Daily Life: Someone Worried Sick / Daily Life: Little White vs. Marco the Phoenix

"Big Fool, you can't lose. You absolutely can't!" Even Kaku was getting nervous. "I don't care how you do it, just win. Right, the Ruyi Jingu Bang! Use it as soon as the match starts! Don't hold back—send Jozu flying with one blow!"

Enel: "..."

"Shut up! I know what I'm doing!" Enel snapped. "I'm not losing this match. I'd rather die!"

With that, Enel stormed toward the match area.

Kaku watched him go, worried sick. He made a private decision: whoever he fought from now on, and whatever it took, he had to win.

Back at the match area.

Enel and Jozu entered at almost the same time.

Enel stood two and a half meters tall, but beside Jozu, who was over five meters tall, he looked like a shorty...

"Let's begin!" Without hesitation, Enel took the Ruyi Jingu Bang from where it rested over his ear. (As someone asked earlier: it was tucked there like a cigarette, not stuck inside his ear.)

"Whoa, that kid's weapon is interesting."

"It just appeared out of nowhere. Is it a magic trick?"

"It looks like a staff, but why do I get the feeling there's more to it?"

"Hahaha, you've just got your eye on the gold patterns at either end. Wonder if that's real gold. Sure looks like it."

Whitebeard's crew chatted and laughed among themselves.

Neither Enel nor Jozu paid them any attention.

Without a word, Enel struck the Thunder Drums behind him twice with the Ruyi Jingu Bang.

A Thunder Dragon shot forth, a faint glimmer of gold flickering through it as it roared toward Jozu.

Jozu immediately used his Devil Fruit power, turning himself into a man covered in countless glittering Diamonds.

The Thunder Dragon passed straight through his diamond-covered body and dispersed.

All it left on
