Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

Crocodile was not only shocked by the terrifying power unleashed by the thunder dragon, but also by the death of the man who regarded death as a mere breeze.

"Trying to reach God at the cost of one's life? How ridiculous!"

Enel spoke with a hint of mockery in his expression.

"If those tiny sand blades could temporarily entangle me, then there would still be a chance to deliver that final blow."

"Unfortunately, this mere sand blade is no match for my power!"

Enel's gaze immediately fell on Crocodile, and he asked arrogantly.

"Next is you, you foolish human who manipulates sand. How much are you willing to pay to reach the gods?"

"You bastard..."

At this moment, Crocodile became completely enraged, spitting the cigar he was holding to the side, and a large amount of sand began to gather towards his palm from all directions, as he spoke.

"This really annoys me, so much so that I'd love to see what you'll look like when you're struggling and begging for mercy."

"A giant sandstorm!!!"

In an instant, a terrifying sandstorm rapidly expanded within the palace, engulfing the entire palace.

And thunder, too, continuously shone brightly within this sand-covered scroll.

……

In a secluded corner outside the palace, apart from his robes being slightly charred, Yann stood unharmed next to Dorrag.

"Chief of Staff, Crocodile seems to be angry about your 'death'!" Dragon said with a hint of sarcasm.

As Yann patted the charred spots on the robes that Baby-5 had transformed into, he glanced at the terrifying sandstorm that was gradually turning the entire palace into sand and made a guess.

"Perhaps, under Enel's guidance, Crocodile subconsciously believed that his mistake led to my death, so he subconsciously denied his mistake and became angry and ashamed."

"Probably."

Dragon agreed. "I just don't know how long this anger will last."

"It will probably last until the moment I fully realize that I am no match for Enel..."

After a pause, Yann continued.

"Hopefully Enel can find an opportunity to deal with Crocodile as soon as possible, otherwise if he comes to his senses and runs away, it will become a future problem."

As Yann finished speaking, a colossal giant composed of countless bolts of lightning suddenly appeared in the palace, which was enveloped by the sandstorm!

For a moment, under the astonished gazes of Yann and Dragon, Enel completely deviated from his usual character of toying with weak opponents, and instead revealed his strongest form.

"Two Hundred Million Volts Thor!"

[Chapter 332 The Swordsman Facing Thunder]

As Enel revealed his strongest form, the Thunder Giant, composed of two hundred million volts of lightning, exuded a suffocating aura.

Countless citizens of the Kingdom of Alabasta witnessed that terrifying sight, their eyes wide with fear, instinctively revealing their terror.

Is that kind of power truly something that humans can possess?

I'm afraid that just a few casual blows could completely destroy the entire capital.

Enel paid absolutely no attention to the fear and panic of ordinary humans.

Enel was concerned that the High Priest was actually worried that he, the God, would let such a guy get away.

How can it be!

Enel, in his "Thor form," caused all the sand that came near to crystallize simply by releasing terrifying voltage, rendering Crocodile unable to control it.

"This guy has actually developed a Logia-type Devil Fruit to this extent?!"

At this moment, Crocodile's expression was equally astonished, his eyes wide with shock as he stared at the enormous body composed of endless lightning.

This level of power far exceeds what Crocodile's "Sand Sand Fruit" ability can counter.

Or rather, under the terrifying lightning of up to two hundred million volts, sand simply cannot get close.

"Damn it, where did this monster come from? This kind of guy doesn't even exist in the first half of the Grand Line; he should be fighting for a place in the 'New World'."

Crocodile quickly snapped out of his anger, muttered a curse under his breath, and, realizing the disparity in strength between them, immediately considered retreating.

Its own sand was no match for the opponent's thunder!

However, before Crocodile could truly make up his mind, Enel, who had transformed into his "Thor form," raised his arm towards the sky and said.

"Human, let me show you the power of a god!"

Enel is arrogant, conceited, and a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), but he is definitely not stupid!

Otherwise, Enel could not have developed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to such a terrifying degree without even understanding the concept of Devil Fruits, and he could not have mastered Observation Haki purely by virtue of his talent, and even developed the unique "Mind Network" by combining the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's ability.

In terms of talent alone, Enel's talent far surpasses Crocodile's!

Therefore, after hearing Yann's order and realizing that he was going to deal with a sand human, Enel began to plan ahead how to kill that guy.

Finally, Enel's solution was to completely submerge the sand with a sea of ​​thunder.

The thunderclouds that blanketed the entire kingdom of Alabasta were not purely for intimidating humanity, but rather for accumulating power!

At this moment, Enel's raised hand in the "Thor pose" serves as the catalyst.

In an instant, countless bolts of lightning began to erupt wildly from the thunderclouds that had enveloped the entire capital of the Alabasta Kingdom and had been accumulating power for almost half a day!

In a fleeting moment, the once pitch-black sky was filled with countless shades of azure!

"Boom!!!"

The sounds of countless thunderclaps mingled together, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were splitting apart.

"Thousands of thunders!"

As Enel clenched his fist, countless bolts of lightning cascaded down from the dark clouds like a funnel-shaped waterfall.

In an instant, the dazzling light that burst forth from the convergence of countless bolts of lightning even made countless people in the capital who turned to look towards the palace feel as if they were under the sunlight.

"Boom~~~"

The sound of thunder echoed in the ears of countless people for a long time.

When everyone's vision returned to normal, the sandstorm that had enveloped the palace and soared into the sky had vanished without a trace, and the entire palace had been completely razed to the ground. Only the thunder giant remained standing on the earth.

The ground where the palace was originally located was also flattened several layers by countless bolts of lightning, and a large amount of crystallized sand reflected the light of the residual electric arcs.

Enel's well-prepared attack not only targeted Crocodile, but also included all the sand within the palace grounds in the range of his thunderous strike.

"How dare these mere humans who play with sand provoke the thunder?"

Enel's arrogant and disdainful voice echoed throughout the capital, causing countless people to turn pale.

The towering sand tornado stopped, and Crocodile had completely vanished...

In other words, the hero of the Alabasta Kingdom... is dead!

Enel, in his "Thor form," slowly floated up, his imposing aura inspiring fear in countless people. The thunderous roar that echoed throughout the capital city further instilled trembling in everyone.

"Is this all humanity can achieve? I have given you the opportunity to challenge the gods, but alas, this is all you are capable of. I am truly disappointed."

"Submit to the might of thunder, for I will establish an eternal divine kingdom here!"

Just as all the citizens who were fleeing stopped in their tracks, too intimidated by Enel's power to move,

The wind... has risen!

This breeze brought a refreshing sense of freedom to the oppressive capital city.

Under the watchful eyes of all the citizens, a tiny figure appeared on a tower outside the palace, a whirlwind of wind swirling around his hand, a sword pointing diagonally at the ground, seemingly trying to use his small body to block the thunder giant who was comparable to a god.

"Huh? You're still alive?"

Enel, who had maintained an arrogant and lazy tone, seemed to uncontrollably reveal shock and confusion in his voice at this moment, as if something far beyond his expectations had happened.

"The wind will never die!"

Yann's somewhat deep and hoarse voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly carried to the ears of countless people by the wind.

"So what? To a god, moving one finger or moving two fingers makes no difference!"

However, Enel, who had just displayed godlike power, now spoke with a hint of exasperation... and fear.

At this moment, upon realizing that Crocodile, the hero of the Alabasta Kingdom, had fallen in battle, countless citizens inexplicably felt a faint glimmer of hope once again.

Even though Yann's figure was so small compared to the Thunder Giant, he seemed to make the Thunder Giant wary of him.

Princess Vivi watched Yasuo's retreating figure with sparkling eyes, clenching her little fists and muttering, "Go, Teacher Yasuo..."

"Your Excellency Yaso..." King Cobra murmured, his words barely audible to himself, as if in prayer.

Just as Arn felt the atmosphere was set and was about to bring the plan to a perfect close, a female voice, completely unexpected and strangely familiar, rang out from afar.

"Swordsman who faces the thunder head-on, let me lend you a hand."

[Chapter 333 A Strike That Cuts Through Thunder]

That sound?!

Yann's eyes, hidden beneath the mask, widened slightly as he turned to look in the direction of the sound.

The familiar white cloak of naval justice fluttered in the wind amidst the city shrouded in thunderclouds as a group of elite naval officers, led by Gion, came into Arn's sight.

Gion?!

Why is she here?

Yann never expected that Gion would appear in such a place, and at such a time, to arrive in the Kingdom of Alabasta.

Enel's voice remained completely unmoved by the appearance of the Gion Marines.

I am working with the High Priest on some important matters that require my full concentration. Why do these foolish humans always have the audacity to approach and disturb me?

Help the great priest?

Is the affair between this deity and the high priest something that such a foolish human woman could interfere with?

Enel raised a finger in his "Thunder God form," and a terrifying bolt of lightning instantly descended from the thick, dark thunderclouds above, striking Gion directly on the head.

Before the sound of the thunderbolt even reached her ears, in just a flash of light, the lightning had already appeared not far above Gion's head.

'not good! '
