Chapter 9
"So you guys seriously plan on defeating the dragon?" Blade asked Shayne and Kan as the four of them were sitting around a table in Blade's house.
"If it means that you'll join my crew than defiantly!" Shayne said with a bright and determined expression in his eyes.
"But you don't even know what you're going up against, you two!" Mia yelled out.
"Don't worry Mia," Shayne said. "I mean Kan here has a Devil Fruit ability, and you know how strong I am from all those fights with your brother." Shayne said reassuringly.
"Do you guys even have a plan?" She asked them.
"Go over there and beat him up!" Kan exclaimed.
"That's not really a plan," Mia said.
"Yeah, she's right you two," Blade began speaking. "You can't just go over there and expect to win. You need a plan. I mean, of all the swords I made, which are the strongest on the island, none of them were even able to scratch him!"
"C'mon you guys," Shayne says. "Quit worrying. Just trust us here."

Later that afternoon Blade brings them to the other side of the mountain to where the cave the dragon lives in. As they were standing outside they looked into the inside of it. Then they heard a deep growling voice coming from the cave. "That's the dragon," Blade informs them.
"Wow! It sounds totally strong!" Shayne exclaims.
"Just be careful." Mia says.
Then Shayne, Kan, and Blade walk inside to go find and defeat the dragon.

"So how far back does this cave go?" Kan asks Blade as he was leading them through the cave.
"Quite a ways. The dragon is usually in the far back. But we should be getting there soon," he informs the two of them.
"I see," Shayne says.

"So are the three of them back yet?" The girl from earlier pops out from behind a bush and asks Mia.
"No not yet. But they've been in there for quite a while," Mia says.
"Well did you hear any sounds that a fight is going on?" The girl asks again.
"No. Why?" Mia asks.
"You'll be able to hear them. If you haven't yet they probably haven't found the dragon yet," she informs Mia.
"Oh. I see."

Shayne, Kan, and Blade finally reach the end of the cave. There they see a giant bird nest. "Wow that's a big nest!" Shayne exclaims.
"Yeah that's the dragon's nest," Blade tells them. "Although it doesn't look like the dragon is here."
"Then what was that growling from before?" Kan asks.
"I don't know." Blade says.
Then Shayne climbs over to see what was inside the nest. "Hey guys you gotta look at this." He yells to them.
The two of them follow Shayne and climb up to see what he's talking about. There they find what looks to be a baby dragon. "It's so cute!" Shayne says.
"So do you think the dragon you've been fighting had a baby?" Kan asks Blade.
"I guess so," he replies.
Then they hear a loud scream coming from back at the entrance to the cave.
