• Three days after leaving the Fromm Kingdom, Naito sensed that his growing number of Dream World hubs had brought the Dream World closer to reality and evolved his projection ability.
• Naito created a stable, lifelike double of himself, then flew into the sky to test the power, finding that his projections were larger and stronger for the same energy.
• Naito projected a ripe banana into his hand and squeezed it to test how real his new creations felt.

• Naito asked Golden Lion to sell him the project behind his rage drug, and Golden Lion wondered how Naito knew about his secret research.

Naito sold the Golden Lion his islands, IQ, savage beasts, and research data, then secretly returned to his warship. There, he discovered he could animate a Mimicry Projection by placing part of his consciousness inside it, creating a true clone.

• Naito agreed to buy Shiki’s islands, IQ, savage beasts, and research data for five billion Beli, with another five hundred million for delivery to the New World.
