Chapter 84

Wasn't this a one-sided crush?

"Zi—la—"

A bolt of Lei Guang interrupted everyone's thoughts, and the target was precisely—

Sima Di and Luffy.

Ayni Lu still seemed unwilling to believe it, wanting to see with his own eyes whether Luffy truly wasn't afraid of lightning.

And then he truly saw it.

Even,

The several people wearing Mk-5 also absorbed the excess electrical energy.

Sima Di and Luffy, bathed in lightning, looked at Ayni Lu with expressions of confusion—Are you an idiot? You've tried so many times already, and you still don't know we're immune to lightning?

Ayni Lu: "......"

"Aaaah!"

"Die!"

"Thirty million volts? Thunderbird!"

The Golden Trident struck the drum on his right shoulder, releasing the generated lightning from the drum to form a thunderbird over ten meters long above, screeching as it spread its wings and dove again toward the Straw Hat Pirates.

But...

The result was unchanged...

Not that!

"My energy's up to 250?" Chopper exclaimed in delight.

The Mk-5's energy comes from a small Ark reactor, something clearly impossible to manufacture in this world—once depleted, you can only ask Sima Di to make a new one and replace it.

This also meant the group couldn't use the Mk-5 frequently, because except for a few girls, everyone was limited to one creation per month.

But now!

They'd found a new way to charge it!

"I want this Devil Fruit ability!" Nami seized the initiative.

"Ah... that's unfair, I want it too," Usopp weakly said.

The others said nothing.

Those who didn't need Devil Fruits were already Devil Fruit users.

Sima Di just laughed.

Well then!

We've barely started fighting, and you're already fighting over the spoils?

It seems they need a good lesson!

Ayni Lu...

Isn't weak at all!

Do you think "Strongest Natural Type" is a joke?

16. The Powerful Ayni Lu! The Importance of the Finishing Blow!

Seeing Usopp and Nami already discussing how to divide the Gura Gura no Mi, Sima Di thought it necessary to teach them a lesson.

And to do that was simple:

"Zi—la—"

Ayni Lu appeared before Usopp, the Golden Trident crackling with lightning stabbed into the Mk-5; though its soft gold material couldn't pierce through, it still sent Usopp flying.

Nami reacted, raising her palm to fire a palm cannon, but before she could fully charge it, a trident strike smashed her palm open, followed by a kick that sent her flying.

Both lay on the ground, emitting electronic inhaling sounds.

It could be seen,

The spot struck by the Mk-5 was deeply dented.

The Mk-5 was a prototype developed for emergency wear, its armor plates intentionally thin for lightness—sufficient against ordinary people, but woefully inadequate against the monstrous physiques of the One Piece pirates.

"You finally show yourself, damn bastard!" Luffy roared as he charged forward.

He'd assumed Ayni Lu, being countered by him, would be easy to handle.

But Ayni Lu already knew Luffy was immune to lightning—would he keep using lightning?

He turned into lightning, dodging Luffy's punch, then thrust the Golden Trident straight for the heart!

Luffy instinctively tried to dodge,

But Ayni Lu's Golden Trident changed direction first, sweeping toward the direction Luffy was fleeing—making it look to outsiders as if Luffy had charged into it himself.

"Puch—"

Though the Golden Trident's material was soft, its edge remained razor-sharp—it slashed a deep gash across Luffy's chest!

Blood gushed like a fountain toward Ayni Lu's face, but before it could reach him, he had already vanished, reappearing beside Luffy, raising the Golden Trident high, ready to finish him off.

"Not a chance!"

Sanji appeared beside him, his clumsy spinning kick still mid-motion when Ayni Lu dodged, smashed him with the trident, sending him crashing into Zoro's slash—forcing Zoro to cut away.

Usopp's snipe arrived in time, forcing Ayni Lu to abandon his pursuit and instead swing his trident to knock Usopp flying.

"Damn it! What are you messing around for?!" Zoro roared.

"You're the one attacking randomly without targeting properly!" Sanji shouted.

It was just a single encounter,

and the Straw Hat Pirates' main fighters had all taken wounds.

Even though his strongest Rumble-Rumble Fruit attack had been "crippled," Enel could still rely on it for high-speed movement, paired with the foresight granted by his Mantra, enough to crush everyone.

And that was,

him still in a weakened state from the Appraisal Technique—if he were at full strength......

"Boom boom boom—"

A flash of lightning streaked by, and the charging Wapol was blasted to the ground.

Facing the Shandians, he was still a "God"!

Now looking at Sima Di,

he had somehow already made his way to the edge of the Shandians' ranks, watching with great interest as Enel pummeled the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Tch! Serves you right for being so arrogant—now you've suffered for it." Sima Di shook his head.

"Indeed, underestimating the enemy before battle is a grave taboo," a voice agreed.

Sima Di turned his head,

and saw Crocus also shaking his head, with even Laboon brought along beside him.

"Hm? What are you doing here?" Sima Di asked, puzzled.

Even if you weren't joining the fight, Laboon has mastered intermediate Armament Haki—why not let her fight either?

"Weren't you thinking the same—let them learn a lesson?" Crocus saw right through it.

Sima Di pondered for a moment......

then turned to look at the Shandian warriors and asked: "Those God Soldiers are just lying there—aren't you going to deal with them?"

The Appraisal Technique was undeniably powerful,

aside from Enel who could still fight, everyone else was sprawled on the ground wailing.

"Shandian warriors do not strike those who have no power to resist!"

"Since they have already lost their fighting ability, our only opponent is Enel!"

"Have your people step aside—what comes next is the Shandians' battle!"

These Shandian warriors were also "principled folk," apparently lacking the fine quality of "kicking someone when they're down," and launched a "death charge" at Enel.

So would Enel hold back?

He raised his hand, ready to give them a full round of electrotherapy!

But then he abruptly elementalized, transforming into lightning and vanishing.
