Apis

Apis (アピス) is a little girl who lives on Warship Island. She is also the granddaughter of Bokuden.

Appearance
Apis wears a long mustard yellow dress. The sleeves and the bottom of the dress are maroon with mustard colored circles. She has a dark maroon sash, and has the same colored undershirt. She has brown eyes, and blonder hair tied back in a braid with fair skin. She also has a pointy hat, white in color, and wears red shoes.

Personality
Apis is a brave little girl who tries her hardest to protect her friend, Ryu. She is also a very kind and caring little girl. Because of this she tends to get more emotional about things than other people would. A running gag is that Apis is terrible at cooking, and Luffy is the only one who likes her food.

Devil Fruit
Apis ate the Hiso Hiso no Mi. A Paramecia-class Devil Fruit that gives her the ability to telepathically communicate with or allowing her to understand the heart of animals.

Past
Apis was born around late 1514 or early 1515, from an unnamed couple, at some point of her childhood, her parents died and Apis was raised by her paternal grandfather.

Warship Island Arc
She tried to guard the Thousand Year Dragon Ryu from the Marines on her own, but she was captured by Commodore Nelson.

The Straw Hat Pirates helped her out when she ran away from the marines, taking care of her and aiding her during her journey. After many struggles, she managed to find the Lost Island and was able to fulfill her duty of taking Ryuji back to the island.

When offered to join the crew she declines and says that she wants to stay and protect the island. Her last appearance was of her running away in terror when her grandfather was about to begin explaining to her the history of her ancestors due to her grandfather's way of telling stories (long and boring).
