Suddenly, a loud boom echoed from the direction of the Trial of the Swamp.
Ye Shi's Observation Haki extended over, and she saw a battered Wapol. It seemed he had defeated Gedatsu using a Repel Shell. Before long, Wapol walked over and said with a look of exhaustion, "I didn't disgrace myself, did I?"
Ye Shi encouraged him, "Of course not. Here's a reward for you." A Water Bottle Bullet shot out from forging sky. Seeing the bullet, Wapol instinctively wanted to dodge, but his battered body had no strength left. He could only close his eyes and wait for the pain to arrive.
After a moment, Wapol found his body feeling warm. Opening his eyes, he saw that his injuries had already begun to heal. Only then did he realize that Ye Shi didn't intend to kill him.
Seeing Wapol try to dodge, Ye Shi knew he must have misunderstood. However, Ye Shi herself loved seeing such expressions, so she didn't warn him. Kuina was somewhat speechless; she knew Ye Shi's mischievous streak was acting up again. She had been frightened when she first saw Ye Shi pointing the hour hand at her, but she was used to it now.
"Only the old man is left. Why don't we go take a look and help him out?" Nami had gained new power, and sparks of electricity flickered constantly in her hand. A flash of light jumped along with the movement of Nami's fingers.
"That sounds good. After all, the old man is an elderly person; we should respect the elderly and cherish the young a bit," Ye Shi said casually. She sensed the two fighting near the giant vine, and the golden bell happened to be right on it.
The group soon arrived near the giant vine. Gan Fall and Shura were clashing in the sky. Ye Shi shouted toward the two, "Only you two are left. Do you still want to keep fighting?"
Shura couldn't believe it. In his eyes, the invincible God had been defeated by this young girl, and it seemed he was the only one left of the Four Priests. In that moment of distraction, Gan Fall found an opportunity. Riding his Pegasus, he charged forward and knocked Shura down with a thrust of his spear.
Shura still wanted to get up and fight again, but Kuina's wado ichimonji was already held against his neck. "The God has already fallen. Do you still want to keep struggling?"
Faced with the group's encirclement, Shura was very sensible and raised his hands in surrender.
At the base of the vine, Nami curiously asked Ye Shi, "Didn't you say there's gold on the Sky Island? Why don't I see anything?"
Ye Shi replied to Nami, "Haven't you noticed that this island is very similar to the Jaya we visited before? Except the trees are a bit taller. Also, the other half of the house Cricket lives in is right here. If you put these two pieces together, you'll find that the island as a whole looks like a skull."
Ohm, who had been knocked unconscious by Kuina, also woke up. Facing the people who had defeated Eneru, he honestly chose to surrender. After waking up, Ohm heard the group discussing the gold.
"If it's those golden metals, I know a bit about them. Eneru had us use those metals to build a ship. I can lead you there." Facing Ye Shi, who had killed the God, Ohm was extremely cooperative.
"No rush. We'll go take down the golden bell first. Let's get this straight: except for the golden bell, we're taking all the other gold," Ye Shi said.
Using'Shave' and 'Moonwalk' interchangeably, Ye Shi reached the very top of the vine in a matter of seconds. The golden bell stood quietly on the vine. No one had rung it for 400 years. Although the surface of the bell was entangled with vines, its exquisite craftsmanship and massive size were still breathtaking.
Stroking the golden bell, Ye Shi sighed, "Truly a pinnacle creation of the ancients. I'm almost reluctant to leave you here." Despite saying that, Ye Shi had no intention of taking away something that was a spiritual pillar for others. "The sound of the bell after 400 years should be rung by everyone together."
As the golden bell slowly sank into the City of Devouring Time, the 'Taurus Sword' carved out a tunnel. With one step, Ye Shi arrived at the bottom of the vine.
Kuina looked at Ye Shi emerging from the Spatial Portal with some surprise. "What is this? Since when could you do this?" "It's a new skill, of course. But this move has some limitations; I can only go to places I've been to before, and as the distance increases, the consumption also gradually grows."
After landing on the ground, Ye Shi was in no hurry to take out the golden bell. Instead, she called out to everyone, "Let's go. We'll head to the poneglyph first. That's the place the Skypiean Shandian tribesmen have been protecting. Placing the golden bell there can be considered returning it to its rightful owner."
Wapol was quite surprised. As the bravest warrior of the Skypiean Shandian tribesmen, he only thought about reclaiming his homeland and didn't know his own duty. He was somewhat confused that Ye Shi, an outsider, knew so much.
Ye Shi saw through his confusion but didn't explain further, only saying, "I know much more than you can imagine."
