Long Summary
After escaping from G-8 the Straw Hat Pirates land in the sea softly and continue their voyage. In Mock Town, Donquixote Doflamingo perches from a column and toys with Bellamy and Sarkies for being defeated by Luffy prior to his journey to Skypiea. Bellamy begs Doflamingo to give him another chance, but Doflamingo concludes that Bellamy and his crew are obsolete to him and uses his puppetry to force Sarkies to slash Bellamy, but not fatally enough to kill him. In the seas the Straw Hats notice a ship lacking it's sails without it's captain or navigator. The ship then sails into a giant wave which destroys the ship. The crew then come across Long Ring Long Land, however it is too plain for their (particularly Sanji's) tastes. Luffy, Usopp and Chopper immediately de-board and start to act childish as usual and explore the island. The trio see long animals and come across an old man named Tonjit who has a horse named Shelly. After roaming around Long Ring Long Land the damaged Going Merry is seized by another ship as it's captain confronts the crew and challenges them to a Davy Back Fight.
