, Luffy grows impatient of getting to the Grand Line with Nami reassuring him they will reach it within a few days. The captain of the 8th Branch, Nelson Royale, a very husky man who cannot move without support, is angered by the news and summons forth his mercenary, Eric the Whirlwind, to go after the girl, who seems to have the key to the elixir of eternal youth. She manages to escape by jumping off the mast and onto a small wooden boat while chanting to herself for Ryuji to protect her.
As she traps herself on the mast of the ship, she accidentally opens the sail, causing the wind to tip over the ship. She manages to slip past her guard only to be chased across the deck. A fleet of Marine ships from Branch 8 goes through a rainstorm and a mysterious girl, Apis, plans her escape from the crew members of the ship.
