Lott led Issho and the others slowly off the ship.
Nott had originally wanted to show Issho around Peach Garden, but Issho said he wanted to see this world for himself.
Lott did not refuse when he heard this. He knew Issho wanted to experience life throughout Peach Garden firsthand through an objective understanding.
