Location of Seven Grapefruit Islands in the Orange Archipelago |
The Seven Grapefruit Islands (Japanese: ザボン七島 Seven Zabon Islands) are a chain of seven tiny isles in the eastern region of the Orange Archipelago. The islands grow grapefruits, and is the only place where they grow them in the Orange Islands. The people on this island also make the grapefruit peels into candies.
Although the islands are famous for their grapefruits, they were not grown naturally. The people on the island grow the grapefruit. Each island is covered in grapefruit trees. The grapefruits on the islands, although are very delicious, are very difficult to eat because of the tough peels. The grapefruits grown on the islands are larger than a regular grapefruit.
When a hungry Snorlax traversed the islands in search for food, Ruby put the area on lockdown because she feared for the survival of the grapefruit.
