(Y/N)'s POV

The morning came and everyone was awake.

I can't help but recall my dream from last night. It was a child wearing a hoodie and running happily around the Merry.

(A/N: According to One Piece Wiki, the human form of a Klabautermann only reveals itself to someone that truly cares for their ship. We all know it's Usopp. Merry did not really reveal itself to (Y/N), rather it was a dream unlike what Usopp experienced. Idk if it makes sense. I just want to add this dream part because I love Going Merry so much.)

"See! It's just like I said! Someone was here!" Usopp.

"The Going Merry's been repaired!" We shouted.

"I saw it. It wasn't a dream, after all!" Usopp said then cried, relieved?

"The mast was completely snapped off, but now it's all fixed!" Nami.

"Yes. Just standing this heavy thing up must be hard work by itself." Robin.

"Still, I hate to say it, but...it sucks." Sanji.

(A/N: How dare you 🫵🏻🫵🏻🤬🤬🤬)

"There sure are nice people out there!" Luffy.

Usopp and Chopper succeeded in bringing the Merry down to the cloudy sea. Sanji and Zoro also helped.

"Now, then. Here's the map. The search team will go this way, straight south...This "right eye" should have some sort of ruins, so watch out for enemies and bring some gold back!" Nami.

"You make it sound so simple..." Zoro.

"I'd love to investigate the ruins." Robin.

"What? You keep talking about the gold, but you're not coming?" Luffy.

"No way! It's scary!" Nami.

I'm speechless.

"Meanwhile, we'll leave the island in the Merry. We'll be in danger, too, you know. We'll head for the seashore ruins as fast as possible. Let's meet up there, and then escape from Sky Island! Then we'll be super-rich pirates! We'll be able to buy whatever we want!" Nami.

"Hurray! I'll be able to eat all the meat I want!" Luffy.

"Escape, huh? Sounds good to me!" Usopp.

3rd Person's POV

The crew was split in half.

Chopper, Zoro, Luffy, Robin, and (Y/N) are tasked c to bring back the gold.

Nami, Usopp, and Sanji are the ones who will maneuver the boat to the seashore ruins for escaping.

"Hey! Where are you going, Zoro? That's the wrong way! West is this way!" Luffy points to another direction.

"Geez! Your horrible sense of direction is such a pain!" He added.

"West? That's east!" Chopper mumbled. (Y/N) heard it and burst out laughing.

"Come on, Luffy! Why don't you ever listen to anyone? It's the 'skull's right eye', so we got to go right! Are you stupid?" Zoro.

"I think they both are..." Chopper.

"We're heading south, so could you two tell them it's this way?" Robin.

"You got it!" Chopper.

"I'll go tell Zoro." (Y/N) said.
