To no one's surprise, Luffy beat the crap out of Hordy.
And he was about to do the same thing to the Noah, until Shirahoshi stepped in and called some Sea King friends to assist.
When the battle was done, the citizens were overflowing with gratitude, to the princess and to the pirate, and decided to throw the crew a huge celebratory banquet.
And in true Strawhat fashion, the entire crew spent the next few days partying like they never partied before.
But all good things must come to an end.
And, once he was finished eating to his heart's content, the captain was ready to move on to the New World.
So after saying his goodbyes, and cussing out a Yonko over transponder snail, the crew set sail.
And somehow ended up on an island made up of volcanoes and fire...

"Well, that settles it," Robin stated, the five of you approaching the melted gate, "This is where the call came from."
"Yeah, he definitely said Punk Hazard..." You agreed, looking up at the crooked sign.
The Sunny had gotten a distress call from some man who was in complete hysterics, screaming about a samurai and how his comrades were dead and how cold he was.
Robin deduced that he was calling from a nearby, portable transponder snail, and since those have a limited range, the signal had to be coming from the nearest island.
...
Which was completely ablaze.
"Get Mini-Merry away from all that fire," Luffy grunted, he and Zoro pulling it away from the flames that lined the shoreline of the island.
"So this is the right island, but that distress call could've come from anywhere..." Zoro added.
"How curious. Seems the island is off-limits," Robin smiled.
"Yeah! Luffy! See that?" Usopp exclaimed, frantically pointing to the sign posted on the gate entrance.
It read DANGER: KEEP OUT in big, bold letters, and had the symbols of a skull and the World Government on it.
"Yeah? So? I love danger," the captain shrugged.
"Not that! The World Government mark! They're running this place! So whoever is was that called for help was a marine! It's obviously a trap!"
The sniper turned around, hastily walking back towards the Mini-Merry.
