History

Poppy fell in love with Nerine, who eventually left her to serve the Donquixote Family. Once the pirates were toppled, she dreaded that he had died or been arrested. Found weeping outside the Corrida Colosseum, she explained her plight to the Straw Hat Pirates, who agreed to search and followed her tip about a man fitting Nerine's description hiding on the New Royal Plateau. They returned without him, relaying his request that she be told he was dead, a choice meant to shield her from his Donquixote ties. Annoyed that he had again acted alone, and tipped off by Sanji that he had gone to where they first met, she set out herself, reached the fountain by the colosseum, found Nerine, and talked him out of the ruse.
