History
Battle for Arabasta
When the Straw Hat Pirates were on their way to Arbana without their captain to stop the rebellion, the situation seemed hopeless. They would never make it in time, but unexpectedly the Super Spot-Billed Duck Troops showed up and picked up the Straw Hat Pirates, Matsuge, and Vivi. To make the princess’s plan work, Matsuge posed as a human and rode the ducks into town to make the Baroque agents think Vivi was among the people. Thus, Hikoichi brought Nami into the city while the princess tried to stop Koza. Later, when Zoro was searching for Nami, he ran into Hikoichi and Kentauros.
However, to their dismay, he ran not in the direction of his comrade, which was not far away, but in the exact opposite direction, calling it a shortcut. After Luffy’s victory over Crocodile, the racing duck corps saw the rain they had longed for and later took the Straw Hat Pirates to the The Going Merry so they could leave the island again. While doing so, Chopper rode on Hikoichi’s back. Afterwards, they made their way back home.
After the departure of the straw hats
Some time later, along with the rest of the racing duck corps and a few familiar Arabasta residents, he visited Ukkari Bath, which had been opened only a short time before by Gedatsu and Goro.
