Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge #4
In "Ballet Evasions," Scrooge McDuck takes a rare vacation to a remote Hawaiian island he's purchased, only to have his fortune canned and shipped—just as the Beagle Boys hijack the operation, turning the island into a trap. With Scrooge and his nephews imprisoned by the crooks, they must outwit their captors among the island’s mysterious inhabitants: the ancient Opu Nui and the elusive menehunes. Written, drawn, and inked by Carl Barks, this classic tale blends adventure and whimsy, with Barks’ distinctive cover art capturing the island’s hidden magic.

Scrooge has his money canned before shipping it to a Hawaiian island he has bought, but the Beagle Boys have infiltrated the canning operation and have bought the ship Scrooge uses. They make the ducks their prisoners on the island, which is now populated only by one old Hawaiian Opu Nui (Big Tummy) and the menehunes--the tiny ones.
