"Is that the entrance to the Grand Line? How spectacular!"
Looking at the entrance of Upside-Down Mountain where countless tons of seawater formed an upward current, Nami said in amazement.
"What a narrow waterway, Boss, go and collect the canvas."
Kalina put down the monocular in her hand and shouted to Dewey.
"I see."
Dewey ran to the mast, grabbed a rope and pulled hard.
The stretched canvas was suddenly rolled up like a roller blind.
The sailboat began to slow down, but did not stop.
The sea water under the boat was moving slowly as if attracted by a magnet.
"Be careful, the boat is about to enter the waterway."
Nami turned the rudder and warned loudly.
With Nami's excellent driving skills, the sailboat caught the ocean current formed by the moving sea water and successfully entered the waterway.
As soon as we entered the entrance of Upside Down Mountain, the sailboat was like a sea train entering the rails, heading towards the top of Upside Down Mountain at a very fast speed.
"Wow… Look, the East China Sea has become smaller. It's so beautiful!"
Kalina stood at the side of the ship and looked in the direction of her hometown. The fog created by the ocean currents made the East China Sea look like a fairyland, extremely beautiful.
"What are you looking at? Don't fall down, or you will die."
Nami held the rudder tightly, fearing that if she was not careful, the sailboat would crash into the wall next to it and the ship would be destroyed and everyone on board would die.
"Thanks a lot."
Dewey patted Nami's shoulder to relieve her stress.
The girl now is not yet an outstanding 18-year-old navigator, and her confidence and courage are not as great as in the original novel.
Nami didn't say anything, but stared straight ahead.
The sailboat quickly reached the top of the mountain, then entered the descending waterway and headed downward at an extremely fast speed.
A strong wind blew and the ship suddenly dropped rapidly, causing Kalina, who was standing on the side of the ship, to fall and somersault on the deck.
"It hurts so much…"
After getting up, Kalina covered her head which was accidentally hit and came to Dewey obediently.
At this time, a vast sea appeared in front of the three of them.
"Is that… the Grand Line?!"
Before I had time to take a look, the sailboat had already rushed out of the waterway, crashed heavily into the calm sea at the foot of Upside Down Mountain, and drifted forward for some distance.
Dewey secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he did not meet Rab.
It seems that they are very lucky.
"Boss, what should we do next?"
The sailboat stopped at the foot of Upside-Down Mountain because the sails had not been lowered yet. Nami, who was entering this legendary sea for the first time, had no idea what to do.
"Just look in any direction, and the record pointer will give us the answer."
Dewey took out the recording pointer, put it on Nami's wrist, and said, "There are seven magnetic forces extending out from Upside Down Mountain. We can choose any route and the magnetic force will guide us to the first starting island."
"I see..."
Nami was slightly surprised.
Putting down the canvas, Nami steered the sailboat in one direction.
"After the recording pointer collects the magnetic field, always pay attention to the direction of the pointer. Nothing on the Grand Line can be trusted. You can only trust the recording pointer in your hand." Dewey reminded.
"I see."
Nami nodded vigorously.
At this time, Kalina suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, Boss, do you have any goals or dreams for entering the Grand Line? You can't just be a bounty hunter forever, right?"
"Of course, bounty hunting is only a part-time job."
Dewey jumped onto the railing of the ship's side, looked at Kalina and Nami, and made up a lie, saying, "I found a treasure chest left by a pirate on an island. The treasure contained the Flame-Flame Fruit and a navigation diary of the Grand Line."
"From the diary, I got a lot of information about the Grand Route."
Dewey said: "For example, this sea area is only the first half of the Grand Route and is called – "Paradise."
"You must be kidding…"
Nami's face turned slightly pale, and she said, "The Grand Line, known as the graveyard of pirates, is actually just a 'paradise'!?"
Kalina was also startled.
"ah..."
Dewey nodded and said, "The real pirate graveyard is in the "New World" in the second half of the Grand Line."
"I see, boss, your goal is the 'New World'?" Karina suddenly realized.
Dewey nodded again: "Yes, there is what I need there."
Hearing this, Nami, who was about to say something, immediately stopped the words that were about to come out of her throat.
Kalina said no more.
You can be willful at other times!
But entering the "New World" is the captain's will. If they are willing to follow Dewey into the Grand Line, they should be prepared for this.
As if seeing their fear, Dewey smiled and comforted them: "Don't worry, this sea is not as scary as you think. We will be bounty hunters and travel at the same time. Once we find the devil fruit that suits you, no one will be able to stop us."
"Hehehe… I'm not afraid as long as the boss is here."
Hearing this, Kalina immediately showed her usual confident smile.
"Uh-huh..."
Nami also nodded repeatedly, and her fear of this sea area also dissipated.
After all, the reason why they felt uneasy was because the people of the East China Sea spread rumors and made the Grand Line sound too terrifying.
After overcoming their fear, they were no longer afraid of this sea area.
Dewey nodded secretly. With such psychological quality, he was worthy of being the best in the world in a certain field.
————
Perhaps because of the special magnetic field of Upside Down Mountain, no matter which route you take, you will encounter a climate change called "baptism".
The sailboat had not sailed far before Dewey and his companions witnessed the bad weather on the Grand Route.
Storms, brutal sun, snowstorms…
In just two hours, Dewey and his two companions experienced the cycle of four seasons.
The weather came so suddenly that even if Nami could sense the weather with her body, she would not have had time to avoid it.
"Boss, I finally understand why you don't dare to go out to sea alone."
Kalina, who had finally finished shoveling the snow, was so tired that she almost lay down on the deck. She lay limply on the sun lounger and complained to Dewey who was silently shoveling the snow.
Dewey smiled and said, "Fortunately, we didn't encounter hail. It seems that we are lucky."
"hail!?"
Nami and Kalina's faces turned slightly pale, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as they looked at the clear sky again.
