Conveniently, Pavo is a local. He guided them where to hide the ship and even warned them about the locals being rewarded for every pirate they could spot. He told them that the Log Pose usually takes 3 days to set and offered to do grocery shopping for them while taking care of the Log Pose. However, Nami couldn't entrust him with the Log Pose and was worried about the quality of food he'd buy. She insisted him to have Sanji but Pavo is not taking the risk, telling his job is to deliver packages and not as a bodyguard.

Since Nami is not budging, he instructed them instead of the things they need. He pointed on the map the locations of the market, shops where they could sell gold, the prison and marine posts.

Following Pavo's advice, the supply team made it to the city through the forest, wearing noble disguises. Robin is wearing a purple long-sleeved chiffon maxi dress while holding a light brown hijab to cover her face. Sanji is in his wedding suit, dyed in black, with a dress shirt in red. He brushed up his hair and a black ram mask covered his face. Brook wore his usual. Though they were blending in, locals were wary of them.

The supply team split into 2 groups. Robin and Brook went to sell gold and Sanji went alone to the market with a big backpack.

While bargain hunting for ingredients, a friendly vendor in a mouse mask asked Sanji if he's a tourist. He was surprised by the bold question.

"Yes. I'm here with my wife for our honeymoon." Sanji hoped it lessens the suspicion.

"Congratulations. This is my first time seeing you here. Did you just arrive?" The vendor smiled.

"No. My butler does this but I want to surprise my wife."

"Young couples. How I want to go back to those days. If you need help going home, I can assist you to the marines."

"I'm aware of their good service. We are scheduled to leave." Good thing, Pavo informed them of the marine's operations.

"Is your wife being accompanied by a tall man wearing a skull mask?"

Checkmate. Sanji doesn't know how to answer but not responding would only raise suspicion. He nervously laughed.

"Did they pass by here? I told my butler not to."

The vendor gave him the ingredients he bought and said, "You don't need to worry, sir. Just present your ticket home. But If I were you, I wouldn't let my wife go off wandering like that."

Sanji cut his shopping short, hid in an alley and called Robin. Robin is shocked by the news and decides to meet in the forest and go back to ship.

When they reached Merry, Jinbei swam in distance from them as planned to not expose himself. Sanji hurriedly loaded the boat and helped push it off the coast. Sanji, who was left behind intentionally for the Log Pose, reported to Nami of the happenings.

When Robin's team arrived at the ship, it was like they were at war with all hands on deck -- almost. Robin went straight to the bathroom to take a bath before going to the aquarium bar for isolation. Jinbei and Brook with help of Nami took the ingredients to the pantry and put all the meat in the refrigerator before they took a bath. Franky sanitized Going Merry. Chopper, Usopp and beaten-enslaved Luffy sanitized the paths that the supply team took.

Camping in the forest, Sanji is still not comfortable using his raid suit but after thinking hard, Sanji pulled it out and turned on the invisibility mode. He revisited the market, shops and even spied marines to check if there were talks about them. He felt relieved knowing they are in the clear.

Noon of the third day since Sanji camped in the forest, nothing unusual happened except Pavo's visits on Strawhats' ship with packages sent by him. He used his raid suit's invisibility in guiding Pavo to grocery shopping and was teased for not doing so in the first place. He had just sent Pavo again for another errand when a worried and furious Nami reached out through a den den mushi and learned of Zoro's and Luffy's runaway.

"Nami-san, calm down. What exactly happened?"
