Knock Up Stream

The Knock Up Stream (突き上げる海流 [ノック･アップ･ストリーム], Tsuki Age Ru Kairyū [Nokku Appu Sutorīmu], literally translated as Tossing-Up Ocean Current) is a powerful pressurized water stream that shoots upwards to the sky from the bottom of the ocean. The blast is strong enough to send a ship and even one time an island straight to Skypiea.

First Appearance: Chapter 236; Episode 152

Creation
The Knock Up Stream is created by a giant underwater cave filled with gas. At some point in time, the gas pressure is too much and creates a crack in the ceiling, then a giant whirlpool is created from the crack. Once most of the gas gets free, the seabed explodes, sending a giant stream upwards. This event will happen only five times a month.
