Chapter 184

"Mm."

Mao Li responded happily.

"Although the boundary is still very vague, after obtaining Ren Amamiya's power, I have indeed learned where the maximum position is."

"This should count as the greatest achievement."

Ren Amamiya also felt a bit more at ease.

He wasn't worried about Mao Li growing too much, but rather that she would get blood on her hands before she was ready.

After all, there are truly many rotten people in this world; if she ran into a few with foul mouths, she might not be able to control herself and just knock them down with one punch.

"Next is the situation with Sigong and Hayasaka..."

"Crack, crack, crack, crack!"

Suddenly, a sound of shattering came from the distance.

Ren Amamiya's inspiration alarm blared loudly.

"!?"

He hurriedly held Mao Li, who hadn't reacted yet, and went through several fire jumps.

"BOOM!!!!"

A huge roar shook Ren Amamiya, who had just moved away, causing him to stumble to the ground.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"

That huge buzzing sound caused Ren Amamiya to temporarily lose his hearing.

If he was like this, Mao Li, whom he was holding, was even more so, especially since her five senses were even more sensitive; this situation happening to her was a super-doubled effect.

After a while, once the buzzing in his ears passed, Ren Amamiya was able to focus his mind on what was in front of him.

An entire iceberg appeared before his eyes, shining brightly.

It was as if an iceberg had been smashed down hard onto the island.

"It seems that the different dimension created by the Door-Door Fruit also has a so-called limit."

Using the ability of a Soul Soother, he helped Mao Li break free from her chaotic state.

Mao Li, having broken free from the chaos, also saw the spectacular scene before her.

"This is... did something happen on Sigong's side?"

Ren Amamiya placed Mao Li on the ground.

"It's not that something happened on Sigong's side, but that something happened on Hayasaka's side."

"The ability of the Door-Door Fruit indeed still has certain limitations."

"As it looks now, they were tossing and turning quite violently in the different dimension."

"Mm?"

Mao Li, standing firm, gently nudged Ren Amamiya.

"Could it be that Sigong is jealous again?"

"..."

Ren Amamiya looked at Mao Li at this very moment.

Although the extraordinary ability she obtained mainly strengthened her own body, even though it had been strengthened almost to the limit, Mao Li was a plump young girl with a curvy figure at this moment, and her physique was even more top-tier than Chika Fujiwara's.

If Sigong saw this scene, it seemed understandable that she would be jealous.

"That shouldn't be it..."

Mao Li's mouth held a smile, and her eyes were full of teasing.

"After all, Sigong seems to like being jealous very much; it's really hard to say."

Even Ren Amamiya couldn't guarantee it this time.

"Mao Li, I'm going to check the situation over there; can you be alone?"

"I'm fine. Wait, are we going to continue later?"

"I'll go check the situation over there first."

"Pfft, pfft, pfft!"

Saki Aizawa, having broken free from the snow, spat out the dust that had drifted into her mouth.

"What's the situation?"

Looking up, the entire island was covered with a layer of iceberg.

"My god... an iceberg fell down?"

Saki Aizawa's face was full of dullness.

This iceberg had smashed the entire island as if it had caved in; if it weren't for the smoke still rising from the volcano in the distance, it felt like even the volcano had suffered.

Her chaotic brain eased slightly, and Saki Aizawa, looking at the scene before her, already understood the situation in her heart.

"Something happened on Sigong's side again."

"No, it shouldn't be that something went wrong on Sigong's side; it's that something went wrong with her maid."

Sonoko Suzuki, also crawling up from the snow, shook her head slightly.

"Chika, Sigong, and her maid all went into the different dimension."

"This situation of an iceberg falling down can only mean that something went wrong in the different dimension. I guess her maid couldn't handle her outburst in the different dimension."

Saki Aizawa nodded in understanding.

"The possibility is quite high."

"Space ability is quite convenient, but there is indeed an upper limit to what it can withstand."

The ability of the Door-Door Fruit is very special, but who knows if there is an upper limit to this specialty?

At least now they knew that this upper limit was real.

"Being able to test it out is a good thing; at least we won't step into a pit on this issue in the future."

"..."

Looking at the iceberg covering the whole island before her, Saki Aizawa always felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly, she reacted.

"Nagi and Maria are still on the island!?"

She widened her eyes; she had just been thinking about those things and had forgotten about Nagi and Maria.

"And Mao Li and Ren Amamiya!"

Isumi Saginomiya, who had been silent, was not anxious at all.

"Don't worry."

Isumi Saginomiya's voice remained as gentle as usual, making people calm down involuntarily.

"Lord Amamiya will not leave it alone when facing this situation."

"Besides, Miss Maria's shield can handle this situation; Nagi will definitely be fine."

"We just need to wait outside."

Isumi Saginomiya's gentle and calm voice influenced Saki Aizawa and Sonoko Suzuki, who were still looking anxious, prompting them to have a little less anxiety on their faces.

Indeed, the situation before them was quite urgent.

But how could the people they knew be the type to sit and wait for death?

They must have already made certain preparations to face the crisis.

At most, it would just be some trouble.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

In a dark area under the iceberg, Maria was struggling to construct a space that could resist the heavy pressure using rock elements.

"Hoo... hoo..."

Constantly squeezing out the remaining elemental power every moment, Maria was already drenched in sweat.

But all she could do at this moment was to hold on for a little longer.

She knew that Mr. Amamiya would definitely come to find them.

"Maria..."
