The Thousand Sunny sailed under clear skies, the crew enjoying a rare moment of calm. Luffy lounged in his usual spot, hands behind his head, while Zoro dozed off nearby. Nami stood at the helm, her sharp eyes scanning the horizon, when suddenly a strange fog began to roll in.
"Fog? In this weather?" Nami muttered, furrowing her brow.
Chopper clutched his medical bag tighter. "This feels... eerie."
As the fog thickened, a distant silhouette emerged—a small island, barely visible through the dense mist. It wasn't on any of Nami's maps.
"We should check it out!" Luffy grinned, jumping to his feet. "Maybe there's treasure!"
"Or danger," Zoro added, opening one eye. "We don't need unnecessary detours."
Sanji lit a cigarette, exhaling slowly. "Danger or not, we can't sail blind through this fog. Let's anchor and investigate."
Robin, flipping through an old journal, chimed in. "There are legends about islands that appear only under certain conditions. This could be one of them."
Intrigued, the crew agreed to dock. As they approached, the air grew colder, and an eerie silence settled over the sea. The island loomed ahead, covered in dense jungle, its shoreline dotted with ancient, weathered statues.
"These statues..." Robin whispered, stepping off the ship. "They're older than anything I've seen before."
Luffy, undeterred, dashed ahead. "Let's go! Adventure awaits!"
But as the crew followed, a low rumble echoed from the island, as if something ancient had awakened.
To be continued...
