A sudden feeling of weightlessness struck.
Once the rocks crushing Enel had compacted, Luo swung his small sword, cutting them into several pieces that floated into the air.
Enel strained his head, shaking it from side to side.
The rock pressing against his head burst apart. His floating head surveyed his body, which had been sliced into pieces and scattered around:
"I've been cut apart. Interesting..."
Crackle-
Electric light erupted from the scattered rocks, shattering them, and Enel's body re-formed.
He extended his index finger and flicked it repeatedly, firing bolt after bolt of lightning at Luo.
Luo used his ability to bend the lightning aside as he dodged, charging toward Enel.
But the lightning no longer came with that deafening boom capable of stunning people. Its sound and vibrations had been reduced several times over.
Enel raised an eyebrow. Silence, huh...
He looked at Rosinante outside the circle.
Rosinante spread his hands awkwardly, looking helpless...
Inside the circle.
Luo had already reached Enel.
Enel flicked his hand, instantly melting the gold bracelets on his wrist into a short golden baton.
He thrust it toward Luo's chest.
But Luo made no attempt to dodge. The instant Enel's baton touched his chest,
he vanished.
He appeared behind Enel, gripping his small sword with both hands and aiming it at Enel's heart:
"Scalpel!"
He wanted to take Enel's heart, but Enel's powerful Observation Haki allowed his body to react even without being consciously activated.
His chest transformed directly into lightning. At the same time, Enel snapped back to attention and reached behind him.
Whoosh-
Luo vanished again, appearing in the distance.
The lightning in Enel's chest condensed back into flesh. He looked at Luo:
"So you swapped places directly with an object."
Well, damn... teleportation...
Luo gave a soft snort:
"That's right."
