[8:45AM, DAY 3 AT SEA POST-IZUKO ISLES]
Luffy sits on the figurehead, looking out to sea while rubbing his tummy, satisfaction evident. The others are dispersed about Nami is checking her maps and instruments busily, Zoro and Reiko are training, clashing with the sound of steel on steel echoing across the deck, Robin and Reina discussing some books animatedly. Sanji twirls in with some tea for them and pours it with a dramatic flourish. Franky is doing a maintenance check with Usopp, checking every nook, cranny and board and refueling the cola. Brook is playing a lively tune to match the others business as they go about. Meanwhile, up in the crows nest Gigi and Jinbei are on watch, talking quietly.
Some time later, Luffy squints and brings his hand to shield his eyes then jumps up "ISLAND! I SEE A ISLAND!" he shouts excitedly, bouncing excitedly. The others come from all sides of the deck they were at to come see, Nami looks at the island and back at her log pose on her wrist and nods, "We're right on track!" she says. The island is still quite a distance but its general dark shape is seen in the distance, and as they approach, Gigi and Jinbei in the crows nest have a better view of the towering, jagged mountains, with snowy peaks and green valleys with little to no visibility in the fog that rolls between the mountains.
Soon, it becomes visible to the others too as they approach, the mountains seeming to rise as they get closer. Some more time later, the Sunny docks at a small dock with the mountains towering into the sky. As they dock, an old man comes from the little house not too far from the dock. He is short with a white beard and hat covering his bald head. Jinbei holds Luffy back from running off and Reiko occupies Zoro to keep him from wandering off as Nami followed by Gigi, goes to meet him, the dock master presumably.
"Pirates are ya?" the old man asks. "Yep, but we aren't here to cause trouble" Nami say. "Trouble usually follows us, ." Gigi mutters and Nami glares at her but the dock master fortunately didn't hear. "Don't matter anyway. If ya wanna go to the town, just follow the path down to hell." He says, pointing toward the path between the two closest towering mountains. Nami shifts, clearly not liking the sound of that. The dock master hands her a map and as she opens her mouth to ask more questions, Luffy appears after finally breaking free, with the others not far behind, "path to hell? That sounds so cool!" he says excitedly. The dock master laughs and turns around, "Bahahaha, Yeah it is." he says and smirks "See ya on the other side then." he says, giving a lazy wave and starts heading back toward his house. "COOL!" Luffy says, "Wait! Sir! what do you mean?!"Nami asks chasing after the dock master who ignores her so she comes back, dejected and sighs, "I guess we're going down the path to hell.." she says. Gigi slings an arm around her shoulders, "Don't worry too much. I'm here to protect you." she says and Nami sighs. With that, Nami opens the map and looks at the trails marked by the dock master and finds the one marked as "Path to Hell" in red and they begin walking.
