My memory on this arc is a bit blurry and lacking, it's been a long time since I watched it, so please forgive any missing parts and/or incorrect information.
An undetermined amount of time later, the crew began waking up to find their ship sailing on the clouds, something that Lucy would have believed impossible before today, despite the fact she had gone to a parallel dimension and had come to this dimension which didn't even have magic.
Lucy, Zoro, Sanji, and Luffy were the first part of the group to wake up, soon followed by Robin and Chopper, then Usopp and Nami. Here were some of the first things they noticed upon waking. First, they were literally in the clouds. Second, the "wings" on the Going Merry had been ripped off. And third, someone had changed all their clothes. Sanji however, noticed a fourth thing, and to say he was not pleased would a grave understatement.
"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU WEARING CLOTHES THAT MATCH LUCY-SWAN'S, YOU DAMNED MOSS-HEAD!?" Sanji roared at the green haired swordsman, his visible eye practically flaming with rage.
"How the hell should I know?!" Zoro shouted back at him. It was true, out of the entire group, Lucy and Zoro were the only ones with matching outfits.
Lucy was wearing a red and black, vertical striped bralette with leather straps underneath and around the outer side of her chest, leading up to a brown leather choker with a regular, downwards facing copper key held just below the center of her neck. Her mini-skirt was made of a soft brown leather and had a trailing back so that it nearly went down to her ankles at the back. The stockings she wore were made of a sleek, black material that looked somewhat like silk and were held up by wide bands of cloth, coming up to within just a few inches of the front edge of her mini-skirt.
Her boots were also made of a brown leather coming almost up to her knees and with three inch heels. There copper buttons that ran up and down the outer side of the boots. On her right hand was brown leather glove that went a little past her wrist. It had an open back with a thin strap of leather across the opening to show her Fairy Tail guild mark. On her left hand was a glove that was like her stockings and went all the way up to the middle of her bicep. At her was her whip, the cylinder for her celestial whip, and her key pouch. A black ribbon held her hair up in her signature side ponytail.
Zoro was wearing a sleeveless, snug black shirt that appeared to be made from the same material as Lucy's stockings. Over that he had a red and black, vertical striped vest on. His pants were brown leather and his haramaki was replaced with a black leather belt with two additional straps hanging off the right side one of his katana was attached to the belt while the two were attached to the two additional straps. His boots had been switched for ones that were identical to Lucy's apart from not having elevated heels and having thicker, meatier soles. A copper key hung from a leather string around his neck and rested on the outside of his shirt.
Nami was wearing a sky blue bikini with gold swirling patterns. A blue wraparound with a single gold strip near the bottom was fastened around her hips with a thin, white belt. To complete the look were high-heeled cork sandals with silver colored straps.
Robin was wearing an outfit of a darker color scheme, consisting of purples and blacks. The shirt she wore was a magenta color and seemed to be made of silk. It was a button up an there was some frilling on either side of the buttons, of which, a few top ones were undone so that the collar was open. For her lower half, the shirt was loosely tucked into a tight, black, mid-thigh skirt, to which a silver belt was added to for looks. Dark purple, mid-shin high-heeled boots completed the outfit.
Usopp's overalls had been switched in favor of a teal jumpsuit, the waist of which was decorated with a dark green belt. The upper part of the jumpsuit was left open to show a maroon undershirt. He wore the same brown shoes he always did and his satchel and goggles were left alone.
Luffy was wearing a snug black shirt that showed off his stomach with a green, high collared cape that had a white trim. His pants were black and poofed, ending past his knees. The pants had been tucked into a pair of dark green boots, but Luffy had kicked them off in favor of his sandals, and there was a dark green cloth with a black trim hanging in front of his pants. As always he wore his straw hat, creating a bit of a mismatched look.
Sanji . . . well he was just wearing a light blue suit with a red tie and a white undershirt. Basically his clothes weren't much different than what he usually wore. And last, but not least, was Chopper. Now, although it was the cutest thing in three worlds, he was, for some reason, wearing a white bunny suit with a hood that had bunny ears attached to it. The hood was resting on top of his pink, cross hat.
"Cute . . . " said Robin, pretty much staring at Chopper.
Unfortunately for Chopper, Lucy and Nami were not so restrained. "Cute!" they squealed, the both of them picking him up and smothering him between their breasts.
"Do you like them, Lucy-sama?" said Virgo, appearing out of nowhere once again.
Lucy smiled at the maiden spirit. "Thank you Virgo. As always you make the cutest clothes, I figured this was your doing."
"If that is all, I'll be leaving, Lucy-sama." Virgo said before disappearing, appearing to drill into the deck of the ship.
Sanji whined about he was jealous of Chopper and Luffy gushed over how cool having a cape was. Zoro just grunted and ignored them. Then both he and Usopp spotted something odd. There was someone riding on the clouds and was approaching them, and at a very fast pace at that.
The crews antics were suddenly disrupted when the man riding on the clouds attacked them. Frighteningly, the group's main fighters weren't able to defend themselves, Luffy, Sanji, Zoro and Robin having been taken out before they could do anything. Taking action, Lucy summoned Loke to help fight as she took out her whip. She wasn't much use due to the thinness of the air, but that didn't seem to be a problem for the celestial spirit.
"Regulus: Punch!" he shouted, his fist encased in light as her punched the strange man, stunning him.
Once he had regained his senses, he ran off, with Loke smirking triumphantly after him. He knelt by Lucy. "Hime-sama, are you alright?" he asked with a charming smile, holding out his hand.
Lucy took it graciously. "Thanks Loke, sorry I wasn't much help." she said as he helped her stand.
"That's fine, Lucy-sama, I'll always be here whenever you need me." he said flirtatiously, kissing the back of her gloved hand.
Lucy's face deadpanned at the flirting. "Yeah, yeah." she said, gently prying her hand from his. "Thanks for helping Loke, you can go now." she said, closing his gate.
"SO COOL!" Luffy, Chopper, and Usopp all exclaimed.
Sanji began swooning over Lucy. She almost laughed. The crew reminded her much of Fairy Tail, considering the four that had been taken down were already back on their feet again.
"Amazing, it normally takes people from the blue sea a few days to adjust to the air up here." said a new voice.
They all turned to see and old man carrying a lance and wearing a full suit of plate armor sitting on, of all things, a pink bird with purple polka dots. That's right, a large pink bird, with purple polka dots. Even Lucy, someone who came from Fairy Tail, had a weirdness boundary, and it had just been crossed.
The old man introduced himself as Dan Fall and told them how they could get to the island of Skypiea. He gave them a key they could use to call him in case they needed help again, then the bird turned into a pegasus and they both flew away. For Lucy, the weirdness threshold had definitely been breached. On a side note, everyone was quickly adapting to the thinner air up in the clouds and they continued on their journey.
After a little bit, they came along an old woman named Amazon who was guarding the entrance. Amazon demanded an entrance fee of one million extol. Since Nami didn't know what that was, she and the rest of the crew just entered without paying the fee, ignoring the old woman's warnings that they'd be criminals.
When they reached the shore of the island, everyone immediately noticed that the shore was super soft, though it was to be expected since it was made of clouds, just as everything else. Then they heard the sound of someone playing a harp, it wasn't as good as Lyra's but it came close. The oddest thing about the girl playing the harp . . . was that she appeared to have small wings coming out of her back.
After they started talking to her, the girl introduced herself as Conis. Then a group called the White Berets, this island's version of a military, showed up. After refusing to pay the fine, a fight broke out between the White Berets and Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Lucy, and Robin. The Straw Hats won the fight and Conis offered to hide them at her father's house where they could eat. Chopper, Nami, Robin, Zoro, and Lucy stayed on the ship while the rest went to Conis' house to eat, that's where they were told about the shells they called "dials".
The real surprise came when an extremely large sky crab, nothing surprised Lucy at this point, carried the ship of to another, nearby island and left them at an oddly structured ruin. When the other found out they their ship and crew members had been carried off, Conis lead Usopp, Luffy, and Sanji to find a ship, eventually pointing out a small ship that belonged to her and her father.
Luffy noticed that Conis was shaking, and she broke down admitting that she had called the giant crab and that she was leading them to God's Island, or the Upper Yard, and that the punishment for not doing so would mean her death. The other civilians of the islands began running away from her as she said this. Not even a minute after, a pillar of blue lightning was brought down on her, leaving a massive hole in the cloud island.
Just as Usopp began freaking out, and before Luffy and Sanji could go into a rage at this "God" Enel, they saw Gan Fall carrying Conis on his pegasus. As Conis and her father were now considered criminals, Gan Fall offered to take them to his house, which was out of Enel's reach. When he offered the same to the Straw Hats, what Luffy responded with something shocking, nearly literally so.
He grinned widely and said, "Thanks old man, but I gotta go save my crew!" he said, beginning to head towards Conis' ship.
Sanji and a shaking Usopp followed him. Everyone was shocked at their bravery, loyalty, or stupidity. They were still going to go after their friends, despite seeing a very clear display of Enel's power. The only one that even seemed scared was Usopp, though he was going in spite of that.
"Yosh! To Upper Yard!" Luffy shouted.
"Sit down you idiot!" Sanji yelled, kicking his Captain in the head as the ship began going towards Enel's Island.
None of them knew what they would face, the trials they would experience, or even that they would become part of a game. All that any of them knew, was that they would be in for one hell of an adventure. But more than anything, they knew that they needed to help their friends.
Hope you enjoyed and please leave a review.
