Everyone decided to gather at the front of the house, Montblanc Cricket wanted to discuss on how he's going to help them get to sky island.
"So what is it that you need to tell us?" Luffy said
" I'll start off by telling what I personally know about the Sky Island, None of its certain though." Cricket said
"Well then what is it then?" Cray said
"Theres a Strange Phenomenon that occurs in these waters, sometimes it'll turn to night, even though its the middle of the day." Cricket said
"Yeah that happened to us once!" Luffy said
"Yeah and when it did there where these shadows of monsters towering over us." Cray said
"Yeah Giant Monster Shadows." Ussop yelled
"The Giants? Yeah theirs a story about where they come from but forget em for now, this sudden nightfall..its caused by shadows of extremely compacted clouds." Cricket said
"You mean Cumulonimbus clouds? but it was to dark to be clouds." Nami said
"Yeah Old man "Compacted Clouds"? it's called a Cloudy Day." Cray said
SHUT UP AND LISTEN!...there are clouds known as "Cumuloregalis" clouds that pile high into the sky but produce no air currents or rain, and when they get high enough they block out the sun, bringing nighttime afternoon to the ground. many theories suggest that those clouds are fossilized clouds that have floated in the sky for thousands of years." Cricket said
That's Ridiculous!" Nami said
"Your free to believe they exist or not." Cricket said
"So there Mystery Clouds then?" Luffy said
"Pretty much. theirs still no explanation for them...listen if a sky island does exist that'd be the only possible place where it would be." Cricket said
"Okay gotcha, Lets go above those clouds then!" Luffy yelled jumping up and down with Ussop with Excitement
"Get Ready everyone!" Luffy yelled
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY IT WE HAVE NO WAY TO GET UP THERE!?" Nami yelled Punching both Ussop and Luffy
"Now comes the real Problem..Let me start by saying this, your lives are on the line!...The Knock up Stream is a current that shoots into the Air, You can theoretically take it into the sky understand?" Cricket said
"Its a Current that can send ships flying right?" Nami said
"Oh? then it just needs to send us above the clouds!" Luffy said
"Wait a minute wouldn't something like that smash us back into the ocean!?" Cray said
"Yes, but the key thing is timing, its easy to talk about being sent up the current, but when in action it very risky.. The Knock up Stream is a natural Disaster, something that should normally be avoided...Deep beneath the Sea floor there are Large cavities that low temperature sea water seeps through. The heat from the earth below turns that water into steam and when enough pressure is built up it causes an explosion on the sea floor, that sends a current into the sky..For about one minute the sea continues to rise into the sky." Cricket said
"One minute!? what kind of explosion are we talking about!?" Nami yelled
" A Big one..the Explosions change Location each time and occur five times a Month.. but describing a great Natural Phenomenon with words and logic is Foolish." Cricket said
So what your saying is this Current is are only ticket to get there?" Cray said
"And it only happens five times a Month?" Ussop said
"Yeah and if you miss you'll fall back down, slam into the Ocean. And then you'll all end up in the bottom of the ocean." Cricket said
"damn." Cray said worried
Ussop just had a terrified look on his face.
"A-Alright Lets give up on Sky Island hehe." Ussop said nervously
"Luffy was just laughing.
"Yeah Luffy its so impossible its Laughable, you have to be really really Lucky to make it there." Ussop said laughing
"We'll be fine, Lets go!" Luffy said
Ussop then Frowned
"How can you say We'll be fine?...Just take a look at the Poor Merry do you think she'll be able to take something like that?" Ussop said crying
"I hate to say it Luffy but Ussop has a Point, I doubt The Merry can withstand a disaster like that." Cray said
" That's true, even in Mint Condition that ship wouldn't stand a chance... Speed, Weight Strength that boat would be blasted apart in the explosion." Cricket said
" So...it really is Impossible to get there?" Ussop said
But don't Worry about that, Masari and Shojo will help take you there, after we Strengthen your ship of course." Cricket said
"Yeah Just leave it to us!" Masari and Shoujou yelled out
"Thanks Guys!" Luffy yelled
"Question? after you reinforce the ship what exactly are your going to do to help us get there?" Cray said
"you can believe me or not, but I think I might be able to get your ship to actually fly, with the Knock up Stream" Cricket said
"FLY!?" the Straw Hats yelled
"Yes." Cricket said taking out something from his Pocket and handing it over
Nami took the page and looked at it, it was a Drawing of a ship with wings on it. The Drawing looked like an old final Draft of a design.
"Where did you come up with something like this!?" Cray yelled
""I didn't, there old plans by a close friend of Nolands a long time ago. his name was Ludovico." Cricket said.
"Ludovico?" Ussop said
"He was the first one to ever theorize using the Knock up Stream to fly. Although back then, he referred to it as the "Heaven Shooter." Cricket said
"What happened to him?" Cray said
"Nobody really knows for certain, But many people think that he set out to find Sky Island right after Nolands Execution, He was never seen since and many people believed that he died trying to find it, But what he left behind were plans of a flying ship, One that he said that would be able to send a ship flying for miles, Although he never fully tested it." Cricket said
"And your plan is to use a 400 year old design of a ship, that may or may not work?" Cray said
"Yes." Cricket said
"That sounds So COOL!" Luffy yelled
"What an idiot!" Ussop and Nami said
"Do you even Understand!?" Nami said
"Understand What?" Luffy said
"Didn't you forget...that we can only stay on this island for one more day before the Log Pose Resets!" Nami said
"Yeah we won't make it in time!, your not a Psychic Old man I doubt you know, but how many days till the next Knock up Stream and the "Cumuloregalis" clouds line up at the same time!?" Ussop said
"Tomorrow afternoon... If your going to you better get ready." Cricket said
TOMMOROW ARE YOU SERIOUS!" Cray yelled
"We can't make it in that time!" Ussop yelled
"Oh, Well if you don't like it just give up." Cricket said turning away from everyone
Ussop was getting a bit angry he then Pointed at Cricket.
"Your Lying! This isn't right, we just met you today! aren't you being "too" nice!?" Ussop yelled
"Now Wait a Minute Ussop Just.." Cray said
"Shut up Cray!...tomorrow just happens to be the perfect chance to go to this Legendary unknown sky island and you'll help prepare our ship and take us there, Thats way to convenient!? What exactly do you take us for!? Plus you're Noland the Liars Descendant we can't trust you!" Ussop yelled
"DINNER IS READY!" Masari and Shoujou yelled while Sanji pushed them out of the way
"Nami-swan Dinner is..." Sanji yelled
Everyone was waiting for Cricket to Respond
Cricket just calmly blew out some smoke from his Ciggerrate and then turned towards everyone
"W-What, are you gonna fight!?" Ussop yelled
"Whenever midday night is confirmed by in Masaris Turf, cumuloregalis clouds appear in the southern skies the next day, and judging bfrom its five per month rate the Knock up Stream will probably be active tomorrow, It'll happen somewhere south of here, its not 100% accurate but theres a good chance it will happen tommorow." Cricket said passing by Ussop making him Nervous
"I'm glad to have met fools like you...Now lets go and have some food , all of you can take it easy at my place for today...comrades" Cricket said walking towards his house
Luffy just chuckled a little.
"Food! hurry Ussop!" Luffy yelled walking towards the house.
"I'll go and get Robin." Cray said
Ussop just went down on his knees, while Nami walked towards him
"It looks like all we can do is try our best to get into the sky, though in the end its only but Luck." Nami said
"Nami, Am I Miserable and Cowardly?" Ussop said
"You Forgot "Stupid" Nami said
"And being a Liar yourself as well." Cray said walking by to get Robin.
Ussop just put his head down.
"I know how you feel Ussop, Now go and Apologize" Nami said
Ussop Quickly got and ran towards Cricket crying
"I'm Sorry, Old guy!" Ussop yelled hugging him.
"What the..Yuck Don't wipe you snot on me!" Cricket yelled
(Later that night)
everyone was still enjoying the Little Party they had going on,
"ha Todays Booze is especially Great!" Cricket said in a Drunk state
"I Don;t normally enjoy fish but this is Really Good!" Cray yelled
"You said it!" Luffy yelled Stuffing his face
"Eat up! the Saury Full course is just getting started." Sanji yelled
AAAHHHHHH" Masari yelled Blowing out fire.
"HAHA Got you with my Tabasco Bomber!" Ussop yelled laughing!
"Why you Long nose!" Masari yelled chasing him around.
Robin was looking through Nolands old Log Book and as she went to the final page Cricket in his drunk state went to her.
"I saw Gold...in the Skulls Right Eye." Cricket said
Everyone then just stopped what they were doing, shocked at what he said
"That tear soaked sentence was the last thing Noland Wrote, and Noland was Executed the same day even after comign to Jaya those words make no Sense .was it referring to the city of gold or was it an allusion of his death!? the blank pages say nothing... So thats why we dive..We have dream!.. on the Sea Floor." Cricket said downing another drink.
"Thats right!" Masari said
"Well Heres to our Dreams then." Cray said holding up a Mug
"TO OUR DREAMS! everyone holding up there mugs
"and Were gonna Fly!" Luffy said eating
"Not if you keep eating like that you won't." Shoujou said
everyone then started Laughing.
...
"The Day I arrived on Jaya May 21st 1122. Upon landing on the Island we heard a strange bird call and the sound of a large bell coming from the forest the sound it gave off resonated far and wide as if it was showing off the prosperity of a city long past We thought we knew after living for a few decades..but experiencing the transience of this civilization that flourished for along time on the open sea left us speechless, The sound of the bell had us stopped in our tracks!" Cricket said reading through Log Book
"Noland was so cool!" Masari yelled
"Wow A Gold Bell!?" Nami said
"It really sounds that you like Noland after all." Cray said
theres Something that I want to show you all." Cricket said going through a Chest. and what he got out of it were three small Golden bells and a bag
"gold bells!" Nami yelled picking one up with sparkles in her eyes.
"Wait? don't tell me these were the "giant" bells he was talking about I mean there big but?" Cray said almost dissapointed
"No these aren't the bells, these are just bell shaped Ingots, we found these three on the Sea floor." Cricket said
"Oh! so there really is a city of gold down there." Luffy said
"They don't prove that, you could find that much gold in any old ruins." Shoujou said
but it does Prove that there was a Civilization in this area. the ingots are made to have standardized weights, meaning they were used for trade" Robin said
"Yes and the strange bird calls mentioned before that...Masari show them" Cricket said
Masari then unwrapped the bag and what was inside was a small gold Statue shaped like a bird.
"Woah this ones huge!" Ussop yelled
thats all of the gold we found." Cricket said
"wow its so pretty!" Nami said
"Wow whoever made this had a knack for detail! I've never seen such good Craftsmenship on a huge piece of gold before." Cray said admiring the work
"the bells and the bird.. do you suppose they were symbols of old Jaya?" Sanji said
"don;t know But I think they were part of some sort of model. its called a south bird and they only exist on this island." Cricket said
"Sailors have long used South birds to...Wait a Minute!?" Cricket said in realization
"OH CRAP!" Masari and Shoujou yelled
WHAT WHAT IS IT!?" Luffy yelled
This is bad you guys go into the southern forest Hurry!" Cricket yelled
"what are you talking about!?" Cray yelled
"All you need to catch this bird its really important!.. Listen the Knock up stream your heading for Tommorow is exactly South of this cape, How are you gooing to get there!?" Cricket yelled
Just sail straight there right?" Luffy said
this is the Grandline! Once your on the open sea theirs no way to get your bearings." Cricket said
"What do you mean? that's why we have a Navigator for!" Cray yelled
"No Cray, He's Right, Were heading for ocean, not an "Island"so we have no Guide to rely on!...So how are we suppose to go straight south!?" nami said
" you use that birds Behavior... some types of animals have accurate internal magnets which allow them to get there bearings." Cricket said
"ahahahahaha, then your lower then an animal, Zoro!" Luffy said laughing
"Like your anyone to Talk!" zoro yelled
"South birds are the greatest of those, no matter how vast an ocean or land is they'll always find there bearings, So without one of these none of you are going anywhere!" Cricket yelled
"AAAHHHHHH Why are you telling us this Now!?" Chopper, Ussop and Luffy yelled
"Quit fussing and Just Go and Get One!" Cricket yelled
WERE ON IT!" Luffy yelled running out along with everyone else.
"You just want us to go in the forest in the middle of the night!?" Ussop said
Don't forget these!?" Cricket yelled throwing a few catchers at them.
"Were gonna get started on your ship...And make sure to get at least one South Bird before Dawn! or the whole thing is shot!" Cricket yelled
(The Southern Forest)
"Oh man, its so dark." Cray said
"Quit holding me." Sanji said pushing Ussop him away
"Its not my fault my hands are moving on there own." Ussop said scared
"Where are these birds Anyway?" Luffy said
"Well Cricket said that make strange noises." Cray said
and that Golden Statue is what they seemingly look like." Sanji said
"Are they really that dumb looking?" zoro said
"and Plus strange noizes is very vague how are we suppose to know what they sound like?" Ussop said
"He said that we would know once head inot the forest." Sanji said
"JEOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
A Weird Call!" They all yelled
"That must be it." Nami said
"At this point we have no other choice." Zoro said
We got three nets lets split into three groups and Search. "Sanji said
"Right!" they all yelled
So everyone split into three groups, Chopper and Cray went with Luffy, Nami and Ussop went with Sanji, and Robin went with Zoro.
...
"Hey guys I found something!" Luffy said looking inside of a tree.
"Is it the Bird?! Cray said
"No its an Atlas!" Luffy yelled grabbing abettle
"an atlas?" Chopper said
"Yeah Atlases and Hercules are the most admired bugs in the world!" Luffy said
"Wow I can't believe you actually caught one I heard they really hard to catch." Cray said
Chopper then looked at a tree and found another one.
"Hey look another Bettle." Chopper said
"I think that one is a Miyama those ones can fly." Cray said
"I want it." Luffy said trying to reach for it only for it to fly away.
"Quick don't let it get away." Luffy said
"Come on you two we need to stay focused and find that bird before..." Cray said
"After it!" Luffy yelled
"Luffy and Chopper just ran to catch the beetle.
"Oh come on, you guys." Cray said running trying to catch up
"Guys wait up!" Cray yelled
As he looked forward he saw Luffy and Chopper running back.
"RUUUUUN!" Luffy yelled passing by Cray.
Run from what? Cray said
WAAAAH"! Chopper yelled
As Cray looked he noticed a swarm of bees coming.
"OH NO NOT BEES! I HATE BEES!" Cray yelled Running along side Luffy and Chopper
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" all three of them yelled
...
Luffy, Chopper and Cray were exhuasted from all that running but before they could catch there breath another Beehive.
"WAAAHHH!" Chopper yelled
"NOT ANOTHER ONE!" Cray yelled
"Whats up with this forest!?" Luffy yelled
All three of them continued to run again chopper looked behind and saw a South bird on top of a tree
JEOOOOOOOOOOO"
"Luffy, Cray it's that bird! he dropped the beehive!" Chopper yelled
JEOOO JEOOOO"
Whats it saying Chopper!?" Cray yelled
"He said: "I'll kill you for invading this forest." Chopper said
...
JEOOOOOOO"
The Trio was now running away from giant Praying Mantises
QUICK DODGE!" Luffy yelled
all of them ducked and jumped away from the slashes that took down a tree.
"These Praying Mantises aren't normal Where are all these things coming from!?"Luffy yelled
"Its the bird. The South Bird is the Bugs Control tower!" chopper yelled
"I thought Birds ate bugs not control them!" Cray yelled
Through the Entire Forest the Straw Hats were having nothing but Trouble as the South birds kept all of them on edge, Later on all of them regrouped.
"No luck we couldn't find a single one." Zoro said
"We saw one but there was no time to get it." Luffy said
"Yeah that stupid Bird did nothing but drop Beehives and giant bugs on us." Cray said exhausted
"All we did was run." Chopper said
"Yeesh Eight people and you get Zilch?! get it together you guys." Ussop said
"Oh shut up, Ussop its not like you did any better." Cray said angry and exhausted.
"I can;t run anymore." Nami said
One of South Birds then flew by to nearby tree
"JEO JEO JEOOOOOOO" the south bird said with a grin.
" "You really think you can catch us? Idiots!"" Chopper said translating
"What it came here just to tell us that!? I'll shoot you good!" Ussop yelled aiming his sling shot at the South bird
suddenly some arms appeared out of the South bird the arms wrapped around it and threw it towards the ground.
"what the?" Ussop said
"All i need was to see one." Robin said folding her arms
"yeah way to go Robin!..who's the idiot now you stupid bird?" Cray yelled looking down at it
JEO JEEEOOOO JEO!" the south bird said
Chopper then went wide eyed.
"What did he say to me!?" Cray yelled
"You don't want to know." Chopper said
...
The Straw Hats were now exiting the forest and heading towards Crickets house.
"Hey Old guy we got the bird!" Luffy yelled
but as soon as they looked they noticed the entire place was Destroyed the Merry was in an even more badder state. and Cricket Masari and Shoujou were in bad shape
"Old Guy!" Luffy yelled
Masari, Shojo." Cray said
"AHHH The Going Merry!" Ussop yelled
"What in the world happened!?" Nami said
Luffy went by Cricket to help him up.
"I'm sorry, there was nothing we could do We're Pathetic.. But there still time to fix up your ship." Cricket said getting up slowly
"Wait old guy tell us what happened first!" Luffy yelled
Luffy!" Nami yelled
What is it?!" Luffy said
" the Gold..its been stolen!" nami yelled
"Nah.. its alright forget about that junk. We need to focus on.." Cricket said
"What do you mean Junk!? it took you ten long excruciating years of diving to find that Gold you can;t just." Ussop yelled
BE QUIET!...it's alright this is our problem.. Listen! if they all work on it the Saruyama Alliance can fix and reinforce your ship no problem I'll have em finish it in time for Morning." Cricket said
"Hey Luffy, look at this," Zoro said pointing at a spray painted image of a smiley face with a line swiping it.
"Its Bellamys Mark." Nami said
"who the hells Bellamy?" cray said
"He was that Jerk that beat Luffy and Zoro up at the Bar!" Nami said
Luffy just adjusted his Straw hat.
"You want help?" Zoro said
No I can Handle it." Luffy said
"No Luffy don't be stupid, we only have a few hours left, you'll never make it in time." Nami said
If I run along the coast, Will i make it to the town by from this afternoon." Luffy said to Robin.
"Yes, you will." Robin said
Luffy then started to walk away.
"where are you going kid, don't be a fool, do you have any idea who your dealing with?" Cricket said
"Just be Quiet Cricket he knows what he's doing." Cray said
Luffy then cracks his Knuckles.
"I'll be back by Morning." Luffy said Running off.
...
while Luffy was away everyone was getting the ship ready. Masari and Shoujous Crew were helping reinforce the ship chopper was quick enough to bandage the three men and they quickly went to work.
"Its amazing even after getting beat up, those three are still working hard as if nothing happened." Ussop said
"I give them Credit for there Determination." Cray Said Painting.
"CRAY WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THE GOING MERRY!" Ussop yelled
"What? I figured since the The Going Merry is getting some new things done with it, I figured it needs a new set of paint coating." Cray said
"The Going Merry is good as it is with mine, It doesn't need your "artistic vision" to it." Ussop said
"Oh I see, Your just Jealous because you think my design for the ship will be better then yours is that it?" Cray said smirking
"That is not at all the case!" Ussop yelled
"Listen I'm the Professional Artist, Your the Amateur, meaning that I out rank you, meaning that my design is ten times better then yours." Cray said with a confident smirk
AMATEUR!? I Guarante mine will be 100 times Better!" Ussop yelled
"Oh yeah well mine will be 1000 times better!" Cray yelled
Both Cray and Ussop started to argue.
...
(A few hours later)
Where is he? its already Morning!? he's 46 Minutes Late were going to miss the Current." Nami yelled
"Do you think he was beaten in town?" Chopper said
"If he did, he'll have hell to pay, even if he makes it back in time!" Nami yelled
HEEEEEEY!"
all of them looked and they saw Luffy running back to them with a huge bag over his back along with something else
"Its him thank goodness." Masari said
"I did it, I found a Hercules Beetle it took me forever to find it." Luffy said
"YOU WASTED TIME JUST TO FIND THAT!" Nami yelled
Luffy looked at the ship and noticed the changes to it, The Figure head now had Chicken Waddles and wings had the Wings of the ship now had a colorful red and orange hue, making it look like flames.
"Whoa Awesome!" Luffy said
"Its the Going Merry Flying Model!" Ussop said
"It looks like it could fly!" Luffy said
"I know they did it for us!" Ussop yelled pointing at the Saruyama Allaince.
"I still don't get why you made the Going Merry look like a chicken though Ussop? Its a good thing I designed those wings, in order to secure "some" Dignity." Cray said
"Yeah, Great idea Cray, what is that suppose to represent anyway? "Going up in flames?" Ussop said
"No of course not, its suppose to represent a Fiery Spirit!" Cray yelled
"Seeing that makes me feel uneasy." Nami said
"I agree, aPigeonn would've been better then a Chicken." Zoro said
"That's not the Main issue here! Your an Idiot!" Nami yelled
"Alright lets set Sail! Ready everyone!?" Ussop yelled
Luffy then put the bag of gold down by Cricket.
"Get on Board already you don't have much time or are you planning on wasting your time to go to sky island?" Cricket said
"Thanks Old Guy." Luffy said smiling
"Its them you should thank" Cricket said pointing at the Saruyama Alliance
"Yeah, thanks you guys you can even have my Hercules Beetle!" Luffy said
"FOR REAL?! YOUR A NICE GUY!" The Alliance yelled out
Anyway lets hurry Get on Board, before were to Late!" Masari yelled
" We'll Lead the way!" Shoujou said
I'm coming!" Luffy yelled jumping onto the Going Merry.
Cricket then just looked at the bag of Gold that Luffy gave back to him.
"SARUYUMA ALLIANCE DON'T SCREW UP! NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS GIVE EVERYTHING YOU GOT FOR THEM!" Cricket yelled out
"YEAH!" The Alliancee yelled
"Its time to set sail!" Nami yelled
"Alright lets go!"
The Going Merry was pulled away from the shore and now setting sail with the SaruYuma Alliance towards the Knock up stream
"Kid! this is where we part ways!" Cricket said
"Yeah!" Luffy said
"Theres one Thing that's a Definite Fact No One in history ever disproved the City of Gold or Sky Island, People might Laugh and call it Foolish logic, but its good enough for me Thats what Romanticism is all about!...and thanks for the gold don't be falling from the sky now y hear?" Cricket said
"Luffy just smiled and chuckled
"See ya Old Guy!" Luffy said
"Thanks for everything Cricket!" Nami yelled
"I'm sure the City of Gold is real, Old Timer!" Ussop yelled
"Never Give up Cricket You'll find it someday!" Cray said
"Old Guy do Overdo things!" Luffy yelled
"Mind your own Business!" Cricket said
...
It took a few hours for the Straw Hats to make it to their destination and as they got closer they got a good look of the compacted clouds that Cricket was Talking about. and they did the waves started to rock all three ships.
"Alright, Now turn your ships to ten o clock that's where the current will be!" Masari said
The Going merry was was getting tossed back in forth by the waves.
"Nami what does the Log Pose point at?" robin said
"Its still pointing up above us." Nami yelled
Suddenly a huge whirlpool appeared out of nowhere.
"AHHHHHHH WHERE DID THAT COME FROM!" Ussop yelled
The Saruyuma Allaince then Launched some rope towards the Straw hat Ship.
"We'll take you to the edge of the Whirlpool after that head for the center!" Masari yelled
Oh no were being sucked in!" Ussop yelled
"Nobody said anything about being sucked in!" Nami yelled
"Don't worry I'll protect you and Robin!" Sanji yelled
"Were Going to Die!. we have to turn back!" ussop yelled
"Just accept it Ussop, Its too Late." Zoro said
"Lets Go sky Island!" Luffy yelled
"Then out of the ocean poped up a huge Sea King Surprising everyone when the whirl Pool Sucked it up.
"Alright you guys the rest is up to you!" Masari yelled
"Right , Thanks for the Lift!" Luffy yelled
The going Merry then hit the Rim of the Whirlpool.
""Lets go back Luffy, we cans till make it, isn't it obvious we'll die? The sky island just a dream within a dream." Ussop said scared
"an Island with a dream within a Dream...I'll regret for the rest of my life if i pass up such a big adventure!" Luffy yelled smiling
"I think he's enjoying this way to much." Cray said
The Going Merry was then falling towards the center of the whirlpool and as they did it suddenly went calm.
"What the hell it just vanished!?" Cray yelled
"That was Big Whirl Pool! What going on!?" Ussop yelled
"its starting...the Whirlpool only disappeared from the surface." Nami said
"You don;t mean?" Ussop said
HOLD IT!"
Everyone turned around and saw another ship heading towards them and it was accompanied by a few people as well
"Hey Zoro Look.
"Its that Guy from the bar." Luffy said
"I Caught up with you Straw Hat Luffy!" the man said
"it that guy from Mock town!" Nami said
Cray took a closer look at the guy.
"Hey Robin isn't that the same guy that pushed me over?" Cray said
yes it is." robin said looking
"I'm here to collect your 100 million Bounty, Prepare yourself" The man yelled
"My Bounty? what do you mean 100 million?" Luffy said
"So you don't know?..theirs a 100 million berri bounty on your head... Pirate Hunter Zoro your worth 60 million and Vandalizer Cray Ola your worth 32 million." The Man said holding up the wanted posters
""Its true! he has new wanted Posters." Ussop said looking through Binoculars
"What hold on how about me!? theres one for me too right!?" Sanji said
"I don;t see one for you Sanji." Ussop said
"I see your Bounties went way up After the Alabasta Incident..but 100 million?" Nami said
"WOOHOO did you hear that you two 100 million!" Luffy said in excitement
"60 million huh? how Disappointing." Zoro said smiling.
"Wow, 32 Million is way better then 7 million." Cray said smiling as well
"Don't be happy about it!" Nami yelled at the Three
"HEY YOU GUYS STAY FOCUSED IT'S COMING!" Shoujou yelled
"everyone hold on tight!" Nami yelled
"The SHip its going up!" Ussop yelled
"Oh man here it comes!" Cray yelled holding tight
The sea started to bubble then the Water erupted shooting towards the sky like a bullet taking the Going Merry with it. the ship was now in a vertical possesion of the stream.
"What the hecks Going on!" Ussop yelled
"The ship is going straight up a pillar of water!" Zoro said
"this is Neat! Alright now we can go into the sky Go Merry!" Luffy yelled
"Lets hoping the plans from a 400 year old crazy dead guy doesn't end up getting us killed!" Cray yelled
The Going Merry then started to float off of the stream.
"Oh no if this keeps up were gonna get sent flying to our doom!" Sanji yelled
"What do you want us to do we can barely do anything even when were holding on!" Ussop yelled
"Whats That!?" Chopper said looking straight ahead
It was the Sea King they earlier and it was plummeting down towards the Ocean
"See that? Its only a matter of time until thats going to happen to us!" Sanji yelled
"Were literally riding an Explosion? what can we possibly do?" Zoro said
as they were going up more pieces of other ship started falling.
"Victims of the Knock up stream!" chopper yelled
"This is it! were all gonna Die!" Ussop yelled
"Everyone Spread the sails Right away!..this is the sea not just a pillar of water! its a rising Current..the wind blowing from below is a rising air current, if were dealing with wind and sea I can navigate it...Who this ships Navigator!?" Nami said smiling
"You are nami-san! all right men do what Nami-san says!" Sanji yelled
"Right!" everyone went to work and opened the sails
"Catch the Starboard wind and pull the helm to Point, Align the ship with the current!" Nami yelled
As they did that the Merry was slowly floating.
"Oh no the ships about to leave the Water!" Chopper yelled
"No We can make it!" Nami yelled
The Going Merry then completely left the water and in a surprising twist the Ship Started to fly upwards in the air
"We're Flying awesome!" Luffy yelled
"Is This For Real!?" Ussop said
"We did it!" Nami yelled
"it looks like Ludovicos wasn't Crazy after all, I can't believe what I'm seeing." Cray said looking upwards
"Nami-san Your Wonderful!" Sanji yelled with heart eyes
"With this wind and Current we can go as high as we want!" Nami yelled
"Hey Nami are we almost there to Sky Island?!" Luffy said
If there is one, it should be on the other side of those Clouds!" Nami yelled
"Above the Clouds...What could be up there!? Lets Plunge through! SKY ISLAND HERE WE COME!" Luffy yelled
This Is it everyone, THE SKYPEIA ARC IS UP NEXT!
Also to answer Martyn I do Plan on doing the Water 7 arc and beyond, And it's probably the saddest Saga I ever seen, but who knows I might add little bits and pieces of What your talkign about but not the whole thing, we'll just have to when we get to that point in the story. Also thank you for commenting as well. :)
