So-Called Gods Are Nothing but Apes in Fine Robes!
Enel's "voice" disappeared...
Upon hearing this, Laki's expression changed instantly.
She looked at Aisha carefully for a moment, then turned to look in the direction of the "Skypiea".
Silvery lightning danced wildly in the sky like serpents.
With that blindingly bright lightning, Aisha said Enel's "voice" had disappeared?
Laki took a deep breath, straightened her face, and looked at Aisha.
"Aisha, it seems I've spoiled you too much!"
"We Shandia people may be poor, but we never lie or deceive others—"
"Laki!"
Aisha interrupted Laki, who treated her like a younger sister, with a nervous expression.
"I'm not lying to you! Enel's 'voice' has really completely disappeared! Just now!"
"The thunderous sounds coming from Skypiea now are being emitted by someone else."
"That person... doesn't seem human... no, it seems like there are two people... no, that's not right either..."
By the end, Aisha's expression had become confused.
She possesses an innate talent for Observation Haki, granting her an extremely wide range of perception.
Even in the Hidden Cloud Village, Aisha could clearly sense the situation on the Skypiea.
The residents of Shandia who live in Hidden Cloud Village, especially the members of the Shandia Guerrilla Force, all know about her ability.
However, what happened on Skypiea today left Aisha somewhat puzzled.
For the first time in her life, she seemed unable to sense any "breath"...
That doesn't seem quite right either.
That person, the one currently emitting electricity, is definitely not Enel!
However, according to Aisha's [Observation Haki] perception, that person...
It doesn't even look like a human being!
Aisha's words were unclear.
Even Laki, who knew her very well, couldn't quite understand what the little girl was saying.
"Okay, Aisha."
Laki dropped her serious expression, knelt down beside Aisha, and gently stroked the latter's head.
"I know you care about everyone and want to help them with your abilities."
"But I think you're probably too tired today, you should go and rest..."
"I didn't lie to you, Laki, I really didn't lie to you..."
Even though she was being comforted, Aisha's expression seemed somewhat aggrieved.
"Enel has truly 'disappeared'..."
After saying this, before Laki could say anything more, Aisha took a deep breath and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Enel! You big bad guy--"
"Aisha!"
Laki's expression changed drastically.
Every warrior in Shandia knew the power of God Enel, a power that was unmatched by them, mere mortals.
Even in the White Sea, three thousand meters below the surface, Enel could clearly hear every word spoken by the Sky Island inhabitants.
This is far superior to Aisha's innate Observation Haki!
Skypiea is not far from Hidden Cloud Village.
Laki was certain that Enel could definitely "hear" what was happening Hidden Cloud Village.
But if "God" hears Aisha's disrespectful remarks, only despair awaits Aisha.
A divine retribution!
Laki banished all distracting thoughts, leaped and pounced on Aisha, rolling her around several times in her arms.
She led Aisha as far away as possible from where the two had just been talking.
The next moment.
Laki held Aisha, shielding her with her body, and quietly awaited the "God's Punishment."
A few heart-stopping seconds passed.
Nothing happened.
Still shaken, Laki looked up at the sky, but there was still no sign of lightning.
Enel didn't punish Aisha...
But Aisha's shout had already been heard by the other Shandia guerrillas.
A group of people rushed out of a nearby tent, led by the very same Shandia guerrilla leader Aisha had called out earlier.
Vearth.
"Aisha! And Laki!"
Vearth was a young and fierce man, his left shoulder and left cheek covered with various tattoos.
What are you two doing?
Laki, holding Aisha, climbed up from the Island Cloud and told her everything she knew.
Upon hearing that "Enel's voice has disappeared," the members of the Shandia guerrillas all changed their expressions drastically.
They were all very aware of Aisha's abilities.
The so-called "disappearance of Enel's voice" is actually "Enel is dead!"
Aisha just said...
Laki pointed to the dazzling thunder on the horizon.
"The one unleashing lightning power now is no longer Enel, but another stranger."
The general situation has been grasped.
All eyes were on Vearth.
Vearth was not only the captain of the Shandia guerrillas of this generation.
He is also a descendant of Calgara, the great warrior of Jaya Island, who lived four hundred years ago.
Vearth enjoys extremely high prestige in Hidden Cloud Village and is regarded as the village's leader at a young age.
"Aisha."
Vearth looked at Aisha and asked solemnly.
"Is everything you just said true?"
"Real!"
Aisha broke free from Laki's embrace.
"I swear in the name of my ancestors!"
"Good!"
Vearth took a deep breath, looked up at the Skypiea on the other side, and shouted.
"I absolutely refuse to acknowledge Enel as a god!!"
The words of the Shandia people carried weight and authority.
But there was still no movement from the sky.
God's Punishment has yet to arrive, and it may never come...
Enel is really dead!
Otherwise, he would surely have been punished by the gods for his blasphemous remarks.
Vearth stood still, his fists clenched tightly.
"Guerrilla fighters! Come with me to the Skypiea!"
The Skypiea, also known as the Shandora Ruins Island.
Storm's [Observation Haki] clearly detected the presence of a group of people moving rapidly toward the island's shrine.
"A local aborigine? Or an immigrant from the sea?"
Storm temporarily stopped training. He looked at Whitebeard the Third, and after thinking for a moment, did not put him away.
Suddenly, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, which looked like a sculpture, spread its wings and moved its head to Storm's feet.
Storm and Whitebeard the Third leaped up simultaneously and stood on the head of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon spread its wings and soared away from the temple.
In no time at all.
Storm then rode the Blue-Eyes White Dragon to the group.
I recognized them by their eyes; they're not from Skypieans.
They are "blue ocean immigrants" from Jaya Island.
The arrival of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon immediately attracted the attention of a group of Shandia guerrillas led by Vearth.
Some creatures may appear harmless, but their actual fighting power is frighteningly high.
However, some creatures exude an immense sense of oppression simply by their appearance.
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon is the latter!
'When did such a terrifying creature appear on Skypiea?!'
Vearth gripped the rocket launcher tightly and gestured behind him.
The members of the Shandia guerrillas immediately prepared for battle.
But in this solemn and dignified atmosphere...
The tiny voice was so clear.
"That's him!"
Aisha pointed at the Blue-Eyes White Dragon in the sky and shouted.
"He's the one who defeated Enel!"
A dragon defeated Enel?
An unbelievable thought flashed through the minds of Vearth and the others simultaneously.
But at this time...
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon slowly descended, landing on the island's ground, and then lowered its head.
Storm stood atop the dragon's head, looking down at the group of people below.
"People of Jaya Island, what are you doing here?"
People of Jaya Island?
Vearth was startled. He stepped forward and adopted the traditional Shandia people etiquette.
"Strong stranger, we have come for Enel."
Enel is dead.
"I'm not saying this," Storm said casually, glancing at the tiny figure in the crowd opposite him.
"You should know that."
These two short sentences have an incredibly strong impact.
Since Jaya Island was propelled 10,000 meters into the air by Knock Up Stream.
The Shandia people lived on Jaya Island were later driven off the island by the original inhabitants of Sky Island.
After four hundred years of war, the Shandia people have yet to reclaim their homeland from the Skypieans.
Even Vearth was no match for God Gan Fall.
However, Gan Fall was easily defeated by Enel.
The old gods are gone.
A new god has arrived.
The Shandia people were no match for Gan Fall.
They are even less likely to be a match for Enel.
Yet this is the same "Thunder God" whom the Shandia people regard as the "Sky God".
He just died without saying a word?
Even seasoned guerrilla fighters couldn't help but discuss it amongst themselves.
"Enel is really dead..."
"The god of the Sky Island is dead..."
"Can we finally return to our hometown...?"
Amidst a hushed discussion.
Vearth looked up at Storm.
"So, having defeated Enel, are you now the 'new god' of Sky Island?"
That's an interesting question.
Storm, along with Whitebeard the Third, jumped down from the head of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
"According to the rules of the sea, since I killed Enel, I should take everything from him."
"This island naturally becomes my territory."
Upon hearing this, Vearth involuntarily clenched his fist.
Fighting Enel was despair-inducing enough...
But what if you're facing a powerful opponent who could easily defeat Enel...?
While Vearth was lost in thought...
Storm then followed up with his next words.
"However, I have no interest in becoming a 'god'."
Storm calmly observed the group of Shandia people ahead.
"Now, answer me a question, people of Jaya Island, what is your view of 'God'?"
The atmosphere was almost frozen.
"Anyone who wants to rule people in the name of 'God' will be punished..."
Vearth responded without hesitation.
"They are all enemies we must eliminate!"
Even in front of Storm.
Vearth still firmly stated those words.
This is also the spiritual belief of the Shandia people have persevered in their struggle for hundreds of years.
Whoever rules this sky island.
As long as it's a god.
Then they are the enemies of the Shandia people!
"Very good, I like this answer very much."
Storm clapped softly, looking at Vearth with admiration.
"So-called gods are nothing more than monkeys dressed in brocade."
