You Will Understand

"I'm back."

After waiting a while, Dom and the others sensed the captain's presence approaching.

It appears that two other people returned with them.

However, what they encountered first was not Oboro.

Instead, it was a wisp of blue light that suddenly appeared in the air... In a flash, a man sitting cross-legged on a floating Golden Staff appeared above them, his appearance covered in wounds, but his arrogant and cold eyes were still looking down at them.

God of the Skypiea!

Upon seeing Enel, Dom and the others instantly understood.

This person... is the captain's target for this trip.

If we're talking purely about speed, ignoring reaction time in combat, Enel is undoubtedly the fastest member of the Hell Pirates right now, thanks to the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's abilities; even Oboro can't match him.

What struck Rob Lucci and his companions was that, although they had only observed the battle that had just taken place on God's Island from a considerable distance and hadn't truly felt what the "eye of the storm" of the two combatants was like, the white-turbaned man, who appeared to have been severely injured by the God Slayer, still exuded immense pressure despite his Exhaust state, with his faint yet indifferent gaze.

"Kneel down."

Enel looked at the One Piece who were staring at him and suddenly spoke.

His acknowledgment of Oboro does not mean he acknowledges anyone else.

In his eyes, these One Piece were still trash, lowly mortals.

Boom! As soon as he finished speaking, without any further expression, just like when he severely injured Ganful before, Yurivich grinned with excitement, his eyes gleaming with bloodlust, and instantly leaped from the ground towards Enel in the air, spinning his blade and unleashing an incredibly swift slash.

Enel's eyelids twitched... as if he hadn't expected this big guy to have such abilities.

Because he felt the power of Haki once again...

However, the level of threat emanating from this Haki was vastly different from that of the man in the suit; they were qualitatively different.

"Hehehe..."

Being defeated by Enel was unwilling to admit but had to face... However, given his personality, he still had a burning anger inside, and since he had nowhere to vent it, Yurivich's initiative to deliver himself to him was exactly what he wanted.

The slash created a sharp curtain of wind in the air.

However, the target was not hit.

Almost at the same moment the slash erupted, Enel had already leaped onto Yurivich's head, one foot planted on Yuri's head, twirling the Golden Staff in his hand, his expression revealing an arrogant sense of superiority.

"Too slow..."

Enel chuckled and raised his Golden Staff, which was covered in lightning, high in the hand, turning it red and transforming it back into a spear.

Prepare to stab Yuri in the head.

But at the critical moment, a black streak of light leaped in, its incredibly powerful leg sweeping across like a whip.

Enel was forced to transform into his elemental form again and teleport to a height of several meters away.

The person who suddenly made the move was Rob Lucci.

Enel's features were somewhat distorted... Today's experience made him extremely unhappy.

These mortals are actually trying to resist his punishment! "Alright."

Just as Enel was about to unleash his Devil Fruit power, a cold voice reached the ears of everyone present.

Above, Oboro, who was striding through the air, finally arrived late and stopped the farce.

Yurivich landed heavily, shouldered his greatsword, glanced at Enel, and made no further move.

Enel's forehead veins bulged, and the electric light emanating from his palms eventually subsided.

"Your servant?"

Enel looked at Oboro and asked.

Although he knew what One Piece were, he clearly didn't understand One Piece system and culture that well.

In his eyes, since Oboro possessed such power, there was absolutely no need for him to associate with these weaklings.

The reason these One Piece have any value is similar to that of his priests—they are his servants...

"We are partners... we are one."

Long smiled.

"Them?"

Enel's tone couldn't hide his sarcasm.

"From now on, you are one of them... Although they are weaker now, they will grow stronger in the future."

"Oboro said."

At this moment, two other figures that had been following them from a distance also arrived.

It was priests Satori and Gedatsu.

"God cannot associate with mortals..."

Enel said indifferently.

"Since you're on my ship, you have to listen to me... No fighting among members is allowed without my permission. This is an order, and there will be no exceptions." Oboro stared at Enel and said, word by word.

"..."

Enel was silent for a moment, then laughed. "Let's get this straight... I'm not One Piece, I'm still a great god! Of all these people, you're the only one qualified to be my partner, and someone I consider one of my own, so I'll listen to you... but not everything. You have no right to order me around... If the Blue Sea isn't as interesting as you make it out to be, I'll leave at any time."

Upon hearing this, the Hell Pirates all changed color.

This is the first time a 'newcomer' has boarded the ship and dared to make such a statement... and they don't seem to have much respect for the captain.

Hearing the sound, he raised his hand and pressed down on his hat.

Step by step, he walked up to Enel.

"You have the right to choose, and I have mine... You can disobey me, but if you anger me, I'll kill you, is that okay? That's fair..."

"..."

"Also... you don't need to look down on your companions. The new world will soon show you just how 'powerless' you, this god, really are."

Oboro stared intently at Enel, his eyes filled with a sinister light. "Without them... your dream of ruling like you do here on Skypiea is a joke."

"Don't worry, you'll soon realize how important they are."

After saying this, Long patted his shoulder and flew down to the ground.

"Skypiea produces a special type of shellfish with various uses, and we will be able to use this resource in the future," Oboro said to Dom and the others. "Also, let's collect their technology for creating sea clouds."

There are many types of shell weapons in Skypiea, such as functional Wind Dial, Jet Dial, and Flash Dial. However, what Oboro cares more about are Impact Dial and Slash Dial, which can enhance strength. Although these shells have limited effect on improving high-level combat power, they are still a means of arming oneself and can be used to enrich the strength of junior crew members. They will be very effective, especially when used in large fleets.

"I'm leaving it to you... Is everything alright?"

After giving some instructions, Oboro asked Enel a question.

The latter is, after all, a god of Skypiea... and with the help of two native priests, the Hell Pirates can plunder Skypiea's resources the fastest.

"You two go and take care of it."

Enel looked at Satori and Gedatsu.

"Yes."

As a result, the Hell Pirates expanded again, becoming a crew of seven.

As for the priests Satori and Gedatsu, they were not members of the Hell Pirates, but merely Enel's subordinates.

It's somewhat like being an outsider.

"You two come with me."

After giving his instructions, Oboro called to Dom and Yuri, and they flew off in another direction.

Enel, seeing this, followed closely behind.

He guessed where Oboro wanted to go...
