One Piece: Fist of the World.

Chapter 169 Sky Island, Declaration of War

Time passed slowly, and with the help of the Saruyama United Army, Gray completed the transformation of the Polaris.

Originally, according to the idea of ​​the Saruyama Alliance, it would be enough to just add two wings to the Polaris, but after Gray looked at their design plan, he immediately rejected it.

Even for temporary use, this design is ugly.

So Gray combined the proposals they gave and, with the help of the Saruyama United Army, modified the Polaris. Although it also had wings added, it looked much better than the original design.

After further investigation by Kulikai and his team, they came to an accurate conclusion:

At noon today, a strong current will erupt to the east of Gaya Island!
"All necessary preparations have been made, and the rest depends on luck!"

Kulikai stood on the shore, holding a bottle of wine and looking at the slowly rising sun.

A hint of anticipation arose in his heart.

Was it true that the Golden City was transported to the Sky Island by the surging ocean current?

"If it's about luck, we will never lose."

A smile appeared on Rhodes' face.

Bakara has already set out with Bonis for the town of Magic Valley on the west coast.

"As expected of Tyrant Fist, even something as illusory as fate is so confident."

Kulikai tilted his head back and drank all the wine in the bottle, then tugged at his equipment.

"Let me check it one last time!"

After saying this, Kulikai jumped into the sea and dived to the bottom of the sea with other members of the Saruyama Alliance Army to conduct another survey to determine the time and location of the ocean current outbreak.

"That's too much. He just had surgery."

Luo looked at Kulikai who jumped into the sea and frowned slightly.

"That's a man's promise!"

Rhodes patted Luo on the shoulder.

"Is everything else ready?"

“There’s not a lot to prepare.”

Luo glanced at the Polaris.

Long wings grew on both sides of the Polaris. With Gray's technology, the wings were perfectly integrated with the hull, without any noticeable abruptness.

"Just wait until Bakara comes back."

···
Magic Valley Town

Bakara and Bonis walked into the town one after another.

"It's that woman!"

"Raza was crippled by her punch, and now the pirate group has been disbanded, and she was abandoned on the coast."

"Is this true? He only threw one punch? That guy has a bounty of 4200 million berries!"

"···"

As soon as Bakara stepped into the town, someone recognized her and there was a whisper around.

Mogu Town is, after all, just a small town, and the town is basically inhabited by pirates. They are all quite familiar with each other's situations. What happened in the tavern two days ago is known to everyone.

"Really? Why are you avoiding me like a tiger?"

Bakara stood on the street. With her as the center, there was no one within a radius of ten meters. Not only that, as she walked, this uninhabited area also moved forward.

"If no one comes near, my ability won't work."

Bakara glanced at Bonis who was following beside her.

"Or you can arrest all these people."

Dazbonis glanced at the crowd that was avoiding them, then glanced at Bakara.

"Can your ability work on someone who is unconscious?"

"of course can!"

Bakara had a charming smile on her face.

It’s really nice to be able to complete the task without any effort.

"I see."

Bonis nodded slightly, and the next moment, he turned into a black shadow and rushed into the crowd at a speed that no one had time to react.

Bang!
Boom! !

"Ahhh!!"

Accompanied by various sounds, human figures flew in front of Bakara and soon formed a mountain of people.

"Oh my, this is really efficient~"

Bakara stretched out her hand and brushed across the pile of people in front of her. With her ability, all the "luck" of everyone was absorbed by her.

"Is it enough?"

Bonis walked back to Bakara, his breath not disordered at all.

"enough."

Bakara clapped her hands in satisfaction. She could feel that the "luck" she had absorbed had reached its limit. This efficiency was much higher than if she had searched for them one by one herself.

"Let's go back."

The two turned around.

"and many more!"

A voice suddenly sounded from behind. Bakara turned around and saw someone who looked slightly familiar.

"You guys also want to go to Sky Island, right?"

Bart looked at the two people in front of him and mustered up the courage to ask.

Whether it was what happened in the tavern the past two days or what he saw and heard just now, all of them made Bart clearly realize that this group of people were on a completely different level from them.

And such a person is also asking for information about Sky Island, does that mean...
"Sky Island, it really exists!"

"Is that what you want to ask?"

Bakara looked at Bart. She had already remembered that the other party was the one who was also asking about the news of Sky Island when they went to the tavern before.

"Of course, Sky Island exists!"

After leaving a word, Bakara turned around and walked towards the east coast with Bonis.

With her current good luck, she will surely be able to reach Sky Island successfully without any trouble!
···
On the sea, the ships of the Ape Pirates and the Gorilla Pirates followed the Polaris on the left and right.

"This is where the ocean current we detected broke out!"

The ape stood on the boat and spoke loudly to Rhodes and the others.

"According to the old man's calculations, in just half an hour, a very strong current will erupt here and send you all straight to the sky!"

"We will leave first, but we will watch you from a distance until we see you fly into the sky."

The ape and gorilla pirates slowly left, leaving only the Polaris behind.

"How will it fly into the sky?"

Bonnie lay on the big bear's shoulder and looked around curiously.

No matter how you look at it, this is just an ordinary sea surface. Will there really be waves rising up and sending them to the sky island?

"Hey, Rod, are you really okay?"

Nia felt uneasy.

She really wanted to go to Sky Island to see it all, but when she thought about it carefully, flying into the sky on the ocean current was a little too bizarre.

"No problem. As long as there is a current, we can fly up with it."

Nelu spoke to comfort him.

"After all, Upside Down Mountain also rode the ocean current to the sky."

“It seems to make sense…”

Nia felt slightly relieved, and when she turned around and saw Bakara standing beside her, she felt even more at ease.

"it's dark."

A dark cloud appeared above their heads at some point, shrouding the surrounding sea in darkness.

"This is what is called the Emperor Jiyun."

Nalu raised his head and looked at the large cloud in the sky.

The Sky Island is probably above these clouds.

"got windy!"

Along with the sea breeze, the ocean current below the Polaris suddenly began to rotate violently, and in an instant a huge vortex was formed, with the Polaris right at the center of the vortex.

"After the whirlpool, there is the ocean current!"

The whirlpool gradually subsided, and Neru's observation Haki clearly felt that a huge energy was brewing under the sea.

"Everyone, grab the stuff!"

The next moment, the sea below the Polaris began to surge, and then a surging sea current suddenly erupted, sending the Polaris into the sky. The sea current surged up into the sky, piercing through the clouds in the sky. Under the air current, the Polaris raised its sails and flew along the sea current into the sky.

···
"This is Sky Island!"

Nia stood on the deck and looked around.

After a thrilling voyage, they finally arrived at the legendary Sky Island!

"This should only be considered an empty sea."

Naylu looked at the pointer in his hand.

The record pointer is still pointing diagonally upward.

"Moreover, we may have only reached the middle of the empty sea. There should be an even higher empty sea."

"I want to eat the empty fish!"

Nia ran to Minina's side and hugged her arms.

"I want to try it too!"

Minina looked down at the ocean.

"Let the bear come!"

Bepo rushed to the side of the boat and jumped over.

They are not the only ones who want to taste the taste of Sora.

"Sissi, something seems to be wrong."

Genos squatted down and looked at Sissi with a nervous expression.

Although she had not experienced any strenuous exercise, Xixi was breathing heavily and looked very tired.

"The altitude here should be nearly 10,000 meters. The air must be much thinner than on the ground."

Luo explained, then brought a bowl of medicine and placed it in front of Sissi.

"Drink some of this, it may help relieve the pain."

Before coming up, Luo had considered this situation and prepared some medicine.

Now it seems that it has come in handy.

"Look!"

Bepo emerged from the sea with a handful of strange-looking fish in his hands.

"This should be Sora!"

"It is indeed the same as what was recorded in Rolando's logbook. It looks very strange."

Robin leaned over to take a look.

"Leave it to me!"

Minina took the fish that Bepo had caught and called Kosa to go into the kitchen together.

"Then let's move on."

After passing through a maze-like passage formed by clouds, a huge portal appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Gate to Heaven?"

Looking at the name written on the gate, Robin's lips curled up slightly.

"This name makes it sound like we're all dead."

"Don't say such unlucky words!"

"Go through this gate and you can enter the real Sky Island."

"I wonder what other delicacies there are on Sky Island. The sky fish just now tasted very good!"

"Yes, it has two completely different tastes from the one below. I am looking forward to the next trip."

Amid the laughter and chatter of the crowd, the Polaris passed through the gate.

"Are you here for sightseeing or for fighting?"

An old lady holding a camera walked out from behind a door and started taking pictures of Rhodes and the others with the camera.

Bang!
Peikin swung her arm, and with a slight explosion, the camera in the old lady's hand exploded.

"It's really rude to take photos without our permission."

"So that's how it is, you guys are here to fight!"

The old lady loosened her grip, letting the remains of the camera fall from her hand, and looked at Rhodes and his group with a sinister look.

"Ok?"

Kosa frowned as he watched the scene.

Judging from the communication just now, there should be a country behind this door, and this old lady should be a role similar to that of customs.

However, as a state official, she treated people who came with such an attitude and even mentioned war directly.

Does she really understand the cruelty of war?
"fight?"

Rhodes looked at the old lady.

"Are you declaring war on us?"

Rhodes went to Sky Island for several purposes.

The first was the historical text on Sky Island. Although Rhode had no interest in the blank 100-year history, this history was what Robin had been pursuing all along, and it was also her dream. As the captain who shouldered the dreams of the crew, Rhode would certainly help the crew realize their dreams to the best of his ability.

The second reason was for the golden city that was washed up into the sky. The huge amount of gold stored there was also what Rhodes needed.

The last and most important thing is the nature-type devil fruit - the Thunder Fruit!
The current user of the Thunder Fruit is none other than the [God] of this sky island - Enelu!

"To be precise, you were the ones who declared war first."

The old lady spoke in a low voice with a sinister smile on her face.

"Oh, Almighty God, I beg you to punish us and turn these arrogant people who dare to offend the Kingdom of God into ashes!"

"Who is she talking to?"

Gray looked at the old lady strangely.

Could it be that the people on this sky island have mastered a special method of communication?

"It sounded like she was praying to [God]."

"god!?"

Pei Jin and Xia Qi looked at each other.

This old lady was so arrogant when she opened her mouth and asked for a war, but in the end she had to rely on praying to God to win the war?
"Don't be careless."

Rhodes concentrated his mind.

The so-called "God" on this island is Eneel, the user of the Thunder Fruit.

The other party combined the ability of the fruit with the observation Haki to form a unique ability that can monitor the entire Kingdom of God.

And with the power of the Thunder Fruit, he can bring down divine punishment - thunder - anywhere in the Kingdom of God!
With the speed of lightning, this is an attack that is almost impossible to defend against.

The domineering aura slowly flowed through Nailu's body.

Ever since the old lady started muttering, his seeing-and-hearing color had been giving warnings, and he felt a very strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

"coming!"

The next moment, Nalu suddenly raised his head.

Just as Nelu raised his head, a horrifying bolt of lightning struck from the sky, covering the entire Polaris, emitting a horrifying aura of destruction.

"Bear Impact!"

Before Nelu could make any response, the big bear suddenly stood up and clapped his hands. A huge bear paw-shaped impact cannon was fired from his hands and rushed towards the falling lightning.

"This is···"

Everyone's vision was filled with lightning. Although the lightning did not touch their bodies, it made their skin feel stinging.

boom--! !

The bear paw shock wave was released suddenly, scattering the thunder that fell from the sky, and rushed up into the sky without losing momentum, blasting a huge bear paw mark in the clouds above.

"You're quite capable."

A voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears. Nia turned her head abruptly and saw a man with huge earlobes and a thunder drum on his back who appeared on the deck of the Polaris at some point and looked at Big Bear with interest.

"However, since you dared to offend God, your fate is already determined!"

Enelu glanced at everyone on the boat with an indifferent look.

Although the bear-like man had just blocked his divine punishment, which was commendable, divine punishment of that level was something he could easily unleash.

As long as he uses his God's power seriously, these guys in front of him will instantly kneel down in front of him like those people in the past.

Thinking of this, Enelu raised his arms.

"Great, you came to me on your own!"

Rhodes looked at Enelu with an uncontrollable smile on his face.
