Summary
The episode begins onboard Zap's pirate ship, where a duo of pirate help three children escape on a boat.

They land on an island-at which the Straw Hats also arrive. They pose as a family, but its quickly seen through that they're not. Soon enough, Zap catches up with them and manages to capture the oldest girl, Amanda and Luffy, who is acting mightily sleepy in the special at first and so is easy to capture, apparently.

The Straw Hats visit Amanda's fathers hut, to try to find out where the great treasure is. They learn that the treasure island is between Mamanato island and Samua Island, where they are now. They also learn Amanda holds the the key to finding the treasure.

On Zap's ship, Luffy wakes up, tied to a pole besides Amanda. He looks for his Straw Hats, with no concern for being captured.

Soon Zap's ship arrives by the boat of Bayan. Zap leads Amanda on the ship and he and Bayan see Luffy walking around aimlessly.

They then have a plan. They give a feast and let Luffy eat and deceive him later. However, Luffy eats everyone's food and so Bayan uses his special tactic-he positions his entire crew in a circular-stage on his ship and lets them sing, which gives Bayan the power to manipulate people against their will. Luffy stops eating and ends up on the floor, being chained up. Zap then takes him and Amanda on deck. Bayan uses the choir's power to force Amanda to raise her shirt and reveal the map her father Tattooed on her back. Bayan reveals to Amanda that he was the man who killed her father.

Just then, the Straw Hats catch up to Bayan. He however uses his choir to make Luffy fight against his crew. This tactic was successful until Usopp manages to shoot sleeping pellets into Bayan's crew's mouths, stopping them from singing. The Straw Hats board Bayan's ship, easily defeating Zap and using a combined attack against Bayan, sends him off into the ocean.

The Straw Hats then sail back to the island, where the treasure is supposed to be. Afterwards, the island starts to "open" and reveals itself to be a giant clam. Inside is a gigantic pearl, which makes Amanda acknowledge her father's drive for adventure.
