"Hey, where'd Miss. Nami disappear to?" Sanji asked as the Going Merry sailed closer to Jaya on the back of the Nami-named Sheldon the Sea Turtle.
"Big Brother took him to see the treasure he found in the turtle's belly," Chopper answered.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN ME?" Sanji demanded. "There's no telling what those two could get up to alone in there with all that money!"
"I'm still calling it Blastoise," Luffy grumbled.
"You might be right Sanji," Usopp remarked, "If I wasn't so set on being objective in my role as pool bookie, I'd put my money on the two of them getting together while they're in there. If not, then when Y/N manages to find that legendary City of Gold once we reach the Sky Island."
"What's this about a pool?" Robin inquired.
"I guess we can tell you since neither of them are here right now," Zoro reasoned, "We've all got money on how those two get together or how they don't. If you wanna join, talk to Usopp."
"I'll need some time to think it over," Robin decided, "you've all known them for a considerably longer amount of time than I have. I don't plan to throw my money away on a whim."
"SANJI!" Luffy exclaimed, "LET'S EAT!"
"You just had that octopus stew," Sanji reminded him.
"You took that away from us!" Usopp snapped.
"Yeah!" Chopper chimed in, "Jerk!"
"Ugghh... fine," Sanji conceded, "I'll see what I can scrounge up. We still don't have working refrigerator. Hopefully we'll make land at this 'Jaya' place soon and Y/N can buy us a new one, preferably one that's Luffy Proof."
"Does something like that actually exist?" Zoro wondered as he cast a wary glance at Luffy.

"Watch your step," Y/N warned Nami as he led her by the hand down Sheldon's throat to the stomach.
"This is totally gross!" Nami complained.
"That's the point," Y/N pointed out, "Not many people would think to look for treasure in the belly of a gigantic turtle. Even fewer would actually go looking for it."
"But you would," Nami reminded him as she gave his hand a fond squeeze.
"Yeah well I—"AACHOOO! "...sorry..."
"I've never heard you like this around treasure," Nami noted.
"Yeah, well you should've seen me when I was bringing Crocodile's treasure back to Alubarna," Y/N replied, "I scared the crap out of Mana and Jun. Not to mention the ducks. We were halfway across the Sandora River when my nose started bleeding. I spent so much time with all that treasure behind me on the duck that I guess my body was forced to get used to it. I'm hoping that if I make semi-regular trips down here I'll be able to get used to all this treasure too."
"But what happens when you add more?" Nami asked. "Say we find the City of Gold. You'll have to get used to all that new treasure."
"I guess this Treasure Sense can be a double-edge sword at times," Y/N reasoned.
They reached the end of the throat and found themselves standing at the opening of the stomach. Nami took a moment to stare around them at the wrecked pirate ships before focusing her attention on the marine ship that Y/N had told her about.
"So how do we get over there?" she inquired.
"That's what the rope is for," Y/N informed her as he pointed up to the rope that was embedded in the wall of the stomach above the opening they were standing in and went across the stomach to the marine ship.
