"The entrance to the Grand line…is up in a mountain"

"A mountain?!"

The straw hats reunited in the kitchen to talk about how they will go to the Grand line.

"That's right, I didn't believe it at first, but the guiding light pointed toward reverse mountain on the red line" The navigator explained

"We have to run into a mountain"

"No, there's a canal here" She pointed to the map on the table.

"Canal?! Don't be ridiculous! Canal or no canal a ship can't sail up a mountain"

"I think it is possible" Madara added.

"What!?"

"Remember the Grand line is a place that can bypass common sense, a canal that goes up in a mountain isn't farfetched"

"Madara is right, I hear the Grand line is a mysterious place where everything can happen" Sanji replied

"I want to go to the mysterious mountain!" Luffy yelled.

"Guys, the storm's gone all of the sudden" Usopp looked to the window

"Yeah, it's calm"

"What? That's impossible, we're supposed to ride the storm right up the mountain" Nami doubted

"It is a nice weather" Zoro made a pleasant place.

"I agree with you" Madara looked to the sky

The navigator made a shocked face "Oh no, we're in Calm Belt! Quick lower the sails and start rowing, we've got to the get back to that storm"

"Why "row", this is a sail ship" Luffy doubted the navigator.

"Just do what she says Luffy, she must have a reason, a good captain needs to trust his navigator, so start rowing quickly" Madara looked to the vicinity

"Fineee" Luffy frowned and went with Usopp and Sanji to start rowing

"Thanks, Madara" The navigator gave a relieved face to Madara

"No need to thanks"

All the sudden, the boat starting shaking

"An earthquake?" Luffy asked

"We're in the sea! You fool!" Sanji shouted

"This presence!" Madara looked down

"What happened uncle?"

"I feel, hundreds, no, thousands of them" Madara blinked

"Of what?" Luffy decided to sense what preoccupied his uncle and made a shocked face.

Without answering, the boat started elevating from the sea. Below them, a swarm of monsters started appearing.

"Neptunians…" Madara looked to the monsters "This is their nest!"

"They're huge!"

"WE'RE GONNA DIE!"

The monster below the Merry sneezed, throwing the straw hats back to the storm

"We're saved" Nami hugged the mast "We're back to the storm" She stood with shaky legs before regaining her balance "Now we only have to sail up the mountain, this ship is already riding the current towards the Grand line, so all we have to do is steer, if this ship misses the canal, it will break up and be swallowed by the sea"

"Look I see the mountain!" Luffy pointed to the giant wall that appeared in front of the Merry. They all saw the canal going up a mountain

"So, it was true we have to sail up a mountain" Zoro looked dumbfounded to the canal.
