Chapter 150 - Alabasta 19.

[Chapter Size: 2000 Words.]

Third Person POV

Alabasta, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

As the dust and sand raised by the impact of the titan's colossal fist settle, Luffy, in his Ifrit form, flies backward. He is visibly shaken, his hand on his jaw, feeling the weight of the powerful blow he just received. Hugo's punch, in his uncontrolled Titan form, was a powerful right hook enough to make even the sturdy Luffy feel the force of its impact.

"Damn, Hugo... that was quite a punch. A big right hook..." Luffy murmurs to himself as he adjusts his jaw.

He looks at Hugo but doesn't seem overly concerned, unlike his crew who watched the scene with slightly worried eyes. Luffy just cracked his colossal neck, ready to fight Hugo as he stared him down.

Hugo's eyes, now red and wild, show no sign of recognition, just the uncontrolled fury of a being that has lost its connection to humanity. He roars silently again, preparing for another attack, while Luffy positions himself to fight the titan.

'I have much more control of my fruit than when I fought against Nami, let's see if I can handle a titan more easily...' Luffy thinks calmly.

He wastes no more time and prepares to face the challenge of calming an enraged giant. The flames around Luffy begin to dance more intensely, reflecting his excitement and readiness for battle. They swirl and twist, creating a spectacle of light and heat that illuminates the surrounding area.

'Hugo! Let's see what you can do! But don't think I'll go easy just because you're my nakama!'

His flames burn so much that, at one moment, Luffy advances with an explosion. He charges towards the huge being from a diagonal angle as he ascends to hit its chest.

Luffy, with intense focus, activates his Moa Moa no Mi ability, increasing his strength fortyfold. He concentrates all that colossal energy into his right fist, which begins to glow with an intense and fierce flame. With a roar that mixes excitement and determination, he launches forward, aiming for the chest of Titan Hugo.

Before the titan can react or defend itself, Luffy's fist strikes it with devastating force. The impact is so powerful that the 100-meter colossus is sent flying backward like a rocket, its massive body cutting through the air and leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. The Titan's chest visibly caves in from the punch, a testament to the brutal power of the blow, and it flies into the sky.

The boom of the impact resonates through the desert, a sound so loud and profound it seems to shake the very earth. Luffy's punch not only sends Hugo flying but also creates a shockwave that spreads through the area, lifting clouds of sand and causing crew members and rebels in the distance to cover their ears and try to protect themselves and prevent the ship from capsizing.

"That's scary!!!!" Chopper screams in fright.

"I want to go home!" Vivi hugs Karoo as she yells.

"Damn it, Luffy, you guys are causing trouble again!" Kuina mutters dissatisfied.

Meanwhile, in the ship's prison.

"Hey, what the hell was all that!!!" Mr.3 is scared, powerful roars and tremors started outside the ship as if there was a huge monster outside, now this force of impact makes most prisoners fall to the ground dazed.

"Honestly.... I don't want to know!" Mikita is very scared of it.

"Something serious is happening out there..." Jimbei comments.

"These pirates, what are they aiming for now..." Momonga growls.

Meanwhile, outside.

Luffy, observing the result of his attack, murmurs to himself with a mix of satisfaction and concern.

"Oops, I think I overdid it a bit." He admits, seeing the titan has become a small dot in the sky.

On the other end of the vast Alabasta desert, a group of tens of thousands of rebels is moving rapidly, riding their horses with fierce determination. The dust raised by their hooves mixes with the dry air, creating a curtain that oscillates with the scorching heat of the sun. They are armed, each carrying the conviction that their mission is just and necessary for the future of their country.

The faces of the rebels are marked by resolution and anger. They have been pushed to the limit, believing that the only way to save Alabasta and ensure a better future is to overthrow the Nefertari family, which they see as responsible for their pains and suffering with the drought and destruction of the country. They talk amongst themselves, their voices laden with emotion and anticipation.

"Today, we will change the fate of Alabasta! The Nefertari family shall reign no more!"

"They will pay for what they did to us, to the people. For the hunger, the pain, the lies!"

"Our families, our children have suffered too much. It's time to bring justice!"

They advance, a wave of human fury sweeping through the desert toward the capital. In their minds, they are not just soldiers in a war; they are liberators, fighting to overthrow what they see as a corrupt and oppressive monarchy. They are willing to do whatever it takes, convinced that the fall of the Nefertari family is the only path to peace and prosperity.

They couldn't have imagined a small shadow like a tiny dot amidst them starting to grow as seconds passed. "Hm... A cloud in the sky?" one asked alarmed, as they hadn't seen a cloud in the sky for years.

"That's no cloud, and it's growing..." said another beside him.

"Wait, that's coming toward us!" A third one shouted alarmed.

The moment Hugo, transformed into a Titan, falls like a stone near the rebels and hits the ground, a vast cloud of dust and sand rises, obscuring the rebels' vision and turning the sky into a dark and threatening shade.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM*

The fall is so sudden and powerful that, for a moment, it seems as if a giant meteor has just collided with the land of Alabasta.

The rebels, now in a panic with their horses and a great confusion created in all their ranks as they tried to stop due to the sudden event, still recovering from the sudden interruption and tremor, look at the dust cloud with wide eyes and panting breaths. The sight of something so imposing falling from the sky shakes even the bravest among them.

"What is that? It looks like the sky fell on us!" one shouts pointing at the smoke cloud.

"A meteor? A government weapon? What could be so big?" another shouts trying to protect his eyes from the dust.

The horses, still nervous and agitated, continue to neigh and twist as the rebels try to calm them. The confusion is evident among them, with each one trying to understand the origin and meaning of what they have just witnessed.

"Stay calm! We don't know what it is, but we can't let ourselves be carried away by panic. Stay ready for anything!" shouted the leader.

As the dust slowly begins to settle, the outlines of an immense humanoid form start to emerge. Gradually, the true nature of the "meteor" is revealed - it's not a space rock, nor an unknown weapon, but the body of a giant, a being of mythical proportions.

The rebels, now realizing they are facing a kind of power they never imagined, begin to reconsider their next steps. The presence of a Titan appearing in the middle of the desert was something no one would believe if it were told; the manifestation of such colossal and terrifying power makes many question the true nature of the conflict in Alabasta or whether they are in some kind of dream.

Now with the colossal form of Hugo, transformed into a Titan, becoming visible, the rebels look up, alarmed and scared, as the 100-meter creature rises before them.

"My God... what is that? This can't be real!" one of them said as his voice trembled.

"A monster... a giant monster emerged from the desert! Where did this come from?" said another, rubbing his eyes in disbelief.

The horses, already nervous, are now in total panic, trying to flee from the threatening presence of the Titan. The rebels struggle once again to maintain control of the animals while also trying to process the frightening apparition before them.

"Is this some government weapon? An ancient curse?" a third one was shouting to be heard.

"Stay firm! We don't know what this is, but we must be ready for anything!" the leader of the rebels was trying to keep calm.

"Stay firm? How can we fight against that? It's like an ancient god has awakened!" Another desperate shout!

"We need to get away! Nobody can face a giant like that!" A fifth one tried to flee.

The titan who was looking at nothing suddenly looks at them, and 40,000 people could see the fearsome face maintaining a fixed smile with a terrifying expression. The giant seemed to have found its prey, and as the Titan moves, each step resonating like the beating of a colossal heart, the rebels are taken by a primitive fear, a survival instinct that makes them want to flee from the immense and unknown danger. They look at each other, seeking answers and comfort, but all they find are the equally terrified faces of their comrades.

While the rebels try to understand and deal with the presence of Titan Hugo, their gazes turn again to the sky upon noticing a new and impressive apparition. This time, it's a different meteor, a massive mass of purple flames tearing through the sky, heading toward the earth with terrifying speed and force.

"Look! Another one is coming! But that one... it's on fire!"

"Purple flames... I've never seen anything like it! What's happening here?"

"They're gods! They're descending from the sky! I knew we shouldn't have started this coup against the monarchy, look who we've enraged!"

The approaching meteor of fire. The purple flames illuminate the desert with a sinister light, creating long and dancing shadows that seem almost alive.

"Is this the end of times? Monsters and meteors of fire?"

"Get ready! We don't know what this is, but we need to be ready to face it!"

With a deafening impact that echoes for miles, the meteor of purple flames hits the ground, not far from where Titan Hugo had fallen. The earth trembles under the power of the collision, and a wave of heat and light radiates from the point of impact.

"What power is this?! Are we fighting gods now?"

"Nobody can fight against this! We need to flee while we can!"

As the dust and smoke begin to dissipate at the site where the fire meteor fell, the rebels watch, waiting to see what will emerge from the flames. They are fearful but unable to look away, knowing that whatever appears, they'll run from there to survive.

The 100-meter titan stopped staring at the rebels and turned its attention to the impact Luffy created with his body. As the smoke and dust provoked by the impact of the purple flame meteor begin to dissipate, another colossal figure emerges from the epicenter. It's Ifrit, in Luffy's final form, a vision of power and fury with vibrant flames covering his 50-meter-tall body. The light from the purple flames reflects in his determined eyes as he looks at Titan Hugo.

Luffy, as Ifrit, emits a powerful roar that resonates through the desert, a declaration of challenge and a call to battle. The sound is so intense and primal that even the bravest of the rebels feel a shiver of fear.

"ROOOAAAR!"

Hugo, still in the form of Titan, remains silent, but his eyes, now more focused, meet Luffy's. There's a mutual recognition, a tacit understanding that the fight between them is inevitable.

"They're like ancient gods... The fight between fire and earth."

"Who could have imagined something like this...?"

Luffy, in his Ifrit form, and Hugo, as the Titan, are about to collide in a battle that will be remembered for generations in this land. It's a confrontation that will define not only their fate but also the future of Alabasta and all who call this vast desert home.
