The next day comes and workers have come and are coating the ship in it's bubble form.
And Derpy is missing having never come back.

Makino went around the ship, checking with each crew member: had anyone seen Derpy and where was she last?

One by one they all confirm they have not seen Derpy since she left to explore the Archipelago yesterday.

"So no location in particular, huh? ...Hm. Given how she typically looks, I'm sure someone's seen her", she pondered. "I'm heading out to look for her", she said, doing just that.

"Should we go with you?" Yaeko asks as the rest of the crew prepare to follow.

"If you guys so wish, but some of us should stay here to watch the ship, keep an eye on the coating work, and wait in case she returns while we're away", she requested.

After a quick debate Stormgiant, Marimo, Vivi, Lisbeth, Forever, and the cooks all agree to stay on the ship.

"Alright. Come on, let's go", she said, taking the lead. 6 in Intelligence to start looking for her, asking around in case people seen her.

(I forgot about Cross, add him to the people left on the ship since it doesn't make sense for him to tag along.)
You ask around, and find that the pony was last seen with a large balding old man. a very large man with grey hair and a mustache. He was carrying her off to an old abandoned building in one of the grotos dominated by woods.

Makino frowned upon learning that. "...I dunno what to think about that, but I don't like it. Let's go and find her", she said, heading towards said grottos and the woods in questions. 1 in Speed to get moving;
6 in Intelligence to try my best to find the right grotto.

You find the building with no problems were Derpy is laying on the ground asleep her body wrapped in hand-bent bars of seastone.
"Hmmm... So you are the legendary Devil Child?" A big burly old man with a beard asks. "Excellent. I knew you would come find me if I nabbed one of your crew." He said cracking his knuckles.

The greenette frowned. "I would also come find you if you, you know, asked. And yes, I am. Who are you and what do you want?" she asked, drawing Tsu no Kaze just in case. 9 (Ef) in Close Combat plus 2 from Swordmaster, plus 6 from the Tsu no Kaze into defense. (Total ph.defense: 26)

"My name is Kaioh D. Dorian, and I have come to the Grand Line... to taste defeat." The old man said proudly.

"Which means that prior to coming here, no one has ever defeated you in a fight, is that it?" Makino asked. "That's fairly amazing. So... you kidnapped one of my crew just to get me to come here and fight you to try and taste defeat?"

"Of course." He said. "I have been working my way through fighter after fighter to get here, and none have given me the defeat I wanted." He said going into several martial arts stances.
