Chapter 129 - Chapter 131

On Roku's island, Portgas D. Amell stood with closed eyes. He was about to use spirit bending, the manipulation of the cosmic energy to try and connect with the universal stream, the bridge between every world and dimension in existence. So he slowly raised his hand up high and gathered energy around his it. By just the sheer amount of energy around his hand, it started to disrupt space around him, small cracks in the air appeared for just a millisecond. The elements were going crazy around him. After a few minutes of standing still like this and gathering energy, he did a lightning-fast chop and split space in front of him into two halves.

As the space gate opened for him to walk into, the ocean also divided into two behind it. The air current around the island stopped for a second and the island started to break apart. "Whoops, I need to get better at this." Amell snapped his fingers and the gate expanded and became massive. And this sent out a concentrated outburst of energy that split the island in two.

"Orlando, Gold, go through now, I'll see you on the other side," Amell said to the two eagles standing behind him. They showed no fear because Orlando trusted Amell, and Gold would now follow Orlando anywhere. They flapped their wings and flew through the gate.

"Goodbye, Toph, Aang," Amell said and walked through the gate as well. And when he disappeared beyond the gate, it closed and the world returned to its calm and peacefulness. Though Roku's island wasn't much of an island anymore.

Amell was sucked out of the portal and found himself inside the universal stream. As usual, it was incredibly beautiful and colourful. Made up of a multitude of colours it was only now that he realized that the whole stream was made up of cosmic energy, and now that he could control it he finally realized just how powerful he had become. If he truly mastered this then he would most likely be able to completely change any aspect of reality at will. Did someone die? Not anymore, the thought of being in possession of this amount of power both scared and excited him.

Amell spotted Orlando and Gold, and they also noticed him, "Come over here and stay close to me or you might end up in a world where a house cat can kill you." Amell said in amusement to his eagles. Orlando didn't like being compared to a house cat so he tried to send an air blast towards Amell, but nothing came of it, his bending didn't work in this stream.

"Too bad, you overgrown baby!" Amell had some time ago located Orlando's sour spot. And that was his age and maturity level, strange thing for an eagle to care about, but most people that knew Orlando often forgets that he is as intelligent as a human in many ways. He perfectly understands multiple languages, and he understands the concepts of emotion, and age and many other things thought exclusive to humans only. And Orlando's absolute sore spot was when you called him anything other than mature. Age represents authority among his species so he despised when someone undermined him by getting his age wrong.

"Rest for now, it's gonna be about an hour before we arrive at our location." Amell laid down and an incredibly relaxing and tranquil feeling came over him and he started to space out. He felt it had been years since he got any form of rest. He had basically trained for about a hundred years straight.

And after exactly one hour and twenty minutes, they could finally see a tiny little blinking star. This tiny little blinking star looked small, but it was only because of the insane distance still between it and the stream. This star was a whole world. A world inhabited by many planets and many different races. And one of these planets was the elemental nations.

Amell smiled as he could from even this distance recognize the energy signature of that world. "You two, stop your cuddling and get ready now." Amell turned his gaze to Orlando and Gold that was having the time of their lives.

Amell sighed and shook his head when he noticed that he was being ignored by both of them. They clearly prioritised snuggling above world travel safety 101. So Amell let them be and he sent them all towards that tiny shining little star using the stream.

A few km outside the immediate border of the village hidden in the sand, a bright multi-coloured beam appeared and struck the ground. A few meters around the place where it struck was now completely destroyed. This was caused by Amell's lack of control of that multi-coloured beam. This beam could in face obliterate a tailed beast in seconds.

Only Amell and people with his blood running through them could control the universal stream to this degree. And Amell had still not mastered his control of cosmic energy, which this beam was entirely made up of. So his lack of control caused this whole area to look like a comet had hit.

Amell, Orlando and Gold were revealed as the beam faded away, "Well, this is slightly off from my original target." He looked around at all the sand around him. In the distance, even though the sand storms were raging he could see the walls to the sand village.

"We have just a short distance to cover, let's go!" Amell said and jumped up on Orlando's back with a bright smile. He was finally back, and since the world wasn't destroyed yet with Alucard lose in it, much time couldn't have passed. Orlando gave a quick nod towards Gold and they both started flapping their wings with ever-increasing ferocity.

They took flight towards the hidden leaf village, where Amell's family was located. A place where he had wanted to return to but had not been able to for very long. The place where his final journey will begin. And the place where he raised his kids, and the place where the love of his life was hopefully still waiting for him.
