Chapter VII.
Last Time.
Naruto sighed as he sailed the Merry towards a black cloud with Masira and Shougou. "A chicken? Really?" He asked as Masira and Shougou fixed the Merry to withstand the force of the stream And gave Merry wings and a chicken makeover. A whirlpool started to form before they heard a yell.
Looking to their left, they saw the sickly man, the 'Champion' and the man that Luffy argued with at the restaurant on a large raft. Naruto saw another man with them holding a long rifle.
He is a rather thin man of abnormal height, with light brown hair that hangs down to his lower neck. He has a calm appearance. His eyebrows are furrowed in what looks like a saddened expression. The left lens of the black glasses he's wearing is a normal, rectangular eyepiece, but the right side is circular and holds what appears to be a cross hair.
He's wearing a large black hat, protruding out to both sides anand looks like an upturned boat hull. He is wearing a long black cape, under which he has a button-up, pale lavender shirt with loose sleeves, and simple black pants, with a maroon belt with an aqua outline that goes over a small portion of his shirt. He also has black shoes.
"Oh what now?" Naruto asked before the man with the black beard held up three posters. "I've come for your 100,000,000 bouny! The 60,000,000, and 78,000,000 is just icing on the cake!" Nami blinked before Usopp looked through binoculars. "Hey Luffy! Your bounty went up, and Zoro as well as Naruto has one!"
Naruto rolled his neck for a fight as Zoro and Luffy cheered. Naruto coughed for a jump only to slam against the wall as they were shot up into the air. He groaned until Nami hit him, her chest hitting him face first. He pushed her away and stood on the wall as they 'sailed' on the Stream before Nami yelled. "Open the sails!"
Doing that, they picked up speed before hitting the cloud and flew several feet above it before falling on it. "SKY ISLAND HERE WE COME!"
Now.
S.H.C. Clouds.
The S.H.C. panted as they breathed the thin air while the Merry floated on the clouds. "Oh, shit! I didn't think about the thin air." Naruto breathed out as he slowly stood up. "Guys! look at that!" Luffy exclaimed catching his breath looking out at the sea of clouds they're sailing on.
"They're clouds!" Chopper exclaimed as he looked to the 'sea' with the others. "I-It's clouds! Why aren't we falling?!" Nami asked as Luffy crossed his arms. "Boats floats, Clouds float. Same thing." Naruto sighed as Sanji, Zoro, and Chopper chistised Luffy. 'Wow.' Naruto thought with a sweatdrop at Luffy's 'reasoning'.
"OH NO! Usopp's not breathing!" Naruto was pulled from his thoughts as Chopper ran to the still downed Usopp. "He's not?!" Luffy exclaimed running over. "Quick, someone give him mouth to mouth!" Sanji jumped at that with a heart replacing his eye. "Right! I'll give mouth to mouth to Nami!"
'Did I do something in one of those past lives of mine that caused me to be surrounded by perverts?!' Naruto thought as he looked up at the cloudy sky. 'First Kakashi with Ero-sennin. (Pervert Sage.) books. Then Ebisu who was a closet pervert. Then Ero-sennin (Pervert Sage) himself! Now in this world it's Sanji!'
Usopp suddenly woke up before sitting to look around. "AHHH! Where are we?! What's with all these clouds?!" He yelled running to the railing. "It's.. a sea of clouds." Nami said standing near the figurehead. She looked to her Log Pose and saw it was still pointing up. "It's still pointing up."
"So we must still be in the middle of the cloud." Robin said from her spot on the railing. "So wait, we still need to go higher?" Chopper asked Robin who nodded. "That's what the Log Pose is telling us." Naruto looked at the sea as Sanji was arguing with Zoro who called him an idiot.
"Ha-ha-ha!" Naruto blinked as he heard Usopp laugh. Looking to his left, he saw Usopp strike a pose on the railing with his shirt on the deck and the top of his overalls around his waist. "Here I go! Cloud Champion Usopp!" Luffy and Chopper cheered as Usopp put his goggles over his eyes and jumped in the clouds.
Several moments went by as the Crew looked on. "Uhh... He's not coming up." Zoro commented as the others looked down. "You know... It's possible that this ocean may not have a bottom." Robin commened getting the others to look at her with wide eyes. "Baka. (Idiot)! Did that fool just fall through the clouds?!"
Zoro asked as Luffy shot his arm down. "Luffy; stretch out as far as you can!" Robin yelled before Luffy looked to her. "I am! But I can't see where he is!" Luffy replied as Robin crossed her arms in a 'X' over her chest. "Just leave that to me. Ojos Fleur. (Eyes Flower.)" Robin closed her eyes as Luffy's arm was covered in them.
A few moments went by before she gasped. "I see him. Veinte Fleur. (Twenty Flower.)" She said before opening her eyes. "He's safe. Pull him up Luffy." Luffy jumped on the railing and struggled to pull Usopp up. "He shouldn't be heavy." Robin said just as Luffy pulled with all of his strength, and Usopp came up out of the water.
With a large octopus and eel fish. "Holy shit!" Naruto yelled as Zoro jumped up to slice the octopus. The octopus popped like a balloon just as Naruto jumped up with Sanji and attacked the eel. The eel went flat as the head hit the Merry and stayed there as Usopp shivered and shook on the deck.
Everyone panted from the thin air as Sanji looked to the eel. "What do you make of this?" He asked with his foot on the head. "It's the strangest creature I've ever seen. I'm not sure it's even a fish." Naruto looked at what was left of the octopus as Luffy spoke up. "And that octopus was like a balloon."
"How can there be fish up here in the clouds?" Nami asked as Robin looked out to the sea. "You said it yourself, it's a 'sea'." She explained as Chopper looked up to her. Suddenly, Usopp screamed as he picked a flat blue fish with small feathers out of his pants and curled up in a ball. Robin looked at it before picking it up as it flared around.
"Hold on... I think this is one of the Sky Fish Noland talked about in his book. It sounded fantastic at the time. But now that I see it, it looks like they've evolved to survive up here in the clouds." She explained as Zoro crossed his arms. "Evolved? You mean turn all flat and balloony?"
"To make them even lighter. The buoyancy up here must be several times lighter than the oceans down below." She replied as Luffy took the fish. "And grew scale like feathers and carnivore like mouths." Nami said before hearing Luffy eat. She looked to Luffy eating a suited fish.
"HEY! We were still examining that!" Nami yelled as Luffy took a bite. "Sure that wasn't poisonous? I mean I know Luffy would eat a poisonous fish with his appetite." Naruto said as Nami took a bite of it as well. Naruto shook his head before Chopper screamed about another boat being attacked.
"What the hell?!" Naruto yelled looking as a man with tan skin skated towards them. He's wearing a large mask, shield, and a grass skirt. He's wearing what looked like skates with a bend on them, small white wings on his back, and carrying a bazooka.
"Look out!" The man jumped up to them and hit Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro. The man dashed to Naruto who dodged slowly before touching the man's arm. The man jumped up to the mast and looked down, only to see Naruto's gone. "Behind you." The man looked behind him, and saw Naruto who punched him.
The man tried to jump away, but every time he did, Naruto appeared beside or behind him. "That's enough out of you villain!" A man wearing armour, riding a pink polka-dotted bird said attacking the man. After deposing him the knight jumped on to the Merry. The Knight is an old man of average height with long white hair, mustache, and beard, with a dark red shirt, and brown pants, with the visor pulled up.
He has a long dark blue cloak that's yellow on the inside and at the back.
"Oh, great. Now who's this guy?" Nami asked as the man looked to her. "Miss. You may call me the Sky Knight." The Sky Knight introduced himself as the bird squaked 'Pierre'. "What's going on? Who was that guy?" Nami asked before looking to the painting forms of Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro. "And you. Could you be any more useless?"
"Naruto's the only one worth his salt here." Nami finished as Chopper bowed to thank the Knight. "Just my duty. This one is on the house." He said as Luffy panted hard. "It must be because of the thin air." Robin commented as the Knight walked up to the upper deck to the bow.
"You must be Blue Sea People." Nami looked at him in confusion. "Blue Sea People? What's that? And who are you?" The knight sat on the railing before explaining. "Like I said. I'm the Sky Knight. And Blue Sea People is what we call the people who live beneath the clouds. I'm assuming you traveled here from the Blue Sea."
"That's right." Luffy said from his spot on the deck. "That explains it. You've traveled to the White Sea, 7,000m in the air. The White-White Sea, which is where I assume you're traveling is still higher at 10,000m. Ordinary Blue Sea People can't possibly handle it up here." He finished as the trio got up breathing normally.
"Now I'm sure you've got many questions but we have business to discuss. You see, I am a Soldier for hire. The White Sea's can be quite dangerous. There are evil doers like the one we just fought who would like nothing more then to turn you into food for the Skyfish." The Knight said resting his lance on his shoulder.
"For 5 million Extol, I'll protect you." The Crew looked at him for a moment having him wave his free hand. "Now wait a minute! That price is more than reasonable." Naruto walked over with his hands behind his head. "I'm sure it is.. But what the hell is Extol? We use Berries on the Blue Sea."
"You don't know? Surely the taught you the difference at the Summit of High West didn't you? Surely you must have passed an Island or two." The Crew looked at him in shock minus Luffy who had a confused look. "What?" Nami pointed at the Sky Knight before speaking.
"Wait. Are you saying there's another way to get up here that would have had us pass an Island or two? As in there's more than one Sky Island?" She asked as the Knight raised an eyebrow "Don't tell me you came up here by the-!" He was interrupted by Robin.
"We came here on the Knock Up Stream." The Knight gained a shocked look at that. "My word! That monstrous current? So.. There are still souls brave enough to even make the attempt?" Nami hugged Naruto and cried into his chest. "I knew it. So we risked our lives for nothing."
Naruto pats her on the back trying to ignore her chest pressed into his. She suddenly let go and shook Luffy. "Are you happy?! We should have all been killed! If we had only asked around a little more, we could have found a safer way of getting up here!" She yelled as the Knight spoke up.
"Did you lose any of your crew?" Luffy looked back at him before speaking. "No, we all made it." The Knight nodded at that. "You're lucky. If you had gone a different route, you would have lost all but one or two of your crew, that's the gamble." He raised his hand up as he explained.
"Either all of you would have died or lived, that's the way of the Knock Up Stream. Not many are willing to take that risk. Especially these days. If nothing else, you are extraordinary navigators." Usopp with his overall fixed stood up to take the credit. Only to stop as Nami pinched his cheek.
The Knight held up a whistle on as string before speaking. "This is the One Whistle." He threw it down having it land at Nami's feet. "It's yours to use as you see fit." The Knight stood up and turned around. "Blow it and I will come to your aid. Like I said, I normally charge 5 million Extol but this will be my gift to you."
"But we still don't know your name!" The Knight turned to Nami before speaking. "I am Gan Fall. And this is my partner Pierre." Gan Fall pointed to his bird who chirped his name. "Pierre is no ordinary bird. He ate the Uma Uma no Mi (Horse Horse Fruit.) and gained its powers."
Gan Fall explained as Pierre turned into a horse with wings although he kept his bird face and only looked a little like a horse. After Gan Fall left, the Crew started to sail towards what looks like a waterfall. When they got to it, their way was blocked by two darker shaded clouds that was floating on the sea.
"It looks like the clouds are floating. Like icebergs." Sanji said taking a drag from his cigarette. "So what, they're cloudbergs?" Usopp asked leaning against the railing. Luffy stretched his arm out to grab the clouds only for it to bounce off. "It bounced off!" Luffy exclaimed before jumping over and started to bounce on one.
"I guess that explains on how the people don't fall on the islands up here." Naruto said as Luffy continued to bounce as Usopp and Chopper joined him. "Hey! Look for a way to get passed these clouds!" Nami yelled as the trio left. "Hey! Get back here!" Nami yelled as Usopp looked through his goggles.
After a moment, they came back explaining there's different paths leading to a large gate under the waterfall. "A man-made gate under that waterfall?" Sanji asked as Robin looked towards it. "At this point, nothing surprises me." After sailing through the paths, they came up to a large gate that goes into a tunnel.
It's a star shaped tunnel with 'HEAVEN'S GATE' on a red sign near the top. "It is a gate." Zoro said as they stood on the bow minus Naruto who was in the crow's nest. "And it really is a waterfall." Nami said as Naruto jumped down just they went in the tunnel before hearing an elderly voice. Turning to their left, they saw an elderly woman.
She is a short with an extensively wrinkled face. She has purple hair, put into two buns. She has thin arms, and wears a pink tunic, and has small white wings on her back.
She's taking their pictures before looking up as she stopped. "I am Amazon, the Gatekeeper. What brings you here? Sightseeing, warmongering, or other." Nami stepped forward to answer. "I guess sightseeing." Luffy smiled as he held his straw hat. "We want to go to Sky Island. It's just past here right?"
"You must pay the toll of 1 billion extol per person." Nami held her chest as she felt her heart stop at that. "8 billion?!" She yelled before looking up. "Listen! I don't think we have that much! Can we just go through the gate anyway?" Amazon shrugged at that before replying. "Sure."
Naruto blinked at that before large lobster claws came up and held the Merry. 'I have a bad feeling about this.' He thought as they started to sail up the waterfall with the lobster. "HANG ON TIGHT!"
After getting to the top, they saw what looked like a regular island with trees and clouds on it as well as a smaller one above it in the air, as well as a cloud bridge with white twisted edges.
(For a better picture look at ep. 154/Skypiea.)
"Wait. Didn't the sign on the waterfall say Skypiea?" Robin asked as Nami nodded at the question. "Yeah, that is what was written on the map we found as well." Nami explained before they stopped at a beach. Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper ran to the beach as the girls changed clothes as Sanji took his jacket off as did Naruto who also took off his shirt to change into a black one.
Sanji rolled his pant legs up a little and took off his shoes before following after the trio. "OW!" Naruto looked to see Nami being pecked on by the South Board in new clothes. She's wearing a bikini that was designed in a cloud pattern colored in blue, light blue and white. She paired her top with maroon trousers, and barefoot
The bird flew off as Nami held her head. "We forgot about the South Bird." Zoro shrugged at that as he anchored the Merry. "He'll be fine. Birds adapt quickly and there are people living here. This place seems to be floating on that heavy cloud from earlier." Zoro explained before Robin walked out.
She's wearing a yellow sleeveless shirt and purple pants reaching to her calves, with a simple belt around her waist, and purple high-heeled Mary Janes. She's wearing her white ornament on her left arm.
"That means Sky Island floats on a sea of cloud cover. I wonder if it's stationary in the sky or if it moves with the tide?" Nami smirked as she walked to the railing swaying her hips in front of Naruto. "We can sit on this deck all day and pick this apart. But where's the fun in that?" She asked before jumping off to the calf high 'water'.
As the Crew looked around the beach with a gazebo and cloud funiture, they heard a harp. Looking near the ocean, they saw a girl playing a harp on a cloud hill as a fox ran past them to her.
She has blonde hair which she is in two braided pigtails and two antennas sticking out at the top of her head. She's wearing a pink dress with black, flower shaped textures that goes to her thighs. She also has red and pink striped sandals, that are white on the bottom. As well as two small wings on her back.
The fox is solid white with squinted eyes and average sized ears. Her mouth somewhat resembles a snout. Her tail is long compared to her body, and is lighter at the end.
"Heso. (Hello)" She greeted with a smile as Sanji swooned over her. "Su, come here." She started to walk to them. "Are you from the Blue Sea World?" Luffy nodded as he tried to eat a hard green fruit from the tree. "Yes. Is this your home?" He asked as she stopped by them.
"Yes, it sure is. I'd like to welcome you to Sky Island's Angel Beach." She said before seeing Luffy holding fruit. "I'd bet you'd like to drink that right?" Luffy blinked before handing her the fruit. "The top is as hard as steel. You need to cut the underside and drink it." She said turning it over and cut a hole in the center.
She put a long straw in the hole and handed it back to Luffy. "Here." Luffy took a sip as the girl picked up Su. "I'm Conis. And this is Su, a Cloud Fox. Please let me be of service to you." Conis introduced herself before Sanji spoke up. "Yes, your eyes are li-!" He stopped as Nami pulled his ear. "Enough."
"Actually.. We have tons of questions. I hate to bother you, we've never been anywhere like this before." Nami said as Naruto walked around looking at the trees. "Oh that's my father." Naruto looked to see a man riding what looks like a water scooter.
(For a better picture look at Waver One Piece.)
"Heso (Hello) Conis!" He is average height. He is almost bald but has the hair antennae sticking out. He has a strange round beard covering his mouth, and his eyes are closed. His hair antennas and beard are dark brown, along with his eyebrows. He's wearing robes like his daughter, a brown yellow one with a light yellow collar, and a black leaf like design. And a basket on his back.
"Heso (Hello) father!" Conis greeted him as he came closer. "He's riding a Sky Waver." Conis said as she noticed Nami staring at the Waver. He couldn't stop and crashed on the beach as the others looked to him. "Hey Luffy.. Didn't you bring back something like that Waver from the sea bed?"
Nami asked Luffy who was still drinking from his fruit. "Oh yeah, I did didn't I?" Nami looked at Conis' father as he stood up and picked the Waver up. "Then that must be the boat we read about in the Noland the Liar book. A boat that can sail without wind." Naruto shrugged as he stopped by her.
"Not that surprising to me.. In my World we have flying ones.. Although I'm sure there's a way to do that here." He said as the others talked to Conis' father who introduced himself as Pagaya. Nami walked over to the Waver with Naruto following and she bent at the waist to look it over.
Naruto looked away as she examined the Waver, intentionally swaying her hips a little as she did. "I have a question. This boat, doesn't have any sails so how does it propel through the water?" Conis smiled before she spoke up to explain. "Oh, that's right. Your people don't know about dials."
"Dials?" Nami asked looking back just as Luffy jumped on the Waver and stepped on a pedal. And sped off drenching the others before crashing in the water. "Got him." Naruto said jumping over to the prone Luffy who was sinking. Naruto fell in the water and grabbed Luffy before swimming back to the beach.
Naruto sat on the beach as Luffy recovered listening to Pagaya and Conis explain it takes ten years of training to even get decent enough to drive a Sky Waver. As they explained, Naruto looked on slack jawed out to the ocean as Nami skillfully rode the Waver around.
Along with the others before Luffy yelled out. "Nami we're invited to dinner! Now get off that thing and stop being rude!" Sanji kicked him in the head before Pagaya walked ahead to his house up a flight of stairs. Naruto created a clone to follow after as he remained seated. "I'll wait for Nami-chan to get finished."
As they left, Naruto smiled at the look on Nami's face as she sailed back and forth.
The Others.
The Crew, Conis, and Pagaya walked the stairs passing a factory with white blocks of clouds going into it as Pagaya explained everything. "That is our Cloud Quarry Site. It's where our clouds are manufactured and cut to meet our many needs." Zoro looked at the conveyor belt that hauled the blocks before speaking. "I didn't know you could cut clouds."
"You did take the Milky Road on the Great White Sea to get here, didn't you?" Pagaya asked them as Zoro raised an eyebrow. "Milky Road? That the name of that messed up current we took to get here?" Pagaya nodded at that before continuing. "Yes, it's a canal instructed by our engineers using the natural clouds we quarry."
"There are two types of natural clouds. Your Ship traveled on top of Sea Clouds. And the ones we can stand on and build with, are called Island Clouds." Zoro put his hands in his pockets as they continued climbing the stairs. "They're not the clouds we're used too, are they?" He asked making Pagaya nod.
"That has to do with a mineral on the Blue Sea called Kairōseki. (Sea-Prism Stone.)" Robin looked up at that before speaking. "Kairōseki. (Sea-Prism Stone.)? What effect does that have on the clouds?" She asked before Pagaya looked over his shoulder. "Inside Kairōseki. (Sea-Prism Stone.) are Carnelian Particles called Pairoburoin. (Pyrobion.)"
"During volcanic eruptions, these particles gain moisture and ascend up here in the sky. Our clouds are formed based on the density of the moisture." Luffy and Usopp jumped from the clouds and nodded. "Of course I knew that." Naruto facepalmed as Sanji bereted them.
"In all actuality.. There are three types counting the ones we make." Pagaya finished as they went inside his house. Sanji followed him into the kitchen as the others sat on cloud couches in the living room. "I was wondering. Could you explain more about these dials?" Robin asked as she sat beside Naruto.
"Of course.. It's a little complex... I don't know where to begin." Conis replied before walking to a desk by the open door to a deck. She picked up a large spiral sea shell and handed it to Luffy.
(For a better picture type Dial One Piece.)
"It's just a sea shell." Conis smiled at that. "Yes It looks like it. But speak into it." Luffy brought it to his mouth and spike into it. "Usopp stinks." Conis brought a hand up and pointed at the top of the dial. "OK now press the dial at the apex of the shell." Luffy looked confused at that before Usopp pointed to the point of the shell.
"She means there, the top of the shell." Usopp said before pressing the top revealing it's a button. "Usopp Stinks." The dial replayed shocking the duo. "That's a neat trick. So it replays whatever sounds it hears?" Zoro asked with his arms on the back of the couch. "Yes, we call this a Tone Dial."
"It's a shell from the White-White Sea that records and replays whatever it hears." She went on to explain that the shells are on the shallow parts of the sea and there are different ones for different jobs. "This is a Breath Dial." Conis picked up a different dial and it blew air. "We have ones that create heat, light, taste, and records pictures."
Naruto looked up before standing. "Oyabun. (Boss.) just joined Nami." The others looked at him before Chopper spoke. "How do you know that?" Naruto looked to him and explained. "He created another clone and had it dispel.. Anything a clone like me finds out after being created, as soon as we dispel, the original will get our memories of the information."
Naruto created another clone and dispelled it so the original Naruto will know what Conis told them. After eating, Sanji looked out to see Nami wasn't visible anymore causing Conis and Pagaya to gain a worried look. "What's wrong?" Naruto asked sitting down having Conis sigh.
"There's a part of the island called Upper Yard. No one is allowed to set foot on there.. I'm afraid Nami may have gone there... It's not far from here and it's a short ride on the Waver to get to it." Zoro raised an eyebrow at that before speaking. "Why's that?" Conis looked to them before replying.
"It's where kami (God) lives." She looked to each as Naruto raised an eyebrow. 'Either that person is delusional or that's what they call their leader here.' Naruto thought looking up to the ceiling as she explained his name is Enel and he can see everywhere in Skypiea.
Nami And Naruto.
Naruto was riding with Nami on the Waver before she saw something up ahead. She sped to it and saw land from Earth with very large trees. "What the hell? How did this get here?" Naruto asked as he held Nami's waist. "Yeah.." Nami replied looking up at the trees. "Well Gan Fall did say there's a safe way of getting up here.. Maybe they bring trees up here with dirt."
"Or maybe it came up here hundreds of years ago by some means." Naruto finished before hearing a voice talk about finding treasure. They slowly sailed around a bend to see a old boat with a bird sitting on a Tone Dial. "Oh, that must be one of those Tone Dial Conis is explaining to the others."
"It's like a Black Den-Den Mushi down below." Naruto explained before they heard a yell. Looking up, they saw the tree leaves moves as birds flew away. They heard several voices before following them to a clearing and saw a group of four men gang up on another man.
The First is a tall, bald, muscular, and bearded man. he has a pair of small wing sprouting from his back. He's wearing a pair of sunglasses with point-like extensions on both sides. His right arm is covered with tattoos; the one on his wrist, resembles a bracelet. His attire consists of a dark-green A-shirt, loose grey pants with many pockets and what look like zips under his knees.
A long and flowing white sash around his waist, and dark leather boots with bandages around the soles. He has a massive sword with an extra-large hilt on his back.
Beside him is a large, pale yellow dog.
The next man is a round-shaped man with fair skin and long, dark red hair. He is clad in a white, full-body jumpsuit, which has a vertical line of golden rings that run from front to back, an orange hat similar in style to a Cappello Romano, orange gloves, shoes, and large, yellow sunglasses that completely obscure his eyes. In addition, he carries a large, striped cane on his back.
The next man is a tall, dark-skinned man. He has an unusual hairstyle, with a row of upward-pointing tufts or rasta-styled dreadlocks from ear to ear. He has a pair of wings on his back.
He's wearing a matching purple jacket and pants, black gloves and shoes, a pink shirt, and a blue tie-like scarf around his neck. He has a large, white tissue belt around his waist with a red circle in his center.
The final man has a thin, pointed mustache that splits into two parts; on his head there is an aviator hat decorated with wings, and a pair of goggles on the front. His attire is composed of an orange fur-lined jacket, with brown swollen sleeves decorated by beige spots; loose matching orange pants held up by a belt, fur-lined gloves and boots, and a purple scarf around his neck.
He's dark haired, and on his back there is a pair of wings. He has a jousting lance and is riding a giant bird
The bird is a purple feathered bird with gigantic wings, on its enormous body. It has red feathers around its neck. Its head is white, has a sharpened beak and the eyes are yellow colored. Its tail is further purple colored with lighter extensions to it. The claws underneath its legs are white, with sharp black nails.
"What the hell is going on?" Nami asked as the group argued on who would kill the man. Suddenly, Naruto stiffen as he heard something. Looking back behind them, they saw the man that attacked them earlier aiming his bazooka towards them. and shot it having the missile fly past them.
BOOM!
And hit the men with the explosion. Looking up, they saw the man that was being attacked begging for help off of the island. "But we're already over the limit." Nami said before the man picked up a sword. And was hit with a large pillar of lightning, killing him. "Well.. That escalated quickly." Naruto said before another smaller one attacked the man behind them.
The man sped away having Nami and Naruto hide along the edge listening to the four men talk about them and their ship being here illegally. "The others are in trouble with the police force here. I'll go on ahead while you catch up." Naruto said before flashing away.
The Other's; Beach.
Naruto flashed beside Robin as he saw a group of men wearing characteristic uniform that consists of light-purple T-shirts, blue with white cloud-shaped spots wide trousers, and white berets with letters 'WB' on them.
Usopp looked to Naruto and explained that they would need eight million berries to pay their fines. "Oh the currency difference. We should have asked about that at the gate.. We may have had enough on the ship." Naruto looked at the Captain who has a scar on his left cheek before hearing Nami drive to them.
"Hey Nami! We need seven million berries to pay off our fines!" Usopp yelled missing Nami's eyes shadowing at that. She sped up and hit the Captain of the squad before blinking. "Whoops.. I was so worked up I forgot to break." She said before taking the Waver to Pagaya and Conis.
"We just got in even more trouble." Zoro said with his arm crossed. "Yeah; I'm starting to think almost all police forces are crooked." Naruto commented looking as Nami lied to the other men that it was an accident with it being her first time on a Waver. Naruto blinked as he saw them carry the Captain on their backs as they crawled.
"Why the hell are they crawling? Wouldn't it be faster to walk?" He asked as Nami ran to them "We need to leave now!" They started to get the Merry ready to sail before seeing The White Berets with Conis and Pagaya. Nami tried to get Luffy on board but only exceeded in stretching his arm before the White Berets attacked with bow and arrows.
Cloud came out of the head of the arrows creating several paths before Naruto jumped over and picked two black kunai out of his pouch as the White Berets attacked by skating on the clouds with dials on their shoes. The White Berets picked up knives only for Naruto to slice them apart before stopping at another group.
Everyone gasped as they felt malice in the air. The White Berets eyes widen in shock as Naruto's eyes became red, and his pupils became slitted. His whiskers darkened as his canines grew before they saw his shadow grow and take the form of a nine tailed fox. Naruto disappeared and reappeared behind the White Berets having them fall to the ground.
"You've done it now criminals!" Naruto, Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro looked over their shoulders at the Captain of the White Berets who was in the forest bleeding. "Out of all of the Law Officials, we White Berets are the most lenient! However, they are not congratulations. You are now considered 2nd Degree Criminals."
"You can try to cry for mercy-!" He stopped as Naruto laughed. "Man I can't believe people keep confusing me for this guy who gives a shit! I'm wanted back on the Blue Sea what difference does it matter up here?!" After talking on how to get back home, Conis told them the only way at the moment was on Cloud End.
They started to get the Merry ready before Luffy ran to Pagaya. "Hey can we take the leftovers?" Pagaya nodded having Luffy walk with Sanji, and Usopp following. Naruto started helping the others with the Merry.
Later; Merry.
Naruto was tying ropes as Conis left after telling them of a current that'll take them to the White-White Sea quicker before walking to the mast that has metal around it before the Merry shook. Suddenly, they started sailing away from the shore at high speed. "What the hell?!" Naruto yelled using chakra to stay steady on the deck.
The Merry was lifted up and they saw they were on a large shrimp before Zoro jumped down and attacked but did no damage to its shell. "Zoro! We're being followed by more fish! We'll just need to ride this out!" Naruto yelled seeing two eel like fish follow them from behind.
The Others; Beach. (This will be canon so feel free to skip it.)
Luffy, Sanji, and Usopp walked down the steps after getting supplies and a change of clothes. Luffy just has a black wristband around his left wrist with a white bangle over it.
Sanji is wearing a pink dotted shirt with black knee-length pants with slippers.
Usopp has a murky green shirt and a white bandanna.
As they talked on how to get to where their Merry went, Conis came and offered to take them to a port that will lead them straight to it. As they walked, they noticed everyone give them a wide berth as they went to the docks. They stopped at a small three person boat shaped like a crow.
Luffy looked to Conis before speaking. "You've been trembling ever since we've left. Are you alright." Her eyes widened in shock before he continued. "You could have told us. We could have come here on our own." Sanji looked to see the people walking away from them before Conis fell to her knees.
She cried as she apologize because she had to take them to Upper Yard to die because of a law before Luffy grabbed her. "WHAT?! Then why tell us?! Now you're in even more trouble!" He yelled before a bright light shone and a pillar of lightning hit where they were sitting.
The dust cleared showing the S.H.C. were all right as Gan Fall was riding Pierre with Conis laying on his back. "She'll be alright with me. I'll watch over her. Now that you've seen Enel's power.. What will you do?" Luffy fixed his hat before speaking. "The same thing from the start.. Save our nakama's. (Friends.)"
Gan Fall flew off as the trio got in the Crow and sailed off through a gate with '2' on it. Luffy steered the ship as they talked about having to go through an ordeal to save the others who was taken to an alter. They went down a hill before Usopp pointed ahead. "Guys! Where did that huge forest come from?!"
He asked pointing to a rather large forest in front of them. "Is that the Upper Yard?" Sanji asked in disbelief. They went through the entrance with several statues and cattle skulls beside them as it got darker from the trees hiding the sunlight. They passed several wrecked ships and saw large birds fly above them having Usopp freak out.
Suddenly a large axe swung at them barely missing them before others came down as well. Usopp, Luffy, and Sanji used oars to have the Crow sail faster dodging the blades. "PADDLE LIKE CRAZY!" Luffy yelled before stopping and jumped to the back. "Gomu Gomu no.. Bazuka. (Gum Gum Bazooka.)"
Luffy hits the water having them fly in the air dodging the last blade. Only for spears to shoot at them with one hitting the deck. "Spears?!" Luffy grabbed two, twist his body before spinning hitting all the spears before they got past them. A flying bladed disk flew at them having them scream.
The Going Merry.
Naruto put on a black sleeveless shirt as he walked out of the kitchen and noticed Nami was now wearing a yellow T-shirt.
He looked to see they were on a giant altar in the forest surrounded by water. Naruto looked to see shadows swimming around them before seeing Zoro with goggles on his neck. "Are you telling me we're all going to die?!" Naruto looked to see Chopper fall of the railing and down the steps to the sea.
Robin created two hand to catch him at the bottom as a dark blue shark jumped out. Only to get sliced by Zoro who also fell in the water. A few moments went by and they saw Zoro jumped out of the water uppercutting a fish. 'What kind of swordsman uses his fists instead of his swords?' Naruto thought with a sweatdropped.
Nami threw Zoro a blue sleeveless shirt to switch with his wet one as they talked about finding a way off. Zoro looked to see a large dent in the hull. "Damn. Can't leave with the hull like that." Zoro said fixing his shirt. "Hey Chopper. Find a way to fix the ship." Chopper looked at Zoro with a shocked look.
"I'll help." Naruto said creating a clone who started walking to the storage area in the bottom. Naruto watched as Zoro looked for a way to the forest to scout before getting a backpack and went up to the Crow's Nest. Zoro started walking on the sail followed by Robin who also had a pack on as well as a white cowboy hat.
Nami slumped before following after as Zoro used a vine to swing over to the forest followed by the girls. "Nami! Throw that tri pronged kunai if you need me!" Naruto yelled as several more clones worked on the Merry before the others left. "I wish I could go." Naruto looked down at Chopper before speaking.
"The Merry needs to be protected.. These Priests of Enel could attack her if we're not here."
Sanji, Usopp, And Luffy.
The trio sailed to a large stone face with four tunnels, each had kanji above them. "Ordeal of Iron, Ordeal of Swamp. Ordeal of String, and Ordeal of Spheres." Usopp read each one off. "That must be those Ordeals we were told of.. I guess we can choose which one to take." Sanji said as Usopp gulped. "But which one?"
"Let's go with Spheres." Luffy said pointing to the one on the far right. "But why Spheres?" Usopp asked looking back at Luffy. "Sphere's are like balls, right? Sounds like fun." Usopp deadpanned at that before speaking. "That's your reasoning? They're ordeals, they're not supposed to be fun."
"Although, I don't disagree with you. Sphere's is the one that sounds less dangerous." Usopp turned to it after debuting on the others and went through a dark tunnel. "Oh! Maybe this is like one of those games. Where if you pick the right door, you get a prize." Luffy said with a grin having Usopp look over his shoulder.
"Why would you bring this up now?!" Usopp yelled as Luffy grinned. "And if you pick the wrong one you... Fall off the island." Usopp gained a tick mark at that before yelling. "Why would you say that?!" Sanji sighed as he had a cigarette in his mouth. "You both are being bakas. (Idiots.)" He said as they made it to the other end.
"Nothing like that is gonna..." He he trailed off as the light revealed a waterfall leading to a bottom set of clouds as they drifted on the air. "AAAHHH!" They screamed as they fell down into the clouds. And back on the river. Usopp hyperventilated as Sanji started kicking Luffy in the head as he laughed.
They continued down the river as Sanji steered the Crow while smoking a new cigarette. "Where are we now?" Sanji asked as Luffy held onto his straw hat. "The forest.. But with balls." He said as they looked to see large white balls floating around them in the forest. As well as multiple paths going up into the trees.
They started sailing in the trees, missing Satori sitting on a ball above them. Luffy and Usopp started hitting a ball back and forth before a large green snake popped out of it and lunged at Usopp. Usopp ducked as he screamed before Luffy kicks it away from them.
Sanji kicked at another, only for his foot to go several inches inside and gently push the ball away.
BOOM!
The ball exploded leaving the trio singed. "For crying out loud! What's with these things?!" Usopp asked before hearing a laugh. "Ho, ho-hoo! Silly children. These are Surprise Clouds." The trio looked up to see Satori sitting on a ball as he drifted closer to them. "You never know what's coming out of them."
"I'm so glad you picked my challenge. The Ordeal of Spheres!" They sweatdropped as they looked up to Satori who started to dance on top of the ball. "You'll need to beat me if you plan on going any further, and I really don't see that happening." He jumped down to them as Luffy twirled his arm around.
"Oh, you're going to stretch?" Luffy faulted before throwing a punch. "Gomu Gomu no.. Pistoru. (Gum Gum Pistol.)" Satori leaned to the left to dodge before appearing in front of Luffy with his hand in front of Luffy's face. "Inpakuto. (Impact)"
Luffy was suddenly sent flying away from a force before hitting a tree and cracked it as he made an imprint of his body. Sanji and Usopp looked on in shock before Sanji lunged at Satori. "You're going to kick." Sanji kicked as Satori dodged out of the way. "Only the most well trained are granted the ability of.. Mantra. (Mind Rope.)"
Satori attacked Sanji with an opened palm sending him flying down to Luffy who fell to the ground. Satori attacked Usopp from behind sending him flying as well before laughing. "The shock destroys the body from the inside out." Luffy slowly sat up as he recovered from the attack.
"Sanji.. Usopp." He groaned picking his hat up as the others sat up as well. "Ho, Hoo! My name is Satori one of the four Priests of the mighty Enel who watches Upper Yard and see the judgement of criminals like yourself." Satori introduced himself as he bounced on the Crow.
He turned the row on and had it sail in the forest. "Get to your boat before it reaches the exit, and you'll pass my ordeal." Satori jumped on another ball and danced on it as the trio looked at their boat. "The Ordeal of Spheres. There's only a 10% survival rate, good luck!" Satori finish with a laugh before the others dashed towards the Crow.
Luffy stayed to distract Satori with a smirk. Luffy stretched his left arm up and grabbed a limb before throwing his right one at Satori. "Same move as before." Satori dodged the attack before grabbing Luffy's outstretched arm. And spun around twirling Luffy with him. Satori had Luffy hit a tree head first before letting him go.
Luffy flipped and wrapped his legs around a limb before throwing his arm out past Satori. "Gomu Gomu no.. Muchi. (Gum Gum Whip.)" Satori jumped over Luffy's leg as he went past before Luffy attacked with another kick. Satori grabbed his leg before Luffy shot forward. And was hit with Satori's palm.
Luffy was sent flying into a tree and Satori dashed over and had a force attack him several times in the face. Luffy's head was sent inside the trunk and he struggled to pull his head out as Satori looked on in amusement. Satori ran towards Usopp and Sanji before kicking a ball at Sanji as he was climbing a tree to jump on the Crow.
"Sanji look out!" Usopp yelled as the ball bounced off two more and was heading towards Usopp who was on a limb. "USOPP!" Usopp leaned back while letting go of the limb. He cried as the ball stopped above him and hit his nose. Only for a Daisy flower to pop out on the top.
"It was a dud." Satori said looking at the ball before Luffy ran to him along the trees. "Gomu Gomu no.. Gataringu. (Gum Gum Gatling.)" Luffy attacked with a barrage of punches only for Satori to easily dodge as Luffy hit multiple balls instead. "Luffy, use your head! You're only making it worse!" Sanji yelled as the balls bounced around.
"Take cover!" Sanji yelled as Satori watched doing a handstand. Multiple weapons and animals came out of the balls as the trio dodged the attacks. Usopp put on a red belt and climbed onto a limb. "Got an idea?" Sanji asked from his limb. Usopp shot a grappling hook to another limb and started to swing towards the Crow.
"Usoppu Aāaaā. (Usopp AAaaaaAAA)" He swung right past the Crow as he tried to undo the belt. "Baka! (Idiot) Why didn't you unhook?!" Sanji yelled as Usopp continued to struggle. A few minutes later, Sanji beat Luffy and Usopp to get them back on track before deciding on taking out Satori first before getting the Crow.
Satori dropped behind Sanji and hit him as he turned around sending him into the tree beside them. "SANJI!"
Zoro, Nami, And Robin.
Zoro pulled Nami from the shore as a small shark jumped at her. Robin looked down before speaking. "I've just noticed something.. This is dirt. How did it get up here? All the other Islands are clouds." Zoro tapped the ground with his boot. "Yeah, it's not fluffy." Nami grabbed a handful of the dirt before letting it drop.
"Yeah; I noticed it when I got here earlier. Sky Islands are made of clouds. It's feels like it's been a year since I've seen dirt. So why is this island different from the others?" She asked as Robin looked down. "I don't know. But it can be the reason why this place is so sacred." She replied before standing from her kneeling position.
Later, they continued walking through the forest as they talked about trying to go to the other side. "No! I'm not getting attacked again!" Nami yelled before hearing birds fly away. Suddenly, an alligator dropped from a river above them and lunged at Nami. Zoro punched him away as Robin held his mouth shut.
The Going Merry.
Naruto stopped working on the mast as he looked over his shoulder. And saw Shura flying Fuza before turning to face the man. "Who in the hell are you?" Naruto asked walking to the railing as Shura smirked. "The person who has the pleasure of killing you." Naruto just raised an eyebrow before speaking.
"I'd like to see you try. Now why don't you do the smart thing and just leave." Naruto said before getting into a stance.
