Enel Defeated by a Non-Combat Crew Member

After leaving the training grounds, Dawn headed straight for the underground laboratory in the research institute.

The atmosphere here was completely different from upstairs. Bubbling chemical reagents, instruments flashing with eerie light, and a faint sweetness hanging in the air.

At the level Ancient Technology had reached, as long as the Devil Fruit ability was not something far beyond the realm of science like the Time-Time Fruit, there would be a corresponding way to counter it.

Caesar's eyes instantly lit up.

He was no fool.

In an instant, he understood what Dawn meant.

That was right. Why did he have to clash head-on with Enel?
