"Huff huff huff~~"

"This thing is really heavy,"

"No no no, as long as I think it's gold, I'm filled with strength!"

...You lazy bum, what are you so excited about~~~ Roman glanced at Nami, who insisted on 'lifting' the Golden Bell. Rather than lifting, she seemed more like she was trying to bite off a piece of it. Roman signaled with his eyes:We've already taken two of their pillars, that's enough~~~Gold, huh? Who would think there's too much gold~~Stop it~

Under the huge Golden Bell's base, the Straw Hat crew and the Shandian warriors carried this massive structure forward. Fortunately, they were all strong enough to lift several tons. Luffy, Zoro, and Roman were all powerhouses, and together they moved the enormous Shandora Golden Bell.

"Let's place this structure in the underground ruins of Shandora city."

After Roman explained the power of the 'Four Emperors' and the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea,' the wise chief and Gan Fall both agreed to hide the Golden Bell. Although Sky Island was isolated, they had some understanding of the Blue Sea's strong individuals. If those guys got interested, Sky Island's future would be bleak.

As for how to explain the previous bell sound to the ordinary people?

Divine blessing~~~ The great warrior's spirit~~~

Any excuse would do, as long as it made the ordinary people forget about it. Sometimes the truth isn't important; what's important is how to let ordinary people live peaceful lives.

"Let's leave it here, and we'll seal this place later."

After huffing and puffing to move the giant Golden Bell into the ruins of Shandora's temple, everyone was exhausted and lay on the ground. After all, the massive Golden Bell, including its base, weighed tens of tons. Moving it so quickly was thanks to the Straw Hat crew's skills.

"Is this... a Poneglyph?"

"The thing our ancestors swore to protect."

"Unfortunately, we can't understand it. Maybe it says something good."

Several Shandian warriors sighed as they looked at the Golden Bell's base, while the Straw Hat crew, except for Robin, had no interest in the unknown text.

"Bury the true meaning in your heart, and keep silent."

"We are the ones who write history, accompanied by the bell's chimes."

?

"Hey, Robin, do you know what it says?"

"That's amazing~~"

"Can you... understand this text..."

Facing the old chief's amazement, Nico Robin stepped forward and seriously read the inscription on the base.

"This... records the location of an ancient weapon called 'Poseidon.'"

Another ancient weapon, but facing something countless ambitious people dreamed of, Nico Robin only lowered her eyes in disappointment.

She was searching for the true 'Poneglyph,' not some destructive power.

Roman glanced at Luffy, who was sticking out his tongue. That ancient weapon 'Poseidon' was just the mermaid princess 'Shirahoshi' who could control giant Sea Kings. In front of Luffy, the true 'King of the Sea,' wouldn't she fall in minutes?

So, how did Joy Boy, who had 'Uranus,' 'Poseidon,' 'Pluton,' and lunar technology, lose to the World Government 800 years ago? Roman couldn't imagine it~~"Wait, there's more text here."

Wyper swept away the vines under the pedestal, revealing a line of small characters.

"I came here to bring this inscription to the ends of the world. — Pirate King: Gol D. Roger."

!

"What? The Pirate King—"

Swish,

In an instant, a long neck stretched over, and then:"What, I can't understand it at all~~"

Nonsense, if even you could understand it, the World Government might as well collectively commit seppuku.

"From the looks of it,"

Roman rubbed his chin and gave the intellectual beauty Nico Robin a 'you know' look. Sure enough, Robin continued to explain:

"It seems that there are two types of Poneglyphs."

"One type is the 'information-recording stone tablet', and the other is the 'location-hinting stone tablet'."

"...The ends of the world, the Pirate King's words, could it be!" Robin was shocked by a possibility, "The real Poneglyph is... Raftel?"

"What? ONE PIECE!"

Luffy's head stretched over again, this was his dream after all.

"Robin, you also want to find ONE PIECE?"

"No," Robin waved her hand, "I want to find the history located at Raftel—"

"Hahaha, isn't that the same thing!"

"It's decided, we'll set off immediately~~"

---Having recovered from their injuries and dealt with the necessary matters, it was time for the Straw Hat crew to embark on their adventure again. But before that:Crack,Opening the mouth of the sleeping 'Lord of the Sky', Luffy led everyone into the snake's belly. Then:"Wow, so much gold~~"

Usopp was ecstatic.

"It's all real, what did this snake grow up eating?"

Sanji was puzzled.

"So beautiful, just like what we saw at Uncle Mont Blanc's house."

Chopper was also very happy.

But:

??

"Roman aside, Nami, why aren't you excited at all?"

"Eh? Eh, this, that..."

Picking up a crown, Nami put on a face of 'surprise', "Such valuable gold jewelry~~"

So fake! x6

————————"Hahaha, we're rich."

After bidding farewell to the people of Shandia and Angel Island, they returned to the Going Merry. Looking at the deck full of various golden antiques, Luffy made a big circle with his hands towards the sky.

"I want to buy a super, super, super big bronze statue to put on the ship."

Going Merry: Please spare me.

"Ridiculous, what do you need that for?" Usopp finally had the money to fulfill his primary job, "Buy cannons, ten of them!"

Heaven knows, this sniper hadn't seriously fired a few shots.

"I want a 'locked' refrigerator,"

Why did the food in the fridge frequently disappear? Why were there screams from the kitchen at midnight? Was it a moral decline or a distortion of human nature? Stay tuned for Chef Sanji teaching you how to prevent fire, theft, and Luffy..."Wine."

Zoro was straightforward.

"And me, and me, I want to buy medical books from other countries."

Faced with everyone's requests, Nami, as the 'financial manager', patted her forehead.

"Wait, wait!"

"This is Sky Island, what are you planning to buy?"

"Wait until we get back to the Grand Line, you can buy whatever you want."

"Alright, everyone."

Riding on a Waver, the blonde girl Conis pointed to an archway ahead, "We'll take you this far. From here, you can reach the Blue Sea."

"Just sail straight ahead."

"Okay, —Roman."

"Got it," Luffy was dancing with Usopp, both covered in gold. Following Nami's order, Roman turned the ship's wheel and sped ahead, then:"Everyone be careful, we're going to descend!"

?

"Descend?" x7Sky—

Huh?

The Going Merry sailed out of a sea of clouds into:A blue sky with white clouds.

In other words, they had left the range of the cumulonimbus clouds and entered the 'normal' sky. Since it was the normal sky, of course, they started to fall!

The Straw Hat crew:The Going Merry:Their eyes almost popped out! Free-falling from ten thousand meters high—"Beep beep~~"

"Go, Sky Island specialty 'Octopus Balloon'!"

As the blonde girl Conis blew the whistle, a giant octopus emerged from the sea of clouds, its tentacles wrapping around the Golden Merry, and its huge head filled with gas, slowing the ship's descent.

"Is this... a hot air balloon?"

"So cool~~"

"Really fun!"

"Remember to visit us on Sky Island again~~~"

With the farewell from the blonde girl Conis—The Going Merry slowly descended, and the Straw Hat crew's adventure continued!
