Ken decided to spend another day at the Skypea before leaving. In the original story, they had to run away for fear that the people of Skypea would be angry at them for looting the gold. But here, the people of Skypea were happy that Luffy and his crew were able to bring peace.
The Jaya tribe's people genuinely advocated peace after talking with Cricket. He managed to calm them down and said it would be better for both tribes. Of course, the previous hatred couldn't just be wiped away, and it would take generations to achieve proper peace, but at least this was the start.
Meanwhile, Robin had returned after she got to see the other poneglyph under the golden bell. She got to know about the Poseidon and how she would find it on Fishman Island. Of course, she also saw the writing beside it. Roger left the trail, saying that they would complete the history.
This time, Robin wasn't as naive as she was in the original story. She had heard a lot about Roger from Ken and knew that someone named Oden helped Roger write those words. Seeing the written version made her more zealous about knowing the history.
After having a grand banquet and taking gold items out of the stomach of the huge snake, they were ready to return to the sea. Well, not everybody was ready to go. Cricket and his two friends decided that they would be here for some time to settle the two tribes in peace.
Nami had bright eyes when she saw all the gold. Though technically speaking, Vivi could make gold with her body, but that would take too much time, and the gold content here was enough to make their crew rich. Merry needed a huge repair, and they had decided to repair their ship on the next island.
Ken pitched the idea that they needed a shipwright for their journey, and Luffy was quick to approve a new nakama if they could find a decent one. After packing everything up, Ken proceeded to open the bifrost again.
This Merry was yet another makeover. This time, they didn't need someone to pull. They needed a brake on their wheels, and thus it was modeled by Ussop accordingly. He put a lever on the handle that could help the brake system.
Ken had to admit that Ussop really had a very creative mind!
They bid their goodbyes to Conis and some of the friends they had made in Skypea and set off on their way. Conis had been really helpful to them, so Vivi gifted her a portable solar charger and a music player that also had a mic. She could record her own music and even music made by others and listen to it.
The sun would charge the player. She thought it was some kind of expensive thing, so she denied it at first, but Vivi said
"A little bit of food in my stomach is enough to make these. Plus, making this gives me a lot of practice."
Conis didn't know what to say and just thanked her. Nami also gave Conis a magical pouch where she could keep her things. She was overwhelmed, to say the least.
The Log Pose had already been settled, and now they were on their way to the next island. Ken wondered if they would meet the Foxy Pirates. The problem of landing on a military base in the anime was out of the question, as he would never let that happen with the Bifrost under his control.
The only problem were the Foxy Pirates. This was a classic example of someone who had great devil fruit but was just a useless nobody. Merry landed right on the blue sea without any hitch while coming down. Merry didn't suffer at all.
After landing on the sea, the ship went on its way, following the Log Pose, but after going a few distances, the crew finally encountered the thing that Ken feared. The foxy pirates Ken was almost on his way to decimate the ship and get along, but it was Luffy who got curious and wanted to see what the deal was with the ship.
"Luffy, you deal with them. Don't drag me in." Ken said.
"Ken, these are just pirates; why are you running away from them?" Luffy asked.
"You will know soon." Ken mumbled and decided to shut himself in under the deck and start practicing his haki.
Meanwhile, the foxy and the straw hats communicated for the first time, and other crew members instantly understood why Ken wanted to get rid of them in the beginning. Due to Luffy's foolishness, they were dragged in to play a useless game with the Foxy pirates.
The whole game sequence went on for a whole day, and the Foxy Pirates only won once. These pirates weren't ready to handle the huge boost that Ken had provided them with different characters, and none of them stood a chance.
Ken kept an eye on them even though he was practicing diligently on his own. He also noticed the change in Zoro and Sanji in the competition. Zoro was more stoic while competing, and Sanji had actually started progressing in his character. Though it was just by a single percent, it was better than the 0.1% he used to do before.
A single percent jump showed that Sanji was ready to let his past fears go. After winning the game, they again set sail. While leaving, Ken didn't bother to be merciful to them and blasted their big ship to pieces using the Almighty's push.
After 3 days of voyage, they finally saw an island from afar. The crew was overjoyed to see the land again. Being on a ship for a long time was a boring job, especially for the women, so they were thankful to see land once again. But as they got closer, Ken had a very serious look on his face.
His Observation Haki had made him hear the sound of snores from a person on the island, and he knew who his guy was.
