Chapter 61 Sky Island
Following the original path, Dante Voss returned to the going merry.
At this moment, Chopper was bandaging Luffy and Zoro's wounds, while Nami was complaining to the two of them with dissatisfaction.
Seeing Dante Voss, she stopped her lecture, walked up to him, and asked: "Have you resolved everything?"
Dante Voss nodded, "Yeah, not a single bit left!"
"It's a good thing it was you; otherwise, I would have been infuriated by them!" Nami looked at the two of them, feeling that they were beyond saving.
"Ahahaha, it's all in the past." Luffy laughed heartily, completely unconcerned about the beating he had received earlier.
Zoro was also nonchalantly moving his body; for them, a beating like that couldn't cause any real damage.
"So, did you find out a way to get to Sky Island?" Sanji walked over, handed juice to Nami, and asked the two of them.
"Nope!" Luffy shook his head. He had only eaten some food in the tavern before getting beaten up.
"As for Sky Island, I've learned a little something." Robin walked back slowly from outside and replied.
"Robin-chwan!" Seeing Robin, Sanji's eyes instantly turned into hearts, and he handed over the juice he was holding.
"Thank you!" Robin took the juice and then told everyone the news she had gathered.
"According to the people in this town, it seems there's a weird old man living on the south side of the island who knows clues about Sky Island."
"Really? Then if we find this old man, can we find the clues?" Luffy became excited.
An island floating in the sky—he really wanted to see what it looked like.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble!" Dante Voss interrupted Luffy's plan to search for Cricket, then continued:
"I can use my Ability to put the going merry away, and then I or Nami can carry everyone up."
Dante Voss didn't want them to get entangled with Cricket again, waiting to modify the ship before leaving here.
That would take up too much time.
As for the story of Noland, he had no interest in hearing it again.
That guy might not have been a liar, but he wasn't a good person either.
After all, the people of Jaya Island kindly saved him, yet he brought his king here to steal their gold. Is that really worth being moved by?
Dante Voss didn't understand.
"Yeah, as long as Dante Voss puts the going merry away, with Nami's and Dante Voss's Abilities, we can totally just fly up and see."
Usopp said excitedly. He didn't want to stay on this pirate island for even a second longer.
"In that case, let's just fly over!" Luffy nodded in agreement.
"Ah, are we really going to fly? Is there really an island that high up?" Chopper was a little scared.
Robin looked at Dante Voss, curious, and asked: "You also have the Ability to put the ship away? This Ability doesn't seem to be the same as your black energy, right?"
Dante Voss smiled slightly, "I am not a Devil Fruit user!"
"Ah, that's right, the Dante Voss's Ability is his own, not a Devil Fruit Ability, and he also has delicious bento boxes."
As Luffy spoke, he thought of that big bento box, and drool started to flow out.
"In that case, let's get ready to fly up!" Nami clapped her hands, confirming the plan.
"Alright, Nami-swan!" Sanji immediately agreed.
"Oh, fly to the sky, find Sky Island!" shouted Luffy, Chopper, and Usopp.
"Then let's go!" Nami's lips curled up slightly, and with a gentle wave of her hand, everyone except Dante Voss flew directly into the sky.
"What a convenient Ability!" Robin exclaimed; her Hana Hana no Mi couldn't achieve flight.
"Nami-swan, Nami-swan!" Sanji watched Nami flying in the air, his body twisting constantly in the sky.
"Fly, I'm a bird that can fly." Usopp pretended to be a bird, waving his arms.
"I'm a bird too!" Luffy and Chopper followed behind him.
Zoro, on the other hand, held onto his three swords tightly, afraid of falling down.
"Let's go then, to take down that God!"
A pair of black wings condensed behind Dante Voss's back, and his body flew slightly upwards.
He opened his backpack and placed his hand gently on the mast. In an instant, the going merry entered the backpack.
With a flap of the black wings behind him, Dante Voss's body soared directly into the sky, straight into the clouds.
Dante Voss's wings were much more powerful than Nami, who was controlling the Weather-Weather Fruit. In the blink of an eye, he overtook Nami and the others, flying toward the sky.
"Ah, Nami got overtaken, hurry up and chase the Dante Voss!"
Luffy was originally acting like a bird, but seeing Dante Voss fly past, he immediately got anxious.
"Alright, let's chase after him!"
Nami also wanted to compete with Dante Voss in flight Speed, so she hurriedly used the Weather-Weather Fruit, unleashed more wind power, and flew toward the sky.
However, even at full power, it was hard to catch up to Dante Voss; she could only watch as Dante Voss disappeared above the cloud layer.
...
The higher they went, the smaller the ground appeared, gradually becoming impossible to see.
In the sky were layers of snow-white clouds, like endless cotton candy, appearing like a dreamlike paradise.
Dante Voss's Speed was very fast; he instantly passed through several layers of clouds and continued to fly upward.
Finally, he passed through another layer of clouds, and unlike what he felt before,
this layer of clouds had a tactile sensation, just like seawater, and there were huge creatures living inside it.
"This must be the Cumulonimbus, right? In other words, the Sea of Clouds!"
Dante Voss glanced casually at the creatures exposing their bodies above the Sea of Clouds and said lightly.
"Then Sky Island should still be above this, right?"
Dante Voss looked up at the countless layers of clouds that were still above.
However, at this moment, he sensed something. He looked down and saw a figure gliding rapidly through the Sea of Clouds, rushing toward Dante Voss's position.
"A Shandianan? This must be the descendant of that great warrior, right?"
Dante Voss's gaze was calm as he scrutinized the masked figure.
Although he also appreciated the Shandia People for keeping their promises, if the other party took the initiative to attack him...
"Bang!"
Beside Dante Voss, Wyper jumped up using momentum and fired a cannon shot in Dante Voss's direction.
Dante Voss watched the cannonball attacking him, his eyes narrowing slightly. The [Devil Power] on his body instantly transformed into an arm, quickly grabbed the cannonball, and threw it back at Wyper.
"What!"
Wyper watched the cannonball flying back at him with even greater Speed and was shocked, but he was currently in mid-air and couldn't dodge at all.
He had no choice but to fire another shot, hoping to intercept the damage.
"Boom!!"
The two cannonballs exploded in mid-air, and the massive shockwave blasted Wyper directly into the sea, disappearing from sight.
"Didn't die?"
Dante Voss didn't see the notification from the System, which confirmed to him that Wyper hadn't died.
But that was normal; a mere cannonball wouldn't necessarily kill a powerful warrior of the Shandia People.
However, Dante Voss couldn't be bothered to pursue; such an existence wouldn't necessarily bring him many slaughter points. The God above interested him more.
"Ah!"
As Dante Voss lingered here for a while, Luffy and the others flew up from the Sea of Clouds
