Above the cloud-sea, dawn scattered like golden powder; the "Orange Mothership" hovered at seven thousand metres, a flying orange island.
Leon stood atop the command tower, the counter on his right hand ticking: 116:00:00 (frozen).[System Alert:Next node·Cloud-Core locked]Nami unfolded an aerial weather chart, finger landing on a lightning-outlined route: "Target: Skypiea. The cloud-core sits in the 'Shrine of God' altar—backup port 06."Leon generated "Cloud-Flow Stabilisers"—purple glowing wing-plates that produce buoyancy synchronized with Skypiea's cloud flow, allowing the mothership to hover at seven km without being swallowed by the sea of clouds.They landed on Angel Beach on glider blocks; white clouds collapsed like cotton beneath their feet, leaving glowing footprints.
Far off, angel-island residents stared in alarm—they had never seen a "flying orange island".A blond angel boy flew over, small cloud-wings on his back, voice clear: "Outsiders, why carry Sea-Prism stone scent?"Leon showed the pseudo Sea-Prism badge: "We are 'pixel envoys' here to purify the cloud-core—please guide us."The boy hesitated, but a golden lightning bolt cracked—God Enel arrived on the "Thundercloud Ark", body wrapped in current, voice like thunder: "Mortals, dare trespass in my domain!"Enel raised his hand; "Raigou" fell from the sky—a hundred-metre lightning sphere straight at the mothership.
Leon instantly spawned a "bedrock dome" to shield the ship; the sphere struck the dome, erupting kilometre-long arcs yet failed to penetrate.Enel's pupils shrank: "Blocked Raigou? Interesting!"
He turned and flew toward the "Shrine of God" altar, voice echoing: "Come to the altar, defeat me, the cloud-core is yours; fail, and stay forever as thunder-cloud fuel!"Leon and Nami glanced at each other, nodded together: "Exactly what we want."The Shrine of God altar, suspended in the centre of the cloud-sea, built of pure white cloudstone, hovered a twenty-metre "Cloud-Core Heart"—surface covered with golden cloud-dust and black code, each beat releasing a ring of lightning pulses.The system popped:[Backup Port 06:Cloud-Core Thunder Heart]
[Purification condition:defeat guardian BOSS·God Enel]The altar floor cracked; Enel's body current skyrocketed, transforming into a hundred-metre thunder dragon, mouth emitting synthetic sound: "Refuse purification—execute thunder formatting!"Battle erupted.
Enel's tail swept the altar into a smooth plane; Leon kept spawning "bedrock platforms" and "redstone lightning rods" for aerial guerrilla strikes.Nami drove "Clima-Tact·Thunder Dragon", summoning a hundred-metre lightning whip, intertwining with Enel's thunder dragon, forcibly contesting charge control of the cloud layer.Final strike—
Leon raised the "Uranus Core" high; the core released a black absorption pulse, forcibly sucking Enel's "thunder-cloud energy" into the core, the lightning extinguished instantly.Enel let out a final electronic screech, body disintegrating into a skyful of golden electric sparks, like a reversed firework.
The cloud-core heart stopped beating and transformed into the sixth "Uranus fragment".System prompts refreshed:[Backup Port 06 purification complete]

[Next node:Water 7·Water-Core]The blond angel boy witnessed everything, eyes complex: "You... defeated God?"
Leon smiled: "No, we only defeated 'fear'."He turned away, his back reflected in the lightning like moving code.
Nami caught up and whispered: "You just said 'fear'—what do you mean?"Leon gazed at the cloud-sea reddened by sunset: "It means this world will no longer be controlled by 'gods', but by 'people'."Count-down 116 hours—continues.
