At the invitation of the Shandian chief, Drake and Stella had stayed in the Hidden Cloud Village like this.

With just the effort of one banquet, the Shandians in the village had changed their attitude towards Drake.

Although these people had been stubborn to the point that it had been like they had been missing a string in their heads, they had also been especially simple and honest because of this. The goodwill that Drake and Stella had released had quickly won their response.

After having closed the distance in their relationship, Drake had also approached Aisa, the little girl who had awakened Observation Haki innately.

In the pirate world, although everyone could master Observation Haki through training, people who had innately possessed Observation Haki could be said to have been one in ten thousand, and they had been much rarer than Conqueror’s Haki.

The only four people who had been known to have this kind of qualification had been Queen Otohime of Fish-Man Island and her daughter, the ancient weapon Poseidon, Princess Shirahoshi, the great pirate Red Count Patreick Redfield, who had been on par with the Pirate King Roger and the others in the previous era with just his strength alone, and then there had been Aisa.

And the Observation Haki that these four people possessed had also been especially different, and not only could Queen Otohime hear other people’s inner voices, but she could also transmit her emotions to others through resonance.

Princess Shirahoshi could sense the specific actions of people outside of her field of vision, and as for her ability to communicate with sea kings, he didn’t know if it had been her power as Poseidon, or the power of Observation Haki.

Not only could the Red Count hear emotions, but he could even read memories.

And Aisa’s Observation Haki had also focused on the mental level of sensing, it was just that the range that this child could sense had been quite huge.

And as Drake had expected, this kind of power had originated from a special soul, and it couldn’t be learned. But it had also given Drake some reference, which he could use to integrate the abilities of Observation Haki into his own sensing abilities.

Drake had been very focused on searching and detecting abilities, so how could he have given up on Observation Haki, which could have been trained into the ability to foresee the future. Adding the ability to read ki and magic power sensing, his sensing abilities would definitely be even more comprehensive.

But Drake had already learned to adjust his mentality in the previous world, and he hadn’t neglected to enjoy his journey with Stella in the process of becoming stronger step by step.

The Hidden Cloud Village had only been the Shandians’ place of seclusion after all, and it hadn’t been a large sky island, and Drake and Stella had toured it all in less than half a day.

So the two had begun to explore the outside in the following days.

Seven thousand meters above the sea had been called the White Sea, and the other layer ten thousand meters above had been called the White White Sea.

The Hidden Cloud Village had been located on the White White Sea, and this place had truly been like the sea, with sea clouds being seawater, and thick island clouds making up islands within it.

The Hidden Cloud Village had been located on a small sky island, and Angel Island, where the Sky People had been living, had been the largest sky island in the vicinity.

Drake and Stella hadn’t explored in the direction of Angel Island, and had instead been moving towards the border of the White White Sea.

Speaking of which, there had been a kind of punishment on Angel Island, and that had been to put criminals, together with their ship, on island clouds, letting them drift on their own, which had been called "Cloud Float Stream."

Generally speaking, these criminals would have run into new sky islands and survived if they had had good luck, and they would have only been able to die of thirst and starvation because of a lack of food and drinking water if they had had bad luck, and falling from the end of the sea of clouds had already been considered a gentle way to die compared to that.

But Drake and Stella hadn’t run into many sky islands even after having found the end of the clouds, and most of the sky islands hadn’t only been small in area, but they had also been bare, not having anything.

But there had not only been a small amount of plants and animals on one of the sky islands, but there had also been some fragments of man-made buildings that you could tell had been man-made with just one look.

It had looked like this sky island had been fragments of a sky island that people had lived on before, and this had made Drake couldn’t help but recall that sky island that Enel had destroyed, Bilka, from the background information.

Stella had also found a fully functional sky-island-unique mode of transportation, a Waver, a special small boat that had used Wind Dials as its power source, here.

Drake had naturally declined this kind of mode of transportation with thanks, and Stella had instead experienced cloud sea surfing.

It really hadn’t been hard for Stella to control the Waver, and it had been about the same as learning to ride a bicycle.

Drake had actually wanted to see the other route to enter Skypiea, which had been called the Heaven’s Gate, which had been said that only one out of a hundred people could pass through,

But it had looked like Drake’s direction of exploration hadn’t been right, and he hadn’t been able to find the place that had been said to have been two or three sky islands away from Angel Island all along.

After touring around, Drake and Stella had still returned to the Hidden Cloud Village. But what the two had seen at first glance had been the Shandians, who had been organizing their equipment, looking like they would have launched an attack at any moment.

Drake and Stella had found the only person who had been calm, the chief, and they had learned what had happened from him.

Aisa had heard that the sounds on Angel Island hadn’t been right, and the sounds of a large patch of God’s Squad had disappeared, and Enel had also launched a lightning strike attack that had been called God’s Judgment on someone he didn’t know.

Wiper and them had naturally realized that this might have been an opportunity for them to take back their ancestors’ land, so all of the members of the guerrilla army had begun to prepare for battle, and they would have immediately launched an attack as long as they had discovered that the situation had changed.

Drake had naturally known what had happened, and it had probably been that the Straw Hat Pirates had arrived on Skypiea through the Knock Up Stream.

Angel Island had been under Enel’s rule, and it had been inevitable that Luffy and the others, who had never been restrained, would have a conflict with him.

Just the entry fee of 100,000 beli per person had already been enough to make the Straw Hat Pirates become Enel’s enemy... after all, the one who had been managing the money on the ship had been that money grubber Nami.

According to what the chief had said, the Straw Hat Pirates should have just had a conflict with Enel right now.

That guy Enel had had a strange perversity apart from being arrogant.

He had always regarded himself as a god, and the only way that he had been like a god had been his indifference towards everything apart from himself. So he had wanted to destroy Angel Island even after having destroyed his hometown.

Everything that had happened on Skypiea had probably just been a game to him before going to the "Limitless Earth."

And whether it had been the pirates who had come from the Blue Sea, or the Shandians, or even his own subordinates, the God’s Enforcers and God’s Squad, they had just existed to amuse him.

The battles that these people had been putting everything into had just been a game to him, and this game had been completely under his control.

And then he had run into Luffy, who had been outside of his control, and he had been beaten black and blue because his ability had been completely countered.

Which was to say that Enel had still been in the state of watching a show right now, and it hadn’t been too late to go over and see the ugly state of his world view collapsing.

Thinking this, Drake couldn’t help but tell himself that he couldn’t truly become a person who had just wanted to watch the fun, and he had then set off for Angel Island with Stella to watch the show.

Angel Island had been the main stage of the story after all, and a lot of things and culture that had been unique to Skypiea could only be seen there. What’s more, there had also been the Shandora ruins of Upper Yard, the golden bell and the Poneglyph had also been there.

How could he not have gone there on a trip to Skypiea, and Drake had definitely not been going over just to watch the show.

But a bolt of lightning had transformed into a human form before Drake and Stella, who had just entered Angel Island not long ago, and had been holding Skypiean coconuts.

The white turban, the long earlobes, the bare upper body, and the drums that had been strung together in a ring on his back, it had been Enel, the god who had been ruling Angel Island right now, the ability user of the Goro Goro no Mi.

"So you’re also people from the Blue Sea, have you also come to participate in this game?"

That appearance of being so arrogant had made Drake feel that the coconut juice in his hand wasn’t that tasty anymore, revealing an expression of caring for a mentally handicapped person.

When you drag others onto the chessboard, you should at least confirm whether the other party has the ability to flip the chessboard over, right!
