Chaos, collapse, and imbalance—in that boundless collision, it became a forbidden zone.

Suddenly, amidst the billowing smoke and haze, a streak of light, its brilliance shattered, plummeted downwards at breakneck speed, accompanied by a muffled explosion, leaving a massive crater that crumbled into dust.

"Puff"

Blood splattered everywhere, cracks appeared all over the ground, Enel was covered in wounds, his eyes were weak, and blood bubbles kept coming out of his mouth.

"Damn it!" Enel was extremely weak, especially with the two wounds on his chest. At this moment, the bloody internal organs inside could be clearly seen. These two wounds almost disintegrated Enel.

Just as Enel was caught off guard by the earlier collision, a massive sword light pierced through the air currents and struck Enel squarely in the chest.

At that time, Enel wanted to transform into his elemental form, but it was too late, because his opponent was not only Devil Fruit User but also Great Swordsman, and that's where Enel was injured.

As Enel fell, at the same time, on the other side, a figure, like a cannonball, crashed through the island one after another, finally lying in a messy jungle.

"Wow"

The Golden Lion bent over, his face pale, one hand clutching his chest, blood flowing freely.

At this moment, the Golden Lion was completely blackened, with numerous charred and chaotic wounds emitting an abnormal burnt smell. Clearly, he had been seriously injured. If it weren't for his years of experience, he might have died in that collision instead of being so badly injured now.

Utterly disheveled, Golden Lion wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his figure began to float up, heading straight for Enel's location.

With his eyes half-closed and covered in blood, Enel struggled to his feet, leaning against the cliff face of the deep pit. His body swayed as if he had no bones, and he calmly watched as the Golden Lion slowly approached from afar.

His figure landed lightly on the ground, leaving a bloody footprint. The Golden Lion looked at Enel and said in a deep voice, "I'll give you one last chance. Submit to me."

With an aura of Haki, the Golden Lion, like a majestic lion, exudes unparalleled regal authority, looking down upon all living beings. "Submit to me, and only I can give you what you desire, including the whole world."

"Hahaha," Enel leaned against the wall, his mouth full of blood, his pale face twitching as he looked at Golden Lion with mockery.

"The whole world? You? You old codger who's about to die, I will only submit to you once in my life, never a second time. No one can make me bow my head."

"I am Enel, the Thunder God Enel!" Enel struggled and bent over, his eyes gleaming, and with an imposing aura, he flew out forcefully.

His eyes narrowed, and a bloodthirsty killing intent emanated from the Golden Lion, but it was suppressed in the next second.

If I could subdue such powerful subordinates, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. At that time, this world would be as easy as a piece of meat in my hand.

It has to be said that Golden Lion has grown old, and time has changed things and made him forget some things. If Golden Lion were young, Enel would probably be dead by now, because Golden Lion in his prime would never have wasted so much time talking to Enel, let alone inviting him so many times.

However, Golden Lion gleaned some other information from Enel's words.

"You've already submitted to someone else? Who is he?"

With a grim face, Golden Lion already had other plans in mind. If even such a powerful guy could submit, then the person behind Enel must be even more powerful. If he could subdue the person behind this guy, then his power would definitely rise to a new level.

Thinking of this, Golden Lion looked at Enel with even more intense gaze.

"You want to mess with the boss?" Enel was slightly taken aback, then launched into endless mockery, saying disdainfully, "You're asking for death."

"..." Somewhat annoyed, the Golden Lion's patience was beginning to wear thin.

"Who do you think you are? Give me a break!" He was utterly disdainful. Even when facing death, Enel would never accept insult; that was Enel's pride.

"Boom"

A violent will surged into the sky, causing the entire air to churn and swirl, as if a leaky sieve was slowly turning.

An overwhelming will, reigning supreme, leaves no room for resistance.

Streaks of dark red lightning flashed, and a pressure slanted down on Enel.

"Kneel down."

Enel's words were a direct challenge to Golden Lion's authority. Immediately, Shiki glared at him and unleashed his full Conqueror's Haki, striking Enel's mind with tremendous force.

"Puff"

Unable to stop spitting blood, Enel's face was contorted with rage, veins bulging on his face and neck.

His body, covered in wounds, began to give way and slowly bent over.

No, absolutely not! I swore I would never submit again. I am Enel, I am the strongest, I am God!

Blood began to slowly seep from his seven orifices. Enel's eyes were bloodshot, his fists were clenched tightly, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and his waist bent lower and lower.

"The world is vast, and you are merely a frog in a well!"

"Your limited vision restricts your development; you are fully qualified to soar above the ocean!"

"Enel, I have high hopes for you, don't die."

Enel's head was spinning, as if a giant hammer was pounding on it. His face was covered in blood as he recalled Ye Chen's words to him.

"I used to be a frog in a well, but not anymore. I'm a god, I'm going to defeat that man. Some old guy thinks he can make me submit? What does he take me for?"

Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, the world froze. A flash of dark red lightning streaked across the surrounding space, followed by a violent explosion. Enel's berserk will shot straight into the clouds, stirring up endless waves.

As if breaking free from some kind of constraint, Enel, who was about to kneel, suddenly stood up, his body covered in blood, and glared at the Golden Lion, letting out a roar.

"I'm a god!"

His eyes changed, the Golden Lion's fur rippled, its clothes fluttered, and the powerful wind pressure forced him to take a step back.

"Conqueror's Haki!"

Unbelievable, the Golden Lion was somewhat astonished to feel this will. He hadn't expected that this person would Awakening Conqueror's Haki under his pressure!

Ripples spread from Enel's body, unleashing a torrent of thunder.

His figure stood straight, Enel's face covered in blood, his gaze fixed on Golden Lion with a cold, disdainful look.

In that instant, Enel underwent a complete transformation.

A chilling killing intent emanated from the Golden Lion, a situation he hadn't anticipated. No one could force any Conqueror's Haki user to use it unless they so chose.

It's obvious that Enel won't submit to him, so he can't be allowed to live.

With a flash, the Golden Lion raised his right foot, his sword flashing with icy light, and thrust it towards Enel's heart.

"Since you refuse to submit, then die!"

Ruthless and merciless, the Golden Lion went all out this time.

Seeing the sharp blade hurtling towards him, Enel tried to dodge, but his body had already collapsed, as simply standing up had exhausted all his strength.
