"Did you just say Sky Island? You mean an island that is in the sky?" Mashira, out of nowhere, got extremely excited and landed on their ship. The Saruyama Alliance had been on the lookout for weird things such as this and thus got excited because he thought these people went after fantasies.

Soon Mashira started talking like crazy with Luffy, who had been released by Ken. They both got excited, and soon Ussop was back with random things from the ship. Mashira was surprised to see this. One could just walk on air, and the other turned from a bird to a racoon.

"What a great racoon." Mashira commented.

"I am a reindeer. Can't you see my antlers?" Chopper shouted back.

"Chopper, now you can turn into any animal you want." Zoro commented back. Everyone nodded their heads in that direction. Ussop and Chopper had come back with a broken skull and a map. An old map that had Skype written on it. This made the crew very happy.

Surprisingly, this time there were no huge shadows that scared the shite out of everyone in the sea. It seemed like the butterfly effect was so prominent that even the huge shadows of the people living in Skypea didn't show up. Ken was a little disappointed as he wanted to prank his friends, but it seemed like it wasn't possible.

Mashira gave them a permanent log pose and told the straw hats to go to the Jaya island and meet Mont Blanc Cricket. With the permanent pointer, they sailed again, as Mashira wanted to take away the parts of the ship for further research. Luffy didn't stop them, and they soon set sail. Soon the outline of Jaya was visible. Ken got serious as the island approached. He had been waiting for this island for quite a long time, and his vibe slowly became serious.

"Nami, did you make what I wanted?" Ken asked Nami out of nowhere.

"You mean that godawful coat? Yes. Here it is." Nami came up with a black cloak that had red clouds. Yes, this was the Akatsuki cloak, and he had specifically asked Nami to sew him one since Nami knew how to make clothes using her magic.

With the cloak came the iconic one eye mask, which he too asked from Ussop.

"Ken, why do you need this?" Everyone was surprised. None of them had any idea what the cloak meant, as Luffy wasn't there when Akatsuki came out. Only Ace and Sabo knew of the cloak, but they never bothered to discuss such small things with Luffy, and neither did Ken.

Ken didn't answer as he slowly donned the cloak and put on the mask. Somehow now Ken has changed from a sunny guy to one of the most serious guys there ever was.

"I will be away for some time. We will meet near Mont Blanc Cricket's home." With those words, he took out his Mjolnir and flew away.

"Ken, come back. Take me with you." Luffy shouted, but by that time he had already flown away.

"What just happened?" Everyone was surprised by Ken's sudden behavior. He just wore that depressing dress and proceeded to just fly away. What the hell was wrong with him?

"He never looked so serious before." Sanji said as everyone saw the face, which had turned grave when he wore that dress and that one-eyed mask.

"Is there something on the island?" Zoro said, as he had seen where Ken had flown off. As if to prove his point, a huge crane suddenly fell on the deck of the ship. The crane was dead by the time everyone came close to it.

"What is this? A dead crane?" Chopper asked.

"Someone shot it." Ussop said as he looked at the crane.

"But there is no boat nearby," Vivi said.

"Someone shot it from the island." Luffy said this as his observation Haki did feel like someone shot at him. It was very vague since the shot was not aimed at them.

"How could someone shoot from so far away? Even in my binoculars, I can hardly see the island."

"Did Ken go to meet the one who shot? Was he angry that someone killed a crane?" Chopper said.

"Don't be ridiculous. We eat these things." Sanji said. Everyone was still surprised by what Ken did. Normally he was the most laid-back guy and always listened to the captain, but today he just flew off. This meant the problem was something that went beyond the orders of the captain.

Actually, Ken went on his own mission. A mission that he had been thinking of doing for quite some time. Ken flew to Jaya and landed near a forest that had tall trees. And on the thick branch of one of the trees sat a very tall man who wore a weird hat with pointy ends and a monocle on his right eye.

"Van Augur, Sniper of Blackbeard Pirates." Ken spoke in a very serious and different tone.

"You are?" Augur suddenly saw a ray of light falling just near the place he was sitting and having a great time.

"Obito Uchiha." Ken replied. Augur jumped off the tree and landed near him. He had never seen a man with such a weird mask. But the moment he looked into Ken's eye, he took a step back. He had never seen such an eye before. An eye that was red in color had three toes. He clenched his long rifle and was ready to take action because he could already feel the animosity of this new guy.

"Do I know you?" Augur asked.

"No, but I know you." Ken said as he suddenly threw a kunai towards Augur with extreme speed. This was where Augur showed his marksmanship. The way Ken threw the kunai, at that same speed, he shot his long rifle. The bullet crossed paths with the kunai, and it deflected from its path and flew away from his head.

"Oh, you know Haki." Ken had a smile when he said that.
