One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

The crimson figure, suspended in mid-air, observed the battlefield below like an outsider, its mind racing with thoughts.

The fight between Zoro and Sanji is clearly no longer worth watching.

The strength of the Five Elders is what it is. Even including Saint Satan who died earlier, only Saint Nassuro and Saint Vochuli are considered powerful among the original Five Elders.

But now, they are completely countered by Zoro's God-Slaying Sword Style.

In the pirate world where only physical strength is cultivated and not spirituality is neglected, Zoro's God-Slaying Swordsmanship is a complete game-changer.

If it weren't for the vast difference in strength, even Im wouldn't have fared well against Zoro's God-Slaying Swordplay.

Next, we just need to wait for Zoro to wear down Nasujuro and the other two, and then deal with Maz and the other two who are being controlled by Sanji.

These Five Elders, who have persecuted the pirate world for hundreds of years, have now completely withdrawn from the stage of history.

"The rest depends on Luffy's side of the battle."

Crimson suddenly looked up and gazed towards the starship area behind the glacier.

Boom!!!

A dazzling flash of lightning suddenly appeared.

Suddenly, Luffy grabbed a bolt of lightning from somewhere, materialized the elemental power, and stabbed it into Im from his palm!

That's right!

That's it!

There were no tricks, no backup plans!

Meanwhile, Im, seeing the lightning in Luffy's hand, made no attempt to dodge and instead stepped forward to meet it head-on.

That posture seemed to say, "Try stabbing me!!!"

Stab it! ! !

With a flash of lightning, Luffy's lightning spear pierced Im's body without hesitation.

It was supposed to be a battle between two of the world's top experts, but their fighting style looked like a brawl between thugs, completely lacking in skill.

However, when the lightning, radiating supreme power, pierced Im's body, it was like a branch falling into water, instantly merging into it without causing the slightest ripple.

At that moment, Im's chaotic voice suddenly rang out:

"It's no use, Straw Hat Boy!"

"You are not the real Joy Boy; you failed to inherit his true power!!!"

Im could sense that although Luffy was equally powerful, he did not have the kind of "freedom" that Joy Boy had that left people helpless!

That was the power of freedom that was forged through the prayers of countless slaves!

They possess a natural self-control over their desire to dominate everything.

Therefore, in front of Joy Boy, Im was always beaten without any chance to fight back.

But now, he can clearly sense that Luffy does not have that kind of "free will".

Although Luffy's fighting style remains as unrestrained as ever, he is only following his own heart, not the heart of this world!

Luffy's "freedom" at this moment is only his own freedom, not the freedom of the pirate world!

This is the difference between Luffy and Joy Boy.

"I was never Joy Boy!!!"

However, Luffy's smile remained unchanged despite Im's questioning.

He then leaped suddenly, his massive body moving like a spring, nimbly creating distance between himself and Im.

Luffy immediately looked up, a bright smile spreading across his face.

"I knew it! Your ability is to control the elemental forces of this world, right!?"

"Fire, lightning, or other elemental attacks have no effect on you."

"Ah……"

Whether it was due to the influence of the monster form or the relief he felt after confirming that Luffy's Nika form was not complete, Im was no longer as easily angered as he was in Pangaea Castle.

In response to Luffy's statement, he simply gave a cold laugh.

"So what if they find out!?"

"My power can rule over everything in this world! Your attacks are ineffective against me!!!"

"Whether it's your Haki, your Devil Fruit ability, or even lightning, fire, or the ocean..."

"Everything in this world is under my control!!!"

"Hahahahahaha!!!!"

It seemed that the thought of Joy Boy's successor being killed by his own dominion made Im unable to stop laughing out loud.

Without Joy Boy's ability to unleash all things, to set everything free and free it from his dominion, no one in the world could defeat him!

"So that's how it is. This is the wish you made with the sun crystal?!"

A look of understanding flashed in Luffy's eyes as he stood in his giant form, and a flash of white lightning disappeared from his eyes.

The next second, he suddenly grinned and looked up at the demonic Im.

"But... you command the power of this world?"

"So, as long as it's not a power from this world, it can hurt you, right!?"

"Not the power of this world?" Im continued to sneer. "Can you do it!?"

"Even if the power is created by the crystallization of the sun, as long as the source of that will originates from this planet, the power formed through that will will never escape my control!!!"

"Give up, Straw Hat Boy!!!"

"You've been fooling around for long enough!!!"

Joy Boy's freedom is able to surpass himself because the willpower accumulated from the formation of the Nika Fruit far exceeds the willpower Im used to strengthen himself.

But Im didn't believe that the accumulated power of wishes from the sun's crystallization over eight hundred years could be more abundant than his own.

What's more, he distributed that so-called Pokémon power to so many people!

In Im's opinion, Luffy's use of the Sun Crystal was a complete waste!

However, he never imagined...

Luffy's power, or rather the power of the Straw Hat Pirates' Pokémon, does not come from the Sun Crystal at all.

It is a truly extraordinary power that transcends this world and truly originates from another world... a wondrous and mighty force!

"Knowing your abilities and characteristics is enough!"

Luffy raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a row of white teeth.

The next moment, lightning, fire, and ice energies erupted from behind Luffy, spiraling and coalescing under his will to form a giant three-colored spear, radiating the power of the three elements.

"Im!"

"If you're so confident, then try taking this attack!!!"

"Triple Attack - Elemental Javelin!!!"

Chapter 548 They'll be anxious!

Rumble rumble rumble...

A terrifying roar descended from the sky like the wrath of a god, and the three-colored spear unleashed a terrifying aura, thrusting towards Im with unparalleled power.

Seeing Luffy use his elemental powers to attack him again, Im's devilish lips curled up wildly, revealing a set of sharp fangs.

"It's no use!!! You're not the real him, your attacks won't hurt me at all!!!"

Im laughed wildly.

But it must be said that he does have the qualifications.

Having lurked for many years since his ancestors, he finally came into contact with the Sun Crystal and had long planned what kind of wish and power he would make before it.

Haki? Devil Fruit power? Natural elements?

All of this was within his control.

It can be said that apart from the Nika Fruit, which is imbued with powerful willpower, nothing in this world can harm him.

He was initially afraid of Luffy's Nika power and dared not confront Luffy directly until the World Government was forced into a corner, at which point he had no choice but to show himself.

What Im didn't expect was...

Luffy's Nikka form is completely different from the Joy Boy he remembers!

His power did not achieve true "freedom"; the power he used was still within his control!

At least……

This is what Im thought at that moment!

Facing the overwhelming force of the elemental spear, Im showed no fear. Instead, he extended a demonic claw covered in scales and reached out to grab Luffy, ready to show him what true despair was!

However, the next second...

Pfft!!!

The blazing elemental spear, upon touching Im's palm, pierced through him without hesitation and then plunged into his shoulder.

boom!!!!!

The elemental spear, imbued with terrifying power, suddenly exploded at this moment, unleashing a deafening roar. The surging thunder, scorching flames, and chilling frost—the three elemental forces—as if preordained, split into three and spread outwards from Im's body.

"How is that possible!?"

Imna's eyes, which resembled the eyes of a reincarnation, suddenly narrowed, and the next moment, endless pain surged from his entire body.

"Ugh!!!"

The intense pain caused Im, who had not been injured for over eight hundred years, to let out a terrible scream.

"Lord Im!!!"
