(Y/N)'s POV

I slowly opened my eyes.

"F-F*ck..." I groaned in pain.

I carefully stood up.

"(Y/N)...)" A soft voice called.

"R-Robin!" I went to her and helped her sit down.

I looked around and saw Zoro. I walked towards him.

"Zoro..." I gently called but he's still unconscious.

•••

"Nami's taken by Enel." Robin informed.

"What?" I asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, Luffy's there." Robin.

"Oh thank goodness." I said, relieved.

•••

Many minutes later...

Luffy tossed Aisa and Pierre at us.

"Look after these guys!" He commanded.

He then went back up. I notice the huge ball of gold where his arm was stuck.

We tried to stop him but he's hardheaded.

We see a huge ship in the sky.

Nami and Usopp has arrived.

"Nami!" I hugged her.

"(Y-Y/N)..." Nami.

"I'm so glad you're okay!" I said.

"Damn it! Everyone's been taken out! If only I'd been there!" Usopp said after seeing the others lying on the ground.

Also, Sanji was electrocuted.

"Wait, Aisa. Where's Luffy? Wasn't he with you?" Nami asked.

"Luffy just went up the vine to rescue you from Enel!" Aisa.

"Crap! We just missed each other?" Nami.

"He left just now. We tried to stop him, but..." Robin.

"Talk about bad timing! There's no time left, we have to escape!" Usopp.

"Go ahead! I'll go after him on the waver! You guys just get to the Merry somehow!" Nami.

Suddenly, there was a huge lightning appeared right in front of us.

"Those lighting bolts are huge! We're going to end up as sky dust if we stay here!" Usopp.

Nami started her waver and said, "Everyone! Hurry to the ship! I'll get Luffy and bring him back!"

"Alright! Got it!" Usopp.

"Hurry, Robin! (Y/N)! We have to carry these guys to the ship somehow!" He added.

It was a good timing because Zoro and Gan Fall woke up.

Wyper also woke up.

"He's far above now. It's only a matter of time until his ship reaches the top of the vine." Robin said.

"What is it Enel wants there?" Gan Fall asked.

"The Golden Bell at the top." Robin replied.

"A bell?" Gan Fall.

"A golden bell? Is that what you said?" Wyper.

"Yes..." Robin.

"What're you guys talking about?" Usopp.

I was even confused about what they were talking about earlier, and I still don't get what it's all about.

"You also spoke of the bell before being hit by Enel's electric attack. So he's going after it? Where exactly is it?" Wyper.

"Hey! Wait! This is no time for that! You saw that thunderbolt! We're gonna fie if we don't get outta here!" Usopp said but everyone ignored him.

"Somewhere near the top of this giant vine." Robin replied to Wyper instead.

"How? How do you know that?" Wyper.

"Hey! We promised we'd wait for Nami back on our ship! She's gonna be back with Luffy any time now!" Usopp.

"He's right, Wyper!" Aisa.

"The ruins of Shandora in the layer below us...This vine pierces right through the very center of the city." Robin.

"Oh, geez! Look! I dunno if it's ruins or what, but it's been blasted into pieces! We could be next, you know!" Usopp.

"A map I found in the ruins indicated that the Grand Belfry that held the Golden Bell was located in the city's center." Robin.

"Are you completely ignoring me?" Usopp.

I chuckled a little bit and said, "Give it up, Usopp."

"In other words, the shock from being thrust upward by the vine might have thrown the bell even further skyward." Robin continued.

Wyper suddenly fell to one knee, struggling to stand up.

"Wyper! What are you planning to do? Don't tell me you're gonna climb the vine?" Aisa.

"Everyone! Get away from the vine! Something's falling!" Usopp warned.

A huge vine dropped right in front of us, fortunately without harming anyone.

"The tip of the vine? What happened above?" Robin.

"Hey, now! Don't tell me Luffy and Nami fell with it?" Usopp.

"Wyper! No! You can't in your condition! You're all beat up! And even if you do climb up, there's no way to reach Enel in the sky!" Aisa.

"It's...It's directly above! The bell that great warrior Kalgara sought!" Wyper.

"Kalgara?" Aisa.

"Yes. That's what our true goal is! Enel! I refuse to let you have it!" Wyper.

There was a huge black ball forming in the sky.

"This is a nightmare! This isn't something you see in real life!" Usopp.

"What more is he planning to unleash?" Gan Fall.

Enel is truly a God.

I've realized this many times and I want to share it with you all: I'm truly amazed by all writers. How do they manage to do all these things? How do they know what the next scene should be? How do they maintain the characters' characteristics and traits throughout the entire story? I've experienced this firsthand, and it's really challenging. I need to decide where to place this scene, who will be with (Y/N), while considering all the possibilities. I need to research many things to ensure this fanfiction is realistic. For example, I can't just claim that fire is faster than lightning because, when I googled it, it shows that lightning is faster than fire. So, if you're reading this and you're an author/writer, kudos to you! Keep writing! And for those who want to try writing stories and such, go ahead and give it a try!

Btw, I've realized that (Y/N) could melt the gold in Luffy's arm. But meh, let's stick with the OG plot.

Thanks for the 3.6k reads!
