With his arms extended forward, Kai felt the flow of energy within him, and before he knew it, a massive fog began to form before him, creating a dense cloud that enveloped the area around him. The dark clouds seemed to emerge from his hands as if drawing something from the depths of his soul. But this was no ordinary fog; it carried with it the mysterious power of the system, a force that was now controlling his destiny and guiding him toward his goal.
Images began to form in Kai's mind; he could see the old art store he had built in Loguetown in all its details—the precise corners, the drawings on the walls, even the colors used for the paint. Everything was etched in his memory. He closed his eyes and visualized the entire store, summoning a clear image of it as it was, then instructed the system to replicate and implement it here, on Ohara Island.
The fog responded quickly, as if it understood exactly what Kai wanted. It transformed into solid shapes, and the ground beneath his feet began to tremble lightly. Floors, ceilings, and walls emerged from nowhere, as if the store was being carved from the air itself. Every corner, every detail was recreated with meticulous precision, as if the system was following Kai's commands to the letter without error.
As the building took shape, this extraordinary phenomenon drew the attention of the inhabitants of Ohara Island. People began to gather from all corners of the island, filled with amazement and suspicion. Their faces reflected a mix of fear and curiosity. To them, Kai seemed like a mysterious sorcerer conjuring a building from nothing. They had never seen anything like this; the scene looked as if it were taken from ancient myths.
Kai stepped away from everyone, focusing on his task, ignoring their stares and increasing questions. He knew they would have to get used to seeing him this way, as he was now adopting Arkan's philosophy of appearing and not hiding. Still, Kai felt no comfort; he knew that what he was doing might attract more unwanted attention.
Professor Clover emerged from the Library of Knowledge with a team of scholars, trying to comprehend what was happening. They observed the massive structure rising before their eyes—walls forming rapidly, windows appearing from nowhere, and colors being added to the walls as if poured from an invisible source. This technique was something beyond their scientific understanding, something that could not be explained by the knowledge they possessed.
Professor Clover watched silently, his eyes widening with each passing moment. As each part of the building was completed, his confusion and amazement grew. He knew Kai was not an ordinary young man, but this… was something entirely different. When the construction was finally complete, it appeared to be an exact replica of the store Kai had built in Loguetown, with all the fine details, even the trees and plants around it were in their precise locations.
Kai felt a sense of relief as he looked at the completed store before him. This was the store he had envisioned, now standing proudly on Ohara's land, ready to welcome its new visitors. With every breath he took, he felt that part of the burden he carried had been lifted, but he also knew this was not the end but a new beginning for another adventure.
Whispers grew among the crowd gathered around the store. They wondered about the purpose of this construction. "What is this place?" "Why is this young man building something like this here?" "Is it related to the Tree of Knowledge?" The questions were endless, but no one had the answers.
Kai remained silent, watching from a distance the reactions appearing on people's faces. They were struggling to understand what was happening, and they were about to discover that sometimes it is better to remain ignorant. This store was not just an ordinary building; it was a gateway to something far greater than they imagined, something that would change their lives forever, and perhaps the fate of this peaceful island.
As the store stood proudly amidst the increasing crowd, Kai moved toward the center of the gathering. Everyone stared at him with deep curiosity, waiting for him to provide answers about this strange and mysterious building that had sprung up from nothing.
Kai raised his voice to address the crowd, saying, "My friends, I want to explain to you why I built this store. This place is not just an ordinary building; it is meant to showcase something called 'manga,' which is a type of illustrated story. It may seem strange to you, but these stories are not what you might expect. They contain adventures and tales that will open new worlds to you that you have never seen before."
A moment of silence fell over the crowd, then whispers started to spread again. "What is manga?" "Illustrated stories? Are they meant for children?" Questions multiplied, and curiosity flowed into their minds. Not everyone was familiar with the concept of manga, and when some heard that these stories might be for children, they began to withdraw gradually, believing it would not be interesting.
But Kai was not about to give up. He raised his voice again, adding, "I understand that you might think illustrated stories are just for children, but this is not the usual case. These stories will amaze you with their depth and complexity, and you will find adventures and events you never imagined possible. This place is designed to be more than just a place to display stories; it is a gateway to new worlds, and I believe you will understand this when you see it for yourselves."
Curiosity began to increase among the crowd. They could not ignore the mysterious sensation accompanying this building. How could illustrated stories, even if meant for children, be related to such a remarkable building? Movement returned to the place, and people began to approach the store's entrance again.
People entered the store one by one, and with each new entrant, the excitement in the place grew. That moment was the beginning of discovering a new world. Every step they took into the store revealed more intriguing and exciting details. Once inside, they were amazed by the spectacular scene before them. The vivid illustrations, the engaging stories, and the bright colors filling the place made the store an unforgettable location.
Eyes sparkled with excitement, and everyone began asking about the upcoming chapters, inquiring about more adventures and events to come. Kai, with a satisfied smile, told them that the next chapters would be released soon, and they just needed to wait. He wished them a pleasant time in this new world and left them to enjoy the sights and stories surrounding them.
As the excitement filled the store, there was someone among the crowd who was not as impressed by the level of wonder. It was a Marine spy who had come to the island secretly. He watched everything with great concern, and the image of Kai and the specifics of the store began to unfold before his eyes. The spy realized that this event was bigger than he had thought and that it could have far-reaching implications.
Quickly, the spy took advantage of the commotion to leave the island unnoticed, heading toward the nearest Marine base. He carried detailed reports of everything he had seen to present to his superiors. He knew that this report could have a significant impact on the current situation at sea, and the information he gathered would be useful in the future.
As the spy left, people continued to enjoy their new adventures inside the store, and Kai watched them closely, reassured that what he had created had gained their approval. But deep down, he knew that the future would be filled with challenges and that he needed to be prepared for whatever might come.
