_________ POV Narration_________
The journey towards the Sky Islands only took a week or two.
Enel spent those days rather calmly, sometimes going below the clouds to retrieve a newspaper and to hunt down another Sea King.
Bonney was known for her gluttony, and the fact that she looked younger now certainly didn't change that, although Enel felt it should have...
Enel was able to see more and more of the Government's public movements thanks to the Newspaper.
They were still parading Aokiji as the new Marine Hero, and Akainu seemed to be praised quite a bit too.
Sengoku was publically blamed for the failure in the war, but it was unlikely that the Government were punishing him, at least going by what Aokiji had already told him.
Although, Garp's imprisonment could be said to also be a punishment for Sengoku or a threat at the very least.
'If we are willing to arrest the Marine Hero, then you are not any more special.' It was a power move of sorts, that much was obvious.
And Aokiji's fame was rising by the hour, while Garp was slowly but surely being replaced.
It would take a really long time for the World Government to get rid of Garp's influence in the navy though.
The old man's retirement was not even announced publically yet, but the rest of the marines should've known about it by now.
Basically, every single marine that knew Garp would realize that something shady was going on.
Enel could tell that his rescue of Garp was going to mess with a lot of the World Government's plans, which only made him more pleased.
Bonney was currently still in her child from, still thinking of ways to escape from the long-earlobed pervert that had captured her.
She had tried to change herself into an old form, but Enel simply smiled at her and said 'Whatever suits your fancy, I don't mind either way.'
Which creeped her out even more, so she switched back to a younger form, as being old sucked and she didn't exactly like it.
To her, Enel's innocent comments throughout the journey made him seem like some type of sexual deviant.
The fact that weirded her out the most was that Enel was actually not yet taking advantage of her.
It made her think that Enel was like a cat, playing around with his prey as he prepared to eat it whole when it least expected.
The first few nights she only pretended to sleep, before tiredness took over her body and she eventually passed out during the day while eating.
She was rather shocked to wake up unmolested. But when she woke up the view was a lot more shocking...
In the distance, she was able to see two large islands standing above the clouds. The sun shining from behind her was also starting to set, placing a rather beautiful glow on the distant islands.
Enel smiled a bit and yawned when he noticed that she woke up.
He was a bit tired as he hadn't slept at all the entire time, constantly using his devil fruit to steer his ship while remaining vigilant at all times.
Since she was now awake, he also started whistling to calm his nerves for a bit. There wasn't much else he could do, constantly reading was tiring to the eye, after all.
His whistling managed to break Bonney out of her spell, as she came to the realization that Enel actually lived in the sky.
Who would've thought that the man called the 'Sky King' would actually have his residence on an island above the clouds?
She obviously had heard legends about the Sky Islands, but that was all that she knew about them, that they were legends, much like the city of gold.
Now, she was able to see it rather clearly, the island was quickly getting larger and larger in her eyes, as their ship was getting closer to it with each passing second.
Enel felt it in the distance, he was rather pleased to see how little had changed and he started wondering how Gan Fall and the others had been doing in his brief absence.
Throughout the journey, Enel noticed the odd behaviour from Bonney. She had also not really spoken to him all that much since their initial exchange. Only a few words exchanged here and there.
It was extremely odd, as Enel remembered her being rather opinionated in the show. But he decided not to think all that much about it.
'She's probably just stressed and tired, she also has no specific reason to trust me either...'
He could tell that she had hardly slept, as he was awake the entire time. Which only helped creep Bonney out even further.
'He's just staring at me while I'm sleeping?!' Was usually the thought flowing through her mind.
His whistling reminded Bonney of her situation as she wondered if getting down from the sky islands would be easier than just jumping off the ship in the middle of the ocean...
"We'll be there in a few minutes..."
Enel said as he slowly sat up from his throne, randomly throwing the newspaper he was holding overboard into the sea of clouds as he didn't break his gaze away from the Sky Island in front of him.
"Thanks for letting me know... Why are you taking me there, by the way?" She finally had the courage to ask.
After a few days of Enel not making any advances to her, she had somewhat managed to calm herself down.
It was good that he was playing around with her, especially if this gave her a chance to actually escape later on.
"Honestly, I'm quite shocked you only asked about this now..." Enel turned to her with a wry smile on his face as he wondered how to go about telling her that she was still technically imprisoned...
"I'll be honest... I don't want your devil fruit to ever get in the hands of the World Government."
Bonney instantly straightened up when hearing that, looking at Enel with even more weariness than before.
Enel was a bit confused at that, not that she had hidden her power in any way from him or the public, as she had used her abilities rather openly in the past...
Was she expecting him to not know how such powers could be abused? He who also had one of the strongest fruits in existence?
"Calm down. I am merely taking some... Precautionary measures. The second you stepped into the New World you got captured, so I likely can't trust you to go on by yourself..."
At this point, Bonney realised that the situation was a bit more serious than Enel simply wanting to take her to his house and 'take advantage' of her.
"I-..." Bonney wanted to retort, but she ended up clenching her teeth in anger a bit under Enel's cold gaze.
She couldn't exactly deny the fact that she was caught instantly.
It was a stroke of bad luck, but she had almost ended up in the possession of some greasy Celestial Dragons due to that bad luck, so it couldn't be ignored...
"I know you don't like this. I wasn't exactly expecting you to be enthusiastic about this either. But I'll need you to stay put at least for a while until things cool down, then you can go your own way..."
In truth, Enel said the arrangement was temporary only to calm her down.
He planned to befriend her properly during the time she spent there, to make her join him in his quest basically. Which would justify her spending more time on the sky islands and being out of danger.
Enel knew that it was a problematic idea that could go wrong, but he couldn't exactly do much else...
Well, chaining her up with seastone and telling Wyper to feed her from time to time would also work. But Enel wanted to keep that as a last resort for now.
Bonney could be an extremely useful ally with her ability. Enel had quite a few plans for the future, and if a few certain people could return to their prime, then these plans would go a lot smoother...
Enel had no way of knowing how difficult befriending her would be though.
Although she now knew more about his reasons, she still thought that he was a pervert and that it was only a matter of time before he did something 'shady'.
Enel decided to park his boat right outside his cabin, at the edge of Upper Yard(the island made out of the earth).
Enel could see that his cabin was mostly intact, and he could tell that there was no one really nearby.
"This is where we, mostly you, will be living for the following months. It's likely going to be a bit dusty so we'll have to start cleaning it up a bit..."
Enel got off his boat and tapped it with his palm.
The Boat proceeded to morph around Enel's hand and turn into a golden pair of gauntlets, the young Bonney fell on her ass, as she wasn't exactly expecting that to happen.
She found it a bit odd, feeling earth at her feet while so high up. She also swore a bit as she rubbed her behind.
"A warning could've been nice!" She said with an angry tone.
"... Sorry about that." Enel sweated a bit as he realised that they were probably starting off on the wrong foot.
'I was so used to Oven landing on his feet that I forgot other people might not be used to this type of thing...'
He then simply sighed and opened the door to his house, preparing for an hour or two of cleaning...
