One Piece: Starting by Refusing Red-Hair's Invitation

A flicker of surprise crossed Kaku's eyes at the sight.

Enel twirled the golden staff in his hand and began releasing electricity.

The ship's propellers began to spin.

As the flying ship slowly rose into the air, every shipwright in Dock One gaped in shock.

"N-no way! That ship can actually fly?"

"Uh, am I seeing things?"

"Holy crap! I thought they were just blowing hot air, but they meant it! A flying ship? That's incredible!"

At the railing of the flying ship's deck.

Kaku gripped the railing with both hands, the wind blowing over him. "It really can fly! This feels amazing!" he exclaimed.

Enel grinned smugly. "This is a divine ship I brought down from Sky Island. How could you foolish Blue Sea dwellers ever build anything like it?"

"Sky Island?" Kaku's eyes lit up. He turned to Enel and asked, "Is that an island up in the sky?"

"Of course," Enel replied smugly.

"There really are islands in the sky? That's amazing!"

"Yahahahaha! I forgive your ignorance." Enel turned to Lin Mo, who had already set up his personal lounge chair on the deck. "Where are we headed next?"

Lin Mo glanced at his personal stats and said calmly, "Sabaody Archipelago."

Setting sail: Kaku's frustration

Half an hour after leaving Water 7.

Inside the flying ship's kitchen.

Kaku stood in front of a refrigerator filled with fruit and alcohol, lost in thought.

Enel strolled over, took out an apple, gave it a casual wipe, and bit into it as he headed back outside.

Seeing him about to leave, Kaku immediately called after him. "Wait. Don't tell me this is all you two usually eat..."

"What?" Enel looked completely unconcerned. "What's wrong with eating this?"

"It's not that there's anything wrong with it... having it occasionally is fine."
