While bolts of lightning still raining down across Skypiea decimating the area as the Skypieans and Shandorians all try to escape the ongoing destruction. However, our view first focuses on those on the Upperyard specifically with the group not heading up Giant Jack.

Robin: He's far above now. It's only a matter of time before his ship reaches the top of the vine.

Gan Fall: I don't get it. What is it that Eneru wants up there?

Robin: I believe he's trying to get to the Golden Bell.

Gan Fall: A bell?

Wyper: A Golden Bell? Tell me. That's what you said isn't it?

Aisa: Wyper...

Robin: Yes.

Usopp: Who was talking about a Golden Bell?

Wyper: Just before you were struck by that lightning bolt you were speaking of a Golden Bell which Eneru desired. Now that we know what Eneru's going for you have to tell me where it is.

Usopp: Hold on can we think about this for just one second guys?! You saw that thunderbolt we're as good as dead if we don't get out of here!

Robin: It's up this bean stock somewhere close to the top.

Wyper: You sure, how do you know this?

Usopp: Wait, we promised Nami that we'd wait back on the ship. She's gonna be back with them anytime now. I'm sure.

Aisa: The coward's right this time.

Robin: The ruins of Shandora are in the layer directly beneath us. The giant bean stock pierces directly through the center of the city.

Usopp goes over to the edge looking down to see the ruins below had all been destroyed.

Usopp: Aw man these ruins or whatever they are got blast into dust. And if we don't get out of here we're gonna be next!

Robin: In the ruins I discovered a map that revealed the location of the Grand Belfrye that holds the Golden Bell. It indicated that it could be found in the heart of the ancient city.

Usopp: Why are you ignoring me?!

Robin: To put it simply. The force of the impact withy the vine must have sent the bell hurling skyward to it's present location.

Wyper: (Then it's directly above us.)

Gan Fall: (The singing voice of the island.)

Going higher into the sky we catch up with Eneru who has reached the top of Giant Jack.

Eneru: Finally, I'm above Giant Jack. Virgin sky I certainly never had reason to come up here and I doubt anyone else has either. Now where is it? After 400 years it will be found. The Golden Bell hmm?

He looks down to see Luffy and Zero both running up the bean stock approaching him.

Eneru: Absurd.

Summoning a lightning bolt upon them they are able to dodge it. Zero garbs Luffy arm's stopping them from falling however the part of the bean stock that was struck causing the top part to tilt over making them fall off. Going back to the ground Wyper tries to move but his wounds get the better of him causing him to fall onto one knee.

Aisa: Uhh Wyper, what are you planning to do. Don't tell me you plan to climb the bean stock.

Usopp getting a weird chill uses his goggles to look above to see the severed bean stock part was falling down towards them.
