132 Chapter 132

Akainu was sitting at his office, reading the daily reports. 

After killing a few pirates as a morning routine, Akainu would be in a good mood to do his work, of course, after drinking a coffee and smoking a cigar. 

Usually, this would help him to get in the mood. However, there had been something that he couldn't get over his mind. 

It seemed that Josh, the first one to injure Admiral Akainu, is a Warlord now. 

'That trickster…' Akainu half-closed his eyes, recalling the battle they had. 

Surely, Akainu had been injured by Josh, which not even the Yonko's commanders can do to him. Akainu now regretted not telling the Five Elders that Josh had tricked him. It was a shameful thing to say. However, Akainu had originally thought that Josh can be defeated by a Vice Admiral easily since he is nothing but a mere trickster. But surely, Momonga had been defeated. 

Akainu held one of the papers, which is saying that Momonga, one of their best swordsmen and good men, has passed the danger stage. 

Another report is showing that Josh had become a warlord after that battle. 

'He, somehow, in the time he faked his death, managed to learn Haki so quickly to defeat a Vice Admiral in a swords battle, and Momonga was one of finest swordsmen.' 

This means that Josh is more dangerous than Akainu had expected. Someone who could hold a sea-stone dagger without losing his Zoan form is more dangerous than anyone can expect.  

Knowing such a trickster, Akainu believed that Josh would be stabbing the Navy in the back. 

Akainu would never forget Josh's words that day, and how he had shown his hate to the World Government and spat on Justice. Such a trickster is a danger to them, and there is no denying that he would rebel one day. 

But there is no way that Akainu would say it, knowing that the World Government would ignore him. 

Akainu is now just an Admiral. He can't change the world. That's why he has to work in the shadow and climb the ranks. Only then he can make absolute justice takes its rightful place.

But until the day his absolute justice shall raise, he has to act low for the celestials pigs

Akainu put down his cigar and said. "Come in." 

The door to his office was opened without knocking. A man entered, not surprised, his coat of Vice-Admiral was floating. 

"How did things go?" asked Akainu with expectations of success in his eyes. 

The man flinched, recalling a few bad memories in his eyes. "Horrible," replied the Vice-Admiral. 

Akainu frowned, his shoulder unleashing smoke as it turned into magma. 

Sensing the heat, the Vice Admiral said. "But I managed to pull it through." 

"What did you mean by horrible?" Akainu asked in a stern voice. 

"That Celestial Dragon… he is a horrible being. 20 wives, each one of them is a beauty among beauty…" the man took a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up with his finger. After blowing smoke, he said. "For a single man like me, having to witness that… how do I say it… it horrible. And I'm someone who asked our fellow beautiful marine out more than a hundred times and I was refused. I need a vacation to recover, under the blanket, with Play Pirate Boy Magazine." 

"Stop complaining!" Cut him Akainu. "He took the envelope?" 

The Vice-Admiral was meant to give one certain Celestial Dragon an envelope. Akainu was good at manipulating people, just not as good as one certain little Devil. Akainu's hopes were on that envelop. 

"Yes, he did." Replied the Vice Admiral as he lowered his cowboy hat, turned, and walked out of the door. "If Gion refuses me this time, I'll be destroyed…" the Vice Admiral complained as he made his way out. 

"Hmmm…." Akainu gave him no attention as he stood up and walked to the window, looking at the endless sea. "The scum would face the scum among scums." Akainu had a smirk, knowing it would be a great disgusting thing to see. 

-x-X-x- 

"The Godly ordeal." Said Enel, who was standing in front of Josh. 

Josh started walking around while staring at the man that appeared in front of him. "Amen." 

Enel is a pale-skinned man with a well-toned yet somewhat wiry build, standing very tall at 266 cm. He has a slim face, usually seen with a relaxed, half-lidded expression accentuated by a calm, confident smile. He has blond hair and blue clear eyes. On his back, there was a ring, with 5 drums attached to it. 

"You don't know what was coming to you," Enel said with a small smirk on his face, the drums behind him shining in blue light. 

Josh said. "A cliche is the best you could come with." 

"I'd rather call them classics. But no. I have this." Enel extended his finger toward Josh, smirking in a sadistic manner. 

That finger had a few lightning sparks on the top of it. 

*Boom* 

A dooming sound echoed through the surroundings. From Enel's finger, a long bolt of lightning flew toward Josh, at speed that even the fastest eye can't follow. Josh jumped.  Although he had predicted it, dodging something like lightning isn't a possible feat. Josh observed how the lightning passed by his chin. Had his feet been contacted to the ground, the lightning would have attracted him, and dodging wouldn't be possible. 

When Josh landed on the ground, the tree behind him was set on fire. 

Enel smirked while looking at Josh. "You're quite lucky, aren't you?" 

"Who knows?" Josh smirked back at Enel. "Something bad can happen today and you believe you are unlucky. A few years later, you would think it's the best thing that happened and you were lucky."  

Josh felt his heart beating quietly higher than usual. He was excited. What Josh had just experienced now was something that required him to use his Observation Haki. If he was a part of the second late, he would have frozen temporarily due to the huge voltage. 

Josh's talents would surely reward him in this battle. 

'Such a perfect training for Observation Haki.' 

"Sure, come to me." Enel opened his arms, cocky. 

Having a smirk on his face, Josh's arms and legs turned into a demon's limbs, a couple of red bat wings appeared on his back. 

Josh extended his hand forward, and from it, light gathered, before it turned into a beam. 

Enel, who was having a cocky smirk, opened his eyes widely. 

His body, all of the sudden, turned into a lightning bolt that moved, dodging the light beam in the last second. 

*Bam* 

A large tree, which was bigger than 20 stories building, had a big hole appearing from where the light beam passed. 

"You… a Devil Fruit user as well!" Enel said, sounding worried all of the sudden. "A devil about that, I see…" 

Enel was now sitting on the top of one of the trees. Josh looked at him and found that he has to admit that Enel is fast-moving when turning into lightning. 

Enel started laughing. "A demon against a God… he.. Ha ha Ha…" 

Josh started laughing as well.

[Ding… A new gamble is available.] 

While laughing, Josh wondered if he would have the time to read through the notification. But he kept laughing
