One Piece: Starting from Obtaining the Float-Float Fruit

"I'm really looking forward to it, the legendary golden city." De Soro sat at the bow of the ship, his eyes fixed on the sea.

Since Anya didn't know the exact location of the Sky Island, he planned to find the town of Mogu on Jaya Island first, as the other side of the island was where the Sky Current was born.

Sky Island is located directly above Jaya Island.

Anya looked at Desolo, whose face was full of anticipation, and felt a little strange. After all, this guy would have far more gold in 14 years than he did on the Sky Island.

Would the future Golden Emperor actually get excited over such a small amount of gold?

"The legendary Sky Island is indeed something to look forward to," Robin chimed in.

After all, in most people's eyes, sky islands are something that absolutely cannot exist; how could an island possibly float in the sky?

Perona, standing nearby, expressed her strong desire to see the legendary Golden Bell! She was very curious!

Hmm... Anya looked at how excited they were and didn't know what to say. If we're talking about floating islands, he could easily make several large islands float permanently in the sky with his own abilities.

That shouldn't be anything unusual, right?

Just as everyone was chattering and discussing, the surrounding sky suddenly darkened.

"Hmm? Is it going to rain? It would be terrible if there was a storm." Anya looked at the dense dark clouds in the sky.

The weather on the Grand Line is so unpredictable; it seems I need to find a navigator.

Beside him, De Solo suddenly pointed an ashen-faced finger at the sky to the side of the ship: "Hey, hey, you're kidding, right? What's that?!"

Perona looked in the direction he pointed and was immediately terrified, tears streaming down her face.

"This must be a hallucination! It must be a hallucination!"

Not far away, behind the dark clouds, several enormous figures could be seen, each tens of thousands of meters tall, stretching across the sky.

Even the well-informed Robin turned pale at this moment.

The feeling of this enormous creature being so close triggered a fear ingrained in everyone's genes.

"Ugh, look at you guys, you're so lame! That was just a projection. These figures must have come from the Sky Island."

Anya lay leisurely on the chair, showing no sign of panic, while the other three were quite frightened.

With Anya's explanation, the three of them gradually relaxed.

"Damn it! If you knew, you should have said so sooner! You scared me to death!" Perona wiped away her tears and said angrily.

Robin, who was standing nearby, secretly used her ability to grow two hands on Anya's waist, and then a scream came from the ship.

"No! Robin, I was wrong, please stop pinching my kidneys!" Anya cried out in pain, rolling on the ground.

Why! Why does it hurt so much! Is there really such a thing as the Iron Fist of Love?

De Solo, standing nearby, also mocked, "Hahaha! Got taught a lesson, huh! Baka!"

He was a little embarrassed at this moment, he didn't expect to be so frightened by a few projections, it was too embarrassing.

……

Magic Valley Town.

This land is teeming with pirates. They gather together and their favorite thing to do is to talk loudly and freely.

Recently, a new source of amusement has emerged here: Montblanc Coulicate.

This man is none other than the legendary descendant of Noland, the King of Liars.

The pirates initially thought it was just a fairy tale, but they never expected that the man was actually real. As a result, they've been mocking him every day lately.

"Hey, this is really funny! That big talker actually has descendants!"

"Yeah, and that guy with the chestnut-shaped hair actually said he wouldn't lie, hahaha!"

Nearby, Cricket, who was working at the tavern, seemed to have gotten used to the pirates' taunts.

From birth, his clan is burdened with the stigma of being a liar. At first, he would argue about it, but later he pretended not to care, until he truly did not care.

"Hey! Chestnut Head, can you tell us why your ancestors lied to people?"

One of the pirates taunted Cricket.

"Who knows? Maybe he was just half asleep." Kulikate wiped the wine glass, looking at his face through the reflection in the glass.

"Hahaha, what a joke! How boring! A golden land, and that so-called sky island, it's just as ridiculous!"

Just as the pirates were talking amongst themselves, the tavern door was suddenly pushed open.

A white-haired man followed by a pink-haired little girl—what an odd combination.

Anya slowly walked in, and suddenly paused, seeing a familiar figure.

"Would you like something to drink, sir?" Kulikate asked, turning his head.

"No, I'm here to gather information. Do you know where the upwelling current leading to Sky Island is?"

As Anya finished speaking, the surrounding pirates burst into a huge chorus of laughter.

"No way? Skypiea? The era of pirates dreaming about it is long gone. How can anyone still be a fool to believe it now?!"

"I'm dying of laughter! There have been so many jokes lately, how can there be so many idiots!"

Hearing these taunts, Anya ignored them and instead looked at the man in front of her.

"Guest, you jest. I do know about the Ascension Current, but the so-called Sky Island is a bit of a fantasy," Kulikate said with a smile, shaking his head.

Upon hearing this, Perona couldn't hold back any longer: "A bunch of idiots, so noisy! Negative ghosts!"

In an instant, the pirates who were still laughing in the tavern all knelt on the ground in repentance: "I'm just a pirate without dreams..."

Anya paid no attention to the group of lackeys and continued, "Take me to Chongtian Hailiu."

Kulikate's hand, which was wiping the glasses, stopped abruptly. He spoke somewhat calmly, "Guest, do you really believe in the existence of these so-called Sky Islands?"

"Believe? No, you're wrong. It's not a matter of belief or disbelief, but rather that the Sky Island is right there in the sky." Anya shook her head, correcting the error in his words.

This feeling of confidence made Kulikate momentarily lose his composure... It wasn't a matter of belief or disbelief, but rather, it was right there.

In fact, there was a moment when he believed in the words of his ancestors, and he even wondered if the Golden City had sunk into the sea.

However, he never had the opportunity to verify this conjecture.

"Guest, my name is Montblanc Coulicate, the Liar King, a descendant of Noland. Do you really want to believe me?"

Kulikate gave a wry smile and told Anya his name.

"Are you stupid? Since I know about the existence of Sky Island, I also know that the Golden City is real."

"The Golden City was carried to the Sky Island by a massive, surging ocean current, which is why it disappeared." Anya stated the truth behind the Golden City's disappearance with a calm expression.

Upon hearing this, Kulikate's eyes widened in shock. The Golden Land... in the sky?!

This was something he had never imagined, but it wasn't entirely impossible; in fact, it was the most likely thing to happen!

The pirates, who had just been affected by the negative spirits, have now come to their senses.

"You bastard! Where did this idiot come from, spouting nonsense all day long! I'll kill you!"

Some foolish pirates attempted to kill Anya.

Because Anya's bounty poster was photographed from the back, and the front of the poster has not yet been photographed, none of the pirates recognized it.

However, one of the pirates was sweating profusely. He shakily took out a wanted poster and compared it with the pink-haired girl's.

Perona, a member of the Four Emperors' ranks, has a bounty of 6600 million Berries.

Why are the members of the Four Emperors here, and who is that man in the lead?

Before he could figure it out, he felt the world spinning before his eyes, and his head hit the ground.

Anya simply stroked the hilt of his sword with one hand and covered Perona's eyes with the other, beheading all the noisy pirates.

"You're so noisy! Sorry, boss, I've made your shop dirty. Now, please lead the way."
