History
After the birth of Ace, Garp moved him here for Dadan 's care.

10 years ago, when the story started, Shanks and his Pirate Crews stopped by here where Luffy meets them. After a while, Garp came back and took Luffy to Dadan. He met Ace there. At first Ace is antagonistic towards Luffy when Luffy tries to befriend him as he travels to the Gray Terminal. Eventually, Luffy manages to follow Ace to his hideout with Sabo, Ace's friend, who had just robbed Polchemi, a pirate under Captain Bluejam. Luffy ends up captured by Polchemi, but refuses to spill Ace and Sabo's location under pressure and beatings. Eventually Sabo catches wind of this, and he and Ace help save Luffy. Afterwards Sabo is brought to live under Dadan with Ace and Luffy, where they go around fighting wild animals and pirates, eventually becoming known in the Goa Kingdom. It is around this time that the Tenryūbito visit the Goa Kingdom.

7 years after that, Ace departed from the island. Luffy did the same thing 3 years later.

Wildlife
Cows can be found at the outskirts of the village. However Corbo Mountain is a home to dangerous gigantic animals such as Tigers, Alligators, Bears, Snakes, and Vultures.
