Una pena lo que le paso a Noland. Siempre dijo la verdad, pero murió porque nadie le creyó, y su amigo mantuvo la promesa hasta que la corriente disparo la isla al cielo. Los dos fueron grandes guerreros.

When a small part of an arc just carried it altogether
It was inevitable...

Those episodes about Noland made me feel really bad about the whole Shandian situation... His story is pretty sad, he died without getting to meet his friend once again and with everyone thinking that he is a liar, although he was telling the truth :/

Those 3 episodes were one of my favorites in this arc.

Freakin' A... I am balling my eyes out. Didn't expect this ep to get me good. I feel bad for saying this, but it's a good thing the King didn't get what he wanted. If the island was intact at that time, I feel the King would've killed the villagers due to greed; it would've destroyed the relationship between Noland and Calgara.

I'm so sad that those two didn't get to see each other one last time :( ...

This 3 episode mini story perfectly encapsulates One Piece

the writing for back stories ends up being better than the actual one piece story itself lol.

The true story of Noland the Liar left me in tears, not only was he branded a liar then killed for it, he also never got to reunite with his good friend. I'm so sad they never got to see each other again :'(. Their romance was so beautiful.

The nerve of Eneru/Enel destroying hundreds of years of precious history he knows nothing of. Luffy kick his a** already!

Episodes 187-189 were just so well made. I'd argue they were the best part of this entire arc so far. Honestly would have preferred more of them over all these back and forth fight scenes. 
And the little plot twists that did so much for this story in just 3 episodes was just epic.

So it's Noland crews that chopping the trees but because it already got infected by the plague.
It just a misunderstanding.

Damn what a heartbreaking backstory.
I'm not crying, you crying 😭

Great storytelling and nice touch to the storybook from Jaya. So sad though. I don't understand why Noland would tell the King there's a city of gold (unless he's just very honest) for the king to invade when Noland cared so much for the people of Jaya (despite the island being blasted up by the knock up stream). Either way, I enjoyed these episodes.

It was a great reveal about Noland. I thought we only heard about him in the beginning and nothing else.

in the vestiges of history the courage shown by the Shandians will be heard as long as the bell tolls.
Rather happy the two didn't meet .The king was upto no good and would have soured the relation between two great men.
Verifies and showcases why the Shandians have deep sheathed hatred for Skypiea.Attacked with all might without warnings when they were at their absolute low.
Wyper my man don't die ,as a descendent of Calgara you have a duty to fill

Well, besides all I'm glad the king couldn't reach Shandia. If he could, he would kill how many he needed to steal all their gold. Although OP characters react to things differently, the king's greed was shown so I don't doubt it. I am disappointed in Norland, he is not that naive to think the king would come in peace. When he heard the king's orders, I expected him to react in surprise, but he had a determined expression. Kinda confused on this side of the story, I wonder if this is the exact copy of the manga and if so, what is the mangaka's goal here.

Shandia's fate seems so sad. They clearly had a majestic civilization before something happened and their opportunities regressed, the folk living in fear of the outside. Their people were about to wipe out and afterwards their land flies to the clouds, with newer much more advanced enemies wanting their land before they can recover. No wonder they are antagonistic toward strangers. The village head telling this story to a young impressionable Wiper is tragic, his path seemed determined before he could understand the world around him. Now I understand him better. Anyways, these few episodes was a treat, they explain so much.

I gotta say despite what little time we’ve had spent with Noland and Kalgara are probably the best supporting characters that I’ve seen so far in One Piece. This episode was truly awesome I must say, it answered a lot of questions that I did have about Skypiea and I’m glad they decided to tell this before the final fight with Eneru because if it was shown after the fight then I don’t think there would’ve been a big impact like it did here.

Both those two died because they were regretting what had happened and they had promised to meet again on the same patch of land so long as the Shandians kept ringing the bell. I don’t think the Shandians would’ve won either way because the king would’ve probably raided and pillaged the gold for himself which there was no doubt what he was going to do if the island wasn’t missing and basically called Noland a liar and executed him. The relationship would’ve gotten a whole lot sour after that because Noland wouldn’t have wanted to live with himself if that ever happened.

Very well thought out in terms of a backstory and I really liked how each episode for this kept building and building on the last one. Not much to say but this episode was awesome, plain and simple.

It's so fascinating that although the skypiea arc is 50 episodes long (including the episodes on Jaya), this whole story only made sense 5 episodes away from the end. That's some impressive writing.
