"Hmm... this is... Sanji? Oh no."
As soon as Usopp climbed onto the ship, he looked around but didn't see Enel. Instead, he found his companion lying on the ground, his life hanging in the balance. He rushed over, helped him up, and checked on him.
"Phew... thank goodness, he's still breathing, he's just unconscious..."
Hmm... Is Enel not here? And what about that guy we met before? Why isn't he here?
Forget it, let's get Sanji out of here quickly, to avoid any further accidents!
Usopp checked his breath with his finger, then breathed a sigh of relief and asked, then wondered why Enel and Luo Chen weren't there.
But he didn't delve into it further. He simply picked up Sanji, tied him tightly with a rope, and continued climbing down the rope he had come up with, leaving the Ark Maxim.
Meanwhile, Enel, who had just cornered them, was inside the ship's cabin, constantly surveying the vessel's condition.
Click...
Enel used his Golden Staff to push back in an exposed gear, then continued on to the next location.
"Damn pirates, they've caused me so much trouble..."
Fortunately, it was just the gears that malfunctioned; we just need to put them back together...
His voice gradually drifted in from afar, while his figure disappeared into the distance.
"Oh no! It's going to crash!! No...!"
Usopp's voice came from above. Nami looked up and saw Usopp and Sanji falling from the sky together.
boom...
Usopp was impaled on the Island Cloud, unable to move, while the unconscious Sanji, whom he had been carrying, fell to the side.
"It's Usopp and Sanji... Thank goodness, I'm so glad you're alright..."
Nami drove up in her Waver through the giant vines, speaking with delight.
"Um... Sanji, are you alright?! Wake up, you're a man!!"
I'm so sorry you were killed by Enel because of us..."
Nami saw Sanji lying unconscious to the side, immediately stopped Waver, ran over, helped him up, and shook his body as she spoke.
"Ugh... Quick... Quick, save me! Nami... I'm dying..."
Usopp, who was stuck in the Island Cloud beside her, struggled with his legs and cried out to Nami for help.
"Ah... oh no, I'm so sorry, Usopp, I completely forgot about you... anyway, let's get you out of here first..."
Hearing Usopp's words, Nami realized that she had left Usopp waiting for her to rescue him.
Then, Nami quickly got up and went to his side, grabbed Usopp's feet with both hands, and pulled him out forcefully.
"Ugh!!"
Nami struggled to pull Usopp off the Island Cloud.
"Okay, finally free... phew..."
Usopp, now freed, stood up and breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke.
"Look, over there, those giant vines are just like the ones I saw before. If they were originally one entity, then we should be above the City of Gold..."
Nami helped Waver up and stood on him, then pointed to the giant vines on one side and said to Usopp.
"What? In that case, the gold is right down there!"
Usopp walked over to Sanji, hoisted him onto his shoulders, and began to speak.
"Hmm! But the gold is all gone; Enel took it all..."
Come on up, let's find the others together, and then quickly get on a boat and leave this place.
The Holy Land in the Sky is no longer safe...
Nami nodded in response, then activated the Waver engine and addressed Usopp.
Mou...
Mou...
Mou...
The two rode the Waver down the giant vines in search of Robin and Luffy.
Boom...
In the Ark Maxim, inside the ship's cabin, near Enel, a device beside him suddenly exploded, destroying part of the wiring.
"Those despicable Blue Sea People, they actually did such a thing to Ark Maxim, but it was all in vain."
"I know all the activation mechanisms in the Ark Maxim, and I will be able to repair it very quickly."
Click...
As Enel spoke, he put the other gear back in, and then his chilling voice rang out again in the Ark Maxim.
"Moreover, even if the engine fails to start, the ark won't fall. On this ship are 200 extinct Jet Wind Dial that I collected from my homeland, which can sustain them in the air for a period of time."
No matter what you do, you cannot change the fate of this country. The Holy Land in the Sky cannot escape my punishment...
Hahahaha...
Long...
Long...
Long...
Luffy dragged the heavy, enormous golden ball in his right hand as he ran towards the giant vines.
"Wait... Luffy, wait for me!!"
Behind him, the little girl Aisa, carrying Pierre, chased after him, panting as she spoke.
Tick-tock...
Tick-tock...
As she ran, tears slowly streamed down her face.
"Hmm... Aisa?"
Hearing that Aisa seemed a little off behind him, Luffy, turned around, and looked at her questioningly.
"Hey... Luffy! Do you think what Enel said is true? Will the Holy Land in the Sky really disappear?"
Aisa bit her lip and said to Luffy.
"...
Don't worry, I won't let him do that. Trust me, I will stop his plot.
Seeing her tears, Luffy hesitated for a moment before speaking again, his tone filled with determination and confidence.
"Um!!"
Aisa nodded in trust, tears streaming down her face, and the two continued on their way.
However, because of the heavy and enormous golden ball, Luffy accidentally destroyed many ruins along the Luffy, much to Aisa's dismay.
After running for a while, the two finally met Robin and his companions near the ruins of Shandora, close to the giant vines. Robin were sitting there resting and recovering their strength.
"Um..."
Bang!!!
Robin had barely sat down when she saw a dark shadow flying towards her. She quickly used her ability to catch Aisa and Pierre, one person and one bird, as they flew towards her.
"They're leaving Robin in your care. I need to continue searching for Enel..."
As soon as Robin received them, she heard her captain's voice. Then Luffy sped past her like the wind and ran up the giant vines.
"Hmm... so it's Captain. Alright, I'll leave them to me. Let's go up from here; Enel should stop there for a while..."
Robin put the two down, ignoring Aisa's surprise, and pointed to the huge vines behind him.
At this moment, Luffy didn't hear her words at all. He only knew that Enel's spaceship was hovering in the air, and that he could get to him by following it. He guessed Enel's intention by accident.
Mou...
Mou...
Mou...
A little while later, Nami arrived at Robin's side in Waver and Usopp.
" Robin, Aisa... Thank goodness, I'm so glad you're alright..."
Nami waved to Robin from a distance and then sped off towards her.
