It had been a week since they arrived in Skypiea. Including the days spent sailing on the sea, nearly two months had passed since they departed from the Tru Kingdom.
Now that the Skypiea matter was resolved, the next step was to quickly establish the space portal.
Once back in the Tru Kingdom, the other end of the portal could be activated, officially connecting the two locations and creating a direct route to the military base on the floating island.
Two days later.
"Daiki, are you sure this is the right location for the portal?" Anos asked curiously, looking around.
The area was surrounded by lush trees, and just ahead lay the edge of Upper Yard, which was also the boundary of all of Skypiea.
"Your Majesty, this location was chosen with great care," Daiki replied respectfully. "Considering the surrounding environment, this is the best possible spot. Not only is it well-hidden, but it also lies directly behind our military base. Anyone attempting to access it would have to pass through the entire base first."
From a security perspective, this location is ideal."
"What do you think, Abona?" Anos turned to Abona, who stood nearby holding Dawn, his weapon.
"Your Majesty, I don't know much about this," Abona admitted, "but based on Captain Daiki's explanation, this does seem like a solid choice."
Satisfied with their input, Anos looked ahead and thought for a moment before responding, "If both of you agree, then this is where we'll set it up."
Anos didn't dwell on these logistical details, but he understood the critical importance of the space portal.
Once the decision was made, he surveyed the terrain. His body began to glow faintly blue, and his eyes turned a striking shade of sky blue as he prepared to activate his Devil Fruit powers.
The surrounding trees and plants bent as if caught in a powerful gust of wind, bowing outward in all directions.
Observing the phenomenon, both Abona and Daiki instinctively stepped back, wary of what might happen next.
Anos fixed his gaze on the designated location, crossing his palms as two streams of radiant blue energy shot out.
The beams converged about fifty meters in front of him, rapidly spinning to form a vortex. Within a minute, the swirling mass had grown into a massive portal.
The vortex resembled the spatial distortions Anos often used for long-distance travel, with its dark centre and glowing blue edges.
However, this portal was far larger and radiated an even stronger, more ominous presence.
As the vortex stabilized, nearby plants and trees were uprooted and drawn into its swirling depths, vanishing completely.
Abona and Daiki stood frozen, watching the extraordinary scene in awe.
Though Skypiea sat 10,000 meters above sea level, dark clouds gathered overhead, lightning and thunder converging toward the vortex.
Even the residents of Angel Island could see the unnatural storm forming over Upper Yard, though they had no idea what was happening.
The vortex's power began to wane at its edges, suggesting it would soon collapse unless reinforced.
Anos acted quickly, maintaining the portal's stability with his left hand while raising his right hand skyward.
A black crack appeared 100 meters above, from which a massive black object descended.
The ground shook violently as the colossal structure landed above the vortex.
It was a massive door, 50 meters tall, jet-black, and inscribed with glowing runes.
At its top floated a large, mysterious sphere, its material unknown but radiating an eerie calm.
As the door settled, the dissipating spatial energy from the vortex began to condense, connecting seamlessly with the structure.
The portal stabilized completely, its swirling energies now bound to the massive doorway.
This remarkable object was something Anos had acquired through his system space at a staggering cost of over 20 billion Beris.
However, for a king as wealthy as Anos, this expense was hardly significant.
When the process concluded, all vegetation within a 50-meter radius had been obliterated, leaving only barren soil.
Abona and Daiki stared in stunned silence, the spectacle having shattered their expectations of what was possible.
Though they had long known their king's Devil Fruit granted him spatial powers, witnessing the creation of a space portal was a completely different experience.
This half-hour display of raw power and precision had given them a new appreciation for the wonders their king could achieve.
