Purple Diamond Star, Paradise World, Stargate World.
Because of the Stargates, it only took two or three short months to travel from Terra to the Imperium's frontier, making Purple Diamond Star the backyard of Terra's elite!
Unlike other worlds, Paradise World did not have to undergo excessive industrial development to bear exorbitant taxes, turning the entire planet into a desert or covering it with radioactive chemical pollution.
Paradise World even had only one major Hive City, used to house reactors, space elevators, and the primary administrative bodies.
Every other part of the surface retained its original landscape, with scattered resort cities spread across the wilderness.
Here, you could see seas, great lakes, grasslands, and forests.
Ice fields, snowfields, wetlands, and marshes.
All kinds of wildlife—birds, herd animals, solitary creatures, predators, herbivores—covered the entire planet!
Private villas were everywhere: villas set in the wilderness, flying villas floating in the atmosphere atop anti-gravity platforms, and villas inside glass domes beneath the sea.
These villas could house an aristocrat and his family, with more than a dozen servants to attend them and dozens of atmospheric anti-gravity aircraft, allowing those aristocrats to live out their vacations in comfort!
For only around 500,000 Thrones, one could enjoy nearly a full year of perfect vacation life here!
Meritorious soldiers and civil servants from Terra were often rewarded by their superiors with a year-long vacation here!
At this very moment, in the edge surface-city district of Purple Diamond Star's only Hive City, beneath bright summer skies, Li Qinwu strolled down Paradise World's lush green streets. He wore flip-flops, Patrick beach shorts, and no shirt over his muscular torso, along with sunglasses identical to Kizaru's. Behind him followed a group of underlings dressed in Bikini Bottom fashion!
"Wow, this place is really bustling!!"
