Chapter 56 : Luffy in Danger??

"Luffy..."

Inside the Marine Headquarters, Vice Admiral Garp gazed skyward with a tense expression. Even his calloused fists couldn't help but clench.

Watching his grandson engage in battle against such a formidable adversary, claiming that he wasn't worried would be a blatant lie.

However, fretting at this moment would be futile. Garp had no choice but to place his hopes on Luffy, hoping that he could emerge victorious from this conflict. Though, the chances were slim. 

The other man's intentions were fundamentally different from Garp's. That man was none other than Sakazuki, Akainu. Right now, Sakazuki's demeanor remained calm, but beneath that facade, he was smirking.

It seemed Enel hadn't met an easy demise after all. Previously, when Enel was incapacitated due to shock, Sakazuki had been somewhat disappointed. 

He hadn't expected things to conclude so effortlessly. After all, one who had mastered the Thunder-Thunder Fruit possessed a strength that the Straw Hat kid couldn't possibly contend with. 

Now, none of Luffy's companions were in any condition to continue fighting, leaving him to face Enel alone. 

How could he possibly emerge victorious? Sakazuki could only hope that Enel would continue to display his ruthless character and vanquish Luffy.

In doing so, Sakazuki would eliminate the concerns regarding Luffy's potential growth. After all, Luffy was Garp's grandson, and if he were to achieve greatness, it could pose a substantial problem. 

In any case, Sakazuki firmly believed that Luffy had no chance of winning against Enel. The possibility of survival seemed exceedingly slim.

"As a horrifying bolt of lightning burst forth, Luffy swiftly evaded with agility."

"The fearsome lightning struck a stone wall a hundred meters away, instantly shattering a large area."

"Even from her hiding place at a distance, Nami couldn't help but feel terror when she witnessed this terrifying power."

"With her abilities, she couldn't assist Luffy; all she could do was observe from afar."

"At the same time, she prayed in her heart that Luffy would overcome Enel and save everyone."

"Oh? He dodged!"

"But that's alright; let's see this move..."

"For Enel, the failure of his initial attack didn't surprise him in the slightest. Thunder gathered once again in his hand."

"Sixty million volts!"

"In an instant, even more horrifying lightning accumulated, surpassing any previous strikes in terms of sheer power."

"A massive thunder dragon had even formed behind him, appearing monstrous and terrifying."

"The thunder dragon roared and lunged towards Luffy."

"At this moment, Luffy, having just evaded an attack, hadn't yet reacted."

"Despite the rapidly approaching Thunder Dragon, Luffy remained motionless."

"Oops!"

When Garp witnessed this scene, his eyes widened instantly. This sentiment was shared by those behind him, including the Two Admirals, Kizaru, and Aokiji.

Even Mihawk, Law, Moria, and Doflamingo were shocked by Enel's attack.

Sixty million volts... Such terrifying lightning could reduce even rocks to ashes. No matter how robust one's physique or Haki, it would be difficult to escape without severe injuries. 

At least, in the depiction, Luffy didn't seem to possess the Armament Haki yet. He was in grave danger.

Sakazuki's heart raced with excitement. He couldn't conceal the satisfaction creeping onto his face. Could it be that the Straw Hat kid, this nuisance, was finally meeting his end?

**BOOM!**

"The terrifying Thunder Dragon struck Luffy."

"The colossal entity pierced right through, leaving a trail of scorched black destruction in its wake."

"Just when Enel believed that this attack had vanquished Luffy..."

"He turned around, only to be utterly dumbfounded."

"Luffy still stood in place, his expression a mix of bewilderment."

"All that remained were a few faint wisps of green smoke wafting from his head."

"It was as if the colossal Thunder Dragon that unleashed sixty million volts had never touched him."

"What!?"

Garp and Sengoku were left utterly dumbstruck. The Three Admirals and the Warlords shared this sentiment. 

Most bewildering of all was Akainu himself. Could it be that the Thunder Dragon hadn't truly struck the Straw Hat kid?

How was this possible? It couldn't be an illusion; the power contained within that Thunder Dragon was palpable. 

If anyone present had to face it head-on, even with Armament Haki, they would hesitate to guarantee their safety.

Yet, here was Luffy, unarmed with Haki, seemingly untouched.

It couldn't be an illusion, right?

Enel was momentarily stunned but quickly regained his composure, maintaining a forced grin on his face.

"Even if I don't understand how you've managed this, it won't make a difference in the face of sheer power."

"You won't be able to withstand my next move."

"One hundred million... volts!"

Enel shouted, and tremendous lightning surged from his entire being, enveloping every direction.

He leaped swiftly towards Luffy and discharged all the lightning towards his head.

**BOOM!**

The grin on Enel's face grew wider. "Hehe, under the wrath of this godly thunder, you will meet your end!"

At that moment, the skys roared with a tremendous thunderous sound...
