Thunder is spreading throughout the whole domain of Skypiea as the clashes between Enel and Izan continues. One thunder strike after the other versus a sharp scythe covered in a purple aura on the other side.Enel"s golden ship started breaking down by the pressuring effect of the clashes and even Defying was being sent backwards as the clashes became stronger by the second.
Jiutian was gazing at the fight with her eyebrows raised. "The h.e.l.l…?" She was truly shocked by the pure pressuring effect the fight between Izan and Enel had on the area.
One side of the area was covered in lightning, from the White-White Sea to the heavens. Whereas on the other side, the whole area was covered in a dark purple mist.
In the midst of the battle, Izan had his eyes squinted as he continued fighting without even blinking once. He continued battling with precise movements as he attacked Enel, blocking his thunder strikes and even counter-attacked at times.
Enel had a tough time fighting against Izan, he had never even once met someone that could fight him. He had always relied on his Devil Fruit powers to overpower everyone in his path, destroying everything, it was his Devil Fruit that made him a G.o.d. And, yet now, his powers couldn"t win against Izan.
"ENOUGH!" Enel roared out as more electricity spread around his body and rushed towards Izan.
Izan sneered as a grin slowly appeared on his face, he started spinning his scythe around as he slowly started walking towards Enel. With each step, the pressure Izan was giving off became stronger.
The golden ground started cracking up as Izan walked on top of it. Izan started pushing against Enel"s side filled with thunder with a calm expression as he continued spinning his scythe to counter any attacks coming his way.
Hundreds of lightning was being sent towards Izan, but none of them managed to reach further than the scythe.
"… Enel, I will show you how mistaken you are." Izan started speaking slowly with a deep voice as he continued walking towards Enel. "A G.o.d you say? What I see is only you, a man, using borrowed powers. And yet, you dare to say that you are a G.o.d…?" Izan started mocking him as he chuckled at the end.
Even while speaking, Izan had to face hundreds of lightning abilities coming his way and even Enel"s domain of thunder. Izan felt like he was in the middle of a thunderstorm, but he was facing it calmly as he managed to block every single attack and walk closer towards Enel.
It didn"t take Izan long before he pressed his feet harder towards the ground and started running towards Enel as he raised his scythe up high.
Enel was still in his 200,000,000 million volt form Amaru, he was sensing that he couldn"t keep up much longer. He whispered in a low voice. "… Raigo…"
A ball of electricity suddenly appeared in front of Izan, Enel couldn"t keep up any longer as he had used up all of his powers. He went out of his Amaru form as he stared at Izan facing off his strongest attack – Raigo.
Raigo was an attack which only grew stronger in time and it could even destroy a whole island if given enough time.
Izan didn"t stop at all, he saw that Enel was at his last breath and the ball of electricity was his last attack. Even if it was Enel"s last attack, Izan could clearly sense how dangerous the attack was if he faced it.
"Heh. Is that all?" Still with a chuckle, Izan ran towards the ball of electricity. The reason he was facing it even after knowing that it could be harmful, was because he knew that if he didn"t do so, it would attack his ship Defying with everyone on it.
Izan had his scythe up high as he slashed it downwards with all his might, even the blood veins on arms and face visible. Izan"s eyes turned bloodshot as he felt the strong pressure his scythe was facing, Izan felt his skin being electrocuted and burned.
It began with Izan"s fingers and it crawled upwards towards his arms, shoulders, and entire body. Izan was engulfed inside the ball of electricity.
"ROAR!" A loud roar escaped Izan"s mouth as a purple mist covered his entire body and it slowly ate Enel"s lightning attack – Raigo. Still, Izan felt like his entire body was being showered in thunder over and over.
"…!" Not a single yell escaped Izan"s mouth after his first roar, he held everything inside as he gritted his teeth.
The seconds seemed to last forever for Izan and it felt like an eternity before Izan"s purple aura had swallowed the entirety of Enel"s lightning attack.
It took over half an hour, and what was left of the battlefield was a wrecked golden ship. On one side, Enel was kneeling with his head lowered, he had no strength to even move his muscles. But even so, he had his eyes glued upon the other figure.
What was left of Izan wasn"t much, he had lost all of his clothes during the last attack and his skin was burned. Even so, Izan stood tall as he held his scythe.
Izan started walking towards Enel with firm steps, one after the other, Izan neared Enel. "Blame yourself in thinking that you were the strongest… Remember that there will always be someone stronger than you!" Izan stated with a hoa.r.s.e voice as he raised his scythe and slashed it downwards.
Enel could only helplessly watch as he saw the scythe coming towards his head.
With a single slash of Izan"s scythe, Enel had died with an exhausted expression on his face.
It didn"t take a millisecond before Izan also fell. He had no strength left in his body, he let his body fall without any thoughts. Because, he knew something, and that was before he lost his consciousness, he felt something warm carrying him. Izan closed his eyes without any worries with a small smile on his face.
Jiutian had jumped up from Defying and caught Izan"s falling body. She gave the ship a short glance as it was crashing down from the sky and breaking up into pieces.
She held Izan in her embrace softly as she jumped on Defying, it didn"t take a second before Nojiko and Robin stood by her side as they stared at Izan with a gawking expression.
Nojiko poked Izan"s cheeks softly as she whispered in a low voice. "He sure acts differently when he"s in a fight."
That comment deserved Robin and Jiutian rolling their eyes before the two of them let out small smiles.
"Where are we going to stay for now? On the ship or somewhere else?" Robin asked as she glanced around, only seeing the sea and the falling golden ship. Robin had no interest in material wealth at all.
Jiutian squinted her eyes for a moment before she closed them for two seconds. Jiutian slowly opened her eyes and said casually. "There"s an island over there where Enel came from. I can also sense a city of gold and a mysterious rock…" Jiutian started raising her eyes towards the ending as she couldn"t identify the piece of rock.
"That"s not bad then. We can let Izan recover in his bedroom until he wakes up. We should hopefully be at the island at that time." Nojiko nodded as she carefully took Izan out of Jiutian"s embrace.
Jiutian didn"t resist as she gaze Izan to Nojiko with a slightly displeased expression as she wanted to enjoy more of his embrace.
"You did good, now it"s time for you to rest." Nojiko whispered in a low voice as she carefully brought Izan to his bedroom. She had a smile on her face the entire way as she couldn"t help but stare at Izan"s handsome face.
Nojiko entered Izan"s bedroom silently while having Izan in her embrace, she walked towards his bed and carefully laid him on the bed. Nojiko thought about leaving, but she couldn"t help but stare at Izan"s peaceful expression as he slept.
"…" A yawn slowly escaped Nojiko"s mouth as she got slightly drowsy. Nojiko had a smile on her face as she slowly laid down on the bed with Izan. She hugged Izan"s arm as she stared at Izan"s face as her eyes slowly closed.
