Celes Celes no Mi: Alabasta

The Rollercoaster Mountain

Luffilia lay flat on the ground as heavy rain poured down, Nami held the map as they rid the storm to their destination. "How far do we have until we get there?" Luffilia asked as she and Camelopardails kept the lighting away. "That can't be right?" Nami said, walking into the meeting room as Luffilia fallowed. Nami placed the grand line map pointing to a mountain. "The entrance to the grand line is up a mountain." Nami said, pointing to it.

Luffilia looked nodding as she grabbed the steering, pulling itit left closer to the mountain. "Ok, the mountain it is." Luffilia said, smiling as the ship turned left only for Usopp to stop her. "What a minute! Up a mountain, you can't be serious?" Usopp said as Nami nodded. "I am the map points to Reverse Mountain. Were there a canal." Nami said, showing Usopp. "So we fallow the map." Luffilia said, going to the Steering only for Usopp stopping her. "Hey, hands off of Luffilia! If our captain said up the mountain, then we go up the mountain." Sanji said, kicking Usopp as Nami heard no rain.

Nami ran outside to see clear sky, no wind, calm seas. "Damit, turn us around now!" Nami said as Luffilia did as she was told. "What, why is it nice here? Why go back it's nice here?" Zoro said, stretching as he stepped outside. "This is the Calm Belt. It what's separate the blues from the grand line." Luffilia said, trying to turn it around with Sanji's help. "Why not go through here?" Usopp asks with the reply of the ship shacking.

They returned to the raining waters as they all huffed and puffed. "That's why it's a sea king breeding ground." Nami said as Luffilia nodded. "Shanks told me about the calm belt and why people avoid it." Luffilia said as they reached Reverse Mountain. "That would have been good to know." Usopp said as Luffilia turned to him. "Luffilia was steering us the right way, but you had to stop her." Sanji said as he set some hot drinks down. "We're all kinda wet, so let's warm up before we get to the mountain." Sanji said as everyone took their drink.

Luffilia stood on the bow as they reached the foot of the mountain. "Constellation Octant." Luffilia said as she watched as a bearer form around the ship, making water bounce off. "How came you never used this before?" Zoro asked as he tried to touch it. "Don't it's very sensitive to human touch." Luffilia said, stopping Zoro. "I can only use it once a day. Wants it's gone, it's gone." Luffilia explained as Usopp crossed his arms, hinding them in his pits. "We don't know what to expect from here on out. This place is going to challenge us and test our abilities, so it's going to be a long journey." Luffilia said as everyone stood with her looking at the mountain.

Nami sighed as she smiled, looking at it. "No turning back know." Nami said as everyone agreed, setting toward the mountain. They were reaching the current that would take them up the mountain. "Sanji, Usopp steer now!" Luffilia said as they were heading, off course. She then heard a snap, making her look at them as they held the whip staff. "We're going to crash!" Zoro said as Luffilia ran to rail. "No, we're not!" Luffilia yelled as an air curtain blocked them along with Octant. "We're in!" Sanji and Usopp said as they moved to the front as they heard a sound.

In front of the mountain stood a land whale. Since the rod was broken, they couldn't steer away from the creature. "Leave it to me! Constellation Antlia!" Luffilia said, making air pops that slowed them down to the point it was a row. "Few we slowed down." Luffilia said, turn to see everyone half scared for their lives. While everyone was trying to get clear of the whale, Luffilia kept looking at it. "He looks lost." Luffilia said as Nami questioned her. "I'm just going to..." Luffilia said, jump off, breaking Octant. "Constellation Hydra." She said as the sea monster came up lifting Luffilia up to the whale. Only for their ship to be sucked in.

Luffilia was still on the Hydra as she stared at the whale. "Hey, let me in!" Luffilia said, trying to find a way in when she found a shaft leading in. "Okay?" Luffilia said, running to the shaft before he went under. "That's not normal, then again is anything normal." Luffilia asked as she made her way down. As she moved down the inside, he started to move, making everything that was one solid ground a wall, then a ceiling and back. "Ok, when the whale moves, so does everything else." Luffilia said, walking forward. Only for her to move forward on her own. "Can't stop, can't stop moving!" Luffilia said as she ran head first into two people and a door.

That door led out to the belly where Going Merry and everyone else was. "Oh good, you're okay!" Luffilia said, smiling before remembering she was falling into water? "Save me!" Luffilia said as she landed in the fluid below. Zoro handed to push Sanji into grabbing the strangers as he grabbed their captain. "Lesson learned?" Nami said as Luffilia lay on the floor. "Try not to look directly into the eye of the whale?" Luffilia said, getting up.

Crocus came back as he saw to familiar people. Apparently, these two are trying to kill the whale, while Crocus is trying to keep Laboon alive. "We'll see about that." They said as they took out guns only for Luffilia to use Lyra. Crocus explained who they are and why they want Laboon. He then explained Laboon's story and how he got there. "So he's lonely." Luffilia said, looking at the painted clouds before heading out. They then throw the trust pasters into the ocean below. "?" Luffilia looked down as the log post before turning to Nami. "Hey, is this ours?" Luffilia said only to get a no, so she threw it overboard, which got destroyed when landing on mr.9 head.

As Crocus explained more, how those pirates where his pod as Luffilia turning back to the whale and trying to think of a way to make it happy. "I got it." Luffilia said smiling as she stood up. "Constellation Hydra, Cetus." Luffilia said as Hydra and a slightly smaller whale came out. "What are you doing?" Crocus said as Laboon started to play with them. "I think he was lonely." Luffilia said, smiling as Laboon "Hey do you like them? " Luffilia asked, making Laboon look at her. "Well, they can be part of your pod, but you have to promise me something. Can you do that?" Luffilia asked as she got a rumble  instead. "Stop hitting your head on the mountain." Luffilia said, placing her hands on both Hydra and Cetus with a whip of her hand they began solid. "They might not replace your old pod, but hopefully, they can make you happy." Luffilia said as both Hydra and Cetus snuggled close to Laboon.
