New Lightning Fruit User

He charged a massive amount of lightning toward Luffy but it didn't even faze him.

Luffy simply stared at the massive purple ball and closed his eyes. He raised his fist and several cherry blossoms appeared around his arm, creating a thick layer of Haki around it.

The next moment, he thrusts his fist toward the purple ball but his hand didn't even touch it.

On the ground,

Liam eyes glint with red light. He stopped his left hand and poured Haki into his right. The cherry blossom appeared and the next moment he thrust it forward.

Crack!

Small cracks appeared on the surface of the Poneglyph. At this moment, Liam slowly let out a smile and turned his head toward the purple ball.

He saw the cracks appearing all over the purple ball and it slowly turned into a massive explosion of lightning, followed by a powerful sound of lightning.

Boom!

In the sky, Luffy let out a big smile as his body rushed toward Enel. He extended his arm and thrust it toward Enel.

"Bastard, don't think you monkey can defeat a god. I am the Lightning God, Thor. See the true power of God!"

Enel roared and his entire body turned into a deity of lightning. He raised his trident and thrust it toward Luffy.

[Two Hundred Million Volts Thunder God]

Luffy simply punched forward with the Armament Haki flowing out of his body.

[Ape Gun]

Crack!

The Armament Haki pierced through the trident and broke it into pieces before Luffy's punch landed on Enel's face.

Bang!

His punch broke Enel's lightning and struck his face so hard that he landed several meters into the ground.

Thud!

Luffy also landed on the ground exiting his Gear Fourth. His Observation Haki suddenly sensed something as he turned around and raised thumbs up with a big grin on his face.

"Liam, I did it."

"You bastard, not only learned Future Sight but also Advance Armament Haki in just three days."

Liam couldn't help but feel speechless.

The reason why he was able to learn both had a lot to do with his devil fruit. High risk, high return!

But in this case, he had to take a huge risk with a small return. Although Future Sight was amazing, it wasn't worth his Haki, Skills, and even lifespan.

If he hadn't used so much luck before, he wouldn't have to worry about it at all.

"Luffy, I need your help. Use your Conqueror with me!"

Liam walked toward the body of Enel and spoke. The cards appeared around him.

[Bet Established / Requirement Achieved / Reward Devil Fruit / Punishment Crippled Strength, Haki, and Vitality]

[Reward Devil Fruit Card / Punishment Full Strength Destruction, Haki Annihilation, and Two-Third Vitality]

Upon seeing these cards, his lips twitched.

He even gave up vitality this time since he truly didn't need it. But, not only punishment didn't decrease but rather increased because of the lack of luck.

Right now, he wasn't even sure if he should take this bet.

But, when he remembered the importance of this devil fruit, he knew that he had to take this risk. Only then his crew will never have to worry about a lack of strength in the future.

"Liam, do you want to get his devil fruit as well?" Luffy asked. Although he hated Enel for his action, he didn't like the idea of getting others' devil fruit by killing them.

"Don't worry Luffy, we won't kill him. We are just going to take his devil fruit. Right now, only you and I have the power to fight against Admirals but even we won't be able to defeat them."

"If we face more than two admirals, we need someone with powerful speed. And, in the future, you, I, Zoro, and Sanji will be able to fight three admirals and one fleet admiral and win if we get stronger."

"That's why I want to take this Devil fruit and give it to Sanji."

Liam answered.

"Eh! But, will Sanji eat it?" Luffy understood Liam's concern after all he had faced Aokiji and knew just how powerful they were.

Even with a buffed-up version of himself and Liam, they were only able to defeat Aokiji with a series of surprise attacks.

"I believe he will." Liam had absolute confidence in his words. Even if Sanji didn't want to eat it, he could still convince him.

But for now, he believed that Sanji had the mind to eat it.

"Alright then!"

Luffy nodded his head and the next moment, he released his Conqueror Haki. He had been not only training his other two forms of Haki but also his Conqueror Haki during his battle with Enel.

Because his Haki would be depleted in the midst of a battle, he would need to use his Conqueror to deter Enel many times.

Liam had already learned to control his Conqueror during his battle with Aokiji so when Luffy released it, he also released it.

And, just like before, his Conqueror Haki and Luffy's Conqueror Haki superimposed and formed an even more powerful Conqueror Haki.

Even Luffy's own conqueror was enough to deter Enel, not to mention adding Liam's conqueror was more of a bonus.

Of course, that was a precaution that Liam took. He absolutely can't lose this bet otherwise he will lose everything he had worked hard for.

That's when their Conqueror Haki clashed against Enel's mental force, it instantly defeated him and the power of his devil fruit began to gather into Liam's card.

After a few minutes, the Conqueror Haki was already turned off and Liam had just received a new card.

[Goro Goro No Mi]

Soon after, his crew also arrived on the scene. They had already arrived a long time ago but because of Luffy and Liam's Conqueror Haki, they didn't come close.

"Did you get his devil fruit?" Nami walked toward Liam and asked.

"Indeed! I wanted to get his devil fruit for a long time." Liam nodded his head. Then, he looked at Sanji as the card slowly floated toward him.

"Sanji, this power is for you."

"What?"

His words made everyone except Luffy shocked. They didn't expect Liam to choose Sanji for the power of Lightning Fruit.

They obviously knew just how powerful this fruit was. And, right now, Liam could use this card to use the power of the lightning fruit.

"Don't you need it? You can't use the power of your original devil fruit during combat." Sanji paused for a moment before asking.

"To be fair, I am a Haki user. I don't even like using weapons that much. I only ate this devil fruit because I was incredibly weak at that moment."

"Now, I have gained the necessary strength to fight with my Haki alone. Of course, I also haven't explored more of my devil fruit abilities so I don't need to add additional power to my arsenal."

"So, this fruit is for you. I know you don't….."

Just when he was going to say more, Sanji had already raised his hand and touched the card. The power of the lightning fruit got transferred to Sanji the moment he touched the card.

After getting the power of Lightning Fruit, Sanji could feel his whole body getting electrocuted for a moment.

Only after he adjusted to the power of lightning, he truly understood just how broken this ability was.

Now, he was lightning itself which meant he could move at the speed of lightning and deliver quite a powerful kick to his enemies.

For a speed-type fighter, this fruit was the best improvement.

He raised his head toward Liam and slightly bowed down.

"Thank you, Liam!"

He knew the cost of a bet would be extremely high especially when Liam had already used his luck against Aokiji. But, he still took the risk just for himself.

This made him extremely happy and glad to have a partner like Liam.

"I am doing this for the strength of the crew. It's just that I didn't expect you to eat this devil fruit. I thought you would despise eating devil fruit like Zoro."

Liam shook his head and looked at Sanji with surprise.

Hearing his words, Sanji lit up his cigarette and said.

"I am not like Moss Head. He is a pure swordsman so he won't eat a devil fruit until he has no choice but to eat it. But, I am different. The only reason why I didn't want to eat a devil fruit is because I had a devil fruit that I wanted to eat."

"But, I also understood something more important in this journey. When we started, you were barely as strong as me. According to Usopp, you were just as weak as him before."

"But, you made such massive progress. From getting stronger physically to attaining Haki. Although most of it is because of your hard work, your devil fruit also helped you a lot."

"I am also putting a similar kind of effort but didn't achieve the strength close to that of yours. That's why I understood that I need a devil fruit to get stronger."
