369 Marco Mission, Regular Crew Member Power

Setting aside his reputation, Katakuri is definitely a strong man who commands fear among many pirates just by himself.

However, Katakuri remains humble because he sees himself as just a regular member on Whitebeard's ship, not some big name.

Let's put Whitebeard aside for now. In front of such a strong man, everyone else will be overshadowed.

Just talking about the commanders on Whitebeard's ship, they're all talented. Even Katakuri heard that Kuzan recently joined Whitebeard's pirates.

However, it's worth mentioning that even though Kuzan joined the Whitebeard Pirates some time ago, this hasn't been widely publicized.

Kuzan hasn't appeared since joining, and the Whitebeard crew hasn't made it public.

Katakuri also heard about it from the Whitebeard Pirates. Therefore, he felt that Whitebeard's reputation didn't rely solely on his help.

Katakuri still saw himself as part of the Charlotte Family masterpiece, so he felt insignificant.

But Enel didn't see it that way. He's a simple person and took Katakuri's words at face value. He regarded them all as facts.

So, after listening to him, Enel's face was completely shocked.

"What? Insignificant? Is Whitebeard really that scary?" 

Enel showed a trace of suspicion, shocked by the idea that there could be such a powerful person.

Katakuri nodded and said, "He's very strong, so strong that it crushes your will to fight."

Marco added, "It seems like you really don't know about Oyaji. On his ship, there are many commanders like us, and Whitebeard is someone we all look up to. You could say he's the king of this world."

Enel's face turned ugly, but he quickly tried to prove them wrong with his actions.

"I don't think you're all that strong, because I haven't used all my strength yet. Now, I have to get serious. If you haven't shown all your strength, go ahead and do it..." 

Enel said calmly.

Marco and Katakuri exchanged glances before encircling Enel from left to right. Enel remained calm, gradually closing his eyes as an invisible Thunder Grid spread out around him, covering the entire area.

Marco led the attack, rushing like a meteor towards Enel. However, just before he could reach Enel, Enel vanished into thin air.

Katakuri quickly scanned the area and swiftly locked onto Enel's new position.

Enel instantly appeared in another direction.

"What a speed" 

Marco sighed at the speed displayed by Enel

Katakuri also attacked Enel, his fists covered with Armament Haki, rushing forward. But just like before, Enel disappeared in an instant.

At that moment, Katakuri chased after him with extreme speed.

Katakuri used his Observation Haki to predict Enel's position. He thought he would indeed hit Enel this time, but Enel also predicted his movements, and his figure disappeared again.

"It seems hard to hit him,"

Marco observed. He noticed the quick succession of Katakuri's attacks, making it difficult for Enel to evade. However, Enel managed to meet both conditions perfectly.

Enel's mastery of Observation Haki is exceptional, allowing him to sense incoming attacks. This, combined with his lightning speed, enables him to evade with precision.

Enel can not only summon thunder but also transform his body into lightning, thanks to his Logia Devil Fruit. This makes his movements as swift as Kizaru's, moving at the speed of light.

"It seems we need to broaden our approach," 

Marco mused to himself, acknowledging the thunder's speed and power as formidable strengths.

So, Marco quickly spread his flame wings, casting a brilliant cyan glow across the sky like a dazzling spark. He want was to launch a ranged attack, forcing Enel to dodge and simultaneously revealing any vulnerabilities.

Marco charged at Enel like a giant flame bird, creating a big impact. Enel was forced to dodge further, while Katakuri remained vigilant, keeping his eyes fixed on Enel.

When Enel moved, Katakuri immediately launched an attack. Then Marco released his Phoenix flame, widening the scope of the attack.

During the dodge, Enel was scratched by the Phoenix flame, and it continued to burn on his body.

"Damn it, what's happening?" 

Enel felt irritable. The cyan flame wasn't hot, but it couldn't be extinguished and kept burning on him.

Enel tried to use the power of thunder to extinguish the cyan flame, but it persisted, causing him more and more pain. Irritated, Enel unleashed a powerful thunderbolt from his wrist.

Enel's arm was flooded with blue electricity, and soon he released a thunder beam, hitting Marco directly.

The huge thunder blasted fiercely. Marco's massive body, despite its fast speed, also felt the impact.

Unable to dodge in time, Marco was hit head-on by the thunder pillar.

The strong current ran through Marco's body, causing serious damage. Katakuri immediately stopped his attack and turned to check Marco's condition. Marco's body even emitted a puff of smoke.

"Marco, are you okay?" 

Katakuri asked, concerned seeing Marco state

"Don't worry, I'm fine, just a scratch" 

Marco joked as he stepped out of the range of the thunder beam. Some of the thunder that erupted from the blast hit the sea below, instantly revealing the carcasses of many fish on the surface.

"He's alright?" 

Enel's gaze narrowed slightly. He's confident in his thunder power. Such an attack should have had an effect. 

Unless it's someone like Luffy, whose body doesn't conduct electricity. But even then, the sheer force of the thunder should have caused some damage.
