Sea Clouds, also called Ocean Clouds, are large water-like clouds that form seas in the sky.
Overview[]
Sea Clouds, as well as Island Clouds, are created when an element contained in the Seastone called 'pyrobloin', ejected into the air by volcanic eruptions, comes in contact with water vapor.[2] The density of the water vapor determines whether a sea cloud or an island cloud will be formed. Both these types of clouds are not normally able to survive on the Blue Sea.[3] Vegapunk, however, developed an island-wide air conditioning system that controls and regulates Egghead's climate, and has created Island Clouds and Sea Clouds above the island.[4]
One can almost sail on sea clouds as if it were water, except that sea clouds are slightly less dense, meaning things that are dropped into it will sink faster than in normal water. Another difference between sea clouds and seawater is that there is no sea floor. However, they still affect Devil Fruit users like a regular body of water would.[5] These clouds form two known seas: the White Sea and the White White Sea.
Fanciful creatures inhabit these clouds. In order to adapt themselves to a buoyant force that is less than normal water, they evolved their bodies in order to lose density: some became flat or adopted a balloon-like anatomy.
Most of the sea clouds seen in the series so far are located above the Imperial Cumulus, an ancient and extremely dense mass of clouds.
White Sea[]
The White Sea (白海, Haku-kai?) is the lower part of sky ocean, located 7000 meters above the Blue Sea, comprised of Sea Cloud. It also has strange, rubbery clouds that bounce objects off of them and can be used as trampolines for those who are creative.
There are different ways to get to the White Sea from the Blue Sea. The only way that has been shown so far is the unorthodox and dangerous way in which the sailors have to take a Knock Up Stream.[1] Alternative routes mentioned by Gan Fall include the High West and island-hopping, both of which come with their own dangers.[6]
Known locations in the White Sea:
White-White Sea[]
The White-White Sea (白々海, Hakuhaku-kai?) is the upper part of sky ocean. It is located 10,000 meters above the Blue Sea. Skypiea (among other sky islands) is located here.[7]
