"Heaven's Gate?"
"I feel bad on, it's like we're going to die."
".... Yeah, it's totally unexpected. Maybe we're actually dead already?"
"Really? If that's so, then this strange world can be explained."
"What! We're already dead!!?"
"Heaven~~~ so funny!! We can finally get our thoughts here!!"
"Look, sobody is coming out!"
The old granny looked at them and asked," Are you here for..... sightseeing or...…... Here to fight?"
She is a short, very elderly woman with an extensively wrinkled face. She has purple hair, put into two buns. She has thin arms, and wears a pink tunic, and has small white wings on her back like all Skypieans.
Amazon was the elderly gatekeeper of Skypiea and inforr at the entrance to Skypiea known as Heaven's Gate. She let people in even if they could not pay her extol toll, but purposely failed to tell those who did not pay about the consequences for entering the city.
The old granny took a couple of pictures of them and nodded after seeing Xin's face, she felt helpless seeing that the young man would waste his life coming here.
"To fight?" They are all confused hearing what they said, they don't know what fight she is saying but they felt that it was going to be fun if they joined.
"Look! She has wings!! So that's what an angel looks like!! She looks like dried sour fruit candy!"
"If you want to enter, you need to pay a toll, each mber of this ship needs 1,000,000,000 Skypiea Currency to enter."
"That's the law so you need to follow it."
"1,000,000,000 Skypiea Currency soo height!? But we don't have that kind of currency." Nami pitifully said.
"Then you can use your own Currency, 1,000,000,000 Skypiea Currency is equivalent to 100,000 Blue Sea Currency."
"Then we need to pay 800,000 Belly for everyone?"
"No, it's only 700,000,"
"But we are 8 people here, how can it be 700,000?"
Amazon pointed to Xin and said," That handso boy is exempt."
"Why? Sanji asks angrily.
"Because he is Handso."
"So you can do everything even having a fee for the toll just being handso?"
"Yes." Amazon dead serious said.
"Damn it!!." Sanji envious looks at Xin, he curses himself for not being born as handso as Xin.
"Even if you only ask 700,000…. We can't still pay…. We don't have any money." Nami lies while crying poorly.
Vivi knows everything, this girl took almost half of the Alabasta Treasury for herself but she is actually telling them that she is poor.
"You don't have money? Don't worry, you can still go up." Amazon said.
"Really!!!"
"~~ and also, if you don't want to go up…. It's okay too, I'm not a guard, nor a soldier. I just want to know your intention of coming here."
"We co here to search for the unknown," Xin said.
"Good, I hope you find what you are looking for."
Below them, a gigantic shrimp appears, it grabs the ship to both sides and lifts it up above the white sea.
"W-Whats this!!!"
"Kyaaa a monster!!"
"Seafood!! Let's beat it."
"Don't damage the ship okay!"
"Don't worry, that's White Sea's Special "Speed Shrimp" he will deliver you all up safely," Amazon then looked at Xin and said.
"Take good care of your friends, don't do not interfere on what you see up, an be safe,"
"Thank you," Xin smiled, leaving Amazon to the Gate of Heaven alone.
Amazon on the other hand still did not expect to see the person they were waiting for, but seeing his young face made Amazon understand that the person they are waiting for needs ti to grow up, it's not ti for him to do his job, so made a gamble.
A gamble that will affect her life if the higher-ups learn what she did, but she still chooses it, she chooses it not because of Xin's appearance but because she knows that he is the one who will help them in the future.
'Hope you help us just like the ancestor said.' Amazon helplessly sighted and slowly wa;l inside of the post hoping for the great future to finally co.
...…..
anwhile 2 layers above Xin's group, a particular group is actually waking in the jungle.
"Captain, are you sure there's a Gold City here?"
"That's right Cap, we already walked around for 3 days and we still did not see it."
"Just follow , I still rember where the Golden City is. If we can get even one of the pillars of the city, we can get rich easily."
"Yes, Captain Buggy!!"
Captain Buggy, who fears dying, actually arrives at Skypiea one month in advance, but he did not use the original way but the shortcut that his old captain used.
Because of Xin's rubbery, Buggy dont have any choice but to go up to pick so gold for his Pirate Group expenses, he doesn't want to co but he can't wait for his crew to die in hunger so he chose his 2 right-hand man to go up to pick so gold.
Of course, he also knows what kind of danger is waiting for them. That's why he chose the secret way to prevent anyone from knowing their existence.
Everything is fine but he discovers that the secret root is to hard to enter, it takes too much ti to go up by only three of them, but still eh is in great hope to take chunks of gold for his own use, he can only hope that he will not see Xin again after he goes down.
