Chapter 113: Invincible Thunder God.

A Shandia warrior hiding behind a tree looked at the tall man standing in the forest.

White turban, bare upper body, patterned lantern pants, holding a golden staff, with Tomoe drums on his back.

Enel?

Watch me take your head!

The Shandia warrior cautiously aimed his musket at the white figure below...

Where did he go?

Could it be...

He turned his head with difficulty, meeting the cold gaze of the tall figure beside him.

Crackle!

...

"Hurry, the giant vine is just ahead!"

The Shandia leader named Mantis, the man with sunglasses and a mohawk, who was used as a combat power standard by the little girl Aisa with natural Mantra ability, sped forward on a small Waver with a warrior.

"Charge the shrine and take down Enel—"

Crackle,

?!

Mantis turned abruptly, seeing a white figure crouching on a nearby tree trunk, holding the warrior who had been following him. Of course, the charred warrior was beyond saving.

"Are you looking for me?"

"I'm right here, Shandia warrior... Mantis."

Boom!

The Waver under his feet suddenly accelerated, and the warrior named Mantis leaped towards Enel on the tree trunk!

"Yahahaha, you want to kill me?"

Facing the incoming spear, Enel casually rested his chin on his hand.

"Alright, I'll give you five minutes."

Splat,

The spear pierced his head, but the one injured was the Shandia leader Mantis! Lightning danced around Enel's 'wound', slowly closing it, forming an arrogant face.

"I'm just sitting here, kill or torture me as you please. After all, I am a god."

---

"Old man, what are you..."

Roman and Nami, having reaped a great harvest, returned to the battlefield, only to run into the Sky Knight Gan Fall, riding his flying horse, Madara.

"I just came out of the shrine, and that 'god' is gone!"

The old man in armor looked seriously at Roman, who was flying with flapping wings and holding Nami.

"I remember... you are those Blue Sea people from yesterday. What are you doing here——"

"Uh..." We can't say we're here to steal gold, right? "We violated the laws here, so we were brought here to undergo trials, and as you can see, that's what happened."

Roman gestured to the forest below, filled with explosions, battles, and black smoke.

"There's a big fight going on down there, but what are you doing here, old man?"

"I have a bad feeling, that... god," the armored knight elder held back from saying the name. "I suspect he's up to something crazy again."

What else could it be, blowing this place to smithereens before leaving. —— Although Roman knew, he couldn't say it out loud because:

"Of course, he's going to blow this place to smithereens."

??!!

"Enel?"

Roman turned around in shock, how did this guy...

"I 'heard' some interesting voices."

Facing the on-guard Roman and Gan Fall, —— as for Nami, she hadn't realized that this was the final boss of Skypiea. Enel, standing on a cloud ball, gave a cold smile.

"The former 'god', and——"

Turning to Roman, Enel showed an interested look.

"A lonely little guy."

"Enel!!"

The armored Pegasus Knight Gan Fall raised his spear and questioned.

"What are you talking about? Blowing to smithereens..."

"It's simple," Enel glanced at the former 'god' of Angel Island.

"Just imagine the worst possible scenario you can think of, that's what I'm going to do."

?!

"I'll fight you——"

Thud,

A figure flashed, no! There wasn't even any sign of movement. Enel, who had been standing in front of the three of them, had already teleported to Gan Fall's side, placing two fingers on the old man's front and back, then:

"20 Million Volts - Discharge!"

The azure lightning instantly pierced through the old knight Gan Fall's body, causing the old man and his mount to fall from the sky, emitting black smoke.

"How dare you, I am a god."

After instantly defeating the formidable Gan Fall, Enel, now sitting back on the cloud ball, looked at Roman, who hadn't even had time to react.

"Your hometown, it's not in the Blue Sea, is it?"

Enel's words made Roman's face stiffen. Before he could think of a response, the man with the thunder drum on his back arrogantly raised his chin.

"Compared to others who don't know my greatness, your heart clearly understands the power of this god!"

"God's Judgment, Thunder Dragon, Thunder Welcome, Ten Thousand Thunder..."

Oh no! Enel is reading my thoughts.

This isn't scientific, he can only read battle... no, I can't think about this anymore!

Roman's face twitched, and he quickly forced himself to recite the periodic table: Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, Beryllium, Boron, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Neon, Sodium, Magnesium, Aluminum, Silicon, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chlorine, Argon, Potassium, Calcium...

"Using chaotic memories to divert attention?"

Facing Roman, who was retreating with flapping wings, Enel showed an interested expression.

"Your knowledge and information... are quite interesting. I, the god, permit you to follow in my footsteps!"

"My four useless subordinates have already been defeated,"

No need to look, the entire Sky Island is under Enel's control. So he had long noticed Roman. As long as Enel focused, he could even read some vague information from the thoughts of others.

Compared to others, the thought waves of the boy in front of him contained the most information about himself, and it was the clearest!

Even more than Enel's four priests, allowing him to 'hear' many interesting things.

"So, how about it? Want to join me in ruling the Fairy Vearth? Even a god like me needs an amusing jester."

Fairy Vearth? The moon, that abandoned planet. Who would...

"You really know."

This time, Enel was genuinely interested.

"Interesting, interesting!"

"I see your heart, anxious and empty."

Enel looked down at Roman, "Being with these Blue Sea people only makes you feel extremely anxious and—fearful!"

"They love to cause trouble, always creating a mess; facing enemies they can't possibly defeat, yet they laugh carelessly."

"And every time you see them talk about their hometown and loved ones with smiling faces and gentle eyes, you force a fake smile, but inside, you're jealous and empty!"

"You..."

Roman felt his whole body stiffen, his mind a mess.

How could Enel's Observation Haki be this strong? Oda misled me... Never mind, even Crocodile was like that. So...

"You call 'Mantra' 'Observation Haki'?"

Enel, with his chin in his hand and head tilted, looked like he had found a new toy.

"Who is that 'Crocodile'? How dare he be compared to a god like me?"

No, no, I can't think randomly anymore!

Focus, deep breaths, deep breaths: a calm heart, unshaken by the heavens...

"Interesting little guy, so what do you think of my proposal?"

"Come with me to the Fairy Vearth, under my protection. You don't need to be nervous, don't need to fight desperately, slowly train, slowly develop your fruit abilities~~"

Enel's words were like the devil's whisper, striking directly at Roman's heart.

"One day, you too can be powerful enough to make thousands kneel before you. —A power only beneath mine!"

Yeah, if I go to the moon with Enel.

(The moon has cities, electricity... With Enel, it can be inhabited.)

With this top-tier Observation Haki user guiding me, patiently training and developing various fruit abilities, even awakening them. With the special nature of my Paper-Paper Fruit, which combines superhuman, superpower, and super creation abilities, I could easily reach the strength of an Emperor before coming out.

Then, where in the world couldn't I go?

Showing off, playing around, how enjoyable! Isn't it better than desperately improving my strength, racking my brains to scheme, barely surviving among various strong enemies?

Even further, even the universe...

The trembling in his arms brought Roman back to reality. Although Nami didn't know who this electric man was, her intelligence allowed her to see the wavering and longing in Roman's eyes! It was as if he would leave this embrace in the next second, and this man who saved her would leave her.

"I..."

The moon is great, no Four Emperors or Seven Warlords;

Become invincible, then show off and succeed;

Seeing the despair in Nami's eyes, Roman finally made up his mind!

"I refuse."

What invincible hiding, to hell with it!

Without experiencing battles, without tasting defeat, such invincibility is nonsense, a castle in the air! I'm a proud man... I haven't fallen to the point of indulging in unrealistic daydreams.

A man must earn his strength with his own fists and feet! The throne of the strong is only comfortable when forged with blood and fire! If you spend all day hiding, what's the difference between you and a dog?

Focusing his mind, Roman was fully alert against Enel in front of him. Sheets of white paper flew out, densely surrounding him and Nami like satellites.

Even if your head gets cut off, it's just a bowl-sized scar,

If you're going to fight, then fight, what's there to fear!

At the same time, a proud and domineering aura rose from Roman's body, radiating in all directions, startling birds to the ground and making beasts crouch.
