Fish-Man Island.

...

...

Black Pearl was already anchored on the other side of the island, ready to head towards the New World. The footsteps continued as more and more crew members boarded the ship, preparing to depart for the New World.

"Goodbye, mermaids and fish-men!!!" Lucy exclaimed excitedly on the ship, waving to the entire crowd on the island waiting for them to depart. "Farewell, friends!" she shouted.

Meanwhile, Shirahoshi was still with her family, saying goodbye to each of them, giving a small hug.

"Take care, daughter. You can call your daddy anytime you need help. Don't let that man you call a husband corrupt you even more!" Neptune almost cried as his daughter departed.

"Stop it, dad! I'm going now. We'll see each other soon," she said quickly, before flying to the ship.

"It looks like we're ready..." Luffy looked at the dozens of members already on the ship. His gaze fell on a group that had been forgotten. "What was Two Piece doing while we were at Ryugu Palace?" Luffy asked curiously, after all, he had just left them aside and went to Neptune's house.

"They...? They stayed on the ship. Seems like we forgot about them," Hugo said nearby.

"We were left aside..." everyone murmured sadly.

"Anyway..." Luffy left them aside once again and returned to Jimbei heading for the ship's helm. "It's finally time for us to depart. Nami, keep an eye on the route. Let's go!"

"Yes." Nami said while reviewing all the magnetic points she had from the first islands of the New World.

The ship finally began to depart... leaving the port, while Lucy, Perona Bonney, Rebecca were at the edge of the ship saying goodbye to everyone after making many friendships on the island.

"Goodbye, Mermaid-san!" Brook also exclaimed beside them. "My eyes cry from missing you... even though I have no eyes anymore! Yohohohoho!"

The ship quickly began to touch the island's boundary bubble. As it left, the coating protected the vessel, descending back to the sea floor. And everyone could see the ship beginning to stabilize and move, gaining speed and starting to ascend to the surface, thus beginning their journey to the New World.

Meanwhile, Black Pearl continued to advance, moving away from the island of the fish-men, near the waters of the New World. Some pirates who had left the island of fish-men a few hours earlier were also advancing and finally approaching the surface.

"We're finally getting there, men!!" the captain of this ship exclaimed, raising his scimitar high, excited.

"YES!!!" came the collective shout soon after as his men waited for them to finally enter the New World.

One of the crew members approached the captain at this moment, cautiously. "Captain, are you sure we shouldn't have tried to talk to the Straw Hats?" he said carefully to his captain.

"It doesn't matter now. Besides... We're going to be greater than them! We will conquer power and wealth in this sea, and find the One Piece! We will not be subordinate to anyone," the captain affirmed, after all, despite everyone knowing the great pirate that is the Straw Hats, many wanted to be free and fight for it.

They were getting closer to the surface until they finally emerged, as the sea water rose in front of them with the ship. "We are finally in the New World!" the man exclaimed.
