Throughout the book, he is seen as the man with the solution. He polices the island to capture perpetrators who indulge in illegal trafficking and piracy. When the notorious smuggler known as Ram-cat becomes a serious threat, Grandpa became the hero for his success and determination in bringing Ram-cat to justice.
