Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

"However... the current ruler of the 'Sanctuary' Appaard is Enel, and he... is very strong..."

Is Enel strong?

Very strong!

He wields destructive power with lightning and is an "unkillable" monster.

A three-masted sailing ship could be destroyed without a trace...

Even though Rocks had just punched out a deep gash, he didn't think Rocks would be a match for Enel.

Because Enel can also cause this level of destruction, and even more.

Enel could cause similar destruction with a casual bolt of lightning!

Upon hearing the name Enel, Rocks thought to himself, 'Looks like Enel didn't go wandering off to other sky islands. Hmm, Nami's Devil Fruit is settled...'

After all, this is three years before the original story began.

Rocks couldn't really guarantee that Enel was on Skypiea, but now he knew that Enel was here.

This is great news!

"Huh? What?!"

Nami noticed that the chief was neither surprised nor shocked by the bounty offered on Rocks and Yixiao.

The words also subtly implied that Rocks and Issho were no match for that Enel.

She was utterly baffled: "Old man, do you not know how terrifying someone with a bounty exceeding 800 million Berries is?"

"That's a super strong individual who can fight against a Marine Admiral!"

Does this old man not know the significance of what she said above?

That makes sense; after all, this is a floating island, so it's normal for it to be isolated from information...

“I know that 800 million Berries is an extremely high number, but we rarely have contact with the Blue Ocean and don’t really understand what that means…”

The chieftain chuckled dryly, then said solemnly, "However, we have witnessed Enel's power with our own eyes."

"The enemy can transform into lightning; a casual attack could wipe out our entire tribe..."

"To completely annihilate this tribe?"

Nami looked around and couldn't help but mutter, "It's just a small tribe, isn't this something Xiao Luo can easily handle?"

Judging from the size of this tribe, it is about the size of two Black Demon ships.

However, Rocks could probably destroy it with a single punch.

There's no need to draw the Seven Star Sword...

Enel... he sounds so weak.

Chief: "?"

Did he hear that right?

"Transform into lightning?"

Yi Xiao pondered, "It sounds like a Logia-type Devil Fruit ability related to lightning. If that's the case, it shouldn't be underestimated."

"The three admirals of the Marine Headquarters are also Logia-type Devil Fruit users..."

Thunder is synonymous with destructive power.

If Enel is indeed a Logia-type Devil Fruit user with lightning-related abilities, then his strength is definitely not weak.

The power of lightning is no less than that of the three admirals' magma, ice, and flash...

Is this Enel a powerful figure with the strength of a Marine Admiral?

That's not to be underestimated!

"Huh? A Logia-type Devil Fruit related to lightning? Could this Enel be a Marine Admiral-level powerhouse?"

Nami was astonished upon hearing Ichisho's assessment.

She knew that all three admirals of the Navy Headquarters were Logia-type Devil Fruit users...

He frowned slightly, sighing, "If that's the case, then things will be difficult..."

The strength of the Navy Headquarters Admirals...

They're definitely not to be trifled with!

hateful!

Wasn't it supposed to be "unclaimed" gold?

How could such a powerful expert suddenly appear?

Nami glared at Rocks, as if to say—didn't you say no one claimed it? What are we going to do now? This is about my share of the profits!

"..."

Without needing to sense Nami's emotions, Rocks knew what Nami's gaze meant, and a smirk involuntarily twitched at the corner of his mouth.

He wasn't wrong.

The gold on this floating island is indeed in a state of "unclaimed".

The Shandians, who have lived on the Sky Island for four hundred years, only want to reclaim their homeland and have no interest in gold whatsoever, besides, they can't spend it here on the Sky Island...

The Sky Island inhabitants are unaware of the value of gold; in fact, they don't even recognize it. They consider gold worthless, believing that "land" is far more valuable than gold...

Enel was aware of the value of gold and was using it to build the Ark "Maxim," but the gold did not belong to him; he had merely stolen it...

One didn't have a cold, one didn't recognize gold, and one stole it...

Kill the person you stole.

Isn't gold just "unclaimed"?

Is there anything wrong with that?

"We'll find out once we meet them. Since Apayado has gold, Poneglyphs, and the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, we naturally need to make a trip there."

Locus counted on his fingers and chuckled, "Besides, we need to stay here for a while, so naturally we need to have a good 'chat' with the ruler of this sky island."

"It wouldn't be good if they accused us of illegal entry later."

I came to Skypiea with the intention of seeing Enel, so naturally I had to meet him.

Given their personality, there's a 99% chance they'll provoke them.

If you provoke someone, they become your enemy.

Once the enemy is gone, that's that...

Nami gleaned something from Rocks' tone: "Little Rocks, how come it seems like you already knew about their existence?"

"Did your grandfather tell you that too?"

"I guess so. I heard the old man mention that there was a Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user on a certain sky island."

Rocks once again dragged old Duke into the blame: "This Rumble-Rumble Fruit user once destroyed another sky island, and then went to this sky island to lord it over everyone."

"To be honest, I came here for the other person, intending to give their Rumble-Rumble Fruit to Nami, as it should be a good fit for her."

"what?"

Nami was stunned.

Did Rocks want to give her the Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit?

It sounds stronger than the Sand-Sand Fruit!

Xiao Luo is so good to her!

Locke smiled and said, "Of course, it depends on whether the other party becomes our enemy. If he is not our enemy, I will not take action against him."

Robin glanced at Rocks: "Destroying a sky island... that doesn't sound like the act of a good person. Sky islands are inhabited, doesn't that mean..."

She felt that Rocks must have come for her, and that he knew she was on this floating island.

She was also curious about Rocks' adoptive father.

The other side not only cultivated such a powerful person as Rocks, but also possessed so much secret intelligence.

It must be some hidden, senior expert, right?

Perhaps it has something to do with the former maritime superpower, "Lox"?

Otherwise, they wouldn't have named Rocks "Rocks"...

"He destroyed a sky island, and the people on the sky island naturally could not escape their fate. This Enel is a ruthless and vicious person."

Rocks was unaware of Robin's opinion of old Duke.

Otherwise, I would definitely burst out laughing.

With a grin, he said, "After all, I'm a good person, so of course I wouldn't choose to lay a hand on an innocent person..."

Enel, who considers himself a god, might not take action against them?

No way!

Two tigers cannot share one mountain, and two "gods" cannot share one empty island!

Chapter 145 Enel's "Provocation"! The Attacking Priests!

Lockes and his companions decided to travel to Apayado, which is the other half of Jaya Island.

But let's have lunch first before we go.

Rocks and his companions were entertained by the people of the Hidden Cloud Village tribe.

The uniquely flavored cuisine received high praise from Rox and others.

After eating and drinking to one's heart's content.

Lockes and the others then decided to head directly to the "Sanctuary" Apayado.

But then they saw several Shandian warriors also heading there...
