A day passes and the rest of the mysterious men arrive.
The leader looks around and says,
"Gan Fall is severely weakened, we just need to push him back and his support will crumble."
The man slowly smiles,"And then I will destroy all who stand against me and become God of Skypiea. Hu hu hu hu."
"My lord, the other child seems to have escaped."
"That doesn't matter, Our goal is almost acheived. Lets go."
The man then beckons all of them to follow him and leads them back into the forest.
Stryke, still on the tree, scared and hungry then climbs down to him friend's corpse and cries.
"UGGGHGHHG!"
He grabs his head and screams. Head splitting pain takes over and he faints.
A few hours later,
"Where?....." a weak voice is heard. Stryke raises his body sees his only friend's body...
he backs up clutches his head and stares..... everything seems clear to him .....too clear in fact... his emotions seem to take the backseat and his brain is overloaded with the sheer amount of information from his surroundings. Then it hits him.... screams from everywhere.
He looks above him and sees smoke rising everywhere.
"no ...no....NO" he screams.
He gets up and runs toward the only place where there is no smoke, not looking back.
After crossing a long distance, he arrives at a cliff. Next to it, he sees a tree, a wallo tree.
Hungry he walks up to it and sees two weird fruits.Reluctantly he grabs the swirly yellowish blue fruit and bites into it.
"yuck....uwa" spitting in out he grimaces.
But hunger takes over and he eats the fruit fully.
"You managed to escape...." a voice behind him says.
Stryke jumps up and sprints...to the egde of the cliff.
He turns around and sees the devil himself.
Enel walks up to him, his drums making him look more intimidating. He sees the other fruit on the wallo tree and grabs it at a speed which Stryke could not observe. and slowly said, "A devil fruit...hmmm interesting" and swallows it whole.
Stryke sees this and lets out a scream, one of pure fear and indignation and a bout of anger.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, lightning rushes down and knocks Stryke and a part of the vearth of into the white-white sea.
Stryke receiving even more information to his brain due to the fruit he just ate faints midway of the fall and falls through the white-white sea into the majestic blue one.
Enel watches this with wide eyes and says,"Could have been a useful pawn.....hmmm is that my devil fruit power or is it....." he trails off with that thought and walks away.
