"By the way, Lord Uya also possesses a peculiar aura, though it's rather frightening."
Is this it?
Uya casually stretched out his palm, and a small, golden, glassy sphere immediately appeared. This was none other than Yu Uya 'Ame-no-Murakumo Sword, which could be transformed at will.
"This is it, it's so beautiful!"
Shirahoshi looked at the spherical, golden-colored object. Although she felt a frightening aura emanating from it, it wasn't in the shape of a sword, so it actually looked quite beautiful, like a priceless treasure.
Even Shirahoshi, the Shirahoshi princess who had seen all sorts of rare treasures, showed a hint of amazement when she saw this glass-like round bead. Neptune, the king of Fish-Man Island, standing beside her, was also somewhat amazed.
"I can sense the presence of the Ame-no-Murakumo Sword. So this world isn't actually a whole realm lower; in fact... it's only half a realm lower?"
A thoughtful expression appeared on Uya's face.
Having defeated all Four Emperors and gained a general understanding of the peak power of this world, Uya originally thought that the ultimate power of this world was one level lower than that of the Six Paths. However, it now seems that the power of the Ancient Weapons, such as Uranus Pluton, Poseidon, is only half a level lower than that of the Six Paths.
Although it doesn't reach the level of touching the Truth-Seeking Orb, which is the Six Paths Power, it is still able to sense it.
This is already quite remarkable. You have to understand that even Whitebeard and Shanks couldn't sense the Six Paths Power.
If Uya were to release Truth-Seeking Orb, even if Whitebeard and Red-Haired Shanks used their Observation Haki to sense them, they wouldn't be able to detect anything special. They might not even be able to sense the existence of the Truth-Seeking Orb. They could see them with their eyes open, but if they closed their eyes, they would find nothing there.
As for Shirahoshi, although Uya didn't test it, it's estimated that she should be able to sense the Truth-Seeking Orb.
Unfortunately, just sensing something doesn't mean you can touch it, and even if you can touch it, it doesn't mean you can step inside.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the distance is only half a step; that very half step is a gap that even a hundred Uranus Poseidon combined could not overcome.
Moreover, Uya's power is not even at the ordinary Six Paths Level, but at a higher and deeper level, possessing the power to create and destroy worlds.
Just as Uya was pondering, suddenly, from afar, a dark shadow flashed over, drawing an arc, and fell diagonally directly towards Shirahoshi.
"Um?!"
Uya and Ain looked at the same time.
However, Uya didn't move. Instead, Ain flashed into the air and suddenly kicked out, instantly shattering the dark figure.
It was a sword, which was shattered by Ain's attack imbued with Armament Haki.
The fragments scattered instantly, and Uya's gaze turned cold. He reached out and grabbed at the air, and all the fragments solidified. They then instantly gathered together and landed in Uya's palm, before turning into powder and falling to the ground.
"Ah!!"
Shirahoshi finally realized what was happening and couldn't help but gasp in surprise, a look of fear appearing on her little face.
The next moment, almost instinctively, she hid half of her body inside the Hard-Shell Tower.
She had already almost half her body out of the Hard-Shell Tower, but now she crawled back in, only showing half her face as she peered through the door, displaying a weak expression.
"That damn bastard, don't let me catch him!" Ain's face showed extreme annoyance, this time even greater than before.
"No need."
Uya glanced at the frightened Shirahoshi, then at Ain, and spoke calmly.
Uya was originally planning to deal with this situation, but before he could do anything, Vander Decken threw another sword at him, right in front of him.
After letting out a cold snort, Uya turned to look at Shirahoshi Shirahoshi, smiled slightly, and said, " Shirahoshi, would you like to see the sky and the sun?"
"I want to, but..."
Shirahoshi huddled weakly behind the door, looking pitiful, clearly terrified by the sword that had just flown towards her.
"Don't worry, with me here, no one can hurt you." Uya smiled faintly, turned to look at Neptune, and said, "King Neptune probably doesn't mind either."
Sky and sun?
This is... taking Shirahoshi to the sea?!
Neptune's heart skipped a beat, but he dared not refuse Uya. After much deliberation, he realized that if Uya really wanted to do something, there was nothing he could do to stop him. He could only sigh inwardly, silently praying for Shirahoshi while nodding to Uya.
"Then... I'll leave it to Mr. Uya to take good care of Shirahoshi."
Seeing that Neptune had agreed, Shirahoshi finally relaxed a bit and crawled out of the Hard-Shell Tower again, but she still looked a little pitiful.
Ain, standing to the side, was also surprised that Uya was actually preparing to make a move. She was rather envious of Shirahoshi. If Uya were to make a move, not to mention a Vander Decken, even a Four Emperors pirate crew would be wiped out!
However, despite her envy, she couldn't possibly be jealous of Shirahoshi. Shirahoshi's weak and frail appearance simply didn't inspire any jealousy.
So she jumped onto Shirahoshi's shoulder and sat down, grinning at Shirahoshi, "Don't worry, Shirahoshi, since Commander Uya said no one can hurt you, then you're absolutely safe."
Uya has never failed to do what he said. Even when he said at Marine Headquarters that he wanted to visit the Four Emperors, he eventually did it, and defeated all of Four Emperors to reach the top of the sea.
"Um."
Seeing that Ain said the same thing, Shirahoshi's fear gradually subsided, replaced by a hint of anticipation. She said, "Are we going now? I can't wait! I've never been to the sea before."
"I'll go and order someone to prepare the bubbles right away."
Seeing this, Neptune took a deep breath and prepared to turn around and prepare the coated bubble to send Uya and Ain across the sea.
However, upon seeing this scene, Uya suddenly shook his head.
"The sea? Bubbles? No need for all that trouble! To see the sky, you don't need to go all the way to the sea; just a few steps and you'll see it."
Uya's words immediately made Neptune stop in his tracks, looking completely bewildered, while Shirahoshi also looked at Uya with some odd curiosity.
Ain, however, suddenly realized something and couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking to herself that Commander Uya was definitely going to do something reckless again.
Sure enough, in the next instant, Uya casually waved his hand, and a gravitational force suddenly rose up, instantly engulfing everyone present and sending them flying upwards.
Before Neptune and Shirahoshi could react, they had already arrived at the very top of the Ryugu Palace, then passed through the first layer of bubbles, and reached the very edge of the sky Fish-Man Island. (To be continued.)
