Summary:
Robin reads the writings he finds in the main ruins of Shandora. She reads something about a bell that reminds her of the bell Noland mentioned in his notes. He then realizes that the Poneglyph was brought to this city long ago when it was fighting the “enemy” and that the city was destroyed because of it. From Noland’s notes, he infers that the Poneglyph was with a bell that was hung in the middle of the four altars. Instead of finding a bell there, she finds a beanstalk. She concluded that the bell never made it to heaven. Enel appears and comments on the magnificence of Shandora as well as Robin’s archaeological skills. He then tells her that he already took the gold. Robin asks him if he also took the golden bell. Enel seems confused, so Robin concludes that he doesn’t know about it. Enel asks her what she learned from reading the script. Robin tells him that there was a big bell, but it didn’t have to go to heaven.
Enel then recalls a 400-year-old story of how an island flew into the sky with a beautiful sound called “The Song of the Earth”. Both are excited about the possibility that the bell is still in the sky somewhere, though Robin is more excited about the possibility of finding the Poneglyph. Meanwhile, Conis and Pagaya find one of the soldiers who worked for Enel in a life-threatening condition. The soldier tells them that Enel plans to send Sky Island into the Blue Seas and escape on the Ark Maxim. Enel strikes them with lightning, but Pagayo manages to push Conis out of the way in time. Zoro discovers that Holy is listening to someone by accident and tells Holy to buckle down. Enel sends the Upper Ruins crashing into the cloud below by destroying the supporting cloud with his lightning. Conis rushes to warn everyone of Enel’s evil plan.
