Chapter 511 Lukes Hiding Place

Upon hearing Luke's question, the audience was taken aback. They knew Ganfall as the former god of Skypia but had not yet considered what the term "former" implied. Suddenly, it dawned on them: Ganfall had been overthrown. His divine status had been usurped. This revelation added a layer of intrigue, especially since the current participants included the Shandians, who had been displaced by the Sky Islanders, and Ganfall himself, now dethroned.

What made this even more fascinating was the pattern of the Q&A live broadcasts. Typically, these sessions featured victims of various calamities, such as the Straw Hat Pirates who had become entangled in numerous adventures across Fishman Island, Punk Hazard, and beyond. Victims like the Kyros father and daughter from Dressrosa had suffered under Doflamingo's conspiracy. These broadcasts often exposed the perpetrators or initiators of these crises.

Given this pattern, the audience was nearly certain that the current broadcast would focus on the new god of Sky Island. This shift in focus was unexpected because previous broadcasts often revolved around exposing secrets of the World Government, with whom Luke notoriously had tensions.

This development brought a rare moment of relief to the Five Elders, who felt momentarily distanced from the heat of Luke's usual targets. They had yet to extend their influence to the sky; whatever transpired on Sky Island was outside their control. This time, if Luke attempted to pin any blame on them, they were prepared to deny any involvement vehemently.

The Five Elders, curious about the identity of this new protagonist in Luke's narrative, glanced at Ganfall and the others, wondering who had managed to steal the spotlight in this episode.

Meanwhile, Enel, the actual subject of this discussion, watched the live broadcast with a mix of anger and disdain. To him, the very notion that mere mortals could challenge or discuss his actions was an affront to his divine status. If he could pinpoint the location of the broadcast room, he would have struck down everyone involved with lightning. Regrettably for him, his powers, though formidable, were limited to Skypia. Outside of his domain, his influence waned, forcing him to reluctantly let go of his wrath.

Under his rule, the residents of Angel Island watched the broadcast in fear, careful to not utter a word that might draw his ire. Enel's anger manifested as thunderclouds that loomed ominously over the island, a silent threat to all below.

Amidst this tension, Wyper and the other Shandians deferred to Ganfall to answer Luke's probing question. Ganfall, taking a deep breath and locking eyes with Luke, responded, "Answer: Enel. Enel arrived in Skypia six years ago, defeated me, and claimed the title of God. He rules now."

Enel—a name unfamiliar to those in the blue sea. Ganfall's explanation revealed that Enel was not originally from Skypia but another Sky Island, and remarkably, he had no prior reputation in the wider world.

"Correct answer," Luke confirmed, then elaborated, "Enel, aged 37, originally came from a Sky Island city called Birka—which he destroyed six years ago. The perpetrator of the city's destruction was none other than Enel himself."

This revelation shocked viewers. The concept of someone destroying their own homeland was almost unthinkable, drawing parallels with Kurozumi Orochi of Wano, who, fueled by vengeance, nearly ruined his own country.

The people of Wano paled at the comparison. The potential destruction of Wano was their worst fear, one that seemed increasingly possible if driven by a leader's deep-seated anger.

As for the residents of Angel Island, they were terrified. Although they had lived under Enel's rule for six years, his past was a mystery to them. His cruel actions, now coming to light, made them fear for their future under his continued dominance.

On the other hand, the Five Elders were less concerned with Enel's brutal history and more intrigued by how Luke had obtained such detailed information about Sky Island's secretive affairs. Their failure to locate Luke previously had been frustrating, but this revelation led them to consider a new possibility: perhaps Luke was not hiding somewhere across the sea, but above it, in the sky.

This theory led the Five Elders to gaze upward, contemplating the sky as the possible sanctuary of their elusive adversary.

Luke, undeterred by the undercurrents of fear and speculation his revelations had stirred, readied the audience for more disclosures, maintaining the momentum of his expose.

"Let's delve deeper into the reign of Enel and the implications for both Sky Island and the world below. Stay tuned," he announced, setting the stage for the next segment of the Q&A session.
