Long Summary
Vivi starts to appreciate life on board the Going Merry and the carefree lifestyle of her new friends, but her knowledge of the grand line is useful for the crew.

After a calm journey, they finally arrive at Little Garden island which Miss All Sunday warned them about. It appears to be made of a weird tropical forest and be inhabited by even more weirder animals. Nami is not so eager to leave the boat, but it has the opposite effect on Luffy who is waiting for adventure. Much to Nami's surprise, Vivi decides to accompany Luffy in order to be distracted of her worries. She goes with a not so willingly Carue.

After they depart, Sanji asks Zoro to go on a hunt in order to get more food, but Zoro who is not so pleased to work on Sanji's orders, replies with a nasty comment which ends up in a hunt contest between the two.

While Luffy and Vivi, after discovering more and more weird animals, realise that Little Garden is in fact a prehistoric island which stayed at the dinosaur era, Nami and Usopp, alone and not very confident aboard the Going Merry, find a book which explains the island's name. Suddenly a giant shadow approaches them...
