Recap:

"T-this is bad! Really bad!" Nami exclaims, as she holds tightly onto an old brown book she has. Usopp starts to sweat nervously, awaiting for the bad news. "What?! What is it?!" he asks.

Nami gasped as there was a large shadow looming over the Merry. She looks up slowly, in horror as there was a large figure with glowing red eyes. Usopp sees the figure too, and they both scream. Nami dropped the book, as her body was stiff.

The book read;

"To the residents, the island is as if a 'little garden'. Little Garden. That is what I will call this place. Louise Arnote, explorer"

Nami and Usopp were crying tears in fear as the shadow was stepping closer and closer to the Merry. The shadow of the figure was so large, they watched in horror as the large trees fell to the ground like sticks.

There is a deep chuckling from the figure, as it had glowing red eyes. Nami and Usopp scream as they hug each other practically crying waterfalls from their eyes.

The figure was a large giant, wearing a viking helmet and a blonde beard. He had a dark blue cape on, as he let out a loud bellowing laugh that blew Nami and Usopp's hair back. Literally.

"So..." the large giant begins. "What's the answer?" he says, getting close to the very small Nami and Usopp. Through her tears, Nami manages to speak up. "W-what was that? Could you repeat the question?"

The giant leans in closer, looking somewhat irritated. "I asked if you had any alcohol." he says. Usopp gulps and nods furiously. Nami turns to go get it.
"W-we have a l-little.." she stutters, tears streaming down her cheeks as her body was paralyzed in fear.

The giant smiles. "So you've got some?" Nami gulps. "I-It's not for d-drinking. It's for cooking and disinfection." Usopp backs away. "B-but we'll give it all to you if you'd like!" Nami quickly adds. The giant suddenly cries out, scaring the crap out of Nami and Usopp.

The giant turns around and sees a dinosaur biting his behind. "Dino...." Usopp beings.

"Dinosaur.." Nami finishes as the two stare in shock. The giant pulls an ax off of his belt, slicing of the dinosaur head. Nami and Usopp scream in fear, seeing how easily he took it off. "I'm Broggy, Elbaf's strongest warrior!" he yells proudly as he laughs.

He shows off the dinosaur head to the frightened Nami and Usopp. "Now I've got meat too. I'll treat you, my guests." he says. Nami and Usopp "pass out" causing Broggy to sweat drop. "Oi, oi." he pokes Usopp's chest.

Usopp is laying flat on his back with his eyes wide open to give the impression he is "dead". Nami is curled up on her side with her eyes closed. "P-Pretend we're dead....No matter what happens.." Usopp whispers in a panic. "D-Doesn't pretending to be dead only work on bears?!" Nami whispers back not daring to open her eyes.

Broggy stands there confused, unsure what to do now.

~~Meanwhile~~

"Whoa! What a great view!" Luffy says, looking around. "I wanna have lunch here."

"This isn't time for idle chit-chat!" Vivi argues as Karoo yells in protest as well. Luffy continues to look around of course. "Oh! There really are volcanoes!" he says looking at the large steaming mountains. "And there's a mountain with huge holes in it as well!"

"Even if it's well behaved you have to come down!" Vivi yells. "This guy's no trouble!" Luffy grins. "Even so! Look at poor Y/n!" she argues.

You of course, were hanging onto Luffy's waist as you sat on the dino head, shaking like a leaf. Tears were in your eyes as you had buried your face in Luffy's chest. "Can we g-get off n-now? Please Luffy...." you say shaking.

Luffy frowns. He looks down at your shaking figure, surprisingly feeling bad for you. He nods. "Alright Y/n. Just a second." he stretches down to look the dinosaur in the eye. "Oi, can you take us over there?" he asks pointing to the landscape with lots of holes.

The dinosaur ignores the rubber captain, while you were still clinging to him. "Oi!" the dinosaur shifts to reach more leaves in front of him. Luffy pouts. "This way!" he tries turning the dinosaurs neck to the left causing it to cry out in pain. Karoo and Vivi look at him with their eyes white in shock.

"WHO'D DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?!" Vivi yells. The dinosaur continues to cry, as there is a loud rumbling sound. Y/n sits next to Luffy.. parity much anchoring herself to her spot. "You idiot! What if we fell?!" you screech. "Oh.....sorry..." Luffy pats the dinosaur's head gently.

Vivi and Karoo screech seeing a large dinosaur appear next to them, followed by a whole herd of them, with longer necks than the one you and Luffy were on. "Luffy-san!" Vivi cries. "It's dangerous so come down now!" Luffy looks up at the large dinosaurs. "And they're even taller so I'll have a much better view!" he says.

Your ears perk up hearing this. "NO LUFFY!! YOU SAID YOU'D TAKE ME DOWN!!"

Luffy ignores your protest (forgetting what he said before) as he throws you over his shoulder despite your kicking and thrashing. Then using his other free arm he grabs onto the taller dinosaurs' head and now the two of you stood on top of it. "Just as I thought! I can see the holes better!" You on the other hand were lucky enough to be facing straight down, making you fell sick and dizzy.

The other dinosaurs all gathered as one of them bared their teeth to try and bite Luffy. "AAAAAAAHHHHHH PUT ME DOWN PUT ME DOWN PUT ME DOWN PUT ME DOWN!!!" you scream.

Luffy turns around and jumps, narrowly missing it's jaws. The other dinosaurs soon try to attack again, as Luffy continues to hop around. You scream every time he jumps too high.

Eventually he slides down one of the large dinosaur's necks, "Whoo! Vivi this is fun! You should come and try it!" Luffy yells. Suddenly the two of you are launched into the air again, as Luffy grabs onto the dinosaur that was the tallest, covered in scars and looked to be the meanest.

"NOOO!!!" You yell as you hop out of Luffy's grasp, only for him to grab you again. "Phew that was close N/n!" You let out a sigh of relief and nod, almost forgetting how high you were on a eighty story dinosaur.

"Yes now put me-" You couldn't even finish your sentence as Luffy and you were propelled into the air. You scream as the two of you fall into the dinosaurs mouth. Vivi and Karoo screech. "THEY'VE BEEN EATEN!!!"

Before Vivi and Karoo could begin to brainstorm a plan to save you two, a large ax is swung at the large animal's neck, as the top half with the head flew off. Vivi and Karoo gasp in surprise, shock and, fear?!

You and Luffy fall out of the part that was cut, as Luffy looks out in surprise, while you grip onto his red vest for dear life. You yelp as you and Luffy fall into a large....... hand?! You look up and see that it's a giant?! He had a black beard with a helmet, along with a sword in his right hand a shield in his left, the hand he was holding you and Luffy in.

"Whoa!!!!" Luffy gaped at the large giant. Vivi was frozen in shock. Just what was with this island?! The giant let out a loud bellowing laugh, as he looked at Luffy, who was holding you in his arms bridal style.

"I was watching. What a cute pair of lively humans, grappling with longnecks in this jungle." he says. "You're the first guests in a long time."

Luffy, of course, didn't pay attention to a word he said. "You're huge! Are you a human?" Luffy asks. The giant just grins. "You're asking if I'm human?" the giant lets out another laugh, before lifting his sword so the back of the blade rests on his back. "I'm Dorry, Elbaf's strongest warrior!" he says proudly.

Karoo is on his side, squeaking hoarsely in shock. Vivi collapses on her knees as she looks at the giant, amazed. "G...Giant!" she stutters. Slowly, you climb out of Luffy's grasp.

You weren't too afraid of him to be honest (again momentarily forgetting how high you are). Luffy grins. "I'm Luffy. I'm a pirate." he says proudly.

"A pirate?! Good for you!" Dorry says before laughing again. "And who might you be?" he asks eyeing you. "I'm Y/n. You can call me N/n if you like." you say bowing. The giant shakes his head. "Don't worry, I won't steal your boyfriend's nickname." The two of you tilt your head in confusion.

"Boyfriend?" you repeat in unison.

Boyfriend

Boyfriend

Boyfriend.....

The word echoed in your head until you realized what he was saying. Luffy. Boyfriend. Your face instantly turned crimson red, as steam came out of your ears. You look down and just realized; Luffy was holding your hand!! You squeak in embarrassment as you pull your hand out of his grasp, looking somewhere, anywhere but the two males.

"Oh? A shy one is she?" Dorry asks Luffy. Luffy hums. "I guess....What did you mean by bo-"

"That's enough Luffy!" you quickly interrupt, flailing your arms around, your face pretty much beet red. "W-Why don't you introduce Vivi?!" you suggest. Luffy nods, forgetting completely about what just happened. "Oh yeah!" he points to Vivi who was shaking the unconscious Karoo around. "The ones over there are Vivi and Karoo. Nice to meet you!"

"I'll invite you guys to my home!" he says.

Luffy and Dorry laughed, as you and Luffy sat on a large piece of meat, talking with the giant. Vivi and Karoo were of course very uncomfortable being here, but did it matter that much to Luffy?

No.

"This is yummy old giant guy!" Luffy says as he sighs with relief from the juicy meat. Dorry held the small pirate lunch that Sanji had prepared for Luffy, as he sampled it. "Your pirate lunch is delicious as well, but is just a little too small for me."

"Of course it's good!" you giggle as you bite off a little piece of meat. "Our chef made it! He's the best!" Luffy nods in agreement. "If you say it's bad, I'll beat you up!" he says.

Dorry laughs. "Beat me up you say?" You smack the back of Luffy's head. "Baka! Don't be so rude!" you huff. Dorry laughs, smacking his knee. "What a funny squirt you are!"

You sigh with relief. "You two are getting along pretty well..." you sweat drop as Vivi and Karoo were thinking the exact same thing.

"If you don't mind me asking, sir, why do you live here alone?" you ask. "Shouldn't there be some kind of village where you live??" The giant frowns. "There is a village, it's the warrior's village, Elbaf. It's somewhere in the Grand Line."

"Eh? Somewhere?" you repeat.

He nods. "But there are rules in the village. For example, if two of us start a fight in the village and neither side backs off, we are judged by Elbaf's god. Elbaf's god always gives divine protection to the righteous one and lets the righteous one live.

"I see....Elbaf's god huh?" Luffy says. You nod listening intently as you take a piece of meat and start to eat it.

Dorry nods as he continues. "I caused a disturbance and this island is currently the site for a duel between a certain man and myself. The righteous one will win the duel and survive." he lets out a bellowing laugh just thinking about it. "But we haven't been able to settle it for 100 years."

You gasp trying to speak as you were chewing but choke instead hearing this. Dorry laughs louder, and you cough, spitting out the tiny piece of meat that had been lodged in your throat. "You guys've been fighting for 100 years?!" You and Luffy screech in unison.

"It's nothing surprising. Considering our life span is three times as long as yours." the giant says nonchalantly.

Vivi finally speaks up as she steps forward. "Even if it's three times as long, your interest in fighting would wane in 100 years wouldn't it?" Vivi frowns. "Is there any point in continuing to fight? It's a duel to the death right?!"

The giant only continues to laugh louder, seeing as Vivi didn't quite understand.

~~Meanwhile~~

Sanji and Zoro drag their "prey" dinosaurs, trying to still compete who could catch the larger prey. Eventually they meet, up, both thinking they won their little competition. "I win!" they say in unison.

Irritated at each other they lay the large animals next to each other. Sanji had caught a large brown T-Rex while Zoro caught a hunky gray Triceratops. Sanji's dinosaur was longer than Zoro's by a few inches.

"Ha! I win!" Sanji declares. Zoro's eye twitches in annoyance. "We're competing in kilos! It's obvious my prey is hunkier than yours!"

Sanji just smirks as he blows out his cigarette smoke. "Please, it all depends if we can use the meat for cooking. Your prey looks like it's just bones." he says. Zoro steps forward, sparks flying between the two crew members.

"Fine, I will catch a bigger prey than this one!" Sanji says, throwing down his finished cigarette on the ground. Zoro huffs. "Oh yeah? I'll catch a super big prey, one you can't even hope of reaching!"

The volcano goes off, catching the eye of the two. "The next eruption will signal the end of the competition." Sanji says pointing to the erupting volcano. " Bring your prey back to the Going Merry then."

"I'll take you up on that, Ero Cook." Zoro says.

~~Back to you~~

"Whoaaaa!" Luffy and you look in the distance seeing the volcano erupt along with a worried Vivi next to you. "That's a huge volcano eruption!" you gape in shock.

Dorry gets up, eyeing the volcano. "Well, time to go." he says. Luffy hums, turning around. There is a sudden glint in Dorry's eyes and Luffy catches it.

Meanwhile on the other side of the island, was the giant Broggy who was sitting with a scared Usopp and Nami, eating dinosaur meat. "What's that?" Nami says, looking at the volcano. "An eruption......." she mutters.

Broggy tosses what was left of his piece of meat into the fire, catching the attention of the two Straw Hat members. Broggy suddenly tenses, as Usopp catches it. 'His face suddenly got tense......' The giant still smiles at his three guests though. "Sorry.......I have to head out for a bit." he says getting up.

"What? Head out for what?" Nami asks, frowning hearing this. "Yeah. That was the signal for the duel I've been in for 100 years." he says grinning.

"A duel?" Usopp asks, now the two of them were standing up. "With whom? Where and for what reason?" Nami asks. "Reason?" the giant repeats. "I don't remember!" he laughs again. "It became our routine before we realized it." Dorry grins as he slips on his shield. "The eruption of the central mountain is the signal for the duel."

"What?! " Vivi exclaims. "To have such hatred that you'd try to kill each other for 100 years is...... What caused this fight?!" You and Luffy shoot your hands back at Vivi, telling her to stop. "That's not how it is Vivi." you say softly.

Luffy nods. "Yeah." Dorry gets into a battle, stance as there is a loud rumbling coming from the opposite direction. "That's right." Dorry grins. "It's because of our pride."

Broggy came running to Dorry first, letting out a loud battle cry. Dorry did the same, as the two clash shields. "I forgot the reason a long time ago!"

The impact of the two giants sends a shock throughout even past the island! You all stand there, wide eyed your jaws nearly hitting the ground. Luffy was the first to move, as he collapsed on the ground, letting out a small breath.

"Wow.....What a huge duel!" he exclaims. "You can say that again." You grin as you hold out your hand for Luffy to take. He does so, as you pull him up so the two of you could watch and see the outcome of this huge duel.

~~Meanwhile~~

Somewhere else on the island, a large dinosaur was intrigued by a strange white house. It growled as it tried to bite it down, with no success though as it shattered all of it's teeth.

"Oi. You're in our way." A deep male voice says from behind. A female stood next to him. "Let me take care of it." she giggles. The dinosaur charges at them, but the woman known as Miss Valentine hops up in the air,

"10,000 Kilogram Press!" she yells before she lands back on the poor creature killing it. Mr. 5 just watches her as she and him walk into the strange wax like structure the dino had tried to destroy.

"Ah, hello Mr. 5." A new voice says as the two step inside.

"Pretty nice house you have out here in the jungle. But let me remind you this is still our mission, Mr. 3."
