Fallen into the Sea?

"Zoro!" Luffy screamed hysterically, unaware that his voice was cracking.

"Hey, Seaweed Head, weren't you going to become the world's Great Sword Master? How could you fall here!" Sanji, who had just recovered from his dazed state, immediately saw a scene that he couldn't believe.

"Zoro!" Chopper rushed to Zoro's side, bent down, pressed his ear to Zoro's chest to listen, and then squeezed hard on Zoro's heart, shouting at Luffy with tears streaming down his face, "There's still a heartbeat, but it's very weak. If Zoro doesn't get treatment in time, he'll die!"

"He'll die! He'll die! Zoro's going to die!" These words echoed in Luffy's ears like a demonic whisper, causing him to clutch his head in agony and scream, "Why? Why is this happening?!"

"How pathetic. Even now, do you still have the mind to worry about others?" The Fallen Angel's indifferent voice rang in everyone's ears once again.

"It's you, you bastard! Give Zoro back to me!" Luffy seemed to wake from a dream as he looked at the monster floating in mid-air, his eyes wide with fury as he charged towards the figure.

"Why are you so angry? Death is your inescapable fate; I merely accelerated it slightly." A hint of doubt appeared on Lucifer's indifferent face, then he shook his head slightly. "Since you are so reluctant to part with him, let me send you to join him."

"Ah!" As if to vent all the anger in his heart, Luffy roared hoarsely, exceeding his physical limits, and rushed towards the figure that made him feel utterly hopeless at an incredible speed.

However, the difference in their levels cannot be erased by a single roar. What appears Luffy to everyone else is full of flaws to Lucifer.

Lucifer drew a greatsword reeking of filth from the void and calmly struck Luffy, sending him flying into the air. The blood that splattered out was as dazzling as crimson agate.

Lucifer flapped his wings and instantly appeared above Luffy, gripping the Black Greatsword with both hands and indifferently thrusting it downwards.

Sizzle!

The greatsword pierced through his chest, and his weakened body was pinned to the void. Crimson blood slid from the sword tip, hitting the ground with a "plop" sound.

However, for the first time, Lucifer's expression changed slightly, despite his usual calm demeanor.

"Was it worth it?" The one with the greatsword piercing his chest and his limbs hanging limply was Sanji.

"There's no such thing as 'worth it' or 'not worth it,' only 'whether you're willing or not.' Cough cough, Luffy, I'm leaving the rest to you. I'm a little sleepy and want to take a nap first, so don't bother me."

Sanji knew that he was no match for the monster who looked like an angel but was actually a demon. So, he didn't even think about attacking Lucifer. Instead, at the last moment, he used his fastest speed to kick Luffy away from below. Sanji, who didn't have time to change direction, was naturally pierced through by the greatsword.

"Why do you want to defile my sword?" Lucifer flicked his greatsword lightly, and Sanji, who was impaled on the greatsword, was thrown out like trash, crashing heavily against the wall and sliding down, leaving a clearly visible bloodstain.

Enraged, Luffy's eyes streamed with blood and tears. Never before had he felt such fury. His only thought was, "Knock him out of the sky! I must knock him out of the sky and send him crashing into the sea!"

A familiar yet unfamiliar power erupted from Luffy's body, exploding with a deafening roar and sweeping across the surrounding area.

Luffy had stopped thinking and didn't have time to recall what this power was. His legs compressed like springs, and he flew towards Lucifer like a cannonball.

"Is this Conqueror's Haki?" Lucifer seemed to be frozen in place, momentarily lost in thought. When he came to his senses, a pair of iron fists gradually enlarged in his vision, eventually filling his entire field of vision.

Bang!

An unstoppable force exploded and slammed into Lucifer. The terrifying impact sent him flying against the wall in an instant. To everyone's astonishment, the supposedly indestructible God's Temple developed a tiny crack, which then spread like a spider, covering the entire wall.

Boom!

The walls shattered, and the force, undiminished, blasted Lucifer out of the God's Temple, sending him plummeting towards the sea.

"You won?" Nami stared in disbelief at the huge hole in the God's Temple. This was a terrifying creature that only existed in mythology, a top-tier fighter who could bring Zoro and Sanji to the brink of death with a single blow. It was unreal that Luffy had defeated it like this.

"Hahaha, so what if he's a god? He still fell to my hands!" Usopp said smugly, hands on his hips.

In fact, Usopp also had a vague feeling that something was wrong. Luffy was clearly no match for that Fallen Angel before, and was even powerless against him. How could he suddenly unleash such power that he not only defeated the fallen angel, but also punched such a large hole in this Eternal Prison- like God's Temple? This could no longer be explained by a mere burst of power.

After all, there are basic rules to unleashing power. It's normal for you to unleash one or two times your strength, and I can tolerate unleashing ten or twenty times your strength. But this time, you unleashed hundreds or thousands of times your combat power, which is too much. Usopp even felt a little indignant for that Fallen Angel. He clearly had an absolute advantage, but the other party cheated!

However, Usopp wasn't the type to get to the bottom of things. He wouldn't dwell on things he couldn't understand, since it was all in their best interest anyway.

"Usopp, come quickly and help press on Sanji's wound! He's bleeding a lot, and if we don't stop the bleeding soon, he'll run out of blood!" Chopper's tearful voice snapped everyone back to reality.

"How is Zoro?" Usopp asked as he helped bandage Zoro's wounds.

"It's not good. Although his injuries are no longer worsening, the burns cover more than 70% of his body. Whether he can wake up depends on Zoro's own will," Chopper said dejectedly.

"It's okay, you have to trust him. Zoro's will is..." Just as Usopp was comforting him, the ground shook violently. If he hadn't reacted in time, he would have fallen directly onto Sanji's wound. "What's going on? An earthquake? Why would there be an earthquake on Sky Island?"

Looking at the damaged God's Temple, Vivi recalled the scene in the maze earlier, and her expression changed drastically. "Oh no, the God's Temple is a whole. When Luffy knocked that angel away, he also destroyed the overall structure of the God's Temple. It will collapse completely soon."

"Vivi, you must be joking, right? This is 10,000 meters in the air! If you fall, ugh!" Usopp's Adam's apple bobbed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"What? Why is this happening? We put in so much effort!" Nami collapsed to her knees, her eyes unfocused. In such a short time, they simply couldn't escape the God's Temple.

"No! Conis hasn't been rescued yet! How can we do this?" Luffy roared angrily, but before he could finish speaking, the ground rapidly collapsed, the entire God's Temple began to disintegrate, and in an instant, everyone fell helplessly into the sea before they could even react. 11
