Smiling, Paul was getting closer and closer to his immortal body. Another 5% and he would be to completely transform onto his second Zoan transformation.
Picking up the unconscious Crocodile, he took another punch at him for good measure and then flew off to the palace where King Cobra and the others would be gathered.
Paul: " I'm done, King Cobra prepare a set of sea stone handcuffs and report the situation to the world government."
King Cobra: " I, thank you, Paul and your friends, for doing so much to help us before it had escalated to the point where we lost more innocent lives."
Paul: " It was no problem. After hearing Vivi's situation, I was afraid that if I didn't help out, one of my crew members would've taken it out on me hahaha."
Paul looked at Sera who was currently glaring at him a little.
Sera: " Paul we had already taken care of the bomb. Should we take off now?"
Paul: " In a bit, gather everyone and come with me."
As Daz and Robin returned, Paul took them back into the staircase in the tomb of the kings where the poneglyphs were located at.
Paul: " Robin, although it may not be the poneglyphs that you were looking, hopefully it can lead you to some clues."
Robin was stunned at what she saw and went up close to the poneglyphs. After reading through the poneglyph, she became slightly disappointed at the information. The Information entailed only about the ancient weapon Pluton, it did not have any information about what happened during the 800 years of void. Seeing her disappointed look, Paul then had another thought. The Poneglyph that Luffy, zoro, and chopper accidently found. It shouldn't be far from where he found the kungfu dugongs.
Paul: " hmm, in that case there might be another location, come keep up with me"
Paul jumped into the sky holding Daz by the arms, while Sera and Robin used their devil fruit ability to fly. Flying over the wide desert, Paul could only look for it through luck, but luckily for him... he was feeling lucky. Then he saw a large rock in the middle of a desert area. He flew down towards that area.
Paul: " Lets check under the rock"
Paul and the crew went under and 'crumble' 'crumble' the floor fell. Landing inside the hole Robin looked at the large piece of metal block... it was another piece of poneglyphs. At first she did not show any excitement because she did want to be disappointed again. However, as she read the poneglyph, her eyes shot wide with surprise... this was what she has been looking for for her whole life.
Robin: " Kingdom of Arabasta, Year XXXX IM appeared from from the skies with a strong organization that were unrivaled in this world... we resisted for a long time... must create a weapon to rival IM."
As Robin slowly translated what was on the poneglyph, her body trembled and she fell to the ground. Although the poneglyph's translation was really broken, this was a start to her goal. She needed to find 8 more of these and then she would be able to understand everything. Robin looked at Paul.
Robin: " Thank you for show this to me."
Paul: " haha, no problem, it is what I should do as your captain. Now lets go back to our ship."
The four quickly returned to their ship. When they arrived, the three quickly became surprised at who occupied the ship. They turned to Paul, waiting for an explanation.
Paul: " hahaha, Kung-Fu Dugongs. They are a group of sea animals that follows a tradition of challenging people and becoming their disciple. During my travels, I encountered them and well, I figured they could be helpful and with some training, strong enough to protect our ship and help with the small fries haha. Brilliant right. Oh right, Sera since you used to train soldiers, I'll leave some of the training to you."
Sera: " Uhh, Okay."
Although it was unexpected and sudden, she became slightly excited at the idea of training her own troops.
Paul: " Alright, time to go to sky island now."
A few days after they left, the marines came and took Crocodile and his group, abolishing his title and arresting Crocodile for the crime of manipulating and causing discord in a country. After the arrest, news was sent out saying that Arabasta's young princess investigated the cause and with the kingdom's guards, defeated Crocodile and his organization, covering the accomplishments of Paul and his pirate group.
-------------------------------------
At Marine Headquarters
Sengoku: "Crocodile... after the privileges the world government had given him, he still goes and does this behind our backs."
Garp: " Sengoku... didn't I tell you this was a bad idea in the first place. However, this pirate crew... they are getting stronger by the minute, if we don't do something soon, he may became troublesome soon."

A week went by Jaya Island wasn't that far. Before going to sky island, Paul wanted to get a new skill.

They quickly arrived at jaya island and bought their preparations. Paul checked the ship's stocks and ship's damage and after going through everything he went towards where the log point faced completely upwards. The sky began to darken, the waves started to behave erratically, suddenly a huge upstream of water came up not far from their location.
Paul: " hold on tight, secure all of our stuff."
As Paul said that, a huge knock-up stream began to form right underneath them. Paul steadily controlled the ship to the proper location before it had emerged. 'fwoosh' the giant knock-up stream then took off with the ship along its sides. Going up stream, the crew was astounded by what was happening and was excited about seeing what Sky island looked liked.
As the ship began to tilt backwards, Paul unfurled the sails and the ship began to float and rise upwards until it penetrated the deep sky.
When the crew looked up and around, they saw an all white sea made of clouds.
Paul: " This is only 7,000 above the sea, when we reached 10,000 is when we have arrive fully at sky island. Let's get used to the atmosphere here first, before continuing forwards."
After a few minutes, the crew began to briefly adjust their breathing and grew more comfortable with the atmosphere.
Paul: " let's get going"
Paul looked around for the gate and then sailed towards it. When they approached the gate, an old woman with small wings on her back walked out from the gate door.
Amazon: " My name is Amazon, the gatekeeper and the person responsible for sending you to the upper half. The rule for enter is 10,000,000 extol for each person."
Knowing that this is a ploy for new comers.
Paul: " For extol, how much is it in beli."
Amazon: " Hohohoho, so it seems you are quite clever. 10,000 extol for one 1 belli"
Paul: " Since that's the case for the four of us it would be 4000 beli, does animals or pets count?"
Amazon: " No, it's fine. Alright, you can pass."
As she said that, a giant red shrimp came out from underneath and grabbed hold of their ship and took off in a pathway that led upwards. 'swoosh' not long after they flew out from the sea and clouds and landed on another set of sea clouds. The large shrimp dove into the sea and went back to where it came from.
Paul: " Well, while we are here, let's look for some things. In the future, I would like the sky islands to be my territory... Robin go look for information about a man name Enel or the goro goro no mi devil fruit. Daz, Sera, lets go look around the place."
