Chapter 168 - Skypiea 04.

[Chapter Size: 2300 Words.]

Third Person POV

Skypiea, First Half of Grandline.

....

...

The area around was in turmoil, with flames licking at the trees and a thick curtain of smoke rising into the sky. Beneath the ground, where Enel had been buried by the impact of Luffy's punch, there was a sudden explosion. A bolt of lightning shot upwards, and Enel emerged from the rubble, visibly more injured. His face was bloody, and one of his eyes was purple, clearly marked by Luffy's strike.

Enel stared at Luffy, who was still on the ground in the same place he had attacked him, with an expression of pure hatred. Without saying a word, he unleashed a series of lightning attacks towards Luffy.

The lightning bolts flew towards Luffy, who looked at them with an expression of amusement. He began to dodge the attacks while the ground exploded in debris around him, reminiscent of the fight between Nika and Kaido, where the original Luffy launched the lightning bolts with his own hands from the sky against the mighty Yonkou. The fight between Luffy and Enel created spectacular explosions all over the island, a true show of lights and energy.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Black Pearl was approaching the city of angels. The people in the city were scared, running from one side to the other, trying to take shelter. They looked at the fight in the distance, watching the spectacle of light created by the two powerful elements in conflict. Fear was etched in their eyes, and they sought refuge as the battle between Luffy and Enel continued, marking the sky of Skypiea with their fury and power with each explosion between the two elements.

In the city of angels, chaos reigned as the battle between Luffy and Enel intensified. The normally quiet streets were now filled with panicked inhabitants.

"The god Enel is furious! We have to protect ourselves!" shouted one of the residents, his voice trembling with fear as he ran, seeking refuge.

"Let's run, we don't want to be destroyed by him!" exclaimed another, pushing a cart with hastily packed belongings.

"Let's run, mom!" a child held the hand of his mother, both running among the desperate crowd. Men, women, and children of all ages hurried through the streets, some seeking shelter in their homes, others opting to leave the city entirely.

Aboard the Black Pearl, which was approaching the city, Vivi watched the scene with concern. "They seem really scared," she commented, observing the commotion below.

Nojiko, beside her, added: "They haven't even noticed us. They are more worried about hiding in their homes or even leaving the city..."

Suddenly, a deafening sound cut through the air.

BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!

The explosion came from afar, a powerful reminder of the fierce battle that was happening at that moment. The shockwaves could be felt even in the city, causing windows to tremble and some weaker structures to sway. The inhabitants of Skypiea looked up at the sky, their faces marked by fear and desperation, as they witnessed the clash between two unimaginable powers.

"But Luffy is also going overboard..." Kuina grumbled, hearing the explosions in the distance. She looked at the sky, where the battle between Luffy and Enel created distant thunders.

"He's fighting against a user of the logia fruit of thunder," Robin commented, emphasizing the magnitude of the opposing power the captain was facing.

*BOOOOOM!!!!*

Alvida, with a look of relief, added: "At least that 'God' has stopped launching those lightning bolts at us." She recalled how lightning bolts constantly fell on the ship to destroy them as soon as Luffy flew away.

Kuina looked at Zoro, who was lying on the ground, his body marked by burns while some lightning appeared around him. "Good for Zoro..." she said, recalling when he tried to cut one of the lightning bolts in half but ended up being hit without managing to cut the bolt as he wanted. Despite the swordsman's talk of cutting the lightning, Yamato managed to repel Enel's power with his haki-coated weapon right after.

*BO

OOOOOM!!!!*

"Next time I'll manage to cut the lightning..." Zoro murmured, his voice low but full of determination despite his injuries.

"Stop talking!" Chopper reprimanded, a little irritated with Zoro's recklessness, while tending to the swordsman's wounds. He worked meticulously, bandaging the burns.

Hachi, visibly scared by the situation, looked at the others. "Nee... Anyway, what are we going to do now?" he asked, his voice trembling slightly.

Yamato assumed the posture of a confident leader. "We'll wait for Luffy to finish his fight. Nami and Hugo are with him, so everything will be fine. We can explore the city," she said, with the calm of a vice-captain.

Shirahoshi, excited and oblivious to the gravity of the situation, jumped with enthusiasm. "Yay! Let's explore the city of angels!" she shouted, confident that Luffy would emerge victorious, regardless of the challenge he faced.

BOOOOOM!!!!

BOOOOOM!!!!

BOOOOOM!!!!

BOOOOOM!!!!

The explosions continued to echo through the sky, a symphony of chaos that made the island's inhabitants wonder what was happening and how someone could confront the god of the sky.

In the temple, the Priests Ohm, Satori, Shura, and Gedatsu watched the battle with expressions loaded with concern. "What's happening...?" murmured Ohm, gripping his sword tightly.

"Someone is fighting against Enel-Sama!" exclaimed Satori, his eyes wide with surprise.

"He just left the temple and went to face whoever had the courage for it," commented Shura, with a hint of arrogance in his voice.

"Should we go help?" Gedatsu suggested, looking at the other priests.

Before they could make a decision, something unexpected happened. A shadow emerged from the forest, hitting the temple walls with a violent explosion.

"AHHHHHHH!!!!" the screams of Enel's women resonated as they began to flee in panic.

"Hey, hey, what's this?!" Satori exclaimed, shielding his face from the dust raised by the explosion.

The priests looked at each other, realizing the situation was rapidly spiraling out of control. Not just with their god, but something began happening to them too.

As the smoke began to dissipate, the immense figure of Nola, the giant snake, became visible. She was impaled on the temple, her massive body sinking into the structure.

"This... is Nola!" Ohm exclaimed, surprised and confused by the unexpected appearance of the snake.

"What's happening..." murmured one of the priests, still trying to understand the situation. But before they could react, two figures emerged from where Nola had been launched.

A man covered in glowing rocks and a woman with orange hair, with luminous green lines running through her body and large white wings on her back, positioned themselves in front of the four priests.

"Who-Who are you?!" one of the priests shouted, clearly surprised and frightened by the sudden appearance.

With a determined expression, Nami replied while floating in the air. "We're the Straw Hat Pirates! We've come from the sea below, and our captain has given us a mission to end any soldier of that false god. Are you them?"

"False god?! How dare you commit heresy against Enel-Sama?!" one of the priests retorted, his voice trembling with anger.

Hugo, already on the ground and ready for combat, spoke confidently. "Looks like they are. Let's finish this quickly!"

Nami nodded, sharing Hugo's enthusiasm. "Yes, I want to enjoy this island and map it as soon as possible. So let's finish this," she declared, taking the lead to initiate the attack.

The priests prepared to confront the invaders, each assuming a combat stance. But before the priests could process the attack in front of them, they were quickly overwhelmed by a storm of attacks. Hurricanes arose within the temple, created by powerful winds and giant claws that tore through the air. Rocks rose from the ground, hurled with brutal force. The priests, caught off guard, barely had time to react to the surprise attacks.

CRAAAAAACCCCKKKKK! The temple of Enel began to crumble under the relentless assault.

Meanwhile, moments before, Enel, consumed by rage, intensified his attack against Luffy. Lightning and the direct attack "El Thor" rained down on Luffy, who was on the ground.

Lightning

BOOOMM!

CRACKKK!!!

The sounds of explosions and lightning filled the air. Luffy, for his part, dodged each one, testing the limits of his speed, now faster than the speed of lightning itself.

In a swift movement, Luffy kicked the ground, causing an explosion that launched him directly towards Enel in the air. Enel, realizing Luffy's approach, fired a lightning bolt directly at him. Luffy, without hesitation, countered with a powerful flame, flapping his wings to gain altitude and confront Enel face to face.

The clash of the two powers, flames and lightning, created a spectacle of light and sound, a duel of giants in the sky of Skypiea once again. Enel, enveloped in lightning, hurled himself at Luffy with divine fury. Luffy, in his transformed form, radiated flames that danced around him, an aura of power and challenge.

Each of Enel's movements was like lightning, fast and lethal, but Luffy met him at every turn, his agility and enhanced reflexes allowing him to dodge and counterattack with equal ferocity. Enel's lightning bolts cut through the sky, an electric network incessantly seeking its target. Luffy, on the other hand, moved with the grace of a flame, weaving through and piercing the electrical storm.

Every time Luffy counter-attacked, flames clashed against lightning, creating explosions that resonated throughout the island. Enel, despite his divine nature, was beginning to feel the pressure of the confrontation. To him, this stranger claiming to be Monkey D. Luffy and emperor of the sea, a mere arrogant mortal, was now challenging a god, surprising and frustrating him. He increased the intensity of his attacks, with denser and faster lightning bolts sprouting from his hands.

Luffy, however, did not back down. He advanced against the storm, his flames growing in intensity. With every dodged blow and blocked attack, Luffy drew closer to Enel, decreasing the distance between them.

At one moment, Luffy got close to Enel despite his attempts to distance himself using his body as a lightning bolt, but Luffy kicked him from behind, sending him crashing down to the island's ground again like a meteor.

"Again?!" Enel shouted in pain as his body collided once more with the earth.

*CRAAAAAAAAAAACKKKK!*

He emerged from the wreckage, frustrated with the pain in his back, when suddenly a sound caught his attention and he realized with his mantra that his temple was being destroyed. He quickly flew to the sky and saw the chaos unfolding at his place of residence.

"What is this?!" he exclaimed, feeling the presence of two unknown individuals attacking his sacred place. He recognized them as allies of the stranger he was facing, infuriating him even more.

Enel's fury was immediate. "How dare they!" he roared, seeing his priests being overwhelmed in combat. In a fit of rage, he diverted his attention from Luffy and launched a powerful lightning bolt towards the temple. This oversight proved fatal, as Luffy seized the opportunity to attack. With a swift charge, Luffy appeared beside Enel in the air and hit Enel with a Haki-charged punch stronger than the previous attacks, sending the self-proclaimed god crashing to the ground again, blood escaping from his mouth.

In the temple, Enel's lightning bolt headed towards Nami and Hugo. They had already been warned by Luffy about the possibility of such an attack and were prepared. Both unleashed their transformations: Nami enveloped herself in a gigantic hurricane that shook the entire island, and Hugo transformed into a colossal figure, rising like a mountain from the ground.

*BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!*

Enel's lightning bolt hit them, but the resistance they had acquired in their transformed forms protected them, making the attack not affect them on a large scale.

*ROAAAAAAAARRR*

Emitting powerful roars, Nami and Hugo demonstrated total control over their new and imposing forms. One of the priests, still conscious, shouted in alarm at seeing the colossal figures above them. When Titan Hugo took a step beside the priests, the mere impact of his leg was enough to send them flying, showing the immense power now at play in the battle.

"We must get out of here!! They are monsters!" shouted another priest, panic in his voice. But before they could flee, Nami acted quickly, releasing a powerful gust of wind that knocked out all the remaining priests, sending them falling 300 meters away.

"This lightning hurt a little..." Nami complained, feeling the effect of Enel's attack. Her body was enveloped in the hurricane she had created, a demonstration of the control she now possessed over her Devil Fruit.

"Yes, but it wasn't serious. And now we have better control of our fruits," responded Hugo, maintaining the imposing expression of his Titan form.

Nami had trained in the use of her fruit in the Alabarna desert along with Yamato, learning to control her transformed form. She knew that the transformations of the Einkons could be uncontrolled at first, but now felt she had better mastery over her own. Similarly, Hugo had reached a new level of control after the chaos in the desert.

They remembered Luffy's words, instructing them to remain in their transformed forms as long as they could, to thus achieve true control of their powers. It was a crucial step to becoming accustomed to their abilities, which had not yet reached their highest level.

Meanwhile, Enel, lying on the ground and spitting blood, realized the grave mistake he had made by ignoring Luffy to attack the invaders of his temple. He stopped his coughing and looked towards where he had launched the lightning bolts, alarmed by the colossal roars coming from there. His eyes widened at the sight of the giants emerging, a scene that defied his understanding of the world.

"What's happening!?" exclaimed Enel, shocked and confused by the turn of events.
