Lana swam after the Going Mary for a day or two now without being spotted. Ever so often she would peak up from the water to glance at where Sanji was. occasionally she was close to being spotted by him, and when they got closer to whiskey peaks an idea struck Lana and she broke into a huge grin as she swam ahead to the island.
Meanwhile on deck, Nezu was navigating using her powers, Valora was in charge of the rudder and Nami had put Zoro in charge of making sure Nezu doesn't overwork herself since she is now pregnant. As they came closer to the islands shoreline loud cheering could be heard.
The crew gathered on deck to see crowds and crowds of people swarming the shores to cheer for them. Nezu eyed them warily, she has never had much luck with humans and now she had a mate and an unborn child to think of.
Zoro glanced at Nezu and put a protective arm around her, "Don't worry starlight, no one will dare lay a finger on you as long as you're family is here."
Nezu's eyes widened and she smiled softly as she realized that she really didn't have anything to fear from these strangers... if someone were to harm her they would be dealt with by the whole crew, Zoro, and her sister. Sanji glanced around the crowds of women but stopped when his eyes locked with a beautiful pair of emerald green eyes.... they were almost hypnotic in a way.
"Hey, Sanji, are ya excited for the party?!" Usopp exclaimed as he slapped Sanji on the back which snapped him out of his daydreaming.
{who is that beautiful green eyed woman?} Sanji thought to himself, {she definitely stood out umongst the crowd of women... though something tells me I just have to meet her.}
As they met with the chief of the island who was a weird looking man with curly white hair, Valora felt that something was off but for the sake of keeping her sister calm... she kept her suspicions to herself. While everyone was enjoying the party Sanji was keeping an eye out for the mystery green eyed woman.
"Umm, excuse me, can I sit here?"
Sanji looked up at the woman talking to him to realize it was the mystery green eyed woman he was looking for... she had long wavy deep blue hair that framed her heart shaped face. Her figure was slim yet curvy in all the right places and she wore a white dress that looked like it belonged to a goddess.
Sanji stood up rather quickly, then as a way to recover his gentleman's grace said, "Dear Great goddess of the ocean has graced me with a treasure beyond measures.... please tell me your name."
"I am known as Lana... whats your name?" Lana giggled a bit at Sanji's reaction but soon coughed a bit since her mucus layer was drying up and needed to return to the water soon.
