History
Arabasta Saga
Reverse Mountain Arc
When the Straw Hat Pirates accidentally sailed into the Calm Belt, Birdy and other Sea Kings, including Mottled and Googly-Eyed, emerged from the sea. However, it soon dove back under the surface, leaving just the latter two Sea Kings with the Going Merry.
Fishman Island Saga
Fishman Island Arc
Birdy was one of the Sea Kings unconsciously summoned by Shirahoshi when Luffy was attempting to destroy Noah to save Fish-Man Island. Birdy and five others of its kind—Mottled, Googly-Eye, Underbite, Scales and Topknot—took ahold of the ship's chains, halting its descent. Conversing with Shirahoshi, the Sea Kings explained that she was their sovereign and had called them. After Shirahoshi left to save the fainted Luffy, the Sea Kings talked amongst themselves. They noted that it had seemed as if Luffy had heard their voices, something that previously occured with Gol D. Roger. They then wondered if Noah could be repaired before the "promised day". After pulling Noah to the Sea Forest, they swam away.
