Bang!!
"That wretched brat..."
Enel stood up from the damaged deck and cursed.
Whoosh... " Gum-Gum Gatling!"
Luffy forward and appeared above Enel, using his power to strike him.
"Call..."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Enel calmed himself down, stretched out his hands and grabbed the fist that was striking him, and spoke.
No matter how fast you throw a punch, in the end you still only have two hands!
So, get down...
After Enel finished speaking, he grabbed Luffy's hand, bent his left knee, and slammed it into Luffy's stomach, sending him flying.
boom!!
Luffy and crashed into the golden wall behind him, then landed on the deck.
Bang!!
"Cough cough... Damn it, watch out for my Gum-Gum Rocket!"
boom!!
"Too slow, Straw Hat Luffy... Under my Mantra, you have nowhere to hide. You might as well just obediently accept your fate!!"
Enel closed his eyes, but his senses became even sharper, allowing him to accurately judge Luffy's attack and dodge it by turning his head.
Bang!!
Luffy's fist slammed into the ship's deck, shattering it.
Swoosh...
Enel One Flash, and before Luffy could react, his right leg whipped him away again.
" Luffy!!"
Nami watched helplessly as Luffy was beaten by Enel, completely unable to fight back and merely the one being abused. She called out to him with concern.
Swoosh...
"It must be Despair, right? The Straw Hat Luffy ' chances of winning are slim. It'll be very difficult for him to defeat Enel. The difference in their power levels is too great. Even with Devil Fruit powers countering each other, it will be hard for him to win."
Just as Nami was worried about Luffy, Luo Chen, who had been far away from them, came to her side and said something.
"Hmm... it's you! What are you doing here, and why did you come with Luffy...?"
Suddenly hearing a sound beside her, Nami was startled at first, then reacted and looked at him, asking.
"How did I get here? Of course, I'm here to witness this battle."
I just want to see how he, as the chosen one, will defeat Enel, who is far stronger than his original destiny, just to satisfy my curiosity.
Luo Chen explained his purpose to Nami, then stopped talking and turned back to look at the battlefield.
"What 'chosen one'? And what 'preordained trajectory'... Explain yourself clearly!! Hey Luo Chen!!"
Nami heard Luo Chen say something she didn't understand, and her doubts grew. She eagerly asked him for clarification.
But seeing that he was ignoring her, she turned her gaze to the battlefield, where she saw...
Luffy was badly beaten by Enel; his attacks were anticipated and understood before they could even defeat Enel.
Enel, however, easily dealt with Luffy's all-out attack thanks to the power of his Rumble-Rumble Fruit.
boom!!
As expected, Luffy was once again swept away by Enel's blazing golden halberd.
Before he could even stand up, Enel appeared before him via the Golden Teleportation technique and kicked Luffy, sending him crashing to the Ark Maxim.
He then turned and went into the cabin to start the power source there.
"Hahaha!! Enjoy these last moments! It's an honor to be destroyed along with the Sky Island."
So, let's begin now, the real feast—200 million volts MAX... discharge!!
Enel returned to the cabin, sat on the throne, placed his hands on the transmitters on either side, and spoke loudly.
After he finished speaking, the current flowed through his hand to the power source, and the ship slowly rose, flying over Luffy's head.
"Wait, our battle isn't over yet! Stop now, Enel!!"
Also, return Nami to her...
With Aisa and the others helping him up, Luffy stood up and shouted at Enel in the sky.
"Hahaha!! Our battle is over!"
You monkeys of the Blue Sea, you can struggle slowly down here, watching in Despair as I destroy this entire island, hahahahahaha!!
Enel's arrogant laughter echoed from above, ignoring Luffy below.
"Damn it, I've already said our fight isn't over yet, stop it!!"
Luffy broke free from Aisa and the others' grasp, stretched out his left hand, grabbed the ship's oar, and used it to jump back onto the ship. However, he couldn't stop himself and crashed directly into the deck.
Swoosh...
"Hmm... what an annoying fly. Looks like I'll have to get rid of you completely!"
Enel sensed Luffy's arrival again inside, completely lost his patience, and teleported in front of him, saying something to him.
" Luffy... no! Let's get out of here quickly and go back to the Blue Sea! We have no chance of winning..."
Nami covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise.
" Nami, don't be so scared. Your partner is the future King of the Sea! You need to have some confidence..."
Luffy stood up and said to her seriously.
"But..."
Nami wanted to say something more, but seeing his confident gaze, she swallowed the words she was about to utter.
"Alright, Miss Navigator, you just stay here and patiently watch your partner do and perform!"
Luo Chen, standing to the side, also advised her to quietly observe how the battle would unfold.
"Hahaha!! King of the Sea? What kind of country is that king of? Never even heard of him! You didn't just make that up, did you?!"
Enel then scoffed from the side.
"Shut up! The Pirate King is the greatest king on this sea, a symbol of freedom! You're not allowed to slander him..."
Hearing Enel mock his dream, Luffy angrily charged at him and threw a punch.
Bang...
"It's so hot, so hot!!"
Luffy's fist came flying, but Enel blocked it by spinning his golden halberd. The intense heat from the halberd burned Luffy's hand, and he quickly moved it away.
"Hahaha... Idiot, you knew the temperature up there would burn you, and you still dared to reach out your hand..."
Enel laughed loudly at his actions.
"Let's just grill them into skewers, Straw Hat Luffy..."
As he spoke, Enel unleashed a burst of lightning from his hand, carrying rolling bolts of Thunderbolt as he Extreme Speed thrust towards Luffy, intending to Luffy through.
Swoosh...
Swoosh...
Swoosh...
Luffy frantically dodged Enel's attacks.
"You wretched Blue Sea monkeys, don't get out of the way!!"
Although he could sense Luffy's movements with his Mantra, Luffy's fighting instincts were still very strong, allowing him to dodge Luffy's attacks with his instincts, which made Luffy very angry, and he shouted loudly.
"How could I not dodge?!"
Gum-Gum Gatling!
While dodging his attacks, Luffy also launched his own attacks. It seemed that intentional attacks alone could not hit him, and the only way for both of them to inflict damage on each other was through superior speed.
"Damn it, his ability is just too strong, I can't hit him at all. How can I hit him?"
While relentlessly attacking, Luffy pondered the best way to defeat him.
Rumble...
As he pondered, a massive vent on the Ark Maxim began spewing out thick, dark clouds, the energy contained within astonishing everyone.
"Hahaha... it's finally starting!"
Enel saw the dark clouds gathering in the sky and laughed loudly.
What do you want to do?
Nami looked at the clouds in the sky and, with a bad feeling, asked him.
I call it [ Despair ]!!
