Dark clouds loomed overhead, accompanied by lightning and thunder!

Looking up, the entire sky was filled with enchanting electric snakes darting through the clouds, converging from small to large before suddenly gathering together to form a waterfall of bright, dazzling Lightning Flash that crashed down.

And this wasn't just one or two bolts of Lightning Flash, but rather—

Densely packed!

"Mamaragan!"

Enel, standing atop the Ark 'Maxim', spread his arms wide, looking utterly captivated.

"See? This is my true power."

"Prostrate yourselves before my omnipotent power, mortals—and then be mercilessly destroyed by me! Hahahaha~~~"

"Run!"

"Everyone, run! This country is about to be destroyed!"

On Angel Island, everyone rushed towards the port. If they had been skeptical of Conis's words before, the indiscriminate lightning striking from the sky now served as the best wake-up call.

If you don't want to die, run!

"Quickly, let's go to 'the End of the Clouds'..."

Forget about supplies, human lives are the most important thing—

"Set sail! Set sail!"

"The White Berets people are still in the city..."

On the other side of the Sanctuary, in a place that forms a triangle with Angel Island.

In the Hidden Cloud Village, nestled among the clouds, a little girl named Aisha is loudly urging everyone to change their minds.

"Everyone, get out of the village quickly!"

"Angel Island is on the verge of collapse~~"

"That big bad guy Enel is going to wipe us out too!"

"He even planned to destroy the Holy Land, then leave alone in a spaceship..."

"But, Aisha."

Compared to the oppressed Angel Island, the simple and honest Cloud Village immediately believed the little girl's words. Firstly, the girl herself was not a liar; secondly, it was common knowledge that she possessed a vast "Mantra" ability. However,

"The soldiers who went to war haven't returned yet,"

"Yeah, Wipper, Mantis, Brahm, Laki..."

"They... they..."

Aisha, biting her lip tightly, lowered her head, letting large tears fall onto the clouds. Was she supposed to tell everyone that the soldiers' 'voices' had vanished from her Mantra?

"Everyone, get on the boat and leave the village immediately."

At the crucial moment, the village chief stepped forward. —With his command, everyone, whether they understood or were confused, sprang into action, their efficiency far surpassing that of neighboring Angel Island!

Boom!

Crackling sound—

A bolt of Lightning Flash as thick as a bucket crashed down, as if confirming Aisha's words. Seeing Enel's signature ability land in the village, the Shandia people of Kumogakure didn't hesitate any longer! Technological regression also has its advantages, namely:

"Walk!"

"Sail out here—"

"Everyone, get on the ship!"

Well, due to the lack of supplies, Shandia didn't have much luggage to prepare; they just rolled up their sleeves and ran towards the 'sea of clouds' outside.

"Chief, you should get on the ship quickly too!"

As more and more thunderbolts fell, the old chieftain, draped in a wolf's skin, Guotou to look at the warrior statue in the center of the village.

That was Calgara, the great warrior who made a promise to Noland, the adventurer from the Blue Sea, four hundred years ago. He vowed to forever keep the Shandora's Light lit by Noland, the expedition admiral and botanist who saved all of Shandia from the 'Ash Fever,' guiding his friend's way home. But:

As Shandora was propelled ten thousand meters into the air by the giant Sky-Piercing Current, she faced the surging warriors of Angel Island. Already severely wounded in the Sky-Piercing Current, the great warrior fought to the death, ultimately falling to the enemy's blades and spears...

From then on, the Shandora's Light was extinguished for 400 years!

"How ironic,"

The old chieftain looked at the thunderclouds filling the sky above. The place where the most Lightning Flash struck was not their Hidden Cloud Village, but rather the Angel Island side that served the 'god'.

"Two races that fought for four hundred years were ultimately wiped out by a willful individual."

However, faced with the ever-twisting and accumulating lightning in the sky, and the thunderbolts crashing down, both Angel Island and Cloud Village had no choice but to flee in terror.

"Please bless us, Great Calgara..."

"Yay! Hahahaha~~~"

The wild laughter echoed in the sky, and the Lightning Flash falling all around made the person laughing seem like a god or a demon!

"That's it, that's right—"

Enel looked down, and although the ground was as small as an anthill filled with hot water, in his Mantra, there were clear cries, wails, pleas, and despair... the sounds were like this:

"Pleasant to the ear".

"God is the embodiment of terror," Enel, opening his arms wide and closing his eyes in ecstasy, listening contentedly to the voice of the weak. "Fear me, serve me, please me, and then, when I no longer need you, give me a grand 'celebration'."

"God comes, not to bring peace to the world. God comes, to bring war to the world. Hahaha~~ I really like this sentence from Lan Hai's book~~~"

Let this lightning before me reaffirm my invincible power!

Hiss,

The stinging pain from his injuries snapped Enel out of his reverie, causing him to frown in annoyance.

"And those monkeys from the blue ocean..."

A group of blasphemous fools, even after being blasted away by his lightning, showed not the slightest fear. Even the one who had previously been the loudest and most fearful 'voice' now dared to brandish his weapon at him...

"Then, let me show you what true 'despair' really is!"

"Hey, am I seeing things?"

Usopp rubbed his eyes hard, pointing at the sky in disbelief. "What the hell is that?"

"Yes, you're not seeing things."

Roman nodded. "Anyone who isn't blind can see it."

Above Angel Island, amidst the pitch-black thunderclouds that filled the entire sky, an enormous, jet-black ball of lightning slowly condensed and detached from the clouds!

The lightning sphere, hundreds of meters in diameter, was enormous! Its mere appearance immediately drew the attention of everyone and everything! Destruction, death, and utter inevitability... these were the only thoughts on everyone's mind upon seeing this black lightning sphere.

Within that giant ball of lightning, countless bolts of Inazuma could be faintly seen dancing and flashing, as if it contained all the lightning of the entire world! At the same time, Roman and the others, far away in the Holy Domain, heard a series of 'sizzling' sounds on their skin, as if... no, as if countless invisible bolts of lightning were dancing on their bodies!

"Hey, hey, hey, no way."

Sanji didn't even notice when the cigarette he was holding fell to the ground.

Are all the monsters on the Grand Line like this?

Having only been on the Grand Line for a month, Crocodile, who controls sandstorms that sweep across thousands of miles, Enel, who wields the power to destroy the world with lightning... all sorts of monsters have taken turns appearing, almost straining the Straw Hat crew's nerves to the point of being like steel cables.

No, I must become stronger!

Zoro gripped his sword hilt, gritting his teeth. He'd barely managed to cut through 'sandstorm,' but the natural disaster before him was blatantly telling him: Can your sword cut through 'lightning'?

"Don't panic, it's not a big problem."

All around, Lightning Flash as thick as buckets rained down, and a gigantic, pitch-black ball of lightning slowly descended in the distance. At this point, Roman was actually the most relaxed one. Anyway:

"Just watch our captain's performance."

"Hahaha, the sky belongs to me!"

"Monkeys of the Blue Ocean, open your eyes wide and see clearly! — With my abilities combined with the Ark 'Maxim', I can achieve such a 'divine skill'!"

As Enel swung his arm downwards, the pitch-black lightning ball in the sky suddenly fell.

"El Thor!!"

A blinding light pierced through everything! A heatwave melted everything! A shockwave that tore everything apart completely engulfed and swallowed the entire Angel Island. All buildings collapsed instantly, ships turned into floating duckweed, flew through the air, burned and evaporated, the atmosphere wailed, and the clouds trembled! The entire Thick Clouds was enduring the agony of destruction.

White filled the entire field of vision, silence filled the ears, and trembling permeated everything!

A few seconds... maybe ten seconds... or even several tens of seconds later, everyone finally regained their five senses. However, before them:

Empty, there's nothing left!

The entire Angel Island vanished without a trace in the Lightning Flash, and a massive shockwave pierced through the clouds, proclaiming to everything what ultimate destruction truly meant!

Good heavens...

Even low-yield tactical nuclear weapons are nothing special.

Roman turned to look at the Straw Hat crew standing under the giant vines beside him. "So, everyone, do you still have any doubts about the powerful figures I mentioned on the Grand Line?"

Shaking his head wildly! X6

Even the elegant and beautiful Robin almost flicked her head so hard it left afterimages.

"Hehehe, I'll go then!"

Only Luffy, dragging a giant golden ball, looked fearlessly at the Ark Maxim in the sky—there was still a guy on it who owed him an unfinished duel.

"Go!" X7

P. S.: Ahem, because I had a launch message, I accidentally typed 200 after seeing the first 119 chapters... Chapter titles can't be changed after launch, so... I'll go find the editor now.
