Chapter 261 - Taking Enel.

[Chapter Size: 2200 Words.]

Third Person POV

Thriller Bark, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Black Pearl continued its course towards the end of the Floriano Triangle as the dark clouds began to dissipate and the Sun started to appear ahead of the ship with its first rays piercing through the mist, while they were finally leaving the territory and emerging near the end of the first part of the Grand Line.

"Finally the Sun!!" Usopp shouted excitedly.

"I'll put on my bikini; I might even leave some marks for tonight." Alvida said beside Luffy, teasing him.

"I would love that." Luffy said, smiling at his wife.

As Alvida left, Nami approached with the Eternal Pose bracelet empty, "Hey, Luffy, what's the plan? What's our next goal?" Nami asked.

"Here." Luffy said with a smile, handing over Enel's Vivre Card, which was intact, meaning he hadn't died in his isolated training. "Head for the Calm Belt, it's time to pick him up." Luffy saw Nami nod without fear of entering a territory like the Calm Belt.

'I hope that thing is stronger than before, I don't want him to embarrass us in the war by getting punched by an admiral and falling defeated...' Luffy murmured in his mind, as his ship sailed into the waters dominated by the Sea Kings, speeding towards a specific island.

It didn't take long for the waters around the ship to become wilder, nor for a huge shadow to appear in front of the ship, lifting a large part of the water into the air and revealing itself to be a gigantic serpent.

"Reiju!" Luffy called his cook.

"Yes?" She approached curiously.

"How's the food stock?" Luffy asked.

"It's full, you stocked it with the last 10 Sea Kings you downsized." She informed him, and he nodded.

Luffy turned his attention to another woman in the group. "Shira, can you send him away?" Luffy asked, since there was no need to kill it.

"Alright, Luffy-Sama!" She said, flying above the ship and looking at the serpent. "Can you leave, King-of-the-Sea-Sama?" She asked in an innocent tone.

The monster did not respond, but merely nodded before returning to the sea, splashing water everywhere.

"Very good, you're getting very good at this." Luffy praised her.

"Did you see Luffy-Sama, was I amazing?" She approached Luffy, grabbing him with her hands before placing his head between her breasts.

"Yes, you're doing great..." Luffy said, his voice muffled as he was embraced by her bosom.

"He's taking advantage of her innocence..." Kuina complained.

"She's 18, she's not a kid." Reiju shrugged.

"He's a womanizer... what did you expect?" Lami complained.

"Spoken by one of the women he picks up." Nojiko commented.

"I'm his wife, aren't I?" Lami retorted.

"Anyway, she seems to be enjoying it..." Vivi commented as Shirahoshi seemed quite enthusiastic about it.

"Innocent, my foot... She wants to become Luffy's wife and has made that clear so many times, she just hasn't because she needs to talk to her father." Uta said.

As the girls whispered, Luffy finally came out from the mermaid's bosom and approached her ear, whispering something before moving away. "Can you do that?" Luffy asked and Shirahoshi looked thoughtful.

"I'll try!" She said as she went to the edge of the boat. "LISTEN, ALL SEA CREATURES, I ORDER THAT NONE OF YOU COME NEAR THESE SHIPS!" Shirahoshi shouted as she released her Conqueror's Haki and a telepathic wave, the sea seemed to tremble at that moment.

"AHHHH a tsunami!" Chopp ran scared.

But it didn't last long, as the sea began to calm down shortly after.

"Haha. Very well, you are a true ruler of the sea." Luffy praised her, seeing that she was gaining control of her power, Poseidon.

"Thank you Luffy-Sama!" She said shyly.

The ship returned to its usual activities, with Luffy sunbathing with his girls or taking one or another to a corner of the ship, varying from girl to girl with his already large harem.

It was two days later that they finally arrived at the island indicated by the Vivre Card, like any island in this region, it was covered with a dense jungle, while the ship began to hit against the sand of the beach.

Everything seemed normal, with some sounds of seagulls, sea waves, and some animals in the forest.

Luffy was the first to start disembarking from the ship as he headed to the island. "I'll check on our companion, and you all, well, do whatever you want," Luffy said as he let his crew members free to explore the island or stay on the ship, it didn't matter to him as he proceeded into the forest.

He was delving deeper into the forest, using Haki to subdue any wild animal that tried to stop him, since he did not want to waste time on such distractions and continued until he began to hear loud explosions of earth breaking and trees being destroyed in the distance.

Approaching, he finally saw Enel fighting against two giraffes that were stomping on the ground, breaking it with their enormous size, much larger than a typical giraffe. After all, the monsters in this part of the world had an overgrowth, more than normal, not to mention some that were as strong as a vice-admiral.

Enel was not using his powers while trying to create Haki in his hands, combating the giraffes' hooves that tried to crush him. Luffy nodded in satisfaction; he knew Enel had noticed him, while seeming more concerned with the fight than Luffy being there, dodging blows and charging at the giraffes, punching here and there. He finally knocked one down, while the other, furious, launched into attacks in his direction.

The fight continued, destroying the area, turning the place into chaos with the intense battle. It was at a moment when he was counter-attacking as soon as he found an opening, knocking down the second giraffe as it exploded onto the ground, fainted with its eyes forming an 'X' shape and tongue sticking out.

"Very good." Luffy nodded, seeing Enel's fists now black, but still a bit flawed.

"You finally arrived, Demon," he spoke as Luffy raised an eyebrow, thinking this guy would never change.

"Well, I see you've learned to use basic Haki, that's good." Luffy said while Enel looked at him, though a bit dirty, with a cocky nose and eyes for the Demon.

"I finally have the power to defeat you and become a true God," he said as he clenched his fist, looking at Luffy as a challenge.

"Oh, is that so?" Luffy smiled. 'Since he thinks so, let's see...' Luffy murmured internally as he reached into his pocket for a key. "Alright, take this," he said as he tossed the key to Enel, who caught it, looking satisfied as he moved it to his handcuff, clicking it open from his wrist.

"That's it! Haha, I'm feeling my strength returning at this moment," he exclaimed in ecstasy, as lightning began to course around him. He laughed like a madman at this moment.

"My powers, finally! No! They are much greater than before, this training has given me strength, now I will be able to become a true God by defeating you," he looked at Luffy ready to challenge him and before he could react, Luffy suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Since you insist on it... I'd like to see," Luffy said and before Enel could react, Luffy launched a punch at the face of the self-proclaimed god. 'If this guy wants a fight, then let's see if he's really all that he talks about and the results of his training...' Luffy smiled, as his fist buried into Enel's face in slow motion.

The man couldn't even react as he felt his body explode the ground beneath him, digging it as he was sent flying backwards, creating a line through half the island while a huge cloud of smoke was raised, attracting everyone's attention on the island.

"They're fighting, aren't they?" Kuina looked towards the center of the island from the beach.

"Damn, Captain, I wanted to fight him," Zoro murmured as he walked through the forest, seeing the animals running away from the place; he had already defeated a dozen of them for training.

"Who's fighting against the master?!" Baby-5 exclaimed while kneeling and cleaning the deck of the ship.

"Will the battle be as intense as in Skypeia too?" Usopp wondered, sitting in a beach chair.

"I doubt it. Enel is far behind everyone's training. After all, if he stayed here all this time, he didn't get the benefits of Luffy's fruit like us," Hugo commented beside him.

Suddenly, lightning began to explode from the sky towards the island, making the entire island tremble as Enel unleashed all possible attacks on Luffy on the island's ground.

"You're slow," Luffy commented amid the lightning bolts, while Enel, with a broken nose and a bleeding face, looked frail. He was frustrated, after all, it seemed that even his training that made him feel truly more powerful had not been enough to face Luffy, because Luffy began dodging all the lightning as if dancing through the air, getting closer to him each time.

When he punched as he approached, Enel vanished turning into lightning and distancing himself a bit, seeing that he did not want to feel that last punch from the pirate again. However, Luffy was faster; he also disappeared from the spot and Enel, even with his high observational Haki, couldn't react when Luffy brought his hands together and lifted them up, delivering a direct uppercut to the ground behind him.

Enel felt his back bend at that moment as he flew like a rocket, even amidst lightning, even resembling a natural lightning bolt falling from the sky. Enel burst into the ground making the entire island tremble even more with Luffy's force as trees and even mountains began to collapse.

"Ow, help, help!" Chopper screamed frightened in a corner of the island.

"He's overdoing it," Uta complained on the beach.

"I hope Luffy hasn't killed him like that, he's bad, but he's still our companion..." Vivi commented beside her.

"Nee... almost dropped my takoyakis!" Hachi complained while frying his food.

"I want more!" Yamato exclaimed from his beach chair eating his takoyaki.

"Me too!" Shirahoshi exclaimed from the chair next to him, swaying her tail.

As the dust of the island began to dissipate, Luffy landed on the ground calmly, not far from where Enel lay unconscious in the middle of a crater. "Wow, that was quick," Luffy commented, looking even a bit disappointed, but shrugged it off.

He picked up Enel by the arm and swung his body as he threw him into the air towards the beach location, Chouchou, who was sitting on the ship watching some members on the beach wagging his tail. He saw the object falling near him and didn't care, only turning when he saw Enel hit the deck and roll on the ground unconscious, scaring even Baby-5 who transformed into a gun and pointed it at the fallen man.

Chouchou approached, sniffed Enel, then positioned himself beside him, lifting a leg and relieving himself on the fallen God. Luffy returned to the beach at this moment and asked Baby-5 and Chouchou to join them; he set up a volleyball game in the middle of the beach, but somewhat regretted it because the beach was destroyed as they began to use their powers during the game, and the island was split in half because of it.

In the end, they had to have a feast in the middle of the island while the sea flowed through the middle of the place.

Still enjoying being on solid ground, after all, they always had feasts in the middle of the sea. The next day, Enel woke up all bruised while Chopper was there taking care of his bandages. "What happened?" Enel spoke with difficulty.

"You got beaten up by Luffy, so you should rest," Chopper commented as Enel knew what to answer to that, Chopper left as soon as he finished without saying much, leaving Enel alone.

The little doctor approached the deck after taking care of his current patient and went to meet the others as they departed from the modified island, after all, it had become two.

"Hey, has anyone seen Zoro? I wanted to fight with him," Kuina suddenly said.

"Zoro... I haven't seen him since yesterday," Usopp inquired.

"Since the feast?" Kuina asked.

"No, he's been missing since we landed on the island," Robin, a detailed woman, stated,

"So he got lost as usual... I thought using observational Haki would have solved that problem..." Luffy murmured hearing them ask about Zoro, as the island grew ever more distant.

Meanwhile, Zoro had arrived in the middle of the split island. "Strange, I don't remember this river..." He said, and his stomach growled at that moment. "Damn, I've been hungry since yesterday and can't find anything here to eat, did Luffy and the others get lost?" He murmured.

Elsewhere in the Calm Belt, a ship with two large serpents was approaching Black Pearl, while Hancock let her dress sway in the sea breeze, eagerly waiting to soon meet her husband and the father of their daughters in her belly.
