3rd POV: (From Now Onwards!)

"Luffy and crew managed to avoid the White Berets' demands, but a divine messenger suddenly dragged Nami and three others away."

Sanji lit a match for his smokes. "So, they're saying that if we want our friends and ship back, we just have to come in from the front." He puffed out some smoke.

"So that's our ordeal and... Heaven's Judgment?!" Usopp gulped, but Dakota thought it would be a little more complicated.

"Yes. In Upper Yard, four priests who are strong beyond imagination await you." Pagaya informed them, and Dakota looked at Conis, who looked back in fear for the Pirate group.

"Oh, then it's easy," Luffy announced, full of confidence. "To put it simply, all we have to do is beat up those priests, right?"

"You're as simple-minded as ever, Little Brother." Dakota joked, and he looked up, laughing.

"This is becoming fun!" He giggled, and Dakota saw the worry in Pagaya's eyes grow more intense, but she didn't know if it was just for them.

ONE PIECE - SKYPIEA ARC

The remaining Straw Hats begin their journey to Upper Yard, packing what they need for their ordeal into rucksacks that Conis and Pagaya lend them, though they don't expect to see the Blue Sea Pirates again. "Hey! Luffy!" Usopp shouts after his Captain, who rushes ahead.

"W-Wait up!" Sanji yells, trying to control the rubber boy as he runs down the steps that lead to the beach.

"What is it?" Luffy asks them, stopping and turning to face the others, holding his large rucksack, mainly filled with food.

"Luf, we need to stick together!" Dakota warns him, running to his side, carrying a black bag full of supplies and weapons on her shoulder.

"Where are you wandering off to all of a sudden?!" Sanji asks him, catching up with Luffy.

"You heard Nami. "Luffy replies. "We'll only burden Conis and the old guy if we stay here."

"Yeah, but where are we going?" He asks him again.

"Isn't it obvious? The sacrificial altar." The Captain questions, looking at them with a severe look.

"How are you planning to get there exactly?" Dakota asks her little Brother, making Luffy ponder.

"Quit thinking!" Sanji yells at him, seeing the gears turning inside the rubber Captain's head.

"We just need to swipe one of those ships and take the Milky Road." Luffy announces his plan, pointing out to the White-White Sea.

"Do you see any ships we can swipe?!" He questions, making the Captain think deeply again, angering the Chef. "I said, quit thinking!"

"This isn't like the Blue Sea, you know!" Usopp reminds him, pulling out the old map of Skypiea. "This old map doesn't give us details about Angel Island's geography, and even how to get onto the Milky Road is a mystery!"

"Man, what a pain..." Luffy sighs and looks up the stairs to see Conis following them, and the others look back to see her, too.

"Everyone..." Conis greets them nervously.
