Long Summary
Jonathan meets Johanne's mother. Jonathan apologizes for coming unexcused. Her mother replied that it's fine and the two continued to play. Johanne then asks her mother if she can go out and play with Jonathan. Later on they arrived in a bar and meets some mountain bandits. The bandits are mocking them for dressing up as pirates. Later on Palinsky, one of the most recognized pirates in the world arrives in Redrum Island to view their prized scenery.

Jonathan and Johanne are surprised when they saw Palinsky, which they read in the books as one of the most recognized pirates in the world during that time. They were amazed when they saw the legendary straw hat passed down time and worn by several famous pirates, including the two pirate kings Gol D. Roger and Monkey D. Luffy.

Palinsky called the bartender and said he wants one bottle of sake. When he saw Jonathan and Johanne being threatened by the bandits, Palinsky told the bandits not to play badly with kids. This led the bandits to go against him and his crew. One of the bandits pointed his gun at Palinsky. Palinsky gently placed his hands on the top of his head. The other bandits mocked Palinsky's crew and blaming them for the troubles in the island that happened recently, then shot at Palinsky's bottle of sake and then at the bar tables. Palinsky just calmly avoids it. Jonathan cries at Palinsky why he did not fight the bandits. Palinsky replied there are occasions that he doesn't need to fight.

Later, Palinsky's crew and the bandits met again in the road. Johanne tries to fight but is easily defeated and pointed by one of the bandits in the head. Palinsky finds an easy way of fighting the bandits. He gathered up his crew and prepared him for the first move by unleashing his Haoshoku Haki. His crew fought the rest of the bandits until it will be between the captain and the bandit leader. Palinksy told the leader had his zipper open and when the leader looked down, he immediately kicked him in the face, knocking him down.

Jonathan and Johanne thanked Palinsky for their help. Palinsky then gave the straw hat to Jonathan and left. When the two met Palinsky's crew again in the fields, they saw them filling the hole. Palinsky said that it is something Luffy has left and reminded not to open the chest until the right time comes. Palinsky takes the two home since the two were already sleeping.

After 10 years, Jonathan and Johanne finally grew up. They woke up to greet a new day and were welcomed by Johanne's parents. They went to the field to dig the treasure and were amazed what they saw, two necklaces Luffy left and a message heavily encrypted similar to those in poneglyphs. The two takes the necklacesand brought it home.
