Chapter 256: The Gap Between Mystery and Reality

Saka Ai swallowed all the fruit with great effort, and a sudden, inexplicable inspiration made her instinctively activate the power that had just appeared within her body.

A round door in the void was pushed open by a hand.

"Eh?"

Saka Ai, using this power for the first time, was a little stunned by the scene before her eyes.

Oh~ so it's the Door-Door Fruit.

Seeing this door opened in the void, Ren Amamiya immediately knew which Devil Fruit this was.

After all, the Door-Door Fruit's ability is still very rare.

It can perform spatial movement, and also possesses spatial teleportation ability.

Spatial abilities can absolutely be considered the top-tier abilities.

Even though the Door-Door Fruit's offensive capability is lacking, its movement ability is the most terrifying.

Especially since this ability can almost never be found, unless the ability user opens a door themselves and exposes themselves.

Otherwise, in the parallel world created by the Door-Door Fruit, there is almost no possibility of being found.

As for whether the Door-Door Fruit possesses direct combat capability, perhaps that can only be determined once the fruit awakens.

"Saka-san, that is the ability of the Door-Door Fruit."

"Using the fruit's ability to open a door to another dimension that is completely identical to reality, you can go in and take a look."

Saka Ai hesitated slightly, then nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll go over and take a look."

She stepped through the round door.

As she entered the other dimension, Saka Ai discovered that the door had already closed.

She looked back.

"Young Lady Kaguya... can you not hear me?"

She tried calling out to Young Lady Kaguya, but Saka Ai discovered that Young Lady Kaguya, who was sitting over there, showed no reaction at all.

This must mean she didn't hear.

Driven by some inexplicable impulse, Saka Ai instinctively glanced in Ren-senpai's direction.

But just that one glance startled her.

Because she clearly felt her gaze meet Ren-senpai's gaze.

Was it an accident?

Saka Ai shifted her position slightly, but she astonishingly discovered that Ren Amamiya's gaze had been locked onto her the entire time.

It wasn't an accident; Ren-senpai really could see her.

Although she didn't know the reason, Saka Ai had already confirmed this point.

However, considering Ren-senpai's own unusual nature, it was understandable that such a situation would occur.

Setting aside Ren-senpai's abnormality, Saka Ai began to observe this world.

It was almost exactly the same as the real world.

However, the colors felt completely different, leaning toward lighter shades—was it different so that she could distinguish between the real world and the other dimension?

That was a good thing.

If the other dimension were completely identical to the real world, it would make it impossible to tell the difference.

With such an obvious difference, Saka Ai was certain she wouldn't encounter such a situation.

This really fits the ability of my past identity as a traitor.

If I had possessed this ability before, I should have been able to completely dig out all of Kaguya Sigong's secrets.

It came a little late, what a pity.

"Saka-san, you can try to think about the situation of your own room, and then open the door."

"The Door-Door Fruit also has the ability to traverse space; you can go try it out."

Just as Saka Ai was feeling regret, she suddenly heard Ren-senpai's voice.

She instinctively glanced over.

Discovering that Ren-senpai was looking at her, Saka Ai felt slightly uncomfortable, but still nodded slightly.

My room... my room...

While thinking about her room in her mind, Saka Ai used the power she had just obtained to create a round door in the air.

She reached out and gently pushed it open, and the scene behind the door came into her view.

"It really works?"

Saka Ai's eyes widened.

This was her first time using that extraordinary power.

At the moment she opened the door, she didn't immediately step inside, but continued to observe her surroundings.

Then she noticed that with the door she had just created as the boundary, what she saw was no longer the hot spring inn from before, but her room.

It seemed to be a change that appeared so that she could confirm the situation in her room before opening the door.

This ability is amazing.

At this moment, Saka Ai finally understood why Young Lady Kaguya would have such thoughts about using power to solve problems after obtaining power.

Who wouldn't have such thoughts upon obtaining this kind of ability?

And she was also very clear that the power she obtained was in no way inferior to Young Lady Kaguya's power.

Perhaps she couldn't instantly freeze a room like Young Lady Kaguya could.

But she could use her power to instantly return to her room from Tsukikage Island.

This kind of spatial leap even surpasses ordinary destructive power.

Moreover, upon entering the other dimension, she could still hear the sounds of the real world and see the people of the real world.

This additional ability is also incredibly strong.

As long as she does not open the door to return to the real world, except for Amamiya-kun, almost no one would be able to see her.

This ability also defies the Great Dao.

Given her current state, she could very easily steal any intelligence without being discovered.

This is the power of the Secret World.

Hayasaka Ai couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Only by obtaining that mysterious power can one understand just how vast the gap between the mysterious and the real truly is.

She is merely a fledgling who has just received power, yet this power has already brought her such a tremendous change.

No wonder everyone yearns for the mysterious.

Once possessing mysterious power, just as Amamiya-kun said, it becomes even easier to break the bottom line of human nature.

After sighing, Hayasaka Ai closed the Jiandeda Sect leading to her own room, but the altered view with the gate as the boundary was not erased.

She walked quickly, gently pushed open the door to her own room, and hurried toward the Young Lady Kaguya's room.

Along the way, she could see maids cleaning, just as usual.

Those maids and she existed in completely different dimensions; those maids did not possess Amamiya-kun's ability to observe her in the other world.

This allowed Hayasaka Ai to enter the Young Lady Kaguya's room smoothly without anyone knowing.

She opened the door again to return to the real world halfway.

"He really did come back."

After walking around inside the Young Lady Kaguya's room, Hayasaka Ai went straight to open the wardrobe and took out a piece of the Young Lady Kaguya's undergarments.

This is the evidence of her using her ability to travel through space.
