Chat group: Taming Kuina, controlling Cynthia

Page 89

The scene before my eyes was beyond all reason.

Gu Beichen smiled and shook his head: "The world of One Piece is full of the incredible. Trying to explain it with science would only make it seem ridiculous."

As the Sword God approached the ocean current, Kuina shouted anxiously, "Watch out! We're about to crash!"

Zoro's face turned pale, and his throat bobbed.

It's too late to regret following Kuina's foolish ways now; a slight misstep could lead to utter destruction.

"Hold on tight! Secure yourself!"

Gu Beichen quickly used his telekinetic power to envelop the entire ship, while simultaneously alerting Zoro and the others.

As for the projections from group members, there's no need to worry.

"what--!"

The ship hurtled rapidly into the ocean current, and Kuina couldn't help but scream.

Zoro didn't say anything, but his face had turned ashen.

"rise!"

Just as the ship was about to be capsized by the opposing airflow, Gu Beichen used his telekinesis to vertically adjust the ship, making it parallel to the ocean current, and rapidly ascended with the help of the airflow.

Several times during the journey, the boat veered off course, but he forcibly pulled it back using his telekinetic powers.

He also took the opportunity to secure any loose items on the boat.

"It's so exciting!"

Tony and the others cheered excitedly.

"This world is truly amazing."

"Indeed, such a spectacle is almost impossible to see in other parts of the world."

"The anomalies in the pirate world don't stop there—the Red Line, Fishman Island, the Sabaody Archipelago, and those islands in the New World... the climate and magnetic field are just ridiculously chaotic."

"Indeed! This place doesn't seem to have been formed naturally. It's more like the traces left by Devil Fruit users after a battle in ancient times, which have evolved into what it is now over a long period of time."

"Makes sense!"

Others echoed.

Gu Beichen agreed with everyone's opinion, and he himself had similar thoughts.

The ship ascended rapidly, reaching an altitude of 7000 meters in just a few minutes, passing through the clouds and arriving at a vast expanse of white sea.

"arrive?"

Guina looked around and felt a little short of breath; the air here was noticeably thinner.

"We're not there yet. This is the White Sea at 7000 meters. To get to the Sky Island, we need to ascend another 3000 meters."

After Gu Beichen finished speaking, he used his telekinesis to control the ship and steer it toward the rising ocean current he had sensed.

Suddenly, a Shandian warrior, wearing wind-blown boots and carrying a cannon, charged towards them.

"Oh, this guy doesn't seem to have any good intentions!"

Tony and the others exchanged amused smiles.

Just as the man entered firing range and prepared to fire, Gu Beichen sent a telekinetic shockwave flying at him.

"boom!"

The other person seemed to have hit an invisible wall, letting out a scream as they clutched their bleeding nose and retreated swiftly and decisively despite the pain.

"They run pretty fast." (cdaf)

Yue Buqun was somewhat surprised.

"How outrageous! We didn't provoke them, yet they attacked us on their own initiative?"

Guina said angrily that her impression of the Shandians had suddenly worsened.

"Don't mind him, he's just a clown."

Gu Beichen reassured them, then steered the boat into the rising current, allowing it to carry them upstream.

The group soon arrived at a magnificent stone gate, inscribed with the words "Gate of Heaven".

Four characters.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, the shutter clicked, and an elderly woman was seen taking pictures of them with a camera.

"Tourists from Qinghai, right? 10 billion Kyrgyzstan entry fee per person."

The old woman said it bluntly.

Tony muttered to himself, "It would have been so much better to just say 10 Berries. Why go through with such a huge number..."

The old woman ignored him and kept her eyes fixed on Gu Beichen and his group.

"Here you go, this is 50 Berries."

Gu Beichen simply took out the banknotes and used his telekinesis to deliver them to the old woman.

He had taken the money from the pirate ship when he was in Magic Valley Town; it was enough for them to squander for a while.

"You can go now."

The old woman accepted the money, and as soon as she finished speaking, a fast shrimp darted out, grabbed the hull, and carried them rapidly upwards.

"boom!"

Two minutes later, the boat broke through the sea and was brought ashore.

The express shrimp quickly left after completing its mission.

"Huh...huh..."

Kuina and Zoro gasped for breath, "The air here is so thin."

Fortunately, they quickly circulated their energy and the discomfort disappeared.

Gu Beichen merely frowned, then quickly returned to normal.

This little thing had no effect on him.

"This is amazing! There are actually floating islands at an altitude of 10,000 meters? Scenes that only exist in anime and fantasy in other worlds actually exist here!"

Zhang Sanfeng exclaimed in amazement.

"The sky seems closer."

Someone agrees.

"The clouds are clearer now."

"Those must be Sky Island residents, right? Their little wings are really interesting. They don't seem to have any practical use. I wonder if they've degenerated or if they were always like that."

Gu Beichen used his mental power to search the entire sky island but found no trace of Enel.

But the next second, he suddenly turned east and revealed a playful smile: "You've come at just the right time."

"What do you mean?"

Guina looked completely bewildered.

"Have you found Enel?"

"That's right,"

Gu Beichen explained, "He is leading his men this way."

"Let's observe first, and then make our move when the time is right."

After saying that, he cast an invisibility shield on the ship and flew eastward with Kuina and Zoro.

Ye Gucheng and Dugu Qiubai quickly caught up with Gu Beichen, and the three of them soon arrived at an island cloud, where they could see two groups of people facing off in the distance.

"Isn't that Enel?"

"And Ganford! It seems we've arrived just in time."

Although they were younger than they remembered, Enel and Gan Fall's distinctive features still made them instantly recognizable.

"3000 Volts Thunderbird!"

"Pierre, get out of the way!"

The battle started instantly.

Enel launched the first attack, and his four priests led their men to charge at Ganful's guards.

The scene suddenly became intense.

Gu Beichen noticed that although Enel's current strength was not as great as when he met Luffy later, it was more than enough to deal with Gan Fall and his guards.

Within minutes, the battle turned into a one-sided affair.

"Is Sky Island really going to be destroyed in my hands?"

Ganford was struck by lightning and suffered burns in many places. He looked up at the sky in pain and sighed.

He felt incredibly guilty when he thought about Enel destroying Birka Island.

"My Lord, run! As long as you live, there is still hope!"

A soldier shouted.

"court death!"

Enel sneered and raised his hand to strike down with lightning, but at the critical moment, a calm voice rang out: "Dan Kong!"

The lightning was blocked by an invisible barrier, producing a crisp cracking sound.

This sudden turn of events left Ganford and his soldiers stunned.

Enel narrowed his eyes and turned towards the direction where Gu Beichen and the others were hiding: "I've felt something was off for a while now, so you've finally shown yourself? Qinghai people."

Gu Beichen could have hidden himself very well, but the moment he made his move, he revealed his position, allowing Enel to become aware of their presence.

"Let's go!"

Gu Beichen smiled, stopped watching, and teleported directly to the center of the battlefield with his companions.

"They saved us?"

Ganford's soldiers looked at the group of people who had suddenly appeared with a mixture of gratitude and confusion.

Ganford asked warily, "Who are you?"

"People from Qinghai who are just visiting the island don't need to worry about it."

After giving a brief response, Gu Beichen turned his gaze to Enel.

The two locked eyes, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.

Enel tried to read Gu Beichen and the others' thoughts, but found that he could not see through them at all.

This surprised and alarmed him.

"Hello, Enel."

Gu Beichen greeted him with a smile.
