I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

"No, the northwest direction is correct, Sister Robin."

The power of money: just a moment ago it was "you woman," now it's "Sister Robin."

Luffy ran over too, "Nami, is the next island a snow island?"

Nami's tone immediately changed when she heard about the difference in treatment between the rich and the poor.

"You still want to play in the snow?"

"According to the record pointer, the next island is Autumn Island."

"Akishima? It's alright, I like autumn too."

With nothing else to do, Bai Yun was watering two orange trees and remarked, "I bet you like them no matter the season, Luffy."

"Haha, I'd love to go on adventures with you guys."

Luffy replied with a smile.

Before Bai Yun could answer, something fell onto the second-floor railing and then onto the deck, making a "drip" sound.

"Um, is it raining?"

Zoro said.

Bai Yun bent down and picked it up. "No, this is... sawdust?"

"Wood chips?"

Everyone looked up and saw even more wood chips falling as a dilapidated pirate ship, more than ten times the size of the Going Merry, crashed down from the sky.

Everyone stared in shock, and even Bai Yun, who knew the truth, was still stunned.

Fortunately, the ship did not crash into the Going Merry, but landed next to it, but the huge waves it created still caused the Going Merry to rock.

"Ughhhhhh!!"

"Everyone, hold on tight to the boat, don't fall overboard!"

Bai Yun used his whip to pull Chopper back, and then reminded everyone to hurry up.

Sanji then noticed more things falling from the sky and immediately warned, "Watch out, more things are falling." He then told Luffy to hold on, "Luffy, hold the ship steady, we can't hold on any longer."

"Ok."

Luffy replied that the ship was tilting to one side, so he stretched out his hands to pull up the lower side to stabilize the Going Merry and wait for the wave to pass.

Usopp, however, sat down to meditate, saying, "When faced with danger, one must remain calm and composed; first, close your eyes and rest."

"Then open your eyes and look, what a peaceful breakfast."

In his peaceful morning, the moment he opened his eyes, a skull fell face down in front of him, trying to "stick close" to him.

"Wow!!!!!"

Chapter 188 The Legend of the Sky Island

After Robin joined.

The Straw Hat Pirates headed towards the Log Pose as usual.

Sailing on the high seas would be boring if it were always calm and peaceful.

The world is a wonderful place.

Money doesn't fall from the sky, but giant pirate ships and friendly-looking "skulls" do. Sure enough, the moment Usopp opened his eyes, they were right there beside him.

Usopp screamed in fright.

“Wa ...

Fortunately, Sanji kicked the skull away before it hit him.

As it turns out, wishful thinking leads nowhere.

When the waves subsided, the sea was covered with shipwrecks.

........

After the storm.

Usopp and Chopper were still shaken and huddled together for warmth.

Luffy looked up at the sky. "Why? Why are ships falling from the sky?"

Zoro agreed, "But there's nothing in the sky right now, not a single flying object in sight."

Bai Yun smiled slightly and replied, "Is it possible that this 'flying object' is flying too high, so we can't see it?"

Zoro thought Bai Yun's words made sense, but before he could answer, Nami exclaimed in surprise.

"What's wrong, Miss Nami?!"

Sanji immediately asked.

Nami looked at the record pointer on her wrist, but it immediately pointed to the sky.

"The record pointer is faulty; it's pointing upwards and not moving."

This is where Robin, the intellectual, comes in.

"No, it was attracted by an island with a stronger magnetic force, thus replacing the record. The pointer is pointing upwards, indicating that the 'record' was stolen by the 'Sky Island'!!!"

Even Robin, who had been calm and collected when facing Bai Yun and the others, now showed surprise on his face.

........

Robin then explained the existence of Skypiea to everyone.

It is said to be an island, but more accurately, it is a sea in the sky.

Such a wondrous existence instantly piqued Luffy's adventurous spirit, and he immediately wanted to set off for Skypiea, but he couldn't simply make his wish come true.

We're just looking for clues now.

Robin deduced from the skull that the ship that fell from the sky was the "St. Bliss," which had set sail 208 years ago in the South China Sea.

Bai Yun expressed his admiration for such deductive reasoning ability.

Meanwhile, Luffy and Usopp ventured onto a small section of shipwrecked debris floating on the sea and actually found a map of Skypiea.

Although there is a map, Nami says that empty spaces are not necessarily 100% real, because there are plenty of fake maps in the world.

But when she turned around and saw three disappointed faces, Nami immediately emphasized that Skypiea definitely exists.

But the problem exists, so how do we solve it?

The pointer just points to the sky, but they can't fly, and neither can the Merry.

Therefore, what is needed now is [intelligence].

So, in the end, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji put on the diving suits designed by Usopp and went into the sea to search for information on the St. Bliss.

........

"Wait, let's bring Xiaobai along, it might come in handy."

Bai Yun took Luffy's hand, and Xiao Bai automatically spiraled onto Luffy's wrist.

"What can Xiaobai do to help?"

"Alright, since Bai Yun asked me to bring it, then I'll bring it."

Luffy replied with a smile.

Then, Chopper turned to the pole, the rope slowly loosened, and the three of them sank down. Their words would travel through the opening in the bucket to the horn above.

In a sense, Usopp is also the inventor of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Just as the three were sinking, an accident occurred, but it wasn't an accident below them; rather, it happened on the ship, on the surface of the sea.

All that could be heard was, "Salvage! Salvage!"

The two words were sung out, and the sound spread outwards.

There was also the clanging sound of gold and platinum.

Then a boat with a bow shaped like a monkey holding a pair of cymbals came into view.

A man who looked like an ape and whose name was also Ape stood on the boat and shouted.

Director of the Ape Pirates.

The "Salvage King" ape makes its debut.

The bounty is 2,300 million Berries.

Chapter 189 Demon King

Nami was speechless at the sudden appearance of the ape.

"How did a Cheng Yaojin suddenly appear at this time?"

He thought to himself, "Thank goodness Bai Yun is still here."

Meanwhile, Bai Yun was smiling as he watched "Zou Le" opposite him. If he knew what Nami was thinking, he would definitely tell her not to worry, that the other side was just an "idiot".

"That's right, all the shipwrecks in this area belong to me. Don't even think about getting involved. Have you interfered yet?"

No one asked him, the ape said to himself.

"That person seems to be planning to salvage it."

Robin said.

"If I heard correctly, that should be it."

Bai Yun replied that the word "salvage" was practically stuck in his head.

"Then say it's an opportunity."

Nami said.

Bai Yun: "Judging from his expression, I'm afraid he'll salvage it and won't give it to us..."

"What are you muttering about! Squeak!! Answer my question."

Before Bai Yun could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the ape.
