The quintuplets first appeared in Camie's house on Fish-Man Island. When Monkey D. Luffy and his crew got separated and later reunited with Camie, the quintuplets provided them with dried clothes. After introductions, they went to Mermaid Cove together.
Later, the quintuplets informed Camie about the royal gondola's arrival and expressed concern about possible royalty on board. They were also present in Coral Hill when the Straw Hats were suspected of kidnapping mermaids. Upon hearing news of the Straw Hats' alleged takeover of the Ryugu Palace, the quintuplets were in disbelief.
After the battle for Fish-Man Island, the quintuplets danced at the banquet in the Ryugu Palace. During the Straw Hats' departure, the quintuplets bid them farewell.
