Chapter 239 - Enies Lobby 16!

[Chapter Size: 2100 Words.]

Third Person POV

Enies Lobby, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Luffy had started his fight again with the admirals, and it continued. The structure of the island itself began to give way, already completely fragmented since Luffy had dug up the place with his power and now collapsing as the pressure of the fight between Luffy and the admirals continued to damage the island even more, where it began to crack and crumble.

The fissures spread across the ground like the veins of a giant or as if Whitebeard was there using the power of his fruit. The sound was deafening; the earth groaned and split, creating chasms that threatened to swallow everything and everyone. Sailors ran in all directions, training and discipline giving way to the most basic survival instinct. Shouted communications tried to organize a retreat, but the voice of reason was drowned out by the chaos the island had become.

Buildings that had withstood so many conflicts were now cracking and collapsing, sending clouds of dust into the air. Structures once imposing, symbols of the power of marine justice, were reduced to rubble. The marine headquarters on the island, a bastion of order, was now cracked, threatening to collapse at any moment.

"This!! How can this be happening?!" That scene of terror was being broadcast on the screens in front of Sengoku at the headquarters, leaving everyone, even Garp, being restrained by his superior, frowning as he watched the scene.

"Well... This is quite bad." Kuzan commented, sitting in a chair. He didn't want all those sailors to die, and if he were there, he could surely connect the island with his ice so it wouldn't crack, but it was too late for anything but to watch all that destruction.

On the battlefields, the vice admirals and the Straw Hats felt the ground sway under their feet. Some were winning the fight while trying to finish off their opponents as they made their way to assist others before retreating.

The dock, where moments before sailors were trying to organize counterattacks from their ships, was now pandemonium. Sailors helped their wounded comrades to a safe place, while others bravely tried to maintain order, directing everyone to the ships that could still set sail. Cannons and ammunition, ready to be used against the pirates, were now ignored in favor of ropes and lifeboats.

And at the center of all this, Luffy and the admirals continued their deadly dance, perhaps blind to the destruction around them, it seemed that the whole setting did not seem to affect them as the admirals tried to eliminate the pirate and he wanted to delay them so his crew could escape, despite still losing the fight.

It was just a moment for them to breathe that they saw the real destruction of the island being created everywhere.

"This?!"

"Hm?"

"..."

All 3 were surprised with varied expressions of what was happening as they realized it.

"This is bad..." Kizaru had to comment, he was quite concerned about the sailors there, unlike Akainu who, despite being surprised, looked at Luffy injured and wanting to kill that threat to the sea, even if everyone on that island died with it.

"We should help them..." Kizaru commented.

"No, let's deal first with that pirate!" Akainu countered, making the other admiral frown.

However, an explosion occurred next to Luffy, lifting the ground, and as the dust settled, Yamato, Zoro, and Hugo appeared at this moment to join the fight against the admirals.

"Looks like you managed to get away from your fights." Luffy commented calmly.

"Yes." Zoro responded calmly.

"We came to help!" Yamato commented with a calm smile.

"How are the others?" Luffy asked.

"The fights not yet won are being helped by some others." Hugo commented, and Luffy nodded before beginning to heal once again and look at his adversaries.

"More of them?! Did the vice admirals fail?!" Akainu growled, seeing that if they were here, the fight against their opponents was won by the pirates.

"This is getting bad for us..." Akainu commented.

"We can't let them escape!!" Akainu roared and launched his lava fist at the pirates who began to dodge and advance, now with the fight more balanced as all the pirates here could use haki to hurt the logia users.

On the other side, in one of the ground holes, Tsuru emerged with some blood on her body breathing a little hard, and she felt pain all over her body, the last blow from Kaido's daughter knocked her and her colleague down, she felt the island shaking and made a decision while looking towards where Luffy and his companions were against the two admirals.

"Everyone!! We must help the marines get off this island!" She issued the order, and those who were still engaged in a stalemate fight against the pirates heard it, beginning to retreat.

"Hm?!" Vivi sighed a little as her opponent backed away, despite giving her a frustrated look while listening to Tsuru's orders.

"What should we do?" Nami asked in the air.

"Let's go back, let Luffy and the others hold the admirals off so we can return!" Nojiko spoke beside Alvida, who, after winning her fight, came to assist her.

The defeated vice admirals began to emerge from the ground, still injured and even though they looked angrily at the pirates, they started to follow Tsuru while trying to save the marines before the island fell off the cliff.

Lami tried to hit an enraged Doflamingo as everything around became threads, even creating clones of himself against the pirate, making even her struggle to face the Shichibukai at this stage, even with him bleeding without his fingers from one hand.

"This is getting tough..." She frowned as she cut through a thread clone of the man, and when he was about to attack Lami from behind with the original, a fireball hit him making him fly, it was Reiju arriving to help her.

"You need help, don't you? My opponents had to retreat, so I came to help you." She commented calmly.

"..." Lami wasn't angry, just nodding at the woman's intervention.

Doflamingo growled and saw that the pirates were indeed retreating; he then made a decision, one that he would later regret, raising his hand to the sky as he launched threads towards the two pirates, a huge cage appeared over the island covering the place.

"What is this?!" Chopper shouted frightened from the ship as he saw the huge cage covering the island while they remained outside.

All the marines who were leaving the island were surprised by this, after all, they could no longer pass through those threads.

"Now no one can leave! Fufufu." He laughed while Lami and Reiju frowned, however, all the other Straw Hats looked at him.

"That bastard!!" A vice admiral growled looking at the warlord.

"He's sabotaging us too!!" Another spoke.

All the marines were angry with Doflamingo at this moment, with the exception of Akainu, Doflamingo didn't even seem to be aware of everyone looking at him at that moment, while he laughed.

He didn't even feel when Yamato appeared behind him, with her weapon, hitting him while breaking all his bones, making him spit blood. Luffy immediately asked her to kill him, the same could be said of the other Straw Hats, because before Doflamingo could react, Kuina appeared and launched a freezing cut, affecting one of his arms.

"This?!!" Doflamingo growled as he felt the difficulty when he sensed through haki numerous people approaching him from all sides, Lami, Reiju were already fighting him, but Nami, Reiju, Alvida, Vivi who were fleeing, immediately became hostile and went for the Shichibukai being pressed.

"Should we help him?" Someone asked.

"No, the bastard even wants to kill our men, let the pirates finish him off." Tsuru murmured calmly.

"But didn't the government want him alive?" A vice admiral asked cautiously.

"They did, but we can't do anything when he brings this upon himself." Tsuru answered, she wouldn't pity Doflamingo after what he did to the island.

Doflamingo, seeing he was in a bad situation, winds, explosions, fire, ice among many abilities cornered him, making him start to receive quite bad damages for him, even his awakened devil fruit couldn't deal with the pressure of so many powerful people targeting him and even if he canceled his fruit covering the island, it was very unlikely that his enemies would stop attacking.

He could do nothing but try to fend off the attacks.

"Hm?!" In a moment, he felt his arm being shattered into several pieces of ice, his chest being pierced, bone breaking, and losing consciousness last as Yamato hit him with her weapon on his head, sending him flying to the ground and digging into the island even more.

A moment later, the cage he created was deactivated, and the sailors began to return to the ships while they had built a temporary bridge at that moment to cross the abyss beneath the island.

Luffy, Hugo, and Zoro continued fighting against the admirals, although the pressure on Luffy was not as great as before, it was clear how difficult it was for Zoro and Hugo to fight them, even injuring them.

"Go back!! Head to the ship while I hold them off!" Luffy ordered, after all, he was the fastest of the crew, who could deal with them while he could escape.

Nodding, both began to retreat. Seeing this, Akainu growled and could use his companions to lure Luffy while flying towards them, but Luffy was faster and did not let the admiral pass while punching him back, but Kizaru appeared at that moment, kicking Luffy.

Luffy flew like Akainu after being hit but still managed to keep the admiral away from his companions.

"What an idiot..." Luffy got up, not speaking to the admirals, but feeling the Shichibukai unconscious underground without an arm and another hand without fingers, he seemed to be severely injured and in a coma.

"Your crew really scares me..." Kizaru commented, also seeing the sad end of the Shichibukai.

"This fight was not good for you, after all, the navy suffered a great defeat here today." Luffy commented while spitting blood on the ground and looking at the admiral as Akainu also joined his side angrily.

Luffy had to hold off these two admirals, so he began to release his final transformation, growing to become a complete Ifrit.

"We're arriving!" Vivi commented, landing on the deck as they flew to the Black Pearl.

"Is Luffy still fighting?!" Uta asked worriedly.

"Yes..." Reiju commented, looking at the explosions as Luffy appeared in his final form.

"He asked us to depart..." Zoro arrived with Hugo.

"Let's prepare to set sail!" Hachi spoke.

"We're not being shot at anymore, so it's better we depart!" Nami commented.

In the fight, Luffy seemed to be trying to hit flies as Kizaru and Akainu pushed him back with injuries, devastating half of the island as he launched his flames and haki fists, but he was struggling.

In a moment when Kizaru was about to launch a rain of light, Yamato appeared in the air, making him dodge her weapon. "Yamato?!" Luffy asked.

"I wouldn't leave you here alone." She said, landing on his flaming shoulder.

"Let's hold them off a little longer." Luffy said, and in the next 10 minutes, Luffy and Yamato started a fight against the admirals while the island began to plummet from that side.

Some navy ships tried to take down the fleeing pirates' ship from a distance, but the crew quickly dealt with any approaching bullet.

Seeing that the ship was in a safe position, Luffy undid his transformation and caught Yamato by surprise in the air.

"What are you doing?!" She yelled, but Luffy just spun her around without her being able to do anything and shot her towards their ship on the horizon and used his moa moa no mi on her, making her speed increase 80 times, making her disappear.

Luffy looked at the admirals. "It's time for me to leave, goodbye!" Luffy announced and quickly flew with his increased speed, Akainu could not follow him, but the same could not be said for Kizaru.

"Kill that pirate immediately!!!" Akainu growled.

Luffy continued in the air, fleeing from Kizaru trying to catch him like a game of cat and mouse, the island began to collapse at that moment while the sailors tried to escape.
