To the end of the sea [One Piece]

"Real or false..." Zoro said blankly, looking at the unreasonable sight in front of him.

"Sea water...really..." Eina murmured to herself.

"It's flowing backwards!!!" Usopp exclaimed.

The Straw Hat Pirates have now arrived at the foot of Upside Down Mountain, the only path leading to the Grand Line. They had only listened to Nami's description until now, but at this moment they finally saw this real spectacle.

The red soil on both sides outlines a sea current that goes straight upward to an unknown distance. The turbulent water is flowing upward with incredible power.

"Ah ah ah - we're about to collide!" Luffy screamed and jumped off the ship, blowing up his belly into a balloon and placing it between the ship and the red earth continent. He successfully used the force to make the Golden Merrie sail onto the rising sky. ocean current.

What is it like?

Although there was a sense of weightlessness backwards, and the oncoming wind pressure blew all of Eina's long hair flying behind her head, it was hard to suppress the excitement and novelty.

And I thought that I would dive downward from the same height in a while...

Extreme sports enthusiast Ikegawa Ena said that it is exciting just thinking about it!

"Oh oh oh! We're going down!!" After rising for an unknown period of time, the ship began to level off - and then tilted dangerously towards the bow.

Time seems to be like a horror movie that has been slowed down several times, and the exciting moment is coming closer and closer...

"what--------!!!!"

Everyone pulled their necks and roared! The sudden fall caused the adrenaline to surge to the extreme in an instant. No matter whether it broke the throat or not, the huge feeling of weightlessness made people scream at the top of their lungs uncontrollably.

Ena felt that her body had left the deck, and she held on to the railing to prevent herself from falling off.

This is no longer part of sailing! This is a ride on a skyship!

After they shouted until their throats hurt, they slowly came back to their senses.

The initial feeling of falling passed, and they were back on the current, only this time they were rushing downward.

"It's so cool..." Eina slumped on the railing and gasped, "Not everyone has the opportunity to ride on a 'pirate ship' of this level..."

Nami laughed. Luffy was so excited that he wished he could just jump down and reach the Grand Line.

"By the way, Nami -" Eina said loudly against the hunting wind, and took out a note from her clothes, "This is for you! I bought a phone bug in Rogge Town before, but I haven't told you the number yet! "

Nami stretched out her hand and reached for the note: "Okay! But we shouldn't need to use this to communicate for the time being!"

Ena just smiled at her.

Who knows, she always thought it would be better to leave some contact information in advance, in case something happens and she gets separated...

just in case.

----------------

"That...that's..." Zoro opened his mouth wide and looked ahead in astonishment.

"Miss Nami, a black mountain appears in front of you!" Sanji said loudly.

"How is that possible!" Nami shouted anxiously, "After the Upside Down Mountain, you should be at Twin Capes. There can be no black mountains!"

"But that's really..."

"No, it's not a mountain." Eina narrowed her eyes calmly, "That's... a living body."

"What!! There is actually a huge monster!!" Usopp burst into tears, "Is it a sea monster! Or a Neptune type! Help Ena, I don't want to die -"

Ena picked up Yugiri: "Don't be afraid of Usopp! If it's a sea monster, just kill it!"

"Ena, it's time to stop. Don't let Usopp lead you away!" Nami Sharktooth furiously said, "What nonsense are you talking about! If we can't stop, we will be crushed! Sanji! Zoro! Usopp ! Full right rudder!”

"Okay!" The three people ran into the cabin.

"Ena, go furl the sail! Roll up the ropes and take out the spare oars!"

"Hey hey-"

Everyone on the boat was busy for a while. Sauron and the three of them tried desperately to change the course, but due to excessive force, the rudder broke.

At this time, the black mountain finally revealed its true face.

Luffy opened his mouth exaggeratedly and looked at the tall creature like a mountain. The wide mouth, the scarred head of the head was pointed upward, and the small eyes on both sides seemed not to be focused on them.

That's a whale as big as a small island!

"So big——!" Luffy exclaimed, "What is it!"

"It's an island whale." Eina accurately recognized its species. "It's a whale that lives in the Western Sea, and it's also the largest whale in the world. But why does it appear here..."

Zoro caught the message in her words.

Since it was a whale that lived in the Western Sea, Ena recognized the species of the other person without any hesitation.

Unless she was a marine biologist before she lost her memory, or a fish-loving chef.

Otherwise there is only one explanation.

"I know!" Luffy exclaimed happily, "As long as we can stop the ship, right?"

"Wait, what are you going to do-" Zoro yelled through gritted teeth.

Soon they knew what he was going to do.

There was a loud bang, and Luffy carried the cannon and fired directly at the whale's body. The recoil produced by the shells indeed brought them to a stop, but...

"Are you an idiot?!" Nami shouted desperately.

But it was too late. The whale was attacked, whined slowly and slowly, lowered its head at a speed that seemed slow to ordinary people, and then——

Open your big mouth to suck them all in! !

"Help!!" Usopp and Nami shouted, everyone hugged part of the ship, and Luffy was thrown out of the whale's mouth.

Eina looked in horror at the unfathomable depths of the whale's throat, like a bottomless black hole, trying to suck her in, suck her in...

She suddenly felt that she had lost control of her body, as if something was opening deep in her soul. She let go and flew into the void in front of the ship.

She heard Nami and Sanji calling her like crazy, but she disappeared from their eyes in the next second.

The world was spinning for a while, and she felt as if her internal organs were about to be squeezed out of her throat.

After flying for an unknown amount of time amid dizziness and vomiting, she felt herself being thrown face down into the biting cold.

She couldn't open her mouth, and her eyelids gradually became heavy. She was only wearing a thin spring shirt, and cold water had seeped into her clothes, causing her to slowly lose consciousness.

so cold...

Someone come and help me...

Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp...

------------------

Sanji here has gone crazy. He pulled on the railing and screamed Ena's name into the air, but no one responded. Nami cried and called her together with Usopp, and the fear of not getting an answer gradually made the two of them tremble.

Only Sauron, although cold sweat broke out on his head, still gritted his teeth and observed the situation they were in.

Although I don’t know why Ena disappeared out of thin air, their current situation is not optimistic.

"Calm down!" He shouted at the other three people, "We can't take care of Eina now, let's first think about how to get out of here before we can save her!"

Sanji rushed over with red eyes and grabbed him by the collar. The two people who were always bickering now actually became tense. He stared at Zoro: "If something happens to Ena..."

"You should first think about whether you can find her alive." Zoro was unmoved. How could he not worry about the safety of his companions, but now that Luffy was gone, if he messed up, everyone might die.

Oh, if Luffy is here, I might still have to rely on him to calm people down...

Sanji's chest heaved, and he finally let go of him dejectedly, lighting a cigarette to calm down.

"I understand, what should we do now?"

Zoro stared at him and sighed, then began to look around and inspect.

Usopp mustered up the courage to comfort him and Nami: "Didn't I say before that Ena's fruit ability is space? It may be that the fruit ability is out of control or something... I believe Ena will be fine."

Nami sniffed: "And Eina gave me her phone number before. I will contact her after we are out of danger!"

Sanji nodded calmly and said nothing.
